DeAngelo Williams 217 yards from a 1,000

Yeah, I think we'll see DeAngelo and Stewart get a lot more of the rushes next season than Cam. Chud shunned the running backs during the first half of the season, and Cam did too much of the running. He should never be the leading rusher in ANY GAME when you have two 1,000 yard backs on the team, and they're only getting around 12 total rushes per game. It wasn't until the Redskins game that Williams and Stewart were used appropriately, and then Chud still abandoned it too early in some of those losses after the Bye.

If he stays healthy next season, he should reach 1,000 unless they decide to give Stewart a lot more of the carries, which wouldn't be inconceivable.

yup. i see cam passing less next season due to our #1 rushing attack in the league. only time i see cam being the leading rusher is against teams like San Fran because they absolutely shut down the run. Cam can scramble against any defense

Not really a question directed at you. I am kinda curious and thinking out loud. How many teams have passed for 4000 yards and rushed for 2000 in a year?

One thing I'm not sure people understand is that for team passing yards they deduct sack yardage, so even though Newton will top 4,000 he will also need to rise above our sack total as well. Right now he'd have to get over 300 yards to do that. It's attainable but the way our offense has been clicking Newton has not been the primary focus in terms of passing the ball.

Even then it's not really a huge accomplishment correlated to success or anything.

I look back and it seems like the first quarter of the year opponents wanted to take away the run and make Cam throw - well, several high yardage passing games showed that Cam could do that - as opponents shifted to trying to manage the passing defense, you saw an increase in the running game. As the season progressed - The offense grew, the play book has turned a few more pages, the timing between QB and recievers came along - now we see a "peek" of the future. The last 3 weeks, we have shown everyone a taste of whats coming their way next year.

Full season to use all of the weapons/plays/schemes that the offense has built up this year - you will see higher rushing totals for DWill and Stewart next year. The mere threat of Cam pulling that option hand off and running it himself opens the lanes for the RB's to tear big chunks. Agree Cam will probably rush less designed attempts, but can't say the yardage won't still pile up for him. If he can bust a designed option scramble for 49yds, then you have to always consider it can happen any time. The attempts will be reduced IMO.

I also think you see an overall increase in passing as well - a healthy running attack opens the passing - an vice versa.

Only prediction I am confident of is:

NFC South opponents DC's will devote lots of preparations for 2 x Carolina games this off season. If they don't, they will be home watching Panther games next Jan.

Let's just beat the saints ass on their home field.

That would be cool

This.

and its just, "217 yards from 1,000".....if you keep the "a", you are saying "217 yards from a one thousand.". that makes no fuging sense. #sorrycouldnthelpitsometimesyouguysarejustridiculous

So I am not about looking back but looking forward to what we are going to be, seeing 2011 as the harbinger of the future and the team that is going to be competitive in the division, conference, and league consistently. At least that is what I hope for next year with this year almost in the books.

so glad the past is over.. let's hope Rivera can bring consistency to this franchise, finally.. pretty evident the last guy couldn't...

      Lance Zierlein's Position Rankings 2026 Draft

      By rmoneyg35 · Posted

      That makes me wonder, how many starting tackles in the NFL and/or elite tackles have short arms? I feel like there’s probably lots of tackles that end up being drafted in later rounds because they had short arms or didn’t have the physical tools.     also why not draft a tackle in the later rounds that we could move to guard or center if they fail, instead of drafting a center? If we draft a center we know they aren’t going to play tackle but if you draft a tackle they could end up playing any of the 3 positions, look at BC for example. It feels like it’s a better decision to draft a tackle in later rounds than a center.

      Damn back to 10th. I only caught the last 5 minutes but some of those 3's were horrible lol. In that close of game you can't be launching those many hail mary's when you could be chipping away from the foul line. I guess no one wanted to get in the paint and didn't trust the refs to give them the calls maybe? Gonna watch the highlights to get a better idea of the flow of the game

      I agree.  The Big 12 is a good conference, and he is the swinging dick in that conference.  If Bill Self retires, that sets Kansas back a bit, and Arizona moves even further ahead as the best team in that conference.  Arizona can crush west coast recruiting with USC / UCLA no longer being relevant for LA kids, and Gonzaga not being able to compete moneywise.   If Lloyd comes here, he will be second fiddle to Duke every single year in NIL and recruits.  Not to mention the entire SEC and Big East for kids who want to stay in those regions to play. This is why I keep saying go get Mark Few.  Has proven he can do more with less from an X / O perspective but can also recruit All American players and compete at a high level. He's a god at Gonzaga, but for $9M he'd make the move as that's 4x what he's making at Gonzaga, and makes him the highest paid coach in the country.
