williams and stewart next year

The carries will go to the hot hand just like they did last year, but Williams will still get the majority of the carries. I'll stick with the 55-45/60-40 percent range.

williams got most of the carries because by mid season stewart was nicked up. fox thought it wise to save the rookie for the playoff stretch.

up until mid season, williams had more but only produced marginally better than stewart.

And that's exactly why I think they can match or even exceed last year's numbers: because Williams especially didn't catch fire until midway through the season.

Then again, we're going up against some tough defenses next year.

Williams had 120 Carries going into the bye week while Stewart had 96 carries.

Williams ended up with 273 carries on the season, while Stewart had 183 carries on the season.

Stewart had 92 carries over the last 8 games, 4 less then he did over the first 8. Williams had 153 carries in the last 8 games, 33 more then he did over the first 8. Fox went with the hot hand and the carries were split 55-45/60-40 in just about every game.

I think they exceed what they did last season as long as Delhomme and the passing attack can keep defenses honest.

    • There are people on this forum that just want to see a lot of passing yards....number go up. That's all it is, really. They are thirsting for a 350-400 yard game. The idea that Jameis Winston is going to come in and play like a star and lead us to wins is ludacris. He's the 3rd fuging string for a 2-5 team and has played horrible for years now. Sure, passing numbers will go up but you'll also get a lot of dumb plays, pick 6's, and incompletions en route to a frustrating bad offensive performance, just in a different way. I think these people are yearning for another Delhomme situation, and the odds of that happening are very very slim. It's way more likely Howell or Jameis comes in and looks like Jack Plummer or Andy Dalton did in the preseason. There just isn't that much good quarterbacking in this league right now. And if we draft another QB in the first round, there is a good chance they bust. It's not a guaranteed carrot. The reality is, as mediocre as Bryce has been, the risk of bringing someone else in in-season and releasing Bryce becuase you aren't happy with his current performance is staggeringly high. Don't want to re-up his contract and search for a solution in the offseason? Sure, I'm on board. Bryce hasn't been good enough to warrant a second contract. But It is very. very unlikely that bringing someone else in midseason is going to give this team more wins.
    • I told somebody that today, the old QB adage. If you have two you don't have one. People forget when we had Double Trouble, there still was a clear edge of carry volume going to D-Lo until his departure. NFL is cut throat and if it takes us eventually bailing on Chuba to feature Rico, that decision may have to be made. 
    • Exactly zero people on the coaching staff or front office are hoping the Panthers get utterly destroyed. This is why people can't take the constant Bryce bashing seriously. Get a clue
