Williams or Stewart?

i'm not so sure williams will be the "starter". remember stewart had a handful of nagging injuries throughout the season which definitely sank his carries (especially at the goal line) later in the season.

we are blessed with 2 capable starting caliber runningbacks and it would be foolish to have one receiving significantly more attention than the other. imagine if LT and Mike Turner split carries during LT's prime, LT probably wouldn't be partially burned out and Turner wouldn't be the freshest pair of 6 year vet legs in the league killing the panthers twice a year.

what I'm saying is we may very well have a special backfield combination that's never been seen/properly utilized in the history of the NFL, and we should try and make something truly amazing out of it.

I think both break 1000 yards this year, but Dwill still will be the top. I think Jstew will eventually be a better back than Dwill, but this is still a few years away. One thing that I need to see from Jstew though, is that fire that Dwill seems to have. I think he is one of the most determined players I have ever seen play the game. If Jstew ever gets that fire in him, he will be unstoppable.

    • Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.
    • Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.
    • You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
