Has Stewart killed our running game?

That's my question right now. Before Stewart came back off of the PUP list. Our running game was doing pretty good with Dwill and Tolbert. But since Stewart has come back. Our run game has gone down hill in recent weeks. Tolbert is seeing very few touches. While Dwill has gotten a good deal of carries. Since Stewart has come back. He has split carries with Tolbert. I just feel since Tolbert has seen a lot less carries since Stewart come back. Our running game has suffered. I love Stewart and all. But this team was doing better when Dwill and Tolbert was getting most if not all the carries before Stewart came back. My question to people has Stewart coming back cause this team running to suffer in recent weeks or is it the play calling and the oline?

There is such a thing as too much of a timeshare. RB is a rhythm position. I could see it. It's time to hurt one of these guy's feelings and unless Deangelo gets rid of the tunnel vision he's had the past few weeks, it probably needs to be him.

I was writing my post before you posted this. I couldn't agree more. DWill is a nice change of pace from Tolbert, But DWill also seems to shy away from contact these days. Also JStews contract makes him alot more likely to be the one they keep if they were going to cut one

    • I hate to burst anyones bubble but this guy played 188 total defensive snaps in three years but 802 special teams snaps. If we do kick the tires, it's probably gonna be for that latter part.
    • I do believe that Evero gets canned before the end of the season and Capers takes over the D. I think the stage is set for Evero to fall on the sword for a 4-7 win season.  Not saying it would be a set up but I do think if that transpires, the seat under DC might start getting pretty warm, rightly or wrongly. That's my read on Tepper. I am not at all excited nor am I dreading anything. I just have extremely low expectations so I am just waiting to see what this revision of the roster looks like.  I FEEL like we are better on paper than last season's team but I wouldn't be remotely shocked if we were as bad or worse. Again, I do think this is the 2nd worst roster in franchise history overall. What will really make me happy is for some of the big questions to finally be answered(Bryce, Ikey, Horn, etc). I would like to see a real expansion of our core player pool(basically just D. Brown currently). I want to see a couple of hits in free agency and a couple in the draft. If we accomplish those things, I have faith that we are at least moving in the right direction after many, many years doing the opposite.
