Jonathan Stewart (1 Viewer)

Any projections??How have the goal line carries been getting split lately?
108 carries, 471 yards, 4 TDs. Stewart has been getting (average) 10.5 carries/game. The Panthers have been running the ball about 29.5 times/game. I would expect the Panthers to run more, since its obvious that their passing game isn't going to win many games.Stewart has been getting about 35% of the carries, and I don't expect that to change, so that gives him about 12 carries a game.Neither RB is "THE" goal-line RB, although DeAngelo has been getting more goal-line looks this year. DWill had 9 rushes inside the 5 yard line, for 4 TDs. Stewart has 6 rushes, for 1 TD.Of Stewart's 4 TDs, one was from 26 yards, and 1 from 10 yards, so you can't expect him to get goal-line plunges. Longer rushing TDs are harder to predict, so I predicted the same amount as he scored in the 1st half of the year.Stewart is, (IMO) unless an injury happens, not very useful for this year. You can't really try to play match-ups-against the Bills who SUCK against the run, he had 7 rushes for 25 yards & no TDs; and against the Cardinals, who were one of the better teams against the run, he had 17 for 87 yards and 2 TDs. And if you start him every week, you have to eat his stinker days 25 yards rushing, -1 yards rushing, etc.

Stewart owner here (insurance). Good writeup.
 
Carolina's run schedule is ugly going forward. I would guess his performance will decrease from here unless D-will goes down.
9 @NO -10 Atl - 11 Mia - 12 @NYJ - 13 TB - 14 @NE - 15 Min - 16 @NYG Rough playoff schedule, but not too bad outside of that.
 
I have stewart on my team and he seems to kill me one way or the other....I play him,he doesnt do anything...I sit him(last week vs arizona) and he goes off.....I'm not playing him again unless someone goes down with injury

 
In the last 4 games Stewart has gotten around 40% of the touches at RB, but about 55% of the touches in the red zone. He's had more touches in the red zone in 3 of the 4 games. Raw numbers he's averaged 15 touches and 4 scoring opportunites a week. Can't complain about that.
