Stewart or Goodson, who's starting today? (1 Viewer)

We know Goodson missed several days of practice because the birth of his child, but he's active.

Stewart is healthy too.

What can we expect load wise today?

 
I think they'll both do well but Stewart ran the ball better last week and combine Seattle's weak run defense and Steve Smith not playing I can see a lot of running plays for the Panthers.

My predictions:

Stewart 20 carries, 110 yards, 1 recep, 15 yards, 1 touchdown

Goodson 15 carries, 70 yards, 5 recep, 40 yards, 1 touchdown

edit to adjust number of carries

edit2: forget about Steve Smith not playing. I heard that he wasn't playing on the radio but I believe they were talking about NYG Smith. I still think Seattle will run the ball a lot.

GoodsonFrom Rotoworld:Mike Goodson is listed as the starter ahead of Jonathan Stewart for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.Goodson keep his starter's title even though he missed a bunch of practice this week to be with his newborn baby. We're expecting a pretty even timeshare, with Stewart the better bet for a touchdown.Source: Steve Reed on Tw
 
Stewrt looks pretty darn good. Goodson looked good too but hes only got 3 carries . 1 did go for a TD. Lets see if the carries even out a bit.

 
Looks like there giving Goodson no carries anymore . None really since the first series. They put Sutton in last drive to give Stewart a break. Guess the Goodson train end here. Oh well was a good ride.

Not really a good ride, considering he's been on my bench for three weeks until I finally started him.
 
Well heres the answer. He was injured and is out of the game.

Mike Goodson, RB, Carolina Panthers Sunday 12/5, 5:21 PM CT

Mike Goodson left the game at Seattle in the third quarter with an undisclosed injury, according to Steve Reed's twitter page.

Our View: Goodson was injured on a kickoff return. No word on the severity of the ailment, but we'll provide updates as they become available.

 
Mike Goodson - RB - Panthers

Mike Goodson left Sunday's loss to the Seahawks in the fourth quarter with a shoulder injury.

It's unclear if Goodson is really hurt or if he is taking the rest of the day off as the Panthers are down 31-14. He appeared to get banged up in the third quarter on a kickoff return, but later returned to the game. Goodson played far behind Jonathan Stewart anyway, rushing three times for 19 yards and catching no passes.

Dec. 5 - 7:11 p.m. ET

 
Watched the whole game. Seemed like almost all of the rushes were up the middle (Stewart), rarely to the outside (Goodson). And why not? Almost every run up the middle gains 6 against Seattle lately.

Goodson did get dinged, but continued to play later, even returned a KO for TD which was called back.

Seahawks got up by 2 scores and it was mostly Stewart rushing, with Terrell Sutton getting the leftovers, and looking decent.

This was the first Panther game I've seen this year, but I'd probably avoid Goodson if Stewart remains healthy. Looks like he's the main guy with Goodson getting a couple runs here and there (runs to the outside as he's their speed guy)

After his injury, he came back for one play, that kick-off return.

 
Mike Goodson - RB - Panthers

Mike Goodson suffered a sprained AC joint in his right shoulder during Sunday's loss to the Seahawks.

Goodson, who picked up the injury while returning a second-half kickoff, said he is sore but "should be all right." We'll see. Either way, Goodson was playing way behind Jonathan Stewart on offense before the injury. Stewart will be the bell cow going forward.

I am starting to feel the same. Stewart could be a great play for fantasy playoffs.

Definitely worth a claim if he's still available. His matchup next week against Atlanta isn't favorable, and his date with Pittsburgh in week 17 definitely screams for the bench, but that week 16 Arizona game could win a lot of fantasy playoff matches. Even in the other two games, you have to like his potential as a flex, simply seeing as he's the only factor in the Carolina offense.
