Nate Chandler, DeAngelo Williams to Start

One question? Who has more success historically against Atlanta, Williams or Stewart?  I am just asking.  Is this a decision based on opponent, who is healthy or something else.

 

Sorry for the interruption.  Go back to your constant Rivera bashing...... 

You have to go back a few years to find any good running games for either against Atlanta. I guess you could argue that Williams excels when he can get into space and he might be able to do that against ATL.

 

Otherwise I have no clue what the coaches are doing.

 

But frankly him starting doesn't even mean he gets the majority of carries.

I stick by my theory....

Jim Skipper pushes for Williams to remain the primary RB.

When both were healthy in 2011 and the start of 2012 Stewart was the favored RB. Stewart was leaned on more. More snaps in 2011 than any in the division and Williams officially benched in name also in 2012. Then 28 got hurt.

Then Skipper returned in 13 and Williams is the favored RB with both healthy to present day. It doesn't pass the eye test so it has to be pure favoritism. When things don't pass the eye test there is always a reason. Ron IMO leaves it up to the coaches. Which is a flaw of his with the O

How does playing a hurt Cam help him? Or making a hurt Cam stay on the field for a full game? There is a reason he is pressing players into action.

Maybe because he's dumb?  Maybe because he won't admit to being horribly wrong?  He refuses to accept the fact that JStew is the far superior back, and should be his go-to in most situations.  He also continues to start Chandler, when he's on his back with his legs sprawled out, more often than a cheap hooker.
