Stewart’s Achilles tendon injury kept him from practicing most Wednesdays this season, and even with the injury problems he was the featured back at the end of the season, when DeAngleo Williams was out with an ankle injury of his own. Stewart was a large part of Carolina winning three of their last four.

Injuries have been no stranger to Jonathan Stewart, the 13th overall selection in the 2008 NFL Draft out of Oregon. He has overcome those injuries time and time again. He has displayed incredible toughness and determination to play through these injuries and produce on a consistently high level.

Stewart's injuries are certainly not a positive, but his ability to play through them is. Jonathan Stewart has set franchise records already and if he is 100 percent healthy, the sky seems to be the limit.

The 2010 season will be Stewart's third full season in the NFL and an injury-free season would seem to spell playoffs for the Carolina Panthers, who in 2010 will have the league’s 26th rated schedule in terms of difficulty.

An injury-free season would also seemingly mean Stewart will continue to break records and shred defenses. With Stewart and Williams anchoring the backfield and seemingly more stability at quarterback if Matt Moore continues to take snaps, the playoffs appear to be a well within reach.

here's to stewart being 100% in 2010...:cheers2:

Has he missed even a single game since he's been in the NFL?

nope.

he missed only 2 games in college.

i have to find the article, but i don't believe he missed time in high school either. questions of his durabiltiy came up because supposed he didn't always play full games in high school...

...something about rushing for 100-200 yards and mutiple TDs by halftime on a regular basis.

the article made his high school career sound like a greek mythology story.

...then again, he was ranked as one of the top high school RBs in the nation at the time.

don't you write for bleacherreport?

i almost got the job covering the panthers for cbs, but at the 11th hour a guy in indy lost his job and came in and shanghai'd it from me.

they gave me a check for 500 bucks as an apology and offered to make me a featured writer. I ain't working for free though.

of course the guy who got the atlanta job was a high school grad without a college degree so obviously i chose the wrong team.

      What's your confidence level in Canales?

      Getting any level of competition and cohesion out of this roster is a job well done.

      Not sure if anyone else is watching this D1-AA championship game but I don't know if these receivers have NFL athleticism but they got HANDS. These boys can flat out CATCH. This is a good football game.

      People on here are wrong all the time. I mean some of our best draft picks people didn't like initially due to various reasons. On the other hand there have been a multitude of decisions made by people who are paid very well to know what they're doing that some Panthers fans here saw as a mistake a mile away. Well look man let's put all the chips on the table. Because your grievance is particularly about the QB position. The Panthers have had only two long term starting franchise QB's in 30 years. Thirty years. Two. This fanbase has seen a hell of a lot of poor to mediocre QB play and even short lived fairy tales like the Kyle Allen win streak or going back even further Matt Moore. As far as Darnold and Mayfield goes I think they are certainly overachieving but I don't think anyone here that was critical of either of them were wrong. They both had a heaping portion of humble pie here that has served them greatly now. Mayfield in particular because when he first got here he was still a cocky idiot. Darnold at least kept his head down and did his job for the most part. But I have a hard time seeing either of them going far in the playoffs because in the midst of some of their best games I've seen the same flawed QB's. Darnold is no Nick Foles let's be real with one another here. Baker specifically looked like hot garbage against our defense in Charlotte recently. And those best teams in the playoffs have all that on film and damn well know about it too if average fans like us can see it.
