Where does the 2011 Panthers rushing offense rank all-time?

Anybody who thinks that we just invested $50+m and a 2nd round pick in 3 integral pieces of our rushing attack, to heave the ball 40+ times a game, is functionally retarded.

2011 - we gave DeAngleo a monster deal. Our RBs then proceeded to rush the ball a franchise low number of times. Name a team in the NFL whose RBs had less rush attempts in 2011?

As a rookie Newton averaged 32 pass a attempts per game, factor in sacks they were asking him to do it roughly 34 times a game. In addition, he ran slightly over 7 times a game. So last year, over 40 times a game the ball was in the QBs hands asking him to make a play.

After the first two games last season you would get crucified here for suggesting that the team needed to run more...people just wanted to see Newton throw for 400 yards every game.

Now you get crap thrown at you if you don't agree that the team needs so much invested in running backs.

crap is flying both ways and i'm prety sure we're all wading in it on a daily basis around here.

victim stuff is weak.
