![]() What? You're telling me that a football team that primarily rushes the ball currently has one of the best performing wide receivers in the league on their roster? How is that a possibility? Now take a deep breath and try to think this one through: ![]() 1 wide receiver, currently has 958 yards this season. ![]() But the pass game is far from being shut down. ![]() This season with the Panthers, the ball has been thrown less often. If the ball is run more often, the ball would get thrown less often, thereby shutting down the pass, right? The answer to that question is, for whatever reason, no. This seems like it wouldn't make any logical sense. John Fox's running game has finally arrived in Carolina and it is doing wonderful things for the team.Īs mentioned previously, Fox has promised fans that a strong run game opens up the pass game. ![]() The team's rushing duo, Jonathan Stewart and DeAngelo Williams, have put up over 1400 yards on the ground and have combined for 19 total rushing touchdowns. So far this season, the Panthers have won every game in which they were able to put up 100-plus yards on the ground (save the second Atlanta game), and have lost every game in which they have failed to pick up those 100 rushing yards. ![]()
