Carolina: DeAngelo Williams or Jonathan Stewart

It's only week three but do you agree with John Fox?

Coach John Fox confirmed that DeAngelo Williams will remain the Panthers' starting tailback over Jonathan Stewart, at least for the time being.
"In my mind, both backs are of starting ability," Fox said. Stewart is easily outdoing Williams (5.4 YPC to 4.0; two TDs to zero) and remains the better fantasy RB, but is subject to some down weeks as long as he's a "backup."

They both get around the same amount of carries but Deangelo has been around longer so I assume he knows the offense better. Really, it won't be a big deal unless jon or deangelo complain and make it a big deal.

IMO this is similar to what the cowboys did last year with jones and barber.

I'm just glad Foster is gone. He owned Atlanta.

IIRC Fox is using a Thunder (Stewart) and Lightning (Williams) approach to the Carolina RB position.

Jim Fassel should've copyrighted that when he had the chance.

That's usually how it works. At least Hall owned Smitty.

2 rb sets work well (MN) that way when the def is wore out you have fresh legs. If you look at MN stats the games AD is immortal it is because Taylor has 50+ in the first half and wears out the defense.
