Carolina Panthers: State of the run game

The Panthers have some talented folks that comprise their backfield. Jonathan Stewart starting at running back and Mike Tolbert leading the way from the Fullback position. When these two guys are healthy, they present defenses with very hard charging runs from scrimmage or short passes coming out of the backfield.

Stewart was drafted in 2008 in the first round and was the thirteenth pick overall. Last season was a decent season for the 8 year running back. With 809 yards rushing, 3 touchdowns, 25 receptions for another 181 yards and another touchdown.

He can be very productive when he is healthy.
