Despite last weeks horendous pick in Ray Rice, I am here to show my worth this week. Jonathan Stewart: RB Carolina Panthers
(photo from cache.daylife.com).
He's really starting to come into his own, the rookie out of Oregon has been solid thus far in the first four weeks. He has 197 yards with four rushing TD's. He has been splitting time with DeAngelo Williams but has been receiving the bulk of the carries while inside the opponents red zone - Stewart has 18 rushes and four TD's compared to Williams who has two rushes and zero TD's.
Another reason to start him is he has been lighting up the scoreboard in the last three weeks. I already mentioned his four TD's, but each has come in the past three games.
If the previous reasons weren't enough to consider picking up Stewart, consider this, the Panthers play the Chiefs. The Chiefs are arguably one of the worst teams in the league, especially on defense. Its defense has given up an average of 176.5 rushing yards, third worst in the league and is ranked 20th in points allowed and 29th in total defense. To put it simply, Stewart should run all over the Chiefs.
Week Four Pick: Ray Rice 1 carry for 0 yards

Not the best pick again man, but don't worry, I made the same mistake and started him on my fantasy team. You can never seem to tell if the Panthers are going to play more of him or Williams, its pretty annoying actually.
all things considered, it was a lot better then last week, so it was a win for me.
