2019 Carson: 1500yds or 15 tds?

nwHawk · Jan 17, 2019

We all agree Chris Carson is an absolute stud and he had numerous beast like runs this year. Davis is likely to play elsewhere next season which may give Carson a few more touches (along with Penny).

How good was Carson this year.... 1,151 yards, 4.7 ypc and 9 TDs. What about next year?

I think they still platoon pretty substantially between Penny and him with a good mix of Prosise or McKissic, would like to see Davis back also he has a different style and that dart shiftiness.

I'm very high on Carson but I'd expect Penny's share of the workload to increase in 2019. Perhaps something like 60/40 Carson/Penny on 1st/2nd and then McKissic/Prosise as the third down back. I also wouldn't be surprised if Penny gets a shot at the starting kick returner job with Lockett's probable increased targets on offense.

I can't vote because I would select none. Penny takin this job over. Deal with it!

So you are a Penny fan rather than a Seahawks fan then? :roll:

Doubt it, unless Carson gets hurt.

Penny has some explosion, but from what we saw this year he doesn't look like the physical back Pete wants for this offense.

I honestly like the run game just fine, the two headed monster run attack keeps both backs fresher and healthier. We were spoiled with Lynch, that type of production and durability is rare.

Now I would like to see Carson integrated more into the passing and screen game. Pete keeps telling us he has great hands, but we don't see it in games.

Optimism: The mark of a true fan.

I seem to recall IATS hilariously telling me that Carson was inexplicably loved by Pete for only reasons Pete understands and that Carson was in fact a bum charity case.

Carson is a top 10 back in this league, but I expect Penny to build on what he started to look like in the latter half of the year and break more chunk runs as a different element.

chris98251 · Jan 18, 2019

I expect a much more Thunder and Lighting approach with both health next year.

DynoHawk · Jan 18, 2019

1500 yds would be a nice individual accomplishment. 15 tds would be a great contribution to the TEAM

Well, he doesn't have a choice. Lacy is gone.

hawkfan68 · Jan 18, 2019

He may be able to accomplish both. He missed two 2 1/2 games in 2018 season. He may have been real close to 1500 yds had he been healthy all season. He finished with 9 TDs in 2018. So both are very doable in 2019 (should he stay healthy all season).

Me too. I think Carson and Penny will take 85% of the touches.

Penny will be better this year. Hopefully he picks up Carson's conditioning regimen. I like McKissic and Davis over Prosise. The few snaps that Prosise played this season didn't look good...

raisethe3 · Jan 19, 2019

1500 yards seem do-able. I picked that and perhaps 15tds as well!

Oh come on! Prosise can't possibly be back next year.

2019 Carson: 1500yds or 15 tds?

More realistic for Carson next year?

1500 yards

15 TDs

5.0+ ypc
