DG has to know his job is safe for at least 2 years unless he pulls a McAdoo. So why not bite the bullet and cut Stewart; it was a mistake.

I’m not too concerned about Stewart. He’s just a small piece to the bigger puzzle. Barkley is and will be the main horse. Stewart or whomever were to replace him is barely a factor. He’s a #3 RB not a #2 WR or anything. He can get the bulk of the carries when the game is out of reach.

It sounds like some here think that head coaching best practices require Shurmur to say:
"..yes Steward does suck. He is not a shadow of himself and my GM wasted valuable cap dollars in bringing him here."
Good luck with that approach fellas...

That is the truth. There is no word salad in the truth. Let's get back to Giants football, couldn't agree more.

Maybe Stewart has something left in the tank... call it wishful thinking... because he is not going anywhere with the coach backing him.

Then as I've stated in a different thread, Shurmur is no brighter than Mcadont, and you can expect another miserable season with a HC with that kind of mindset.

As long as the pecking order starts with Saquon/Gallman, I'm not so concerned. Stewart should get very few carries after those two once real games start.

If DG wants Stewart to not only stay put, but get touches over Gallman, then there's really nothing Shurmur can do about it.

that's Shurmur 1st indication that he is somewhat perplexed. How can he think Stewart is still of value? After watching Stewart even in Carolina the last couple of years anyone can see hes done. The only contribution he can make is his veteran knowledge.
After that statement by Shurmur, don't be surprised if Stewart is here after final cuts.

Well if DG is coaching the team not Shurmur this organization has issues above and beyond all the ones we already know of.

Stewart has a cap hit of 3.925M with a dead cap of 3.325M. He's not going anywhere.

This is all premature, sorry. Again, this is a guy with about 10 preseason carries to his name this season and we're sure he's done? I don't see why he's immune to the "wait and see" leash we want to extend to other guys who have seemingly underperformed this preseason. There's a slight chance that Pat Shurmur knows a little more than a bunch of armchair QB's. My bad, someone has to counterpoint around here.

Webb was trash after the first season game. Limited preseason action isn't the means to make these decisions. The coaches are seeing these guys everyday outside of meaningless games. If the HC tells you he thinks Stewart is still a good back, I'll take his word for it until some regular season results or the cut down shows otherwise.

Please highlight the holes you saw Stewart trying to run through Friday night. He fumbled as he was being engulfed by the Jets "front 8". You can't hit a hole that doesn't exist with authority.

Let's see. There were two other preseason games where he hasn't done a thing, but get stood up or tackled from behind. Why did you just single out the last game and not the other two? Are you not seeing every other back on this team outperform him? You honestly don't see this?

Keep in mind he is the HC for all the current players and for all future FA signings

Are you not seeing every other back on this team outperform him? You honestly don't see this? He hasn't carried the ball enough to cement any opinion in my mind. And that's exactly what I said in the first place. I don't disagree that he's looked poor so far, but that doesn't mean he a wasted signing and garbage either. If he's a cut down or looks poor in the regular season I'll be the first to call it what it is. Shurmur claims faith in Stewart's abilities, that means something to me. If you want to disregard or scoff at that it's your prerogative.

Shurmur said he believes he can, not that he has played at a high level.
