He did get to the second level. The first level given Carolinas o-line is getting to the LOS. Carolina has the worst run blocking line in the NFL - according to a metric that looks at defensive penetration. And I think they lead that by a goodly margin.Â
Stewart had 8 carries for minus 4. Which makes his previous game - 18 carries 21 yards, look good.Â
Carolina is going to need to rework their running game.

Also, Ertz game was solid, but his missed blocking assignment in the 4th quarter almost cost the Eagles the game. So the 2 TDs may delight fantasy league players, the missed blocking assignment that led to a critical sack will not be overlooked by the staff.
