#Panthers LB Thomas Davis says team "flat out isn't playing good football."

#Panthers LB Thomas Davis said last year players swarmed and made up for mistakes. Not happening now. Honesty was refreshing.

[LUUUUUKE]

So the intensity is missing. That's what happens when you let certain players walk in FA

At least TD is being honest. Now, if we could only ask him who the missing piece is

[fieryprophet]

Players are are playing reactive and not proactive. I think teams have figured out that if you can slow play our defense you can use their aggressiveness against them, and now the defense is too worried about giving up big plays to play downhill. They just need to get it out of their system.

Mitchell and DeCoud would be a lot better than Harper, DeCoud

Isn't it funny that the player I was referring to was mentioned directly after? Coincidence? I think not

Not a missing piece. TD played much better last year than this year.

Luke too.

Star, CJ, etc too.

Only two players IMO that look better or at least on par from last are Short and Klein.

Hardy didn't cause this....this is the same D we saw late in the Tampa game. McCown being so bad early on made people think this D was dominant and they completely overlooked what D was on the field late against Tampa

Lol I just didnt quote you I seen what you had said. Its true, Mitchell was the attitude we needed

Cam Newton & DeCoud is a lot better than Derek Anderson & DeCoud.

Ya'll need to stop acting like money just flows freely in the NFL. Pitt gave Mitchell $25m guaranteed. And he's playing like a complete bum, just like when he was in Oak. He's not good.

He played well in our system, a lot of players are good system players and Mitchell happens to be one. On top of that, he was a good inspirational player. He isn't great, but I think he is what's lacking on this team.

Better than Roman fuging Harper he is an ex Saint and ex Tide player both teams I hate and he sucks, not good. Mitchell got overpaid but they should have figured out a way to keep him here and if he played like he did last year this year with us 5 Mill  a year would be fine with the way he played.

Ah yes, the age old Pittsburgh gave him 25 million argument!

Riddle me this batman, does he even get offered 25 million if we lock him up during the season????? If the FO would have extended his contract in season, LIKE THEY SHOULD HAVE, then Mitchell would still be here! He would have never even been able to test FA and he would have stayed. He loved this team!

We couldn't afford to keep him for sure.  That being said, what he brought to Carolina was physicality, speed, and aggression.  3 things we are severely lacking right now in the secondary.

How do you know the team didn't approach Mitchell during the season?

He came here on a one-year deal to prove that he was worth a big contract. I doubt he was going to extend mid-season on cheaper terms when the sole reason he took a one year deal was to land himself a big payday.
