When talk turns to the Panthers' linebacker corps in a defense that has played in a resurgent fashion of late, the first and last subject is generally Luke Kuechly. Fair enough, as Kuechly has been one of the better players at his position since the team selected him with the ninth overall pick in the 2012 draft. But Thomas Davis has a more compelling story, and the nine-year veteran is playing at a fairly torrid pace himself.

Davis is the only player in NFL history to return to the field after tearing the same ACL three times -- and he's operating at a level that belies that injury history. This season, the 30-year-old Davis has 100 total tackles, 2.5 sacks and two forced fumbles. Pro Football Focus has him ranked as the NFL's fifth-best 4-3 outside linebacker, and he's tied with Oakland Raiders rookie Khalil Mack with 48 stops, good enough for seventh in the league. Davis isn't thrown at often, but he's proven that he has the speed and agility, as well as the short-area quickness, to cover when required.

      Looking to middle Denver / Minnesota.  Hopefully can cash out both before game ends and make some money on each.

      Draft Taylen Green

      Forgive me and all, I think I seen rapport talk about Willis market will be 30+, which is insane. He said many teams are interested and he impressed with his play last yr. I cannot believe some team is going to give 35 per year along with 50 in guarantees. Just hit the market at the right time, the draft sucks after the top guy and current FA looks poor given Jones is with Indy...it was just leave Willis......*tua, Watson, Murray, smith, cousins, _______ should be ava tho...but teams seem down on half of them, even as min type of deal. medical wise tua should retire, cuzins haaaassss to be showing his age soon, right?? Watson, when was his last NFL pass in a game; 2-3 years ago??

      Steve Smith on Ron Rivera

      By Basbear · Posted

      I swear..... this is RICH coming from a guy talking about cuming down some random #6 womans throat while you were married to Angie, the wife who gave you children.  Steve talks about being a 'man" and all that stuff, the husband of the woman whom Steve sent all those lewd text messages called you on face time. Steve started crying like a BITACH and ended the call after a bitach voiced "Im sorry". fug Steve Smith, Im shocked he's not in jail and Im done with him getting career as a world class asshole. Go enjoy your empty home and I hope Angie takes ALLLLL your money and time away from your kids. God forbid Steve influences them with his "Im from the street" mindset.  Angie and John Kasay helped steve form being Steve, what a joke. insane levels of irony form this Steve weirdo that thinks he's super smart and people owe him all sort of special treatment when he is a giant turd inside and out.
