Thomas Davis getting praise by other teams coaches.

In an article by the Charlotte Observer. Coach McDermott had this to say in the article, praise for TD by other coaches.

“I had a coach call me this morning and say I’m showing my guys that play,” said McDermott on Monday afternoon, though he would not reveal who the coach was or which pro team he’s affiliated with. “That is awesome fundamentals. It’s a lost art. To make that tackle in space, with nobody else around, and a back of Sproles’ quality, I think is phenomenal fundamentals and it’s a leader leading by example.”

I really don't know how you can narrow it down to just one. Davis was eviscerating anyone and everyone within his line of sight. That Man is fanning the flames of an ember of success I'm not sure that I have seen before in this defense. The outcome being a nucleus of atoms that might possibly result in a new element listed on the periodic table.

That play, when considered alongside Ealy's open-field takedown of Wilson last week, really shows the discipline and sound fundamentals of the defense as a whole.  Perfect games are hard to have (as shown by the long TD run), but this defense is impressive.

Out of all of the A+ players we have on this team, TD is the closest to his twilight.  TD knows his time is short, I hope so bad they can get a ring for everyone on this team but TD deserves one more than anybody.

TD has always played intensely, but it seems like he has ratcheted up his intensity even more this year as he knows that these next couple years are probably his last couple to win the SB. he seems to set the tone on defense with his intensity, almost trying to will this team to win.

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
