Davis - Get to the ball with bad intentions


AntiBuc

Recommended Posts

Remember that quote?  In Davis's first week as a Panther, he was asked in an interview about his tackling philosophy. His reply?  "Get to the ball with bad intentions".

I've never done a GIF, but would love for someone to put the clip of Davis's tackle on David Johnson last week on here.  That's when he blew right through the line and totally creamed Johnson for a  6-yard TFL.  The speed...the violence...just incredible!

If he wants to use his arm less, I can see him just trucking his target with all he has. Can you imagine a more violent Thomas Davis?  Kinda scary.

Can't wait to see you in the Super Bowl TD!  Looking forward to those bad intentions!

I like watching CJ... he goes from trying to get to the tackle to reacting to TDs hit and I can almost hear it.

Actually, I was talking about David Johnson, the Cards running back that TD blew up.  But, yeah, CJ's reaction was great, too.

I know I have been complaining about the wife watching the games with me lately. But this play got her good. They showed the replay from the endzone. I told her to watch #58. When he waxed Johnson. With a smile on her face, all she said was "Wow".

 

This from a gal that took years to finally get the idea that tackling was legal.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
