TD with a small role on the new staff?

[Tbe]

I thought this was an interesting exchange. TD thanks Canales for ‘the opportunity’. He asks Canales to let him know if he can send him anything to help him and Canales says “mindset, mentality, you know what I mean?”. He says it as if he’s already asked TD to prepare something for him.

Probably a very small thing, but it’s nice if TD is getting involved to get these players on track.

Could be dope to have him there to be a team mentor or something like that. I would hope TDs name still carries some weight in that locker room.

[Doc Holiday]

TD would be an amazing LB’ers coach right now. I remember back in 2015 teams would show film of him when they wanted to show text book how to do something. TD would have been a hall of famer I think if not for the injuries

 

[SOJA]

I would take him back in any capacity. We desperately need his leadership 

[Donald LaFell]

You can’t not play as long as he did and not have something to offer. He’s never said anything dumb. I’d like to think he help guys find their pride/confidence. 
 

Working back from those injuries was such an impressive feat. He even got Jeremy Chinned his first year but still was able to contribute.

We had such good fortune with those 4-3 linebackers it’s been incredible. Almost two decades of having someone that was near the top in terms of talent, usually felt like at least 2 guys.

Thomas Davis would make a good linebacker coach or fit in almost any role the Panthers would have for him.

[Manna]

That would be awesome. Talk about dawgs...3 ACL recoveries and playing in the SB with a broken arm. 

[LinvilleGorge]

I'd love to have him onboard in some type of role. The whole new staff is talking about instilling a tougher mentality. Who better to help with that than TD? The man literally has the scars to prove it. The ACLs, playing in the SB with his whole forearm stapled up from literally breaking his arm two weeks prior. Tougher than nails.

Dude dislocated his finger mid play while shedding a blocker, popped it back in and made a perfect form tackle.  Absolute beast of a player.

Watched the vid again. TD says he’s ‘looking forward to the opportunity’. 

[Wolfcop]

Yeah, not sure this meant what people think it meant, but I would love to have TD around in whatever capacity possible. 

[PantherFanInPhilly]

In case the team was waiting for my opinion before making a move....I vote YAY on TD. Anything to light a fire under this team's ass. 

[scpanther22]

Good time to be an old panther because the current team has no face of the franchise so they need the old players to act like stewards in the greater community 

[Gapanthersfan]

TD. DAWG! What an all out true warrior. Bad intentions. I’m not sure they build em like him any longer. This current team needs that fire. Please Morgan, put some dudes back on this team. 

Every report of an older player coming back in some capacity is a reminder to me of just how far the team has sank talent wise. 

Brown, Luvu and a healthy Horn are the only ones that measure up even a little to our past greats. 

Those teams were built to compete with anybody. Speed and power. Imagine our current squad going against prime Brees in the dome.
