Thomas Davis in Daytona?

I don't really keep up with Nascar and most the guys I can't stand, but I turned my TV on and flipped on ESPN as the race was ending. I do 'pull' for Dale Jr., if that's possible without knowing much that goes on week to week in the sport...

But anyway, as the race was ending they mentioned how it was a great storyline b/c Dale Jr. brought back his dad's original color scheme car with the #3 and won the race... So it did hold my attention for some reason. While in pit lane, they interviewed him and Richard Childress, and while Childress was walking away ending his interview, Thomas Davis was standing behind him in a green shirt with what appeared to be Dale's race team.

I'm almost 100% sure it was him unless he has a twin somewhere. I was kind of shocked b/c I didn't think he would be out and about already that soon after the surgery. Although I could see how they could be friends with both being big guys in and around Charlotte.

If any of you actual fans DVR'd it, please check...

It was CJ Spiller, actually. He has a personal services deal with Subway, they sponsored the race.

Wow, thanks for pointing that out... I thought it looked a lot like TD, but I wasn't sure. Never really noticed how much he and Spiller look alike. Thanks Bobby.

my dad was on crutches for a month or two after his ACL replacement. It's like it never even happened now, though (a year later)

Maybe we should sign your Dad then....I think Davis' injury is going to be longterm, Unless he takes this entire season off and doesn't rush back.It might be silly to invest no term in him reguardless of his talent

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
