Thomas Davis Back Running, Plans to be Back Midseason

Ridiculous. I know he wants to get back out there and play asap, but I wish he would take his time so we know he's good for the long-term...

Thomas Davis is holding out hope that he will play this season.

The Panthers' linebacker, attempting to come back from his second torn ACL in his right knee in a seventh-month period, believes he is on track to return this year.

"We're just hoping and wishing that everything keeps going the way that it is right now, and I should be back midway through the season," Davis said Thursday. "That's the goal, and right now we're on course to actually making that."

...

The 27-year-old Davis, the Panthers' first-round pick in 2005, continues to rehab the knee and began running last week.

"I was able to go out and do the conditioning running with the team. I think a lot of people were surprised to see me out there doing that," Davis said. "It's just a credit to our trainers and how well of a job they've done. We understand that this is the second go-round and we're being a lot more cautious with it now."

    • He's not wrong though. You talk like a politician on here. Leaving yourself just enough wiggle room to say you never fully counted Bryce out if you need to....But we can all see it. Just say you think he is a bust outright and you will have to type a lot less. Obfuscating your opinion behind QB3 competitions etc....
    • Most EVs are in the 90+ e-MPG meaning some measurement house somewhere compares the EV to a similar ICE model and works out how much is costs to charge (on average) versus fill up as a point of comparison. Talking long term, in the hundreds of thousands of miles?  No clue.  Some early signs are that EV batteries maintain 80% charge over 400k miles.  So there's that.   The challenge and charm of an ICE vehicle is being able to park it under a tree, get your jack stands out and tinker with your engine.  There's just not that same level of complexity in an EV.  I saw someone estimate there are 200 or so moving parts in an EV, and 2000 in an ICE vehicle.  I'm not a part counter so I can't really speak to that. I think that the EV is more the future than any type of combustion engine.  Those will still be around in specific purposes, but for most people - an EV will be the superior option in terms of efficiency.  I say that as someone who loves stupid horsepower numbers out of turbo 4 bangers and inline 6s...  I am one of those tinkers when I can be. A bigger issue for EVs is going to be the ownership versus lease.  Right now, there are INSANE leases on EVs, which is great, but what do you have at the end of that lease?  Nada, maybe some equity if you're lucky.  Where as I'm almost done paying for my car, and plan to keep it until the wheels fall off (or my son wrecks it when he starts to drive).  Will EV makers do the smartphone thing and build in planned obsolesce?  Stop updating software?  I love the tech in EVs, and I think getting more cars and trucks off the road is a good thing.  But I am still just a little concerned.  Capitalism has gotten far too extractive.
