Why would THomas Davis risk coming out and causing further injury in a year that basically has been thrown in the shitter to begin with?

Smart thing for him to do is sit out until the next season whenever that is and be fully healed and ready to go.

I agree. There is no new for him to come back. He comes back for a meaningless season and end up being hurt would be a silly thing to do. He should just focus on conditioning and getting that knee back together. I had a knee injury a few year ago (patellar tendon). Knee injuries are tricky and should be watched carefully. I am still feeling the effects well I'm sure having top trainers help him more than me lol..but yeh..sit out the rest of the season.

Of course he is coming back and it is all about the money. Right now he is damaged goods and he won't get a big contract here or elsewhere. If he can come back and show he can play like he did before the surgeries, his stock goes way up here and elsewhere.

How the Panthers are doing right now won't factor into his decision much at all.

b/c if he doesn't play this year.....he might end up playing for chump change. He can go out and prove he is still the same player these last few games. I think Carolina owes him that. Remember he was one of those guys who got screwed and had to wait another year.

Otah should go to IR.

Or he may have another knee blowout from not being healed up enough and end his career all together. Making "chump change" of several hundred grand a year sure does beat flipping burgers.

If it were me, I wouldn't go back in. He made about 3 mil this year on the bench rehabbing. I would ask for a 1 year contract for next season for a low price to show that I was back, then go after the big bucks.

Athletes all believe that they are 10 feet tall and bullet proof. So yeah he will come back as soon as he can. guys who are cautious and worry about their health or getting hurt, don't play professional football.

They know the window to make money is small and with there no guarantee about football at all next year will want a big contract before the lockout, not in a year or two.

I hear all of you guys ideas. He could reinjure himself by coming back to soon again or he could come out and have a steller remaining season and increase his value. But hopefully his value with us (Panthers) is already set. Davis is great at LOLB in our scheme and I think that his love for the game and desire and competitiveness will bring him back.

      TNF: Rams/Seahawks

      I think the book has been fairly written on Darnold, and by and large stays true. He can be rattled by pressure, and will lose his composure. If a team can get to him and have something go wrong in the plan, the mistakes and errors will pile up. Rams have a better offense, Seahawks sport a better defense. Should be a good 1.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      Not a defense of him...an understanding of the problem. (something you seem to be lacking right now) 🙄 Bryce in a Canales offense is not an example of a stylistic mismatch, but I can give you one if that helps. When he was playing for the Panthers, Cam Newton sat under OC's running Coryell type offenses. Newton had a big arm and was a strong runner. He fit into that sort of attack very well. Then he goes to New England, where at the time they were running an Earhardt-Perkins system (similar to WCO In a lot of what they do but very different terminology). The Patriot offenses back then were heavily based on timing and rhythm style passing, not something that Newton was especially well suited for. So he washed out at New England, not because he had poor ability (his abilities had been on display here on a regular basis) but because he didn't fit what they wanted to do with their offense. I always go back to Jeff Garcia as one of the prime examples of this issue. Garcia in a WCO looked like a world beater. Put him in any other scheme though...yikes!  So again, Young's issues here have nothing to do with any failure to mesh with Canales. Hell, is say Canales has actually done pretty well at adapting his system to who he has rather than trying to jam square pegs into round holes. Again, it doesn't take an elite level of football knowledge to get this. It's pretty basic. But if you're not even capable of understanding what the real problem is, how are you going to know you to find the right solution? 🤔
