Interesting: Former CAR RB Mike Davis Harshly Criticizes McCaffrey, Calls Him "Selfish as Poo"

[Saca312]

I came across an interesting and rather unusual take from former Panthers running back Mike Davis about his ex-teammate Christian McCaffrey. On the “Raw Room” podcast, Davis described his time in Carolina playing behind McCaffrey as a “blessing” overall. But then the tone switched as he threw in this sharply worded critique: McCaffrey was “selfish as hell” for how much playing time he hogged.

Don't believe me? Here’s what Davis specifically said:

Quote

 

“I thought it was selfish as hell. I thought it was so selfish… Have you ever seen a motherf‑ker get the ball six times in a row?”

 

He recalled how even when McCaffrey had a bruised foot, Davis expected to see some action—only to watch McCaffrey stay on the field the entire game.

He keeps piling on and on, just flabberghasted at McCaffrey's selfishness for staying in the game despite his touched.

Quite the interesting podcast, lol. Here's the article as reference:

He's right

Hmmm... Maybe he is right, but just reading your comment (I didn't listen to the podcast) makes it sound like Davis is upset he didn't touch the ball. Honestly, our coaching staff relied on CMC so much his last two to three years, it may not have only been CMC wanting to stay on. And while getting the ball six times in a row can be unusual, CMC was the rare player that was both the best running back and receiver on the team...

I just think that speaks to CMC wanting to win and knowing that he was the best offensive player on the field for us. I still envision a parallel universe where Stanford didn't run CMC into the ground and he stays healthy for us his entire time playing for us.

Meh. Some guys are three-down backs. Hell, that's really how it always used to be. CMC was a special back (when he was on the field). Ironically his body has afforded others plenty of playing time, no matter how "selfish"of can he was/is.

Damned typos. That used to rarely happen before the age of the Internet. I should probably give it five minutes after awakening from my slumber. poo, that won't probably help either.

what I took most from that interview in general….is I don’t think I would actually like Mike Davis.  

at one point the hosts on the show basically called him out that he dislikes everyone 

Mike Davis actually seems like the bad teammate who seemed genuinely confused about why he would need to do basic work if he had played well
