He straight up says multiple times throughout the episode that he was an "angry child" and has calmed down a lot after the league.

Like, yea, he was cocky but the amount of players that make the NFL that aren't are relatively slim. He hated Steve Spurrier because Spurrier would talk grimey to people and even told a story about how a teammate requested help with overcoming addiction and the very next day they tested and booted him. He acknowledged that he was a good coach but that he didn't like him as a person. Spurrier told him that he needed to carry himself more like Lattimore, not the ball.

My dawg, I get that you're down on the team and anything that isn't Clemson, but at this point it's coming across that you're willfully dismissing facts in favor of a chosen narrative whether it's regarding Bryce, the Teppers, Canales, or now Mike Davis. 😮

my dawg, Mike Davis didn't come across good in that podcast on multiple levels.  No one should be upset someone says that.  Seems to me you are trying to find disrespect to be upset with me over.   

not sure you even actually read my post before you jumped into your reply, given what your fact correction was.

Was it a cmc thing or the coaches decisions to keep him in and using him  over and over? 

Mike Davis arrived in Charlotte mid-season while CMC was pulling off the 1000/1000 season.  He signed here and had 2 total touches that year.  CMC was Norv's Carolina Tomlinson.  It's just lack of awareness on Mike's part.  He was insurance.  And we eventually had to cash in that policy later down the road when Rhule got here.

Right.  The coaches are calling the plays and subbing out the players.  CMC isn't going to pull himself out of a game.  The only recent player to do that was AR and he got hell for it.

Needing to move on from him because we were a dumpster fire (and still are) - I agree

Saying we fleeced the 49ers is something... We 100% didn't (at least not yet). He was fully healthy the season he went there and the year after. Obviously last year didn't go too well for him on the injury front. If he continues to miss half a season or more the rest of the time with the 49ers, then I agree. Otherwise, we lost the trade

Hard to believe we lost a trade when we have players that actually suit up.  Great players can't do great things from the bench.  He's fragile as glass.

He's right

Started the trend of quitting on your teammates before a Bowl Game.

Sandbagged it with the Panthers when he realised we weren't winning poo - loads of soft tissue injuries to keep him out of games. Eventually we had to trade him.

Agreed.  It also made no sense for us to keep a RB on that contract when we had sooooo many needs.  Whether we addressed them properly or not is a different story, but the trade made sense.

He should be salty. When called upon he was the driving force for the most successful run we've had since 2017.

You're thinking of D'Onta Foreman in 2022. Mike Davis averaged fewer than 4 YPC and never eclipsed 90 yards on a 5-12 2020 team that lost 9 of its last 11 games.

Sure, when you just make up stats.

Oh yeah, I admit that I just came up with that one out of thin air. No idea how he did here, but honestly he was pretty good on the field. 

I just fired that one off mainly because he was cracking on a guy who really was putting it all out there and performing, even when it looked like no one else was.

That trade resulted in the following players... Jonathan Mingo (which I guess turned into a fourth round pick because of Dallas, which led to Etienne) and DJ Johnson...

Please, enlighten me as to how we won that trade

If you go back and read where i said the "face value" of the trade was a win it might make more sense.  Hypothetically if we had gotten 3 first round picks for CMC and they had all been busts, you could very easily still make the argument that we got incredible compensation for him and won the trade.  Just because the players don't pan out doesn't mean it's not a good trade.

    • 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.
