Thomas Davis

It seems every year around now there isn't too much to discuss and I always tend to realize how awesome Thomas Davis is. Behind Harris & Beason, TD is extremely important to our defensive chemistry, cohesiveness, and overall play. At times, he becomes a very under-appreciated aspect of our team.

Hard-hitter, multi-talented, now an extremely solid vet. And I hate to look at stats too much, but his best "on-paper" year was in fact last season:

113 Tackles

3.5 Sacks

2 Forced Fumbles

here's to TD :cheers2:

He's easily the most underrated player on the team, from a fan aspect and also where the media is concerned. He had a slow start due to a less than perfect transition from S to SLB to S to SLB to WLB but he's finally come into his own and I can't wait to see him again this year. He is the Lance Briggs to the Brian Urlacher if you will.

From a post of mine a couple weeks ago:

Let's face it, the guy is 26 years old, has escalated his impact every year, and is now playing next to an All-Pro 24 year old team leader."

And he really knows how to bring the wood.

I have met the guy. Solid character off the field, if you ask me. I met him during the foulness that was a couple of months ago, when the Peppers saga took a turn for the worst. The guy had nothing bad to say about the situation, he just praised Pep for his hard work and wished him the best.

I did joke with him at the time about how I held off on the #90 jersey, so I could buy the #34. He was like...man, why not the #58????

Easily one of my top five favorite Panthers

Not at all surprising. He's a keeper and I don't think he has come close to his potential. 26 years old.:)

    • XL I dont even think he gets a full season. He's almost in a moment to moment tryout, post training camp. If he does his 'jumping out of bounds' catch again, I think the team calls him an Uber. 
    • Kudos to the Knicks and their diehard, true fans. Like the Hornets, it wasn’t long ago that they were considered the laughing stock of the league with a trash owner (I guess Dolan has gotten a little better).    Loved seeing the energy in MSG. 
    • Yeah one big factor has been he is surprisingly quite durable. But the reality of that aspect is much of it boils down to plain dumb luck more often than not. Big guys get hurt smaller guys get hurt it happens across the league to anyone to varying degrees. The issue is we are staring down the barrel of a possible top 10 QB salary and Bryce Young is one of the least physically gifted starters in the league. That is not a shot at him it is simply a rational acknowledgment of circumstances. There is a legitimate question to be asked if his window as a starter in this league is smaller as a result because what is going to happen when those hits that he has previously popped right back up from with a smile on his face begin to accumulate as they do for every player that has been in this league? These are just things to consider.
