Thomas Davis is a good guy off the field. He’s done some great things in the Charlotte community. I’ll never fault him for any of the things he’s done when he steps off the turf. That being said, he’s a beast unleashed on the field. He ended up getting suspended for the rest of the regular season for his senseless hit on Davante Adams. Davis showed great remorse after the hit then on Twitter the next day yet still it falls on deaf ears when you reflect how much he gets fined for this type of behavior.

Davis has been fined seven times over the last four years for hits that are deemed illegal by the league. That’s all of the proof you need to show he’s acting like a fraud. I have no problem with him being sorry for his dirty hit, but let’s not act like he’s this schoolboy. Carolina fans are giving him a pass because he’s an angel in their eyes when really he plays like a complete asshole on the football field. Let’s call it for what it is… He’s not a clean player on the football field.

I don’t think the league needs a targeting rule, but I do think they need to make some sort of card system like soccer. Some hits should be yellows and others should be straight red which kick the player out of the game then the first half of the next one. I feel like it would slow down some of the more damaging hits. This wasn’t a bang-bang player, rather, a bullshit crackblock by a dirty player who never gets call out for it. We see it all the time in basketball. Nice guys never get thrown into the conversation.

Hopefully, Davis serves both games.

Charlie.
