Davis hurt

Stephen Davis is out again. Everything that went right for the Panthers last year seems to be going wrong!

Starter will miss 2-5 weeks after knee scope

ChounsMan · 09-17-2004, 03:49 PM

I just benched him!

SmootSmack · 09-17-2004, 04:20 PM

Foster is looking better and better for me

FRPLG · 09-17-2004, 04:22 PM

This is one of the reasons the Skins dumped his ass.

SKINSnCANES · 09-17-2004, 04:30 PM

He'll still be their number one back and can have a great year. The panthers have a week three bye week so this might not hut as bad as a lot of you may think. He very well could just miss one game.

oh yeah? dont think we couldve used him last year? Priest Holmes is 31. and im not talking about his number. Davis still got it done.

Hey Matty ... No rush on that trade now.

Take your time, take 2-5 weeks if you must

SKINSnCANES · 09-17-2004, 05:41 PM

lol, well that bye week is goign to save you.

I guess if it doesnt take affect until next week I might want to look at starting Tyrone Wheatley since Fargas I dont think is going to play this week.

actually no, it was his agent's demands for 10mill a year and spurriers disinterest in power running backs.

deshaun went undrafted in a bunch of leagues, solid pickup.. though without davis or smith, that's a much weaker offense.

btw, whoever yanked D. Clark and E. Johnson in the EA league, i hate you

I grabbed them in all my yahoo leagues monday morning, but that damned EA waiver wire cost me both of them and now my TE is going to be a sore spot for the rest of the year (unless someone wants to trade

) /rant

SKINSnCANES · 09-17-2004, 07:27 PM

i took e.johnson in the warpath money league. Of course I also just traded for crumpler. I gave up a bunch of crumpler but I still might start johnson because hes got my boy Dorsey throwing ot him, and I know he likes TEs

That Guy · 09-17-2004, 08:00 PM

where's our san francisco fans to give us the heads up

49ers have a good WR and a good TE this year (or so it seems)...

big difference though is that Holmes produces in multiple ways and has only had one real injury that I can remember while davis always seems to miss 2-3 games a year due to injuries related to his knees, lower legs, or ankles. holmes is in a very elite club of all time nfl running backs and as much as I used to like davis, he's no where close to holmes' league.

Davis may not be in the same league as Holmes. And like you said about Davis missing 2-3 games a year is a down fall, but even though he misses 2-3 games a year he still rushes for 1,300 to 1,400 yards per season (unless Spurrier is the caoch), now just think if he could have stayed healthy for the 2-3 games that he missed. Not bad stats if you ask me...

i like davis yo

Gmanc711 · 09-18-2004, 11:06 AM

I wouldnt knock Davis for missing a few games at all. In all honesty, I expect Portis to miss 1-3 games somewhere along the season. These running backs take a beating, its hard for any of them to suit up for 16 games. I really like Stephen Davis, I hated how he was treated here the last couple years, but I'm glad we let him go so he could be somewhere that he could get a good opprotunity. I wish him well as long as it's not against us.He should be fine.
