He’ll appeal. He’ll get it reduced to one game, but as of now, Carolina Panthers linebacker Thomas Davis has been suspended for two games. It was for the bullshit, concussion-causing, illegal hit on Davante Adams on Sunday.
We talked about it earlier. Adams was rightfully pissed off. Davis apologized.
Thing was, it wasn’t just illegal. It was completely away from the play. So this fool was just like, “I need to hit somebody! Rwarrr!”
Yeah, good for you and your self control.
Here it is again.

Yeah, man. Cheap bullshit.
You notice how Luke Kuechly is just running with Adams at that point, knowing he isn’t making the tackle? Won’t be involved in the play?
And then, BAM!
Suck that, motherfucker!
Good work, Thomas Davis. Gooooood work!
I’ll actually be pissed if this suspension comes down on appeal. But of course it will. They always do. It’s a formality. The league has no balls to take this shit out of the game.
If Thomas Davis stays suspended for two games, my name is Nancy. Fuck you, Ginger Hammer.
So great about protecting the players, but you really do nothing to protect them, do you, you useless fuck? It’s all a PR campaign. But please tell us more about deflated footballs and such, which no one give a shit about.
Doing a bang-up job!
I call these shots the way i see them, for or against the Packers, i call what i see. That shot was blatant, and intentional.
Davis claiming he wasn’t try to hit him like that, is like robbing a bank, then wanting to be let go because you told the cops you didn’t mean to do it. I also understand a coach backing his player, but Ron Rivera is simply an asshole for what he said. Claiming Davis didn’t mean to do it, and insinuating Davis should get some kind of credit because he didn’t taunt him after.
Concussions end players careers….it’s probably about time the league holds its ground.
In other news, Davis is planning on joining the lawsuit against the NFL for CTE.
Davante Adams will almost certainly have CTE and will barely be able to talk by age 45
To me Kuechly since he came back from his last concussion has quit sticking his helmet into plays as much as he had prior to that concussion. You can almost see that someone has told Kuechly another concussion and you are done. That is Davis’s teammate. You would think something like purposefully going after a defenseless players head would hit close to home. Davis should get an extra game or two for being so blind or ignorant as to not see what has happened to the guy that stands right next to him on the field.
^this
“I didn’t mean to do it”
How fucking stupid do you think we are? Absolutely nothing about your actions on that play suggest that you “didn’t mean it.” And then Rivera backs him up on it. Is this guy related to Pete Carroll?? Fuck every last one of you!
Did you see that tweet by Zach Brown of the redskins, saying that Adams should stop playing football because this asshole is never going to stop head hunting?? What’cha gonna do about that Goodell?? Oh that’s right, nothing. Player safety is a joke.
Adams may be a concussion or two from not playing anymore. I am guessing this was likely a fairly severe concussion. I agree, the NFL needs to start holding its ground on these type of hits. Davante Adams should have been on that field for the final drive, and the result could be different. Players doing what Davis did should minimally get two games, and face a lifetime ban for multiple offenses. It is the only way to get through to these guys. Playing in the NFL is a privilege, not a right. If you are going to be putting people’s livelihoods in jeopardy, you should be banned.
