I knew he was hurt but I didn't think he was this bad off.

Panthers | S. Davis placed on IR
Sat, 17 Dec 2005 10:55:23 -0800

Pat Yasinkas, of the Charlotte Observer, reports Carolina Panthers RB Stephen Davis (knee) has been placed on Injured Reserve, ending his 2005 season. His time as a Panther might be over as well. Davis will count $3.85 million against the salary cap for the 2006 season and is due a roster bonus of over $1 million in March. The Panthers could free up over $2.5 million in salary cap space if they release Davis.

YEAH, not to be an A** but he's done as a Panther and maybe as an NFL Player. In my opinion he lost a lot of burst and doesn't find the holes like he used to.

He will find a job somewhere next year maybe even in Washington....

Does the name Eddie George sound familiar here?

Has Carolina tanked, or do they have a guy to step in? Their offense is based on power running, so i can't imagine they'll pose much of a postseason threat. Davis was a good runner - maybe he'll come back a la the Bus...

Foster is a real good player, a shifty runner but he has some power too. He's finally 100% healthy, I expect he'll fill in for them just fine.

Foster is good, and just think, there was a big cry to get Davis in here (from the fans), then he went to the Panthers.

Yep-Parcells has made some head-scratchers here(i.e. Jacob Rogers).

However-he's made alot more GOOD personnel moves than bad. There have been plenty of other "big cries to get [fill in the blank]" b/c of their marquee value-but only to go to other teams, but they've become subsequently washed up recently too.
