Mike Davis Is Filling In For Christian McCaffrey Well
It’s a real luxury to have a talent like Christian McCaffrey that can produce at a high-level on carries and as a receiver out of the backfield. With him being sidelined, other players have had to step up for the Carolina Panthers.
Perhaps most impressive of all has been the performance Mike Davis has managed to provide the Panthers.
In back-to-back weeks, Davis received 16 carries and managed to exceed the 80-yard mark. Against the Atlanta Falcons, he finished with a season-high 89 yards on the ground— providing a needed element to the Panthers’ offense en route to a victory.
When the Panthers get McCaffrey back in their lineup, they will have quite a one-two punch in the backfield once again. That’s fascinating to think about when considering how the passing game has developed.
