Remember this hit on Cam Newton last year

The refs have been protecting Cam more this season and it is obvious. TD's hit was really bad which resulted in a concussion. Last year's no calls on Cam were infuriating but it is what it is now. Refs are taking shots to the head more seriously now partially because Cam spoke up. There's no reason to cry over it. We will be fine and TD will come back rested and pissed off for the playoffs. I'm not even mad about it

I think it's the defenseless receiver part in addition to the hit location that makes it a suspension. 

If it would have been the other way around it would just have been a fine. I really hope Davis appeals it.

It 100% is because he got hurt. Had he popprd right back up it would have been a fine at worst. 

The NFL has a bad habit of punishing the outcome not the initial action. 

Well unless your Cam Newton weathering in pain. Then it's just a $500 fine.

As a TD 58 fan, it was a dirty hit.  My wife is not a die hard panthers fan yet, but I found myself explaining why it was unnecessary.  I told her he should get a game for it.  He is remorseful  and  deserves a suspension for a hit he clearly understands the consequences of.   2 games is excessive.   I love Thomas and what he has done for this team and his continued efforts to help the community.

      I remember the Huddle consensus over the course of last season and the previous one. Lots of Bryce is a bust, we should've drafted a 4th slot WR, should've kept Wilks, should've kept an armless Cam, etc etc. So... yea... already thought about that. I wouldn't trust the Huddle to detail my car, let alone run a multi-billion dollar professional sports team. 😛

      bold prediction, I think Mike Green will be the best pass rusher in this class, and thats even with abdul carter.  He reminds me of demarcus ware, not just in size and prowess, but even coming from a Sunbelt school (Ware from Troy, Green from Marshall).  I think he is passionate about the sport where I think Carter as the physical freak might not have the heart.  Thats the guy Im sold on and am gonna hammer the table for, I know he's not projected 8, but he is projected like 12-13, so if a slide back can happen and we still get the guy I want, I'm 100% on board. All that said, it takes 2 to tango, I think the Cowboys are the tango-er.  IMO theres a VERY good shot that Jeanty is available at 8.  Why does that matter?  Not only do the cowboys NEED a runningback (dak sucks without a run game), but MORE importantly, gee where did Jeanty play in high school.....Frisco TX, literally Dallas Metro.  Soo, RB is a position of need and the best RB and most blue chip draft selection that  could improve the offense immensly played IN dallas metro AND will be in range for them to move up and pick?  Do ya think Jerry Jones is gonna just say no to the Jersey Sales?  Jerry might have sexually assaulted a woman and attempted to prevent black people from going to school, but he's no idiot (he is).  IMO, we get a good enough package, prlly their first and third,  maybe a conditional later and we move to 12.  We get Green, they get Jeanty, everbuddy happy.
