Because he's not big and black and plays for the 49ers.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But seriously. His athleticism is questioned all the time under the stigma he's white but his combine numbers are great.

 

The article doesn't question his athleticism. It just points out that he wasn't the highest rated in any category for a defensive player and shouldn't have been DPOY because other players had better seasons.

Here is the thing about PFF. Even The Hoodie has said before that when watching film to game plan his opponents, when defensive breakdowns happen he often doesn't know whose fault it was because he doesn't know the defensive play call and defender responsibilities.

So while PFF is fun for fans, don't put too much stock in third party grading systems

I would argue that Keuchly has more ownership of that defense than those other guys do. Plus they always underrate Thomas Davis who's probably taking plays away from him.

I actually thought Davis played better than Kuechly last year. Just my opinion. Dude was all over the field and playing lights out.

 

Luke has merely scraped the surface of his talent. Davis is in his prime.

      Houston Texans... You Suck!!!

      I mean I think its a bit disingenuous to call basically anyone here a casual fan. I don't think the casual fan creates a profile then logs into it, in the offseason, to comments on mundane offseason topics.. I dont think anyone on here would be considered a casual fan. That said, I get your point. My POV is from the player. They sign this contract, move their family because of these contracts. When Clowney came him, we basically had a coming home party for him.  So yeah, I get why we did it and I know that ultimately the owner doesnt 'save' money, but I can feel for the human side of the player, which is why I want them to get all they can while they can.

      My guess is the NBA will either send Flagg back “home” to the Northeast in Brooklyn or Washington, or San Antonio so that they can keep building around Wemby. If I was a betting man I would take the odds on the Spurs. This definitely feels like a #1 pick that they will rig.

      In fairness, she is ensuring she is talked about.  People really aren’t going out there way to bring her up.  It’s some weird poo.  She would end up getting talked about given her actions if she was 40. Bill realizing some of these high end “companions” got a game of their own.  That’s what I don’t think Bill saw coming.
