so if luke sucked ass as a middle lb he'd still be more important simply because he has more responsibility?

If Luke sucked as a MLB he wouldn't be playing. But because he is a Beast, smart, and has a high football IQ he has that responsibility.

See how that works? Talent plus brains equal responsibility. Equal DPOY. Easy Peasy.

Star and Short came in last last year. Thanks for making the point that MLB(Keuchley) don't need rotation. When the ball barely pass the line LBs do nothing. DEs rush every single down. That's why they need rotation. It's not a testament to Keuchley's greatness for his lack of rotation. It's credit to the awesome job of the DL.

So if the ball rarely passes the line of scrimmage. How do opposing teams manage to score? We should be shutting everyone down.

Dude you are just too funny. Do you ever read what you write? Cuz I think you would be amused with what we have to read coming from you.

Luke made game-changing plays on a regular basis like Sherman.

That's the key to an elite player. Do they make plays that change the game in favor of them. I would argue keek does it as much as Sherman and has more responsibilities in general.

Whoever that haplo guy is I have no idea why he acts like like just flops on the pile to get tackles that is ridiculous and no one should argue with him further

i thought the "he's another pile-jumping slow white guy like barrett ruud" stuff was over after he got a few starts at mike

 

the impact on our defense in 2012 once he got moved to the middle was so apparent that you'd have to be an idiot to still be arguing that he'd be dan connor without our defensive tackles.  we basically had dwan edwards and a bunch of tackling dummies in 2012.

I still argue that star is the most important piece on our defense because he made keek that much better this past year along with everyone else. That's not a diss on keek. The defense as a whole is an engine where different parts need to be operating on all cylinders and keek definitely is the instructor for that.

It sure does sound like white-boy stigma though that some have eluded to just like when announcers and media ppl talk only about lukes brains. Kuechly is an athletic freak. Fast as lightning and he's fuging huge. Nobody talks about that ever. He put up the best combine numbers in his class but maybe his 12 year old face is clouding ppls judgements about him athletically.

      Panthers will play starters in first 2 preseason games

      By Captain Morgan · Posted

      CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Carolina Panthers coach Dave Canales said Friday that starters will play in the first two preseason games, stopping just short of admitting he made a mistake last season holding them out. The plan includes playing quarterback Bryce Young, who got off to a historically bad start to the 2024 regular season that got him benched after opening 0-2. Carolina opens their preseason schedule Friday at home against Cleveland, followed by an August 15 road game at Houston and August 21 home game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.   Canales said he will evaluate after the first two games whether starters will play in the third game. "Kind of going through it last year, we had a mix of veteran players, but [this is] predominantly a pretty young team,'' said Canales, who has at least six new starters to the defense that was the worst in the league a year ago. "I just can't pass up the opportunities. The reps in games are valuable. "[But] it goes to the night before, when guys know they're going to go out there, they've got to make a decision to play football. So it starts the night before with the prep. You start thinking about your plan, taking care of your body, making sure you get your rest.''   https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/45880676/panthers-starters-play-first-2-preseason-games-says-coach

      Micah officially requests a trade

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      You call the Cowboys purely for information, but we don't have the assets to pull off any realistic trade. Also, even if they would consider any trade, it's more likely they want to do it with an AFC team.
