AJ Klein - Did you notice....

Seconds after Luke Kuechly was ejected, AJ Klein calmly went to the sideline to exchange helmets. He now needed a helmet equipped with communications equipment. He was now the middle linebacker and responsible for the defensive play calls.

While Kuechly's shoes are big ones to fill, Klein did so admirably. He looks much more comfortable in the middle and has a natural presence about him in the huddle. He appears to be a natural leader. Klein tied Thomas Davis with tackles for loss on the day at two.

Also, they say you can tell how hard a defensive football player is working by how clean or dirty his uniform is at the end of the game. With that in mind, I will leave these two photos with you... food for thought.

That certainly doesn't make the guys standing around him look good.  It seemed not too many on the Panthers sidelines had a lot of energy.

 

BTW did you catch any of what McDermott was saying to the defense early in the game?  I remember the TV broadcast showing McDermott laying into the defense.

We still have a great foundation to build around on defense. However, the secondary is a train wreck. I would cut every players except Bene and Josh Norman. Possibly keep DeCoud for depth purposes.

 

If we lose Hardy we should have a little money to play around with.

      Brother, you don't end up 32nd in rushing defense accidentally. It takes work.

      Gameday Thread Steelers

      Steelers fans will take over the Stadium and city   It will be unbearable  worse for me, on the west coast, resigned to the nfl network and you know it will be a steelers broadcast team.    It was ungodly bad with sheduer 2 weeks ago  Last game, tried listening  on panthers radio and  watching  on espn live last week but the delay between the 2 drove me nuts  so as bad as they were playing, found something else to do

      Post- Training Camp 53-Man Roster Projection

      By CRA · Posted

      I mean I don't have a personal axe to grind with any human on the Panthers roster.  I know AT shouldn't be dominating the slot. The fact he is....is because we have a horrific front office/management.   I can part with any player.   The goal is a winning team.   the root of the AT ranting, is really just looking out for BY (people like to call me BY hater though).  A QB who was basically screwed from day 1 when we got drafted here.  I went hard at Carolina then too for setting him up to fail. Because it was obvious from the jump the setup was failure by design.  Which was true.   I said Frank bad zero sense with BY.  Miles Sandes made double zero sense.  The players they got in FA made zero sense.     Either you build a BY O.....or you move on from BY.  I have said I am cool either way.  We are in no man's land and have been there since they day we drafted him.
