Jon Beason

Luke Kuechly

Sam Mills

All either made the Pro Bowl or should have in TD's case. Assume they're 100% healthy and playing at their prime Panthers level.

In their primes?

Greene

Mills

Kuechly / Beason

Davis

Morgan

Ranked on their performance while they were here.  Injuries excluded.  Or else Morgan, Davis and Beason would be bottom three.

 

Luke Kuechly

 

- Really nothing much to say here.  NFL DPOTY...

 

Thomas Davis

 

- Fierce and fast.  Incredible cover linebacker, and nasty instincts.  Took a bit to develop, but when he did...BOOM.

 

Dan Morgan

 

-  Until Thomas Davis emerged as a stud and Kuechly gained DPOTY, Morgan was easily the best Mike backer in team history.  When healthy (ya ya) he was the best linebacker on the field.  Great in coverage and stout against the run.  C'mon, SB 38...

 

Kevin Greene

 

-  One of the all-time great pass rushers, but only here for a flash.

 

Sam Mills

 

- Meant more in the locker room, but he was a pivotal part of the team without a doubt.  He basically had a hand....so to speak in our first win.

 

Jon Beason

 

-  Had the makings to be the best Panthers linebacker, but his size really hurt him.  Still an excellent linebacker, just not elite like we had all hoped.

 

Lamar Lathon

 

-  Good player, benefited from having Kevin Greene and Sam Mills around him.

    • There is a Grand Canyon-sized chasm between your opinion and the opinions of most former player hockey guys who do this for a living.
    • I can only imagine the **** eating grins on the committee right now. "Oh, Bama didn't deserve it? Oh, Miami didn't deserve it? Suck it, haters!" lol
    • To say that, is gaslighting, because it isn’t true. I mean, maybe one or two people do that but it isn’t the predominant behavior. Even Frank has given him credit. I think particularly the Rams game. A couple of glowing posts.   I know I have. Gotta be honest about it because if you aren’t it undermines what else you say.  But the degree of how far I go with credit, in terms of it being a projection of future performance? Not very far. Acknowledge it, but require more of it. There is a lot of bad play to offset.    I tried to remain passive while the last 9 games (post ankle injury) played out. It is just really hard when the lows won’t go away. I failed. As high as a couple of those highs were, there isn’t enough.    I know it is premature to just say I want to move on, made my decision after 6 of those games ended up pretty much really good or not good enough, but I have had enough of being patient and letting him show the reality either way.  So in my view, he Could still validate himself to a decent degree if he smokes the last three starts. But also in my view I don’t expect to see it. Maybe one more high quality start, would be my expectation. So yes he could still somehow justify having the job next year. If that happened I still wouldn’t have much faith given the last three years and all that has transpired. Again, there is a lot of bad play to offset.
