Luke on Dan Patrick Radio Show this morning

[the butch]

Came on around 10 this morning

 

- Crew joked about Luke being small--called him Luke Weakly

- Luke agreed to tackle all of them to prove otherwise

- Asked abou trashtalk--said he tries to stay away from that on the field; leaves it to his teammates

- Asked when he knew he was good--said his Jr year of HS his coaches were telling him he could play and he carried that over from college into the Pros

- Best QBs:  Rodgers and Brady but also gave credit to Brees and Ryan but slighted them bc he plays them so much

- "Over 4" is a basic defensive audible; D isn't super complex just plays hard

- Asked about how he "clicks" on field--said just a lot of prep builds up angst to make the most out of one day

- Asked about the "perfect hit"--said an open run lane and the RB doesn't see you; when you don't feel it but they do; said he was going to knock the air out of Paulie

- Props to Lynch-tough runner

- Admits to being told by others that they thought he would be bigger

- Playing weight at 235

- Asked about end of season--said it's upsetting to end season w/o SB but you keep going

- Skyline chilli and some pizza joint and ice cream joints

- Asked about being from Cinci--didn't get recruited by Oh St (no offer no walk on spot)

- Brother went to Oh St

- Rooted for Oh St this playoff bc of brother

Good stuff. Thanks for posting that. Luke seems like a humble but confident player. His legend is still growing and if he keeps working hard, he could be known as the greatest middle linebacker in the history of the NFL after he retires.

Hmmmm, didn't give props to Cam on the best QB.  Maybe it was best QB he plays against?  Wait, do they not practice.......hell, who cares; it's the off season.  I just started on the scotch.  It's mid week you know.

Luke playing at 235 lbs,which is light for an NFL ML,shows being elite is not all about how big you actually are but how big you play.

[panthers55]

Weight isn't the most important issue at any position. Michael Strahan played defensive end at 255 which is considered light going up against 300 lb tackles, technique and strength are much more important than size alone.
