From the article...

 

Luke:

 

Maybe the best defensive player in football this side of J.J. Watt.

 

 

Bene:
 

Benwikere narrowly makes this list over guys like Kyle Fuller, K'Waun Williams, Jason Verrett and E.J. Gaines. The rookie out of San Jose State did not allow a touchdown reception last season despite playing nearly 500 snaps.

Yeah, Luke's age has always been one of my biggest points about what makes him so good and valuable.  I don't think a lot of people realized he was 20 going into his rookie year after as well as he played... they just assumed he was older.

 

I was kinda' dumbfounded when I found out he was only 21 after he won the DROY.  Just the fact he played the game like a hardened veteran and had such an advanced football IQ at his age was crazy.

 

He's going to be ridiculous once he gets around 28 or so, which is usually an athlete's peak.

Klein

 

That is a lot of intelligence behind the front 4.  They all seem articulate, cerebral, etc.  in interviews, and it shows on the field.  Character matters too--and they have it.

 

(Sorry Norman, you do not make this list because you have a bit of a history and you HELD THE INTERCEPTION WITH ONE HAND WHILE CROSSING THE FIELD WHEN EVERYONE IN THE STADIUM AND OUT OF IT KNEW THAT FALLING DOWN WAS THE SMART MOVE!!!)

    • Yards a game works better over a longer period of time as well. Averages always work out over the long run. The smaller the sample size the easier it is to skew. Also opponents matter more when the size is small. Player 1 lights up 2 bad defenses in 4 starts vs Player 2 playing 10 games vs multiple defenses. It hard to make it apples to apples how it currently sits. Remember during Bryce’s little run last year how annoyed you were when people were pulling Bryce’s starts from week 9 on vs the whole season. 
    • Someone else claimed I said EVERY.  Literally in my post breaking it down it gave Bryce TDs per game.   Shough however has the majority in his favor if just looking at starts. whats subjective about comp %, yards, QB ratings and turnovers?  Now I guess the argument one might make off them could be subjective.  But all I’m saying is statistically as a starter he has been better this year overall.  I don’t think Shough is great.  I think he is impressive based on the situation.  2nd rounder stepping in on a bad team.   And he like so many other QBs…..serves as little red flag going off about what we are doing here offensively. 
    • Player A - 2 starts.  200 yards in each start. He averages 200 yards a game.  Player B - 1 start.  Throws for 400 yards.  Comes in another random game and has 1 pass attempt on a Hail Mary to end the game that goes incomplete.   Now given the random game he appeared for a snap, he averages 200 yards a game. Thats why you isolate starts. If you are talking starter vs someone who began as a backup.  Simple made up numbers/situations to illustrate the point.
