Yeah, the hit was horrible. If I remember correctly it looked like he stumbled a little bit then fell into the guy head first. 

Very scary moment. My wife and I both were holding our breath. I was expecting them to have to take him out on a stretcher. 

Yeah, and vermil (right?) tackling him probably didn't help. lol. 

 

But, whe he did get up and started yelling at the defense I was very encouraged and expected to at least see him back on the sideline cheerleading. 

 

I just hope it's not worse than what they say.

That hit looked pretty bad off. Luke had no idea where he was for awhile. It reminded me of when an animal gets hit crossing the street and the shock/stun of what happened has them wandering. It eased my concerns a little bit when he was pumping his defense up as he walked off, like a true leader. Glad he didn't come back in the game and hope that it wasn't so severe that his long-term health is a concern moving forward. Luke plays at one speed and concussion concerns don't fit that speed at all. 

Hope he's doing better and the Panthers are smart with his diagnosis. I wonder if Chris Borland is reaching out to him too.

He's lucky he didn't break his neck..

It definitely looked more of a neck stinger than concussion, like his body was in a shock/not responding even though he did.  If it was a bad concussion he would have not been responding by encouraging his teammates.  Hopefully good news will come in soon but I have never seen him ever tackle so poorly, even my fiance said during preseason that Luke was being himself on the field or looked like the same player but she doesn't know football that much lol.  Keep pounding Luke, keep pounding Williams, and keep pounding Panthers!

How many times can we all recall Luke tackle with his head down, 0!  His tackling technique is like the golden standard for kids to model and professionals.  Hopefully this is the last scare this year for the team. Get all the bad luck out early unlike last year.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      This thread is turning into bizarro world. Most of the anti-Bryce crowd was heavily pro CJ Stroud so I am confused how that ties into any racial element.  Not saying we still don't have some of that crowd in here but it's not like the Prime Cam years where this place was rife with those types.  The anti-Bryce sentiment SEEMS to MOSTLY be rooted in his underwhelming physical stature/abilities and/or his underwhelming overall career to date. All this being amplified by the massive trade haul we gave away for him. So, technically we have missed the opportunity to draft Jaden Daniels AND passed on CJ Stroud. Fairly or not, Bryce hasn't measured up to those type of players at all.

      Because 2 coaches have not allowed him to do it.  And in a real Hail Mary scenario the throw is  further than the clip shown and likey doesn’t allow a clean setup. You can’t go over the top.  So you have to let WRs get downfield and the technical throw is going to be further and as you have to drop back to by time and likely won’t have an ideal setup.

      I can’t stand silent any longer.. He has s sickness.  It will defy any logic people try to bring.  He tried to deny us the freedom of having a negative opinion of a player simply by the color of our skin. Yet we have positive opinions of many black players  Love some of them   I guess they must be house *you know the word* if we like them   I bring it to this: let’s say you are black. are there black people that you don’t like? I brt there are.  But no white people are allowed to dislike them? Because they are maybe shitty people of shitty players or there is just something about them you don’t line. We have to drop this way of thinking.
