Luke Robbed of NFC DPOM

[dldove77]

They gave it to Tyrann Mathieu. 

Mathieu: 27 tackles, 2 INTs. That's a solid game from Luke. 

Luke: 43 tackles, 3 INTs, 2 FFs, 1 TD. 

 

 

[LUUUUUKE]

I'm pretty pissed about this snub.

I shall play harder on Sunday to prove my disdain at the powers that snubbed me

It's ok, I'm pretty sure Super Bowl MVP is better than MVP of the month.

At least Gano got the ST Player of the Month award.

[Zaximus]

Yeah that's kind of confusing.

Luke single handed pretty much ended that Cowboys game lol.

Then his game ender a few weeks earlier.

People are starting to complain that the panthers are hogging all the awards

[Newtcase]

That's really silly.  Teeball mentality, everyone gets a trophy regardless of who earned it.

[KendrickPanther]

Are we going to get outraged every time someone picks us 2nd for the rest of the season? It's getting out of hand.

[dldove77]

I haven't seen all the Cardinal games, so I don't know what he's done in the way of pass breakups and game changing tackles, but three interceptions, two forced fumbles, and a touchdown are pretty impacting. Just don't see how they come to this conclusion. 

[Cat]

That's freakin ridiculous.

[frash.exe]

The only thing that can be gleaned from this as sort of a positive is that the team seems to get extra motivated when we're snubbed.

I haven't watched Mathieu play much this season, but his month long stats aren't even better than our best Safety in that Span.

Coleman: 25 Tackles, 1 Sack, 4 INT's, 1 TD

That said, I can't say that I care, we've already won the first 2 DPOM awards, they would have to just rename "Best Defensive Panther of the Month" if we just dominated all season long.  Gotta give the pundits something to mull over as to why the Tardinals could beat us.

I'd been trying to figure out during November who would get NFC DPOM, Kuechly or Coleman. After Thanksgiving, I just thought Luke wrapped it up. Glad you brought this back up.

The same thing that kept Luke from getting DPOM is what will give MVP to Cam
