Kuechly Interview - Panthers.com

Recommended Posts

17 minute interview with Kuechly posted on Panthers.com yesterday.  Hadn't seen it shared here yet.

There aren't enough superlatives in the dictionary to describe Kuechly.  His approach to people, life and football is inspiring.  That's my MLB!

Back when he was supposed to be immature and not a leader 

Yeah, j just found it interesting because he's a defensive player. Cam said he actually thought luke was a tight end at one point before we drafted him. (just goes to show how a lot of players don't pay attention to college ball or the draft).

beason was the leader of the defense at the time, and Luke was kind of an unknown, don't think any of us really expected what he turned out to be. So it was just interesting that he would've taken him out for dinner.

He seems like he is an honest to goodness nice person who cares mostly about one thing...playing football. I see him as a coach someday. He seems almost single minded about preparing for and playing football. Making the team better. His dad must be a stand up guy to instill in Luke to go right up to people, look them in the eye and introduce yourself...welcome them. Great presser from him.

I watched all 3 of them last night on Panthers.com. Made me wonder if there is a limit to how m any players can go out for media day during the Super Bowl and who they would pick. If I were Ron I'd leave it to the players to decide who goes (starting with first dibs for the veteran players who want to do it). Of course, we have to get past the cards but I'm confident.

Also, did you notice how Luke lit up when talking about the cardinals? Like he is really excited to play them and hurdle that obstacle. Great stuff.

Watched this last night, noticed something that makes me appreciate Luke even more... At about the 10:08 mark, a reporter asks "What concerns you the most about the Cardinals?" Watch the smile Luke gets when he answers, he is excited to be challenged. he had about the same expression for all the other questions, but that grin after that question...... Fug yeah, Keep Pounding...

    • Biiiiiig eyeroll on this.  First, Look at historical stats of the most recent historical great DBs.  I plucked 3, Revis, Sherman, and Norman (cuzz he was our guy).  Combined post age 30, there are TWO pro bowls between those 3 and wanna get this...ZERO seasons with 16 games started.  ALL missed time.  It is RARE that Corners survive that long in the NFL and its about time we started recognizing this fact.  Jaycee is a good bet because it hasnt been anything seriously devastating injury wise, and with his sample size he could and should be an incredible piece for the panthers through age 30. Jaire kinda flops on the other side, hes 28...so hes under 30, but he wants his payday before it comes up, hes also been injury prone lately.  Bulk of the contract will be on opposite side of 30.  Will both of these guys help us be better in 2026?  SURE!  No doubt, but the question is, will these guys help us past 2026...not sure. The investment isnt worth the risk, nor would the ROI be anywhere close to worth it.  Neither guy is moving us from a 6-8 win team to a 8-10 team, period. My point is we're in this state a 6-8 win team IMO and he projects us as  a 4-6 win team.  EVEN if we think Jaire or Ramsey will make us a 6-8 win team, it in NO WAY is worth the money or capital to move that much just to suck kinda less.  
    • I assumed he was retiring but apparently he plans on playing multiple more seasons.  Florida is gonna have trouble holding onto everyone.  Happens to all teams that have that much success.
    • I hate Marchand, but if he became a free agent.....
