BC to retire Kuechly's Jersey


Recommended Posts

I heard about it on 610 this morning.  Unfortunately, this article also talks about Matt Ryan as Boston College will be retiring his jersey as well.  I'm sorry...the good news is that their jerseys will be retired during separate ceremonies, so Ryan's celebration won't taint Kuechly's.

Boston College will retire the jerseys of Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan and Carolina Panthers linebacker Luke Kuechly in separate ceremonies during the 2016 season.

I guess there is something to be said in that in only took Luke 4 years to get his jersey retired while it took Ryan 8.

This is the Golden Age of Panthers Football folks! When have we ever had 4-5 HOF locks on one team?

I'm definitely optimistic, and probably considered a homer, but really 4 - 5 HOF locks?

Who besides Luke & Cam?

Glad you asked...

2 possibles:

Thomas Davis

Ron Rivera

3 locks IMO:

Cam Newton

Luke Keuchley 

Greg Olsen (watch!)

Dude I love TD but you're delusional if you think he has any shot at the hall.

The book on Thomas Davis isn't closed yet. If he can continue to play at a high level and the team has continued success it's possible, that's an IF

He's one of my favorite players ever, but TD has absolutely no shot at the HOF.  Neither does Olsen for that matter, unless he suddenly becomes Gronk 2.0 these next few years and gets a ring along the way.

TD is at the ass end of his career and he simply just doesn't have the accolades for entry into the HOF.  He's 33 and just now got his first Pro Bowl.  Olsen is a similar case, but he's got 2 Pro Bowls and isn't quite as close to the end as TD is.

Kalil has a far better shot (and a realistic one TBH) than TD and Olsen

    • Lol. The Texans are literally one of Bryce's six career NFL wins. WTF are you talking about?
    • Yeah, I mean it is a statistical fact and also part of literally a player evaluation. Winston has literally lost dozens of games in his NFL career due to crippling TO's. It's just who he is. Look, it's fun when those insane throws work and he is leading you back from some crazy deficit. But those success are rare. It's why his career GWD count is so low. He's fun but he is fundamentally built to lose games.  If you are talking about a backup QB, you are literally already losing in the first place. That's how you see a backup QB and that's overwhelmingly what they tend to do. Rookie QB's almost always benefit from veteran QB's. Same as literally any other position in the NFL. Why do you think that you so often hear that from the playera themselves? As for Bryce NEEDING one, no he sure as poo shouldn't this late in the game. But he also shouldn't have needed this fuging long to get his fuging footwork straightened out either. Yet here we are.
    • Comfortability is the primary reason. They don't want to hurt Bryce's confidence. But I say if his confidence is that fragile that healthy competition which makes everyone better is enough for them to keep making Andy Dalton rich then Bryce was never going to be the guy anyway. Give me the QB who sees the competition amongst his peers and uses it to take it to the next level. Instead we get the guy who comes out looking like a deer in the headlights against the Texans after we've done everything possible to appease him. Definition of complacency.
