Kuechly's personal foul

What did he do? They never showed, or if they did I missed it.

It was early in the game on a punt. Luke was in on punt coverage early in the game if I'm not mistaken. Seemed like there was some shoving going on after the whistle.  Luke was jawing with a random Ram player one punt then the next punt got into it shoving him and got a personal foul. Maybe someone else saw more. I thought it was odd Kuechly was in on special teams

I was listening on the radio and they kept the defense on the field due to the threat of the fake punt. Rams do it pretty often apparently. Luke picked a player up and body-slammed him according to the broadcasters.

Ah makes a little more sense. Funny that didn't stop the Panthers from having to burn a timeout on special teams when the Rams finally lined up for a fake punt

I thought it was comical. 44 or whatever dickbutt it was for the Rams went to take a shot at Luke and Luke gave him the business. Then 44 (dickbutt) proceeding to get up like he was mad and go after him again.

Plebs.

 

EDIT: The whole sequence reminds me of The Dark Knight. Now obviously blackmail vs. personal foul, but the core of my post lies within.

I remember seeing it but didn't have sound to know that there were offsetting penalties so I didn't think much of it. Luke body slammed the guy when blocking I believe and pretty sure it was before the whistle. Then he just starts to walk back to his bench like a badass and the other guys gets up after the whistle and comes after him before other players intervened while Luke's still just walking to the bench. Was hilarious at the time. Honestly looked like Smitty bodyslamming a DB like he used to here.

Fisher is all about the fakery, did it to us during our 03 run. That was an embarrassing game. I think something similar happened in 11 too. Hasselbeck ran like a 30 yard bootleg off PA.

    • I was watching a YouTube and it was said that scout and GM insider types were saying the NIL had killed rounds 4-7. I don’t know that I buy it, seems like it might for a year or maybe two but then those guys have to move on.  NCAA is apparently about to give 5 years of eligibility. It is gonna skew those entrants older maybe.   
    • Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that. 
    • I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
