The odds of us keeping Klein are slim.  Seriously doubt that he'll stay here.   He is a good linebacker and should garner a lot of attention in the off season.

I believe playing time has a factor in compensatory picks.  Could we be allowing Luke extra time to recover and giving Klein more playing time to possibly increase our compensation when (if) he signs with another team?

There is no conspiracy around concussions. That's one injury you can't fake or come back from until cleared. 

Agreed....  Sorry I was traveling over the weekend and was only able to see the game and that Luke wasn't playing.  Last I saw he was back at practice so I assumed he was cleared and we just sat him for another week.

I'm not so sure about that. No one is Luke but he had decent coverage on Crabtree and Walford but Carr threw good passes. Not many systems require their LBers to be one on one on premier WRs like ours does. Remember Julio's long TD when they beat us last year? Luke had great coverage but the pass was perfect. But again how many defenses have LBers covering Julio 50 yards downfield? I don't think Klein is bad in coverage but he isn't Luke and in most defenses the MLB isn't covering Julio or Crabtree way downfield.

Also, correcting above. The primary part of compensatory picks is the contract yearly salary. They may tinker with the pick round if the player is a bust or makes the pro-bowl, but the new salary is the primary driver and some web sites have the levels down and they are fairly accurate.

Not many teams require their LB to cover Julio, bc they draft and sign DBs. We don't.

Everyone thought he was gold as our backup until he signed with the Cowboys and didnt do anything.

Connor was not gold. WTH is wrong with you. The dude was trash that's why we let him go. Dallas knew they weren't getting a starter in Connor. I swear some of y'all either throw poo randomly to see if it'll stick on the wall or hear voices.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By PootieNunu · Posted

      It's funny how the teams with the great QBs stay at or near the top of the league every season.  Yes it is a team game, but the QB has the biggest impact in most NFL football games.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      Look, no one is ever a perfect player.  Since the QB handles the ball on 100% of plays offensively (unless there's a direct snap to a RB or something), I can absolutely see where they get an outsized blame and gain from what happens at any given snap of a football game.   Theoretically, there shouldn't even be a stat or idea to a 4th quarter comeback or game winning drive because you should already have done that during the game.  Losers!  Right?  Just because you win late doesn't take away the fact you tried to lose the game for your team! I'm not a fan of that opinion, but again, I'm just a moron with a keyboard.   Bryce has limited tools.  Bryce has not inspired the same level of confidence in us as Cam Newton did in year 3.  I certainly get that.  We traded a TON of assets to get Bryce, and we still suck.  (I mean, since we've lost games, we're losers right?) I completely understand that some fans are just unhappy with a limited QB and a team that isn't performing well, unless the other teams are worse losers than we are. I will say this:  Bryce will fight until the end.  Sure, he's has some real loser football.   But in close games, he's doing his best to comeback (even against a winner of prevent D). Now is it better or worse if your QB plays their best ball in the first half and sucks 2nd half so long as they finish with 300 yards, 3 TDs for your fantasy points? Who said stats are for winners anyway?  The Panthers and Bryce has a long way to go.  I'm enjoying the winning right now.  Though I do start each game thinking "how will we fug this up today?" Because it's been such a poo show in the Tepper era.  Will he prove to be a legit starting NFL QB?  Maybe not here as evidence by our record with QBs who were high draft picks.

      Ive never liked the term game winning drives because they include games where the QB was part of or was the reason the team was behind in the first place. Ive been arguing against this stat since the Delhomme years. It should only count when the QB is out of the equation of reasons why the team fell behind in the first place and is at least half the reason why he led the last drive to give them a lead. It shouldnt count if they just hand it off most of the time and the RB is on fire and they go down and score a TD or FG.
