Is their more to his ankle that we know?

Im real curious about KK, because he is NoWhere even close to himself.  And you cant blame Poe, because their were plenty of games in the past where Star was out with a injury and KK ate the OL's lunch.  Poe hasnt looked all that bad imo, I think it has to do with more of KKs struggles.  

 

A dominant interior pressure sets the tone of the D.

If Cox in philly goes down, so does their D

If Aaron Danold goes down, so does the Rams D.

I can’t remember what the stat was but I saw on twitter last week that our defense allows something like half as many yards per play when KK is in the game versus when he isn’t in the game. So even though he is showing up on the stat sheet he is still making a big impact.

He's dropped off immensely since getting the big contract, to he honest.

He had an outlier year (2015), just like quite a few others on the Panthers squad.

He's good, but not quite as good as a few other DT's at the top right now.  I also think that's because we don't have a ton of talent at the DE position at this point.

The DE's have been underpar

But

They are no different than 2015

If we designate him as our 2nd (Matt Kail) post June 1st cut we’re saving 13 million in cap space while only taking on 4 mill in dead money.

He’s definitely worth considering for our 2nd post June 1st designation given the amount of money he is set to make.

Can we trade Gettleman for a day to make that move?

Short has come up short.

He is WAY too valuable to cut, in any instance if he's healthy...I can see many forgot about our DT woes before the likes of Star and KK.

Agree with @The Huddler 100%, we didn't realize just how important Star was to our running game, and KK's production.

Have to disagree. KK's been elite up until this year imo. He was very good for us last year despite it not showing on the stat sheet.

This year, he seems to have taken his first hit imo.

Oh, I'm not here saying that he should go....Far from it.

I'm a big fan, but he did have a huge year in 15', and it seems to be a bit of an outlier with 11 sacks, and a career high outside of that of 7.5.

However, Cam, Olsen, Oher, Ginn, etc.......all had outlier years that year, and we should probably remember that.

      Holy poo, App State is 5-7 and in a bowl game. LOL! The dozens in attendance look thrilled to be there. Attendance is so light half the players' parents didn't even bother.

      I have said that about Morgan in his playing days looking at facing Bryce, he would be licking his chops. To present a case for Dan having some sanity. I mean no way a real player would fear him, right? But I am not sure any more.

      Bryce missed a number of opportunities yesterday. There were guys open but he had either already moved on from them or never even got to them in the progression. He doesn't have a guy right now that he trusts. It was TMac earlier in the season, but he and TMac are not on the same page all the time, and Coker is actually the best WR on the team right now. I know that hurts some feelings, but it's true. The oline got their lunch money taken all day. It was really bad. In both the run game and the pass game. You could see when the QB lost all confidence in them and that mental clock started to shorten. But as a QB you have to push through that and stand in the pocket, go through your progressions, and deliver an accurate ball on time.  But yeah, my biggest take away is that this offense lacks speed and a true playmaker. A couple of solid guys but no true playmaker. As much as BY checked down to RBs, they couldn't make a guy miss in one one opportunities. And they weren't even LBs. They were DBs. You have to make that guy miss.  If they're serious about winning right now and not about player development, then Jimmy Horn needs to take XLs snaps. They only put him in to influence the deep safety with fly routes - XL can do that. Jimmy can run a lot more of the route tree than XL right now. Also Etienne needs to play more snaps. If BY is gonna be a checkdown king, then they need someone that can actually do something with the ball in space. Interior oline is weak. They aren't very consistent getting to the second level. Outside runs are this team's bread and butter. Gotta embrace that.
