He's a JAG. We better not go through with paying this guy $10M next season.

Lots of tough decisions to be made. Coming into the year, Luke said this was the best linebacking corps he had ever been part. Now, they are facing the prospect of having to replace two of the three starts at LB.

The Butler (outright bust) and Shaq (disappointment) picks especially hurt because they were luxury picks at the time. We were deep and talented st thosse positions when those picks were made. They were made for the future. Now is that future and they're just not good enough. Meanwhile, we ignored obvious immediate needs to take these guys because evidently we just felt THAT good about them. Ouch.

Turns out Gettleman wasn’t such a great talent evaluator after all. He sure fooled me.

He will be cut easily and he saves us 9 mil. We will likely spend our offseason on reshaping the defense through FA and the draft. Going to be exciting trying to rebuild this defense around Kuechly.

    • No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.    
    • It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
