  • NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reports ex-Panthers MLB Luke Kuechly is "open to the idea" of coaching.

    Kuechly is done as a player but wants to "stay involved in some capacity." He could land an assistant role as soon as 2020. A leader on the field during his eight-year career, Kuechly should make an easy transition if he decides to get into coaching.

If he does get into coaching I doubt it'd be this early I'm sure hes still having a hard time with the decision he made. He'll probably need some time away completely to make peace with it THEN I could see him coming back to coach

Seven months until August, and don't forget how fast he's able to process things.

Rationalize, compartmentalize -- call it whatever -- he can do it faster than ordinary mortals.

If he WANTS to coach next season, he can be ready to do just that.

Some say that if Luke Kuechly does coach, that it won't be right now because he was so emotional about his decision to retire. I beg to differ. I think now would be the perfect time for him. Yes he desires to be on the field but he can be on the field through the guys he's coaching, putting his heart and vision into them, getting them to move like he moved and see what he sees...

Maybe we'll still hear that cry on field of battle...Lukkkkkkkkke

      Some ALL-22 clips…

      They're sneaky good.  Very good.  And they had the personnel to match perfectly against us.   Seattle played really straight forward cover-2 and cover-3 pretty much all day.  They had some nice simulated pressures in cover-3 that baited us to move more quickly than we needed to.  They just totally cooked us.  It was a full Macdonald checkmate against Canales & the offense.       The recipe: Contain the run game enough (check) and have the LB & secondary athleticism to shut us down in the air (check)      For any team that can match our OL's run blocking, just run a cover 2/cover 3 all-day.  Similar to what the Saints did.  Pepper in some simulated pressures to bait Bryce while you're at it.  Bryce doesn't play the best against zone.  Huge weakness, averages like -.09 EPA/P in his career.  How that actualizes - from my eye test as a silly fan, he just doesn't have the velocity for the shorter/intermediates from in the pocket to the outside to get guys the ball in space vs zone.  His best games (Rams, Falcons) was when they had a blitz we caught, went man, or it was a critical down with a misdirect/PA and he had the space to throw a nice ball, sometimes with anticipation.  23rd rated QB against zone.  24th completion percentage against zone.  42nd against zone ANY/A with a clean pocket.  ANY/A being one of the more consistent correlations to wins you can find out of the EPA stuff you'll see nowadays.  He doesn't even crack the top 32 for eligible QBs.

      Reminder: A team lead by Matt Rhule/Steve Wilks got us this result…..

      well, I have always said Sam Darnold is Sam Darnold.  Which he always proves to be.  NYJ Sam was at BOA Sunday.   I think Bryce criticism is a one of one.  Because he is unicorn.

      JT's Stats for the 2025 season. REC: 29 / YARDS: 190/ TD: 1/ Yards per catch: 6.6 The data seems to indicate that JT is not a huge component of our offense. His presence (or lack of it) is not what cost us that game yesterday. Sanders is a big guy but he seems to go down as soon as contact is made. He hasn't produced any "wow moments" in during his 2 years with the team. So far he's proven to be a JAG. I'd rather see Tremble and Evan on the field as our # 1 and #2 TE's.
