NFL Films tribute to Luke


Captain Morgan

Recommended Posts

there may have been more violent linebackers. guys who hit harder. guys who got more counting stats. but none of them made their teammates so much better. my lasting memories of watching him play will be him pushing guys into the gaps he needed them in and watching the play come right at them. it's rare to have a guy that is an absolute unicorn in terms of physical ability that is as obsessively committed to the nuance of the game. yeah, maybe he looks about the same on paper as bobby wagner but everybody that ever watched those two men play in their heart of hearts knows that luke was the guy. you knew he was going to be a hall of fame player in his rookie season. his last season as a player broke my heart because you could tell the system change limited how much he could shot call at the LOS and how uninspired all those flyover guys like mccoy and irvin started to play once it was clear we weren't going to be playoff competitive.

The man was truly everything you want in an NFL player, I truly am grateful for his efforts, but part of me is truly happy he retired, junior seau was one of my favorite players to watch when I was little, and his shadow hangs heavy over people who play that position for a long time at a high level.
