Taylor?

just talking LBs in general, since Luke also played on the inside and in 3-4, (though I thought this was incredibly stupid)…Taylor also played some (albeit very limited) middle

but yea generally the best played middle and also in a 4-3 (obviously)

Luke's game IQ puts him ahead Lewis. To me Luke is up there with Mike Singletary.

That's top of the top.

wait what? I don't think IQ was one of ray's weaknesses either> Ray might be the most feared linebacker in history. As great as he was and I do think he was superior to Ray in coverage that might be about it. Ray a much more devastating hitter. i give him the edge there.

You are a recent UNC fan????

I was too young to watch Taylor but I’ve watched everything I could find online of him back when I played for texas state (also a OLB)

funny thing - I think his first contract was like 6 years for 6 million dollars back then lol

how things have changed

43 vs 34 LBs

Ray was incredible against the run, physically intimidating and HOFer.

Luke was good against run and great overall.

2 systems, both excelling.  If Luke had made it 3 more years in the league, he would get the nod.

I would say the best people to ask would be the quarterbacks that played against both.  I think they are both great.  I loved watching the chess game between Luke and opposing quarterbacks.  They would line up Luke would diagnose, they would audible,  rinse and repeat.  I did not get to see Ray play as often, but he was a huge impact player and right up there in the greatest of all time.  I think the time Luke spent in the league puts him right in that conversation as well.

      T-Mac Jerseys?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      lol well that kinda ended up working out in the end, even though I still don't have my jersey yet. Was supposed to ship by tomorrow this time, but just got another email saying it was delayed another 3 weeks and because it's been delayed so long, I had to tell them to keep the order or cancel it, but gave me a 25% off my next order as an apology. Well, my original fear came true and they are now selling the FUSE version (but still not the Blue unfortunately) before the one I ordered was ever shipped. But that's awesome, because I was able to use that coupon to order the FUSE instead and then cancelled the original order.  So I got the jersey I wanted for only $6.30 more than the crappier version costs, and it also says it will be shipped immediately and get here early next week, or 2 weeks before the other was now supposed to be shipped out.

      I've watched this and think we are well underway.  Believe it or not, Bryce is a big part of this.  The way he bounced back with such grace.  And we've got a lot of young players who want to make their mark, Dave is giving them an opportunity.  I loved our draft.  I like the number of guys we brought in, and they will help build the culture we want under Dave.  We're getting closer, and I think we'll see more wins this year than most of the board. The right culture breeds winning, and winning builds the right culture.  Imho, it's coming.

      As others have said it's both. One creates the other. But it also takes time sometimes years. And there have been teams lately with new car smell coaching staffs that looked like they were putting it together quickly but things came crashing back down to Earth. Sustainability is the key. For that to happen the meddling of our owners has to stop and they cannot be tempted to return to their ways over any bump in the road either.
