Somehow the great players rarely make good coaches thing is often brought up, except when the topic of Kuechly coaching comes to play.

What made Kuechly special is something that pretty easily translates to coaching.

Actually don't think he's going to be a coach though. His short foray with the Panthers was in scouting, but part of me wonders if his working so hard and putting so much time into football over the last several years burned him out a little.

Some guys can't do anything halfway. It winds up being better for them if they don't do it at all.

What is it that he has that other greats don’t?

Oh he looks up to him alright…

Seriously though Young is about as polished as it gets for interviews. I don’t see him having any blunders in front of the cameras. He is always going to say the right things. I believe his dad is a consultant and professional speaker so he probably gets a lot of it naturally.

(" Oh he looks up to him alright…") LOL 🙂

I'd love to have Cam on this team in some capacity but its not gonna happen. Just retire #1 and have a kickass ceremony

Agree!!! It will be a great celebration the day the Panthers honor Cam and retire the # 1 Jersey.

Willingness to spend a ridiculous number of hours a week watching and analyzing game tape. That's something coaches do regularly.

The argument can be made though that this translates more into the pro scouting role that he formerly had than it does coaching. Pro scouts don't just check out players. They look at film of other teams to help scout for tendencies, weaknesses and game planning ideas that they then give to the coaches who use it for teaching.

Can Luke teach others himself though? Honestly don't know. That's something former teammates good probably testify to one way or another.

i maintain that i think we should sign Cam just for QB sneaks and gadget plays. lining Bryce Young up for a QB sneak to push the pile is some funny stuff.

I've already said they should just have two extra linemen in on those plays and have them throw him over the pile 😐

There are plenty other greats that spend hours watching and analyzing tape. It’s been said Cam does this, Ray Lewis was notorious for spending numerous hours watching tape. Quite a few greats do this, which is one of the things that makes them great. 
 

Do you think Ray Lewis would make a great coach?

    • Appreciate that, bro!  And I could definitely see that with Cam.  Even though he’s a little younger than me, he is also someone I admire and feel a kinship with for a lot of various reasons. Funny enough, a few years after that encounter with Steve, I went to Charlotte with one of my friends whose brothers owned a moving company at the time.  He dropped me off uptown and went to work the day with them where I would wait until he got done and then we were gonna go to the Bobcats game that night.  So I walk all through that area for hours.  After awhile, I walk back towards the arena and sit in a bench on the backside of the arena, where the practice court and player’s entrance was.  As I’m sitting there, I look up and almost think I’m seeing things - I squint and blink my eyes a couple times just to be sure, and yes…  it’s one of my childhood heroes, Muggsy Bogues walking across the crosswalk and into the arena.  I think he was coaching the Sting then, iirc.  Part of me wanted to just say, “Hey!  Muggsy!  Thank you for the inspiration and memories!  You were one of my favorite players as a kid!”  But, I just watched him walk by and into the arena and thought, “that was cool!”  I also so Miguel Cotto a couple years back while in Orlando and told my kids who it was but didn’t say anything to him.  I think somewhere in my subconscious, that encounter with Steve really made me feel like the gamble on finding out if they’re receptive to interaction just isn’t worth finding out.  At the end of the day, no matter if they’re receptive inspired us or were a hero, unless they initiate it, I likely never will…  because again, they’re humans just like us.  Not anymore unique or special, they just have a highly visible and very public job that we get to watch and in some ways participate.  So, I just appreciate it for what it is.
    • I'm pleasantly surprised they gave it to Bryce Young over Josh Allen. Finally we're getting some respect. Now I'm just hoping the team follows this up accordingly and doesn't lay another egg.
    • What weird blood red moon has cast its spell?  What’s next, dogs and cats sleeping together? Bonus question:  Did Canales open up his playbook or did Bryce find an extra high gear in his stick shift?
