Beason sets record for tackles

Recommended Posts

Panthers linebacker Jon Beason set a new team single-season record for tackles this season with 169.

That topped the 160 he had as a rookie in 2007. Along with his 159 stops in 2008, Beason now ranks third in team history with 478 tackles. He rails only Mike Minter with 953 and Mike Rucker with 553. Dan Morgan had 452.

Badass or not he can not take on guards to allow another LB to make a stop, which is what a 3-4 ILB has to do.

Go to a 3-4 you lose Beason.

Look to Vilima when the Jets went to a 3-4

Actually let me retract that.

Beason is 6'0 237

Willis is 6'1 240

Perhaps he could do it after all.

The stat that jumped out at me was

now has more career tackles than Dan Morgan

Dan Morgan only played in I think 49 games across seven seasons. And has:

386 Tackles 5 Interceptions 12 Passes Defensed 7 Sacks and 3 Forced Fumbles

Beason who has played in and started every game in his three year career which is 48 games. So in one fewer game played than Dan Morgan Beason has:

420 Tackles 7 Interceptions 21 Passes Defensed 3 Sacks and 1 Forced Fumble.

Morgan was good but I contend that Beason is far better than Morgan at this point. Both statistically and by being able to stay healthy* through three entire years thus far.

edit: He was actually playing pretty hurt according to his blog, but he played and was effective so I will consider that healthy.

NFL.com lists him at 142.

112 and 30 Assists. 3 Picks, 3 Sacks, and a Forced Fumble.

Number two in the league overall in tackles behind Willis.

How did this guy not go to the Probowl?!

2 words...... Small Market or Losing Team.

    • He’s been every bit as much of the problem as anyone else. You cant remove him from that fact, he is just as much part of the team and in THE most important position on the field. But this is the first season he’s seen any kind of continuity in his team and coaches. And he’s shown flashes here and there. But we do need more out of him going forward a lot more if we are going to be successful 
    • Bryce isn’t great and super mid. But I think can be a game manager. What do we think is out there? Daniel Jones isn’t going anywher. Mac Jones? Zach Wilson? Pickett. I’m just not sure what’s out there that is much better without having to give up a ton of capital. Rather take one more step closer to contention with our early rounders next year with FS and LB help. Make this  place where dang they got a defense and a WR1 and solid RB room. I can win with that and want to be here 
    • AR15 is if Justin Fields was fragile and his teammates hated him. No thanks. Ya'll think you hate watching Bryce Young? Wait until your QB can't even complete a 7 yard pass over the middle, which Fields and Richardson can't do. If the draft class was better, I could absolutely see the Titans moving on from Ward already if they got the #1 pick. But so far the college QB's haven't impressed enough. They'll have flashes, but then follow it up with a very meh game. Kyler is already done in Arizona, but he has a ridiculous contract and he's basically Bryce that likes to scramble, so no thanks. If Lawrence can't produce with that team in Jacksonville, what do you think he'll do here? He's tall Bryce who can throw deep but can't make the 4th down throws and crumbles in the red zone. No thanks. I do think Canales wants to move on from Bryce, his body language says so even in wins. He treated Bryce pretty odd this week and Bryce looked checked out in the Packers game. But unless they make another risky trade, its going to be slim pickings. Basically our hopes lie in hitting early in the draft with a Mateer, Nussmeier, Beck type or finding a random backup free agent that has another gear to hit.  I think even with the draft being wishy washy, 4-5 QB's will be taken in the top 7. A lot of teams are just that desperate.
