Beason wants to stay in the middle

Recommended Posts

One play? He gave up three huge passes over the middle. Getting caught up in play-action is his fault. He has to be able to read that. He's not ready. Needs more experience. I know how hard you were calling for the organization to draft him back in April, so I don't expect you to waiver.

Lynch was the NFL's leading rusher heading in and the Hawks had the worst passing attack in the NFL....so yeah, getting caught is simpy realistic.

And yeah, I was a leading voice in the draft Luke crowd....bc he can ball and I feared Beason would spend at least a season being a shell of himself. Luke flat out balled Sunday and Beason is a shell of himself.....so?

No rookie is flawless.....doesn't mean he isn't ready. Was ready Sunday unless you are just a Beason homer that wants a subpar liability that can't tackle at MLB

Thats your opinion, my opinion is that Beason is the better MLB when he's healthy.

beason isn't healthy so him being better than a rookie 5 games into his career when healthy is a mute point.....

Luke if he progresses as expected will he better at his prime than Abeason in his

lmao, one game and people want Kuechly in the middle? Strange how quickly some of you forget how he was absolutely destroyed in pass defense for big gains this past Sunday....but knowing this place all the blame will be put on someone else instead of the actual defender who was responsible (Kuechly).

I like Luke, but not good enough to hand the reigns over from a Pro Bowler. Sorry but I'm going to side with logic on this one.

Beason being a pro bowler in the past means nothing.....he isn't that caliber now. Poo happens.

Luke is young and flawed. He easily gave us our best game at the position of the season and it only took him one attempt.

And if you can't understand how a LB might overplay a play action against Seattle occasionally ...you just aren't willing to think rationally.

Beason was awful in coverage the 4 games prior. Substantially worse than Luke's performance in the middle.

I wanted Beason to stay inside and get Luke up to speed outside but Beason, one of my all time favorites, has simply been terrible in his comeback.

yeah amazingly a rookie linebacker is somewhat raw in pass defense.

his instincts and diagnosis are through the roof. beason was originally drafted to play WLB and is actually a little undersized to play the middle which was one of the knocks on him coming out. remember, he got the start at MLB because of dan morgan's injury problems and ended up sticking there. the problem now is that davis is playing so well that the number of snaps to go around is getting smaller.

I don't think Kuechly is so much better than Beason that he should be starting MLB at this point. Instinctive is one thing but experience is something else. I think the real decision will be done in the offseason/training camp next year. I don't think Kuechly playing the will hurts us as much as Beason playing the will. 100% to 100% I still at this time give the edge to Beason. Even at 80% to 100% Beason gets the edge. With a year of experience however I think it's going to get closer and closer.

This is what I believe, Kuechly down the road is the better linebacker. Even with Beason at 100%, I would have still started Kuechly in the middle because overall, Kuechly has way more talent than Beason. Yes, Kuechly projects to have way more talent than the pro bowler Beason.

    • Well, the whole rationale used  for the high IQ point guard is it would allow us to spend our resources elsewhere….instead it’s all our first rounders ever since to support the bad pick.  Reality is our front office is just bad.  If you wanted Bryce Young you were going to need to do something unique and special for him.  Instead we just insert a QB with traditional tools into old NFL concepts that pair with traditional talent and our pass game is whack
    • Good to see some other folks are speaking the same language on this. It's simple common sense. But it seems like there's a disconnect due to the misplaced value the team has put on Thielen because he was the only vaguely good veteran WR willing to sign with the Panthers after we traded away DJ Moore. That time has come and gone. We have two first round WR's on the roster now.
    • Yeah I’m turning this into a Bryce can’t play QB thread. Just stating that offense was a poo show two years ago. No QB is succeeding in that, much less a rookie. I feel like it’s become a common debate strategy on here to just jump down the rabbit hole of saying he is just bad in so many ways when any certain point gets countered. If that doesn’t work we can deflect to how poorly this team has been ran. In regards to the actual point we are debating, the OL was struggling, half of the skill players aren’t on a roster, Mingo has done nothing with his new team and the staff are either not coaching or on their 3rd team in 3 years, aside from McCown (I liked McCown too). Honestly about as bad as it gets. No need to try to state how good of an offense it was billed it because that has been proven false at this point.
