Kuechly needs a couple of ints or ffs to seal the deal. If we started Kuechly in the middle from the beginning, and kept him on the field from the beginning, Keek would have had over 200 tackles, and more turnovers. Thanks again for sabotaging the team Rivera.

The fact that Rivera limited his snaps the first 4 games is mind boggling.

He'll definitely be in consideration, but realistically I'm not sure if he has made enough game-changing plays or not. Us who have watched every down this season, know he has made some fantastic, momentum-changing plays, but the people who vote probably haven't watched every down like we have. And the first four weeks, although not his fault, won't be a crutch for the voting.

Remember he had a good name, resume, and reputation going into the draft and into the season. A lot of coaches, scouts, experts respect this kid. That will help him a lot. Not just that, all they have to do is go back and watch the Falcons game yesterday. How he played cat and mouse with Matt Ryan the whole game. People were crying all over how Vilma and Manning were going at it audibling plays in the Super Bowl. What Kuechly did with Matt Ryan was just as spectacular to watch. And that's coming from a rookie MLB.

I don't think it'll hurt him much if he doesn't get more turnovers. If he reaches 160tackles? Which I think it'll really happen, thats going to seal it for him.

Patrick Wiilis and Brian Cushing both won DROY. They had more turnovers and sacks than Kuechly but neither of them even came close to having the tackles Kuechly going to have.

Luke Kuechly as of right now: 130 tackles, 1sack, 1int

Demeco Ryans 2006: 125 tackles, 3.5 sacks, 1FF, 1int

Patrick Willis 2007: 135 tackles, 4sacks, 2FF

Brian Cushing 2011: 76 tackles, 4sacks, 2FF, 2 ints

You don't have to sell him to me, he has my vote. After this odd season, nothing will surprise me including Luke gettin jobbed for DROY.

      Strength of Schedule for 2025

      By countryboi · Posted

      The thing I hate about strength of schedule is that NFL teams change so much over a year and past success or failure doesn't really dictate future success or failure

      Considering you previously struggled to understand BTT despite it being explained in a video, write-up, and multiple replies, I get why this might be a little too complex for you. Happy to clarify again! Just let me know which part tripped you up this time. 😉

      a look at our 19 udfas

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      And, honestly, there's only so much you can attempt to do in the draft. And every draft pick is a roll of the dice. But that's where grabbing a ton of UDFAs, and targeting the best, makes a big difference. Sure, their individual chances of getting a hit here is less, but that shotgun pattern might just hit something.  Right now, we need bulk, partly to rebuild and partly to dilute the deep level of stank that has developed on this team in the last six years. If we're going to rebuild a culture built around culture, accountability and winning, then these UDFAs we bring in each season have to be the wash water that gets out that leftover dirt.  Canales seems to be a smart, culture-first, build up the good ones kind of guy. I like that and I hope he can keep it going here. But he was working against a locker room that had been taught to lose and taught to distrust or ignore coaches. He's got his work cut out for him, still. He does seem to have it moving in the right direction and that's something I was pretty amazed with by the end of last season.
