Luke is the projected #1 LB in the year 2016 says ESPN

1. Luke KuechlyCarolina Panthers In 2011, the Panthers found their offensive quarterback of the future in Cam Newton. A year later, they did the same on the defensive side of the ball with another first-round draft pick. Kuechly, who just turned 22, led the NFL in tackles as a rookie with 164, and he's an able run and pass defender. He's a very good athlete with toughness, instincts and leadership qualities to boot. The Panthers have the makings of an excellent front seven, and Kuechly will navigate the ship for years to come.

I hate everything ESPN puts out so I will reserve comment. I can't rip them when they say we suck and praise them when they say we're good. ESPN can suck it. That said, I agree with those morons on the above post.

yea it's not going to take till 2016....thats 4 seasons. not the way the guy played his rookie year without even starting at the mike in the beginning and still learning with nfl offseason workouts. If he remains healthy i give it not this year but next but definitely 2015 unless some stud comes out of college.

    • It’s wild to me that so many of you guys are threatened by the idea of an opposing team fan who is polite in 2025. He’s been posting here on and off for years, usually when our teams play each other which hasn’t been for a while. I’d maybe understand this treatment if it was a falcons or saints fan, but packers fans in general are one of the nicer fan bases as long as you aren’t another NFC north team (especially the bears).   
    • Some players excel on the big stage, while others freeze and succumb to the pressure. I’m not convinced Cam took a dive. I think he didn’t handle the stage very well. The pressure got to him and he folded. He wouldn’t be the first quarterback or player to struggle in a Super Bowl. Two HOF examples - John Elway and Jim Kelly. The 2002 MVP, Rich Gannon, threw 5 interceptions against the Bucs. Poor performances happen.  Unless of course you believe all these players threw the games they played in, but if that occurred, surely someone by now would have admitted taking a dive? 🤷‍♂️
    • It was always a matter of time with Cam’s playing style and a shorter shelf life than passers that protect themselves. I suppose Cam could have still been playing in 2028 ten years after the hit took place, but he would need to have evolved as a quarterback and become more of a passer than the dual threat maestro he was. It’s sad because it makes us think of what could have been, but I do feel it was always a matter of time until all the hits took their toll.
