Show me where I freaked out in my OP. I tried as hard as possible to make it absolutely clear that Im not worried or hating.

I wanted to hear some opinions on his game the last few weeks and you provided nothing. 3 pages, and you were the only one to completely misunderstand this thread.

I got you. But this is the huddle. You know, you can't talk negative or make it seem like you are. Fans will come after your throat. The only person you can do that to is Fua.

He did it last year. Why not this year. I'm not bashing him though.

Keek didn't have a good game last night and the rams game. He was stuffed pretty good by the full back last night on one play. A play that shouldn't have happened to the almighty Luke.

Kuechly still leads the NFL in tackles since the start of 2012.

Didn't have a good game?.....

We have a top 3 defense....I wonder who runs the show on the field....LOL. He does more than just run around blowing up offenses.

He's been awesome since the day he was drafted

For anyone who could possibly take this thread seriously (and I hope that even on the Huddle that's no one), there are a few reasons for Luke's current PERCEIVED change in play.  If you have any doubt or question the issue whatsoever, let's get this out of the way first: He's not even halfway through his sophomore year and EVERY player misses a tackle or is slow off a block on occasion.  This is somewhat amplified by the fact that he is so fast and rangy, and has such a nose for the ball, that he has a shot on tackles most guys would still be two or three yards away from, so yeah, sometimes he only gets an arm on the guy instead of a wrap.  If you saw the recent video where he was wired for sound, you'll note he was pissed at himself for "already missing two."

 

We all know there are teams that put a spy on QB's, but how often have you heard of an LB being targeted like that?  Well, it is happening with Luke.  If it isn't game planned, it's being called often at the line by the opposing QB.  You could hear it last night and saw the "spy" on Luke the previous game.  Another factor addressed by Rivera in his recent presser was that the front four is playing so well, and the secondary has so surprisingly stepped up, that there simply isn't as much work for Luke to do, or rather, not as much slack for him to pick up.  Therefore, his solo T's are down, and the need for him to assist finishing off isn't as great because others are finally getting "hit, grab, and wrap."  That hasn't stopped him though.  He still tied for the most total tackles last night, and even with these changes is 16th in the NFL for TT's and not too shabby numbers on PD's and INT's either.

 

Add to the above the additional duties of leading the defense.  If you watched the Sound Fx vid, you'll recall this is one busy young man, constantly pointing out assignments, correcting mistakes, keeping tempers in check, hounding the opposition with a good dose of trash talk, yet still finding the time to critique himself.  What more could anyone want out of an MLB, or ANY player for that matter?  Luke is more than playing just fine.  He's the lynchpin of our defense, and you'd better hope and pray that will be true for the next decade, at a minimum.

People look at Luke's stats and say he is having an off year.

 

He is not making as many tackles because the DLine is playing much better.  More stops at the LOS mean few tackles by your LB.

 

Now for last night, the announcers even said the playing field was crap.  Everyone was slipping.

    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
    • 7 wins this year and some of those against really good teams and yall think Canales might get fired? Lol Good luck getting a better coach in here if that happens.
