Klein...

[French Navy]

He got a personal foul call on a Quarter Back.  Its the Unicorn, its the elephant man's bones off the coast of Madagascar.

 

Seriously this.

 

Klein in his first start managed to get a sack which resulted in a personal foul on the QUARTERBACK. 

 

It's like the ultimate in drive killers. Unbelievable in his first start. 

[DaveThePanther2008]

whats really crazy is this defense is really, really, really young.

 

I saw the locker room piece and Klein was answering a question.  For a split second I thought they were talking to a high schooler.  He looks so young.

 

If we manage to keep them all we are going to be a dominate defensive team for a long time.

Seriously Klein may become a stud. Is Gettleman this good? Is first draft we nail the 1,2,5? A couple of undrafted steals. Makes me think kugbila is going to bethe second coming of Larry Allen.

If I'm coaching this team Klein just won the starting job over Blackburn. He's at LEAST no worse right now, younger, more upside, and more athletic. No reason not to start the rookie, IMO.

I hope Monday night is the passing of the torch......Pats lose and start their decline...we take over as the best team in the NFL over a 10 year period.

PFF had him graded at +1.4 for the game on 32 snaps.

1 sack and 3 tackles all of which we defensive stops.

Blackburn is -2.5 for the season.

[SmashNDash]

Agreed, Klein should start, or at the very least be in a heavy rotation at this point.  Blackburn is hurting and is our only real depth, he needs to rest and be saved in case with need him in January.

Rivera called him Kuchley 2.0 and was laughed at.

Maybe the former SB winning LB, outstanding DC and HC knows more about the players than we do.

Nah...that's crazy talk.

There's no way he's better than Kuechly right now and the fact that he had a great game doesn't change that. Kuechly's making plays everywhere and he's the one making pre-snap adjustments at MLB. He's as close to a Peyton Manning on the defense as it gets right now. And with that said, Klein played outstanding himself and they probably found a gem in the draft when they selected him. I look forward to seeing him make more plays and get more reps. But that was a mislabel Rivera gave him then and it still is. You do understand a 2.0 of something is a better, more robust and upgraded version of an original, right?

I think you're getting a little geeky about the 2.0. I don't believe it was Ron's intention to suggest AJ would be better than LK. I think he was just trying to suggest they are players of the same ilk.

Collin Klein might take issue to this.

[Snake]

Gettleman is great, no doubt, But I just wanted to speak up for Coach Rivera.

This is his defense.

Without DGs help he would still be using Fua as his NT. DGs scouting has made this team a contender this year with Rivera changing his philosophy.

I don't think Rivera's 2.0 comment was meant that way. Luke seems like he will be a once in a generation linebacker. Klein has high upside but not all-pro potential like Luke.

[Kuech the Sneak]

Loved his game Sunday

[csx]

All of a sudden we have armchair software engineers criticizing Rivera's comments.....awesome
