Kalil was 2nd team, the rest were 1st team...

Quarterback: Cam Newton, CAR ( +5.4 )

He lead the Panthers on a big comeback against the Bears, and did it with his arm as opposed to his legs. When he’s this good, the Panthers become a very difficult team to beat, while the Bears have now having gone up against our highest graded quarterback each of the past two weeks.

Tight End: Greg Olsen, CAR ( +3.6 ) Though he lost Steve Smith in the offseason, Cam Newton can still rely on tight end Greg Olsen. He looked his way nine times on Sunday, resulting in six receptions for 72 yards and a pair of scores. All that with a decent effort as a run blocker thrown in for good measure.

Linebackers: Luke Kuechly, CAR ( +5.5 ) and Thomas Davis, CAR ( +4.1 ) It’s the Carolina pairing of Kuechly and Davis starting at linebacker in our Team of the Week this week, with Kuechly the star of the show. He may have allowed nine receptions through the air, but they went for a total of just 47 yards. It was a similar story for Davis, who allowed four receptions for 20 yards, with both looking solid against the run too.

Doesn't seem to get enough snaps given the impact he makes. Only 34 snaps yesterday, second lowest of the season.

 

I don't think that's a coincidence that he played very well and had a low snap count.

 

It shows how important a d-line rotation is and also why losing Hardy and Alexander can severely damage our substitution plan.

    • I like that a lot; Ware from Troy and also Khalil Mack who played at University of Buffalo
    • I remember the Huddle consensus over the course of last season and the previous one. Lots of Bryce is a bust, we should've drafted a 4th slot WR, should've kept Wilks, should've kept an armless Cam, etc etc. So... yea... already thought about that. I wouldn't trust the Huddle to detail my car, let alone run a multi-billion dollar professional sports team. 😛
    • bold prediction, I think Mike Green will be the best pass rusher in this class, and thats even with abdul carter.  He reminds me of demarcus ware, not just in size and prowess, but even coming from a Sunbelt school (Ware from Troy, Green from Marshall).  I think he is passionate about the sport where I think Carter as the physical freak might not have the heart.  Thats the guy Im sold on and am gonna hammer the table for, I know he's not projected 8, but he is projected like 12-13, so if a slide back can happen and we still get the guy I want, I'm 100% on board. All that said, it takes 2 to tango, I think the Cowboys are the tango-er.  IMO theres a VERY good shot that Jeanty is available at 8.  Why does that matter?  Not only do the cowboys NEED a runningback (dak sucks without a run game), but MORE importantly, gee where did Jeanty play in high school.....Frisco TX, literally Dallas Metro.  Soo, RB is a position of need and the best RB and most blue chip draft selection that  could improve the offense immensly played IN dallas metro AND will be in range for them to move up and pick?  Do ya think Jerry Jones is gonna just say no to the Jersey Sales?  Jerry might have sexually assaulted a woman and attempted to prevent black people from going to school, but he's no idiot (he is).  IMO, we get a good enough package, prlly their first and third,  maybe a conditional later and we move to 12.  We get Green, they get Jeanty, everbuddy happy.
