Who was better.. Kuechly or Beason in his prime and pre injury?

As I've said a few times before, I didn't actively start following the Panthers until 2010/2011 (no not because of jumping on the Cam bandwagon.) although I do admit that us having the 1st overall pick really made my interest get a lot of steam and since then I have been a avid, die hard fan..

So with that said, besides the Arizona game in 2011 when Beason blew out his Achilles, I never really got to see him in his prime.. So if someone came up to you and gave you a choice between Kuechly or Beason and guaranteed that both would remain healthy and play at high levels, who do you got?

To answer your question, Beason was a great player. He had a ton of heart and had a way to lead men. He was one of the best speakers and was amazing at rallying the troops. He was a little undersized but was pretty darn fast. BUT he was no Luke. Luke will go down as one of the greats if he plays for many years. Not many players will have the opportunity to go down as one of the greats at his position.

Beason was good but probably a bit overrated.  Luke is great and is probably, if anything, a bit underrated.  Luke is on the way to being a first ballot Hall of Famer while Beason, even if he never got hurt, would have probably maxed out at 3-4 pro bowls.

      Yes. Cade 100% tripped and pitched it to Mafah.  That’s not in dispute.  We agree on that.  Mafah got the ball, fell to the ground and then attempted to complete the rest of the play….which was the lateral to the WR on the end around.  You are calling the lateral from Mafah to the end around WR the ball popping up.   It was whistled dead.   Then they ran another play.  the review then awarded the ball to SC after we ran another play for what happened after a play was whistled dead.   How does that part work lol?  How do you recover a ball if a play was whistled dead for a downed player prior to a recovery?  I think the refs screwed Clemson twice.   That’s not why they lost.  Please don’t think that is my argument.   They lost because Cade chocked and panicked at the end.  They lost because Sellers should have been put on the ground for a loss countless times and they didn’t.  They lost because our over loyal Dabo wouldn’t bench his favorite hurt RB.    Clemson lost for lots of reasons. SC deserved to win.  Those calls were bad though IMO.  They exist in every game.

      I can’t recall an NBA team with this many injuries.  It’s getting absurd at this point
