Heath Evans just called Brian Wagner the best MLB in the League

[The Lobo]

It isn’t just Evans who thinks this. There are many others who think that, even non seahawk homers.

[Proudiddy]

He takes every opportunity to jab at us when he can.  Luke is better.  That being said, he isn't having a good year.

[KillerKat]

Let me put it this way. Luke will go into the HOF. Wagner will not.

Hoping he has a great career as a Panther and the concussions he has been dealing with don't hurt his career longevity in the NFL.

Wagner’s playing out of his mind this year. He’s an elite LB and deserves praise.

That being said, he hasn’t even sniffed the tier Luke’s on.

Not saying Luke Kuechly isn’t the best but Wagner is close imo.

NFLN’s Heath Evans, former Aints fullback called Seahawks Brian Wagner the best MLB in the League. Said he was bigger, faster than Luke and diagnosed plays quicker... he also said he didn’t mean any disrespect towards Luke, so I guess that makes it ok... 

Mother Fug you Heath Evans

Heath Evans is a post(I think)-roidal brain-damaged moron.

And I say that sincerely as an Auburn alumni and fan.

not really. there is not a single LB even close to him in coverage outside of TD or run support. And no one else who runs the defense like a QB before the play nearly close to him. Luke is the best at all 3 of those things. Only thing he lacks is pass rush but 4-3 LBs aren't asked to do that much and his excellence everywhere else makes that largely irrelevant and just an added bonus when he keeps improving there.

Coverage wise is close between Kuechly and Deion Jones in their first two years.(including playoffs)

Luke Kuechly - 15 PD’s, 6 INT’s in 33 games 

Deion Jones - 20 PD’s, 5 INT’s in 30 games. 

Two of the best cover LB’s reside in the South.

Dear baby Jesus, If we are going to be the six seed, can you please let Seattle win the west and clinch the three seed?  

I’d like to see Cam and Co. Travel northwest and end the Seahawks season.

The fact that you think TD is close to him in coverage shows how much your homer glasses are on.

Bobby Wagner is absolutely close to Luke, though I'd still say Luke is better.

Guys, who cares what this guys says.

He also didn’t think Kamara is all that great either. Some guys here don’t pay much attention to anyone not a Panther.
