What does taking bad angles have to do with a shoulder? Thats mental.

Trying to avoid leading with that shoulder.  

This.  It makes a lot of sense now in hindsight to me...  bc many of the angles he took, he wouldn't approach a player head on and squared up.  There was multiple times against the Saints where it appeared he had a ball carrier sized up, and it looked like he almost stepped to the side of them and then tried to tackle.

Explains why he didn't look 100%, specifically taking un-Luke-like angles throughout the year, especially late.

I think the shoulder injury could definitely play a role in that. But, I also think Luke has to hold back more than he'd like when he's on the field in order to avoid another concussion. I'd rather have Kuechly play at 85% (still better than just about every LB in the NFL) than not at all.

They must've gave the team a pretty good discount with the amount of shoulder surgeries we've been having lately

I think it goes back to that hit that knocked him out of the eagles game. Weird angle and a huge lineman = bad shoulder. 

 

Pretty sure that that was his right shoulder but could be wrong.

That was an weird play and would make sense but I believe the hit was on the left side.

Better a shoulder injury than another concussion
