Aints are already in hopes to have Luke as their ILB coach.

It was a joke thread in a series of other joke threads about various former players and coaches going the coaching staff including Jonathan Vilma, Mike Singletary, Colby Bockwoldt (who was a mediocre player), Zach Line (who was our FB and just retired), Wade Phillips, Terry Tate, and Ray Lewis.

Don’t take it personal. There are idiot posters there just as there are idiot posters here.

We all remember plenty of moments where Luke went nuts right before a play because he saw something.

This video does a good job a showing just how complicated the decisions he made in those moments were.

It's amazing the amount of information that he was able to process in just a matter of seconds.

I don't think anyone but a Seahawks fan would choose a prime Wagner over Kuechly.

Prime Luke is arguably the greatest middle linebacker to ever play.

Just so sad his prime years only lasted 3 to 4 seasons because of injuries. What could have been

This type of stuff just confirms that those great panthers defenses were Luke’s defenses. Ron had little to do with it.

As soon as Luke’s abilities started to slip and teams found ways to counter him, our D went down hill with it.

As soon as Star left, we didn't address the secondary, he had to pick up some of TD's duties, and we didn't have any athleticism at DE.....yea he started to slip.

End of the day, Luke, like every other player in the NFL, cannot carry an entire side of the ball.

Does anyone think Luke may take a few years off to get right, and then come out of retirement to play again? I mean I doubt it but the thought just occurred to me. 

I don’t wanna count on it, but that would be great. Hell, really no reason Cam couldn’t do the same thing if his foot or shoulder doesn’t behave this year and our line still sucks.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
