Shaq Thompson is playing as good as Thomas Davis in his prime.

Thompson was never really bad. He just wasn't as good as his paycheck.

That may no longer be true.

For this year? Sure. Dude is making almost 20 million next year and year after…not sure any 4-3 LB can play up to that asinine number only Hurney could manufacture.

A linebacker can only be so good if the players around him aren’t good.

We saw that with Luke near the end when our D started to tail off. Shaq then was left with that same defense for the bulk of his career.

Now that the talent on defense has greatly improved Shaq is able to play his position and not try to do too much/overcompensate.

I completely agree the talent has gotten better.  What I’m trying to say is Chinn was making those splash plays last year and now that he’s on the back end, Shaq has reaped the rewards of being in that spot on the defense.  He hasn’t wasted it that’s for sure.

TD didn't really become TD until around 2012 either, which was his 8th season.  He looked to be coming into form in 2009 but then the first of the infamous ACL tears happened.  In the early years he was a guy who could lay the wood but got burned in pass defense.  As we all know, he turned the corner and eventually developed into one of the best pass defending LBs in the league.  Let's hope Shaq has 16 seasons in him too.

Well, in 2022 there are 2 4-3 linebackers making more and in 2023 there is 1 3-4 inside linebacker making more already. So obviously there are other GMs who can manufacture those numbers
