NFL Films: Kuechly one step ahead

[Mr. Scot]

Fun to watch for the memories 

Also sad because it ended too soon

Being a fan from 2003 onward, he was my favorite player this franchise has ever had. 

We went through 2 decades of elite MLB play and yet Luke set a new standard. 

He was never flashy. Never the big hit guy. Just a text book tackler with the highest football IQ I have ever watched.

What always made me laugh was how absolutely baffled offensive opponents were.

Anytime they were asked about him, they always mentioned wondering how the hell he knew what was coming

The moments when he'd go apesh-t right before the snap because he saw something...

When I went to games I would focus on Keuchly before the snap...watching him get players lines up.  It was amazing how often he moved a player to exactly where the ball went.

When you combine a mind that has rare speed, instincts and a thirst for knowledge, with a great athlete, you get a truly special player, and one that elevates an entire team.

what's cool is that there is a QB in the draft that just might be the QB equivalent of Kuechly.

Young?

Young?

from what i've heard, his work ethic and dedication to the tape is just as elevated as Kuechly was. Supposedly he knows where not only his players, but defender players are supposed to be at any point during a play. He's supposedly that deep into preparation. In there before the coaches watching tape post game and pregame, coming up with plays to help take advantage of things he sees.

I'm really high on both guys and think they will both be elite, but Young's mind for the game impresses me probably the most.

When it comes to quarterbacking skills, Young would be an absolute dream pick for me.

But you have to get past that one big question...

My point exactly about Young, but it's strange Luke prefers AR. He probably has CJ behind Levis too lol

finally something we can agree on...no question asked I'll take him in a heartbeat.

or you can choose to see that big question is no bigger for any other player. you can't accurately predict injury for anyone. so why bother?
