Was Thanksgiving. Think it was Romo's last start.

Yep thanksgiving. Luke and Coleman both got themselves an INT against Romo and Thomas Davis caused Romo to take his last snap.

I still remember that Dallas was favored in that game when that team was undefeated 11-0 to that point. Was a beyond satisfying win.

He was the best linebacker I ever saw. An absolute freak of nature with a high motor that played the game smarter than everybody else. I was fortunate enough to be close enough to hear him on several occasions during games, and it's true what they say. He knew what was coming and called it out correctly often. When he spoke, everyone listened.

Might go to Canton for this one. He or Steve Smith. 

Same. Luke would be the first lifetime Panther to get in, and probably will be the only one for a while.

This shouldn't even be a discussion. Luke was all but universally praised by his peers and pundits as an absolute cerebral menace that could both blow up run plays and pick off passes. He set the bar for linebackers high enough that I dare say no one since then has been able to match.

The only reason he wouldn't get in as a 1st ballot is he didn't play long enough. He'll get in. Just maybe not as a 1st ballot. If they would have won the Superbowl in 2015, then it would be a lock. 

Patrick Willis just got in 1st ballot with the same length of a career.

And as good as Willis was, Luke was better in every way and has a DPOY and 1 more all pro team than him. He is one of the most obvious first ballot guys there is. If he doesn’t get in first ballot it would be a travesty

      If he tries to do that I have a feeling the league is gonna tell him to butt out.

      Bryce Young is HIM.

      By ImfromClayton · Posted

      I think you are at a major advantage if you have the ability to run the football as a quarterback. It can mask a lot of issues. Much like RG3, or Anthony Richardson, immediate impact is a lot easier with a running QB. Anthony Richardson already appears to be a bust, despite him turning some heads early last year. Vince Young was a ROY. I do think Jayden is a lot better than a lot of those guys, but I think he's got a fair amount of development to do as well.  Stroud looks a lot better than Bryce, I won't dispute that, but he's taken a very big step back this year off of last year. Houston has a myriad of issues on the offensive side of the ball.  This is just a trend we seem to be seeing everywhere. Very few QB's are pro ready anymore, and just when we are ready to give up on a guy, he does the thing where he becomes competent, (not necessarily good). Sam Bradford, Sam Darnold, Baker Mayfield, Geno Smith, Jameis Winston, Marcus Mariota, and so on and so forth. The list of evidence is enormous. But to your point, the highest miss rate of any position in football is quarterback. The vast majority of them do not pan out. More than likely, that is the case here.
