Saints vs Panthers: Cockasauras Hathroar

The Browns Board
28 11 727
  • I've seen many injuries on live TV I had to turn away from... Theismann's leg leading the list... but I can never recall being saddened by one as much as I was Kuechly's last nite.

    Such a joy to watch him play... Such absolute devastation in his face as he was carted off...

    Given his concussion history I can't help but feel I've seen the last of him... at least for 5 years until he gets his gold jacket.

    'excuse me Tour. If this is the end of the line for Luke, no way Jose.

    If Clay Matthews isn't good enough,his certainly isn't.

    Well said! I never thought I'd see a more instinctive and better prepared LBer than Ray Lewis until Keuchly came along. I think Collinsworth mentioned Brees told him that in previous meetings - Keuchly was correctly calling out to his defense (pre-snap) something like 85% of the plays they were about to run.

    SF had a former Wisconsin LB whose name escapes me that had to retire early because of concussion volumes. He was another instinctive young LBer that came out the year we selected Christian Kirksey ahead of him.

    Borland? The SF MLB I thought of was Patrick Willis... who also retired "early".

    It's a short list of great, truly great MLBs/ILBs in my lifetime. And the timeline grew less populated as time passed. Ray Ray... Willis... Kuechly are it for the past two decades. All three are guaranteed first balloters... Book it!

    To those that think Kuechly doesn't have the body of work to make it, I have two words to say... Gayle Sayers.

    Can a career be too short to have a shot? Yes, but once it's long enough to confirm greatness, it's long enough for the HOF.

    I have been an advocate for Terrel Davis for HOF.

    Was best player in the league at his peak and best player on back-to-back SB Champs.

    Career cut short, but greatness is greatness. And if you are the very best at your job for even a two or three year stretch, you deserve serious consideration.

    And clearly, Kirksey was the right pick.....in fact.....he looks to be our best 3rd round pick in the last 40 years....(I checked)....

    Yes - Borland. Thank you! Borland retired from concussions while Willis had a really bad foot if memory serves me right. Both guys had really gifted 1st step instincts that defensive coaches dream about...

    Then put Josh Gordon in the HOF. That might be a stretch, but I damn disagree. It's greatness over a relatively long period. Butkus- who was the GOAT at his position played nine seasons. Sorry, Sayers got in on a sympathy vote. He had some nice years. http://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/S/SayeGa00.htm

    You had better be near the leader in at least SOME stats to get consideration. Just MHO. Ha selective stats- Josh Cribbs ought to get some consideration.

    The way it's played now Tour- Luke needs another three years.

  • So of all the twist and turns of this thread no one laughed at Cockasauras Hathroar?

  • Keuchly get's in only cuz he's the new era of gerry cooney def players.

    Clay Matthews Jr. get in? JJ Watt if finished now? HOF used to mean something now it's a couple of years of good numbers?

  • Good numbers???

    Sometimes it's "eyetest" confirmed by numbers... that was Sayers' ticket. That'll be Luke's as well. And yes, JJ, will make it, too, with even should he never come back... which he will. I'm hard pressed to think of a dominant DE that is not in the hall and few have dominated like JJ.

    Gordon? Laughable counterpoint... 1 great year with limited time on the field ever since. Regardless of the reason(s) for his being M.I.A., when has he confirmed that one year?

    Cribbs? As a return man, he might actually get consideration, but ultimately fall short. Specialists rarely get their ticket punched. And he has contemporaries that would likely crowd him out, e.g., Devin Hester.

  • I googled "Cockasauras Hathroar" and this thread is the only thing that came up on the entire internet.

    It's not easy to invent something completely new.

    I hope our Cockasauras Hathroars all over Ben today.

    It's something stupid I do Zombo. Like if my wife and I are at the store...I'll hold a Polska Kobasa sausage and say..."Cockasauras ....hath...roared!" it's really stupid.
