Who's better...Demario Davis or Luke Kuechly?
 
Really glad to see Davis work out for us, especially after our string of back luck in trying to address this position.

But what if Luke Kuechly were available say next year or the year after the next.... should we?

When considering the mental and physical aspects of the game, I believe Kuechly is the best at his position. That said, he has had some very serious concussions in recent years and I don't know how many season he has left to play.

Totally agree. Kuechly is a fantastic LB but repeated concussion is nothing to play around with.

Kuechly may be the best LB in the NFL.
Davis is very good. Luke is elite.

Demario is doing great but Kuechly is very special when healthy. He was a constant nuisance Monday night.

And he knew where a lot of the plays were going. Smart, tough & has speed. Great against the pass & run.

I love Demario but Kuechly is on another level. Yes, he's special.

Keuchly is most likely the best in the game at this point.

One thing that did make me laugh though, the announcers were calling saying he was micd up, Luke said "I know exactly what these guys are doing" then proceeded to get absolutely molested as Kamara bounced a run to the outside.

Kuechly is a strong leader... Alpha.. If you are missing leadership then you should peruse... If you have present leadership you risk dividing the locker room. A divided locker room equals a defense that is less than the sum of its parts.

I’d have Kuechly in a heartbeat.

Luke Kuechly deserves to be mentioned amongst names like Ray Lewis, Brian Urlacher, Mike Singletary, and Dick Butkus. He might be 3rd all time at his position. Kuechly is an AMAZING football player. Demario Davis isn’t really playing MLB anyway. Both of them on the field at the same time is trouble for the NFL.

Kuechly and Wagner I believe are the two best in the game right now, debatable on who is #1, Both are too great to be placed below the other...Having said that, i’m Real happy with our guys and their development. It’s only gonna get better!! Love where we’re headed.

Kuechly is other worldly

He seems to be in on every play or at least converging on it
His side to side pursuit is incredible
Without him panthers. Is mediocre

He does play dirty though
Twisting Kamara's ankle while on top of him

Agreed. With his range and speed I think he compares best to Urlacher.

Kuechly is certainly one of the best all-time. I do think his stats are a bit inflated though- he makes a lot of tackles 8-10 yards down the field.
I get that someone should be making the play, but tackling Kamara/Ingram after a few big catches and runs isn't that impressive.
