Reasons to feel great about next season

I never start threads, but I think this is important--You already know this stuff, but it may help to frame the situation at this time.

 

We just went toe-to-toe with the World Champions in their house.  They beat us by attacking our rookies and forcing a few turnovers.  Next year, they will not be rookies.  Next year, we will have a LT and another WR threat.  Next year, we beat them. Next year, we beat a lot of people.

 

About a third of the players who contributed was composed of rookie players (Brown, Norwell, Glanton, Ealy, Boston, Benwikere, Turner).  Of those somel were undrafted (Brown, Norwell, Glanton).  We had some overachievers, bargain-basement free agents like Remmers, Love, Cole, and Horton.   These players were assembled out of necessity due to some terrible contracts, dead money, and a cap deficit over $16m just 2 years ago. 

 

Then there were players on the roster whose talents were discovered.  Colin Jones, in my opinion, could be a pretty strong SS.  I think they should look at him there anyway.  Josh Norman stepped up and has become a strong CB.  All gained experience this year. 

 

We get everyone we want to return back next year.  In fact, most of our contracts are set through 2016, with the exception of Cam.

 

So what are our needs?  LT, WR for sure.  DT, RB, CB, S depth. 

 

Expect us to become elite in 2015.   These players are experienced now.  They are no longer rookies, bargain-basement free agent nomads, or bench warmers.   

 

The future is bright.

The future is bright as long as we get rid of Shula, Rogers, and Dorsey.

 

Why Dorsey? I think Cam was 10x better in the pocket tonight than last week. Dorsey had a lot to do with getting Cam be a lot better...

 

The problem is it came against the number one defense in the NFL.

I said the same thing. This game was the best experience you can hope for young players to have. On the road, in the playoffs, against the defending world champions in the toughest place to play in the NFL. They likely won't face anything that tough again - unless we go back to Seattle in the playoffs.

I would keep the qb coach.    This week,  Cam was somewhat comfortable in the chaos..  He was avoiding 1 to 2 defenders flying at him,  stepping up into the pocket.    Going through his reads.             

 

 

Just replace Shula and I would be happy.

Ramsdell > Dorsey

 

Idk what the fug is his role in this organization but he should be the QB coach. Next get an OC that he can be matched up

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
