Being Positively Blah

I'm going to pose a simple question: Pending a win tonight...can we make it through this entire season with Fox, Hurney, & Delhomme and still feel good about our team at the end?

I really think so.

I'm not currently a supporter of any of the three fellows I mentioned, but I am looking at our current situtation as this:

If our running game picks up soon, we are fully capable of going to the playoffs. Simple. And this is regardless of how Jake performs and as long as our defense can be mediocre. Look at the second half of last year. We had basically the same team and a similar situation. Jake had horrible horrible games against the likes of the Raiders and Buccaneers and our defense gave up a ridiculous amount of points yet we still managed to finish 12-4. I believe if Delhomme can drag on as last years self to the end of this year, we can still finish well...and we can still get rid of him (Along with Fox & Co.). He may have around 20 interceptions, 15-20 TDs and we may not in fact fall off the face of the earth. Our team will still have two awesome running backs, great linebackers, solid starting o-linemen, and good TEs at the end of this season. We have some to dispose of but we don't have to blow up our team to bits and start from square one even if we do get a new coach and QB. Teams like the Jets, Bears, and 49ers are showing me that we have the potential to get it going quicker than it seems.

I'm just trying to get a positive mindset thats not a homer and at the same time not a negative prick. When thinking this way: My expectations are still very low, but I still see playoff possibility. Basically, just stop freaking out people. :seeya:

So, let's start by beating the living crap out of the Cowgirls in an bit. Cheers.

      Rams are willing to deal one of the 1st rounders for all-pro talent in secondary

      They can get film of all the games? Every team? Wow! Who knew… Our games with them are big examples of why they are in  the CB market so hard.   It is the study they do getting ready for the games.  Preparing to play against is a little different than just analyzing film in scout mode. Deeper dive. Then you are analyzing post game too.  This goes to why players often change teams but stay in the division. The opponents know each other on a higher level.  Plus if you lost to us, you used to get fired. Now you have to trade your first round pick. Moving up on the world.

      I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).

      It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
