Kawann Short is a fat lazy bum

This is the second post I have made now pointing out a critical defensive play where Short looks like he is just completely half-assing it and could give two shits what is going on. We are terrible on third and long for numerous reasons but Short may be one of the biggest factors. It's like if it is third and long he just doesn't give a fug. My last example was in the Steelers game where the only two pass rushers were Luke and him and he literally tried to push two blockers for a few seconds and then just gave up and stood there while Luke was trying to bull rush 3 linemen. We all remember how that turned out.

Now lets take a look at this shining example of fuging piss poor effort.

http://www.nfl.com/videos/cleveland-browns/0ap3000000997265/Can-t-Miss-Play-Baker-rips-51-yard-TD-to-Landry

3rd and 17 and only half way through the second quarter. Short pushes his blocker and the blocker stumbles a bit leaving short with a wide open shot to obliterate Mayfield and KK just stops for a second like he can' believe he isn't being blocked. Rather than sprinting and trying to get a hit on the QB, he barley starts to jog and watches Baker fling a 51 yard TD bomb.

Just fuging cut this fat pos already I don't care what the dead cap hit is.

I don't know why he's playing this way

Is it doing it on purpose? Is he hurt? He's just about to turn 30, did father time kick already? For the money he's making, we need answers.

For the next 3 years post-June cut says dead money 4 mil, cap savings 13-14 mil

While that may seem palpable on the surface, you can't simply cut everyone and eat all that dead money.  Sure, you can ditch one or maybe two really awful contracts, but is KK really that cut?  I'd argue that Matt Kalil is probably a better target for a June 1 cut.

Honestly, we probably won't know until after the draft.  A lot will depend on FA and draft as to who we cut and who we keep.  We can look at the numbers all we like, but until we know what the actual options are, it doesn't mean all that much.

He's the best D lineman we have, and he's surrounded by aged and/or mediocre talent. Just like Luke looks like crap when the D line can't get him clean, KK looks bad when he's required to do too much. He's a great DT, but he's not really elite. He could look elite with another great DT next to him, but he's not really a game changer by himself. We should absolutely keep him, and surround him with youth and talent. I think it's true that Rivera has lost the players. Some of the better players on our team seem to be phoning it in. I can't imagine how frustrating it is to consistently hold offenses to a 3rd and long only to have Captain Munchkinland get beat over the top, or Bradberry whiff on a straightforward tackle.

Addison is a lot better.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      I can always count on yout to put things so delicately lol. I'm still not sold on the fact that Tepper will make them keep him if they don't see him as a long term answer.

      holy poo... this thread inspired me to keep trying to guess passwords to various alts I've created over the years and I finally got in! I pretty much accepted my fate as a lurker for the last several months because I could not remember my password. I didn't realize that new users couldn't join either, that explains things. I have been around for years under several different monikers, through the good and bad. I too always find myself coming back here even with all of the new social media options for Panther fan engagement. It's simply nostalgic.   I do get extremely annoyed with the same 5-10 posters shitting on Bryce and complaining about everything. It's unfortunate that half of them are mods and that nobody new can join because now I pretty much just come on here and see Bryce / Panther slander. There is barely any positivity to be had. We all watch this team and hang on this forum for entertainment purposes only. We have no control or say in anything. I used to be such a crazy ass fan that would argue with strangers about Cam newton on the internet and at games. Now, as a father of 3, a business owner and someone with way gnarlier life problems - I like to watch football and talk about football as an escape. Not to bitch more. I really like the direction of the team and will root anyone in a Panthers jersey. I live down the street from the Rams practice facility, Matthew Stafford is currently coaching his daughters flag football team in the same program I coach my sons. I have two highly ranked Rams staff members sons on my team. The way we beat them and had them on the ropes in the playoffs has me feeling amazing, and you would think we have the next great thing in Bryce with the way they all speak of him. I'm gonna ride that high and be a delusional fan, I hope that huddle can stick around or get fixed and perhaps I will get back to posting more now that I can log in again. I will do my best to not get banned. Keep Pounding!

      Well, if they know Tepper wants to keep Bryce there is an an implied safety net there in case he fails. A possibility that he will be empathetic and •maybe• not fire them.  If they go against that and bring in someone else and that fails they are in a much worse spot.  IMO.  And another factor may be that after all those years of instability and musical chairs pre Bryce there will likely be a feeling of security in knowing what they have.   Kind of like settling just to keep from going through the process all over again.     IOW I think he really needs to fug up bad to lose his job and change our course.
