I do think that with a slightly more shored up D with more experience, a new OL (this being key), and better receiving options out of the backfield behind CMC, this is a playoff team.  If CMC stays healthy and if we don't have severe injuries to multiple critical d starters this still could Have been a playoff team this year... But I doubt those things will be the case, especially with Horn already out for the season.

Edit: the running back outlet seems critical for Brady, and Chubba has dropped 26% of the throws he's been targeted with. Some of that is on Darnold but not all.

I think we have to find a better QB than Darnold to make the playoffs. It would take a very stellar supporting cast to lift him to that level.

that's fair. thinking he can get us into the playoffs isn't thinking he is good enough to win consistently there... and with the current state of the offense there's zero chance of that.  But I'm an optimist haha.  Still,  I think we are more likely with a different vet to reach the post season next year.

CMC being healthy really changes the offense tho.  Hell, any competent pass catching back does... and that has been a problem the last few weeks.  Davis is no CMC but he was sooooo much better than Chubba in that role.  I still have hope for our rookie, dont get me wrong, but Davis had 2 drops in 15 games, 2.9% rate... Hubbard is over 25% drop rate with 5 or 6 already 😞  I personally think that is a bigger issue than the fact Robby is coating his gloves in olive oil between possessions.

I agree. We relied heavily on RB passes last year with or without CMC. It's kind of mind blowing that we drafted a RB that doesn't have good receiving ability or that we don't have another one on the roster that does. 

Robby will eventually get the yips figured out but I don't think we are going to see a dramatic improvement during the season for our rookie RB.

Oh know he was not using team professionals because of what he was planning to do. This thought process is from the women being flown out for his massage. I’m sure the rich and famous fly them out and other professionals for all sorts of goods and services. If he was expecting something different there are different professions that handle that. 
 

So you think this man hires professionals massage therapists and does “consensual” sexual acts with them? Then texts then the next day apologizing and all 22 of them are just crying sexual assault for money. You think I am the naive one… If they normally do this type of business wouldn’t this be a career ending move by all of them? 

So your opinion is that these women are all so stupid that they didn’t realize that Watson has all of the resources he could possibly need at his disposal to take care of any massage therapy needs, and instead needed to fly in unlicensed women from Instagram? 

He didn’t text all of them and apologize the next day. There were maybe a handful, of course, there’s no context as to WHAT he’s apologizing about or WHY. Then there’s the pesky detail that several of them came back for more. 

Like I said, these Instagram hoes don’t need people on the internet white knighting for them. Either they are amongst the absolute dumbest adults on the planet, or they knew what was up.

Or maybe, just maybe the rich football player has a power complex or is a pervert? Could that be possible? White knighting or just being a realist considering the circumstances. It’s 22 women with similar stories and texts from him apologizing. You are just in denial because you are a fan of his or Clemson or want him on our team. Why are teams not in a bidding war for him right now? He is one of the most talented QBs in the league. It’s because the facts/data are not in his favor. The Panthers have just stated they aren’t pursuing him so move on.

Calling sexual assault victims 'Instagram hoes'? Can we move this thread to the TB just like every other Watson thread finally? @LinvilleGorge@rayzor

    • Kon is a damn stud but it’s not any individual player’s team. All of the “big 3” are incredibly and equally important IMO. And LaMelo makes Kon way better (look at his shooting splits with LaMelo on the floor vs without. Also Moose and even Miles are important cogs. Honestly think we’re 1 piece away from being legit top contenders if the young guys continue to develop the next year or two. I trust this FO to be patient to find that piece within the next 2-3 years and not force anything. Plenty of time and even without adding anyone we have the pieces in place overall already to compete with any team. 
    • We lost 2 very close and winnable games against top teams in the league while missing 3 critical players despite 2 of our top 3 players shooting unusually terribly. Still split the 4 games that Moose and Miles were suspended, winning the most important one vs the Hawks. This ain’t yo mama’s Hornets man. Hopefully Coby can go soon but even if not Moose and Miles are huge additions for our starting lineup and bench rotations. Schedule is pretty tough after these next 4 but I think we’ll take care of business the next 4 to get to .500 then finish slightly above .500 after that to get a 7 or 8 seed. Keep it rolling boys. Also Kon is having an insanely historic rookie season as a shooter. Like truly can’t believe my eyes watching this kid level of historic. Man what a fuging home run of a draft pick and exactly what this team needed to take that next step forward. He’s gonna shatter the rookie 3 point and franchise 3 point records. Has a real chance to be the 2nd best 3 point shooter ever or dare I say even get to Curry’s level (as a pure shooter, Curry obviously has way more to his game that has made him a GOAT).
    • I hear you but yeah like you say, above average. His numbers were good. You’d think it would be a no brainer. Anyhow… I guess the new staff is also fine with him walking?    I hope if we sign him there isn’t some secret issue of his that led to him not being valued.
