This NFL season is so weird and flukey that I wouldn’t be surprised if we did turn things around and make a wild card run..

I just went and looked, remember that “omg, the hardest schedule ever!!! talk” we kept talking about at the start of the season?!? Well get this, only ONE team (yes, just one)  on our entire schedule are above .500.  Which one is it?

The Broncos, I mean obviously they have the $250 million all guaranteed GOAT at QB, so it HAS to be them right?!  WRONG!  Oh, duh, Tom Brady led Bucs, right?! Guess again.  Wow, ok the Rams?! Or I know, the Bengals! Has to be the Bengals?! Or no, scratch that, the 49ers or the Ravens!! I mean one has Lamar Jackson and the other upset Aaron Rodgers last year and made the NFCCG!! Nope, nada and negative to all of the above.

Its.. The Giants!! Yes, believe it or not, that impossibly tough schedule we were originally talking about, so far it’s the lowly Giants who are at 3-1 while all other “elite teams” are just one game above us in the W/L department.

I have to say, while yes we are completely inept team that can do nothing right aside from ok defense, this season is so weird and flukey, it wouldn’t totally shock me if we magically went on some run to finish 8-9 and make the wild card or something.

Here's the bad news. Every Rhule team had played it's best football in the first third of the season and gotten progressively worse over the course of the season. We're playing our best football right now, as sad as that may be.

The larger point is relying on other teams to be so shitty that we somehow back door our way into the playoffs at 8-9ish isnt a winning formula for building a franchise

    • 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.
