Guess who finished with a top 10 defense?

I'd like to know how our defense looked if you prorated for just the last half of the schedule. That was when they really clicked.

I'm very happy with Meeks' first year, and can't wait to see what we can do next year.

I too am very please with how our defense played toward the end of the year! Just think about next year when all of our starters return, and the upgrades in free agency and draft.... I believe we would have had the best defense regardless of the injuries if the offense could have stayed on the field to get the defense more rest on the sidelines... instead of going alot of three and outs.

Guess what, we also finished with one of the best rushing attacks in NFL history.

So for a guy to have the #4 defense in 2009, and have one of the best rushing attacks in NFL history.. the same guy who like to "run the ball and play defense"

Why the hell are we 8-8?

Think about it. There is something seriously wrong with all of this. I'm not asking for an answer, because we all know it. Just think about it.

It's even sadder when you think about some of our losses this year. And to think -- prior to the season's start we thought the last half of our schedule was going to be brutal.

Delhomo. If we had a game manager at QB this year, we would have made the playoffs. We didn't need our QB to win the games for us, we just needed him to not lost the games. Delhomme couldn't do that.

Yea, going back and looking at all that(one of the best rushing attacks in nfl history and top 10 defense), it really is sad. We should be in the playoffs. Instead of Fox going around the media sounding like he's hurt and upset about the situation the FO has put him in with his contract, he should be lucky he has a damn job.

    • 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.
