Article from Denver Post on Carolina running game...

The support for the guy's argument is that they didn't allow Larry Johnson another big game the second time after on he had earlier in the season against them. Terrible argument. LJ hasn't had a big game all year since his legal troubles mid-season and I think he only had like 2 good games before that.

Oh, and they've reduced their yards per game allowed by 32.3 yards to a 23rd best 122.00 yards per game..

We'll see what Deangelo and JStew have to say about that on sunday

They lined up in their traditional 4-3 set in the Sunday rematch against the Chiefs at Invesco Field at Mile High and held Johnson to 3.3 yards a carry, with no run longer than 11.

They held Johnson to 3.3 yards a carry? We held him to less than that the whole game.

It sounds like they're trying to address their defensive line woes. I just hope we address our own secondary issues.

Interesting comments...I particularly like the one about Carolina's run game being more of a finesse run team...and how they are going to stop the run with 7 in the box...

A finesse run team? That's quite an oxymoron.

Next they'll start talking about our smashmouth passing attack. Wait, that might actually be appropriate knowing we have Steve Smith. ;)

    • 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.
