We are just as bad (if not worse) as the 2-14 Panthers.

So sitting here thinking, it hit me. It is laughable than many of us (myself included) thought we had a true shot at the playoffs. But really, why? When you really think about it, outside of Cam Newton, this team is the same exact team from 2010. I mean, can anyone honestly say we have made any improvements on one single position other than QB since 2010? Aside from Cam Newton our 2011 draft was a joke. You might say Kuechly, sure this guy has pro bowl potential all over him but he pretty much just replaced the already pro bowler MLB Jon Beason so thats a wash.

O line? We lost a great RT in Otah, a great guard in Wharton and replaced him with a division II rookie (a promising one yes). WR? Don't get me started at WR. This team has avoided upgrading the WR position like its herpes. We have a 33 year old WR, a great one yes but nonetheless a 33 year old, 5'9 WR when in today's NFL its the bigger sized WRs that are dominating.

So what have we done since 2010? Aside from Cam this is the same exact team from 2010. I mean it blows my fuging mind. I mean, how on earth can a NFL team go 2-14, keep the same GM and that GM goes and pay ungodly amounts of money to the same exact players on that same 2-14 team. Lol, I mean this is really the stuff a bad sports comedy movie is made of. It just BLOWS. MY. MIND.

Last but not least, you might be thinking. "Well, 2011 was such a improved season, I mean we went from 2 wins to 6 wins in just one year." Yea, about those 6 wins last year, lets talk about that shall we.. So who exactly did we beat last year.... Jacksonville Jaguars, the one team I am 100% confident we are better than, just garbage. Tampa Bay Bucs, a Bucs team that quit on their HC and played every game with the effort of a pre season game. Indianianoplis Colts, 2-14 Colts team that was fully in Suck For Luck mode. Last but not least, the Houston Texans. Ok, ill give you the Texans win but even thats being generous considering they just came off clinching the division a week before and probably werent in full force. Oh wait, I almost forgot. Washington Redskins, a team with John Beck at QB.. Need I say more?

SO. Lets recap. Since 2010 we have.. A. Upgraded at QB. B. Kept the same GM who in turned signed the same players from said 2-14 team and C. Have 6 wins in 2011 against teams who finished the 2011 season with a total record of 29-66. I hate to pour even more salt on the wound, but sonce 2010 we have ONLY beat teams with a combined win/loss record of 40-87. OUCH!! That salt stings.

Let's see...

Bell, new and an improvement.

Olsen, new and...

Amini, new and...

Alexander...

Norman...

Kuechly...

The Edwards twins...

Nortman...

Medlock...

All these guys are from 2011 to present. So, you might say, we have added some talent in the last two years.

So, we hae tried to address the talent level. Just not happening as quickly as some folks are wanting.

When the offense figures things out. We are going to be fine. I would say to have some patience, but I have a feeling that is a waste of time.

My god, you're so damn dumb, either you're doing this for attention or you actually are dumb/Didn't watch the 2010 season. You do realize we were literally the worst offense in 15 years, right?

But at the end of the day we ARE our record. Even if we have the 1st ranked offense and go 2-14, we are just as bad. 1-4 right now, which lets be real, we are a unsuspended Sean Payton away from 0-5. Quite possibly staring down 1-6 with the Cowboys and Bears next.

Oh please, we gave New Orleans a run for their money last year WITH Sean Payton they only won by three points, mind you. This season is not even over yet, so stop exaggerating like a little bitchm

Please just stop posting if you are always going to be this pessimistic as if you are on a mission to bring everyone down. You still have the John Fox mentality and always thinking negatively. The panthers are trying to develop a winner's mentality, always bitching about how bad we are is not the mindset of a winner Always believe that you are better than the next guy and if you don't, then you have lost already. So please grow a pair and stop acting like someone pisses in your cereal every morning or gtfo of here.

      I could be waaaaaaay off about Kon. I do fault myself into, to borrow a NFL phrase heavily "RAS" nerd on players, too much. There are PLENTY of athletic freak shows that are playing overseas(or Amazon delivery) cause they never figured out NBA ball. I can easily miss seeing the talent. Plus did he only have 2 dunks on the season??(is that for real??) I didn't watch over a few hours of duke, but not one point did I think "That Kon guy is a top 4 pick in the upcoming draft". IMO I still foresee Ball bringing the ball up, doing his weak isolation game and never even looking for Kon. That's his best trait according to everyone, shooting right? I do not see ball, bridges, miller or even williams making the extra pass to Kon for him to shoot a 3.  Then defense-wise, Im not ready to type the amount of questions I foresee in his ability for guarding NBA SGs or bench SFs for that matter. Not that NBA players care to defend, but still..... I just feel he's a bad fit for the current hornets, trades are taking place tho... Liam to me is a decent comp for Kon and he fell some, but was a 29 overall pick. Still around 13-21 was the good solid range for Liam and I thought the same for Kon. This is just a classic case of I need to see it. It add to this, Kon is like garlic. Ball is like sugar and Miller is like flour. Mix it together and chef Lee is not going to get me to eat that dish..... Honestly I don't know why Im this vocal about Kon. In past years I would be patience and not post and see what the kid has. The other side, insert classic white boy terms here- _____, ______, _______< etc >. Hornets do desperately need them. His crafty back door cuts, his willingness to stay a extra 2 hours to refine lees plays, keep playing with bruised limbs. I heard from many reports he's mentally tough and hornets by all gods need that. God they are such pussys.  I hope Im wrong and if so, I will give Kon his just props.
