I Feel Sorry for Mike Shula

have you forgotten smash mouth football? You want a sexy air attack that loses in the 4th qtr. Been there done that now back to the roots.

Ah right, the roots. Never a back to back winning season, overpaid RBs and LBs, being unable to do anything once a team went up by 14. The good old days.

I can't believe how many of you guys are acting like this is the end of our team. Seriously?! "Cam Newton is going to be released..." "Gettlemen doesn't believe in Cam, he's into old man football..." Does anyone remember Gettlemen's first presser? He said we have a QB! And it's funny because all you guys wanted to shoot yourselves when we kept running the read option. Everyone was crying for a more traditional offense. Do any of you know what that entails?! A RUNNING GAME! Cam has virtually the same offense he had when he was a rookie. The only major difference is there's no Shockey. I love what we've done in the draft. All the playoff teams, the ones who made it deep, had great defenses and a power run game. They didn't have explosive playmakers on the outside. You guys are ridiculous. All of your couch GMs and Internet experts need to put down the mouse and trust in our FO. Green Bay has an offense that most of you seem to want. Look what happened to them! They got blown out in the playoffs by the running game. (I'm aware the 9ers ran the read option, but it's built off a strong running game) now the Packers went all in on the RBs this draft. Do you think they're board is melting down? To win games, you need to have a running game and defense. It appears we now have both.

Don't feel sorry for Shula. This offense is loaded with talent. We do need some pieces to ensure the future, but for the present we have a ton of offensive talent.

Loaded? As in we have a couple RBs clapping on the sidelines?

We have an aging Smith. Nothing else stands out. Smith might not soon

You guys know there wasn't a second round receiver that would be better than Lafell this season right?

Hahaha, the way some of these "experts" here talk, they make it seem like this WR class was full of future Hall of Famers.

    • They can get film of all the games? Every team? Wow! Who knew… Our games with them are big examples of why they are in  the CB market so hard.   It is the study they do getting ready for the games.  Preparing to play against is a little different than just analyzing film in scout mode. Deeper dive. Then you are analyzing post game too.  This goes to why players often change teams but stay in the division. The opponents know each other on a higher level.  Plus if you lost to us, you used to get fired. Now you have to trade your first round pick. Moving up on the world. 
    • 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.
