Kawann Short is a fat lazy bum

[Eazy-E]

This is the second post I have made now pointing out a critical defensive play where Short looks like he is just completely half-assing it and could give two shits what is going on. We are terrible on third and long for numerous reasons but Short may be one of the biggest factors. It's like if it is third and long he just doesn't give a fug. My last example was in the Steelers game where the only two pass rushers were Luke and him and he literally tried to push two blockers for a few seconds and then just gave up and stood there while Luke was trying to bull rush 3 linemen. We all remember how that turned out.

Now lets take a look at this shining example of fuging piss poor effort.

3rd and 17 and only half way through the second quarter. Short pushes his blocker and the blocker stumbles a bit leaving short with a wide open shot to obliterate Mayfield and KK just stops for a second like he can' believe he isn't being blocked. Rather than sprinting and trying to get a hit on the QB, he barley starts to jog and watches Baker fling a 51 yard TD bomb.

Just fuging cut this fat pos already I don't care what the dead cap hit is.

The defense as a whole is trash and will need a significant overhaul both in coaching staff and personnel.

Yeah I say we get what we can in a trade and go from there.

Say it with me. Change is coming.

I don't know why he's playing this way

Is it doing it on purpose? Is he hurt? He's just about to turn 30, did father time kick already? For the money he's making, we need answers.

For the next 3 years post-June cut says dead money 4 mil, cap savings 13-14 mil

While that may seem palpable on the surface, you can't simply cut everyone and eat all that dead money.  Sure, you can ditch one or maybe two really awful contracts, but is KK really that cut?  I'd argue that Matt Kalil is probably a better target for a June 1 cut.

Honestly, we probably won't know until after the draft.  A lot will depend on FA and draft as to who we cut and who we keep.  We can look at the numbers all we like, but until we know what the actual options are, it doesn't mean all that much.

he weighs the same he did when he was good, why the body shaming

[Paa Langfart]

I think one of the knocks on him coming out of college was that he had no stamina -  as far as I know stamina does not increase with age.  There is your answer.

Poe is far worse. Even Short made some tackles for loss. Poe literally sticks his arm out as player runs by

HOW BOUT DEM HOG MOLLIES

[PanthersBigD]

He's the best D lineman we have, and he's surrounded by aged and/or mediocre talent. Just like Luke looks like crap when the D line can't get him clean, KK looks bad when he's required to do too much. He's a great DT, but he's not really elite. He could look elite with another great DT next to him, but he's not really a game changer by himself. We should absolutely keep him, and surround him with youth and talent. I think it's true that Rivera has lost the players. Some of the better players on our team seem to be phoning it in. I can't imagine how frustrating it is to consistently hold offenses to a 3rd and long only to have Captain Munchkinland get beat over the top, or Bradberry whiff on a straightforward tackle.

Not sure but happened multiple times he got to QB and stopped like he was surprised to be there and didn’t know what to do.

Addison is a lot better.
