Horn didn't look bad, but wasn't a world beater by any stretch of the imagination. The three games he played were against two rookies making their first starts and a guy that was considered a reclamation project at best. All three were under heavy pressure and didn't have a lot of time to go through their progressions to look his way much. When thrown his way, he's had one PD(tied for 128th amongst active players) and been in on five tackles. Oh yeah, he's had a flag tossed against him and jumped in the way of a teammate to get the gimme INT. Not bad, shows promise, but still just a talented rookie starting his career.

If you want to say he is the best corner the Panthers have, then that is more an indictment that the others suck at their jobs than him being a lockdown corner. Which, is why he was drafted.

Never claimed anyone was a success yet. Early returns on Slater show he is promising just like Horn. Early returns on Christenson in the little game time he got weren't as good. Hopefully, he plays better if he gets to play this week.

Goodbye.

The same person who has been pounding the table about how our olinemen aren't as bad as they seem thinks Slater's quality play so far is a mirage. You cannot reason with that level of delusion.

You are the one posting things that don't exist, that only exist in your mind.  That is a delusion.

When the line plays poorly, I say that.  

The reality is that you don't admit when the line plays well because it threatens your worldview.

Playing well and doing just enough to not lose us games against inferior competition are two different things. In the weeks leading up to our loss we had issues sustaining drives because of our offensive line. Remember that second half against the Jets? The best week we had was against the Saints and that was largely due to an epic performance by our defense. We almost let the Texans come back on us because we again struggled to sustain drives and they got beat 40 to nothing by the Bills last weekend. We still haven't seen a quality game from our offensive line yet. I'm still hoping it happens.

      Carolina Panthers - Potential cap casualties

      By strato · Posted

      Olsen was with Chicago 3 or 4 years and took a while to bloom. I remember wishing we could get him at 25 n 2007 but we took Beason. Couldn’t complain about that. I would really love to get a Jon Beason level ILB this draft.  We have 4-5 other positions that could really use some 1st round talent.  I feel like there will be someone at 19 at one of those positions with talent comparable to Sadiq.  I am not gonna argue individuals really, I have done no research. Just philosophy. Address the holes unless it just isn’t close.

      Raiders interviewing Panthers DC Ejiro Evero for a second time next week

      By WarPanthers89 · Posted

      The Raiders have completed a second interview with Panthers defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. The team has complied with the Rooney Rule after interviewing Evero and former Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel, who appears headed to the Chargers as offensive coordinator. That allows the Raiders to hire a new coach at any time. Evero has served as the Panthers’ defensive coordinator since 2023, first taking the job under former head coach Frank Reich. While Carolina finished at the bottom of the league defensively in 2024, Evero helped turn the unit around to finish No. 16 in yards and No. 15 in points allowed in 2025. Evero has coordinated two top-10 defenses — first with what the Broncos in 2022 (No. 7 in yards allowed) and then with the Panthers in 2023 (No. 4 in yards allowed). He has also worked for the 49ers, Packers and Rams. The Raiders also have Bills offensive coordinator Joe Brady, Broncos defensive coordinator Vance Joseph, 49ers offensive coordinator Klay Kubiak, Seahawks offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak, Rams offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur, Chargers defensive coordinator Jesse Minter, Chiefs offensive coordinator Matt Nagy, Rams passing game coordinator Nate Scheelhaase, Rams defensive coordinator Chris Shula and Broncos quarterbacks coach Davis Webb among their candidates. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/raiders-complete-second-interview-with-panthers-dc-ejiro-evero
