In my honest opinion Jaycee isn't a shutdown corner and the Panthers actually HIDE him when it comes guarding the best players on the other team CONSISTENTLY he never does it! It's like the team saw all the PFF praise he was getting and made sure to show the NFL hey look we got something right!! Guy just doesn't do it for me 

I bet you successfully flip you legs over your own head just to satisfy yourself.

That's cap teams put their best corner on the best player on the field 

By 'cap' I assume you mean 'crap' and no, no it's not. You're exposing a lack of knowledge here.

For example, the Patriots:

Quote

A common thought among NFL fans and media is that teams should always match up their best cornerback against the opposition’s best receiver. But the Patriots have devised a better strategy. They use versatile safety Devin McCourty to help bracket the opponent’s top receiver. By committing two defenders to one receiver, the corner has a far easier job in coverage, and thus the Patriots use their second-best corner on this double coverage assignment.

That allows them to use their top corner on the opposition’s second best receiver, which in theory gives them a good chance to lock down not just one, but two of the opponent’s top receivers. Here’s an example against the Texans from Week 3 last season.


The Texans’ best receiver is DeAndre Hopkins. He splits outside to the left of the formation. Instead of using their top corner, Malcolm Butler, the Patriots send their second corner Logan Ryan to shadow Hopkins. McCourty is typically a free safety in base packages, but in nickel sub-packages, he rotates down to help bracket receivers while Duron Harmon takes his place in the deep middle of the field. Butler is left to cover whomever the Patriots deem to be the Texans’ next biggest threat.

Or from Matt Bowen, former NFL safety:

Quote

So how would I game plan a receiver like Brown, Beckham, Julio Jones, DeAndre Hopkins or A.J. Green? Put the No. 1 cornerback on the opposition's No. 2 wide receiver and use the scheme to take away the top wide receiver. No different than what the New England Patriots used to do with Darrelle Revis.

Hotter Take:

Jayce Horn hasn’t even played a full season yet.  He isnt suppose to be Revis Island yet.  Revis wasn’t.

Reality is Horn has been great when on the field.  

All that said, we should have drafted Fields.  QB play is significantly more impactful than a DB.  Especially for a team without one. 

 

And yet, we're better than Shitcago. Wat do?

    • I think the same thing, they don’t have any better options especially since Christiansen is out for the year 
    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
