"it's not good if i'm out there and can't help the team"

it's not good if you aren't out there and can't help the team. 

at least if you're out there, there's a chance you can do something good. sit on the sidelines (where you have spent most of your "career") and you're no good to us at all.

Just read that quote. He ain't suiting up again this year and honestly I don't blame him. Next year is pivotal and he knows it. He has to prove he can stay on the field. Playing in a few meaningless throwaway games this year isn't going to change his future value in the least... unless he came back and got hurt again.

yeah, i think he's checked out. just like the rest of the team.

i miss smitty. i miss cam. i miss TD. i miss luke. i miss every player we had who had that fight in them.

we got the HC equivalent of David Carr getting sucked down into that abyss of Eeyore.

the rest of the team is just sitting back and collecting checks.

A hallmark of the Tepper era has been the lack of a team. We've had collections of players who soon realize this team is hopeless so they quickly just start looking out for themselves and their career. Just get through this, try to put some good individual play on film and try to preserve the tread on the tires.

trade him and he’ll never be hurt again

I would absolutely trade him; he is one of the best "when" he plays but shows no signs of wanting to play for this team. Trade him for a day 2 pick or a WR and let some other team pick up his 5th year option.

I would honestly take a chance on him and extend him now while his value is at the lowest. Injuries have sucked, but he wasn't injury prone to my knowledge prior to coming to the Panthers.

He is still very good when he is on the field. I would pay him now and cross my fingers that he stays healthy the rest of his time with us. If he doesn't stay healthy, it is what it is - we probably aren't competing in the near future anyway. But if he does stay healthy, we could probably trade him for a lot of value if our team continues to suck (which it probably will)

I mean given we could still host a home playoff game and he’s a 1st round luck making millions of dollars, if he can play his ass needs to play.

This year is irrelevant to Horn. 

I will say I think his mentality is weak.  He had a hamstring injury in week 1.  It's week 10.  Aaron Rodgers blew out his achilles.  Required surgery.  He returned to practice this week.  Think what you will about Rodgers, his mentality is not weak.  Also, Rodgers is 40 years old.  From the outside looking in, JC looks like a guy who just doesn't want to be here.

Right now, Horn is three years into a career and has played the equivalent of one.  I could be wrong, he could never be injured again and have an All Pro or even Hall of Fame career ahead.  History doesn't stand on his side right now.

      Seattle was a run heavy team

      By Navy_football · Posted

      No it isn't. 😅😅😅 If someone says he can't throw X many yards because he didn't do it last year, but he threw it X plus 10 yards in college, that shows he can. He may not have done it in Carolina, but that doesn't mean he can't do it. There is a real possibility that there were extenuating circumstances. These definitive but inaccurate statements are also known as hot takes or gross exaggerations.

      Mingo stat. Lost yards on uncatchable balls

      By Wundrbread33 · Posted

      Thanks for posting this. I don’t know how many of you guys also visit the Reddit panther sub, but damn Mingo catches so much poo in there, and Bryce gets every excuse.    Seems like inconsistent logic to me that Bryce gets a pass for the team dysfunction, but Mingo is just a bust.   I saw inconsistent tape from Mingo, but he had plenty of examples of good route running…showing me he can do it.   He was a rookie, and naturally was inconsistent with it. I don’t think we are dealing with Dwayne Jarrett here. I look forward to seeing him develop more consistency…and I hope Bryce can get him the ball if he does.

      my thing is, we have seen lots of good QBs play behind really bad OLs at times.  And yes, bad OLs impact everything.  But those good QBs, still have lots of moments showing how good they are behind bad OLs.  And frankly, a bad OL has never made any of them what we were last year.   Heck, many of them go to the playoffs with bad OL play.   That's my Bryce issue.  He didn't have really any moments that a #1 overall pick should of had.  Bad OL play included.     But I concede, Bryce was setup to fail.  And fail he did.  But if he was special, I still think that still has it's moments no matter what.
