....and now Jaycee's deal looks like a steal. Been exactly one week. Imagine what it will look like after next offseason. 

Pay your good players to stay. Their deals always look better a year or two later. Don't overpay for average talent. But blue chip talent? pay.

The "Horn has never finished a season" narrative is ignorant at best, willfully misleading at worst. He would've finished last season had the team been playing into the postseason. He got shut down out an abundance of caution, likely a lesson learned after losing Corbett at the end of the prior season.

you are giving Horn a benefit of the doubt his career history says he shouldn't get.   We don't know he would have suited up if it mattered at the end.  Horn was limited the week prior going into the AZ game.  

and then the only reason you shut him down and only him.....is he so injury prone vs the rest of the field.  Which isn't really a great aspect of Horn.  That he has to get special treatment because he is so easily injured.

You're assuming that he shouldn't get credit for being shut down out of an abundance of caution when he participated in the relay race (1/30/25) + flag football (2/2/25) at the Pro Bowl? He was inactive for the Panthers' last two games on 12/29/24 and 1/5/25. He most definitely would have suited up if there was a postseason run coming.

They also shut Josey Jewell down for the final two weeks along with Jaycee Horn. Robert Hunt was also out for week 18. Was it because they're injury prone and need special treatment too? That's ridiculous to assume. This isn't something uncommon for a team with a losing record to do. Hurney especially was notorious for it.

Yeah, I’m not giving the benefit of the doubt to someone that has been Mr. Glass throughout his entire career here.   I don’t know if he would have suited up if it mattered….because it’s Jayce Horn.  Hunt isn’t Horn.  No one is Horn. 

it’s not dishonest to point out Horn had never played a full season.  He hasn’t.   He barely has played over 50% of the time.

Throughout his entire career? Every player is hurt by the end of the season. You have the fact that he suited up for a meaningless all-star game sitting right there but you still doubt he'd have suited up for the postseason? That's not exactly rational.

He played all of last season and was shutdown in preparation to make sure he'd be healthy for this season when he costs the team $25M. Holding that against him isn't rational. We can hold the totality of it against him, sure. Having two seasons where he missed over 50% of the games is something that needs to be paid attention to. To sit here though and point at last season as a knock against him? Nonsensical.

Yes.  Throughout out his entire career.  Not sure what you are trying to argue....that Jayce Horn hasn't been Mr. Glass while in Carolina? Jeff Otah while employed started in a higher % of games and he is the historical board meme for not being able to play. 

His cumulative career and not suiting up is the knock.  And given what that has been....I'm not cherry picking last year out and just assuming a guy that never can stay healthy totally would have been there if we needed him.

Since the departure of this team’s defensive greats, there has been a gigantic void at home grown talent who has the cred to hold dudes accountable. I see Horn having that quality in spades. 

 when bro showed up out of nowhere to bow up on offensive linemen during the dust up, I saw it. Heart. Leadership. Those guys are gold and don’t just disappear when the ink dries.

That's not even true...

Jeff Otah started 29/64 games (missed all of 2010) = 45%.

Horn started 37/68 games = 54%.

4 extra games and only 8 more starts.

Considering that a win is basically victory lapping a blind kid.

It's a near 10% swing, but if you really want to look at the data, Horne would be trending MUCH better.  Otah missed a completely season and only played 4 games his final 2 years.  Horne just had his healthiest season yet.   Otah's was also a reoccurring knee injury while Horne's were more random.  It's really apples to oranges IMO.  

Honestly I think the comparison was just thrown out there for theatrics and just proven wrong.  No big deal.

Honestly it doesn't change anything for me anyways. It was rather amusing is all considering everything we've witnessed as Panthers fans.

Let's just all agree it would be fantastic to see Horn go on from here to be one of the more reliably healthy players on our roster for the foreseeable future. The odds aren't great but I guess it's all we've got.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By Seltzer · Posted

      100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.

      "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
