I think Horn really just had one really bad play Sunday.  But that's sort of what you pay him for.....that one man on man play at the goal vs Olave.  That's supposed to be Horn's strength.  Being able to play man over zone. 

I still think Horn lacks the one season that actually proves he is what we think he is. 

On the season his stat line versus NO is:

8 completions on 12 targets, 157 yds, 3 TD's, 0 INT's, 2 Passes Deflected 

Half of his total TD's allowed has been to the Saints.

The Saints have absolutely dominated him.

If you are going to line him up against Olave, who is a great route runner, you have to let him press him and get him off his route.  Playing him on an island against Olave with 5-8 yards space in front of him is not using him to the best of his abilities IMO and it gives Olave a nice advantage.

I haven't got a problem with Horn. But I have got a problem with paying him that contract while he plays in this soft coverage crap we trot out week in week out 

 

That's my issue, he's got the top CB money for a few days, like in the largest CB contract in NFL history and I believe he still has a large guarantee which is tied to GP, but....... he's had bad moments during the season for being the "guy". Still a fan and all, but I understand the whispers, cause Ive had them during the season. Then he has a 2 INT game, but falls down twice in the next game.....I swear the trolly "he's got money on the game comments"....... it has felt like that at times..... lock in horn they need you!!

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
