100% for it. Without Horn the secondary's a liability again. 

The question is whether he'd even want to go to Carolina.

We're currently the #1 defense in the league.  Why would he not want to come and contribute.  As noted earlier, there is some connection with Fitterer.

My only concern is he still quick enough for our defense.  As a veteran his presence would be nice but if he can't fly around like he used to it might hurt our defense.

The Horn injury sucks but we need to try to avoid panic signings. We are trying to build sustained success, not a Hurney-esque trove of over-the-hill vets in a quest for "this is our year!"

 

Trading for Jared Allen was a good move in 2015. I think it’s a great idea. 
 

Horn was contributing and windows are small. A 1 year deal isn’t panicking.

As long as we don't mortgage our future I trust Fitz and Co. to make a good decision here. I would not say that this is our year, but our schedule is light. If we can get in the playoffs, and get CMC and Horn back by then, anything can happen. I am not opposed to making moves. But no, this year is not a, "Go out and trade a lot of picks for a STUD what the heck ever." We need those picks for sustained success. We don't need to give up future picks for a player now that MAY or MAY NOT put us over the hump. Our window isn't closing, it is opening.

We need to keep reminding ourselves that this is not our year.  We're a promising young team with loads of potential, but realistically we're still a season away from really competing.

Agreed. This has been phenomenal and it shows we might be, once again, ahead of schedule. That's really fuging enough for me.

I don't need a 15 win season(although I would take it for sure). Just keep showing this progress and that the majority of the offseasons moves were right.

Bouye is as good or better. And he plays man coverage. Sherman was never known for that.

 

We want man corners. That's why we got Melvin, Bouye, Horn. Why get a guy who doesn't do that when we  already have the guys we picked up to fill those roles before the draft unfurled?

      My Personal Takeaway from This Game vs Cheifs

      By Hoenheim · Posted

      What I really learned here is that the Carolina Panthers aren't anywhere near as bad as I initially thought they were earlier this year.  We've got a young and growing offense with some promising parts. But it still needs some tweaks and improvements.  We really still could still use a dominant #1 WR. But Chubba,  Legette, Coker,  and J.Sanders have generally looked decent. Bryce took a big leap after the benching. We can score enough points to keep pace with 2x defending super bowl champions, so offense isn't a huge issue. Main thing that needs improvement is defense. We sorely need a CB 2, and a number of new players at Dline and LB.  We're not quite as bad at edge with Wonnum showing promise.  But we definitely need 1 or 2 more edges Clowney is old.  Run D is probably worse prevailing theme these past couple years. We really need a good young stud or two to pair with Derrick Brown and another LB to pair up with Trevin Wallace. If Morgan and Canales can focus on rebuilding the defense this off-season and possibly going out and getting a #1 WR. This team could easily be somewhere around 7-10 to 10-7 and flirting with playoffs in 1 or 2 seasons. Overall this game has made me feel alot more positive about the direction of the team.

      Team is looking good for next season

      With our picks we need pass rush, lb, Safety, a speedster yac wr, o line depth and I still want a mid round qb. We got 9 picks and 8 in the first 5 rounds. If they pull Off another solid draft we be cooking.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By frankw · Posted

      We had one passing touchdown against the Giants and one passing touchdown against the Chiefs today. Yes a good backup can replicate that. And that is why Andy Dalton in significantly less games has the same number of 30 point outings as Bryce Young. I am on board with you guys about wanting to be hopeful for the future. Today was a good performance to build on especially at home. But let's please keep things in perspective. BTW the Bucs who honestly aren't even that good blew the doors off the Giants today after we went to overtime against them with 17 points. Again. Perspective.
