Looks like I'm going to the army...yay me.


Awesomeness!!

Recommended Posts

The funny thing about life is that 2 years ago, if someone would have came up to me, talking about the damn army I would have laughed. I only signed up for JROTC for the easy credit (turns up to be a harder class that I thought). Idk. I guess the idea of 'free' education at a college is too much for me to pass up. I'm not thrilled about all the training and whatnot, but hey..what can you do? Everyone in my family keeps telling me I might die or what ever, but considering I'm from Birmingham Alabama, that doesn't really bother me. Then again, I'll probably get the fear of god in me if I'm ever deployed to a war zone( hopefully the Wars in the Middle East are over by that time). But knowing my luck, WW3 will start the day I turn 18.

    • See my post edit above, he certainly hasn’t had that lockdown/on an island type of effect. Josh Norman has that type of effect for a couple years with us and I’ll be honest that I haven’t felt like that for Horn yet. Looking at his 2024 stats (https://www.pff.com/nfl/players/jaycee-horn/83375#seasonStatsWidget) doesn’t scream top QB. I think he’s good but I cringe a little when I hear he’s elite when healthy since his most healthy year was when we set a record for points against.
    • Our defense hasn't been elite. That doesn't mean that an individual player hasn't been. All an elite CB can do for your defense is greatly limit the other team's best receiver or greatly limit the passing success to his side of the field if he's a zone guy. There's still a lot of opportunity for the opposing team elsewhere.  I'm not saying he's a Luke or a Peppers. He's not. But I think he's a top 10 CB when healthy. I consider a top 10 CB to be elite. If you have a different definition, that's fine. I'm not gonna really argue where we draw that line or even if you think Horn is saying top 15 instead of top 10. Again, fine. Not really gonna argue that either. All I'm really trying to argue is that Horn is pretty damn good when he's on the field.
    • I'm not saying there's not a place for him here. I'm saying we massively overpaid for his skill set in today's NFL. Both statements can absolutely be true.
