Stats for corners mean nothing. Ill give you stats and you tell me if a guy had a good game, horrible game or didnt even play.

0 pass deflections

0 interceptions

0 tackles.

It could be any of the three options. You have to watch the games and ignore the stats for corners and Hogan is the second or third best corner on this team. So yeah cut him!!!

Where the f**k did I say cut him? Some of you guys just make over exaggerations and pull assumptions out of your ass for the sake of pie from others that are like you. I was debunking bleys remark that Hogan was a baller. He only played 3 games, didn't start any of them, and he's a baller? And how is he even the 2nd or 3rd best CB when he hasn't even been able to stay on the practice field this year, yet again, to prove he is that?

Potential and production are two entirely different things. Hogan may have the potential, but he's been unable to live up to that due to his injuries.

Part of the problem is that no one has a clear definition of the word 'baller' as it applies to an NFL CB.

Hogan, from what I understand, is not having knee problems, but has a different injury, and general soreness. Fans suggesting that we should cut Hogan are probably just stiring the pot because it's a boring Monday night.

"You're not a professional!" has got to be one of the biggest cop out horrible arguments this board constantly runs back to.

Actually it is a very legitimate point when fans criticize professionals without a clue what they are talking about. Unless you know what is truly going on then all you have is an uninformed opinion with nothing to back it up.

I didn't quote you did I?

at some point I have to include all counter points as the same person.. to anyone who thinks Brandon Hogan isn't a solid #2 aside from any knee issues after watching him shadow receivers last year then I have to assume they are being ridiculous... especially after this dude outplayed any CB in a Panthers uniform the last 7 years (not named Gamble).....

Dude was a baller who completely shadowed most receivers he played against last year... if anyone disagrees I beg they watch a few Panther games last year.. Granted he played 3 games, but dude was on par with anything everyone has expected from our #2 CB.... and yet we are hearing how much of a baller Josh Norman has been... I hope that clears everything up...

"(Brandon) had a good day today," Rivera said. "He was in the weight room and did some real heavy lifting on the leg. He had a problem with his quad on the knee that was repaired. We've got to get that stronger so he can get back on the field."

so in other words his knee is fine but he fudged his quad/its weak from not being able to work it.

ZOMG HIS KNEE WILL NEVER BE THE SAME.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
