2 passes for Horn in the quarter
[Reply]

I hope we have a decent backup kicker. His yips started at the end of last season and he’s obviously still got them.

Half Horn, half receiver.

Not a good pass

3.

Bad throw. Put it behind the WR and the WR had to make an awfully difficult adjustment on the ball. That's a ball that gets picked more often than not. It's the exact sort of throw Buechele was making.

First real action but that wasn't a good toss on a relatively easy throw.

Wow, total shit show in the 2nd half.

It wasn't entirely on Horn, no.

But it wasn't half either.

That's 80% on the quarterback. Nothing good is ever going to come from making that throw where he made it.

I wouldn't say we have a ballgame just yet - but it's a possession away from being one.

Time to show us you've got some hair on your peaches, Sam. Big possession, kid.

Don’t see the point in babying him, hard to get in a rhythm when it’s run-run-pass. Let it fly and see what he’s got.

It's gonna happen with someone green looking to impress. Still on him though.

But at least from my shitty viewing angle from the table, the receiver was trying to body catch that and did no favors.

More interested to see if he can bounceback.

Receiver did everything he could to get that ball - it wasn't a body catch because the throw wasn't on his body.

It was a solid 3-4 feet away from where it needed to be; very behind him and he reached his arms back as he was going to ground to try to snag it and just couldn't.

Receiver didn't do anything wrong there - he just couldn't pick his QB up. He made a hell of an effort.

This looks like last year’s team sooooo much it’s scary….

This is gonna be a long year….
[Reply]

Once again. Hard to see exactly from a weird ass viewing angle.

And Horn's not looking as mobile or as decisive back there either.

Fellas - say it's a product of how they've been used if you want to but there's really no argument to make at all that Horn's looked nearly as good as Cook tonight.

Again - he's a baby. This is absolutely to be expected. But lets not call this anything it isn't. Today's performance doesn't need to go to the cards; Cook won this one by 4th round KO.

I hope that doesn't close the book, though. I want to see Horn continue to get snaps in some of these games to see if he can get over some jitters and the talent can play up.

Not a good response by Horn. Another brutal penalty didn't help.
