Joe Horn wants to be a Falcon ...

The point is, noone is knocking what Joe HAS done, I am knocking what he WILL BE doing in 1, 2 or 3 years. Joe has demanded top 5 money, get that? He isn\'t a top 5 receiver now, I doubt he will be going forward. So the difference is, you wanna pay Joe for what he HAS done, when all common knowledge of the NFL and age show he will not be able to continue to do that. How dumb will we look then?

You could have said the EXACT SAME THING two years ago when he signed his contract extension, and you would have been COMPLETELY WRONG.

First, Joe Horn is a top 5 WR. He\'s top 5 based on what he produces on the field. That\'s what matters in the NFL, in case you hadn\'t noticed. If only talent matters, the Saints are better than the Patriots. You ready to make that statement?

Second, I\'m not playing the crystal ball game and tell you what Joe Horn will or won\'t do 3 years from now. I\'m glad that you can predict the future, I can\'t. What I am telling you is that the man has not shown signs of slowing. He isn\'t losing a step yet.
