Keep the faith with Matt Moore

Recommended Posts

A couple of interesting games last night. Jason Campbell and Leinart looked much improved. Campbell is now in his 5th year and finally looked like he's a quality starter. Leinart still looks a year away, showed that maybe he can be, too. This, after both have received constant criticism from the public as they've been developing. Their teams, however, have been patient and given them time. I'm not saying Moore will get there, but I think he has a great chance. We, as fans, have seen a few QBs jump right in and be successful recently, and want our guy to be able to do the same thing. Moore is still a great prospect, and this season is showing that a little time can be rewarding with these guys. The same can be said about Jackson in Minn. He's one to keep an eye on.

Agreed...Rodgers is the real deal I think.

Skins haven't really been "patient" with Campbell, they have been trying to replace him and haven't gotten the deal done so they are "stuck" with him. He looked really good last night though.

I think how you handle a rookie QB depends on the team around him. For example, I think the Jets aren't a bad team, so I would start Sanchez since reports are that he has the right mindset, understanding and work ethic to date. Stafford? I don't care what that man does, I wouldn't start him. That is a horrible football team and starting him too soon could ruin him for good IMO.

Jackson, not so much.

Aaron Rodgers looks set to become a superstar this year. Don't forget him.

This what I'm talking about. Campbell is in his 5th year...give Jackson another year, maybe two, and he may look a lot like Campbell. Rodgers developed quickly, playing well as soon as Faverah left. He fits in the category of QBs who have us a little jaded.

I agree, the Skins tried to dump Campbell, and are lucky that they couldn't.

its sad to say but i feel that matt will never get a chance unless jake gets hurt again..i think that even if jake throws 5 interceptions against philly in game 1 the coaching staff and management would still want to start jake the next game..its hard to explain the way they always make excuses for jake when he stinks it up..like he's the best option at QB we have etc..i actually think moore is very talented and could become a great QB but we may never know..atleast while jake is healthy..

If Moore doesn't show he can be even the #2 QB, I say he is gone after this season. Right now, he is just the #3. This is his 3rd season and I believe his contract is up. The Panthers traded for Josh McCown for a reason....because Moore was not ready to be the #2 last year, and so far this year he is still #3. He has 2 more preseason games to hopefully show he should be the #2 because I don't think McCown is the 'heir' to Jake.

Rodgers had a good 4 years to develop into a starting QB.. Totally wouldn't classify him as one of those who "left the league jaded", as you say. He would be an example of letting your future QB develop on the bench instead of throwing him to the wolves.

IMO, all back up QB's get a raw deal in these pre season games. They're always playing behind a line that hasn't had nearly as many practice reps as the 1's, plus they haven't been together very long. That's why I was glad to see Moore get some time with the 1's last week. I would like to see both McCown and Cantwell get the same opportunity, but I doubt it will happen for Cantwell.

Wrong, wrong and wrong! We took McCown because Moore broke his leg....look at you making stuff up.

The Panthers were interested in McCown for several seasons. They made the move for him when he became available because of the Favre-Pennington move. It was NOT because of the Moore injury.

Big difference in my opinion between Moore and all the other QBs discussed in this thread. They were all drafted and early. I am not saying Moore cant be the future, and I understand draft status doesnt equate to NFL success. I guess I need to see more of Moore to think he has a future like Rodgers, Cambell, Leinert, etc........

    • Not in same league. Caldwell just hit a 10.00 on the RAS. 2nd out of 3830 from 1987 onward.  https://x.com/MathBomb/status/2027885023387349047 Yeah I mean Louis had a sub 9.00 RAS. Still very very good, no doubt. Louis is small, no 2 ways about it. He is likely a sub package lb in nickel packages or specialized WLB. Be fine ST gunner to start for sure. 6 foot flat and 220lb is pushing it for a starting LB. At 10 to 20lbs less than the other LBs he'd better be closer to the top in most timed drills. He's gonna be challenged when some of the wrs in the class can matchup bigger stronger faster, much less TE in the run game.  Yeah instinct matter and he has them, but that size is a massive red flag compared to many of the other LBS in this class.    Rodriguez is the LB that really climbed this week from a pure grit guy to great flash with athleticism people wrote off cause he was a QB at first at UVA. 18.4mph in the backpedal. Production the last 2 years were great. I'd be thrilled with him as the future mike.   Hill likely moved out of 51 and into the top 45 picks ( Ravens at 45 I can't imagine don't bite if he makes it there). Honestly Hill imo is a 1st rounder and I'd be ok with him as he fits the MLB we have missed the last few years. People would crow it's a reach but he's top 30 all-time I'm RAS for a LB at 9.9+ . Plus he was big time in big games when he was healthy. And that br a big check: meds. 
    • Miller, Melo, Coby, Moose, and Bridges all on the floor at the same time must be a nightmare for defenses lol. Switch one out for Kon and still a nightmare. Coby really does bring a true 6th man value and looks like he could start if Melo was out after only a few games of getting his feet wet.
