Should Jake still have that "C" on his jersey?

Should Jake still be a captain? I know being a captain is about more than just your play, but at some point should the team strip him of his captain status if he continues to play this way?

Right now I wouldn't do it, it would be one more blow to his confidence which already is pretty fragile.... but if he gets benched, should the team take away his captain status?

Considering the players decide on team captains, no, I don't think they should take away Delhomme's captain patch, which wasn't give to him because of his all-pro playing ability in the first place. Jake's still a leader of this team -- to take away one of his best traits would be to ruin this season, in my opinion. Even if Moore or some other quarterback gets the nod, Jake should still remain a captain.

I agree to a certain extent, but how can you be a leader when you're playing as bad as Jake has lately?

Jake is a stand-up guy, so I wouldn't be suprised if he stepped down as a team captain long before anyone has to take it away from him.

      XL is a Lost Cause

      It appears that he sees things differently than the QB and OC, so Cam's advice is spot on. It isn't about number of targets, it's about quality of targets. Trust and being on the same page. BY doesn't know how to anticipate what XL is doing. And XL doesn't like where BY is placing passes. One on one film study would go a long way. More for BY than XL though. He has to adjust to XL. I really don't think XL can adjust on the fly.

      If the team shows improvement, then he shouldn't be in danger of losing his job - even if the record doesn't reflect. This was a very young team (with a lot of new vet starters) that overperformed last season. Somebody's doing something right. Consistency is key with so much youth. And we're potentially looking at new starters at ILB and FS. Those are positions that take time to fully understand the defense. ILB calls the front 7. Safety calls the back 4. Injuries at WR and IOL killed the offense last season. Depth needs to be upgraded. Same with Edge. I think they would have won more games if Pat Jones doesn't go down early. Be smart with the roster and draft. Trade players for assets when it's time to pay them more than they're worth - yes, that includes BY if he doesn't make a pretty big jump. That's one of the many reasons Tillis is as important as anyone to the future of this team.
