Matt Moore starting is highly unlikely....

...for the same reasons why so many of the trade scenarios mentioned here aren't going to happen.

Agree or not, all indications are that John Fox still believes Jake Delhomme gives the team their best chance to win. And again, because Fox's biggest concern is winning now (not preparing for the future) he's likely to stick with Delhomme until the bitter end.

Argue all you want about whether you think Moore (or even Feeley) gives us a better chance to win. It doesn't matter what you think. It only matters what Fox thinks.

Keep in mind, I'm a supporter of starting Moore.

I'm also a realist, and because of that I don't see it happening :nonod:

Moore hasn't shown anything. At all. Other than regressing through every preseason game I've seen him in. And not being able to unseat the mighty McCown for #2.

Feeley would get the nod first anyways.

We have got a laughable stable of QBs.

The Jake Delhomme era is over if you ask me. Still we will not see Moore till next year cause what has been said above. Its win as many at all cost this season with the hope of a Playoff berth. Not gonna happen if you ask me but thats the idea.

Thanks for this earth-shattering revelation Mr Scot.

Look, they (Hurney, Fox) gave a guy with one of the worst quarterback performances in playoff history a long-term extension with $20MM guaranteed.

Marty and Johnny have this year for the team to perform. If they fail, they're gone, and they know it. They made a big bet on Jake, given that, there are two possibilities:

1. Jake starts 16 games, the team recovers and goes to the playoffs, and they keep their jobs, or:

2. Jake starts 16 games, the team fails miserably at 5-11 or 6-10. Marty and John pack their bags.

It's about self-interest. It's business. They are the only two possibilities. It's not about right and wrong.

      Steelers fans will take over the Stadium and city   It will be unbearable  worse for me, on the west coast, resigned to the nfl network and you know it will be a steelers broadcast team.    It was ungodly bad with sheduer 2 weeks ago  Last game, tried listening  on panthers radio and  watching  on espn live last week but the delay between the 2 drove me nuts  so as bad as they were playing, found something else to do

      I mean I don't have a personal axe to grind with any human on the Panthers roster.  I know AT shouldn't be dominating the slot. The fact he is....is because we have a horrific front office/management.   I can part with any player.   The goal is a winning team.   the root of the AT ranting, is really just looking out for BY (people like to call me BY hater though).  A QB who was basically screwed from day 1 when we got drafted here.  I went hard at Carolina then too for setting him up to fail. Because it was obvious from the jump the setup was failure by design.  Which was true.   I said Frank bad zero sense with BY.  Miles Sandes made double zero sense.  The players they got in FA made zero sense.     Either you build a BY O.....or you move on from BY.  I have said I am cool either way.  We are in no man's land and have been there since they day we drafted him.

      It's the QB school guy mentality. Thielen is a shitty #1 option so aaarrrrggghhhh FUUUUUUUUUG HIM!!! This dude SUCKS!!! Yeah, Thielen should no longer be a #1 option at this stage in his career. He honestly shouldn't be a starter at this point in his career. But it's not an Adam Thielen issue that we've had to ask him to do that.
