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.

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By PanthersATL · Posted

      They said there wasn't clear evidence to warrant the overturn.  How would it have made a difference at that point in the game?   https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/nfl-privately-admitted-to-erroneous-reversal-of-catch-by-panthers

      WWE pay per view and programming thread

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Me, I'm sick of WWE channel hopping their PLEs and shows. Netflix now with Raw. USA still has Smackdown but you can't get it with Roku if you don't also have cable. Then they went from all the PLEs on Peacock to ESPN+ which required upgrading your Disney+ package. Then they frikkin' move Saturday Night Main Event with John Cena's retirement match back over to frikkin' Peacock, which we'd just cancelled two months prior because no PLEs there anymore. And there are fewer, but longer matches and its the same danged stories again and again. Rematch after rematch after rematch between PLEs. Fewer matches, fewer wrestlers, more promos (of lesser quality) and less action.  It just seems like it's all fillers and re-runs. I'm tired of Cody Rhodes. I'm tired of Jey Uso. I'm tired of the two Brons. Shuffle the deck a bit guys, this game's getting stale.

      Going for it instead of leading by two scores in the 4th

      By CPantherKing · Posted

      Chuba was 3 yards behind the 3 gap. He was lined up weak offset I. It was a 33 dive. Chuba needed to power through off of Ekwonu's block and slip off into the 5 gap where the Tremble had the lane sealed and Rick pulled the LB out of the 5 gap. Here's a visual if you need proof. Chuba did a jump cut laterally to the 2 gap on the right side with unblocked defenders crashing down and went airborne.   This is a 33 dive that should have been slipped off the block into the 5 gap. Chuba lacked vision, but you can see Rico and Bryce staring at the intended running lane sealed off by Tremble and Ekwonu. He should have read Ekwonu's block. The blocking and misdirection is NOT set up for the right side. The play worked. Chuba failed to execute on this play. Trust who you want to, but I wouldn't suggest you argue with the video. Anyone telling you this was drawn up to go right with the blocking did not analyze it. They are correct it should have been a called dive, and it was a called dive.  This was a weak offset I bringing Tremble in motion from the right to the left.
