Moore or Feeley?

If Fox makes a move, which of the 2 does he play? Moore is the popular choice and has more experience in the system but if the FO trusted him they would have not put McCown on IR . They would have waited for him to recover and used Moore as their backup if needed. By putting McCown on IR and signing Feeley, they did not give Moore a vote of confidence.

For those citing Moore as the number 2 on the depth chart, wasn't Jake the number 3 quarterback when he came in for Peete with Weinke as the number 2. There is precedence.

Feeley also has had a month to learn the system. Plus what we ran yesterday from a passing point of view looked a lot like a WCO with short passes to the receivers and running backs out of the backfield.

Personally I don't have a clue who has looked better in practice this year so far. I wonder if they will give them both reps and see who looks the best and announce it later in the week. Or will they just go with the popular choice and start Moore??

Given that this season is pretty much done....4 games back in the division....I would vote for Moore.

Feeley is an older vet and is not in the Panthers future plans.

Moore is young and unknown. WE are not sure what we have in him. I would rather suck this season and find out that Moore is not the answer, rather than limp to 7-9 or 6-10 with Feeley and still not have a clue about Moore.

Just my opinion.

I have mentioned this in another thread when Feeley first joined the team.

There is a good possibility of a change right now and the reason for that change is to win football games. I think Feely is the best choice. I know it makes sense to see what Moore really has but I think at this time to throw what may be considered the "future" of the franchise into a season-saving role then it may be too much end up cracking him mentally.

Feeley on the other hand is not expected to do very much and may have more motivation than anybody to extend his career on a team that has a great O-line, great defense and great RB's. I would love to see him manage the game and mentor Moore. Jake has nothing to teach anybody about game management anymore IMO.

I would be very happy to see AJ start or take over this week.

I think 10-6 could maybe get a wildcard.If coach fox would start Matt from here out I could see us pushing for the last wc spot cause all that is holding us back is solid qb play.the defense has gotten its act together plus add that in with our running game I think its a chance we could push for 10-6.

This season its like watching your golf game. You know the worst part of your game is the short game. One day everything is going right in the short game but everything else is off...

Watch whoever we start at QB this week play lights out, hell i'll even through in the special teams in too. But then watch our defense get worked all over the field.

    • Rumors are the team is in fact done with Ikem. So it was going to be a LT, just depended on which one got to them at 19. 
    • I have not read the entire thread, and I realize this is fluff to a degree, but it was recorded in real time.  Here are 10 things that stood out to me: 1. Morgan wrote down (before day 3) the first three day 3 picks.  (Lee, Hecht, and Wheatley).  I was never fond of the Morgan hiring as GM.  I thought he was a lazy selection and I questioned his ability to match wits with some of the best GMs in the NFL.  Not any more. Morgan OWNED this draft.  He knew which players were good fits and when they would be bargains, and he got bargains.  I am thoroughly excited about every player. 2. Canales said (about Hecht, a 5th rounder):  "He has a real chance to start."   Morgan said the same thing about Freeling. While I do not expect either to start day 1, it looks to me like we drafted 40% of our starting OL in 2026.  I think we will sign Ickey to a deal and play him at RG, allowing us to escape the Robert Hunt contract in 2027.  Of course that is conditional, and Ickey could replace Moton instead, but if he fully recovers, we are looking at a better RG/RT than he was a LT--which was average.  3. When Morgan said to second-round DT Hunter, "Ready to play beside Derrick Brown?"  Based on personalities, one calm and soft spoken (for the Most part, Brown is) and the other talkative and openly enthusiastic, it reminded me of Brentson Buckner and Kris Jenkins.   4.  Perhaps the steal of the draft was Tennessee WR Chris Brazzell II.  Clearly the Panthers felt that they passed on him when they took Hunter in round 2.  They mentioned his skill set (able to attack on "all three levels.")  This sent me back to watching film. He has speed, hands, and he produced without a great QB. I think he could be great in the NFL.  When  5. Tepper was a bit more involved than I would like, but he seems to be very confident in Morgan.  If I were the owner, I would be doing the same thing.  Canales was also somewhat of a background character--everyone understood his role and stayed in his lane.   6.  I am also very interested in the quantitative analytics aspect of the draft room.  (something like, "He has a 94% chance of being there at pick 55, and a 38% chance of being there at 87). I would like to know their formula, because it seemed to be spot on. 7.  BPA?  Not really.  They had a shopping list and seemed to be targeting the players they selected. I realize other players were edited out, but I was impressed how they knew, by round, who they wanted and if there were multiple options sitting there, they traded back. 8.  Evero (I think) called Lee a candidate that would serve as the "#3 CB."  Morgan describes his size as a plus (Long). Strong praise for a 4th rounder.  If so, we have Thornton coming off injury who played well as an UDFA rookie and they will battle it out to become Jackson's replacement after the 2026 season, assuming the Panthers do not extend him (he turns 30 in 7 months.O 9.  I think we could realistically see every one of these draft picks play this season, and I believe most could start by next year--Realistically, Freeling, Hunter, Hecht, and Brazzell could all be starting or key rotational pieces this year.  I see Lee and Wheatley getting special teams reps and both could be used this season more than expected.   10.  Kuwatch seemed to be predetermined with the final pick, probably because he can add something special to special teams.   He and Bam Martin Scott will fight it out for the 4th ILB position, so it will probably come down to special teams--and Kuwatch stands out there.  Imagine an ILB with a 46.5 vertical (not a typo) on the FG block team.  Kuwatch has an 8.85 RAS score vs. Martin-Scott's 7.5.  
    • They did mention Bain as the pick if he fell but didnt seem confident that would be the case.
