Dan Morgan on Matt Moore


Guest

Then WHY is Moore still on the damn team?!?

I swear every time I hear some stupid crap like this it makes me sure that Fox is a MORON! If the guy couldn't learn the playbook then he should have been cut and we should have picked up a capable backup QB in the off season.

I'm sure Moore knows the playbook. If there's any reason Fox won't play him, it's either because he's not a veteran, or because he's not Jake Delhomme. And he won't cut him because he's too loyal. Basically: Fox is a moron and not cut out to be a coach. You can't be scared of hurting your players feelings. It's one thing to be nice, it's another thing to hold your team back because you're a pussy.

I highly doubt Vinnie Testaverde knew the entire playbook when he came in to start after being on the roster, what, barely a week? (just looked it up; it was four days.) And the only reason he did was because Fox was too scared to play Moore (who, as an undrafted rookie, outplayed both Carr and Testaverde that year) back then too.

First of all I don't think Morgan is sticking up for Jake by making this comment. I heard him and he said he would bench Jake, and believes Fox will do so this week. Then Mac asked him who should start that is when he went into from what he hears that Moore is a little weak on the playbook, he didn't say he didn't know how to read, maybe he just doesn't know everything. Then he said if Feely knew enough, he would start him over Moore, for the experience.

    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
