If someone other than Delhomme starts @ QB

Double-edged sword

1. Announce ______ as your starter this Sunday and give him the first team reps all week, but lose the element of surprise, or...

2. Make a last second decision to start _______ and not have that guy in tune all week with the first team.

I'm really not sure it matters at all. Say it's Matt Moore - there is no valid film of him to study (except for three games late in 2007).

all three will be getting reps with the starter, probably in equal capacity. if someone really jumps out it might be different but for any type of competitive advantage they want to have, they will split it pretty evenly.

which really hurts Moore or Feely's chances. If Fox wants to go w/ a backup he needs to pick a guy and give them majority of the reps heading into this weekend. There is a reason Fox thinks Jake is the best guy still....no one gets much of a chance....even when Fox says he is thinking about giving a guy he really doesn't trust a chance...maybe....wait,let's go back to talking about how Jake is still awesome.

kind of reminds me of how denny green handled the cardinals QB situation with mccown/warner....i guess the same thing was done with leinart as well, where there would be times in which the starter wasn't decided on until sunday. the rest of the week went on with reps being split between the two.

dividing it up between three would be tougher, though.

i still think that had they not panicked and placed mccown on IR there wouldn't be as much of a tough decision here.

what am i saying? only way it wouldnt' be a tough call is if jake got hurt.

btw....is it a bad thing if every time jake was slow to get up from a sack or big hit that a little part of me felt hopeful? not really wishing for injury but excited that a change could be right around the corner.

      @PantherChrisgrow the fug up.  We read you whine and bitch about so much all the time, let someone have their own take on things instead of being a petulant child.

      RODS gotta GO

      Florida is the only team that would be doing that to us, and it happens when we are down Chatty, Walker isn't 100% and our top players are being molested in plain view on the ice. Florida is bigger and just as fast as we are, they have the two biggest agitating arseholes in the NHL in Marchand and Tkachuk, have a solid coach and a lot of nice pieces that make that team the best in the East by a good margin this year and possibly back to back Cup champions.  I fail to mention Zito who has been aggressive in getting Marchand and Seth Jones plus other players at the deadline to fill in any weaknesses. We have taken the long term, we have a shot every year approach and keep coming up short.  This is the summer to come away with the last needed pieces and if that takes sacrificing some prospects and picks we have to do it.  We have Freddie who is a very good goalie, but I still think young Kooch needs more time - he shows flashes but he still isn't right between the ears yet. This is definitely it for Orlov, not sure about Burns although he has looked it the last half of the season.  It would be nice to be able to get rid of KK somehow.  Svech has never become the guy I thought he'd be so a pure scorer would be nice.  I still like where this organization is EVEN with RBA coaching.  Do we discredit everything the guy has done in years where we weren't supposed to make the playoffs let alone win some series etc??  We need a bit more size, but I like we added Walker, Carrier, and Robinson who all had some good experience and didn't mind showing some grit.  Who's Back:    Forwards:  Aho, Svech, Jarvy, Blake, Hall, Carrier, Staal, Marty, Stankoven (need to sign to a bridge at least), KK  (really need to trade him this summer or next year for sure, his NMC kicks in 26-27) Defensemen:  Slavin, Walker, Chatty, Ghost, Nikishin, Morrow Goalies:  Freddy, Koochy Potential: Forwards:   Nadeau (he was like a -20 in Chicago so he'll have to really earn Rod's trust), Robidas, FUS didn't have a great season, Bring back Roslovic?, Jost for cheap?? Defensemen:  Technically Nikishin and Morrow, but I have them replacing Orlov and Burns above, Honka, Probably will sign one who plays good D and doesn't break the bank Goalies:  Khazheyev?, Sign one possibly?? tl;dr:  Bottom line is we are definitely going to need to sign a Defenseman or two, and 2-3 Forwards with 2 being scorers and hopefully taller than 6'0".  We have really good depth at forward, we are thinning out at D, and our goalies.....I am just not sure.

      You never really know when a team is going to turn a corner and make a deep playoff run.  I say take a swing, this could be like Tillman in 2015
