A.J. Feely must be even suckier than Moore if he's number 3. I don't know what's going on in Fox's head, but this crap has to end. I'm sorry but for the first time I find my self rooting against Jake, because this crap is ridiculous.

it's not about matt moore.

it's everything about john fox and his loyalty to jake.

we could have tom brady on the bench but fox wouldnt' care.

he will do what he wants to whether it makes sense or not. it is what it is. fox can not remove his head from his rectum.

If Fox benches Jake he admits he was wrong and shouldn't have even went into the season with Jake. He's just hoping Jake comes out and has one of his "good" games so it'll make him less of a failure. I think Jake is actually Fox's son, it's the only explaination.

On a related note, my buddy just picked up Arizona's defense off fantasy football FA list, he's pretty excited being guarenteed 2-3 picks, and maybe a fumble.

But do you think that John Fox cares about Jake Delhomme more than his own job??? He honestly thinks that hes our best chance...At this point this is more about Fox's job than Jakes.

Moore having success proves Fox can't make the right calls. Moore proved Fox was wrong in 07.

Don't think for one second Fox won't ride Jake all year...tell the Big Cat he lost his backup QB and had no choice but to stick w/ Jake.

Fox going to Moore now and Moore performing well....would just be more proof of his glaring flaw as a coach. If he sticks w/ Jake and doesnt go to Moore....he can just say his evaluation was correct....and there is nothing to prove otherwise.

fox is unwilling to change his mind because that implies weakness and that you might have been wrong about something.

Agreed. Fox is just to afraid to try something that might actually work for him. Fox knows his coaching job is most likly over. Right now there is other teams out there that will be wanting a new HC next year. But fox is not making himself look good for another HC job for next year. Fox is just making himself look like a moron in front of the Nation right now by keeping with Jake as starter. Fox job is done for. :auto:

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      LWOS on the FO's error--my word--on X...traits, timelines, Brazzell, & indications of improvement.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
