I believe in Jake Delhomme

I believe in Jake Delhomme. I do, I really do.

I believe in the story of a guy who comes out of nowhere and gets a shot. I love the story of a nobody coming off the bench and taking a team to the Super Bowl that had never been there before.

I believe in a guy who has played beyond what the critics say his ability is. I love the story of an everyman schmoe who breaks into the big time.

I believe in a guy who will wing it out there in the hope and belief that his go to guy will catch it and make something happen.

I believe in a guy that suffers what should have been a career ending injury and he works his way back. I love the fact that the guy takes his team to its best regular season schedule ever.

I believe in the guy who has the worst game of his career, in the national spotlight, on his birthday. I love the fact that when he could have shifted the blame, he said it was all on him.

I believe in the guy who came back to play again even when almost everyone had quit on him. And I love that even in the face of adversity, he's still winging that ball downfield, trying to make something happen, and trusting in his teammates.

And I believe in the guy that still takes all the blame on his shoulders. And I love the fact that his coach is going to stand by him and let him have one last shot to get his revenge this Sunday and to get back what was taken from him.

Here's to you, Jake. I'll cheer when you take the field and I'll cheer when you walk off the field the victor. If it doesn't work out, I'll still be a fan forever.

I didn't think he was done until the Buffalo game. Up until then it seemed to be more of team thing. Now I think he is broken, like Rick Ankiel in pitching a few years back, but hey miracles do happen. Ankiel is playing in the bigs again, maybe Delhomme can play special teams :).

To me, this is the game. The Cardinals are the team that this whole thing really started against, and they could be the team it ends against. I've been as big a Jake supporter as anyone, and a much bigger one than most on here. I think if he gets it done this weekend, it could be a corner he's starting to turn. If not, I don't know that I'll think he's our guy anymore.

    • It's a failing of most first time HCs. I get an OC not being a defensive expert but they do play the other side every week so it always amazes me that poop slides so often. First year? Sure but as time goes on they need to be a HC and have a balanced and good team in the end. They went offense for that reason and the QB issues the team had. They had to go WR again this year because they failed so hard last year at that position in the first. That's on both the HC and GM on that miss IMO. This year they went out and got a bunch of free agents and drafted more on the D. It just doesn't appear they did it well again. Add in keeping Evero and missing out on an expensive free agent, thankfully but it would have lessened the cap gap in spending, it's not like they didn't try. It's more of an issue of competency than cap. Building around Evero after last year is damning for thr GM and HC. That's the biggest issue. They just didn't do any of it well. Now they have some younger talent and I don't think there is a decent coach in that house.
    • Inside linebacker is basically non existent. And that goes against everything that has been Carolina Panthers for a couple decades now. And that is just one such area that has suffered as we have paid through the nose to build up our offense around a bad investment.
    • Thats why its going to suck spending another top 10 pick on a qb instead of an elite Lb, pass rusher or whatever.  but it what it is and you have to have a qb to win in this league
