IF Moore Bombs

1st I believe Moore will do just fine.

But what if? What if Moore Bombs out in two or three games? What would you do?

1. Let Feely finish the season?

2. Waive Moore and bring up Hunter Cantwell and see what he has?

3. Let Jake finish the year?

I would like to see Hunter play. If the season is lost and Moore isn't the answer why not allow Hunter a chance to play with the 1st team offense. I would think this would give us an opportunity to see whether he is worthy of keeping around in 2010.

I would stick with Moore the rest of the season no matter what. I think the Panthers owe 5 games to him after starting delhomme for 11 and performing how he did.

Feely has had tons of opportunities. He is a career backup at best.

I personally don't think Moore is going to fail. All the games I saw him play he seemed to have good poise and didn't look out of place.

I know pre-season especially 3rd and 4th Qtr are garbage times but didn't Hunter have a solid outing during pre-season? My only reason I would like to see him in a real game is to see how he plays with the starting line up. This guy wasn't bad at Louisville and another unknown great came from Louisville............

Damn, exactly what I was going to say.

The season is finished anyway, it wouldn't matter. We would know there's no QB on next year's roster.

Well the time is now to find out for sure. Moore will prove he has what it takes. I am a believer. He will have his growing pains and I am sure the 1st INT he throws everyone is going to be screaming to bench him.

I think our perspective of "bombed" is so great...I can't possibly see him meeting that expectation.

But in the offchance he does throw 7 picks in the next game...it's a testament of our scouting and everyone should be fired.

To answer your questions:

1. Maybe

2. No

3. No

This is the main problems I see.

If we play well, does that mean we keep it status quo for next year, or do you bring in a new coach new system who could either A) make things better B) make things worse.

If Moore doesn't play well now, do we still draft a QB or do we address DT, WR, CB, LB positions first?

If Moore plays out of this world does that mean we don't get a QB especially if a highly rated QB falls to us in the second round?

Do we keep Jake as a backup, and if we do will it affect Moore?

If Moore stinks up the place, does it vindicate Fox sticking with Jake, or does it indite Hurney for not coming up with a viable alternative? Or both.

If Peppers plays lights out the rest of the year, does that help us sign him or make it easier for him to hold out?

most likely jake will stay next year unless he retires. i don't expect him to be the unquestionable starter next year regardless of who is coach though with fox he has his best shot.

if moore tanks then we draft a QB as early as possible and go into camp with jake, mccown, new QB, and hunter. hopefully mccown will be the one in front going into camp in that scenario.

if moore is really good then we let mccown go, draft a QB early on day 2, and go in with moore as the starter....or keep all the QBs since we may have found our next starter. probably will draft one anyway.

if moore just does ok...better than jake but still not spectacular, we would probably draft a QB early and then have a totally open competition for QB.

regardless of what happens, i think hurney is going to be drafting a QB. if one isn't drafted then one will be picked up in free agency. there are a few intriguing options and hurney could very well go after one of them.

at any rate, with QB being such an abysmal failure this year, we could see 5 QBs in training camp fighting it out.

    • It's funny how the teams with the great QBs stay at or near the top of the league every season.  Yes it is a team game, but the QB has the biggest impact in most NFL football games. 
    • Look, no one is ever a perfect player.  Since the QB handles the ball on 100% of plays offensively (unless there's a direct snap to a RB or something), I can absolutely see where they get an outsized blame and gain from what happens at any given snap of a football game.   Theoretically, there shouldn't even be a stat or idea to a 4th quarter comeback or game winning drive because you should already have done that during the game.  Losers!  Right?  Just because you win late doesn't take away the fact you tried to lose the game for your team! I'm not a fan of that opinion, but again, I'm just a moron with a keyboard.   Bryce has limited tools.  Bryce has not inspired the same level of confidence in us as Cam Newton did in year 3.  I certainly get that.  We traded a TON of assets to get Bryce, and we still suck.  (I mean, since we've lost games, we're losers right?) I completely understand that some fans are just unhappy with a limited QB and a team that isn't performing well, unless the other teams are worse losers than we are. I will say this:  Bryce will fight until the end.  Sure, he's has some real loser football.   But in close games, he's doing his best to comeback (even against a winner of prevent D). Now is it better or worse if your QB plays their best ball in the first half and sucks 2nd half so long as they finish with 300 yards, 3 TDs for your fantasy points? Who said stats are for winners anyway?  The Panthers and Bryce has a long way to go.  I'm enjoying the winning right now.  Though I do start each game thinking "how will we fug this up today?" Because it's been such a poo show in the Tepper era.  Will he prove to be a legit starting NFL QB?  Maybe not here as evidence by our record with QBs who were high draft picks.  
    • Ive never liked the term game winning drives because they include games where the QB was part of or was the reason the team was behind in the first place. Ive been arguing against this stat since the Delhomme years. It should only count when the QB is out of the equation of reasons why the team fell behind in the first place and is at least half the reason why he led the last drive to give them a lead. It shouldnt count if they just hand it off most of the time and the RB is on fire and they go down and score a TD or FG.
