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.

      Panthers coverage efficiency

      By NAS · Posted

      Call me crazy but if you’re in the bottom 7 in efficiency using Zone 84% of the time why not try something else? You paid Jaycee top 5 CB money use him more effectively. Zone is only efficient if you can generate a good pass rush to force a QB into mistakes otherwise you will get picked apart

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      Good Lord this board has become a cesspool of negativity and where fandom becomes something twisted and unrecognizable.

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Yeah, I could jump right into the unbelievable Bryce debate now that some people are trying to flip the script because Bryce Young has, at most, a handful of decent games as a pro, but that's going to work itself out. Suffice it to say that I've seen better QBs (with an s) in a Panthers uniform, and I've certainly seen better QBs be drafted while we're playing around with Bryce, one of them who beat the crap out of us already this season... Let's forget about Bryce (and his markedly underwhelming play since he's been here); I think that most sane fans will agree that drafting him was an error, but it happens. Sure, it doesn't happen to the tune of King's ransom---including your main receiver---but it happens. You bet, you lose. Speaking of receivers...and betting and losing... Oh, man, we drafted Xavier Legette. Yes, just like with Bryce, I've entered "the dark side." Some Huddlers were telling us from the beginning, and they were right. But, I'm not apologizing for waiting to see what a guy's got before making my decision on him. X was a one-year wonder at South Carolina who parlayed some really nice production that season, a great personality and thick country accent, into becoming a first round pick (but only in Carolina). For Dan Morgan and company, He was a big swing that has turned into a big whiff (and I can still feel the ill breeze from that one). Sh¡t happens, right? Well, not so fast. Ladd McConkey was the decidedly more polished receiver who was literally ready to hit the ground running as soon as stepping onto the field as a pro. Ladd was never the biggest guy (though not the smallest), but he was the guy that could run routes, always seemed to get open---no question---and had the same speed as X, but with legit quickness and nuanced shake and bake. But Dan chose the project. He chose the guy where the game speed looks more like a tractor trailer than a 5.0 mustang. Look, I've supported X (just like Bryce) many many a day, but no more. Now I'm not saying that I won't root for the guy. Just like with Bryce, he seems like a great kid. But as far as giving excuses for the kid, and, perhaps more importantly, waiting for some miraculous breakout, I'm done with that. I've seen enough. You don't draft a project for a project. And yes, Bryce had proven to be a project after his first season. In my mind, drafting a supposedly number one receiver that needs lots of development for a starting quarterback that needs immediate help to try and further his development is not going to lead to good things. Pick the surest guy. Or at least pick the one who appears to be the surest guy, because picking can be tricky... especially when you're too busy tricking yourself.
