Hope they can get some pratice outside..

Matt Moore will start Sunday's game against the Bucs, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

This is the worst kept secret in football. Jake Delhomme is dealing with a broken middle finger on his throwing hand and may have been benched anyway, but coach John Fox was trying to maintain a "competitive advantage" by keeping his starter a secret. Moore is worth an add in two-QB leagues but we don't expect him to be much of an upgrade over Delhomme

Do you think fox will let him?

Panthers WR Muhsin Muhammad said that Matt Moore has a "knack (for) throwing the deep ball."

Moore has only made three career starts and none since 2007, so it will be interesting to see if he can jumpstart the Panthers' passing game. We doubt he'll be able to help Steve Smith and the rest of the receivers too much, but it can't get much worse.

yep.....I think he will give him a tiny more room than in 07....and he let him throw in 07. I think the real offense will come showup this week....Smitty has been beating guys for some homeruns this year.....I think we see one Sunday.

Well...Moore with a knack for throwing the deep ball at least is an improvement over Jake. Jake throws pick-6s because the defender only has to run a short distance to their goalline. This might give our offense more time to tackle the interceptor....if that's what happens.

well, Moore might throw a good deep ball.....but if they continue to run this deep vertical routes to Moose it won't matter how good the throw is.....Moose can't run it and they always go to it....

I don't care so much about him completing deep passes as I do the line getting out there and busting their "ever loving" ass to protect him.

It's going to cause everyone to start with the "I told you so" bullshit if Matt is on his back all day, and can't get the job done, and all the while, Fox will once again come out smelling like rose panties.

well, the QB can bring that on himself and end it to some small degree......Jake couldn't throw the ball and teams wanted toss up balls. Plus, Moore is more mobile.....the OL hasn't been great...but Jake had a role in all of it.

The good thing about moore is that he can run.The bad thing is thats not the type of QB fox likes.lol

      Dan had a great draft

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By 45catfan · Posted

      I just saw the funniest thing...or very disappointing, depending how you handle misery. A guy on YouTube did a 2027 'way too early' mock draft.  If I told you the simulator has the Panthers selecting in the top 10 , what would you say?  If I told you it was pick #8 and only two QBs were taken in the top 7, what would you say?  If I told you this dude had us taking a defensive player, what would you say?

      A look at the team after the draft and udfa signings...

      It is due diligence at that point. Irresponsible not to take him.  Crossing my fingers on this one, he has everything you look for except experience.
