Joe Flacco 135.6

Peyton Manning 134.4

Matt Moore 123.2

Ben Roethlisberger 121.9

Matt Schaub 107.0

Matt is keeping some interesting company these days no?

Still a long way to go, still not completely convinced he is out long term starter.

That said, he did insure one thing last night, he will be on a NFL roster next season. Hopefully its ours.

It was definitely a good stage to perform on last night. And a good game for Panther fans. I was worried we would have another statistically okay performance but few points which is all that matters. But Moore made some great throws and receivers like Smith and Barnidge really helped him out. But that is the nature of a good team. They play well together and make each other better.

I agree with you Zod, I still think we need to begin acquiring QBs in the draft, but Moore played a hell of a game last night and has improved from week to week. Still not sold he's the long term answer, but last night was inspiring.

Same here.

I don't think we can for certain say that Moore is not the answer right now, though. For him to have a game like that against a top-tier defense and in his, what, sixth game as a starter? I'm eager to see what he can do in the remaining two games.

This is Moore's chance for a big payday. Finish season strong, then spend offeseason working hard on the Mid-Range passing accuracy and lots of study time learning how to read defenses. Come into training camp and take starting job, have good season and Cha Ching: $40 Million/5yr deal easy.

This is a playoff team, not in the playoffs thanks mostly to Jake and Fox refusing to bench him back in Sept.

It convinces me even more of what I said before... dump Jake, keep Moore, get an FA QB and draft a mid-round QB and let them compete for it. This way we have a starter a decent backup and a guy to learn the ropes/emergency QB.

What would we have to gain by ditching Jake when we will have to pay out the rest of his contract regardless?

In my mind, there are few better options as a backup quarterback for this team than Delhomme. He knows the team and the offense better than anyone and he obviously has chemistry with most of the players (even though you wouldn't think so at times this season).

I think these next two games will tell us if Moore is worth keeping. Even if we do keep Moore, I want to see us take a quarterback with our first pick.

I'm with you on this. Moore may very well be the answer. I'm curious to know what others are seeing that have them writing off Moore so quickly. Is it his lack of experience, or are people simply looking for the next Drew Brees?

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By cranky · Posted

      Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      That's why I say we have to keep looking. Even if you believe Bryce is the guy, KP and Grier are not and who knows if King is anything more than a gimmick player, we should be active in improving our 2nd QB spot. Season ending injuries happen, and you don't just want to roll over and give it up. How many starters have we seen come from the ranks of backup? Having 2 potential starting QBs is one of the best problems we could have.

      Eh, it’s more on how bad the refs are. Some of these calls against the canes are no calls
