I Told You So!

You people laughed and made fun of me earlier in the season when I said Matt Moore was more than capable of being our starting QB and look what he did last night. I'm not saying he's the next Brady or Manning but he is a lot better than Jake and Feeley. I hate saying could've, would've, should've but if Fox had listend to me back around week 3 this team would be fighting for a wildcard spot in the playoffs but instead we are on the outside looking in.

Oh well maybe next year we will go back to being the Panthers of 2008.

That's pretty cool you know Fox and make suggestions to him. Sucks he did not listen.

i'd prefer us not to look like 2008..because delhomme would be starting..2010 here we come..

By being the Panthers of 2008 I mean winning games and beating the snot out of teams with our running game. I honestly think we would have gone to the Super Bowl last year if our QB didn't go color blind in the playoffs.

I would love for you and Jake Delhomme 17 to have an all out thread/cage fight

Ha ha!! :lol:

And told you so? Last I check, many weren't bashing like you want to believe. Some of us just prefer to wait & see how he does first. With how promising he has look lately, he might be what we need for the future. :thumbsup:

Matt is no better than Jake, period...they are both mediocre. Both of them have noodle arms where Smitty/Barnidge bailed out Moore for what could have been 3 picks. What HAS happened since Matt's "new" is the play calling has been better where more high percentage throws are being called now. His accuracy outside of 10-15 yards is suspect. I'll admit, he can throw a five-yard hitch very well. Moore tends to over-throw the TEs and under-throws the WRs. Passes over 30-yards look like helium ballons because they hang in the air so long.

Matt is a good back up, but that's all he'll ever really be. Our starter for 2010 is not on our roster now. If so, it's going to be a long year.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      LWOS on the FO's error--my word--on X...traits, timelines, Brazzell, & indications of improvement.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
