Two moments that told me how much confidence the coaches had in Moore

1st half. When the Giants were going to punt the Panthers took a time out so they would have 1:31 left.

The other moment was the opening drive of the 2nd half. No way they run the same stuff with Jake the way they did with Matt.

Matt Moore is your starting qb next year. No need to worry about the draft.

Yes. I said don't worry about your draft.

Moore may start, but we still need to draft a young QB to groom.

I totally agree P. I think Matt will start, Jake will be back, along with McCown, and we pick up a project QB in the draft unless we hold out of for a golden goose of a veteran QB to pick up.

The way I see it, Moore keeps improving every game, along with the play calling based upon his ability. I think it was very limited with Jake.

We need Jake, and his veteran presence, but I don't want him starting unless and emergency arises. I'm hoping he'll be a good ole boy and restructure( uncapped year or not), just to show his allegiance to the organization. Even though I don't want him to start, I would really hate to see him just kicked to the curb. He has his value, but not as a starter anymore I hate to say.

As has been displayed by Swartz, and Bernadeau(sp on both), they have done an outstanding job to just be thrust out there with Gross, and Otah gone. That gives us depth at O-line for next year, and plenty of depth to return at D-line next year as well. I say that not knowing who is RFA/UFA/FA, etc, but if we can keep this corps together, our only need to address will be WR, and QB competition/future franchise QB..... ever how you wanna call it.

If Matt keep progressing, and we can keep what we have now, and improve in those areas.....I think we will be hard to deal with across the league.

Just to clarify.........I am not saying Moore is the answer, and I do hope we take, and attempt any chance we have at retaining a great QB of the future in case what have doesn't work out. We have ignored it for far to long.

We have 5 picks, and will be getting some supplemental picks(no more than 5th or 6th rounders I believe), and not sure yet how many of those.

Seeing as how WR and QB seem to be the most needed, we could really do something with those picks considering the depth we have on both sides of the ball.

Now I am saying this without researching who will walk UFA/FA/RFA etc as I said above......but I think we are sitting pretty good, and actually am already looking forward to next season with what we have.

God Bless The Panthers! :cheers2:

why are you guys talking about drafting another young QB to groom?

if Moore is the guy, he's the guy. You're not going to groom a 22 year old with a 25 year old.

you don't draft another rookie in case Moore doesn't pan out. You get rid of Jake and bring in someone like Mark Redman, or Chad Pennington, or Jon Kitna. Someone that's just there to collect a pay check and share wisdom.

At some point you have to poo or get off the pot with QBs here.

      You see, this is why I'm more critical of Dave Canales

      By mav1234 · Posted

      I don't know if Canales is any good as a head coach yet, but he has done well with our non-XL receivers. I personally think he is handicapped by a key personnel and that is partly out of his hands for the next couple weeks. He's also very young, so will absolutely have head scratchers and growing pains. But outside of Wilks he's probably already out best HC since Rivera, which isn't saying much, and imo his ceiling is unknown vs Wilks' which is unfortunately very well known.

      XL about to turn the corner

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      That's not what Bryce was pitched to be. Nor was the, what, 4th or 5th Tepper rebuild iteration? That's the problem with all this. You trade all this draft capital up to get these guys(Bryce, XL, etc) and then when they get their opportunities they can't hack it. As I have said many times, I view this as less of a development issue as I do an evaluation issue. We just suck at identifying talent correctly. It fails us all too often. If it was solely development, so many of these guys that left here after being failed draft picks would be studs. That is literally almost never the case.

      XL about to turn the corner

      By d-dave · Posted

      I remember the days when it would take WRs a few years to figure it out in the NFL...  What a time that was! Getting to the point of guys finding success else where after flopping here:  patience and a vision. Thanks to Tepper, we haven't been able to develop a vision.  Without patience, everything is a reaction. That's not to say sometimes you can tell when a fit it bad and people need to move on.  In XLs case, it's not going to hurt us to be patient.   Sure, fans see how Tmac is doing and are like "XL who??"  I get it, but I also think reacting for the sake of reacting isn't the best thing to do. Should XL get off social media for a bit and focus on the game?  Yes.  As Cam screamed "Lock in bro!"   I know being patient is hard when you see guys get off to fast starts in their careers.  Tepper can't really afford to be reactive right now.  He's got to let Dan and Dave have the time to build their team. Most of us are Panther fans.  We're the idiots here, year after year, hoping things have changed.  Most of us will continue to do so, and hope things turn around.  While some of us will balk at the salary cap, contracts and wasted years; it doesn't affect us personally since we're just fan. Now for those folks on the teams...yeah...they need to get it together before they lose their jobs and have to move!
