"It definitely felt like the monkey off my back -- and it was a heavy one, too," Jarrett said. "I just kept believing in myself, because as a person, if you don't have that faith, you can get down on yourself."

Better than the score was the sideline scene that followed it. Jarrett turned into a politician, accepting a seemingly endless parade of handshakes and hugs from his teammates, who knew exactly what the precious score meant to him after three mostly frustrating seasons.

"It was the best feeling. We're a band of brothers here," Jarrett said. "We go through winning together, losing together, camp together. I think they knew how much it meant."

This was Jarrett's finest day as a professional. Even though he didn't start, he caught all five passes targeted to him, ringing up 68 yards in the process.

Sadly for Jarrett he isn't playing next week to show yesterday wasn't the exception rather than the rule.

I don't see enough to say whether that was his best game in a Panthers jersey so I'll ask the question; Was it?

Nice way of looking at it. I have noticed that Jarrett has caught everything that has been thrown at him but I dont see us keeping him. Remember Drew Carter? he put up a few 120+ yard games in his career and where is he now? not even starting for oakland.

Any chance that Jarrett like Moore is work in progress ergo worth hanging onto?

Personally, I think Jarrett's failure to catch on has more to do with the person that was throwing him the ball for the majority of the past 3 years than him. I'd like to keep him another year to see what he can do with a Qb that isn't afraid to throw the ball to someone not named Smith or Moose.

I say we keep him and see what he can do in the preseason. I want to see f what he did yesterday was what he'll do with a competent QB behind the wheel, or he just lucked out.

He really made some nice grabs today, though.

      Two Athletic articles about QBs

      By XClown1986 · Posted

      The successful teams in the NFL right now have one thing in common: Patience. Not just with their QB, but with every facet of the program. There are going to be successes and failures, but no one panics and makes reactive decisions. Look at the Eagles, the Bills, the Ravens, the Packers, and hell, even the (newly successful) Lions. All of them showed patience with their QB's growth, let their coaches do their jobs, have drafted well, developed their own players, and plugged holes in their roster and organization with players and situations that made sense. That's what we need. And if that isn't what we have now, we need to make moves to get it there. If that means they need to blow it up to start over, then blow it up and start it over the right way. If that means to change their approach from top to bottom, change it now. But the blueprint of success is out there in the league, teams just think they know better, or they don't have the discipline to follow through.

      X was drafted too early, needs refinement and is playing out of position. We knew this. What's the issue? Personally, I think he will be fine. Just needs more time.

      Rozeboom is a JAG. Shaq was most definitely not a JAG.
