I've been a diehard Jake fan this entire season...

but how is there any debate over who should start next year? Unless John Fox is retarded or enjoys f*cking with the Carolinas, Matt Moore will go into training camp taking the snaps with the first offense. I don't think we should be worried. Is there any single person who thinks that Jake should be the starter? Or that we should trade Peppers or JStew for a first rounder to draft a QB? If so, show yourself.

Is there any doubt who should be the backup? Jake is perfect for it. When you have a young starter you want an experienced veteran backup, because most of what he is there for is to coach the young guy. Apparently, Moore has blossomed from his two years spent on the bench behind Jake. When we saw him as a rookie, I would be generous to call him mediocre. And, if need be, I think Jake will be much better coming off the bench than this past year as a starter. Let's not run him off for this sh*tstorm of a season. He just needs a different role. A backup role.

When we saw him as a rookie, he was named Rookie of the Month for December.

Far from mediocre.

In those three games in 2007

Completion % - 56.8

TD/INT - 3/5

QB Rating - 67 (mediocre at best)

2009

Completion % - 61.6

TD/INT - 8/2

QB Rating - 98.5 (worthy of taking the starting job)

I don't know what his competition was when he won ROTM, but apparently

mediocre was good enough

If Moore wants to be the starter then all he has to do is pick up in the preseason where he left off this year. Plus work extra hard in practice and in the film room to improve his weaknesses.

Like for example he completes 55% of his passes 1-10 attempts. Then 72% of his passes 11-20 attempts. In other words he seems to start slowly. He also hits just above half of his passes to the left side (52%) but completes almost 68% to the right side. Both his interceptions came from the left side, none from the right. He throws better to the flats and post routes than he does to the sidelines. This takes nothing away from him just ways to improve his skills.

If he does those things he will be the starter. But after a good 2007, he regressed in 08. I personally hope he comes out in OTAs and training camp and tears it up which will settle the issue. Honestly even if Jake is back here it won't likely be beyond next year. So we still need to find 2 or 3 guys capable of starting for us.

For a good look at his game stats and splits here is a decent site:

      Bryce’s new look. He looks like a grown up

      By bandu · Posted

      take a  look around the league at other young Qb's such as Drake Maye , Jayden Daniels, Bo Nix , CJ Stroud  & Caleb Williams who at the time like Bryce Young they also were drafted by teams with a losing record .the only difference with these Qb's is after joining their teams with a losing record they led those same teams to a winning record in a very short period of time .it's simply what you call a game changer & or elite Qb's & then take a  look at  the other side of the coin you have Qb's such as Trey Lance, Zach Wilson, Mac Jones, Justin Fields  & Anthony Richardson also like Bryce Young all first round picks who instead of winning either did not play or led their teams to a losing record while playing  Bryce Young who has an overall record of 14-30 & wildly inconsistent & never in the history of the NFL has a Qb 5'10" or shorter had a successful carrer as Qb in the NFL  if anything history is telling you exactly what ?..just saying

      to me these two signings were so bad for the Panthers at the time of our young team. "Sean Gilbert was signed by the Carolina Panthers on April 21, 1998, after being traded from the Washington Redskins in a deal that sent the Panthers two first-round picks (Nos. 5 and 12) to Washington. The Panthers then re-signed Gilbert to a 7-year, $46.5 million contract extension on the same date"  The other was Jason Peters being picked in the First round of the 1998 draft. "Peter played for the Panthers from 1998 to 2001, appearing in 38 games (starting 20) and recording 88 total tackles, 7.5 sacks, and 1 fumble recovery His NFL career was cut short by a chronic neck stinger, forcing him to retire after the 2001 season
