maybe even mid-camp?

panthers.com is trying to cover it it up with their new article 'QB review' article that's CRAP imo, and just a waste of a read.

Reading between the lines and remembering Fox is staying makes me think the panthers still don't know who to start which is really starting to freak me out...every day it seems most more likely Jake will be back.

Well I assume if we use our very first pick in the draft on a QB instead of a WR we aren't looking Jake's way...so camp or not I think that will tell us. Although that still leaves us with Fox, Jake and Matt.

so if one of those two is to start should that not be released soon?

or are we going to make both QBs think teh panthers have no confidence in them until gametime?

Why would we know before training camp or preseason. Isn't the purpose of the preseason to establish the starters? One of things people always complain about is that there isn't any competition in training camp and people are just giving the starters roles whether they deserve it or not. Now when that is what Fox wants to do, people whine and complain because Moore hasn't been named the starter 6 months before hand.

Answer this question? Do you think players try harder and work more when they are in a competition for their jobs or when they are handed the role no matter how they perform?

Anyone think Godfrey coming back and playing so much better was because Martin did so well when he was substituting for Godfrey.

If you think about it for anytime you will clearly see that competition should happen across the board at all positions every year.

With this being Fox's last year expect everyone to be fighting for a job and the competition to be intense this summer.

What 55 said. And I'm pretty sure that Panthers.com isn't trying to cover anything up.

Totally agree. Expecting Panthers.com to say anything negative about the team is ridiculous. It is the team's website and the articles and material are going to be skewed postively toward the team. That is the point. I expect their motto is if you can't say anything nice, you say nothing at all.

Knowing Fox it will be a "game time decision".....

Haha true... Thats one thing I wish would change about Carolina... as a fan you never know whats going on with the team, you never hear about them on espn or anything. It will be awhile before you know who's the starter... Moore deserves it but it could be Delhomme... who knows but I'm thinking Moore will start.

For us to even think Delhomme has a shot at starting again because we haven't declared Moore the starter yet just shows how much of a joke Fox is to still contemplate starting a guy who was the worst starting QB last season or Moore who completely blew him out of the water.

First of all, let's hope all get threu the preseason healthy! If Moore insn't hurt in that, he's GOTTA start! I can't imagine Jerry R. not getting involved if that doesn't happen. Jerry R. is 'getting up there' in years. I'm sure he wants to exit with a ring. I don't think Jake provides that chance anymore as a starter. If Jake is Moore's backup, I think that can work. But what an expensive backup he would be!

      Moton extension. 2 more years, $44M

      By mrcompletely11 · Posted

      fuging Christ dude this isnt hard.  Like at all.  I get you simping for this poo team is your thing but sometimes you have to look at reality.   Even removing his bum knee from the equation, none of this made sense.  He is 31.  He has been paid handsomely for his service here.  He was currently under contract for this season.  Why in the holy fug did anything have to be done 2 weeks before the season started.   The people for this move, in this thread are saying A) He deserved it (this is the nfl it doesnt work like that  B) It frees up cap space (then why in the fug didnt we do this in Feb or C) You logic (We are getting a deal at 53 million guaranteed for the next 3 years.   You realize with this deal we cannot cut or trade his ass for 3 years.  You understand this right?   So in my opinion we should have let this ride into the offseason and go from there, what he is going to threaten to walk, big fuging deal he would be 32 on a chronically bad knee, what other moronic franchise is going to give him 40 million up front?  It wasnt going to happen.   And you are acting like its impossible to replace a 32 year old RT with a bum knee.  Just go and draft someone, move Icky to RT.  There are tons of options instead of extending this dude 2 weeks before the fuging season.  The truth is Morgan and the shitheads in the FO fell for this dudes crying act and got all sentimental and shelled out another ext.  We are a poverty ass franchise that doesnt act professionally

      5 Im glad football is back but after the embarrassment that was the browns pre season game where our starting D made Sanders look like a serviceable NFL QB, I lost hope again for a successful Panthers campaign this year.  I do hope I’m wrong!
