Will we not know the QB situ until the draft or...

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!

    • Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field. 
    • At least we don't need to hear overreacting about towels ...
    • Actually there is, try being a Charlotte Hornets fan. I mean the team fuging moved at its peak and hasn't recovered since and that was 25 years ago
