Espn... I mean Pat Yasinskas has an article about Donavan Mcnabb possibly coming to Carolina.

http://espn.go.com/blog/nfcsouth/post/_/id/8280/nfc-south-mailbag-2

Thoughts?

Personally I would love to see Mcnabb, Moore, and Delhomme battle it out for the starting position.

A real QB competition? could be fun to watch.

It's hardly what I'd call "an article about Donavan Mcnabb possibly coming to Carolina."

It's an answer to a mailbag question from a fan, and Yasinskas' take is that while he'd be in favor of it personally, there's little to no chance of it happening.

Pat Yasinskas: Despite all the rumors about McNabb, I’m not sure the Eagles will really part ways with him. The guy’s had an incredible career, far better than a lot of Philadelphia fans give him credit for. If the Panthers tag Peppers and the Eagles made McNabb available in a trade, I think that’s something the Panthers would have to consider. But it’s sounding more and more like the Panthers just might let Peppers walk. If that happens, I don’t know that will instantly free up $20 million. I think the Panthers, like a lot of teams, are going to be conservative this year because of the labor situation. Still, somehow, I’d like to see them get a quality quarterback. I think Matt Moore is an option, but he certainly isn’t a sure thing. John Fox needs a sure thing at quarterback.

I wonder who played better in the last 5 games of the season...McNabb or Moore?

Just kidding, I don't actually wonder that because I already know the answer.

Absolutely no reason to spend what it would take to get McNabb when Moore is everything we need in a QB. Pick up a proven back-up like Tyler Thigpen and/or draft a promising rookie QB in the middle rounds for development. Moore starts and Delhomme hangs around another year in case Moore gets hurt/flops.

They made it seem like that when the article on the main nfl page of espn has a big picture of Mcnabb and the description. Flying South?Is Donovan McNabb a possibility for Carolina, which lacks a sure thing at QB? Maybe, but a lot has to happen before the Panthers would consider such a move.

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion in Here)

      By CRA · Posted

      PJ's completion % was 63% when starting games in Carolina.  Which I believe is better than Bryce when starting.  And again, 4-3 as the starter here and the LONE QB Carolina has been able to actually win with in the Tepper era.  If you ask a gambling gunslinger to come into blowouts.....they are going to go down in a blaze of glory.  Which he would do.  Yeah, he isn't good.  And gunslingers are supposed to have rockier stats than checkdown QBs.   So....why does PJ Walker have a better comp % as a starter than Bryce Young.  And for every knock you want to make about PJ, you can find something or a skillset that PJ does better than Bryce.   I didn't say PJ had good field vision.  He doesn't.  Tell me about Bryce after he comes off the first read lol.  Let me repeat, PJ Walker is not a good QB.  He is NFL depth and an in house arm.  Bryce Young doesn't belong in a convo w/ Jake and Cam.  He belongs closer in a convo with the backup caliber QBs Carolina was forced into playing.  Which isn't just PJ Walker.  But Kyle Allen.  Moore.  Guys like that.

      Vet QB Options - Trade/Cut/FA Edition

      Oh I see what you meant by memory. I will trust my memory, I have looked a a lot of those ball charts for Bryce and they trend a general pattern. They thing that has changed that I have noticed more recently is the reduction in the bunching of behind or at  the LOS passes over to his right.  Aside from the quantity of throws recently since the running game has become a more dominant factor.

      Yes but you basically said you are going from a quick skim of those charts without doing the same for Bryce and/or Andy. So you are going memory vs. snapshots. That's not going to be a very comprehensive analysis.
