DeAngleo Williams thinks Jake should remain starter

I really wish DeAngelo would have badmouthed Jake to appease posters on a message board, instead of maintaining a good relationship with one of his teammates (and perhaps, by extension, the team itself).

What the fug was the guy thinking?

trade him to oakland for jemarcus russell.

What are you talking about? Why is it so hard to fathom a teammate would speak highly of another teammate?

OP, you need to change the title of your post -- nowhere did DeAngelo advocate Jake starting.

That’s exactly what DeAngelo Insinuated... And it's the title of the blog/article/ whatever… come on dude read between the lines. I have nothing wrong with speaking highly of a teammate, but it was more than that.

Also I'm thinking what this does for Moore...

Jake is a great person, locker room presence... But the players also shouldn't praise Jake without giving Moore some type of props... unless they do not believe in him.

Whatever, it is what it is.

Jake does not deserve to be hung out to dry, I fully understand players defending Jake against the pissy fanbase. Williams is really laying it on thick though. He doesn't deserve any praise for what he's done, even in the past. The past is GONE. Jake played great from 03 to 05, he was an excellent player and a top 10-15 QB. Now he's very bad, quit giving him pity praise Williams!!!!!

DWill, some guy named Smith wants a private moment with you.

Maybe DWill is thinking, "gee if Jake starts, good chance Stew and I will rush for 1400 yards a piece next year".

I think he was way to "over the top" in praise for Jake, to the point it was a shot at Moore. Moore played very well and the team won games. Jake lost games for the team last year. Frankly if I'm Moore; I might start thinking "I hope I don't get tagged" and start planning my exit for charlotte.

    • Ok fair to judge only his starts.  But you do acknowledge that going from "he's waaaay above league average in a number of categories" to "here's a single stat where he's above league average (not "waaaay") and another where he is exactly at the league average" is a pretty significant backpedal, no?  I'm guessing he's probably in the ~10th range for completion percentage too if we're only looking at starts (I'm too lazy to isolate his starts and do the calculations), so I'll grant you that one too.  But I don't think completion percentage is all that meaningful as a standalone stat if it isn't bolstered by good TD%, Y/A, etc. On that note, for how much people like posting Passing Charts in here (*cough* CRA) - if you peep Shough's passing charts, he hasn't completed a single 20+ yard pass in the past 3 games combined.  His last one was in Week 13 against the Dolphins, which was a single pass of 24 yards.  I just want to be consistent in how we apply our standards - I think it's always been warranted to criticize Bryce for it (even dating back to his rookie season), but do we suddenly not care about that with Shough? And yeah I did acknowledge that Saints' fans have reason to be excited about him and complimented his poise, which is giving my props.  Still not sure I agree that he looks better than a "ton" of QBs nor do I think you or anyone have really demonstrated that.  I think you are generally one of the more reasonable level-headed posters which is why I'm confused at what I consider to be rather hyperbolic language about Shough.
    • I don't disagree with you, but want to point out that Tremble's strong suit has always been blocking. Case and point: on Horn's 25 yard run, he lays down not 1 but 2 nice blocks...and is looking for #3! https://www.panthers.com/video/jimmy-horn-jr-s-25-yard-run-gives-panthers-red-zone-access-on-first-drive
    • It is a popularity contest.  The selection does have meaning though. It is also 1 of the criteria that is considered for the HOF. The game does not have any significance. The team hasn't been to the playoffs in nearly a decade. That's why they don't get primetime national coverage. To the victors go the spoils.
