"I’ve never thought that they didn’t think highly of me," said Moore.

They didn't, or more accurately, John Fox didn't.

Sorry Matt. You are a bit laid back for Fox's taste. Fox likes his QB's fiery and all pumped up in practice, yelling and pointing and slapping the asses of the other players. Sure they may throw 7 picks in an actual game, but damn if they are not fiery. THEY are football players.

Sorry Matt. You and your laid back in practice, not yelling or slapping asses, "all I do is win games" attitude wont make you any friends on Fox's staff. Thank god Hurney knows Richardson would fire his ass on the spot if another team picked you up and you won elsewhere.

Hopefully you can ride out this season until the Panthers hire a head coach that actually believes in you.

organizationally it's pretty apparent that moore is thought highly of.

fox is the big question. most of us know how fox has been viewing moore and the reasoning for it. can fox put aside his feelings about what a "football player" looks like and acts like and can moore pick it up enough to meet fox half way?

i'm thinking moore will do his part to act the part without giving up too much of himself.

i'm only counting on fox being coerced into making moore the starter.

I don't think Fox is that retarded. Sure, he's made mistakes and he will still make mistakes, but it's not that easy to become an NFL coach; not every idiot can make it.

you can be successful and narrow minded. fox was successful enough to land an NFL HC job and keep it for 8 years but that doesn't change his being narrow minded.

he doesn't think that moore is a prototypical NFL player or QB. moore doesn't act like he things a real QB should and that is why he has been so down on moore.

Yeah. Why would a coach want his player to actually learn the play book. It is ridiculous that Fox would want his leader in the locker room to stick around after weighlighting and off-season conditioning rather than bolt out the door early. Fox is crazy to expect his quarterback to watch film and actually help with gameplanning for the opponent. This whole lead by example BS is way overrated, right?

Bottom line is Moore gave very little reason to believe he could run the team successfully outside of a short stint in 2007. Then he immediately regresses in 2008 and had a poor preseason in 2009. I am sure it is Fox's fault that Moore was reported by several folks in the know to be so laid back that he didn't put in the work every day.

After Moore shows he can win some games and play, they tender him with a 1st and third assuring he would be here. They also raise his salary from 400,000 to over 3,000,000 with the move. Yeah it really shows the organization doesn't value him or think he can do the job. Maybe if he actually works hard this year and shows up like a leader in the locker room, they might reward him again with a long term contract.

Yeah it is all Fox's fault, and Moore's attitude and behavior had nothing to do with it.

      This is gonna piss some of yall off

      I was going to joke and have the Chiefs throw in 2 first rounders..... But as soon as the Mahomes/Bryce trade comes through we need to hit accept and have Mahomes on the very first flight out here; no negotiation needed lol.

      Is Tua our next QB?

      By ProcessBlue2 · Posted

      It will be interesting this year to see if spending time with some of the best QBs and play callers in the league changed Wentz at all. I really think Mills is starter material. He wasn’t awful despite being apart of two dumpster fire seasons before Demeco got there. Plus he would have zero issues seeing over the line.

      Cam on First take today, his comments on Smith’s fan statements

      By PantherBoy95 · Posted

      I feel like for once every one of those guys held back. And I think there is a 5'9 100% attitude guy that they're almost hesitant to speak out against. This is the fact of the matter, it's sports. When you win, fans cheer. When you lose, fans boo. Especially consistently year after year with no end in sight. Instead of just talking about us being the Bible belt maybe talk about how we've never once in the franchise history had back to back winning seasons. We love the team, we loved and celebrated Cam and Steve, and even guys like Jake that we love not just because of talent but because of his spirit as the face of the team. But they all won.  Fans pay a lot of money on gear, and on these overpriced tickets to go out and see a horrible product. I've slowed down on watching games because I realized I was spending 4 hours of my day getting annoyed watching a consistently bad product. Outside of a few hopeful games at the end of last year Panthers football hasn't even been enjoyable to watch. When I flip the channel to a Ravens/Eagles game it almost feels like I'm watching a different sport.  I wouldn't just focus so much attention on the city, I'd ask based on the results are they justified.
