You should self bant yourself if you didn't see the Jake cut coming. Shamwow

I mean are we that blind to not have seen this coming? It was as obvious as Kristie Alley's thighs after a bender at Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles.

Love Jake like family but he was a crushed confidence avalanche that was taking women and children with him on the way down the mountain.

He has given us some great years and memories. But so did Taco Bell after many drug induced evenings. I grew up and moved over to some new menus.

If you didn't see this coming please go to youtube or NFL.com and just hang around some Jake videos. Grab some doritos and a yoohoo and pay attention to seeing a crash test dummy try and throw to the back shoulder in quadruple coverage and then after wiping the crumbs from your eyes come back and tell us all why he should have stayed.

Has watching the Amazing Race and American Idol or Tool Academy snapped our objectivity like a twig so bad that we were optimistic Jake could keep Matt Moore at bay??

like any retarded concept such as the idea that we were better off keeping delhomme, someone on the carolinahuddle is guaranteed to try to rationalize it.

easy on the doritos and yoohoo, though. it's late and we wouldn't want a lot of people mixing too much nacho cheese and chocolate

I will be interesting to hear why they cut him. it didn't save any money and we have to pay someone to take his place so it will actually cost more this way. They also could have waited to see how he played in camp to make the decision. I suspect that he was let go early so he had a chance to sign with another team and because there were still players loyal to him like Williams and they wanted to establish Moore as the unquestioned quarterback.

But it surely wasn't clear that he would be cut. Look how many folks were deathly frightened Fox would name him the starter this year.

This offseason may be the most interesting in years.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
