Hell YES.

#1 guy to develop....problem is Fox will be developing him in his first year. To think what Manning or Brady would look like under a run first team. Not trying to compare but fact is I don't think we will ever see Matts full 'passing' potential under Fox, or even if there is much there.

CHARLOTTE -- Matt Moore made it official on Friday, signing his contract tender and assuring his return for his fourth season with the Panthers.

Moore was a restricted free agent who had been tendered at the maximum level. Had he signed elsewhere and the Panthers not matched the contract, the team would have received first- and third-round selections in return.

General manager Marty Hurney said last week that Moore was the team's "No. 1" quarterback, which helped contribute to the decision to release Jake Delhomme, the team's starting quarterback for most of the last seven seasons.

"I think that's what really got us to this decision (to release Delhomme," Hurney said on March 5. "The more you talked about it, I think it was clear that Matt was going to go in as the guy and take the reps and try to develop him."

Moore is one of two Panthers quarterbacks under contract. Hunter Cantwell is the other, having signed his contract in December when the Panthers promoted him from the practice squad to the 53-man roster.

In addition to Delhomme, the team also parted ways with A.J. Feeley, who signed with the St. Louis Rams as an unrestricted free agent. Josh McCown is an unrestricted free agent; he was the No. 2 quarterback in Week 1 last season before suffering a knee injury and being placed on injured reserve.

Hey now...I know it hurts Hurney a lot to say he is now the new #1 but I never thought I would hear him say it...at least before he gets fired next year that is .

Now, with Moore aware of his value I think bringing in competition is a MUST, and I am not talking about Cantwell.

I think hes reacting to the fact that there have been threads about Moore signing the tender for awhile, therefore it's old news.
