What am i missing about moore?

The biggest thing with Moore is that he's never had to be THE GUY when there was anything on the line. When he came in at the end of 2007 and 2009, we were already eliminated from the playoffs. There was absolutely no pressure on him. And I think that fit in with his lackadaisical persona. Could he mimic his play when there's nothing riding on how well he plays at the START of a season, when he IS that guy? I don't know.

Clearly neither does John Fox.

Look i know we go by bpa BUT what am i missing about moore he did beat good playoff teams last year he did torch the giants and vikings right?

HE SHOULD BE HE FUTURE

You do realize that the Giants were an absolute train wreck at the end of the season. I like the Minn game, but they were sttruggling for the three games around our game.

Moore showed some good things in limited play. However, he is not a seasoned vet and has not proven that he is the future franchise QB.

Clausen was just too good of a player and value to pass up. It was not even a close call to make.

Why wouldn't we want 2 starting quality quarterbacks. I guess it has been so long long since we had more one that decent guy at a time that we can't handle having a bunch of them. Seems to me that we have finally gotten what we wanted.

Moore is going to be the starter although I can imagine he isn't sleeping too well tonight.

It was Clear last year John Fox was not gonna give Moore the chance to save the season ether. Delhomme was allowed to ruin it when it was clear he was done.

I won't argue that Fox was too loyal to Jake.

But he barely knows Clausen, and he was trying to trade our first next year to get him. What does that say about Moore in general?

that's he's on a one year RFA contract?

The better question is what dose that say about Fox in general. Moore has numbers to back up his argument.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
