If this is the end for Jake...

...this is a sad way for him to go out. Fact is, he's done a lot of good here.

2003 & 2005 were great years, even though it fell apart in Seattle.

I guess I'm not as "ANGRY" as most of you all, because after the interception at 14-7 on the goal line, the game was as good as over with the way Arizona was moving the ball, especially after the Fitzgerald catch lit a fuse in them because the two Panthers were too STUPID to knock the ball away him after he bobbled it, so I found something else to do.

By the time I turned it back for an update, it was 27-7, so poof, good-bye for good football game.

Didn't see most of the debacle, but Jake had a decent career here, and did good coming off of the surgery.

He began his time with the Panthers as a hero after Rodney Pete came out, began it this season as a hero in San Diego, and then have it end with a game that was out of character for him for the playoffs?

I mean you have to feel for the guy, some. :leaving:

fug 'em. It's his job to succeed and he didn't. If we help pay him (buying tickets, merch., etc.) for a service and he fails, we have every right to want his head. I feel for him having it happen on his birthday, but I've wanted him gone for far too long now to feel bad that this happened to him.

I bet we don't even replace him or draft for a replacement... That's the part I'm going to be mad about.

I agree.. and a few others will also come around.. things are pretty tense right now, give it time. I say give the guy another chance... he shouldn't be defined, or judged, based on one horrible... hooooorrriiibbbllle game performance... the best quarterbacks have had worse games... lets see how he takes the loss.. and what he does in the off season... if he wants a job with this team next year.. he better work his cajun ass off for it

he's 34, he's not getting any better. no one asked him to go out and win the game for us. we just needed him to give us a chance. but i guess when your defense can't stop anyone the qb has to go out and try to win the game.

then again, if you'd stop turning the ball over, maybe the defense could stop someone.

    • I want the following: LB - Devin Lloyd (our big money splash) I'm also interested in Nakobe Dean if we go the cheaper route. His size is a concern beside Wallace, but Dean is a Dan Morgan type of alpha leader of the defense. He's often called the heart of the Philly defense and would absolutely bring a swagger and be our field general on defense. We need this so badly and I'd almost rather go with him because Wallace is no guarantee to ever hit his potential, so maybe we go with Dean and find a Wallace replacement in on day 2. EDGE - Boye Mafe (SEA) I think he's a great blend of pass rush prowess, age and experience. We have our potential youngsters in Scourton and Umanmielen, let's add a vet from a successful franchise to bring some heat. Bye bye Wonnum....bye bye Jones. We roll with Mafe-Scourton-Umanmielen TE - Cade Otton (TB) Again, we have youth in this position w/ Sanders and Evans. Sanders is tracking similarly to Ian Thomas (age/stats) and wonder if he will ever be the TE we thought we stole in the 4th round. Evans looks legit, but more of a balanced/blocker. Sign Otton, who Dave is familiar with and save some money by cutting Tremble. Also allows us to roll Otton-Sanders-Evans in 13 personnel WR - Wan'dale Robinson or Rashid Shaheed I wonder if either of these will be priced out of our range based on age and what they bring. We do already have a 5'8" WR with Horn, Jr. so I'd see the argument against Robinson. However, the latter is still only 25 and just hit a 1k yard receiving season with suspect QB play in NY and an elite talent in Nabers on the roster. SEA gave up two '26 draft picks for Shaheed and he has stepped in nicely for the 'Hawks...doubt they let him walk. I also saw Doubs on the FA list and wonder if he'd be what we need. We need a separator that can be a deep threat to keep defenses honest. TMac/Coker are the bigger receivers, but not necesarily guys that scare a defense....would Doubs be that guy? SAF I'd like an upgrade here and wonder if we wait out the FA period until the latter stages if someone like Ar'Darious Washington or Jaylinn Hawkins lingers and there's a discount later in the game. Nick Scott can F off and I hope he never suits up for us again.   
    • I just can’t see Morgan as being under the threat of unemployment at any time this upcoming season.  As little as ‘winning’ the division and making the playoffs impressed me, I think to Tepper it was like nectar of the Gods. A milestone for him. And the team did play well in the Wild Card. That has to buy him 2027. I would think. Unless we start 0-8 or something. Which I don’t believe will happen. 
    • I'm not arguing that Linderbaum isn't a better player than Mays, just that the difference isn't as much as people might think. At least not compared to the difference in cost between the two players will be. In any event, I don't expect the Ravens to let him get to the open market.
