yes im a big fan of delhomme! and let me make this clear he played like total sh*t!!!! but watching the game we looked totally off rythm! do you think this was due to the bye? and another thing the play calling was terrible! why did we abandon the run so quickly?

Of course it did...John Fox watches General Hospital marathons and eat grilled cheese sandwitches all day during bye week..

Bye week = Trap game.

1)You haven't played football in two weeks. The other team just fought for their lives to advance.

2) It was the Arizona Cardinals. No one thought they were any good.

3) The Cards forced a very bad poker hand on you. Give them credit, but it was over.

In answer to the question? Yes. It killed you.

i'm tired of the panthers superstitions.....(no offense to the thread maker) if we can't win when all the hype is on us,or when backups step in,or when we have a bye then we don't deserve a playoff win,maybe not even a playoff berth
your absolutly right, a bye really is not a good excuse, but it seems after our bye we struggled against oakland, if they had a better offense they would have mopped the floors w/us. i mean the offense looked horrible, delhomme usually throws a couple ints...... but 5ints, our offense just looked confused and the timing was off. the game plan was poo. why we quit running confused me (az stopped our run last time.....but then we went wild cat and got it going)its almost like we didnt try. it is sad we left at least 9pts on the field due to stupid turnovers..........you do have to tip your hat to az they were missing a huge play maker in boldin and we were 100% i could only imagine how much worse that ass whippin would have been w/ boldin in the line up!

sorry this kinda turned into a rant

actually, the cards were the last team i wanted to see us play, we barely beat em last time. i did think this game would have been closer tho:( our d line and secondary were exposed in this game.

No Jake screwed you up. Dont worry you can still enjoy bogangles with your next spokesman.

i dont think it is a coincidence that jake has his 2 worst games after a bye. oakland and tonite. acually, i posted a thread saying i was worried about the bye, but it quickly sunk to the bottom page two to allow all of the "we gonna kick arizona's ass" threads...
i was a little worried cuz of the oakland game......but i thought we at least learned our lesson from that one......i was wrong:mad:

fox=delhomme is starter.

i havent given up on jake tho......but when he eventually leaves i hope moore will get a decent shot at starter, he did show some promise.

you cant blame fox for keeping him in, he has been a leader and has produced in postseason and clutch time, I just think Jakes window has passed.

delhomme has come back from terrible performances.......this one was real bad, it reminded me of his last nfc championship game. if he struggles next season they may cut ties w/delhomme but not likely fox is very loyal to his players.

    • 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.
