Jake is still the man....

Yeah, he had the shittiest game that he has ever had. Yes, I felt physically sick after the 5th interception. But he is still my guy.

Some of you have sworn him off. Others have burned his jersey in a wheel barrow ( dude, for real...). Not me. When I got home, i took my jersey off off, shook my head, and hung it up. I haven't forgotten what all number 17 has done for us. I'm not going to bail on him now.

If you feel the same way I do, post away. If you hate the guy and wanna see him gone, please post in the numerous other threads about how awful he is.

GO JAKE GO!

I'm more mad at the coaching staff abandoning the running game than Jake to be honest. They should have realized after an INT or two that he wasn't on his game, and that adjustments needed to be made. Instead, they kept forcing it when it wasn't there.

Agreed, and until we have someone better than Jake, he'll continue to start.

Although 12-4 did suck.

It was a pleasure meeting you in person.... I use to be a staunch #17 supporter but unless he brings a Lombardi to the city of Charlotte then what he did yesterday goes down as one of the biggest failures in Charlotte sports history. He had at his disposal one of the best running games in the league, an all world WR, a capable #2 WR all of these weapons and he still managed 5 picks and one fumble. I have seen great QB's do way more with much less, yesterday's loss was solely on him and the failure of this season was solely on him.

Jake was being Jake! When things go right for the Panthers he is very good. When the other team has a plan to take away the strengths of the Panthers then Jake cannot handle it, gets into panic mode and starts forcing passes that should never be thrown. It has happened before and will happen again. Its the John Fox way therefore it is Jakes way.

I love Jake and always will, but it is time to AT LEAST bring in someone who can compete with him for the starting spot and who will be ready to step in when Jake is done. I mean, Jake could decide to retire tomorrow. What happens then? We need to prepare for the future, whether the future is next year or the year after.

I dont mind Jake coming back, I just dont want Fox and company any more. They called those passing plays instead of running the ball and they played the stupid soft zone on the best passing team in the playoffs. I dont blame Jake near as much as I blame Fuzzy Fox and Co.

Heres the deal. Everyone is saying yeah, Jake played a sh*tty game, but he will bounce back. Sure he will, he will have some good games. The problem is, he throws out crap like this way to often. Remember Oakland? The exact same thing. Detroit? Didn't turn it over as much but just look shaky the whole game. The first Tampa game? Chicago? Minny? He has thrown a couple of stinkers this year and he threw another one at the wrong time.

And it's not just the INT's into double coverage, he cannot manage the game when he gets rustled up. Hurry the offense to the line with 5 secs in the third, the delay of game, he doesn't watch the clock. He writes checks his arm can't cash. When you look at a team that wants to control with the run game, the best ones have a mistake free QB and the best example of that is the Ravens.

Jake is a great guy, but I think it's time to look at another option. I'm not saying cut him, but I'm tired of Fox putting the game in his hands. When he makes one mistake, he can't get over it. You can't do that in the NFL.

    • Derrick Brown was one player I never called or even suggested was a bust . Dude was young and hadn't even hit his stride. It takes time to learn the position. The thing I appreciated about him is that he kept improving season after season. He got paid and keeps on going like the Energizer Bunny.
    • How many teams coddle their QB the way Bryce has been coddled? I have never seen any other team in the NFL EVER baby a QB the way that Bryce has been.  Bryce was named day 1 starter his first year. It was obvious he didnt deserve it. He wasnt ready as evidenced by the worst rookie year in NFL history.  So let's move to year 2. He's named starter again with no competition in TC and is benched 2 games later. We have the ghost of a backup in Dalton who is so bad he can only beat Vegas and let's remember, the only reason he lost his starting job was a car accident, not because Bryce actually beat him out in practice.  And year 3. We sign Dalton again, who already proved he couldn't be depended on to put an even remotely passable performance on the field, and bring back Jack Plummer, who was even worse than last year. It was obvious he was nothing more than a pretend body in an attempt to create an illusion of some type of attempt to find a backup.  Then we start again with garbage play again and Bryce gets benched with a phantom injury, and the ghost of the ghost of Dalton breaks his thumb on the first drive and craps the field all over again. If we had actually made an attempt to find a legitimate QB2, it's possible Bryce doesn't step on the field again. Bryce is not agood QB and if we had any other mediocre QB, our record would be the same or better.  Bryce is not entrenched. He's been placed, protected and sheltered from ever having to face a  real QB competition in TC. Richardson and Levis both were ass and both were benched and eventually replaced.  Do I expect Baker to face competition in camp? Sure. I expect Tampa to find the best QB2 they can at price that fits their cap and resources and system and get him up to speed. If he's better than Baker, and if he's better by a significant margin, that's best for the team. The ultimate goal is a Super Bowl. Bellichek was constantly getting QB2s with the GOAT as his starter. He knew the value and that was realized when Cassell led them to an 11-5 record as a backup.  You and I may think differently than the people that matter but I will say it again. If you're afraid to bring in a capable backup, especially after the debacle of last year. The starting role wasn't earned, it was given, and that's loser mentality.
    • I would have done the same thing.  LSU is a much better job than Ole Miss.  Plus the enormous contract and every advantage a college team can offer in terms of recruiting and facilities and tradition etc
