Gazette say's "Moore Starts"

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

Barring an injury or a "mental meltdown of Jake Delhomme proportions," Matt Moore is expected to open the season as the Panthers' starting quarterback.

There's no open competition for the starting job. The real race to watch is the primary backup spot after Hunter Cantwell held off Jimmy Clausen throughout spring practices. Though we do expect Clausen to open the season second on the depth chart, it's no longer a foregone conclusion.

I don't think that is much of a prediction at all. Moore is the starter. It would take some major for Clausen to start. An injure or HUGE meltdown is the only way Clausen starts. No one should want Clausen to start. The ideal path is the Aaron Rodgers path to a starting gig.

wow

enlightened I am

never saw it coming

Moore(Jarrett) is the starter until Clausen(LaFell) can knock him off. Way to go out on a limb.

I feel Matt Moore naturally will start and it is possible that Cantwell is # 2 until Clausen has a little more time to develop.

True-So True

I have no problem bringing Clausen in slowly, we need our benches to be warm. The bigger question is the number 3 QB. Tony Pike wouldnt last on the PS so is he guaranteed a spot even though I thought he sucked in college. Great measurables but bad arm strength. I say Cantwell back on PS to see if Pike can develop.

How about "baring" how either perform in preseason.

I love how people are making predictions for the starting roster when Clausen hasn't thrown one snap in an actual pro game, preseason or not.

I'm pulling for Moore myself because I think he deserves it, but may the best man win and may they both challenge each other make one another better.

What happened to Jake?

Thank God, now I can sleep. I've been up since we signed Clausen.
