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.

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.

      XL is a Lost Cause

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I agree with this and I think it's worth mentioning too that Bryce is not consistent on his placement and especially velocity and that in large part is driven by his footwork. We all know XL doesn't have the best hands and I don't know that he can overcome that. Cam always had the heater that just hit your hands and sank into your grip, where Bryce has some that are harder thrown, some soft. Bryce stepping into a pass looks so much different than that hop throw thing he does. I think XL really needs to hit the jugs machine and start learning how to catch all these different touch passes. TMac and Coker don't have these issues. If XL doesn't get some work in he's going to be out of the league in the next couple of years.

      I think most people like XL from a personal standpoint. I don't think he's stupid either. Although if we are being realistic he is lacking in football IQ at this point in time and it cannot be disputed that he has not taken working on his craft seriously at all times given the body of work on the field. It speaks for itself. I myself have defended him at times given the circumstances of our QB room. But he is now in his third year and 25 years old. We are not in a position as a franchise to go around babying anyone especially first round draft picks. He needs to take his position and his football career seriously or he is going to end up selling used cars somewhere. I hope he realizes this and takes an extended break from social media because that mess certainly isn't going to increase his net worth if he ends up out of the league. And these hanger on types will disappear quick too once that money dries up and it surely will eventually. We'll see how he responds.
