Question for all pink slipping Jake fans


carolinaAl

Recommended Posts

Who the %^&^% do we replace him with?

Simple question.

Are there any Matt Cassels hiding on somebodies bench we don't know about.

Ryan adn Flacco were flukes. You may draft a Qb to grrom but you do not generally draft one to start.

So say we carry out your plans and pink slip Jake.

What next??????????????

That's a scary question but a good one. However, most (including myself) may not like the answer: NO ONE!

Free agency is not a good place to find future QBs and there's slim picking in this year's FA crop will excite anyone. We have no first round pick (not complaining, getting Otah was a good move), getting a future QB this year is out of the question. A third point is, Fox will stick with Delhomme come hell or high water and there's no reason to think he won't be the starter in 2009 as long as Fox is calling the shots.

Beyond next year (when his contract expires), who knows?

Jake aint gonna live forever boys & girls. Those who fail to plan, plan to fail.

Very true, and there lies the problem. The organization has placed all of their "eggs" in Jake's basket w/o planning for the future for too long. They tried Carr, but he was a colossal failure. Matt Moore? I'm not sold on him yet, and I'm of the thinking that undrafted players are such for a reason. I'm not sure sitting for 2-3 years watching Delhomme is the best development plan, but unfortunately, it seems like the only "development plan" Fox's coaching staff has in place for QBs. I guess getting a real QB coach would be too much to expect.

Delhomme comes back next season but you have to have him accountable. Put pressure on him with a capable back up.

Is it a free agent? is it Matt Moore? Don not laugh but is it Josh Mccown?? He has the same skill set (better feet) as Delhomme but has a better arm and has a year under his belt in the offense. Just make it competitive...and have the "cohonies" to deliver some tough love. That's you Foxie!!

This morning on local sports radio they threw out Kerry Collins name. Kerry stated he will only play next year if he is a starter and that will probably not happen in TN with so much invested in Vince Young. Don't kill the messenger...just found that name being tossed around rather interesting considering the history. He does still live in the area also........

When you get your ass kicked, it's really hard to blame one person. I blame Jake a lot BUT I really think Fox and his game plan is more to blame for the Arizona loss than Jake or even the o-line. We were beat by a better coaching staff. Arizona wanted it more, their team was more focused, bottomline.

As far as QB. The Panthers need to do something. Keep Jake because there really is nobody much better out there BUT the Eagles had to give Donovan a scare and we needed to give Jake one after the Raiders performance.

The signs were there. Didn't even really feel confident going into this game with Jake? I didn't. I watched tape of our last 6 games and really felt he had lost himself.

Even if Jake plays well, we are crazy as a team not to be preparing a replacement for him. Sooner or later he's going to get too old to play, not to mention injuries happen in this league and we need to have a plan. I don't know if our backups now are that person or not.

    • I used to think Juan was a Zod alt. Agree he's a great poster.
    • Hawks said nah we good and sent him to the shadow realm aka the Wizards. Cold blooded. I mean they're 2-2 in a series with a young up and coming Knicks team largely through 34 year old CJ McCollum. Even if they ultimately lose the series at least they are there and have something to build on. I think Hornets fans are just beaten down and lack the objectivity to assess the situation. They think we are going to get so much worse if and when we finally change gears. Worse how? We've already been a lottery team for years now. We've already been looking to win our first playoff series in about a quarter century. We already can't get past the play in and in failing to do so we have completely embarrassed ourselves twice looking like we don't even belong. Honestly there is absolutely no excuse for a team like the Magic to be more competitive and successful than us in the playoffs. Absolutely disgusting. But that's just me. I was fuging lit when we got the Hornets back in Charlotte but that is old old news. It's time for these boys to get into a playoff series. Enough is enough. If they can't do it for 2026-27 then they need to make wholesale changes regardless.
    • Not one single pick that is asking me why we drafted a guy in the first place. It was a guy we needed and/or a guy that had certain traits making them stand out. Best of all, I feel everyone we drafted are capable of stepping onto the field this year and have a meaningful role (even Kuwatch on special teams). Obviously, nothing is guaranteed but I'm not seeing any huge flags on guys because they're risky projects or massive overreaches.
