Panthers Stock Watch

[CRA]

Gantt has a point. Moore has yet to look like a starting NFL QB through 2 preseason games. He just looks like another guy out there.

As for Gantt disliking Moore.. last season, absolutely. He's actually been way more critical of Clausen this off-season and been pretty supportive of our starting QB. He makes fun of anyone suggesting Clausen might challenge Moore and has been pretty positive regarding Moore's camp. He's just (rightfully) been unimpressed with Moore's showing as a starting QB against other teams.

Also, it's hardly like he's slurping Clausen. He flat out says in the same paragraph that Clausen has been no better.

True he hasn't looked great yet.

But he also doesn't have any starting WRs to throw to. I mean just b/c Carolian technically has to start someone doesn't really make them starting NFL WRs. Factoring poor OL play into that with teams doing heavy blitzing in games teams don't gameplan for......and I wouldn't be surprised if Peyton Manning looked like David Carr in that scenario.

I think it is fair to point out he hasn't really impressed in preseason thus far. I wouldn't say it is fair to say he looked bad though...and Gantt has done that. He actually looked pretty decent imo against Balt.

Of course he'll be the starter. But it's obvious you can't be objective at all concerning Matt. Why even have this lame stocks article to begin with? It's pre-season, everyone is getting used to gearing up again, no one plans for blitzes, and crappy players are out there, right? Why does Matt (in your eyes) get a pass on a stock list while others should be put on it? Both our QBs have looked like crap. There are reasons for it, sure. So technically their stock has dropped. Can't get any more simple than that.

Who's giving him a pass? did I say he was great? no, I said his stock hasn't changed. You have your opinion, I'll have mine, and I'll leave it there
