Moore taken to hospital after loss


Laetitia

Recommended Posts

Carolina Panthers QB Matt Moore was taken to a nearby hospital for evaluation, after taking a vicious hit late in Sunday's 31-18 loss at New York.

Team officials weren't certain that he'd make the flight back to Charlotte with the team, and had no further word on his condition.

Moore, who was sacked four times and threw three interceptions, doubled over on the field after being sacked late in the fourth quarter by Giants defensive end Osi Umenyiora. He was helped to the bench, in obvious discomfort. Rookie Jimmy Clausen finished the game.

"It's tough," left tackle Jordan Gross said. "When a left tackle gets beat, bad things happen."

I really don't get the hate here. Moore is our quarterback for good or bad. If he is hurt it will be Clausen's turn and everyone needs to get behind him. This is who we will have to win or lose with. There was plenty of fault to go around in that game. Hopefully they get better at home and Tampa may be the perfect tonic.

I can't blame Moore for much besides throwing the 3 picks, they were horrible, but we didn't exactly set him up for success... As Moose and Goose said on the broadcast, the predictability of offensive playcalling was laughable.

That being said, I don't see what's wrong with giving Clausen a shot next week, as I don't think we planned to make MM our QB for the future anyway, and that's why he didn't get an extension, only a one-year tender.

I hope he's alright.

    • He does have speed. 21+ top end speed is very fast for a linebacker and his 3 cone drill time is considered excellent, close to elite.  
    • This is awesome because you get to see the perspectives of the scouts--get a glimpse behind the curtain. I wonder whose doing this was; I am curious as to why David Tepper allowed it. Maybe it was his wife. Maybe Dan.  At least from my perspective--and probably one shared by other fans--when David Tepper bought the team, he closed everything off too much to the fans, and really didn't give an explanation. Things were obviously done because he (and/or some others wanted to do it). Remember when they used the guise of construction and all that to keep fans from seeing the team during practice? I know there are laws and safety and all that, but Tepper could've made it happen. And, of course, we all know that they essentially fired Jeremy from his independent contractor gig as a photojournalist. I never understood why they'd do that (and the negative reverberations obviously affected Jeremy and ultimately this place--i.e, us fans). The pie was (and is) certainly big enough to throw some scraps to the independents. I realize that you can't necessarily open the floodgates, but a few different perspectives from indy journalists whether in word or photos is a good thing in my mind.  So, it's great to see different perspectives. I will say this however: it is not without risk, as you know there will be some buster who will be calling the scouts out if the players flop. I think we should all keep in mind that the buck stops with the GM. It's nice to have one, however, that is so convicted in his people and process--and ultimately success, that he's willing to give fans access to this type of information. Pass this on to Tepper.
    • I hope he ends up being our best ever at the position. Ryan Kalil left big shoes behind that we haven't quite been able to fill since.
