Then when he starts for us next year and plays with a major chip on his shoulder, you will love him again. I will bump this back to the top so we can all see who the bandwaggoners are.

I'm not a huge Jake fan by any stretch, but I don't think it would make sense to release him b/c our options are very limited at this point. Moore and McCown are unproven, the FA market for QB is very slim, and odds of getting a potential starter in the draft are not good for us without a 1st rounder and the lack of talent at QB coming out in 2009. We would be foolish not plan for a future starter in 2010 IMO.

dont get me wrong, Jake let me down in a major way. He played the worst game of his career in a game we were pumped up to dominate. I live in missouri so I had about 25 people texting me mouthing. Then I would ask how the chiefs played this year and they would not text back. But, Jake is still an average QB capable of leading us to the SB. We are not a passing team, so dont need an elite QB. If we changed now, it would take a year or two just to get the chemistry back on the team.

No Way. Moore is not the answer, McCown is a joke, we don't have a first rnd pick, and there is no FA QBs available that would fit here. Warner not coming to a running team and probley to late in his career to even be considerd. Collins no place in Charlotte and anyone else is a bum. Jake will be our starter next season, but we do need him to renegotiate his deal.

    • That's my biggest concern with making him the 2C.  You split up the Aho Jarvis bromance that accounted for a lot of points.  If Jarvis excels as a C, it could help the team even more though.
    • The Saints being that high is the one that killed me. Chris Olave might not know his name at this point, Shaheed is coming off injury as well, so 31 year old Brandin Cooks might be your best WR...coming off a 260 yard season over 10 games. Kamara is Kamara, but didn't have 1,000 yards last year and is about to turn 30.  Toss in the fact that Taysom Hill may be the best QB on the team and I truly don't understand Barnwell's thoughts beside seeing the names "Olave" and "Kamara" and going yep, that sounds better than "Chuba" and "Thielen". 
    • Now now now, I wouldn't say there is no logic, but there's just not a lot of in-depth thought put into Barnwell's  "analysis." Now to be fair to him (and other national writers), pre-season team rankings are basically clickbait. And...Barnwell, himself, said that "there's a lot of projection here." He basically admits that he doesn't know how the hell things are going to turn out with our receiver group. He also said that "I find myself" more intrigued by Coker than Legette; that does not mean that he said that fans should be, or that Coker will even be better than Legette (regardless of ESPN's per-route-run stat). So, yeah, Barnwell said some things, but even he has to basically admit that he doesn't know how bad or good that our playmakers will be in 2025.  Overall, what Barnwell is basically thinking is that the Panthers have gotten worse at the offensive skill positions, and baked into that is that others have gotten better. That's the argument in July (meaning, please don't give this any more weight than it's due). I would personally be surprised (not shocked) if we end up worse than the Titans, Pats and Giants at least. Once you throw in the Bills, Giants, Jets, Steelers, and even the Chargers, I personally think there are several teams' skill groups that may end up ranked lower than ours by the end of 2025.  @kungfoodudeis one of my dudes, but like others he is over the tipping point. He's had enough. Seeing is believing. I will say this though: Barnwell's piece is less about logic than just good ol' opinion. And to be honest, he might as well be a Huddler throwing out sh¡t in the summer based upon nothing but good feels or bad feels.  Our offense as a whole (just like any other team's) is going to depend upon the play of the O-line and especially the QB. How you can even rank the skill positions without expressly baking those two things in the cake is beyond me. I would dare say that that's not even logical.
