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.

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
