Panthers quarterback Moore downcast, but says he will maintain his focus

One thing I can almost guarantee... if Fox is here next year, Moore won't be. I wouldn't work for a guy who did this to me unless there was no where else to go to make a living. Fox is screwing him by pulling him after only two games...

Moore didn't help himself any with poor play. He didn't elevate the team, he fell down with it.

Now... that being said...

Back in April, I said Fox didn't like Moore. I stand by that. I think there is some sort of personal issue there. Delhomme was benched only after we lost a legit shot at the playoffs (11 games). Moore has been benched after two games for a Rookie.

There's no explanation for this other than loyalty for Jake, and a lack of that same loyalty for Matt. Maybe Fox learned a lesson from last year... but such a dynamic flip-flop usually has less than logical explanations.

at least some ones on track.......fox is a tard sitting jarrett and moore....i can name 3 other starting qbs who have far worst stats then moore but yet they will be starting next week.....moore was set up for the get go

Really 3 other QB's???? Moore has the second lowest Rating next to Flacco, He has the lowest comp percentage of all qb's that have thrown in the reg season. Has 6 turnovers through 2 games and barely has 300 yards on 49 throws.....I'd like to know these other 3 QB's....

I agree

I am glad I read past the first page of threads to get this...so I am not replicating.

Matt is royally peeved, it showed in his face (post game press conf.) and it sounded clearly in his responses to anything about the choice telegraphed on Monday to everyone. As stated, he sat and watched Jake get owned and just waited his turn...when it came he produced. Numerous doubters prevailed, but it seemed like Matt was getting his chance.

WE all agreed, generally, that it was Matt's job to lose and sho 'nuff he did, and thus the anger opens up. Matt's got to get over it (he's still got his $3.4 million) and, frankly, Clausen's got to calm down...he's already feeling the height from the pedistal. JC's getting all this too early, IMHO, and just needs to settle in.

Just let me say that John Fox has, in his swansong season, shown what we wanted from him all along, these past few season's, a common sense decision that overrules pig headedness!

Ding, ding, ding ,ding...

We have a winner folks!

The clue to making this statement true is to watch the play calling and see if it is any different. If the team shows more formations, quicker developing plays, and basically anything that has been shown in past years, but not this year, then this will be true.

Fox and Davidson are grasping at straws, and this will buy them a couple of games. I am a Panther fan first and foremost.

I feel bad for Matt, but what he has done thus far will earn him a spot somewhere else next year.

It might seem far fetched but could it be that John Fox is feeling the pressure Matt now feels? It is no secret that numerous pundits are mentioning that teams like Dallas may be looking for the same mid season layoffs Washington had to struggle with.

It still is reasonable to think that Fox has to show flexibility and decisiveness to some future employer..something he's been proven, lately, not willing to concede to.

And what of Davidson and/or Meeks? How many believe that John Fox is the culprit and they merely the mouthpieces? Moore may be "downcast" but he's no outcast and will find work!

or maybe he screwed himself. he just has not looked comfortable as the main guy, maybe clausen's promotion is coming from the top or maybe the coaches feel they need to change. no need to compare him to dehlomme cause he doesn't have the resume(03 nfc championship,03 superbowl, 2 division champioships,2 nfc champioship games,5-3 playoff record,59 career wins)

Quite right! Anyone who thinks this is because JF did not lke him is only 40% right...put yourself in MM's shoes...you get the starting position, win some key late games, and then go into OS thinking "hey, I've made it!" Then along comes the draft and suddenly word's out...you ain't what the base sees as a "future" for this team, and they fallen into rose fertilizer...a kid who wants your job...NOW!

JD's resume' aside, you ain't JF's adoptee...and you sure don't have pedigree.

Just one thought for JC...be careful what you wish for, and when it comes just think ND!

      Not in same league. Caldwell just hit a 10.00 on the RAS. 2nd out of 3830 from 1987 onward.  https://x.com/MathBomb/status/2027885023387349047 Yeah I mean Louis had a sub 9.00 RAS. Still very very good, no doubt. Louis is small, no 2 ways about it. He is likely a sub package lb in nickel packages or specialized WLB. Be fine ST gunner to start for sure. 6 foot flat and 220lb is pushing it for a starting LB. At 10 to 20lbs less than the other LBs he'd better be closer to the top in most timed drills. He's gonna be challenged when some of the wrs in the class can matchup bigger stronger faster, much less TE in the run game.  Yeah instinct matter and he has them, but that size is a massive red flag compared to many of the other LBS in this class.    Rodriguez is the LB that really climbed this week from a pure grit guy to great flash with athleticism people wrote off cause he was a QB at first at UVA. 18.4mph in the backpedal. Production the last 2 years were great. I'd be thrilled with him as the future mike.   Hill likely moved out of 51 and into the top 45 picks ( Ravens at 45 I can't imagine don't bite if he makes it there). Honestly Hill imo is a 1st rounder and I'd be ok with him as he fits the MLB we have missed the last few years. People would crow it's a reach but he's top 30 all-time I'm RAS for a LB at 9.9+ . Plus he was big time in big games when he was healthy. And that br a big check: meds.

      Miller, Melo, Coby, Moose, and Bridges all on the floor at the same time must be a nightmare for defenses lol. Switch one out for Kon and still a nightmare. Coby really does bring a true 6th man value and looks like he could start if Melo was out after only a few games of getting his feet wet.

      Well I guess he should stop playing football. This was his defining moment and chance to prove he was generational and he failed. What a waste of football life..
