Blasphemous Idea

With Colt McCoy emerging in Cleveland, what are the chances Jake Delhomme makes a re-appearance in Carolina next year?

Seneca Wallace might remain to be the backup, and old injury prone Delhomme will probably get cut. If for some magical reason Delhomme dons a Panther uniform again, what will you do?

I dunno, but I imagine somebody will bump this thread and you will become the scapegoat.

I mean, it's sadly possible. At the very least, he knows this time around he doesn't have what it takes to start and he'll be fine riding the bench and offering advice to the young guys. We don't know what kinda role he had in developing McCoy or helping Matt Moore last year.

4-3? what did we go with him in the lineup last year?

i know, i know, it's all speculation - but on a team with absolutely NO veteran presence, having a very mediocre quarterback (who i daresay is better than anyone on the current roster) with exceptional leadership skills would've been invaluable.

He's not mediocre anymore...but damn if it isn't sad that the bolded is possibly true :(

But, F*** Delhomme

    • While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
