Big Monday: Moore, Connor, Davis to IR


Laetitia

Recommended Posts

Just another Monday at Bank of America Stadium.

Panthers coach John Fox announced that QB Matt Moore (torn right labrum) and MLB Dan Connor (hip surgery) would be placed on injured reserve, knocking two starters out of an already thin lineup.

As to this week's game at Tampa Bay, Fox said either Jimmy Clausen or Tony Pike would be counted on to start, while the team would look to add another passer to fill the roster spot.

The crowd on the street at the moment isn't good, headlined by JaMarcus Russell, Joey Harrington, Patrick Ramsey and Brian St. Pierre (the best of the rest are locked into UFL contracts).

Fox even suggested that he might give Armanti Edwards some looks as the emergency quarterback this week.

Without Connor, the Panthers will move Jon Beason back inside to MLB, and let either Nic Harris or Jordan Senn (and perhaps even newcomer Jason Williams) compete for time at WLB.

Oh by the way, they're not going to activate WLB Thomas Davis from the physically unable to perform list, ending his attempt to come back from two torn ACLs in less than a year.

one has to wonder if fox is making as many attempts as possible to divert this season's failures away from himself. jerry handcuffs his personnel decisions, won't sign veterans, cuts veterans - and now the team's starting quarterback and two linebackers are done for the season, otah's probably next.

wow can't believe this is how matt's career may end in carolina........because of a dumbass coach who decide to sink two qb's career with the lack of playcalling and oline depth.....i remember in 08 where if gross or otah got hurt we had guys who would play there asses off that you wouldn't know the difference.....Wow

    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
