what would the panthers record be if delhomme had been starting all season?

:lol:

obviously a necessary move to cut delhomme and head in a different direction, but it's ironic to think that if a delhomme-caliber player was out there in free agency right now, the entire huddle would be chomping at the bit to bring him in and provide a measure of leadership and stability at the quarterback position.

how times change :out:

Delhomme is only part of what's missing. If McCoy was still here, and Delhomme was here, then I suspect we would be flirting with a winning record right now. He would still be throwing INTs, but his presence would really help the running game, and I don't believe it's a stretch to see us with three more wins than we have now.

Lol. Yeah...he really would have helped. He wouldn't have had any time with the receivers due to steve smith being out in pre season, and the rotation of the other guys. With the oline failing to execute the first half of the season, he would have pressed..throwing at least as many interceptions. His ability to hold onto the ball to long, combined with his inability to throw the ball away, would translate to more lost yardage due to sacks, and he had been hurt within the first month of the season.

But thank you for bringing up this priceless "what if"

Yet more bs that a blind man can shoot down.

Damn Pantherclaw u seem to have been in a bad mood for the last year huh?

Lol

No bad mood at all.

In fact I'm laughing at every ignorant statement that gets thrown around on here.

Delhomme would have helped. On what planet?

Its the owners fault. For lack of execution, and injuries? Really!

Its foxes fault. Once again, coaches and owners don't play. Fox and company (as much as I dislike davidson) are coaching these guys up as much as possible. The players are still making mistakes. The team just isn't good enough to overcome the mistakes that are being made due to the lack of execution.

poo happens. Its still happening. And all the majority can do is throw poo at the wall, and see what sticks.

But if ya can't laugh at the poo that gets said around here, then the alternative is accepting how little panther fans know and understand about the game of football.

    • I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
