Moore wants to stay a Panther

It's been a season filled with uncertainty for Panthers quarterback Matt Moore, and it could be an offseason of uncertainty as well.

One thing, however, is for certain: Moore would like to be a Panther next season.

"Absolutely. There's no doubt about that," Moore said. "That would be the No. 1 goal.

"If it's up to me, I'd be here. This is my home now. The people here have been great to me football-wise. In this building, everything has been great. I've had good experiences here."

Moore, who is eligible to become a free agent after the season, made his first public comments Wednesday since season-ending shoulder surgery nearly a month ago. Moore said he's recovering slowly but steadily from the torn labrum in his right shoulder that he suffered Nov. 7 against New Orleans.

"I feel great," Moore said, adding that he hopes to be able to start throwing in March. "My range of motion is good. We're just working slowly on getting some strength back. I'm taking it slow, day by day, but it's getting better."

Moore opened the season as the Panthers' starting quarterback but struggled, getting intercepted three times in the end zone in a season-opening loss at the New York Giants.

His struggles continued the next week, prompting the Panthers to turn to rookie Jimmy Clausen as their Week 3 starter. Clausen started the next three games before head coach John Fox turned back to Moore, who responded to the second chance by leading Carolina to its lone victory, 23-20 over the San Francisco 49ers.

Wow, talk about toting the company line. I like the guy, so don't get me wrong, but when exactly have they been great to you? When the coaches benched you in favor of a craptastic rookie? Or when the fans who are clueless booed you, Matt?

At this point, bring him back for at least TC, let him, Luck, Vet, and Pickles battle it out, and see who wins. Nothing wrong with that.

Moore has played before this season. He had 2 bad games and we gave up on him. Matt Cassell had 2 bad games to start the season and look how his season has been like. Honestly I blame John Fox for being too stubborn to give Moore another chance. I mean seriously two bad games and we bench him for a horrible rookie, just another reason for Fox to be fired.

I also think Matt Moore is good enough to win us games. We could pass on Luck and get a much needed DT to help the defense.

I kinda hope Moore does come back, to be honest. Even though I did want Clausen to play(and I was wrong about Clausen, painfully so), I like Moore a lot, but...

I just don't know if I see it. It may be better for his career to go some place new, too. I mean, either way, he is unlikely to be a long term starter here with us either going to end up with Luck or end up with Clausen playing well enough to keep us from Luck (LOL like THAT will happen)

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
