Could Matt Moore still be our guy?

The forgotten man of the hour is Matt Moore. A guy that ended strong in the 09 season and then fell like a rock in 2010. My question is if we get a real OC and QB coach is it just possible we could have a starting QB there? Or should we just cut our loss with him and hope Pickles and Co can handle the load?

He'd be a great back-up. But you people HAVE to get it through your heads that he's not a franchise QB. Stop accepting mediocrity. We don't have a franchise QB right now and there is no way to get one right now unless we draft a QB in the third and luck out over time. We'll have to wait another year to try, IMO. So we may as well bring in a FA who is better than Jimmy and Matt so we can at least compete.

I hope we keep him, it's hard to judge him for how he played this year with how our line was blocking, or lack there of, if we don't go after a solid vet then I hope we roll with Moore as the starter next year. Don't forget Clausen only was starting because Moore was hurt and we had nobody better

Well we are getting a new coaching staff and we have to assume that whoever we bring in is automatically going to be better than the below average crap we had before, so why not retain him to compete for the QB spot considering he has a winning record with Jeff Davidson calling the plays on his résumé. Of course we bring someone else in but there isn't much out there that is any better.

^^Pete Carrol already said he's gong to do everything in his power to keep Hasselbeck. I'm in the Donovan McNabb camp personally. I wouldn't mind giving Matt Moore a chance to come back but I highly doubt he'll out perform a FA and if he does then great.

Only concern is do we know that there is going to be some awesome QB prospect in next years draft. I'm really in the mindset that we're not going to have the #1 pick so Luck in my mind is not going to be a Panther so is holding out for some nameless faceless college standout really the answer?

Competition only makes good players better.

Bring him back, and let him compete.

I think people are scared of having a qb better than clausen, that isn't a household name.

I think people are scared to try something new. Instead they want to hold onto the handful of games he won for us. If we can do better than Moore...we need to do so. Guess what? We can.

Need an OC and a QB Coach first though...then the CBA, before anything happens.

I think he should get 1 more legit shot with us. Rivera has obviously watched the tape, he knows he's better than Clausen and he knows there's not a lot of options in FA.

Problem with this is

1. He was better but he also was playing in a system he had played in for 4 years. While Jimmy had only been in it for what? A few months. So yeah he would look better.

2. He crap on himself and admitted it. The pressure of being a starting QB got 2 him. The new coaching staff will see that in tapes and interviews as well.

3. I think he not only let down himself but he also may have ruin any faith JR had in him. When JR was talking about bad QB play he wasn't only talking about Jimmy. Matt had a big part in that 2.

I feel JR put alot of faith for this season in Matt building on what he did at the end of last season he didn't.

      Is Charlotte the worst sports city right now?

      By Seltzer · Posted

      I went to Canes games back in '04 & '05 when you were probably still a swimmer waiting to make your dad a father. There was no one there bc they sucked. Some of the lowest attendance in the NHL. As a Panthers fan coming off a SB season (03-04), I couldn't even believe they put a hockey team in Raleigh, and given the attendance, a lot of people speculated they would be relocated somewhere back up north where they would be supported and not "Mayberry." Seriously, educate youself.  That is reality. That being said, comparing that environment to 2024 Canes would be disingenuous. I was at PNC last year and know how great the current environment is. Comparing the current environment at BOA to 10 years ago is just as disingenuous.  Just bc you didn't witness how good BOA is when the Panthers are actually decent doesn't change reality. Seriously, surely you see that coming from such an elitist environment like the globally renowned world-class city of Raleigh, NC... I guarantee you if you went to a Canes game and a Panthers game in 2005, the difference would be unreal bc the Panthers were awesome and the Canes were (at the time) a moribund franchise. I have been in BOA when the whole stadium was rocking. You simply are young, don't know what you're talking about, but want to portray yourself as having knowledge about things you simply don't. You have a lot in common with modern day politicians and televangelists Like I said, Idiocracy has prevailed... Have a great day too!

      Let it all out bro.   At the end of the day Charlotte fans just aren't that passionate as other fans. The Panthers and Hornets crowds are wack.    Go to a Canes game and you will understand this. Tell the family I said hi and Happy Father's Day.

      Dude you have no idea what you're talking about. Best place to live?  LMAO... that's your criteria...  Charlotte gets put all over those lists too... come on man... and those lists have zero to do with sports. I'm done after this bc I'm punching down intellectually here... The Panthers have been bad for 6 years now. You are obviously young and not overly educated based off the "dunks" you're putting out there that certainly are, so let me educate you today on the Panthers. The Panthers sold out for well over a decade straight. BOA has been as good an environment as there is when the team is good.  Fan support for the Panthers has been incredible when the team has even remotely reciprocated. The idea that Charlotte doesn't support the Panthers is utter BS. People in Raleigh have the biggest little brother syndrome of all time... Nobody outside of the Triangle cares about any of your "vaunted" sports team outside of Duke-UNC in basketball on a national scale. Sure, the Canes are great. But nationally, the WWE dwarfs the NHL in ratings. More people care about Cody Rhodes than Sebastian Aho... or anyone else in the NHL for that matter... I doubt less than 5% of anyone in this state outside of Raleigh even knows who that is... that's a knock on Aho who is a great player, it's just the NHL barely makes a ripple in the overall hierarchy of American sports. It's not in the same universe as the NFL or NBA no matter how badly you want to tell yourself otherwise. Raleigh is not a big-time sports city, no matter how much you want to scream into the abyss about it. Neither is Charlotte. But no one here is making such a nonsense argument... LOL it's good to be young and to be ignorant enough to be confidently wrong... WTF are you even on this board though since Charlotte is so beneath you? There is an actual discussion board on this very site for Raleigh sports since they are so superior...  Maybe it's bc I'm watching Idiocracy with my son, but your timing is perfect, my man... The dumbest among us have become the most confidence in their ignorance... God Bless America!!
