For those wanting a new QB

[Spike]

Jake had the worst game of his career. At least it's done and over with!

Seriously though, we have talent on the roster at the QB position, that have advantages over anyone else we bring in.

Besides, the Panthers FO isn't looking for a QB to carry the team.

There aint much talent. Delhomme is old and has always been bottom of the barrel as far as football talent goes. McCown is average at best. Moore is awful and wont even be in the NFL in 2-3 years. Basanez will be one of the Bears first cuts in training camp.

I see we just give up now and beat the rush...

Not giving up, Moore was meh in college against weak PAC-10 defenses. He was mediocre when he played at the end of the regular season. He was awful this preseason. He isnt an NFL caliber player.

I just thought that since you found our other two options as bad or worse...

[I am Hubby]

As much as I hate to admit it, Gantt is probably right. However, with Baz gone, we do have a spot for QB, so we will be getting a new QB. I am just not going to get excited until I see who they try and bring in, whether it's a draft pick or a FA. We will just have to wait and see how this all plays out.

We all know Jake is shaky. And we all know Jake is our QB. We also know we aren't getting a new QB until Jake retires, suffers a career ending injury, or dies. Until then; We are who we are as it comes to QBs.

funny. 31 other teams would be weighing their options right now, first rounder or no first rounder.

[scpanther22]

i think we will get a new...QB for the pratice squad.but i dont think it was a mistake that all are QBs contracts are up next season.

[KillerKat]

Gant thinking Basanez could've been competition for a starting job is just dumb. Thinking Delhomme might get a contract extension is even dumber beyond belief.

That's a big stretch. I seriously doubt the Colts, Chargers, Bengals, Steeler, Saints, Falcons, and a boatload of other teams are wighing their options right now. Honestly, I'd be surprised if any team with an established starter is doing such a thing.

Teams are weighing options only where they feel they have needs. Like it or not, the Panthers don't see QB as a need. Fan opinion doesn't matter.

Delhomme's cap figure being what it is this year, there are only two logical options:

A) restructure, which means extending his contract

release him

Which one do you seriously think the Panthers are contemplating?

C) wait to see how he does this year

If he plays like this past season, he won't get extended. Which I'm pretty sure will happen.

That means an 11 million dollar cap figure for Delhomme, on a cap strapped team that has needs at more than one other spot and might have to make room for a 17 million dollar franchise tag.

"C" is wishful thinking on your part, and extremely unlikely to happen.

Thinking he's going to change is wishful thinking on yours. He'll still be the same turnover machine like he always has been.

Doesn't matter what you think. Doesn't matter what I think. Doesn't matter what anybody on this board or any other fan thinks. This isn't going to a vote.

Only the team's opinion matters, and every beat writer that covers the team would tell you that the team's opinion of how Delhomme performed this season is markedly different from yours.

Outside of your own opinion, do you have any item from the team coverage to supports the notion that he'll just "play out this year" with an 11 million dollar cap hit?
