What's Moore going to do now?

Clausen and Pike are under (cheap) contracts. The Panthers just drafted Newton. Presumably, Moore wants a legitimate shot at starting.

Last days in Carolina or is he going to try and get the short term job here as an audition while Newton learns the NFL?

Moore was gone the moment he got hurt last season.

Clausen is getting the shaft. He was thrown into the deep end of the proverbial pool before he was ready, had no time to develop, played with an injured patch-work offensive line - hell, even Rivera said it was almost impossible to evaluate him due to the circumstances and conditions under which he played. The guy is last year's 2nd round draft pick, and they are already abandoning him. Do you guys realize we have ERIC SHELTON and DWAYNE JARRED more opportunity than we gave/are giving Clausen?!

The guy I feel the worst for is Pike. The guy has skills; however, Fox didn't like him at all and had no intention of trying to develop him. He brought in SCRUBS to replace Clausen instead of trying Pike and seeing what he had. When they bring a Veteran to run the offense while Newton develops, which they will HAVE to do, Pike and Moore will be jettisoned. At the very most one of them might hope to be kept on as a member of the Practice Squad.

At first I thought he would play that vet role but hearing Rivera talk about Cam possibly starting and the reports that Jimmy is in working right now I think he's gone.

If Carolina STARTS Cam Newton right away he WILL be another JaMarcus Russell! Newton is NOT ready! He needs time to develop.

(The more and more I look at Cam the more and more I think 'Donte Culpepper' for some reason.)

Clausen isn't getting shafted, he's going to be a good backup QB for the Panthers because he doesn't turn the ball over much and that's an admirable quality for a young backup. He also can mentor Cam a bit with regard to being a rookie QB in Charlotte and what to expect, good and bad. I still say Clausen starts Week 1. As it should be, unless Newton blows it up and gets the job that fast.

Was Dwanye Jarred any good?

      Ekwonu doesn’t get dog walked under 2 minutes in the 4th, we drive, kick a FG and win

      A lot of young QB's struggle with holding on to the ball top long. He has gotten better progressively in that regard. Pocket Time(in Sec):  2.5(2023), 2.3(2024), 2.2(2025) Time to Throw(in Sec): 2.9(2023), 2.79(2024), 2.82(2025) The divedends have been fairly small, is the issue.

      If you can only fire ONE person before 2026....

      I'm firing DC, though I think it actually makes the job less attractive. He's not prepared to be a HC and it's showed. A new HC is not going to be tied automatically to BY. He's going to want to bring in some level of competition in the QB room because anyone who has ever watched football knows our QB room is lacking. If he doesn't, that tells a more interesting tale of who's really calling the shots.  Dave hasn't been decisive enough in game and that leadership council BS has trust fall vibes. Our offense has been pathetically stale and vanilla. Our run game while good has made no sense based on who has been playing best. Our defense is improved but they can't be expected to hold opposing teams to below 17 a game because our offense can't score consistently.  We've beaten some teams we shouldn't have beaten, specifically GB and the Rams, and I think our record doesn’t accurately reflect where the team and the coaching really is. We've fallen flat against a geriatric rookie QB leading a 2-10 NO team and got our ass handed to us TWICE. We're unprepared for the biggest games.  This is what happens though when real coaching candidates turn down interviews because your owner is a narcissistic butthole. You get someone no one else bothered to call and you get the results everyone else would have expected if they had.

      The Saints would be 2-12 if not for us. We are 50% of their wins. A organization serious about the playoffs does not get bullied by a sh*t team like the Saints TWICE. It's over my brotha.
