I dont know if this has been talked about yet since i don't know how to search it but do you guys think Carolina will restructure Delhomme's contract to open up some cap space for Peppers in case he doesn't get traded?? And if they do, do you think Delhomme will take a paycut to stay in Carolina??

I can't see Jake being asked to take a paycut, that would be an admitting lack of performance/confidence. it's more likely they sign him to a long term backloaded deal knowing he probably won't play it out.

Remember you have to take into fact the 30% rule on contracts now because of the uncapped year. So his contract extension couldn't be too back loaded. They can't really restructure either since he's in the last year of his deal. He would have to be extended.

I dont think they will restructure his contract at all, they'll let him do his thing this yr. and if he shows no improvement or they dont have a decent backup he'll be gone the next season.

I'm not sure they have much choice he has a 5.3 million cap number, it's pretty much extend or cut and he's not getting cut.

Let me rephrase, relatively backloaded.

They will probably extend Jake by three years.

For all of those who want Jake cut and replaced, who are you going to replace him with?

A rookie? Who has never taken a snap in the NFL. You do realize that most rookies struggle for several years starting out. ryan was an exception to the rule. And Flacco did not play that well...he just had a defense that was pure nastiness.

Someone like Brady Quinn, or Anderson, etc... The "hot " name of a back-up. Someone who has never proven anythign as well.

Jake is not a spring chicken and the Panthers do need to start grooming someone to be his replacement. However, he should and will start for the next few seasons.

Stop trying to interject logic into the discussion. You know that one bad playoff game totally overshadows everything else. Same as Manning in New York.

      Most talented, injury prone softest asshole that doesn't give a fug about the team. I'd take a second and a few guys that give a poo.    Why's your defense better now melo?   I just be tryin now......... And that last about 3 games last year

      Only team with a winning record…

      I know it can’t be done, but taking out the NE and BUF games turn that differential around. Those two games alone count for a -60 point differential for the Panthers.   The only other loss that was a bit out of hand was the Jacksonville game, which had a -16 differential, and the first ATL win was a +30. All in all, a few lopsided games but most have been close.   All it says is the Panthers aren’t dominating teams when they win, and they have a complete dud of a loss every few games.

      And a negative scoring differential. We have scored 207 points for, and 249 given up. Tells me a lot about this team, some of it good more of it bad. My questions are why do we think that is?    And what can we do differently to start winning more games by a wider margin. It does feel like we are much more competitive this season and for that I am grateful. We are going in the right direction. But what pieces could we add to help us be more well rounded. What can we do to score more points on a regular basis? All speculative obviously, and more future thinking than now because we can’t change what’s already happening. But these numbers worry me a bit for our playoff hopes, because the NFC North, and the West have some pretty good teams and I could see both of those divisions sending two teams to the playoffs. Just thought that was an interesting number when it caught my eye. What say you, you ole miserable panther fans?
