A Possible Jake Delhomme Situation This Season...

This is hypothetical of course and just pertains to this scenario, trying to see what kind of opinions there are..

Say, if the Panthers start the season losing 5 of their first 7 games. With all 3 quarterbacks being in their contract year, do the Panters pull the plug on Jake and end his run as the starting Panther QB... in hopes that the younger guys (Matt Moore and Josh McCown) will pan out for the Panthers at a cheaper price.

Should the plug be pulled on Jake in this type of situation, or do you stick with the guy who has put you in multiple playoff spots?

For Fox to pull Jake he would have to see that Jake isn't making the right reads, throwing the ball poorly, and not audiblizing, etc. He would have dropped off his usual production and clearly there would have to be something wrong. As fans we look at the result of the play and say whose fault it was. As coaches they look at what was called and what should have happened and they evaluate whether it was executed properly. That way they can better establish not only what did happen but what should have happened and why it didn't happen.

Bless you for speaking the truth.

Alright, was curious due to the NFC Championship and not being pulled out during that game. Trying to see the consensus on what people think should be the right move if this were to happen.

There was no way Jake was going to be pulled from the NFC Championship. He wasn't even playing. That's the sort of knowledge we've come to expect from Buc fans.

Unless, of course, the other QBs on the roster are viewed as significantly lesser options. Why make the change if you expect it to make a bad day worse?

this is why you were banned in the first place, could you do a topic that was a little less flame bait???

and the question wouldn't be considered flame bait if it was asked in a different way or if it were asked by a Panthers fan, but because your a bucs fan and because how you asked it, it comes across as flame bait.

      TE group

      What you are saying isn't always true and I'll give you several examples to demonstrate this. 1) The best player on the board at the end of in round 1 by all consensus is RB (top 15 player in draft who slips b/c of the devaluation of the RB position). Your team is in desperate need of a LT because the current one is getting your QB killed. You already have a serviceable RB in place. The LT has a 2nd round grade and you have the first pick on day 2 of the draft Who do you choose? 2) Your run defense was abysmal the previous season. A DT in round 2 does not provide much in terms of pass rush, but most reports have him rated as the best pure run stuffing DT in the draft. The two highest rated players on your board at the time are a TE and tweener at OLB/DE who slipped into round 2 after a run on WR's. Who do you choose? 3) Your pass rush rush is solid across the board. You even have guy coming off of the bench to provide production. Your secondary in below average. No Safety on the roster is a difference maker and as a unit the squad doesn't have an INT. The highest rated player on the board is a DE. The 5th highest rated player on the board is a an intelligent ball hawking Safety. Which player would make the team immediately better?  1) I think the BPA logic applies when your team is solid across the board and you can afford to draft for depth 2) I think it also applies when your team stinks and any solid player will be an immediate upgrade over what you already have. I agree that you should NEVER reach for a player when you are need at a position like we did for Bryce Young. But I also think if there's is a player on the board that will fill a glaring weakness you need to take him even if a player with a higher over all ranking is available at another position (which isn't a need)

      Bryce Young excels at dividing Panthers fans. That seems to be what he's best at.
