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.

      JJ Jansen on tanking

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      It can happen but it’s nothing like the NBA. One player doesn’t make the difference in the NFL that one player can in the NBA. Also, there are just not the same amount of trades and even opportunities. Because the NFL isn’t just one stud away, you don’t get a lot of opportunities like Miami did with Tua or the Jets did with Zach Wilson. Both teams got multiple 1sts for players they traded (Jets had 5 1sts in 2021-2022 and Miami had 5 1sts in 2020-2021) and both got top 5 picks to select a QB. They both made some good and bad picks but Miami turned Tua into multiple playoff appearances even though Tua isn’t elite. Wilson was just so bad that the Jets still sucked. We had our opportunity in 2022 where we would have had 6 1sts and 4 2nds in 2023-2025 and probably had a top 5 pick in 2023 or 2024 for a QB without trading up. Unfortunately, Fitterer didn’t have the foresight to realize a full rebuild was necessary and when a team offers you 2 1sts and a 2nd for a non-QB like Tunsil and Burns, you take it. One thing I wish trades had in the NFL that they have in the NBA is protected picks. A moron like Fitterer could have a top 5 protected pick so his terrible GMing doesn’t accidentally give the Bears the #1 overall pick because the moron Fitterer incorrectly thought we were 1 player away from the playoffs.

      Anyone that believes getting a couple late season wins to end the season at 4-13 while picking 9th in each round, other than 2-15 with the 1st pick in each round is not being realistic.  It happens nearly every other year, Jags gave the browns a insane package to move from 2nd to 5th. If not for late season pointless/everyone forgets late season wins the Panthers would have gotten that franchise changing package. Not to mention Panthers would have had Herbo and Sewell in other years, but nope. Do I need to bring up da bears??? The goal is long term winning in order to make the playoffs, one season to tank could spark it with a Burrow that's gets sacked 60 times on the way to a SB.  I want to win as bad as anyone, but the second the Panthers are eliminated from playoff contention, the ONLY solution is to lose the remaining games to gain a better chance to never do that again. No other answer.
