A Possible Jake Delhomme Situation This Season...


Lone Buc Fan

Recommended Posts

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.

pretty much.

problems lie elsewhere, jake doesn't get pulled. problems are legitimately jake's fault...he gets the rodney peete treatment.

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.

    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.  
    • Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.
    • Totally possible imo, I also caught that snippet from Morgan where he said “If” we sign him. The lack of competition says otherwise tho 🤷‍♂️
