Delhomme has new deal

Trim the fat? Nothing says trimming the fat like paying a washed-up QB that much money. Jake IS the fat. He's the cancer plaguing this organization.

Also, why do people keep saying this is just a "cap move"? Again, you don't give someone $20 million if it's just a "cap move".

i agree...jake can start here fine..but 20 million up front..idk.we will know next year..if this was worth it...if anything what does this say about matt moore..and his chance to start..this contract does not say..jake start 2 more years and moore takes over..this says he is our QB to he is 38..moore will be too old to be a first time starter to me..seeing as his contract is up next year.

First of all, this is not rewarding Delhomme for one bad playoff game - anyone who thinks that is a moron.

The guy is a proven winner in this league and this is a cap move... 42.5 for 5 years with 20 guaranteed takes his cap hit down from 11 to roughly 5 if I understand how these things work.

This means we just found an extra 6 million in cap space today... I don't think we would make this kind of move unless we were planning on either a) signing a first round pick or B) pursuing some sort of FA signing or trade.

$20 million guaranteed is a cap move. LOLOLOL

Now we could be on to something here. Good point.

You're never too old to start at quarterback for the Panthers. They plan on having Jake until he's 40 and they signed 90-year-old Vinny T.

1) How much was jake scheduled to get this year? 12 million?

2) 20 million guaranteed over 5 years = 4 million dollar cap hit per year.

It's a cap move. :troll:

    • Immediately cast blame? We had been talking about the bad throws to Hunter (the missed TDs and hospital ball) for days leading up to that injury report.   And yeah, the rib injury then becomes something to point out.  and you are getting desperate with this projected extremism.  No one  said you should never throw seams.  I shared with you an article after you scoffed at seams being routes you can get hung out to dry on….and it was the best of the best talking about the dangers of those routes.   And they talked about it because they threw them a lot and there dudes were at risk so the throws really matter.  Because you can hurt your receivers.  we disagree, cool.  I got a pro Bryce former NFL QB calling it a hospital ball and bad throw.  So I got a plus +1 making my argument.  Find a QB that backs your take. 
    • You exclusively highlighted Hunter's name on the injury report and then immediately cast blame. I've pointed out that this wasn't the hospital ball you claim it to be while also acknowledging that there could have been another option to target instead of Renfrow. By everything you've expressed here, you don't think seam routes should ever be thrown. I don't know how that helps the already struggling offense, but I do know that it would make it even worse than it already is. Scapegoating never has and never will solve anything. Tell you what: Try not blaming Bryce or casting shade his way for the entire week after Arizona and instead look at the other 21 starters and assess what they're doing (again, without shading Bryce). I'll join you and refrain from exploring what the rest of the team is doing and will focus solely on what Bryce needs to do better. Deal? This is a sincere peace offering to allow us to explore the other's perspective and perhaps be even more informed football fans.
    • TMac PI throw was a TD too.  Bryce just drastically under threw it.  Renfrow and TMac set themselves up to BOTH have great days.   the story of last of no one was open…..isn’t a defense the Bryce Young defenders can use so far this year
