Come on now... There is no one that has done more for this team (good and bad) than Jake Delhomme.

You have to be a franchise QB to earn that right, he was, and he did.

Years from now we all will remember how bad he played for us, but even more we will remember the 18 come from behind wins, the Super Bowl run, the long bombs to Smitty, and the joy that Cajun brought to the Carolinas...

Its easy to say without him we would have found someone to do the same, but with teams like the lions, browns, bills, dolphins, ect still searching for that "type" of guy-- It looks like we were pretty lucky..

I doubt he is finished yet, its not in his personality to quit.

Folks said the same things about Warner 5 years ago as they do jake now, I dont know if Jake will finish as strong but I am sure he will finish stronger than most think...

And like with Warner, here's hoping he's on another team when he rekindles his career.

He is not the best QB this team has had. We had a guy named Steve who did more with less.

nah that team had a HOF tight end, a very good, young muhsin muhammad (who has VERY surprising career stats) and a pre malpractice patrick jeffers

I agree with you. He's still the best QB this franchise has ever had. Sure, I hope Moore surpasses that by a lot, but as it stands right now, Jake is on top. He does deserve better. I don't want him to start again but maybe he could find a niche somewhere else.

Same here. Shame he isn't the same anymore. I would like to thank him for the memories during our Superbowl run & the 2nd Playoffs run under him before we lost to the Seahawks. And of course, some of our 4th Q comebacks last season (like the Chargers game ending TD to Rosario). :)

      Watching games this year again and Bryce missed a wide open XL many times and some of them were in the endzone. I get the kid has mental lapses and hasn't broke out yet, but this is year three on a rookie deal! Cutting bait now is too early. If he hasn't gained anymore trust from his QB, posted any highlights, little production, or outright gets beat out then we can talk movement.

      Samesies   I truly may just cash completely out of Panther football if we give him a long term deal that isnt necessary.  I have watched NFL for 50 years now and I can without a shadow of a doubt say you cannot win consistently with BY.  Way too many limitations to deal with.   I may come back around in 3 years when the inevitable happens and all parties are either cut and/or fired.  Giving him a deal before this season so you hopefully can get him cheaper in case he "blows up" or if you truly believe that he will has to be the most moronic decision a gm can make when the evidence is laid before you with different players

      This is the one! I was at that game and all KB had to do was lay down on the corner after the pick or make an obvious tag while he was down. He had already ran a lazy route. Then if Cam would've just walked to the sideline like most elite QBs instead of trying to make the tackle.  A lot of people bring up the TJ Watt hit, but he just reaggravated a bunch of scar tissue from that play. And every Cam hater said that the running did him in and it was a dive tackle attempt on an interception that initially began the shoulder deterioration. He still went to New England later and would've got them in the playoffs had their A team not sat out the covid year. We quit on him too early. But hey how good was Teddy? Am I right?
