Sports Illustrated is on something

It's considering QB as well, and after that offensive poofest a few months ago it's hard comparing Jake to other NFL QB's.

Second, why would you think SI researches anything ?

Agreed... I'm surprised we're at 11 given the fact that they're including the QB... overall I don't really disagree with the list too much... I don't think SD should be #1 and it kinda surprises me the NO is all the way down at #17...

SD deserves the spot as much as anyone.

Most of it is just bigmarket suckjobs tho.

Jake Delhomme will prove all doubters this season, I feel very confident his numbers will look like 07( before the injury )where he was in the top 3 in FF......God I hope so!!
I think he will have a good year as well. We will see. I figure I will wait and see while everyone continues to bash him. At this point there is nothing else to say. He has to play well this year and usually rises to the occasion. We will see what we see.

Yep, Jax should be #32. I wouldn't take David Garrard and MoJo as a duo over a helluva lot of the guys they have ranked before them. :rolleyes:

Good grief.

I am also very,very tired of media saying QBs are old at 32-33-34. They are POCKET PASSERS not runners like Ronnie Mexico for heaven's sake. They aren't YOUNG but they usually can play longer than other positions because it is their brains/game knowledge that get better as they get older and are very important to being an effective QB.

I'm hoping he starts off like he did in 07. Then bandwagon gets filled with SB talk. Then he struggles mid season and badwagon unloads.. Then he gets hot around game 12-13 and takes us on to win a superbowl. Then everyone praises him as the best panther QB ever. Then I spend the next month finding all the post where they were bashing him and throw it in their faces. Its how I plan on filling up my time after the probowl.

It's always good to have a plan!:D

I think Jake will be Jake in that he'll be a model of inconsistancy. The reason people have dogged him i.e. media-types is while he's typically been inconsistent his stint here in Carolina, he's always played well in the playoffs. He layed an egg; I'm not going to re-hatch that egg and that's the reason those folks are all over him and predicting his downfall.

When I said he'll be a model of inconsistancy, I mean he'll have several games with a 90 or higher passing rating with mabe a 100+ or two sprinkled in there. On the flip side, he's going to have a few 60 passer ratings with even a 50 or two mixed in.

That's Jake--like it or not. He's good enough to make our team playoff calibre, but we just better hope that the one or two rotten eggs doesn't come in the post season.

    • I think the book has been fairly written on Darnold, and by and large stays true. He can be rattled by pressure, and will lose his composure. If a team can get to him and have something go wrong in the plan, the mistakes and errors will pile up. Rams have a better offense, Seahawks sport a better defense. Should be a good 1.
    • Not a defense of him...an understanding of the problem. (something you seem to be lacking right now) 🙄 Bryce in a Canales offense is not an example of a stylistic mismatch, but I can give you one if that helps. When he was playing for the Panthers, Cam Newton sat under OC's running Coryell type offenses. Newton had a big arm and was a strong runner. He fit into that sort of attack very well. Then he goes to New England, where at the time they were running an Earhardt-Perkins system (similar to WCO In a lot of what they do but very different terminology). The Patriot offenses back then were heavily based on timing and rhythm style passing, not something that Newton was especially well suited for. So he washed out at New England, not because he had poor ability (his abilities had been on display here on a regular basis) but because he didn't fit what they wanted to do with their offense. I always go back to Jeff Garcia as one of the prime examples of this issue. Garcia in a WCO looked like a world beater. Put him in any other scheme though...yikes!  So again, Young's issues here have nothing to do with any failure to mesh with Canales. Hell, is say Canales has actually done pretty well at adapting his system to who he has rather than trying to jam square pegs into round holes. Again, it doesn't take an elite level of football knowledge to get this. It's pretty basic. But if you're not even capable of understanding what the real problem is, how are you going to know you to find the right solution? 🤔
