"I'm going to get asked that question in training camp, I'm going to get asked that question leading up to the first game, and if I have a bad game this year, that's going to be brought up, but you know what?" Delhomme told Mike Reiss of the Boston Globe. "It's part of the deal. It's part of the contract I signed in third grade to play quarterback. I didn't play well and I'm the first one to admit it.

I just read this on PFT too... this is not anything new is it? Jake has been saying this same thing since right after the game... he's owned up to his play, everything he says is right... the very next bad play, bad game, interception, turnover, whatever, the media hounds will be all over him... he's just got to deal with it.

Yes, he took the blame for the entire loss even though the Panthers D let Fitzgerald run wild through them for over 2 quarters.

Yes he did. He's willing, as the leader of the team, to take the blame when the team falters. If you can name five starting QB's who willingly and intentionally throw themselves under the bus in the name of their team mates then I will show you five NFL teams who are in pretty damn good shape.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By Icege · Posted

      I really appreciate Bill explaining his methodology here because that gives interested parties a chance to try and recreate the results themselves. I believe that it's safe to assume that despite emphasis being placed on WRs that Chuba Hubbard is one of the Panthers' top-5 weapons. Considering targets, yardage, receptions, etc... Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette are also on the list. Jalen Coker's success might have snuck him in there as well. I can't draw a conclusion on who #5 is though. I've narrowed it down to Diontae Johnson, David Moore, Ja'Tavion Sanders, and possibly Rico Dowdle if they're taking into account his production for the Cowboys in 2024.

      Unfortunately business is business especially when there are large sums of money on the table. Goes the same for player and ownership. Does not make it right either way.  Why would he not want to play for the niners? Closer to home with a team that has a chance of delivering a SB trophy.

      Orlov Complaining About Time W/Hurricanes

      By Panthers Fan 69 · Posted

      I don’t know if it’s him bad mouthing his former situation in public or my pettiness but either way I’m not a fan. Dude was on playoff teams getting paid millions to entertain. I’m not better that because and I am better than that. You don’t bad mouth your former employer in public. Esp after getting over paid and two, poor little Russian baby didn’t get the playing spot he wanted. Rod had him exactly where is was supposed to be.  He had a mean lip check and did defend our players. Specifically the devils game around Christmas where is our Haula on his ass. Cool. Thank you. But don’t talk poo about us. Because it make you look like Haula.    “need to get as far away as possible”. fug off. Didn’t see Burnsy bad mouthing and his play dropped off too.    sorry, but Orlov doesn’t get a pass from me. See you twice a year…
