One coach, one player won't cripple Panthers

Panthers Huddle - Eugene Robinson discusses Matt Moore.

Per PFT

What does everyone think about this? If Fox and Hurney are here next year, does Jake deserve a chance to compete in training camp for the starting role? What if training camp and practice does not translate to success in a game? Should we move forward from this chapter? Is this typical company talk for someone that is owed almost 13 million?

1 and 1a: Carolina QB Jake Delhomme and DE Julius Peppers

Fox Sports Alex Marvez

"The above is a detailed way of saying the Panthers are on the hook for almost $13M guaranteed to Delhomme, a player who will be 35 in January and whose contract they could have let expire at the end of this season with no future obligation."

"The Delhomme contract proves the mantra that all NFL front offices realize at different times: Some of the best deals made are the ones that are not made."

National Football Post- Andrew Brandt

We all the talk of a regime change for 2010, I thought this would be an interesting link. I particularly like the wins and losses columns.

On the part of the offense that needs to get better:

"It is kind of hard. You want to say the passing game but you don’t want to take away from what is going well. But if you don’t address it at some point it is going to come back and haunt you and the passing game has came back and haunted us because sometimes we just go with what is working and not necessarily fix or attempt to fix to improve the passing game."

Whether he is buying the New Orleans Saints and their receivers:

"You don’t really have to buy anything. They are doing a great job. Great receivers? I wouldn’t go there. I am just being… Marques Colston is a good receiver but…Henderson, those guys got Drew Brees throwing to them. You don’t really…You sneeze good and turn around Drew Brees is really just square in between their numbers. I am not hatin’ but I think honestly I have watched those guys run routes and they don’t necessarily have to run the best routes because their quarterback is ridiculous."

"Whether he is going to be in Carolina in the years to come:

"My contract goes to 2012 but I also know that this is a business and it is not personal. Whatever happens happens. I am not saying that I don’t want to leave and I am not saying that I want to stay but it is really not up to me. I don’t really call the shots to that extent. I know I probably have six good years left in these short, squatty legs. I will see wherever God wants me to play so I am going to go and my family is going to come with me and they are going to be happy."

Per Steve Reed- Carolina Growl

Truth be told, in Fox's world that’s a perfect blueprint for success.
Still, some can’t understand why Fox remains so loyal to Delhomme, whose interceptions drive fans crazy. To comprehend that, it’s first necessary to understand what Fox looks for in a quarterback. Earlier this week, I asked him just that question.
His reply?
"The way I look at it, I think one of the most important qualities is a guy that's got some command, got some leadership," Fox said. "The second thing would be smarts. And third might be how he throws and all those measurable things. That's how I look at the quarterback position. Everybody's different. I feel like Jake's all those, and he's won a lot of games."

Reeder's Take

This is how bad it is. How embaressing for our organization, yet this is how they are now viewed outside of Charlotte. Caution- this is torture!

"The Panthers need to do something dramatic if they want to have any chance of salvaging this season."

"The Panthers have to win Monday night -- and go on and make the playoffs -- or else they’re going to suddenly be an interesting team to follow, for all the wrong reasons."

Darin Gantt discusses the 09 Panthers.

Seems like we need players with a nasty streak!

I never get tired of this no matter who the team is! Funny stuff.
