Flacco looks good.

Just think we passed him up in the draft last year. I hear from you guys that they is no quarterbacks out there to replace Jake. There went 1. Oh yeah we passed on Quinn in a previous draft too. I could prolly sit and think of other qb's we passed on. If great receivers makes quarterbacks look medicore. Just think what our great receivers would do with a medicore quarterback that will protect the ball. I feel as if John Fox has same issues like Lovie Smith a few years ago. We are 10 and 4 and Jake is our quarterback crap. I love carolina but Jake isnt our answer.

Yet we passed him for the Panthers starting RT and RB who helped produce the best Running Back tandem (or one of them) in the NFL.

And our running back tandem was what in the playoffs? Not crap. We had to drop the run and go to the air when we got tied up in the first quarter.

And you label our Running Back tandem on a game that was poorly coached? If the Panthers had stayed with the run and not freaked out and started throwing, it could be a very different vibe around here.

If a bullfrog had wings, he wouldnt bump his a$$. If we had a quarterback we may have made it further in the playoffs.

I'm not downing our runningbacks. I think Williams is as exciting to watch as Petterson. My most memorable moment of our rookie Stewart last year was when he ran out of gas in the open field just short of the goal line.

it was a cramp, didn't run out of gas, if your talking bout the GB game of course. i just think people bash Jake too much, and your labeling him on one game, which turned out to be one really bad game.

I am speaking about one game? Jake has had 71 interceptions in 6 years with the panthers and only playing 3 games 2 years ago. I am talking about his career as a panther. Bash him? Yeah i WILL because he WILL NEVER get us a superbowl win. If anything he will only cost us. Oh yeah, He already did and will continue to do so!

List of quarterbacks that we could have had over Delhomme if we had ever looked to go in another direction:

Trent Edwards

Chad Pennington

Matt Cassel

Brett Favre

Michael Vick

Joe Flacco

Brady Quinn

Matt Schaub

Jay Cutler

Jason Campbell

Aaron Rodgers

Drew Brees

Kurt Warner

All of these quarterbacks are either better or about as good as Jake is only much younger that teams have either signed, drafted, or traded for since Jake Delhomme became our starting quarterback.

What if we didn't even make the playoffs? You don't know , we don't know.

With Jake as our quarterback and as interception prong as he has been over his career. It wouldnt have surprised me if we had not made the playoffs. I blame him for 3 of our 4 losses in the regular season.

    • I honestly didn't like trading up on the 2nd to draft a RB with a torn ACL. That didn't seem like a great move for this roster. But it wouldn't be a bad move if he proved to be a quality starter. But now signing Chuba to starter money on the hells of that? Yeah, that's significant roster building assets tied up in the RB position which has been a hallmark of the Panthers' roster building thought process over the years which has led to zero sustained success on the field.
    • But it's not a plug and play like teams were thinking.  Ask the Cowboys and the Bears thinking they were fine letting Montgomery walk.  Ask the Texans who had to trade for Mixon because their backfield held them back.  @Bear Handsbroke down the top running teams in the league and they have a very similar allocated of money/investments in the RB room.  It's a $15 million guaranteed contract over 4 years.  IF we are paying him the full 32 then he is playing very well and earning 8 plus million a year over 4 years.  I don't think we are doing the starter/backup scenario.  Our OC even said he has plays featuring both backs in the backfield.  We are trying to be a RB committee with a RB room that isn't that expensive compared to the league average.  IF Chuba plays to his top potential and we pay out all money he will average between Stevenson and Swift's average salary.  
    • I'm just reporting it, not getting excited.  That will no doubt go down with new contracts. But because we've been drafting so many busts, there's no one in house to extend lol.  Could be spent on a lot of known resources.
