Fox willing to bench Jake

That's good news, at least.

There are a few realities for this season:

1) Fox is going to be the head coach through the end of the season, no matter how poorly the Panthers play.

2) Fox will be incredibly stubborn and shows that off to the media.

However, Fox has benched QBs in the past. He is stubborn, but he is not unmovable. I think that even he is starting to realize Jake may not be the guy.

Of course, I think it's just as likely Jake starts and throws no passes next game. :(

I can't imagine Feely starting over Moore... Give the kid a chance, he can't do worse...

If Fox doesn't make a change, it's more than obvious that he is going to be stubborn until the end to save face... I don't know how that makes sense, but being stubborn often does.

Agreed, Moore certainly won't do any worse than Jake.

We may as well let him get real game time in, so we can see if we can use him as a starter next year.(while we groom a QB we hopefully draft)

He's said almost the exact same thing at least a couple of other times already this season. I have no doubt that he'll start against....Arizona. Oh God, Arizona. This could get ugly if Jake starts yet again.

I am almost positive you are wrong. I know for a fact that last week, Fox emphasized that Jake was his starter. The same was true after week 1. I am unsure of the other weeks, though I doubt it would have come up against Atlanta.

Fairly sure this is the first time we've had him say anything like that this season...

      Very Cool Rookie Stats Here

      By Hoenheim · Posted

      It may seem like our rookies have fairly low yards. But If you combine the yards for Coker,  Legette, and J.Sanders, you get 800 which is more than Neighbors or BTJ.  Also Coker is the only UDFA on this list the fact that he's on any kind of top list as UDFA makes him arguably our best move this off season for the price we paid to get him. Slam Dunk off-season by Dan Morgan. Especially if Brooks shows us something this season. We've already seen Trevin Wallace doing some good things. Getting anything out of Smith Wade or Crumedy would be a bonus. Rarely do 5th to 7th Rounders work out. In a sort of strange way that Michigan LB we drafted in the 7th got us a serviceable backup CB in Mike Jackson. So there's that too. Imagine if Morgan has just as good as of an off-season before the 2025 season for the defensive side of the ball.

      Cam Newton says being "erased" by panthers has hurt his feelings..

      By mav1234 · Posted

      I love Cam, and want the org to celebrate him, but they've told him why things are how they are (he isn't retired) and he says he just isn't going to and expects them not to care... I get he's never playing again, but just sign the papers to retire and call their bluff...

      Luvu & Chinn

      By Panthering · Posted

      I'm happy those 2 are finding success elsewhere. Chinn never lived up to the hype after his rookie season and Luvu just wanted to go play in Dan Quinn's defense that suits him perfectly. I can't hate on that.
