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...

      Updated 2025 draft order

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      Yes, hence the "don't get fixated." When QB needy becomes QB desperate, you trade up to get Bryce Young.  Did we trade up to get Cam? Did we have to do any draft magic to get Jake? How about Steve Beuerlein? There is more than one way to skin this cat so being desperate and stupid isn't going to do anything but fail over and over.  Just like it did with Bryce.

      Dan Morgan’s first offseason is better than any of Fitterers by a mile. Really hope we invest in defense heavily in the draft. Run first teams can’t survive with a horrible defense.
