Crushing Panthers' loss leaves Jake 'almost numb'

[Rod Butsecks]

(By Charles Chandler, [email protected]) There are ugly losses, when superb opportunities are inexplicably squandered against a lesser opponent, and there there's what happened Sunday at Bank of America Stadium. p/ The Carolina Panthers dominated the Buffalo Bills in yardage (425-167) and first downs (20-9), but lost big where it counted the most, providing resounding evidence for the validity of coach John Fox's oft-repeated phrase stats are for losers.

It's crazy how Jake can blow so many games for us yet the team still defends him..must have dirt on everyone just like Crossman

"I've got faith in our backups, but (making a change) seems like a break-glass-and-pull-the-handle type of thing if you do that," said Gross. "That's not my call. But Jake's my guy. I have faith in him."

Um, we're 2-4 with the Saints looking like they'll win the division with ease, and Atlanta seems poised to grab a wildcard. I'd rather break the glass now than slowly burn over the rest of the season.

How about the loss leaving Jake on the bench?
