Warner: Jake will get through it


Kevin Greene

Recommended Posts

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kurt Warner, a former teammate of the Panthers' Jake Delhomme, had this take on Delhomme's recent struggles Wednesday afternoon during a conference call:

"I went through some tough stretches where it seemed like everything went against me. Even though it wasn't always me -- it seemed like every tipped ball got intercepted, every time there was a miscommunication between me and somebody, it was intercepted. Every time I got hit, the ball popped out. Everything spiraled down hill.

Warner did look done in NY. I can't think of anyone, including myself, that didn't write him off.

That being said, even in the happiest situation Jake needs to sit before he can start again. He'd got things he simply can't work out while he's on the job. He's very likely the biggest loser in Fox's decision.

Agreed, Warner out of the Mike Martz offense looked like he was ready to go back to stocking grocery shelves.

The difference of course is Warner was a former NFL and Super Bowl MVP and has twice the skills Jake ever had.

In this case however it's probably safe to write Jake off and discount a renaissance along the lines of Kurt Warner.

Very safe.

Still, we can take some small comfort in the fact that if you traveled back in time both the coach and QB of that Giants team looked destined for the scrap heap of NFL history.

    • I don't think a month goes by that I don't stop for a second and feel hatred for Fitt. Brought trashed QBs here, kept a bad roster 24/7, passed on 2 first round picks and a second round pick for Burns, traded a generational RB, and spent the farm on a runty QB who has bad mechanics and a noodle arm. And I'm not even listing everything he screwed up. And I said he was screwing up at the time, not hindsight 20/20. He was AWFUL. Now look what we have to show for it. A bottom 3 team and a QB who only looks good against teams that are somehow worse than us. I could walk away from this franchise for the next two seasons and I wouldn't miss anything notable or worthwhile. We had Fitt lovers on this board praising him, but I'm not going to call those fans out. It's water under the bridge now. It's over. Aim for a turnaround 2026 once the roster is rebuilt. 
    • I don't think he was too small. He was about 220 and they played him there alot his rookie year when he was 2nd place DROY. Maybe another 10 pounds would have helped, but not absolutely necessary.
