What exactly happened to Jake Delhomme?

He was an average QB who would play great four or five times a year, then he had surgery that turned him into a bad QB who would play average four of five times a year. The nail in the coffin is his disaster of a game against AZ in the playoffs, a younger player may have been able to shake that game off but Jake was done. He might be able to serve as a backup but I don’t think he will ever be able to get his confidence back.

even in his good years there were many times he'd throw the ball and I'd hold my breath...Smitty usually came up with it...until lately. that said, he gave the team and panthers fans some great moments, but his time has come and gone here. On to winning.

Jake was never that good to begin with. Here was average with "intangibles" which suited John Fox's philosophy. But as the league changed to a QB-driven league, Delhomme got exposed more and more. The Arizona game changed Delhomme...he said so in his conference. He tried to change his whole approach to the game and turned into the horrible QB we all love to bash.

      Ward 1, Hunter, maybe 2. Per McShay

      Todd McShay @McShay13 · Follow So the @Titans have respectfully cancelled private workouts with Travis Hunter and Shedeur Sanders, making it all but official they will take Cam Ward No. 1. And now I’m starting to hear more and more about Hunter to Cleveland at No. 2. That would mean Abdul Carter vs. Shedeur Show more 2:19 PM · Apr 5, 2025

      I'm seeing Walker in many, if not MOST, of the more recent mocks for the Panthers.  Here's my problem, He's not a tackling machine and that's what you want out of an ILB.  He's a 'tweener.  Are we playing him inside or outside?  Sack production is 'meh' for the outside, not so much a QB terror  and inside he's not a ball hound.   This is culminating to be a typical Panthers pick.  You see how 'tweeners end up here with the mismanagement of Jeremy Chinn.

      Yes, this same logic could also be used for every player on our roster and practice squad. I wouldn't include basically any of them in the "potential core player" category as I basically outlined it. I don't see him that way because he was a rotational player and I am not sure he will be more than that here.  If I am wrong and he really flourishes here, great. That contract will make a lot more sense and I will have more faith in Dan & Co.
