Gil Brandt recognizes Matt Moore's potential

Recommended Posts

In a NFL.com live chat going on right now, when asked about Jimmy Clausen, Gil Brandt said,

"Clausen has a chance to compete with Matt Moore for the starting QB job in Carolina. His experience under Charlie Weis gives him a good idea of NFL offenses, and that helps. But if you look at what Moore did late in the season last year, he could be better than people think."

This is one of the first guys I've seen to actually see that Matt Moore has a lot more to offer than what people think.

Im just happy to know that whoever our QB is, he'll actually be the best one starting and not starting only because of loyalty.

I'm happy w/ that also...

however, I am not certain the QB who gives us the best chance to win......will be the starting QB. Obviosuly, Fox can be questioned now on such decisions.

i also think moore has alot of potential as does clausen, right now this is a win/win scenario for us. we get to find out which is better and maybe use the other as trade bait at some point. if moore rips it up ala matt cassell we could still franchise him and trade him for a pick in next years draft. if we could get a 2nd or 3rd round pick for someone who went undrafted is also a win for us

Fox has no loyalty to either of these guys and might not be here next year so i think he will play the best QB

IMO the reason Moore is not signed already is because they want to make sure he dose not pull a Delhomme and were stuck with him.

Not signed? Do you mean not signed long-term? :confused:

The flipside is that if he's a huge success, he'll be expensive to keep.

Of course, it strikes that possibility could be another factor behind the drafting of Claussen.

    • Bryce has had this story of being a great leader and a person who his teammates love.  Coaches and media all said some form of after talking with Bryce or spending time with him and it was obvious the type of person and leader he was.  I don't see it from his demeanor and public persona but he might be the type of guy who's much different in person.  With so many people saying some version of this I hope the fans get a glimpse of it some time.
    • Auburn literally could've had 20+ fouls in that half. Hate playing teams like this. They picked up 5-6 quick ones then like always happens the refs start to get whistle shy not wanting to call a foul every possession and they start getting away with murder. The way they call the games encourages this type of play. If they keep fouling just keep calling it. 
    • I think last year actually set him back.  Our interior online was one of the worst I've seen.  Combine that with Frank archaic system and about 10 other things and then Canales comes in and implements his system regardless who the players were. A lot of coaches think their system can work with any player and don't do any or as much as they should with tailoring it to fit the player.  Canales admitted that pretty much in our first game but when he scaled it back and Bryce still looked horrible so he was benched.  That move right there is one of the big things that has sold me on Canales.  I judge him based on what he's done since he was renamed the starter.  I probably need to give him a little more rope because it probably seemed in his first game like it was just like last year.  Another new coach with his system and Bryce just went along.  Both the coach and the player are adapting to each other and I think that we are back, baby!!!!  It's just like Drew Brees and Sean Payton except without the mole and the butthole lips.
