Jake is still the man....

I will be honest when I was watching the game, I was calling for his head. As I thought about it, imagine how the guy feels. He has done so much for this franchise. Provided the spark when we needed it. He gave us good memories. Honestly we have to start looking for a QB. No I am not saying bench him next year but at least bring in someone capable or maybe someone who will start. After last night, I had mixed feelings. The best run game in panther's history got abandoned. why? we are averaging what, 6 ypc. We need to draft a pass rusher.Eventhough pep is pep, he can't do it all by himself. Our play calling outright sucked. I guess I was more embarassed than anything else. We will get back but this will be a long off season I can tell ya that

Jake is a great guy, but I think it's time to look at another option. I'm not saying cut him, but I'm tired of Fox putting the game in his hands. When he makes one mistake, he can't get over it. You can't do that in the NFL.

Oh really?

How about all those 4th quarter comebacks?

How'd that work out for you?

I don't disagree with that. That's what we did with David Carr, and Jake played great through the first three games before he was injured.

Jake still has it in him to take us to the Superbowl, though.

Yeah, he had the sh*ttiest game that he has ever had. Yes, I felt physically sick after the 5th interception. But he is still my guy.

Some of you have sworn him off. Others have burned his jersey in a wheel barrow ( dude, for real...). Not me. When I got home, i took my jersey off off, shook my head, and hung it up. I haven't forgotten what all number 17 has done for us. I'm not going to bail on him now.

If you feel the same way I do, post away. If you hate the guy and wanna see him gone, please post in the numerous other threads about how awful he is.

GO JAKE GO!

agreed!

still my qb.....too many other mistakes in that game to place all blame on him.

Half the time he's the reason we need a comeback in the first place. Yay?

So you're mad that he didn't win it for us last night, and you're mad that his wins aren't good enough for you?

That's the feeling I get from a lot of the Jake haters.

They either want a blowout, or they're going to say that Jake sucks. If he wins, he's not winning well enough.

I will share my feeling about Jake at weeks end....

Don't do that! This is going to be the longest week ever now!

Tell me nowwww!

Yeah, it's nice and all. Jake has won us plenty of games, but the problem is he is too inconsistent and makes bad reads. How many 4th quarter comebacks has Steve Smith contributed too? Jake locks in and it's done. You cannot win a SB with inconsistent games like this.

Here are the facts. Jake threw less INTs this year then in our SB year. Like I always said he is not a great QB but the coaching staff should know this a like someone else said give him a damn run game! I mean we didnt even put him in the Shotgun when it was clear we let the run game go. This was a failure of our coach staff that did not adjust worth a Damn.

    • Exactly the type of thing he would have done here. The excuse people were stannin’ so hard claiming he would have looked just as bad. Just not true. 
    • Yes and there aren't 32 starting QBs in the league either. Too many teams and too many games. The NFL has regressed over the years and game quality is lacking. The other leagues are supposed to be farm leagues but it doesn't matter. You just won't have 32 no matter what they do. The move to super athletes playing QB at all levels has lead to this. It used to be those guys played other positions but now they are QBs who can't really QB.  It has a trickle down effect too. OL can't block because they never had to. The fact that in today's game your QB must be able to run at least a little to survive is evidence of this as well. IMO they have ruined the game same as with the NBA. It's been simplified to the point of being boring.  Just look at the top 10 this season. Patrick Mahomes (Chiefs) Joe Burrow (Bengals) Josh Allen (Bills) Lamar Jackson (Ravens) Dak Prescott (Cowboys) Jalen Hurts (Eagles) Brock Purdy (49ers) Jordan Love (Packers) Justin Herbert (Chargers) Matthew Stafford (Rams) Once we get to number 5 the stats look like this: 167 262 1,845 63.7 7.0 10 8 65 18 84.5   47.5   10 TDs and 8 INTs??? At number 5??? There was a time not that long ago that he wouldn't even be a starter.   
    • I'm not convinced that the NFL is any better or worse at developing QBs now than they were 20 years ago.  I mean I'm sure there are some developmental issues at play, just not sure it is any different than it has been. The biggest difference IMO is that NFL teams are waaaaaaaay more willing to invest a 1st round pick into a QB now than they were 15-20 years ago.  A guy like Colin Kaepernick would probably be a top 5 pick in 2025, whereas he went in the 2nd in 2011.  Would a guy like Trey Lance go top 3 in 2010?  Hell no.  Look at Russell Wilson - he didn't go until the 3rd round.  The standard for being a 1st round QB has dropped. So it may seem like we're seeing more high-profile busts at the position, but we're also seeing teams reach for QBs way more than they have in the past.  Someone with Anthony Richardson's college resume doesn't go in the top 3 20 years ago.
