I was reminded of the lone Randy Fasani start a few years ago against Tampa Bay. That at the time was the worst performance that I had seen from an NFL QB. Considering the situation and what was at stake, I would say that Jake choked on the grandest scale, and that might have been the worst game I have ever seen.

Trust Jake Delhomme?

That was the poorest performance I've ever seen from an NFL QB.

I do not see how the players can have ANY confidence in him now.

A fellow by the name of Steve Smith says he does, and he's not alone.

The team doesn't see things the way fans do, nor should they.

I've questioned whether he should come back, but if the coaches and his teammates are still firmly behind him after the disaster they saw last night, then his respect in the locker room must be off the charts.

Fan opinions will mean nothing in this discussion.

I don't trust Davidson to do what got the team where they are (were)anymore. I swear these coaches out think themselves. And think they have to change instead of dancing with the one that brought you. I really hope Davidson learned his lesson and when the passing game isn't working.....

RUN THE DAMN BALL!

Bye weeks do not treat Jake or the team well. Never have, never will. If I'm Fox I learn from this and try NOT to get a bye week in the postseason ever again while Jake is at the helm. A #3/4 seed is the best spot for us to be in..

Why some other team has bye week can keep rolling, not us?

Anyone who has watched the Panthers since 03 knows that Delhomme is going to have these types of games. It's just the type of player he is. Keeping him as your #1 is setting yourself up for the risk of having him plunk just such a performance down in the playoffs. Until John Fox decides it isn't worth the gamble, it's a coin flip as to whether Delhomme is going to play well or not. More times than not, Delhomme plays well. This season, we had an awesome ground game and were even able to cover for him when he took a big poo. In the one-and-done playoffs he's a risk. He always will be. Thing is, I have zero confidence in a John Fox staff being able to groom any young player to do any better than what Delhomme does.

That's gospel spoken right there! Couldn't agree more. A tougher defense would help to nullify the one of the "two jakes" we always hope won't show up but sometimes does...like last night!

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Where did I once say we should draft him because he's a projected Top 5 pick?   That's one of my many problems with you, your reading comprehension skills are very poor (and/or you just don't care to use your brain, one of the two).  I solely used that to point out that me pushing T-Mac isn't some absurd homerism, that at least I'm pushing someone who is deserving of a Top 5 draft pick. And despite me explaining it to you numerous times, you still seem to not grasp how QB's get placed in mock drafts vs draft grades.  They are treated entirely different in mock drafts to any other position, because of how teams generally treat them in the draft because of how important the position is. Literally any other position except QB, mock drafts generally follow draft grades with some team needs factored in.  But with QB's, draft grades are generally disregarded and they ALWAYS put a few QB's at the very top of the draft, because that's just usually what happens.  The exact same thing happened in 2022 with guys like Pickett and Willis widely being Top 10 picks in mock drafts, only for Pickett to fall to what, around 20?, and Willis going in the 2nd round (and even being the 3rd QB if I remember correctly too). The overwhelming majority of draft experts are saying there isn't a high first round grade on these QB's, but they still get mocked there because they're trying to predict how the draft will actually go. That's been my point the entire time, reaching for a QB in a bad QB draft when you have a roster as depleted of talent as ours, does not tend to work out well. And I've never said I'm not open to other players, I've very explicitly said that if a QB or DE stands out come draft time, I'm open to that discussion.  That I'd be open to Hunter as a CB but I prefer a WR over a CB at the top of the draft.  But we're also not talking about the 15th pick here where there could realistically be all sorts of possible picks to discuss.  With the first pick, there really would only be a small handful of options, T-Mac is head and shoulders above any other given our current roster and state of the franchise in general.

      TMac is good, but he isn't pick 1 on a WR good.  Last year he would be below Nabers and Williams.  This year you could argue Hunter is the better WR.  WR at 1 better be a Calvin Johnson not a WR that disappears some games in college...

      So because he's a projected top 5 pick he's should be the guy we draft.   Yet you say the other 2 QBs who are projected top 5 picks are not worth it because you think they aren't that good.   That's my problem with you. You just seem to only care about Tmac. I have yet to see you suggest anyone outside of Tmac. At least I'm open to other prospects.
