So...If Jimmy sucks....then what?

[Awesomeness!!]

I really don't think Jimmy is the long term answer. He can manage us to some Ws...but Charlie Batch can do that poo. He doesn't seem to be a guy that can take over, and win on command. Neither was Moore...and thats why we're 0-2. So I think he will be alright, for now, but to play devils advocate, lets say he sucks balls. Not just regular ol balls like Moore, but big, smelly, dangling balls. What does Fox do? Go back to Moore? Pike? ARMANTI? Stick with Clausen? What do you think?

Not-Awesomeness's real name is Gaylord Focker.

Not that there is anything to make you think he can't...

...We would simply reload the offense with the new coaching staff.

If Jimmy sucks it up majorly then he'll probably just go back to Moore.. and by suck majorly I mean throwing more interceptions than completions, constant fumbles, things of that nature. I'm pretty sure Fox won't be starting Pike this season at all, regardless of what happens.

He'll probably end up sticking with Jimmy until the end of the season, or at least until the bye week

Do not speak the name of teh Clausen in vain

[mr beauxjangles]

Why don't you think Jimmy is the long-term answer?

I'm not saying I think he is (or isn't) - it's way too early to say...

[PanthaSan]

Call Vinnie, he knew how to get us some W's...

[bleys]

lol.. great thread.. why didn't I post this earlier?

chances are good he'll suck, or not take over games.. I'm not sure some of you know the difference.. whether you think he'll be good long term or not is something you'll have to wait 3 years to find out... have fun going crazy until then..

[tarheelpride]

We can always declare Tony Pike the future or bring back Cantwell!

[rayzor]

pike.

why not? the season will be shot anyways.

[Catdaddy]

Hope he doesn't,but if the line doesn't play better he will struggle.But Moore is not better,he has totally lost his confidence as the starter.

no they aren't. just as or more likely that he won't suck.

[PanthersPhan18]

Many people are sold that Clausen will be a good qb in the future. Hopefully they're right.

Ah ha! The question I've been asking for months now. And still no one wants to admit the possibility. Could it be because even the thought of this becoming reality is too worrisome? Could it be now the Panthers have hitched their entire wagon and its contents to a single horse after having shot the last one for going lame and they have no other options?

Panther fans are gushing so hard on Clausen one would think the guy is an established veteran with a couple Pro Bowls and Super Bowl rings on his resume. The truth is... really... honest... the guy has never won a meaningful game... ever. Every time he has taken the big stage for a big game he's crumbled like a Ritz cracker.

Here's some "moore" reality- Matt Moore has seen his last playing days in Charlotte. He'll collect his $3M this season and move on to another backup job elsewhere.

But back to the original question... not that we'll see any honest answers here...
