Carolina Panthers news and notes

2010 NFL Draft in review: Carolina Panthers

If I was Carolina Panthers QB Matt Moore, I would be very nervous. Just after getting rid of QB Jake Delhomme it seemed that the tam was ready to hand over the reins to Moore, however in the drat they not only landed QB Jimmy Clausen of Notre Dame, but Tony Pike of Cincinnati as well. On top of that they took a wild card in the third round by selecting Armanti Edwards QB at Appalachian State. By my count that is four QB’s on the depth chart and while Edwards will probably move to another position or be their Wild Cart option, it does not seem like the team has much confidence in Moore.

What are the Carolina Panthers needs heading into 2010?

For the second year in a row the Carolina Panthers do not have a first round draft pick. They traded it away at the 2009 Draft o move up in the second round and select Everette Brown. At this point it feels safe to say that they overpaid for that selection, and once a team starts’ dealing away draft picks they can get themselves into real trouble. For example the Chicago Bears.

Fix the Franchise: Carolina Panthers edition

This is kind of a tough one to ferret out. I would have said their QB situation needs to be fixed, but they released Jake Delhomme and have handed over the offense to Matt Moore. That looks like solid move, but with an 8-8 record this team needs something. I would normally say, they could get that something in the NFL draft, but for the second year in a row they do not have a first round draft pick. They haven’t been active in Free Agency, so maybe the problem lies with management.

2009 NFL season in review: Carolina Panthers

The defense was so good, but the offense was so bad. It the NFL it seems it is how you start, the 2009 Carolina Panthers started the season 0-3 and never were able to recover. Of course most of the blame for that lies with QB Jake Delhomme, and his continued meltdown. At times it seems that the only people he can throw passes too are players wearing a different color uniform than his. Now the Panthers must decide if QB Matt Moore is ready to be their guy, and if not they may have a problem on their hands.

Is it time for Jake Delhomme to sit?

The Carolina Panthers have a very large problem outside of their very disappointing 4-7 record. QB Jake Delhomme has never fully recovered from a terrible start in lat year's playoffs, and the time has come for him to be benched. For Head Coach John Fox he may be time for him to strip away Delhomme's job before the Owner of the Carolina Panthers decides to strip away his own job.

Panic time for the Carolina Panthers

It is, time to press the panic button for the Carolina Panthers. After winning their division a year ago, they have now started the 2009 season 0-3. On Monday Night Football they turned in a pathetic performance against the Dallas Cowboys. The main problem for this team is Jake Delhomme has lost his grip, and needs to be benched. However the problems for this team are far deeper than that.

Carolina loses amist Delhomme meltdown

In the 2008 playoffs Carolina Panthers Quarterback, Jack Delhomme, had a six turnover meltdown that ended the Panthers’ season. Yesterday versus the Philadelphia Eagles Delhomme continued his meltdown and coughed up the ball five more times. For those keeping score at home that means in his last two games Delhomme has given up the ball eleven times. That simply won’t do.
