Coaches Martz, Mora and Mooch discuss QB Jake Delhomme's 4 INT game against the Eagles...

I watched this assuming that if Fox was listening, they would give him 101 reasons why Jake is NOT the answer. Surprising enough they all seem to think that Jake should still be the Panther's guy. As bitter as I am, it was refreshing to hear their spin on it.
What I took away from it was that after being out of "real game" action for quite some time, the Panthers were just overwhelmed by the speed of Philly's defense... which has been very good for quite some time now. We shouldn't assume every defense we play, we'll be able to match that same intensity. The first thing to focus on should be restoring Jake's confidence. No more 7 step drops. Get him consistently completing some short passes, before taking any shots down field. Get the ball out quick to our vast repertoire of play makers, and let them do the dirty work.
As bitter as I am about Jake, this definitely cooled me down a bit. I just hope Jake and Fox can put aside their addiction to grabbing large chunks of field, long enough to make this work. What do ya think? For one week can we trade in our Gun-slinging Cajun, for a Dink and Dunk Delhomme?
