Any word on starting QB?

[Trapped in California]

Two trains of thought on this

1. Give Pat more rest to prepare for the playoff run, or
2. Have Pat start for the first half, to knock heads and knock off rust, then play Zach to get more plays under his belt

I would hazard there is about a 60% chance the Pat Grace dresses, but stands on the sideline unless needed. Reading the Farley tea leaves without any further facts.


Anyone willing to take a guess?

I think its Davis' job to lose at this point. I don't think we see PG unless ZD gets hurt or is terribly ineffective...IMO....

I do think the race gets opened up in the spring, and what a battle it will be...

Brett, be careful of which you speak. Many on this board feel that Pat is the next Michael Vick (without the dog fighting) or the second coming of jesus. There is NO WAY that ZD will start.

I agree with your opinion though.

I think Davis gets the start unless Grace is completely healed.

Davis starts this week and Grace is back the following.

I think Coleman should start.



Seriously. Do we have to go through this crap now with football. We're winning. We were winning with Grace, we're winning with Davis. We should win with either the next three weeks.

Re: Any word on starting QB?

Farley will not bench Davis until (if) he does poorly, mark my words. He will continue to give us lines such as "When Grace is healthy, he will be our starter" Which essentially means "Davis is our guy" since Grace has not been 100% since he got off of the plane in Provo.

Re: Any word on starting QB?

If Grace doesn't start this week he is certainly not gonna start the week after at Indiana State.

So right now there is no word on who is going to be the starter this weekend.

Not Vick...he is the next Tebow!

If Farley DOES think that PG is the better QB right now, then definately play him tomorrow. I think PG was getting better each game he played before he got hurt, and to hold him out until the playoff would mean he'd be VERY rusty.

Re: Any word on starting QB?

What a great argument to have... Its a win/win with both quarterbacks, and I think they have both proven it. I will admit I was a little nervous with Davis when Grace went down, but after last week he has proven he can manage a game. However, now that we are getting down toward the end of the season we need to get Pat Grace in as soon as possible... He has more experience, and that will help making a run in the playoffs. Davis is good... but i gotta go with the big guy.

Honestly, the people they should be resting is Huygens and Swift.

Any word on Ruffin?

Here's the latest non-answer from Farley - BTW it seems that the DSM Reg is taking Panther FB more serious these days. They have a beat writer that is putting out 2-4 stories a week, not just recaps.

Not making the leap to having a winning Panther team on the front page versus two losing teams (rinse and repeat as necessary). Just three more games until Keeler jumps on our bandwagon.
