Jake had played well whenever he had an opportunity to get on the field. All of the evidence at that time screamed that he should have went in and played instead of putting an injured AB in the game.

You can't say Haslett made a good decision way back then because Jake did not play well in 2009.

True. And you can't say Jake would be better than "X" QB as Drew's backup in 2010 because of what he did 3 or 4 years ago, regardless of who "X" QB is, because the numbers will show nobody has done any worse at the position than Delhomme lately. Recent history says he'd suck hard, cause that's all he's done for the last year +.

Jake failed to crack the starting lineup prior to AB, and post AB. He was cut by people not named Haslett. He didn't/doesn't have the tools, and it was an injury to the starting QB that got him on the field in Carolina. He did well for a while but the real Jake ultimately cost him his job and the Panthers a good 12 million. He's good on a 5 yard slant, but he panics in the pocket, throws lobs down the middle of the field when pressured, and generally tends to make poor decisions. That's not me being biased. Thats on his record for the world to see.
