I know you're trolling hard, but the Panthers get discussed so little we'll take what we can get.
>Damn, well then he couldn't possibly carry an entire offense on his back and bring them to the Super Bowl or something.
Stephen Davis was your man that year on offense, and as I recall your only Pro Bowl player on that side of the ball.
Panthers leading receiver, Steve Smith, caught 88 balls, 34 more than the next best receiver.
I'd put both of those players above Delhomme in importance, and your defense was your better unit anyway.
I count one game your offense scored above 30 points, and you were smack in the middle of the pack of scoring offense, and 10th in scoring defense.
Those stats are skewed somewhat by all the interceptions Jake Delhomme threw that put your defense on a short field. He threw interceptions at a 3.6% per attempt clip, which is high for an entrenched starter. Peyton Manning throws picks at a 2.7% rate.
Delhomme also coughed the ball up 15 times that year, but somehow he and his teammates managed to recover all but 6 of them. Both are still high.
So in conclusion Jake Delhomme is a mediocre turnover machine. Thank god he had Steve Smith, Stephen Davis, and a defense that year otherwise the Panthers would have gone nowhere.
