Jake Delhomme has decided to have season ending elbow surgery which is probably the best thing for him and the Carolina Panthers. David Carr will now assume the team leader role as the quarterback. This way he won't be looking over his shoulder and the offense can try and get better. With surgery Delhomme should be able to come back better than ever next year for the Panthers.
All is not lost for Carolina as they are only one game out of first place. They can still put it together and make a playoff run. It's just going to be up to David Carr to make plays and we will have to see how well he plays in the next dozen games or so.
