The Carolina Panthers will be going through a transition phase this season after losing two of their most notable players over the last decade.\u00a0 Gone are former starting QB Jake Delhomme (Cleveland Browns) and DE Julius Peppers (Chicago Bears) from a team that played in Super Bowl XXXVIII a little less than seven years ago.\u00a0 Carolina head coach John Fox remains to try to re-build around the NFL\u2019s third-best running game, led by two returning 1,000-yard rushers in Jonathan Stewart and DeAngelo Williams.\u00a0 To help their chances against the NFL spreads, Fox will turn to third-year QB Matt Moore to replace Delhomme while rookie Jimmy Clausen learns behind him.\u00a0 Because Stewart and Williams can dominate by running the ball, Moore will not have a lot of pressure on him right away.\u00a0 But that could change down the line if the Panthers struggle and with Clausen breathing down his neck.<\/p>\n
