CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Jake Delhomme will remain Carolina's starting quarterback despite an NFL-high 13 interceptions in six games.

Coach John Fox announced after practice Wednesday that he still thinks Delhomme gives the Panthers "the best chance to win" and won't bench him, something he contemplated earlier in the week.

Delhomme has committed 15 turnovers while throwing only four touchdown passes in Carolina's 2-4 start. He had three more picks Sunday, leading to 14 points in Buffalo's 20-9 win.

His latest performance led Fox to waver on Delhomme for the first time since he replaced Rodney Peete as Carolina's starter early in the 2003 season. But Fox is sticking with Delhomme ahead of backups Matt Moore and A.J. Feeley.
