Get ready to see Anderson start

@BlackBlueReview: Get ready to see Derek Anderson start for the #Panthers http://t.co/4C15I3MNRd

anthers quarterback Cam Newton remains a game-time decision for Sunday’s season opener, but get prepared to see Derek Anderson start against the Bucs.

Newton raised hopes after going through Friday and Saturday’s walk-through, but the sense inside the team hasn’t changed much from earlier this week. Rushing the franchise’s most-important player back out there is too great of a risk, especially when one hit could set him back another few weeks. Rivera has allowed Newton to do all he can to make it back for Week 1, but ultimately, Riverboat will end up folding this hand.

I havent opened the link so I'm not sure what it says, but if we lose this game it's all on Rivera.

Ron should know after last season how devastating a week 1 loss can be. It isn't a marathon.

I edited with some info from the link.

OL better step their game the hell up today. DA won't be able to bail them out with his legs.

This is what worries me the most. I don't doubt Anderson's ability, but I'm afraid that those slow developing routes will get him killed out there.

    • I have no strong opinion either way. I mean, for those who are out, do you really expect Tepper to hire anyone better? So far, Canales has probably been his best coaching hire. Granted, that's an extremely low bar to clear but I'm just saying it's not like there's a line of great candidates beating down the door begging to work for Tepper. Going 5-5 with the worst QB play in the league isn't terrible. Now with that said, I expect to start getting the hell beaten out of us now that the Saints have shown what I thought was obvious all along - sell out against the run and stack the box and absolutely force us to have to throw the ball and it basically makes the game unwinnable for a Bryce Young QB'd team.
    • You're letting your hatred for him cloud your judgement, you can't say with 100% certainty that Bryce can't play anywhere else, especially since everyone here said the same about Darnold and Mayfield and are now backtracking to say "well they had the skills all along"... absolutely nobody was saying that at the time. You are forgetting that the Panthers are currently a poverty franchise that taints everything they touch, it is absolutely in the realm of possibility that Bryce sits for a few years and then looks like Mac Jones does right now. But I agree that it won't happen here, and the Panthers have to move on.
    • That was me. Overall it has tightened up. Kickoffs are good. FGs are good normally. Punting game is good. PR isn’t bad. I didn’t see what happened on the block, who let the guy through. I knew we were putting a couple of new guys out there but thought they we gunner types. Chisena.
