Derek Anderson the diamond in the rough

[stirs]

When you beat the worst team in the league by only two points at home, I don't think of diamonds or pearls or anything in the jewelry box.  This goes not only for the QB, but the RB's, WR's, LB's, Kicker, Safeties, etc.

Derek Anderson "is what he is".

 

Not great, passable. Good teammate.

 

He is Cam Newton without the hype.

You are SuperJ without the South Charlotte reference.

Trade Cam now...is that how we do this thread?

This is why he is the best backup in the league.

[WOW!!]

Who was the guy who loved Matt Moore. ..

He did have a few throws that should've been picked, and the interception that was called back because of a bogus call (which I was happy to take) but overall he was great.

 

Disagree that was a bogus call.  The Bucs had gotten away with at least two slaps to DA's face before that that should have been called.  It might be lame, but 90% of the time that call is made in today's NFL.  Finally getting caught for it on an INT is karma.

A bunch of us.

 

...but you probably mean TheRealDeal.  I sometimes miss him, he was a fun poster for a long time, but then he started just trolling people.

TheRealDeal.  Rumor has it he moved to Miami a few years ago and shortly thereafter committed seppuku.

Newton will be starting over Anderson as soon as he's cleared because he's the better QB.

Anderson is Newton's back up & is one of the best back ups around. Whine all you want but there it is...

 

why is this even a question?  I like Anderson and all and I am glad he is here but he has the Kerry Collins syndrome as a starter.

bleh.  For the longest time he was the most annoying poster on this forum.  His levels have since been surpassed though.

Thing is I actually like Anderson. He seems to have a good rapport with cam and has filled in well when called on. Kind of disappointing that he's little more than another implement in the old troll toolbelt now but oh well.

 

All the trolling idiocy aside, I respect Derek, he's a terrific teammate, he deserves some success.

 

You really couldn't ask for much more from your backup. We're clearly fortunate in that regard.

Numbers over a career says differently. . But screw numbers right..

Only numbers that should matter to us are his numbers as a Panther.

There was a time before 2010 when he was useful.  I think in/around 2008-2009 he had a lot of insightful posts.  It has been a while, so I can't remember when exactly he just started relentlessly trolling people. 

 

He is nothing like what we have to deal with regularly now, that's true.  The thing about TRD was he was very capable of providing interesting football insight, he just stopped caring enough to.

The Golden Calf of Bristol's numbers only work for the Broncos.
