The familiar cadence at the line of scrimmage during the Panthers practice on Thursday came from backup quarterback Derek Anderson, charged up to do his best Peyton Manning impersonation as he ran the scout team offense against Ron Rivera’s front-line defense.
  
At one point during the crisp, one-hour, 15-minute practice on the grass fields adjacent to Spartan Stadium at San Jose State University, Anderson screamed "Omaha" and drew the defense offside.
    
"We’re trying," head coach Ron Rivera said. "We know that certain things (with calls at the line of scrimmage) mean something else. But it’s just so our players hear it.
    
"We got one today. That was one of the things that got me today."
     
Rivera said that the would-be penalty was good as a teaching tool.

 

Having Derek Anderson, the same type of QB as Peyton Manning, is a real advantage in practices. This is something Denver does not have. Not sure they have anyone close on their roster to imitate Cam Newton.

Funny thing is that DA is probably a better QB than Manning is right now.

They have Brock Oswhatever imitating Cam in practice. The jokes write themselves.

Is there any team in the league who has a player that can imitate Cam?

Yeah, the Panthers do. 

 

Joe Webb would do a nice job in practice.

The Panthers have Joe Webb. Not sure that helps other teams though. :)

That's why we picked him up last year.

LOL at "Oswhatever!"

His last name is kind of hard to spell.

I tried sounding it out and it didn't work, lol. So I went with the next best.

Joe Webb will be a priority to be resigned this off-season
