Panthers Coach Ron Rivera hopes to get one good series out of quarterback Cam Newton tonight against Buffalo in his preseason debut of Norv Turner's offense. Then the goal is to get Garrett Gilbert in with the first team to see where he stands as he battles Taylor Heinicke for the backup job that has been Derek Anderson's since Newton entered the league in 2011.

Kyle Allen isn't mentioned as being in the mix, but it's worth noting that Heineke was an interception machine in practice recently.

I can't remember who I was talking to that told me Heineke was the one to watch. 

Heineke did nothing the 4 days I was at TC to make me think he even has a shot at the 53 man roster.

I'll be shocked of Cam plays more than one series. I won't be surprised if he hardly throws a pass. Maybe a screen or a check down or two. Call it a night.

That's what I'd do.

Might be what Rivera does. We'll see soon enough.

      25-26 NHL Regular Season Thread

      Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!

      When the broadcast showed the two benches side by side during the last TV timeout, it was pretty obvious the whole operation is a shitshow. If I was the owner, I would play that clip, with commentary, on the jumbotron at MSG as I fired the coach, GM, President, the whole lot. Bring in your AHL leadership team, wholesale, to finish out the season and start from scratch next year.  Can't fire all the players and fold the season. But, hopefully decapitating the zombie will light a fire under the body and burn out the cancer of the roster. (It makes sense if you don't think about it...) There are obviously issues on the roster. But, you can't have the entire coaching staff completely tuned out with 5 minutes left in a 2 goal game this early in the season. And you can't trust the people that hired them to hire the next staff. If you trust your AHL GM/Scouts, let them run the deadline firesale.   ...     Please don't let the owner read any of this. Because, this poo is hilarous!
