I get the man crush on Cam. I am excited about him too. But I don't see how it's so easy to dismiss using useless practices with a QB who knows the system to give the rest of the team more time to get a handle on it. There is a reason he was brought in and logic says he is to warm the team up for Cam to take the reigns.

Anyone who looks at this preseason for the Panthers as a clue to who the staff has fingered as QB1 is not looking at this very intelligently.

I disagree, I think preseason will be a huge factor in who the #1 QB week 1. I think ideally Rivera wants Cam to be that guy week 1.....if he ain't ready either DA or Clausen will start the year off based on preseason/practice.

I think DA is a saftey net......not a plan for the start of the year.

Oh hell no. Not starter for the year. This is about starter in preseason. the thinking is that since he know the offense the best he can get everyone up to speed fastest. And since it's preseason, bad passes can be overlooked as long as everyone else has their assignments down. This creates a much less nightmarish situation for Cam to inherit.

No kidding.

Signing Derek Anderson was a nightmare? I'm sorry the ordeal was so difficult for some of you.

Agreed. there was a time when I wanted him to be a Panther so bad. Now he is. A pro bowler who is still young and is the only QB on the roster who knows the offense.

Some posters on here are ridiculous.

Clausen will almost certainly start.

DA hasn't even practiced yet. There is more to team chemistry then knowing the coaches playbook.

Putting Cam in to start puts ALL the pressure on him. That would be in sane. You bring him in against a second string defense and build his confidence. I would be shocked if this didn't happen.

Clausen will get a chance to show what he can do. Chud will want to see what he is really dealing with here.

let me clarify

again

this is for the first preseason game. I got corrected on the date of the game so I am sure somebody else understood that. This is not for the season opener.

WTF does team chemistry have to do with Pre-Season?

Hate to sound like Mark Packer here but Pre-Season means nothing and is practice.

DA knows the playbook and has been around the block....I could see him starting just as easily as Clausen. DA knows more......and any QB walking in off the street could have more chemistry with Smitty than Jimmy.

I think Cam gets his first preseason start game 3 pending his first 2 go as planned.

      Are the Panthers a "Trap Game" for the Hawks?

      By trucpfan · Posted

      This is huge may not be a trap game but this plays a major part in what they want to do. If we can get some pressure on Sam we know what he does with pressure coming hit and heavy. Also we may be able to take the top off their defense a backup safety trying to stop TMac or Cooker over the top or forcing him to play the backend should allow us to run the ball somewhat effectively. Either they allow some runs or we take some shots and if Bryce and whoever can connect deep we’ll be in business for another big time win against a top notch opponent. Might not be a trap game but health travel game plans all play a major role in each weeks game plan and this week might be leaving our way. We’re missing some replaceable pieces they’re missing key anchors to the offense and defense major difference time to solidly ourselves at one of the top teams in the nfc tomorrow fellas buckle up.

      Give Legette another season?

      Yes.  If I am not mistaken, we need to sign Coker to the ERFA tender and insist that XL spends his spring and summer at a WR camp and not Coon huntin on his four wheeler.  XL was raw when we picked him--which is why I wanted to go another direction--and we are seeing how raw.  He is basically learning a position.     The Panthers will make their move in 2026 to be an NFL powerhouse behind Bryce.  Bryce needs intelligent WRs who catch the ball.  That said, we need a solid #2 to challenge XL and make cutting him easy, if necessary.  A #2 WR (intented to be a #1 by now) with under 400 yards is embarrassing.   On offense, you have to ask, "Where can we get better?"  In my view, #2 WR, TE (although they are improving) and maybe C (again, if we re-sign Mays, he is trending up and at 26, entering his prime--I say stay with him and find competition later in the draft (not good for C).  OL depth maybe?  In other words, XL is a glaring weak spot.
