Backup Quarterback for Cam


Dex

Recommended Posts

The Golden Calf of Bristol. No joke. If your looking for a QB that would compliment Cam in both style (at least the running style) and leadership he's your guy. Not a real possibility at this point but that's the type of QB we need IMO.

Gotta be a joke....Chud's offense has always been about sitting in the pocket and the vertical pass. The Golden Calf of Bristol doesn't fit.

Cam's running is a bonus.......our backup doesn't need to be purely someone who can only do Cam's bonus stuff.

Exactly. Derek Anderson is in all reality a great fit for our backup, and if Clausen develops at all he might even be able to contribute in a pinch. But the offense is a vertical passing attack first, the read option is simply gravy (unlike the Broncos Foxball offense.)

Derek Anderson is about as good a backup for Cam Newton as we could want.

Veteran, knows and has excelled in the system, familiar with Chud.

he also has sucked balls in this system.....and every other time he has seen the field since that one fluke year. We need a backup QB. Can't live and die with Cam Newton every year.

There are plenty of backup quarterbacks who have sucked when they've been handed the keys but have played alright in a relief scenario.

One of them played here not long ago, in fact.

Mayock on #Wisconsin QB Russell Wilson: "Could be Doug Flutie. I mean, that's how good this kid is. Innate understanding of making plays."

More Mayock on Russell Wilson: "He's a playmaker, I don't care how tall he is. He's got a good enough arm. ... That kid is special."

Sounds like what people were saying about a qb we drafted... :jc:

A few people have said Russel Wilson would be a good fit - and I can't disagree with that. From a personality standpoint - Matt Moore makes a ton of sense. I've heard that he absolutely loved it in Charlotte and misses it. Having a guy like that could allow Cam to take a breather in the many blowouts we'll have next season. In all seriousness, we don't need someone good - perhaps a Jimmy Claussen type - but not a total dick.
