Cam expected to play a half at New England

[gettlemanjack]

Ron Rivera said today: "I would love to be able to do that, to get (the starters) 30-35 snaps on both sides of the ball. That would be outstanding in terms of getting these guys some real good looks, quarterback included."

...

the Panthers must cut 14 players by Tuesday (August 26 is first roster cuts, when team must trim roster down to 75)

"This game is big for a lot of guys. There are a lot of guys on both sides of the ball and special teams that have to perform," Rivera said. "We have to make some tough decisions. We're going to have to let some good football players go. We'll play them, and then we'll get back evaluate, look at the tape and then make some decisions."

Olsen just said on the Mac Attack they did more prep for the Chiefs than the Patriots. Don't expect much.

we had 9 days to prepare for KC, only 5 to prepare for NE.

Pats have 7 days to prepare for us (their last game was Friday, ours Sunday)

Chandler and Turner out.  We'll be reminded how capable Scott, Williams, and Co. are.  Garry actually did ok last week and helped us at LT on a few of DA's scoring drives.
