All you Anderson and R.R haters please stand up

[tiger7_88]

Some doubted the decision to sit cam...some said D.A and R R sucks and this team will implode.They did enough to win and that's all that counts.Have some faith in your damn team once in a while.

 

 

I don't hate RR.

 

But he does have a disturbing tendency to go into a shell too damn early in games.

 

Like the end of the 1st half?  He has a tendency to enter his protective shell at that exact time a lot.

I said McCown was better than Derek Anderson.

 

I deserve derision and scorn.

Put on this bindfold and stand next to that wall with red paint dripping down it.

I'm not gonna be snarky and disrespectful and ask if you watch football outside of the Panthers, because I respect you on here.

But it's not RR that does that. It's 90% of football coaches at basically every level of the game.

Who the fug thinks DA replaces Cam, or even compares to Cam? You people saying he isn't Cam? NO fuging poo he isn't Cam. But this is why we keep signing him to backup duty. So when called on, he can go out and win us a tough game, in an opener, against a divisional opponent.

This is why we don't have some scrub like Blaine Gabbert as our backup. Now Cam has another week to heal up. Hopefully we don't need DA next week, but with this defense he at least gives us a fighting chance to win the game.

Some of y'all need to take comfort in the fact that our backup QB would be starting for the Bucs in a fuging heartbeat.

Our backup QB.

Backup.

Exactly.

DA is exactly what you want at QB. A guy who knows the offense and can win you a few games if your starter goes down.

Uhm.. You could argue that shell he went in at the end of the first half that got us the fg won us the game. Soo...... What's your point? Are you going to sit here and argue we could've got a TD? Because I could sit there and argue yeah and we could of turned the ball over and not gotten any points at all.

[CarolinaSock]

If Cam had a game where he threw 2 touchdowns, had no turnovers, and completed 70% of his passes, everyone would sing his praises. So why on earth is our backup QB getting put down for that stat line? You guys do realize we only averaged a whopping 23 points last year, which we have if Gano doesn't shank one. This win is really showing out the Cam first fans.

Maybe, but if you ranked coaching staff's that played with their butt cheeks clinched tight we would be top of the list.

No, my argument is that if you have 10 seconds left in the half at the opponents 10 years line and you are the coach of an NFL team, you have all the time in the world to take a shot INTO the end zone.

 

Why in the world shouldn't a professional offense at least ATTEMPT to score 7 when they have the time to do so?  Why automatically concede the extra 4 points?

 

I know, I know, backup QB bla bla bla... well, up until that point they had trusted that backup QB to throw the ball 22 times in that half.  Now all of a sudden they can't trust him for one more?

[Mr Mojo Risin]

I admit it I was one of them although I only said it once and wasn't constantly repeating it like some on here

Because honestly bro. In that situation they know you're going to try for it and throw it. On top of that it's in the redzone where the windows get even smaller and waaaaay more difficult then while you're driving up the field.. So yeah.. He could've rolled with it but it was a high risk high reward type of situation.. Honestly I would have taken the 3 and can't fault him for that. Because as you know.. If we had gone for it and god forbid the ball does get picked and we lose the game because of that.. Jesus... Think about what you'd have to deal with everytime you came to the huddle all week... NOT A SINGLE person wouldve been like Yeah guys we lost but damn man Rivera showed some balls going for that TD at the end of the half even though we lost 3 points that would've won us the game.

 

Yeah.. No.. Smart football is exactly that. Smart. Football.

 

I do see where you're coming from here man.. Sometimes we can't just go full tilt.

If a head coach coaches his games in utter fear of interceptions, I would recommend that he never throw it.

 

Interceptions happen.

 

Interceptions happen in the red zone.

 

That doesn't mean you clam up in the red zone.  It just means that you SHOULD depend on your QB to not throw a stupid pass.

[heelinfine]

In fairness, it should have been roughing the passer based on how they were calling it earlier in the game...

Thats what I was screaming. If that was a roughing the passer on Decoud earlier, then that hit on DA definently should have been called.

Okay.. Thats apples to oranges. It would have been an unnecessary risk considering the situation we were in. It was the correct decision..

 

PS. Wasn't that our backup qb out there that hadn't started a nfl game in how many years again?

 

Just wondering.

Yes, it was.

 

And as I previously pointed out, they seemed to have had 22 passes in one half's worth of confidence in that backup QB *before* surrendering to the low-risk play at the end of the half.
