Derek Anderson the diamond in the rough

[TheRed]

What about the Cam from the Minn game?

You mean the game where our special teams gave up two touchdowns on blocked punts within the first half alone?

Our whole team had been struggling at that point.

derek anderson is not a diamond in the rough. he's cut and polished, sitting in the mid-priced section at zales. you wouldn't use him to propose, but you'd get him for your wife when she's mad at you because you forgot her 35th birthday.

 

that's crazy. Never, I repeat never make up for forgetting a birthday with diamonds!

But in the context of Anderson he was a starter before so he is not a diamond in the rough.

[Silent Majority]

If Cam is Superman, then DA is these guys own personal Jesus. Wow.

[beastson]

Diamond in the rough? Not surprised OP made this thread

[Brothergrim427]

Man...I wish we could trade him to the Cardinals.

I was just talking about that same thing to my friend. I cannot stand the DA hype , however he used to be a cardinal so I doubt they want him back. I really cannot stand the more fickle posters on this board

there are a bunch of cliques on the huddle with an axe to grind

 

like you can't open up a thread about josh norman, cam newton, norwell/turner, or anybody who had a good game against carolina once without a few usual suspects trolling and shitting it up

[Daeavorn]

I am so glad we have DA. He is by far the best backup in the league. I don't think he'd be a great starter and I think he knows he has a great gig behind Cam.

[Davidson Deac II]

They tried that once.  No bueno.

 

 

I imiagine they wish they had kept him as a back up to Palmer.

Phenomenal analogy, would read again 10/10

For a 2nd rounder

[TonyN]

As a pure passer, he is every bit as good as Newton. Nuff said???

[Billy Love]

Derek is a back up for a reason. He had a good game today, major props. Gimme Cam.

[CharlottePanther]

I will say ot once ill say it again, as far as pure passing goes, there is no difference between him and Cam. Call me names all you want but im not blind and numbers dont lie, right now DA and Cam are pretty much equal as far as passing goes.

Not saying either one of them is bad or good, simply stating one isnt really better than the other.

[TonyN]

Don't forget, Cam put up 10 of 28 for 151 yards 0 TD's 1 Int. against the worst defense in the league earlier this season.

 

Anderson's numbers today would be in line with Cam's best performances of the year...

 

Of course, "any other QB" would get "killed behind our offensive line"....

 

Except Not.
