QB starter per Lombardi

[carolinarolls]

DA a head case? Huh?

[CRA]

I think some will be surprised w/ DA. You gotta remember, QBs are best suited for different offenses. DA didn't fit IMO well in AZ. After watching years of Delhomme.....and what occured last year.....DA will probably remind many of some of the "good" Jake. Not his attitude and all that stuff but just pure QB play.

When has Lombardi ever been right? He was even getting the first round draft picks wrong about 3 seconds before they were announced.

A preseason full of serious QB competition and snap by snap evaluation means I can't get hammered pregame. I needs to be sharp whilez I watch, and rewind on the DVRz.

Jimmy is the dark horse. Underdog. Midget with the brass knuckles, watch out for him.

id rather see the best man on the field..be it jimm,derek or cam.ill trust the coaches to put the best guy on the field week one.

Two simple words...collard greens.

...on the other hand, like Baldinger just said on NFLN if Cam is even close to performing as well as Clausen or DA you should go with him.

Baldinger made a good point: on 3rd down when the Panthers spread it out 4 wide with Cam in the shotgun, are you going to put 6 DB's on the field with Cam's size/ability?

It's hard for me to wrap my head around all the possibilities with a QB like Cam, we've never had anything like it.

It's gonna be fun to watch. That's all I can say about the QB battle, and imo Anderson starting isn't even in play here, the coaches probably see it's Clausen/Cam.

I think most of the arguments about Cam around here are based on Cam being "just another NFL rookie QB." He isn't. You never put more than 5 DBs on the field against Newton. Too big and too fast. If you put 6 DBs in, YOU BETTER be zone blitzing. Otherwise, you're screwed. Cam is a different breed of player, if utilized appropriately. I am so pumped for the 13th. Only a little over a week away!

just on NFL channel...

Lombardi answers the question of who will start by saying it will probably be DA due to familiarity with Chud's offense but Cam should get in there asap as DA's accuracy is a huge question and our offense will struggle with him. No mention of JC as a possible starter.

This is kind of what I thought on the thread yesterday about who may start next Friday and how many reps they will get.

DA's accuracy? Is it worse than CAM's accuracy issues? I'd imagine DA would have a huge advantage since he did ride Chud's system to a pro bowl appearance. I'd say his experience within the system is huge compared to a guy who is taking is first practice snaps in the NFL and has never played a down in a real game yet.

I would imagine, barring injury, DA will start the whole season unless we go 1-7 in the first half of the season. It would be best for Cam to watch and learn. We saw first hand what throwing a young player to the wolves can do last season with Jimmy. Why do it if we don't have to. Nobody can realistically expect us to make the playoffs this year anyway so why not use up DA this year to show Cam how the system is run.

I'm all for DA running the show for a season. Who knows, he could go all "Kurt Warner" on our ass and take us to a superbowl. Wasn't Warner supposed to just be a teacher and groom the next great thing in Arizona?

Very un-exciting... I'll rather see JC before DA.

It is what it is

Dumbest post I have ever read.

Right now, Cam is nothing BUT another Rookie QB.

These posts are exactly why the Cam Slurping Club sound so fuging ridiculous.
