I don't mean wrong call in the short term. I am just saying right now he may be a little Clausen so if you are going by where they are at this exact moment it probably should have been Clausen. But it was pretty close and Cam is the future

What is the benchmark to prove Cam hasn't proven himself in the eyes of the coaches?

being named the starter for the regular season today like Riversa said he would...?

unless you're going to argue that Jimmy has been so impressive he's made the call tough for Rivera.

Probably the right call in the long run but maybe the wrong call in the short turn. But I think Cam should be the guy unless he completely poo's the bed on Thursday

yup... that's what it'll be. I think we could have gone a few more weeks with Clausen but it was only a matter of time.

In week 4, teams play almost exclusively scrubs, so I don't know that we will learn much against the Steelers.

It's possible with the abbreviated camps etc this year starters may play a little more Game 4 of the PS. With that being said if Cam has a good 1st quarter Game 4 it wouldn't surprise me if Rivera pulls him out on a positive note. :p

Yup.

To be devils advocate, maybe they know what they are going to get with Clausen and this is Cam's last shot to secure the starting role.

I think you are basically right, but I don't think he has to be exceptional by any stretch to win the role. Basically they feel confident they know what they get with Clausen from preseason games and practice but Cam is a bit inconsistent so they would like to get him more time with a gameplan around him to see how he does

being named the starter today like Riversa said he would all along...?

The offense in general was ineffective against in Miami, and that made it difficult to evaluate the rookie QB. The point of naming a week 1 starter this week was for the preparation for Thursday's "dress" rehearsal, and they will still get to have that mock period in which they can prepare for thursday as if it were a regular season game.

      Tom Pelissero: Ejiro Evero name to watch when coaching cycle commences

      By SteveSmithTD89 · Posted

      Respectfully, I completely disagree. Last year we were:  32nd in Sacks. 32nd in Turnovers.  32nd in Rushing TDs allowed  29th in Scoring.  We were absolutely atrocious on defense last year and that was with a full stable of weapons in Derek Brown, Frankie Luvu and Brian Burns that played all 17 games.  Using yards per game as a metric to guage our success lacks the context that because our offense was so inept teams were not driving the length of the field, they were starting at their 40-50 yard line.  This year, our Defense ranks:  31st in Sacks. Tied for 19th in Turnovers  31st in Rushing TDs allowed 32nd in Scoring  His defense fails to get pressure, fails to turn the ball over and fails to stop the run. Three things you absolutely have to do to be successful in the NFL.  Denver meanwhile has not missed a beat without him.  If another team wants to hire him as a HC and the Panthers get two 3rds for it I'll wish him the best and pack his bags myself.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      Ah, the ol Cam Newton hating.  I will give you credit, the week of pretending to be a Daniel Jones super fan is a very clever way to disguise your hatred of Cam.
