Anderson


Hairless Cat

Recommended Posts

not just probably, he won't... unless Newton (and Clausen likely) gets injured.

Anderson was never meant to play on this team, he was meant to serve as a mentor and guide for Cam and Jimmy. As Rivera said, they are our future.

Frankly, I'd rather they be our future once they were a bit more ready, especially when Anderson has looked pretty damn great all preseason, but hey... whatever

Stats don't begin to tell the whole story, but Anderson was 14/23 263 yards and 2 TDs. A good preseason for him anyway.

His ball placement tonight was amazing. He managed to make some nice throws under pressure too, though not always. He didn't look anything like the suck he has been for the last couple years in various places. He definitely seemed more comfortable. Kinda curious to see what he could do with the 1s...

Are you fuging nuts? Derek Anderson sucks. The guys he was playing against will be looking for a new job come morning.

He was playing with our 1.5s/2s/3s, and he was playing against their 1.5s/2s/3s.

He did well, and he certainly looked better than any of our QBs have this preseason, but it is just preseason.

A probowler sucks - yeah - right-

anyone with half a clue to the game could see Anderson is ready to lead this team now, whereas the 2 and 3 guys arent even close to having his poise - apparently the teams management is willing to let the fans suffer through another abysmal season so we can hope for the future. sorry but Im done hoping for the future - I want to win now damnit! I aint getting any younger!!!!!

Start Anderson!

A one time Pro Bowler and it was several years ago. He couldn't even snag the staring job in QB desperate AZ with literally no competition.

Cam is the future. DA is here solely as a mentor. Get that thru your head.

Hell you're right! I don't know what I was thinking! They should cut Newton & Clausen, re-sign Delhomme, then let Anderson & Delhomme fight it out in practice for the starting job. Then we'd have two pro-bowlers & be on our way to the Super Bowl! :rolleyes:

Give me a break, Cam Newton already gives us a much better chance to win than Derk Anderson. Is Derek Anderson gonna play o-line, d-line, & cb, too? And who is he gonna throw it to when Olsen & Smith are doubled? Cam Newton will be able to scramble, run, & bulldoze over people. Anderson will be a sitting duck & get sacked, or throw 20+ INT again.

    • If my reply comes off argumentative, that is not my intention so please don’t take it as such.  You said one word, probably subconsciously, in your post that immediately disqualifies him from being a QB in the NFL. You actually said it twice. Kid. It’s exactly how you see him, and exactly how the rest of the entire NFL sees him as well.  Yes, he is a kid, he looks and acts like a kid and that exactly IS the problem. The NFL is for grown ass men. Period. Hell, our kicker looks like he collects ‘taxes’ as a side hustle. These are straight dudes. Men.  Nothing in his persona changed from last year to this.  Nothing in his physical stature. Nothing. He has shown 0 development. 0. And he disrespects the entire organization, talking video games and Netflix in the offseason. Bro. Really. My man Chuba is busting his ass to look good for his second contract. Set himself up for life. How many RBs make it to even sign contract #3? First 2 games he has to run in to a brick wall continuously because Netflix can’t even get it over the LOS.  He’s a kid who pulled off the biggest heist in world history. He looks happier on the sideline goofing around than he ever has looked on the field. It’s time to cut bait. 
    • I hear you and I can imagine it's frustrating as a fan, but UNC-CH leaving the ACC would be throwing away over a century of history. It would really suck if y'all, or Clemson, or any of the other remaining charter members leave. I still think it sucks that Maryland left as well. Feels so wrong not having that rivalry anymore. Maryland fuging hated us and I loved it. Who's Maryland's rival now in the big 10? Rutgers? lol. Also, I think that the Heels are more likely to be Kentucky 2.0 than you are to get serious about football upon joining the SEC. Both UNC (and also Duke's) administrations seem very stuck in their ways with sticking to their ways and remaining basketball powerhouses. I do wish we could see NC teams actually competing in my favorite sport sometimes but alas. I personally value keeping our history intact over trying to become top flight CFB programs because nowadays it's just a pay to win sport anyways. Even if UNC-CH got serious I doubt they could compete with that Texas oil money, or that Oregon nike money, or that USC rich kid money. That's all top level college football really is anymore. You're either an established blue blood or you're willing to waste tons of money that could be spent on education rather than football. 
    • Maybe a move to the SEC forces UNC to be more serious about football?   I mean we should be making noise in the weak ACC and we can't even do that. How is Duke better than UNC in football right now? It's honestly sad and pathetic.   It doesn't matter if we get another great QB as you said a QB doesn't mean you have a great roster. A QB can only do so much. We lack elite guys in the trenches. That's how you build a program. It starts up front.
