    I think he plays, I think that this just some cautious thinking, when it comes down to it he plays.

    He is not playing,....as of now.


    Panthers' "plan right now" is to hold out Cam Newton (ribs) for Sunday's game against the Bucs.

    This "plan" has also been reported by NFL Network, ESPN and other outlets. Carolina fears that if Cam takes a shot to the ribs, it will result in another 3-4 weeks on the sideline. By starting Derek Anderson at 4pm ET today, Cam will have a very good chance to suit up for Week 2. Glazer says Newton will have a chance to convince the coaches he can protect himself by showing well in warmups, but we wouldn't count on it.

    No Cam No problem. Derek Anderson is starting and the last time I checked the Bucs are still the Bucs.

    Guy in my league didn't bother to get a back up, but still managed to win just fine with no QB.

    He looked ok but having watched him get extended playing time in Clev and AZ it is safe to say he has no business being a starting qb in the NFL unless you are tanking for #1 pick.

    Looks like they snuck by without him. Andersen looked good for a while. Lucky TB did not come back to win

    Does Carolina stay with Anderson week 2?

    hey we have all seen how erratic black QB's can be. Anderson doesnt make costly mistakes.

    Maybe the Panthers should let those ribs heal a little longer.

    There is no controversy, Cam starts Week 2 if he is able to.

    Carolina should stay with Derek Anderson next week.

    He did quite well and the team responded quite well with him at the helm!

    I think Cam sits 1 more week or even 2. I thought cracked ribs can take several weeks to heal. Derek Anderson is more than capable of filling in for a few weeks.

    The Lions probably win either way and Suh has a mean streak.
