How Cam Newton, Panthers match up vs. Ron Rivera, Washington | Pro Football Talk | NBC Sports

Mustafa Kamal

Respect to both Cam and Ron ❤️

bj Bailey

Thanks Ron for taking the high road

Jason Fifield

With all due respect, Association Football (soccer) is by far the most humbling sport over the NFL…especially for managers( coaches). Teams will fire a newly hired manager before even the half way mark of the season if they have a losing streak or get embarrassed in a game by a rival.

    Nate Gibbs

    This is so disrespectful…

    OG James

    hey we don’t care

wiley schmitt

I’d take Washington +3.5, Rivera has an advantage knowing Cam’s tendencies better than anyone else.

    michael cooke

    @Mask Collector ha ha ha ha really really. Wft shocked the world last Sunday. If these back ups were hungry where was all this energy with this embarrassing start and being hyped all season.

    Skins Nation

    @michael cooke thank you and I’m a Washington fan . Watch the film . Tampa dropped 3 int and Brady missed at least 2 Td . It wa a fluke off week for them slow start off bye don’t get to hyped Washington fans

    Bryan

    @Skins Nation Not to mention the fact that they have to do this on the road

    Eddyboi

    Hahaha go WFT! Panthers fans thought

    Bryan

    @Eddyboi It was a good game lol

Neonblack789

We miss you down here too Ron, you did a great job. Still rooting for your success, just not this Sunday lol

Mask Collector

I figure they’re playing both qb’s still, doubt we’ll see only Cam Newton.

King Short

I think Skins gonna Smoke Panthers … Imo. We’ll see… 🤔

    Bronze Feet

    I must be high to because the wft will win convincingly to.

    King Short

    @duke Blue Don’t do it , not gonna touch it and We’ll see…..

    Fidelis Bekong

    @duke Blue well….

    duke Blue

    @Fidelis Bekong well what? Washington not even in no playoffs contention mfs didn’t smoke no team

    Fidelis Bekong

    @duke Blue It’s much easier to admit you were wrong.

Teacher L

That coach is reluctant to start Cam? … He CLEARLY did not make the decision to acquire him!

Mark M

Classy answer by Rivera.

Santon Smith

A ROOKIE beat this CLOWN out of a starting job. 🤡😂😂

Goober Mcgilicuty

The NFC primarily plays each other and therein lies the plus. But hey, you all stick to your ridiculous narrative and hopefully football wins as a whole in the end.

theirine17

Next week Cam announces he is non-Binary

Charlson Gaines

This isn’t Cam vs Rivera. The WFT defense pass rush is lacking. Sweat and Young are out. Their LBs can’t cover CMC. And the Panthers defense is the strength of this team, not Cam. The defense is gonna shut down Heinicke, regardless of what Cam gets done.

    DFG kennels

    You must not have paid attention the last 3 weeks. The defense is on fire and playing the best football since last season. Ask Brady how those linebackers playing😂😂

    DFG kennels

    Ps sweat and young haven’t really contributed this season. Our 4 d tackles we rotate are a nightmare. Jonathan Allen is having a allpro season

    flying tiger

    @DFG kennels agreed…LB play has improved a bit…holcomb holding his own…Davis slowly learning…the biggest move has been allowing Landon Collins to play LB essentially…allowing him to use his skills most effectively in this D

Ed Harris

I was surprised that they started Cam. Don’t get me wrong – I think that he will be a difference maker down the stretch and especially after a full spring of OTA’s, but I thought they would start PJ and add a bit more of Cam than they did last week. After all, PJ had an incredibly high completion percentage and Cam is a touchdown machine. Just have PJ manage the offense until they get to the redzone, then have Cam put up tons of points. That’s what I thought they would do.
That said, if they really think that Cam has a good grasp of the offense so quickly then by all means start him, I just think that they’re being a bit impatient.

DFG kennels

Ron knows cam. Cam has no chemistry with the receivers . And the team isn’t gonna wanna let Ron down. I think Washington may blow Carolina out

    The Man

    But you forgot about defense, so its gonna be close

    DFG kennels

    @The Man ok.. Give me a hour. Ill be back! Cam don’t kno the plays😂

    DFG kennels

    @The Man you were right. It was close. But i knew with cam just getting back. He would be limited. They aren’t winning many games this season. By the time he learns the offense. Season will be over

flying tiger

I think Cam will be a bit rusty, still learning Ruhle’s and Brady’s system…but he still has a ton of talent, is mobile, and a total WC…having said that, if there is one HC that will know how to play Cam, it Ron Rivera! BTW, Florio and Simms are absolutely top shelf! go WSH!

Nathan Henry

Why would he say the NFC East title is out of reach for Washington? We’re now 4-6 with 7 games left. Dallas just lost, is 7-3 and still has to see us twice

Kevin Neri

I’m back! “IM” sums up cam newton. Screaming about himself. Always happy to see him lose. Cam has always been about himself. “I’m back” loses the next week
