The Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton
will let his boss happier, if he threw the ball, rather than compete for the
exhibition in New England on Friday night. Newton three times up on Sunday evening 28-16 victory over
Kansas City since
the first time he faced an opponent his left ankle surgery in March. In at
least two disrupted coach Ron Rivera scream from a few words I could sideline
"should not be the quarterback for the team." But this is he, who he
is," Rivera said Tuesday's practice. "He wants to compete and he
wanted to make it happen. This is his nature. The ball against all rooted in
his competitors." This side, Rivera said there is nothing to prevent Newton to play at least
in the first half of this year the patriot. "No, unless we absolutely
terrible, they will kill us," Rivera said. "I don't want to happen. I
hope we go out to compete with those guys, do our work. "As the game goes
and progresses, we'll decide how much longer we want to keep him in." Newton started 1-for-5 passing for 5 yards against Kansas City, then completed three of his final four attempts
for 60 yards to help Carolina
to a 14-6 halftime lead. "Truthfully, he was in for one more drive than I
really wanted him to be," Rivera said. "But he was feeling good. The
trainers felt confident about the ankle. The offensive line was playing well
and he'd just come off the touchdown drive. "I figured, 'What the heck,
we'll give him one more.' Then when I told him he was done we got into an
argument because he wanted to do the two-minute drill. I said, 'No, enough is
enough.'" Rivera for Chiefs plan is like the third preseason game when the
coach is usually played their starters for three quarters. His reasoning is
short a week to prepare New England team, and
the body may not find enough effort. He and his staff did not put forward New England game plan. But as a result of Newton need more repeat
in the case of the game to improve time and a whole new group of wide receiver,
it will be a factor. "We increase his practice so he got those
represented," Rivera said. "We will see how it is. But you can't
simulate the game speed. "Newton
did at least one thing to make Rivera happy. He on Monday, according to the
treatment of the session, he has been in the whole recovery although there is
no adverse effects in the process of the game. "I am beautiful, he do what
he needs to be done." Rivera said.
