Cam Newton’s former coach ‘would never bet against’ the new Patriots quarterback Bernd Buchmasser 6/30/2020 CDC issues sweeping mask mandate for planes, public transportation in U.S.

After losing future Hall of Famer Tom Brady in free agency, the New England Patriots are heading into the 2020 season with some major questions at the most important position in the game. Adding Cam Newton on a one-year deal could be the answer to some of them — at the very least he offers a veteran presence and raises the current group’s floor — but the former Carolina Panthers quarterback is far from a certain bet to work out either.

Newton ended both the 2018 and 2019 season on the sidelines due to injury, and has never been able to quite reach the same level of play that he showed during his 2015 MVP campaign. That said, his ceiling in New England’s offensive system remains intriguing and one of his former companions feels strongly about his chances to still be a viable and healthy starting quarterback in the NFL: former Panthers head coach Ron Rivera.

“He’s headed in the right direction. I mean, he’s probably about as healthy as it gets from what I’ve seen on video. I think he’s ready to bust out,” Rivera said during an appearance on the McNeil & Parkins Show on 670 The Score on Monday when speaking about Newton’s physical state. “I would never bet against the young man, that’s for sure.”

Rivera certainly knows a thing or two about the newest Patriots quarterback. The two joined the organization in the same year, with Rivera taking over as head coach and Newton getting drafted first overall to serve as Carolina’s new starting quarterback. Over their nine seasons together, the team won three division titles and reached the Super Bowl once — all while Newton played in 125 regular season games and seven playoff contests.

Despite the change of scenery, however, Rivera still is confident in his former pupil’s abilities.

“Don’t bet against him. I really wouldn’t,” he said. “First of all, you got to know who he is and understand what all he’s gone through. He’s a guy that’s always tried to do things, I think, because he’s felt the pressure. He felt the pressure of being the number one overall pick. He felt the pressure of having won the Heisman Trophy and being the number one overall pick. He felt the pressure of being a black quarterback, with all the stuff that’s been heaped on him.”

Under Rivera’s tutelage, Newton grew to become one of the best dual-threat quarterbacks in NFL history. The coach and his new team, the Washington Redskins, opted against bringing the 31-year-old on board after his release from the Panthers earlier this year, but he still believes in the former Pro Bowler who will now compete for a starting job in New England against second-year man Jarrett Stidham and veteran Brian Hoyer.

“He’s really had to find his way through it,” said Rivera, “and he’s done a great job with it.”

When the Patriots (6-6) travel to Los Angeles to play the Rams (8-4) to open NFL Week 14 on 'Thursday Night Football' (8:20 p.m. ET, Fox, NFL Network, Amazon Prime Video), they will look to keep improving their AFC wild-card hopes. Meanwhile, the Rams will be focused on making sure they remain in first place in the NFC West.

The game is a Super Bowl 53 rematch, in which the Patriots defeated the Rams 13-3. With the Patriots coming off a 45-0 shutout of the Chargers and the Rams playing excellent defense with Aaron Donald and Jalen Ramsey, the sequel should also be a rather low-scoring slugfest.

Bill Beiichick and Sean McVay are two of the NFL's best coaches and both teams will be well prepared for a short-week affair.

Here's everything to know about betting on Patriots vs.Rams in Week 14, including updated odds, trends and our expert's prediction for 'Thursday Night Football.'

Patriots vs. Rams odds

  • Spread: Patriots by 5
  • Over/under: 45
  • Point spread odds: Patriots +205, Rams -245

The Patriots have some momentum with the big Chargers win in the same stadium in Los Angeles. The Rams smashed the Cardinals on the road, whom the Patriots handled well in Week 12. This is an unusual line between field goal and TD, but that makes this an easier game to navigate.

Patriots vs. Rams all-time series

The Patriots lead the rivalry 9-5. That includes two Super Bowl wins after the 2001 and 2018 seasons. The Patriots have won six straight in the series. Before then, the Rams won four consecutive games going back to 1989.

Three trends to know

— 94 percent of spread bettors like the Rams to win by a touchdown or more as the better overall team with a stronger defense.

— 85 percent of over/under bettors think the point total is too low despite the presence of two red-hot defenses.

— The Patriots are 6-6 against the spread this season. The Rams are 8-4 against the spread this season. The Patriots and Rams have seen their totals go over only four times each.

Three things to watch

Cam Newton vs. Aaron Donald

Newton is at his best being able to stand tall in the pocket and do some power-rushing up the middle as the Patriots' starting quarterback. With their limited receivers, the Patriots want to avoid Newton throwing too much, leaning on his running and those of his backs. If the Rams stop the run, the Patriots would need to find a way to soften things up, putting pressure on Newton to make some big pass plays downfield.

Jared Goff vs. the Patriots' defense

The Patriots will likely work to take away wide receiver Cooper Kupp first away from Goff, forcing him to spread the ball around and the Rams to win by being more effective on the ground with a rushing committee now led by rookie Cam Akers. Goff has been up-and-down all season.

Jalen Ramsey vs. Stephon Gilmore

The Rams have their brash shutdown corner in Ramsey. The Patriots have their reigning NFL defensive player of the year at the position in Glimore. Gilmore will likely be charged with covering Robert Woods, while Ramsey likely won't travel with no true Patriots No. 1.

Stat that matters

291.3. That's how many total yards of offense on average the Rams give up per game, second in the NFL. The Patriots are No. 22 in total offense. Nothing has to give there. This is a brutal matchup for Newton and all of New England, so there will be more of an emphasis to win via big plays on defense and special teams like the Patriots did last week in Los Angeles.

Patriots vs. Rams prediction

This feels like another ugly game with little offense. The Rams still have more legitimate skill players and will have a steady, balanced game plan with McVay. The Patriots will scheme to keep the game close despite Newton's struggles, but they simply won't find enough offense to win and reward their defense again.
