Panthers will go with Testaverde against the Saints

Carolina Panthers will use quarterback Vinny Testaverde for the game against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday.

Panthers will go with Testaverde against the Saints Carolina Panthers (4-6) head coach John Fox has made the decision and will start veteran quarterback Vinny Testaverde in the Week 12 NFL game against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday. "We make decisions based on who gives us the best chance...Right now we think that's Vinny," coach Fox said on Wednesday. Testaverde was signed late in the season to back-up David Carr, who was filling in for Jake Delhomme, lost for the season with an elbow injury. But Carr failed to prove himself on the field and even though he is healthy, John Fox will go with 44-year-old Testaverde in attempt to turn the Panthers fortune around. The Saints, however, remain the favorite to win the game, at the online sportsbook Bodog Sports New Orleans is listed -3 points against the spread for the game with Carolina.
