CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Derek Anderson apparently has heard enough about deflated footballs.
The Carolina Panthers backup quarterback finally expressed his feelings on the controversy surrounding the New England Patriots and under-deflated footballs during the AFC Championship via Twitter on Thursday.
Can we let the deflated ball thing go. They let us prepare the balls as we like. Tom likes his a little less air who cares.

Anderson, who was 2-0 as a starter this past season when Cam Newton was injured, didn’t hesitate to address questions fans had regarding his tweet, either.
@kscottcap well since when does every team in the league follow the rules.. Winning is more important than draft picks and money obviously.

So far, nothing on “Deflate-Gate’’ from Cam Newton, whose recent tweets have been about style.
