CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Carolina Panthers starting left tackle Michael Oher has entered the concussion protocol and will miss Sundays game at Atlanta.At the end of the week its a big deal, because for the most part youve game-planned already, coach Ron Rivera said following practice.Rivera said he was on his way to a meeting Friday when head trainer Ryan Vermillion notified him that Oher was experiencing symptoms of a concussion. He wasnt sure when Oher received a blow to the head that could have caused the symptoms, or if it was a non-football injury.He sat him down and did whatever the first steps of the protocol are and contacted the doctors, Rivera said of Vermillion. He came back and told me he was in the protocol.Theres no way you could pass the protocol in one day, a day in a half. Hes got to go through the whole process.That process typically takes at least a week.Rivera said the coaches will meet to discuss their options to replace Oher, whose life and football career was chronicled in the 2009 movie The Blind Side.The Panthers potentially could move right tackle Mike Remmers to the left side, and put Daryl Williams on the right. They also could leave Remmers on the right side and start Donald Hawkins or Williams on the left. Hawkins, a second-year player out of the University of Texas, has yet to start in the NFL.But the nice thing, one thing we do is the young guys get a lot of reps, so its not like these guys havent been working on these things, Rivera said.Rivera said much of what Carolina does will depend on adjustments offensive coordinator Mike Shula makes in the game plan with Oher out.Pressure on quarterback Cam Newton has been an issue during a 1-2 start for the defending NFC champions. He was sacked eight times and pressured 17 in Sundays loss to the Minnesota Vikings.Oher gave up two sacks and five hurries, according to Pro Football Focus.Newton is being sacked on 9.9 percent of his dropbacks, which would be the highest rate of his career. The Falcons, however, have pressured the quarterback only 17 percent on dropbacks, the third-lowest rate in the NFL.Since the start of last season, according to ESPN Stats & Information, Atlanta has the lowest rate (22 percent) of pressure on dropbacks.For the most part, weve got the game plan in, Rivera said. Mike and his guys will talk about the combination of guys, what works best with whatever combination we decide to go with.The Panthers spent much of the offseason trying to improve their depth on the line. When asked how comfortable he is with the improvements, Rivera said, Well find out.We feel pretty good about who we have, he added. We kept four extra guys, two tackles, a guard and center combination. Well see. Julian Weigl Dortmund Jersey .

Here are his mid-season NBA awards. MVP: (KEVIN DURANT-Thunder) - Has been sensational this season and more importantly, the most consistent player in the league. Considering that his team has been without star guard Russell Westbrook and with the free agent departure of sharpshooter Kevin Martin, hes had to carry the majority of the load to not only keep his team afloat but more importantly, at an elite level. Paco Alcacer Dortmund Jersey .J. -- Marshawn Lynch said Thursday it will be good to get back to football after the Seattle quiet talking running back wrapped up his final mandatory media session of Super Bowl week. Achraf Hakimi Jersey .Y. -- Marcell Dareus and the Buffalo Bills defence made life miserable for Super Bowl MVP Joe Flacco.Manchester City captain Vincent Kompany could be out for up to eight weeks with a calf injury, Belgium boss Marc Wilmots has said. The central defender was substituted early during Manchester Citys 0-0 draw with Dynamo Kiev in the Champions League on Tuesday, and has been left out of Wilmots squad for the friendly against Portugal on March 29.However, despite the Belgium coach revealing he expects Kompany to be out for six to eight weeks, Manchester City boss Manuel Pellegrini is hopeful that he will have his skipper back before the end of the season. Talking with the doctor, I think that Vincent has an injury in his other leg - not the same calf as last time. We will see the way he improves, but maybe in one month he can be ready so part of the season he can play, said Pellegrini.It is the third time this season that Kompany has suffered a calf problem, with the 29-year old featuring just 12 times in the Premier League in an injury-hit campaign.But, Pellegrini insists that Kompanys should be able to return before the end of the campaign.It is a new injury in the other calf, a little bit higher behind the knee, added the Chilean. It is simillar to [Aleksandar] Kolarov injury a month ago.ddddddddddddKolarov took around three weeks to one month to come back. Pellegrini (left) believes Kompany (right) could return earlier than Belgium boss Marc Wilmots expects Its very important the way he improves in the first two weeks that he starts working - its difficult now to say, but the first thing we think is that he can return in a month.Kompany will miss Sundays Manchester derby, live on Sky Sports, and will almost certainly be ruled out of Premier League clashes with Bournemouth and West Brom in early April, as well as the Champions League quarter-final double-header against Paris Saint-Germain on April 6 and April 12.
