For the second straight day, Carolina Panthers quarterback Vinny Testaverde was held out of practice. Although the reason for him missing practice is listed as a team decision, basically the 44-year-old is simple sore from playing football at his age.

   Testaverde's absence raises the possibility the Panthers might start rookie Matt Moore on Sunday vs. Seattle.

   Coach John Fox said he will make a game-time decision as to who will start at quarterback.

   There's no chance the Panthers will go back to David Carr at this point in the season.
