Tin Foil Hat time. (TFH)

Is it possible that the fractures Cam suffered occurred at an earlier date but were not discovered until this accident? We all remember the game he was having difficulty getting up out of the huddle against the Eagles. It's entirely possible the reason he was having issues was because of his back and not because of his ankles as many people theorized.

You can remove your hat after you give a response agreeing with me.

He'd have had pain in his back if this happened before.

No prior discussion this season included any mention of back pain.

The way he was standing up during the Philly game looked a lot less like pain in his leg and more like a back or rib issue. Like I said, run foil hats.

However is it totally uncommon for teams to not mention pain or other injuries on a report? No. Is it possible cam concealed it? Yes. Is it also possible Cam had smaller fractures there that didn't cause immense pain and that this aggravated them.

How would it not have been disovered? The pain is strong enough and in a specific area that surley Newton would notice it and alert a trainer. He also wouldve proably had to miss a game, as the other Qb's have. Coaches and trainers wouldve noticed his reaction through dealing with the pain and wouldve inquired.

We all watched the same Philly game and saw the grimace throughout the night. Given Cams need to not disappoint people, in his own mind, it's possible he didn't disclose the pain in that area.

I mentioned this in another thread. It was mentioned by Zod in the podcast and discussed with jonathan jones. It was decided that the injury was from the crash,

I see. It was decided but not determined. Tin foil hat remains on sir. Ultimately the motions required to cause the injury can be similar in football and car accidents and it doesn't matter.

I was just searching for an explanation as to why Cam was in so much pain in Philadelphia.(I know he was sacked several times but it was unusual.)

ok now ask yourself if he got injured in Philly could he have seriously performed like he did last Sunday? I doubt it.

He's disclosed pain on other games he's been in. And given the status of his injury, this isnt some minor pain he could conceal and play with without trainers or coaches noticing. Id imagine it would be  noticeable the way he moves and looks, paticualry the first few days after.

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Yeah, I could jump right into the unbelievable Bryce debate now that some people are trying to flip the script because Bryce Young has, at most, a handful of decent games as a pro, but that's going to work itself out. Suffice it to say that I've seen better QBs (with an s) in a Panthers uniform, and I've certainly seen better QBs be drafted while we're playing around with Bryce, one of them who beat the crap out of us already this season... Let's forget about Bryce (and his markedly underwhelming play since he's been here); I think that most sane fans will agree that drafting him was an error, but it happens. Sure, it doesn't happen to the tune of King's ransom---including your main receiver---but it happens. You bet, you lose. Speaking of receivers...and betting and losing... Oh, man, we drafted Xavier Legette. Yes, just like with Bryce, I've entered "the dark side." Some Huddlers were telling us from the beginning, and they were right. But, I'm not apologizing for waiting to see what a guy's got before making my decision on him. X was a one-year wonder at South Carolina who parlayed some really nice production that season, a great personality and thick country accent, into becoming a first round pick (but only in Carolina). For Dan Morgan and company, He was a big swing that has turned into a big whiff (and I can still feel the ill breeze from that one). Sh¡t happens, right? Well, not so fast. Ladd McConkey was the decidedly more polished receiver who was literally ready to hit the ground running as soon as stepping onto the field as a pro. Ladd was never the biggest guy (though not the smallest), but he was the guy that could run routes, always seemed to get open---no question---and had the same speed as X, but with legit quickness and nuanced shake and bake. But Dan chose the project. He chose the guy where the game speed looks more like a tractor trailer than a 5.0 mustang. Look, I've supported X (just like Bryce) many many a day, but no more. Now I'm not saying that I won't root for the guy. Just like with Bryce, he seems like a great kid. But as far as giving excuses for the kid, and, perhaps more importantly, waiting for some miraculous breakout, I'm done with that. I've seen enough. You don't draft a project for a project. And yes, Bryce had proven to be a project after his first season. In my mind, drafting a supposedly number one receiver that needs lots of development for a starting quarterback that needs immediate help to try and further his development is not going to lead to good things. Pick the surest guy. Or at least pick the one who appears to be the surest guy, because picking can be tricky... especially when you're too busy tricking yourself.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      Winning ain't gonna make my eyes lie to me. Context matters, and it will always matter in the game of football.

      That TD pass to Legette against Miami. Elite. The play where Bryce rolls right to buy time until Tet can reverse field.  Bryce pumps as multiple defenders close in.  He barely gets it away before he takes a big time hit.  Beautiful off platform throw and great catch by Tet.   The second TD to Tet against Dallas where Bryce dips and turns his shoulder in to evade the pass rusher.  Resets and finds Tet in the end zone. Dude embodies the Keep Pounding mantra.
