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.

    • I wonder if they'd consider trading Rasheed Walker to a team that needs tackle help but missed out in the draft?
    • LOL. This is such a Panthers fan take.  Anyone who falls to us must suck because some other team didn't take them before.  We got lucky with Lemon, Thieneman, and Freeling all falling to us (honestly any of the three is a A+) but the WR and S positions are much deeper than the LT position in this draft.  We got the LT w/ the most upside at 19.  Mauigoa played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the nfl.  Spano played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the NFL due to short arms.  Blake Miller played RT in college and is not as good as Freeling.  Proctor is a true LT but his ability to handle quick edge's worries me (see Icky).  Freeling is a true LT and a gifted pass protector.  Many think he has a very high ceiling and will benefit from not having to start right away.  This is how you build a franchise.  
    • After watching Cam get killed for years behind a bad Oline and having to watch the 2021 and 2023 Olines I will never complain about this team putting resources into that spot.  We got a true LT who could really push Rasheed Walker for the day 1 job. Go back and watch Iceky's draft profile from 2022 and all the talk was Ickey would be an all-pro guard in a zone blocking scheme, but he could play LT in a gap power run scheme. That's why Ickey looked really good when Wilks took over and we just started running gap run plays and just mauled people up front but under Canales we've been more of a zone running team. Ickey can survive at LT with his pass blocking but his true strength will always be his ability to just move guys in the run game and that's a skill set that's better used at guard.  Take another OT later on day 3 to learn from Moton to take over RT in a couple of years and let Walker and Freeling battle it out for the day 1 LT job then next offseason trade one of Hunt of Lewis and let Ickey move inside to guard.
