"Cool," Newton said when asked how it felt to throw for the first time in nearly six months, "a lot of anticipation. Obviously, it's still not 100 percent, but seeing the ball come out of my hand in a throwing motion was good."

In all, Newton threw 45 passes to Vermillion in sets of 15 tosses from three different throwing positions. The farthest throw traveled about 10 lockers, from Luke Kuechlyicon-article-link.gif's to Kawann Shorticon-article-link.gif's. So, yeah, this wasn't the equivalent of Newton escaping a rush before launching the ball downfield. But it's exactly where the Panthers hoped he'd be at this point in his recovery.

"When I say it's not 100 percent, I'm noting the range of motion part," Newton said. "Like if you sleep with your legs hanging off your bed the whole night, you're going to wake up and be super stiff. Or like sitting on your hands, or sitting in an awkward position and finally getting up and moving – that's how I feel."

Maybe the surgery can help him work on his footwork?  Wishful thinking.  

I think, at this point,  we need to just accept that it is what it is. When he steps into throws and squares his shoulders, he's deadly accurate.

That's rare though, man.  Sucks so bad, dude.  Why Shula and others never worked with him to fix his damn footwork is beyond me.  God I hope we haven't seen the best of him.

I dunno, I'll take 2015 Cam any day of the week and twice on Sunday.
