Another tidbit from my source

Was talking to him yesterday and about what has been going on in camp and he said there are rumors that Cam might not be ready for SF. They were hoping that his shoulder would be responding better at this point but the scar tissue has yet to relax and pushing it could be even worse than missing the start of the season. He said the training staff is working hard to get the scare tissue to release and the first had hopes he would be ready for the preseason but it's looking like that's not going to happen. Of course the Panthers are keeping a lid on this but I expect they won't be able to too much longer.

Thanks for the info. It doesn't surprise me. Despite Cam having the best medical care available and his reputation for taking care of himself it happens. It sucks, but it's life. I hope he heals fully and properly, if that takes a little extra time then so be it. It does, however, worry due to DA's struggles this TC. Much ado about nothing perhaps, but we'll see soon enough.

I'm speculating but it might be why TC hasn't seen many new formations. Shula probably will enter week one with DA starting and nothing really spectacular on offense till Newton is back. We will rely on the D to keep us up and going.

Best medical care?  Anyone can see him playing in week 17 and putting off surgery was MO RON IC.  Don't even have to stay at a Holiday Inn Express to see it.

I don't see it as moronic at all with hindsight being what it is. They knew he wouldn't do any more harm. They hoped PT and a non-surgical treatment would fix it. Once they saw it wouldn't, they operated. I'm completely fine with all of that as it makes perfect sense to me.

My source says otherwise.  To each his own.

The season was over and our franchise QB had a torn rotator cuff in his shoulder. It was insane to have him out there.

I hope you're source is right lol. Just giving it how I get it. 

Did not mean to be condescending.  Please except my apologies but I have been told a very different tale and your post is the only time I saw a chance to share it.  Keep  Pounding brother.

Playing against the Bucs with even the slightest chance something goes wrong and, "best case", we win the game, hurting our draft position and helping theirs, was, is, and always will be, utterly asinine.

      Panther Needs (3/14): The Shift to Defense

      By shaq · Posted

      Darrell Jackson would be a fantastic pickup for us, I think he could replace 80% of what A’Shawn gave us last year. With more passing rush upside going forward in the future, I’m a big proponent of large framed defensive tackles. Pairing Derrick Brown with another 6’5 35inch arm length DT would be so fun to watch. Let’s continue being huge in the middle, allow our linebackers to flow to the ball uninterrupted.

      Fully agree that the best thing to do is ignore them, which takes a away their thrill of thinking they got to you.

      Panther Needs (3/14): The Shift to Defense

      I agree with you on the pick of Thienemen in the first. I think he will still be there and he's a smart, fast and sturdy player. He's who we need back there. In the second, I like Rodriguez over Golday. I agree that off the ball linebackers are desperately needed here, even with our great FA pick up. I think with our third pick, we're going to dip into OT territory instead of the D-line. While I agree that we need another disruptor at the point of attack that is stout enough to just stonewall a center and a guard at the same time, we've got a shaky and expensive O-line at the present that is just about to age out of the game. I think we snag Blake Miller out of Clemson here and give him a year behind Moton to learn and put some weight and strength on. He can also jump right in and play right guard at any time. Also, and this might sound crazy, but anyone who has put up with multiple seasons at Clemson will be able to take the heat and humidity of training camp at the start of the season and early games against the NFCSouth.  Beyond that, your guess is as good as mine. We do need that QB for competition and realistically to study for back-up. Luke Altmyer out of Illinois seems to fit the mold of the point guard type QB that they want from Bryce. That'd make an apples to apples situation that could make coaching and game planning easy. On the other hand North Dakota State's Cole Payton could be an intriguing choice as well as a big dual threat guy. Both could be there for our fourth pick or both could be gone. Will QBs continue to slide this season like last? Who knows?
