I give him a percentage between 3-28%

Never said he wasn't. Not once. 

Have always said it is a possibility, just like I did in 2014. Oddly enough, it was met with the same amount of disbelief here. 

Like I said, you have way more access and see more than I do.  Lately it's seems like your opinion is leading more toward he isn't going to start since you keep bringing it up ie threads/polls.  You may even know something you are not at liberty to discuss openly.   Not accusing you of being wrong.  I am not saying there isn't a possibility he won't start.  Just seems like you are pushing the Cam isn't going to be ready week 1 vibe.

I started a thread very early this year about the possibility of Cam's recuperation going into the season, so I wouldn't be surprised if he sits.

Being that he's throwing 20 yard routes now, I'd guess that he'll be playing.

The problem with these types of polls is that it's purely a guess, so with many on the "yes" side, it's simply a means to buttress their wishful thinking.

And the no answers are influenced by the obvious pessimists. It goes both ways.

 

My yes is based on what the coaches have said and the thoughts shared by those who are covering the team.

I hear you, but what would really be gained from being pessimistic? Really nothing, unless someone just wants to pile on Cam Newton (I guess you may have a few of those here). 

I just see all the this-player-will-be-fine-regardless-or-simply-because-I-said-so comments regarding these health issues, when you really don't have the answer, as useless.

We can hope for the best and prepare for the worst, but accept reality when it happens and deal in reality if necessary.

The next two games will dictate his game one appearance.

It'd look really bad for the organization if he missed regular season time, especially since they held off on the surgery for so long after the season ended.

Byrd getting two touchdowns from Cam Newton in week one a in and around like what they use to give Ginn and a deep bomb like they used to do Ginn. #keeppounding

It depends if Ron thinks our o line is ready... San Fran will be coming for his head like Denver last year.

Refs aren't ready for that poo either they won't know what to do when Cam gets drove into the ground 7 times

Cam played with an torn rotator. 

He'll play.

[Woodie]

I believe he'll play, but I expect a run heavy gameplan.  In fact, I'd expect to see more of the focus on the run game for the first few weeks.
