Rivera said that Cam is not going on IR, so I'm a bit confused.

Heinicke is going to start. Who is his backup?

Sure seems like Cam is going to be asked to step in if something happens to Heinicke.

This is pure bullshit. Cam should be put on IR and his shoulder given top priority. I don't care if the bagger from Food Lion is the backup, but how do you justify putting Cam in uniform AT ALL?

Idiots.

Again, this entire organization is being run by a bunch of hillbilly bumbling buffoons.

Cam is being inactivated but not being put on IR. How stupid is that? No one even cares about their star QB's health. It's all about Ron and the 0.00004% chance of making the playoffs.

Will be interesting to see how the offense does with Heineke.  Its been quite a while since weve seen a qb other than Cam in a regular season game.  

[Still Brooklyn]

I want to see a trick play where he punts, since he did it in college.

Idiots.

PFT reported that they plan to promote Kyle Allen from the practice squad.

That'll mean somebody else is getting dumped from the main roster.

This will be Ron's new excuse as to why we missed the playoffs. He has a new one every time it happens, as if Cam playing with a broken shoulder has anything to do with Ron's clock management, knowing when to take timeouts vs. not, when to throw challenge flags, when to go for it on 4th down, etc.

Cam being injured IS the reason we are missing the playoffs. It's actually impressive we stayed within 7 points the last 5 weeks with a QB who can't throw.

True, but it is disappointing that it took this long to address your starting QB's debilitating health issue which has been glaringly obvious for the last 6 weeks.

No, actually he's not.  Ron and his defense are the main reason they are missing the playoffs.  Newton's condition was just the cherry on top.

I know what Cam is watching on Netflix tonight

 

Off topic but this is a GREAT movie. Went in thinking it was some random rom-com Chick flick - Completely wrong. Just a good all around movie.

True, the defense until Monday night has been horrible.  

The frustrating part is in both instances defense/offense Rivera had the ability to address these shortcomings and chose to wait until the season was lost and much effort on the part of the staff and players was wasted.

Marty Hurney is to blame for his failure to acquire/draft/develop a backup to Cam.

This isn't really news. This was to be expected. 

 

lol only if you haven't been paying attention to anything.

Rivera said he wasn't going to sit Cam now all the sudden he has to sit.

Literally the opposite of expected.
