Rivera 100% new Cam was injured. You don't work side by side with someone for 9 years and not know when they are trying to hide something from you. Just like Cam took accountability for being his own worst enemy, RIvera needs to know when he needs to step in and make a decision. He's the head coach fro crying out loud.

A lot of clarity,

Out of all the stuff he’s battled through, Who’d know a foot injury would hamper him the most, but it makes the most since for a guy needing to step in his throws to avoid strain on his shoulder after surgery and one of the most dominant rushing qbs in the nfl.

im a lot more hopeful we will see more cam

from the first 8 games last year when he returns, that’s scary man

Both can be true.

Ron almost certainly knew Cam was still hurt and lied about it to not let the opponents know so they still had to gameplan that he could run. Also so it didn’t get targeted in a pile. You don’t call 1 QB run for Cam Newton in 2 games without knowing something is up.

Cam was also hiding just how bad it actually was and that it was affecting literally everything he did. He says he was thinking about his foot every play and not letting anyone get close to it when he was in the pocket and trying to not step into wrong when he was throwing.

So the first surgery was a temporary fix that didn’t work? Why didn’t they just do the permanent fix first?

Wondered that as well. Also why didn’t they do the permanent fix after the 2017 season? Rather than waiting another year.

Feel like something has to be lost in translation there between Cam and the doctors.

Only thing I can possibly think of is that they thought there would be scar tissue build up that they would have to go back and cleanup at some point but hoped it wouldn’t be necessary. His arm strength was fine in 2017 the year after the first surgery. He was slinging deep balls against the Saints in the playoffs.

Cam said what I’ve been saying that a lot of you are still not trying to hear.

 

While many of you have blamed the medical specialists and raked Ron and other various staff over the coals, ultimately this all came down to Cam being honest with the staff about his physical well-being. 
 

Rehab is a two way street and the player has to be honest and self-aware about where they stand with their function.

Great video. Love our QB.  Of course he’s going to say he can play. He’s a warrior and has given his body for the team for 9 years. Ron knew he was hurt, there’s no denying that either. And should have had a more difficult conversation than “you good? Ok you good. I’ll keep riding your coattails”

Enjoyed the video. I also like that Cam has this platform to be able to speak openly and honestly without the trash local media and ESPN intentionally misrepresenting what he says. Even though Cam admitted to hiding his injury, I'm still not letting Ron off the hook. This is the same idiot that kept trotting Cam out on the field with a shoulder injury.

    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
    • 7 wins this year and some of those against really good teams and yall think Canales might get fired? Lol Good luck getting a better coach in here if that happens.
