Cam to see foot specialist

Newton did.

He's admitted hiding the injury from the team.

And yes, that's lying.

A. There’s hurt and there’s injured. Football hurts. They almost always play hurt. So what did he “hide”  the first game he made some good throws, did some good things. It went downhill afterwards.

B. Notice the second game there was no “hiding” or playing though whatever pain he had. 
 

at that point it’s up to a coach to save the player from themselves.

would we want it the other way like so many players where they say they are injured and take plays and games off?

Could it be that the team wants him to see this doctor to okay his foot before they let him play?  If it's a setback I fear Cam may be done.  

See above

Id say thats speculation, jmo, he wouldnt be out the boot with absolutely no recovery. If this is truly the.case then he will have surgery, the sooner the better, and we will see him next season.

Jones isn't the only one saying that.

From reading the articles that have been written about him, the general tone seems to indicate that they're doing everything they can to avoid surgery, but in the end surgery might be the only option.

No Just fuggin no.  I completely disagree.  No sense throwing a rookie out there that has some potential , only to get to get his ass ripped apart by a sub par o line and poor coaching and have any confidence he has shattered.  That is moronic. 

That said if Cam is done and Allen gets hurt which is a definite possibility, we will see Grier.  But if Allen stays healthy he plays.

Oh look, Paa Langfart completely disagrees with something. Shocking.

Said no one ever.

He needs to put everything back together, take time to train and get reps, and at this point in his career it is imperative he be more considerate of his health. I don't want to see Cam in the field until he can protect himself, his name, and the future of this franchise in that order.

Any thoughts on how long that might take?

In your opinion, what's the maximum time frame the franchise should limp along waiting on Cam to come back?  At what point should those in charge be allowed to move on?

(don't misinterpret this for saying the team should move on right now....just trying to get a feel for and bracket proper expectations)

If surgery is the only option or even the best longterm option i hope they do it now rather then wait, however i would think with this particular injury if surgery was required it would be obvious. I will choose to remain optomistic until I hear he is requiring surgery because I truly want to see our sensational QB at 100% lighting defenses up! Hope for it sooner then later but we will see, it is what is, we can't change it unfortunately.

Cam is done for this season, bet on it.  He’s not any better after 6 weeks and 4 more won’t do it either.  It’s quite funny to me how some of you are questioning the trainers and medical staff on this team.  You can bet they are trying to get Cam to do exactly what needs to be done....Rosinskis comments shed light on what is likely really going on.

i'll bet somebody $10 they've wanted him to get surgery from the beginning because he's needed it and he's refused and tried to heal it without.  he's done this twice  before.     he believes in some whack science - and by whack i mean not real

It's very amusing how the Panthers medical staff flips between incompetent and competent depending on the player and the agenda.

Prime examples, Daryl Williams and Cam Newton.

Obviously our staff isn't Washington levels of incompetent, but we've seen these issues fairly frequently over the years with different players. One thing hasn't changed, that's the head coach who is in charge.
