Cam Newton plans to have foot surgery

Good! He has almost a full year to recover. We have a year to fix up our line. Cam didn't strain his recovering shoulder. And Cam has saved himself an entire season of abuse over the last two seasons. I think the last two years may have prolonged his career.

I hope he bounces back stronger than ever next season!

Pretty sure anytime there is a ''chance'' an injury can heal without surgery you take that ''chance''. This is another persons body being opened up not your own. You listen to any current or former player they all reference waiting over the knife if there is an option. 

It's media outlets, and casuals that feed that narrative of have the surgery immediately even if medical PROFESSIONALS are advising this has the opportunity to heal on it's own, and that surgery is the last resort to repair the injury. 

Likely didn't happen a month ago because we still had a long-shot at the playoffs and potentially a hope of his return.

    • That should have been this year. Tough to sell to anyone worth getting when this crew is going into year 3 on the hot seat. I still think keeping Evero will sink them all after last year's showing. If/when he is scapegoated they need to show improvement or it's likely to be so eone else's problem next year. I do agree in principle tho, it all should have happened after last year's problems. 
    • I've listened to some things that have calmed the "Bryce was flat out terrible" to just "he was really bad" in Week 1. It's Year 3 though, and that shouldn't be the barometer. I've got 1% hope left for Bryce, and that's just blind homerism coming out.  I'm scared that as much emphasis as the team places on advanced stats and PFF that the team *doesn't* think Bryce was that bad in Week 1. Couple that with so many of the QBs in the league looking rough, offense being down in general, and I feel like there's a lot of "what if's" going on in the building instead of facing the music.  Lose Week 2, and we should switch the main focus back to building/churning the roster, evaluating young guys, and hoping our next QB can have a Jayden Daniels level of impact. As we're all well too aware of, QB is a crapshoot a lot of the time. Admit we made a bad pick, and go draft another. And another. Repeat until correct.     
    • I wouldn't want any of those starting as a rookie on day 1.  That said, we need a vet, that is not Andy Dalton, that can be the starter while a prospect grows and learns on the sidelines.
