Does not sound like someone putting the message out that Cam will be the leader of the team next year. I don’t understand the vibes they are putting out on Cam. Why wouldn’t you at least fake it to help trade value. What the benefit of being so bleak? 

Teams spend a ton of money on medical staff and some very qualified physicians will be performing his physical. I doubt any trade suitors are even paying attention to what Tepper tells David Newton.

Our best qb is being pushed out the door and people are on here celebrating that fact and making alts so they can ham it up. Morons

Play or trade, both depend on Cam's health status. Is he 100% or less? Hard to reasonably speculate beforehand.  Healthy, he is better than anyone that can be drafted or signed as a FA. Healthy, he has the most "draft value" of any player on the team, IMO

Of course that’s what he said.  Cam’s not gone unless his health doesn’t check out and those that have been salivating at the mouth to get a good ol boy at QB will try to extrapolate more from Teppers comments than that, but that’s all it is. 

Understand that for most, race is not the issue.  It has something to do with being injured for about half his current contract after 8 years of being hammered more than any other QB in league history.  I am upset they never build a solid OL around him--but that is not my cross to bear as a ticket holder.  Gettlemen drafted Moton, Williams, and signed Kalil.  2 sucked, but at least he tried.  Marty?  SInce Cam was drafted: 

2011:

• 6th : Zach Williams
• 7th: Lee Ziemba

2013:

• 4th: Edmund Kugbila

2014:

• 3rd Trai Turner

2015: (Gettlemen)

• 4th:  Daryl Williams

2017: (Gettlemen)

• 2nd: Taylor Moton

_____________Cam Injured ____________

2019:

• 2nd: Greg Little
• 5th: Dennis Daley

Is that how you support a franchise QB?  We drafted offensive linemen:

• First Round:  0
• Second Round: 3 (Amini Silatolu, Taylor Moton, Greg Little)
• Third Round: 1 (Trai Turner)
• Fourth Round: 2 (Edmund Kugbila, Daryl Williams)
• Fifth Round: 1 (Dennis Daley)
• Sixth Round: 1 (Zach Williams)
• Seventh Round: 1 (Lee Ziemba)

Cam never had a chance--how do you only draft 4 OL in NINE YEARS on day 1 or 2 of the draft (rounds 1-3)? That is 4 of 25 1-3 round picks went to the OL after drafting a franchise QB.   And one of those four is Silatolu? 

Taylor Moton was Gettlemen's pick.  Marty?  grabbed a third round G (Turner).

Man they are really trying to piss off the fans

There seems to be a better way to do the messaging on this. Then again, not my billions.

Sounds like we're trading Cam once he's healthy enough to pass a physical.

Because that’s not how Tepper is. He doesn’t seem to play word games. That’s part of why I like him so far. He says what he means, no more no less.

Like when no decision was gonna be made on Ron Rivera till the season was over?

[Cpt slay a ho]

For what it’s worth cam has look healthy in some of his recent post on Instagram and Facebook.

of course different than football shape but way better then he had before surgery

For those who haven’t watched the video, need to go back and watch how coy he is and how tries to dodge the commitment to Cam.

When can you remember a team not committing publicly to there Quarterback? There’s nothing wrong with saying, we stand 100% behind Cam and can’t wait for him to get healthy again. Unless of course if you are planning on moving on from him.

The healthy part to me, seems to be that they can’t trade or attempt to trade him until he’s healthy. But this seems pretty clear they are prepared to move on from him.

 

Right--analyze what he does not say, not what he says. 

[Chief Keek]

Welp it's a shame Cam is basically indirectly being shown the door. I just hope they find him a good landing spot.

[(ATL'ien)CamNewton]

It's amazing people can get from these recent comments Cam is out the door.
