Cam out

[Ruff]

You think Cam would have been the first player in history to play with a hairline fracture of a rib? Um....no. Every player not 100% can have further injury. This is the NFL.

And every injury is different, no matter what it is. Every human body is different. Obviously there was concern here.

We all know deep down this will be a loss

This is fine, Bucs would have been targeting that rib all game, and you guys think our OL can protect him all game? If he is not 100 percent, then I say sit him.

Well, we need to sit him next week as well because Lord knows Suh is going to target those ribs. 

 

Anyways, he's out and its time to move on. Let's go Anderson, but most importantly, defense shut TB out!

What good is a week to fractured ribs? If he has to sit out, he might as well be put on IR. He's going to be dealing with this pain all year. If he feels the same now as any other week, what good was it to sit him in a division game that we could need in the future to get into the playoffs?

 

so you're saying if we did start cam, all the sacks and knockdowns he'll inevitably take today won't make a difference in the healing process?

 

doesn't quite make sense.

Again a fractured rib is a fractured rib. A week is nothing for it to heal. Has nothing to do with knowing more than the medical staff. They will be having the same concern every week. Fractures take a while to heal. Read a book.

Then it may be weeks. Obviously the staff agreed this was the best decision. Again, he's out. Deal with it and stop being a whiny bitch.

Cam saw that All Pro DT our side and said figured he don't want these problems.

Lol @ this being a shock to some of you.

I'm saying if he needs to sit today, he might as well go to IR cause of the length of time the fractured rib will need to heal.

Yeah, if that's the case, then you should keep Cam out for weeks or months until his ribs heal; cause they won't be any time soon.

 

On the other hand, let's see how/what the Panthers offense does?

 

[Hushed_Llama]

I'm fine with us going 15-1

[Sloth]

If Newton doesn't have range of motion or can't follow through his throws well, it's the right call.

 

We went from about an 80% to 40% chance of winning this game though, unfortunately.

Time for DA to earn some of that $$$

lol at you being mad. OK, I hope you aren't a "whiny bitch" when we miss out on the playoffs.

No shock, and while I hate it, I love it. DA is a pro and we have a great chance today. Risk/reward.
