There will be no closure on the Cam situation for months

it's the same as any other transaction being worked out right now. The details can be put in place anytime you want. It just can't be finalized until later.

Not exactly the same. In a normal situation, teams could get a physical done before even agreeing on terms since we’ve given permission, and it could happen immediately. They could fly him in on a second’s notice for a physical. Also unique is Cam’s health situation. No team at all would trade anything for him without having their doctors get a look at him. Unhealthy players like Cam don’t get traded very often, they’re usually cut. But this is a former MVP, he has more value than most, even with health uncertainty. This is not the same as any other transaction. No other player’s situation is as clouded in mystery of injury as Cam. Maybe Tua in the draft is comparable.

The divide between looking for a deal and actually finding one that all parties will agree to is MASSIVE.

I don't think Cam's representatives can bridge that divide.

When there's massive turnover with a team and organization it's probably safe to assume that same turnover in fanbase, at least for awhile. The Panthers that we all rooted for are soon to no longer exist. There's positives and negatives to that but there's going to be fan turnover. Hell, even our media guys are leaping off this flaming ship.

That’s all good. I’ll be here with the ship. Keep Pounding.

Does a physical have to happen at team facilities?

If they want their doctors to look at him, yes. Otherwise at this time can only have a neutral physician check players out. PFT and others have been suggesting that no team will even bother with that and will just wait to do physicals of their own before anything is official.

Yes, Cam Newton potentially leaving is absolutely the one and only change made within this organization and team within the past two years...

Good grief, man.

No way they keep him on the team for 2 more months. He will get traded or he will get cut. There is no more waiting. They are trying to sign Teddy Bridgewater for goodness sake. The Cam era is over!

He has been hurt for two years, lost the last 11 games in a row he played for us

we will get over losing him...just hope we get value back in a trade
