Boy would a saints loss make it interesting the last couple weeks. Playing like shit so far, but so are the Panthers.

Jesus H. Christ man. The Panthers should be up by two TD’s. They can’t get out of their own damn way.

Yep, bad football, or good defense being played. Take your pick.

Nope. A LOT of unforced errors by the Panthers. A LOT.

You're right. Missed that part. Sorry.

I'll tell you what. I'll take Trubisky over Cam Newton. He did not look good tonight, and has not looked great for a while.

Panthers go out with a whimper and I am sorry if anyone likes him here, but Cam Newton sucks, bad. Injured or not.

so what is the deal with Newton? he didn't look shitty early in the year and the Panthers looked like they would present a challenge for their division ... and then .....

so is he hurt? are other key players hurt?

I think his shoulder is trash... he looks like he's trying to shotput the ball on some of his down field throws

I believe his shoulder is hurt again.

His throwing motion, while never textbook, looked worse than usual. I could not tell from the angles of the camera where the hell he was throwing the ball.

well, our questions have been answered :

Cam Newton to sit out Panthers' final two games with shoulder injury

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton will not play on Sunday against Atlanta and is expected to be shut down the final two games as he continues to deal with a sore throwing shoulder, a league source confirmed to ESPN.

Newton has been battling soreness in his right shoulder since throwing 22 passes in the fourth quarter of a come-from-behind win against Philadelphia on Oct. 21.

Newton arrived at practice on Wednesday without a helmet and wearing sweats. Backup Taylor Heinicke is taking the first-team snaps.

The decision to shut down the 2015 NFL MVP's season came two days after Newton struggled in Monday night's 12-9 loss to New Orleans that left the Panthers (6-8) with less than a 1 percent chance of making the playoffs.

Newton completed 16 of 29 pass attempts with no touchdowns and one interception for a season-low 52.5 passer rating against the Saints.

Afterward, Newton expressed frustration over the constant stiffness and soreness in his shoulder. He said nothing he has tried, from acupuncture to massages, has worked.

"You can't rub magic dust on it, go to this or that person, have the placebo things done where you think certain things are what they are -- and you come out and you're still the same,'' Newton said at the time. "Over the past couple of weeks nothing has really changed.''

Three weeks ago, before a loss at Tampa Bay, Newton said he was playing the best football of his career. He proceeded to throw four interceptions against the Buccaneers.

During Carolina's six-game losing streak Newton has thrown at least one interception in every game.
