Having our weekly five questions with the enemy, I decided to ask Cat Crave on what we can expect for the rest of 2014 and what to expect for 2015.

1.  How healthy is Cam Newton going into Sunday’s game?

It’s often impossible to tell exactly how hurt Cam Newton is, because he is so willing to put his body on the line for the team.  Newton had 12 rushing attempts in his sole game since his car accident left him with two traverse process fractures in his back. Where it is perhaps more obvious, is in his completion percentage.  Taking lots of hits will effect anyone’s accuracy.  Still, he’s probably about as healthy as he has been all season—not saying much considering that he started the year on the bench due to his ankle recovery.
