“Hey, they whipped us a year ago, so there’s a challenge”, Rivera said. Did reaching the pinnacle of the league once and having a second title snatched away in crushing fashion leave the Seahawks drained? The one thing about Cam is you can spy him and run with him but can you tackle him because he’s so big.

Newton completed 20-of-36 passes for 269 yards and one touchdown with two interceptions in the game.
That change against Indy though, thanks to Julian Edelman. That led someone to ask Brady this week if he was mad at Edelman. Consistency has been a major issue with him and it will be imperative that he plays at a high level against a menacing defensive unit.
Brady made it clear he was joking, but I BET HE WASN’T JOKING. Hell even Jameis Winston is averaging more passing yards than Newton. Take that, Peyton Manning.
“If at first you don’t succeed”, the proverb goes, “try, try, again”.
Hopefully, he’s still friends with Edelman.
Brady’s season stats: 139 of 197 for 1,387 yards, 16 TD, 1 INT, 118.4 QB rating; 1 rushing TD. They’re running the ball well.
So what did Rodgers do to pass the time?
“It feels great now”, Newton said. They pace around when they’re bored! In the receiving end, Greg Olsen had 131 yards and one touchdown in seven receptions.
Actually, he probably won’t be traveling with 311. I’m guessing this is what every pumpkin on every porch in Green Bay looks like on Halloween.
Simplicity – “We play man-to-man or Cover-3, not much more than that”. I expect the Panthers to roll here and add yet another notch in the win column.
Dalton was clutch in that commercial, just like he’s been for the Bengals this season.
Just when you are about to write him off, however, Cam goes out and puts together a fourth quarter like he did Sunday evening.
Next up for Dalton: Bye Week. 6 yards in rushing. Carolina has nine 4th quarter comebacks on Newton’s resume. Prior to the most recent TNF game I bet most would have favored Matt Ryan over Newton is forced to pick one or the other.
We’re not here to talk about Seattle though, we’re here to talk about what Newton did to Seattle.
Well, for former Miami Hurricanes’ tight end, Greg Olsen that’s exactly what had happened this past Sunday.
However, that doesn’t change the fact that Newton shredded Seattle’s secondary. He rushed just twice for six yards and threw four interceptions.
Newton led the Panthers to touchdowns on their final two possessions after trailing 23-14.
Hey don’t blame me for this premature question as I’m way too cynical only 5 games in to the season.
Most members of the media also are not making the kind of money Cam Newton is. Carolina went on the road, came back from a 2nd half 13-point deficit and beat the defending NFC champions.
“Yeah, but not commentating”, Newton said. No longer is this a powerhouse that combines defensive torture – the Carroll trademark – with a steady ball-control offense managed by Wilson.
The Panthers offense has been called erratic and scattered. “These situations, they’re not going to break us”.
Next up for Freeman: at Tennessee.
SERIES HISTORY: 9th regular-season meeting.
Said Newton: “I’m focused on trying to sustain what we’ve got going”.
Those numbers are nearly enough to make you want to party, which is ideal because it’s time for our weekly “Gronk invites you to party with him” video.
Weeks on the MVP projection for Gronk: 5/6.
