Cam Newton will have to keep his nose clean for the rest of today’s game against the Falcons after earning a first-quarter taunting penalty. NFL rules call for a player to be ejected after his second unsportsmanlike conduct penalty, and there’s still 55 minutes of football to get through. ...

Look At How Excited Thomas Davis Is
The Carolina Panthers played with their food (the San Francisco 49ers) for a long time before they finally finished them off this weekend.

Trevor Siemian Was Fine And The Broncos Should Be Thrilled<em></em>

Cam Newton's Night Was Hard To Watch
Now we know that someone in the NFL or with the Panthers saw the multiple brain-rattling blows to Cam Newton’s head and thought hey, maybe he’s concussed, we should check on him.

A few plays after setting a key block to spring C.J. Anderson for a long run, Broncos rookie Andy Janovich took the very first carry of his career 28 yards into the end zone.
