In his third preseason game, Panthers quarterback Cam Newton has just accounted for his first touchdown.
On his first drive against Cincinnati, Newton capped a 46-yard march by scrambling 16 yards for a touchdown on third-and-11. On the run, Newton got to the 5 without much trouble, then cut back to avoid two Bengals and spun through a third to the end zone.
That gave Carolina a 7-0 lead. The Panthers had gotten the ball when Cincinnati's opening drive fizzled. The Bengals had advanced to the Panther 33, but then got a holding penalty and a fumbled exchange between QB Andy Dalton and RB Cedric Benson. Panthers CB Chris Gamble recovered.
On the ensuing 46-yard march, Newton had a 9-yard completion to Steve Smith, a near-completion to Smith in the back of the end zone and two successful third-down conversions (the first was a run by Jonathan Stewart on third-and-1).

It's probably because he didn't have any tattoos to get in the way.
It seem like we can't stop the run again,one of three problems we had last year.Stoping the run,scoring the points, and rushing the QB.The only thing is fixed better QB is brought who can run and Greg Olsen nothing else.We still need a WR who can take it to the house,good stop runner and a decent CB simple as that. FINITO
Benson already has 5.1 avg percarry
Can he play defense?
If he scores in the regular season, will you call it his second touchdown?
It should be as they did not have just about any body art to go into the best way.
