Panthers go to 10-0 with win over Redskins

Since the start of the Super Bowl, six of the 15 teams to start 10-0 won the Super Bowl. He had four with 5:14 to play in the second quarter and five overall, tying the franchise record held by Steve Beuerlein. Carolina took advantage of the turnover with a 13-yard touchdown pass from Newton to running back Jonathan Stewart, giving the Panthers a 7-0 lead.

The Panthers’ kickoff coverage unit allowed a 99-yard touchdown return to Andre Roberts, their first kickoff-return touchdown allowed since 2009.

Buccaneers 45, Eagles 17 – Jameis Winston and Doug Martin were an unstoppable combination.

On Thursday, Hardy will play the team he spent his first five years in the National Football League with. Sanders had 237 for the Lions against Tampa in 1994.

T.J. Yates, taking over for the injured Brian Hoyer, threw for 229 yards and two TDs, but more importantly didn’t turn the ball over to a NY team that has hit its lowest point this season. That’s what won the game.

Still, the Redskins (4-6) are only one game behind the NY Giants in the NFC East.

This might be rock bottom for head coach Chip Kelly.

Tony Romo’s return helped the Cowboys snap a seven-game losing streak with a 24-14 win over the Dolphins. The Redskins played poorly Sunday and that’s what lost them the game.

Meanwhile, Colts quarterback Matt Hasselbeck completed 23 of 32 passes for 213 yards and two touchdowns.

Moving forward: Newton had never thrown for more than three scores in a game in his career until Sunday when he eclipsed that in just one half. Miami had the ball for only 21 minutes.

The Panthers blew it open with a 17-point second quarter after ending the first 15 minutes in a 14-14 draw.

On Washington’s second drive, however, Cousins wouldn’t miss Jackson again. Five different players recorded sacks, or were a part of them.

LT Trent Williams left the game with what appeared to be a leg or knee injury.

Jones’ fumble problems are becoming an issue for the Redskins.

It was a happy birthday for Broncos quarterback Brock Osweiler, who made his first start of the season against the Bears. That was followed by two catches for 41 yards against Tennessee.

In a postgame interview (with video courtesy of Carol Maloney on Twitter), Hatcher opined that the reason why the Redskins weren’t getting favorable calls was because the referees didn’t like Washington’s nickname.

Without Marshawn Lynch in a game the Seahawks couldn’t afford to lose, an undrafted rookie running back stole the show.

Then came four catches for 71 yards and a touchdown against Green Bay.

Ravens running back Justin Forsett suffered a broken right arm in the first quarter of the 16-13 win over the Rams.

Between the color schemes and the Panthers screams, Sunday’s game could have been mistaken for a Carolina home game at times. Greg Olsen has been their one true and steady option for Newton this season and now leads the team in receiving. Touchdown No. 4 went to Olsen on a red-zone post route, and the fifth was a pretty fade to Funchess. Through 10 games, Hopkins has 76 catches, 1,045 yards and nine touchdowns. Atlanta’s 5-0 start now feels like a distant memory. This one was on the offense, which totally bogged down in the second half. “Made the tackle and made the interception, but the game is in the hands of the refs”. The Jets have lost four of five.

After the interception was called back, Newton and the Panthers’ offense finished an eight-play, 92-yard drive to take a 21-14 lead of their own.

The Chargers (2-8) lost their sixth straight.

The clinic Sunday ended with Derek Anderson playing quarterback and the starters watching, and laughing, from the sidelines.

Smith, who led Helix High to consecutive city championships at Qualcomm Stadium, was 20 of 25 for 253 yards. His quarterback rating was a season-high 123.3. The Panthers recovered the ball.
