SIT
CAM NEWTON, QUARTERBACK, CAROLINA PANTHERS
Two weeks ago, the Panthers played the New Orleans Saints, and Cam Newton didn’t have that great of a game in a 31-13 loss. This week, Carolina faces off against the Saints again. New Orleans has the third best pass defense in the league, allowing just 196.4 yards a game through the air. Two weeks ago, Newton threw for just 160 yards against this defense. This just isn’t a good match up for Newton. It is certainly too risky to endanger your championship hopes.
You have probably gotten pretty good mileage out of Newton this season but you need to seriously consider going with your other quarterback this week.
