Since the Carolina Panthers selected running back Christian McCaffrey with the eighth overall pick in this year’s draft, there has been excitement around the organization regarding what he can bring to the team. The Panthers got their first view of that in the season opener, as McCaffrey rushed for 43 yards on 13 carries along […]

Stephen Curry can nonchalantly drill a three-pointer from quite a range, but will he be as accurate in his prediction of the Carolina Panthers’ record he made way, way early in the NFL season? Scott Fowler of The Charlotte Observer sat down with the Golden State Warriors spitfire guard just before the Panthers take on […]

Over the course of the NFL preseason, there have been some concerns from the Carolina Panthers about Cam Newton’s health and whether he’d be ready for Week 1 against the San Francisco 49ers. Newton is recovering from offseason surgery on a torn rotator cuff. Although he is listed as questionable to play against the 49ers, […]

The Carolina Panthers are looking to bounce back after a disappointing season last year. One way the team might be able to get back on track offensively is the presence of rookie Christian McCaffrey in the backfield. McCaffrey made a name for himself while showcasing his skills at Stanford as one of the most electrifying […]

Beyond the football field, it has been quite a difficult summer for Panthers wide receiver Kelvin Benjamin that saw him experience the loss of his mother. He had forged an extremely close bond with his mother over the years that has made this loss extremely difficult for him to go through over the last few […]

For much of the offseason, there has been plenty discussed regarding Colin Kaepernick’s situation, as he remains on the open market with little interest in him across the league. Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton is the latest to weigh in on the matter, stating that he believes Kaepernick is better than a few of the […]

The primary concern for the Carolina Panthers throughout the NFL preseason has been the health of star quarterback Cam Newton. With Newton recovering from offseason shoulder surgery, the Panthers brass wasn’t sure how quickly he could get back on the field or whether he would be 100 percent once cleared. Head coach Ron Rivera just […]

The Carolina Panthers have a fairly major concern as the start of the 2017 NFL season draws near. Superstar quarterback Cam Newton is coming off offseason surgery to repair a torn rotator cuff and has only taken one snap in the preseason thus far. At this point, the Panthers brass doesn’t know how healthy or ready […]

There is a good chance that Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton will see preseason action this Thursday against the Jacksonville Jaguars, according to head coach Ron Rivera via ESPN’s David Newton. It depends, in part, on how Newton feels about his body on that day. “The big key for us is how he feels in the […]

The Carolina Panthers are hoping for a bounce-back season after the team failed to live up to expectations during the 2016 NFL campaign. Cam Newton will play a major role in the team’s attempt to get back on track but he continues to remain sidelined during the preseason. According to Jourdan Rodrigue of the Charlotte […]

One-time NFL MVP quarterback Cam Newton of the Carolina Panthers has been steadily recovering from offseason shoulder surgery that has kept sidelined throughout the offseason. Although he has been steadily progressing through his rehab from the surgery, the Panthers are prepared to let him miss the remainder of the NFL preseason if needed be, according […]

Dear Steve, I first want to start off and say thank you for bringing your love and passion to the game of football and letting that transcend to many fans, including myself. It all started back in 2001 when you got drafted by the Carolina Panthers. Not much was known about you other than a […]

Cam Newton made headlines earlier this season when he publicly complained that he’s not officiated like the other elite quarterbacks in the NFL. He cited a number of big blows to his head in the pocket that weren’t penalized, claiming that guys like Drew Brees and Tom Brady would’ve drawn flags. He eventually spoke with […]

After an incredible 15-1 campaign in 2015, the Carolina Panthers have endured their most disappointing season in the Cam Newton era. After last night’s defeat, the Panthers sport a 4-8 record and are unlikely to get back to the postseason. Injuries, close losses, and a decline in performance defensively have stung this team throughout 2016, […]

Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton was spotted by TNT cameras in the third quarter of the Golden State Warriors–Houston Rockets game on Thursday night at Oracle Arena. The 2015 NFL MVP is a close friend and supporter of Warriors point guard Stephen Curry, but it was a surprise when he came decked out in Golden State […]

The Carolina Panthers are technically still in the NFC playoff race, but if Luke Kuechly is out for a significant amount of time, their chances steeply decline. Last Thursday, the star linebacker endured a brutal concussion that caused him to become quite emotional. He was immediately placed in the NFL’s concussion protocol while being carted […]

There’s no doubting that the 2016 campaign has been disappointing for the Carolina Panthers. On the heels of a 15-1 season in 2015, Cam Newton & company currently sit at 3-6 as we head into the stretch run of the schedule. A path to the playoffs still exists, but Carolina probably can’t afford to lose […]

Despite Cam Newton‘s complaints about the officiating and his safety on the field, the Los Angeles Rams won’t change their game. It’s not like they need any extra motivation, given that Newton is the NFL’s reigning MVP. The Rams are a physical defense, and they’ll continue to be physical this Sunday. From the LA Times’ […]

Marcus Gilbert wants Cam Newton to pipe down with his complaints about the NFL’s officiating. After taking another cheap hit that was not flagged on Sunday, Newton told reporters that he plans on talking to Roger Goodell. In Newton’s opinion, he’s been on the receiving end of a number of hits that haven’t been penalized, […]

This week’s bye came at a much-needed time for the Carolina Panthers. After going 15-1 in 2015, the Panthers are off to an abysmal, and overall surprising, 1-5 start. They’ve lost three games by three or less points, but given how many close games they won last year, their record in close games was likely […]

Cam Newton fully participated in Thursday’s practice, signaling that he could return from his concussion this Sunday against the Saints. Cam’s return would be a huge lift for a Panthers team off to a disappointing 1-4 start, on the heels of a 15-1 campaign. Early this season, Cam has taken a number of huge hits, […]

The likelihood of the Carolina Panthers going 15-1 again was quite low, but essentially nobody expected them to be 1-4 after Week 5. While he didn’t expect it, one person who at least predicted it as a possibility was tight end Greg Olsen. Olsen is known as one of the better receiving threats at the […]

Monday night is a vital game for the Carolina Panthers to win. After a slow 1-3 start, the Panthers can’t afford to fall to another division rival in the Buccaneers and see their record drop to 1-4, just a year after they went 15-1. However, it appears they’ll have to do so without the NFL’s […]

In the NFL today, few position groups are more essential to a team’s success than the secondary. Even though the ground game still has a prominent role, there’s no doubting that it’s predominately an aerial league now. Edge rushers are more valuable than ever as a result, as well as cornerbacks and safeties. Stopping the […]

It’s been a rough couple of days for Panthers starting quarterback and 2015 MVP Cam Newton. In the process of Carolina falling to 1-3, Newton suffered a concussion after a brutal hit on Sunday. Now, he’s tasked, or at least his lawyers are, to deal with a lawsuit. Newton allegedly trashed a Beverly Hills mansion […]

There might not be a more humble player in the NFL today than Julio Jones. After thrashing the Carolina Panthers‘ secondary for 300 receiving yards and a touchdown on 12 receptions, Jones downplayed his incredible performance. From Peter King of Sports Illustrated’s MMQB: I spoke to Jones on the phone after the game. “You’re the […]

Talk about a mess. Over the last couple months, Carolina Panthers fullback Mike Tolbert has been in a dispute with a local autoshop in Charlotte, called Motion Lab Tuning. Both sides have given starkly different accounts of how their business has transpired. After waiting two and a half months for the work on his car […]

Another game, another blown lead for the Carolina Panthers. This is the second blown lead in three games so far in the early 2016 season. The first time happened in Denver, with Carolina leading the Broncos 17-7 at the half before eventually blowing the lead to a rookie QB. They ended up losing 21-20 thanks […]

Some news broke earlier today that the NFL is at least considering moving Sunday’s game between the Carolina Panthers and Minnesota Vikings. The game is set to kick off at 1 pm, but the NFL is worried that with all of the protests and riots the past few days in Charlotte, game safety may be […]

Since Tuesday, Charlotte has become a very different city. Ever since a police officer shot and killed a man, protests and riots have broken out all over Charlotte. This is not a regular scene for a usually quiet Charlotte community. On Wednesday, the media tried to ask Panthers players and coaches of what they think […]

Jonathan Stewart was only able to rush 5 times in the Panthers’ game against the 49ers on Sunday as he suffered a hamstring injury early on in the game. The Panthers were still able to come out with a victory against San Francisco, but they obviously were missing their starting back. Hamstring injuries are always […]

No thanks to a historic finals meltdown, this offseason became quite brutal for Stephen Curry. The Golden State Warriors franchise player has taken shots, especially in social media, left and right, but still manages to remain cool about everything. Curry sent a tweet in response to the Carolina Panthers’ opener loss, and, as expected, everyone […]
