I thought this was the most ever?
QB CAM NEWTON has 9 rush TDs, most in season by rookie QB since 1970.
STICK THE KNIFE IN AND TURN IT!!!!!
I was reading Pro Football Talk at an NBC site and found some interesting tidbits.
Newton also has a chance to lead the league in rushing touchdowns this season; only Adrian Peterson with 11 and LeSean McCoy with 10 are ahead of him right now.
He is 2 rushing touchdowns from leading the entire league.
Former Patriot Steve Grogan has the single-season record for rushing touchdowns by a quarterback, with 12 in 1976. Just last year, NFL.com listed Grogan’s record as one of the five NFL records least likely to be broken
I think I heard 1 of you mention that last night on the radio show but I’m not positive now. Anyway here it is for those that didn’t listen to the show.
Here is the link to the entire article, it is about Newton breaking the ruukoe rushing td record.
STICK THE KNIFE IN AND TURN IT!!!!!
I was supposed to use the sarcasm font.
Was kind of a backhand shot at the people that complain about typos or spelling.
STICK THE KNIFE IN AND TURN IT!!!!!

Newton’s presser was good today. When questioned how he feels with all the losses; “training me to get use to losing is like training a Lion to be a house pet, it’s just something i will never get use to.”
Anyway. If we dont beat the Colts I just dont know what kind of emotions I will be feeling. I mean just imagine the Colts getting their 1st win of the season against us, wow. You just cant be bad enough to lose to the Colts right now if you are in the NfL
If they beat us, we will only be 1 win ahead of them.
Or 1 win behind of them in the draft sweepstakes
STICK THE KNIFE IN AND TURN IT!!!!!
I kinda like this article. Is this something you are thinking about doing for every game Jaxon?

My score prediction.. 34-16 Panthers. By the end of the 3rd quarter we will be up by so much that we might just see some Derek Anderson and Armanti Edwards in action on offense in the 4th quarter in order to preserve Cam and Smitty’s energy for the playoffs…

Why would you say these things?
I think we should win, but it’s difficult to see a blow-out.

We SHOULD win this game but them coming off a bye scares me a little…although if they come off the bye like most teams have this year we should be good. No Addai possibly no excuses. We should win this game by 14+

Yea but this is Curtis “I wouldnt even hire him as a” Painter. If we lose to Curtis Painter I just will have no words.
I mean the Jags shut then out at Lucas Oil by 14 pts.

If we lose this game, we will face more than another L in that loss column. We will lose our honor.
We must win this game. Not only for ourselves…but for our honor. We must not lose. Get mad. Get angry! Show that you care for the game!

Brandon Thompson is the new Jacoby Ford. You better pick him Panthers or you will be doomed to relive the 2010 season over and over again in the Twilight Zone.
The most important question is....
….who is their starting running back so I can add him to my Fantasy team?
+100
i might even pick up the back up lol

this game
i cant believe im saying this but if we lose this game, why not just tank the rest of the season. we probably wouldnt win any anyway. maybe split with tampa, but if indy could manage to win one more and we get 1st. pick we would hit the motherload. ive heard as many as 3 #i1 to move up to get luck. iam never in favor of tanking, but it would be a great end result.
