Norv Turner will not prevent QB Cam Newton from running

One of the most obvious stories of Week 1: Norv Turner will not force Cam Newton to be anything that he is not.

By posing as the Carolina Panthers' new offensive coordinator, Newton relayed what Turner had told him before the 16-8 win over the Dallas Cowboys.

"Hey baby, I-I-let you be you now, baby," Newton snapped, via the Charlotte Observer.

"I said" OK, Coach. "

"All right now, let him out there, baby."

Newton is a double threat monster that some coaches have tried to create in passing.

Sunday's result stressed that Turner will not take Newton's legs.

Quarterback led the Panthers in both the rush attempts (13) and in the yards (58). Newton proved once again that his goal-line play area is the most unstoppable game in the NFL because he easily bypassed the end zone for a TD.

The caller of the Panthers signals was a smuggler, as was the case in his career mode. Newton completed 17 of 26 passes for 161 yards, no TD and no INT, while taking three sacks behind a failed offensive line.

In his eighth season in the NFL, Newton's tendency to launch attacks and inaccuracies do not change anytime soon. The worst thing a coach can do is put the QB in a role. Fortunately Turner knows better.

The Panthers unleashed Newton from the start, including a 29-meter driver behind the wheel.

"It helps us a lot," said center Ryan Kalil about Newton's capabilities. "It's a special player, and that's one you have to take into account.This adds an extra element to our attack.It can make guys miss it, it can extend a play." "

Although there is concern that Newton will receive additional hits, the other quarterbacks are not designed as the 6-foot-5, 245-pound QB linebacker. Newton has repeatedly said that he takes more shots in the pocket than in a runner. Most of the time, he distributes punishments on the move.

The Panthers' attack is not yet a well-oiled machine, but the first week proved it had the means to improve, although tight end Greg Olsen misses time with another injury.

"It's still early, [but] I felt extremely comfortable with what [Turner] "I understood the game plan well and I know it's what he calls, just the preparation process during this week. … We felt good and we just want to keep getting better. "
