re: Carolina is the "new Seattle"

Newton is still getting by with his phenomenal athleticism. His passing remains poor. Some flash throws, again athleticism, but not accurate. A large part of his total success is the running threat. Again, he is legitimately special there. I would never choose to be dependent on the dual threat of a QB for success... not in the NFL. He has been dinged and will some more. It is just a matter of how bad and how long.

Their D is potentially the special dominant type. I get mixed feelings watching Gramps Harper back there making plays.
