Grading the Carolina Panthers for Sunday’s game against Cincinnati:
A+ Quarterback: Cam Newton followed up a stellar Week 2 performance with an even better one on Sunday against Cincinnati. He was 15 of 24 for 150 yards and two touchdowns, and he ran in two scores himself. He made great decisions and most of the incompletions were drops.
A+ Running backs: Christian McCaffrey rushed for 184 yards on 28 carries. That is not a typo. C.J. Anderson only got three touches, but one was a 24-yard touchdown catch-and-run on a slick misdirection play.
