Cam Newton Says 'All Fingers Can Point Back to Me' After Panthers' Loss to Bucs

Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton is willing to take responsibility for his team's 20-14 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Thursday night.

"A lack of execution offensively," Newton said of what contributed to the loss, per ESPN's David Newton. "All fingers can point back to me specifically."

Newton's numbers on the night look respectable on the surface, as he completed 25 of 51 for 333 yards and did not throw an interception. However, the three-time Pro Bowler did not lead the Panthers into the end zone at any point over the course of the 60 minutes.
