Cam Newton says he’s extremely comfortable playing in new coordinator Norv Turner’s scheme and is thrilled with the talent the Panthers have surrounded him with on offense.But the eighth-year quarterback isn’t going out on a limb and making predictions on what Carolina might achieve this season.“We don’t know what we have yet and that is why Sunday is so important for everybody �? because we finally find out http://www.ravensfootballauthentics.com/justice-hill-jersey-authentic ,” Newton said in preparation for the team’s home opener against the Dallas Cowboys.The Panthers added speed at wide receiver �? trading for Torrey Smith, signing free agent Jarius Wright and drafting D.J. Moore from Maryland in the first round. Wide receiver Devin Funchess returns as the No. 1 receiver and three-time Pro Bowl tight end Greg Olsen is healthy again after missing nine games in 2017 with a foot injury. Second-year running back Christian McCaffrey figures to be a vital part of the offense in the run and pass game, and the Panthers added 1,000-yard rusher C.J. Anderson behind him.That’s a lot of different options for Newton �? which coach Ron Rivera said is by design.Rivera wants Newton to get back to what he was doing in 2015 when he spread the ball, completing at least 10 passes to nine different receivers. The formula worked well as Newton threw for a career-high 35 touchdowns and won league MVP honors while leading the Panthers to 15 straight wins and a Super Bowl appearance.“I think that plays very to the type of football team that we want to be,” Rivera said. “(Defenses) can’t key in on one or two guys and they have to play the whole field and that can work to our advantage if we have guys that can make plays.”Rivera fired offensive coordinator Mike Shula this past offseason after Newton regressed �? at least statistically �? the past two seasons.Turner, who Rivera once worked under in San Diego Ben Powers Jersey , was hired to bring a little more creativity to the offense �? and help improve Newton’s poor career 58.5 completion percentage. Newton, who played under Turner understudy Rob Chudzinski earlier in his career, said the adjustment to the offense has been smooth.21View Gallery Gallery:Dallas Cowboys: Celebrities who root for the Cowboys from LeBron James to Stone Cold Steve AustinUSA TODAY SportsNow he’s ready to test the waters.“I’m excited to play a full four quarters of football,” Newton said. “… Hopefully we can be hitting on all cylinders as far as efficiency and executing.”Coach Jason Garrett said stopping Newton on Sunday will be key.“He’s big, he’s strong, he’s athletic, he has a great feel for making plays both as a runner and as a passer http://www.ravensfootballauthentics.com/iman-marshall-jersey-authentic ,” Garrett said. “He can play well within their system. He can play well when the play breaks down. He’s just a dynamic guy. He’s hard to tackle, he’s hard to tackle in the pocket, he’s hard to tackle when he’s out on the run, he’s got a big, strong arm and can throw the ball anywhere on the field.”Newton enters this season not having to worry about his shoulder being an issue. Rotator cuff surgery last year forced Newton to miss most of OTAs and minicamp and a portion of training camp. He only threw two passes in the 2017 preseason.Newton said he’s in the great shape entering the season.“A person once told me there are two type of football players in the NFL — there are football players and professional football players,” Newton said. “Football players are those guys that just wake up and think things that happen and professional football players are guys that make things happen.”Newton said he certain goals is mind, but wasn’t ready to share them.The former Heisman Trophy winner said he plans to match all charitable donations to the Cam Newton Foundation and Boys and Girls Clubs of America for every touchdown he scores this season.“I’m putting my money where my mouth is Trace McSorley Jersey ,” Newton said, added he plans to score “a lot.”Just how much, we’ll begin to find out on Sunday.6View Gallery Gallery:Dallas Cowboys name 2018 Team CaptainsShanna Lockwood-USA TODAY Sports | Shanna Lockwood If the Ravens win this Sunday, they are in the playoffs.If that sounds familiar, it is because that was the same position they were in through 16 weeks of the 2017 season. With a minute to play in Week 17, it looked like they would be getting the job done but they couldn’t see it all the way home.Tyler Boyd‘s 49-yard touchdown catch with 44 seconds left gave the Bengals a win that sent Buffalo to the playoffs and left the Ravens with a lesson that cornerback Brandon Carr summed up as “finish.”“Definitely, last year doesn’t sit well with us Kyler Murray Jersey ,” Carr said, via ESPN.com. “We had a prime opportunity to extend our season, and we failed at it. We didn’t finish the job, so that’s why this year, the art of finish is big for us. Just finding ways to win this game by any means necessary, emptying your tank, giving it your all http://www.cardinalsauthorizedshops.com/authentic-byron-murphy-jersey , and then we’ll reload for next week once we get there.”Thanks to Lamar Jackson, Gus Edwards and other new faces, this Ravens team has a different look than the one that fell short in 2017. They hope Sunday has a different look as well.
