Playing as a Coach
Cam Newton has reenergized the Carolina Panthers organization.
The team hit it big when they drafted him last season and now look
to take the next step. The Panthers are built to run the ball and hit
big pass plays to Steve Smith. Carolina now has a 4 headed monster
on the ground with DeAngelo Williams, Jonathan Stewart, Mike
Tolbert, and of course Cam himself. Pound your opponent into sub-
mission and keep your defense fresh.
Speaking of defense, the Panthers hope they are headed in the right
direction with the drafting of Luke Kuechly at ROLB. That combined
with the return of Jon Beason should make this defense a lot more
formidable in 2012. There are still holes in the secondary, so be sure
to mix up your coverages often.
