PHILADELPHIA – Cam Newton threw for two touchdowns and also ran for a pair as the Carolina Panthers beat the Philadelphia Eagles 30-22 on Monday Night Football.
Newton was 18 of 28 for 306 yards in the air and also rushed for 52 yards on 14 carries.
Rookie running back Bryce Brown had a big game for the Eagles in defeat, picking up 178 yards on 19 carries and scoring two touchdowns. But Brown’s two lost fumbles also proved costly.
Kevin Harlan and Boomer Esiason called the action on Westwood One Sports.
