As head coach Ron Rivera said after his team needed a 63-yard field goal to beat the Giants a couple of weeks back, winning covers up a lot. And the joy of the Panthers' largest ever fourth-quarter comeback shouldn't mask how they got themselves in yet another sticky situation.

"17-0 nothing is not a great scoreboard to look at two weeks in a row," Olsen said. "We've gotta figure that part out."

The first two quarters were … something.

At the break, the Eagles led 10-0, but it seemed like much more since they had out-gained the Panthers, 222-83.

"We were obviously sleepwalking through the first half," Turner said. "It seemed like on every play we had one guy break down. We were facing long yardage every time. We talked about it at halftime and we said, 'Hey, we're going to get the ball in our hands, we're going to go quick,' and we had success with it."

Yeah, there's something about Newton and the no-huddle.

"I feel like just our edge at some particular times is being in a hurry up," he said.

Olsen agreed: "We kind of had it going there offensively. That no-huddle, tempo, we kind of had them on their heels … I think we're really good when we don't huddle."

As did center Ryan Kalil: "There's just a sense of urgency and our ability to out-tempo and out-condition them at the end of the game. I think we're a well-conditioned football team. I think we do well in those no-huddle situations keeping defenses back on their heels a little bit."

Which makes you wonder why the Panthers don't do it more often.

Turner has traditionally preferred to save the no-huddle for use against big bodies or worn-down defenses on warm days. Now that he's seen what it can do for Newton, maybe we'll see more. But don't expect anything too crazy.
