Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton has been setting records since his rookie season and this past Sunday he claimed another. Trailing by 17 points entering the fourth quarter, Newton led Carolina to a 21-17 victory over the defending Super Bowl champions on three consecutive possessions.
Not only did it tie the biggest deficit for a win in franchise history, but it was the largest ever fourth-quarter comeback for Carolina. The victory also gave Newton 15 such wins during his career which ties Hall of Fame quarterbacks Troy Aikman, Terry Bradshaw, Len Dawson, Bob Griese and surpasses current Green Bay Packers signal caller Aaron Rodgers.
