Newton passed for 226 yards and three touchdowns on 21-of-33 efficiency and rushed for 83 yards and another score on 12 carries for the Panthers (4-8-1), who suddenly find themselves back in the race for the NFC South crown. We did a great job of making them boo by halftime, which is always a great thing when youre the visiting team, Panthers safety and ex-Saint Roman Harper said. To go on the road in a tough environment and win the way we did, as a fan I would be kind of frustrated, too. Jonathan Stewart racked up a game-best 155 yards on the ground with a TD on 20 attempts, while Greg Olsen was Newtons top target with 10 receptions for 72 yards and a touchdown. Drew Brees was contained for most of the contest, but threw for 235 yards and a score to Benjamin Watson for the Saints (5-8), who hadnt lost four in a row at home since 1999 -- Mike Ditkas final season as head coach.

That score was set up by Ingrams fumble and Colin Coles recovery at the Saints 25. One play after the ensuing kickoff, Brees was picked off by Bene Benwikere at his own 40. It took the Panthers six plays to reach the end zone, as Newton took it in himself from the two on 3rd-and-1. Shayne Grahams 37-yard make put the Saints on the board early in the second quarter, but the hosts werent able to respond after Newton hit Olsen for a 16-yard touchdown and 24-3 game with 2:14 left in the first half. Id use the word frustrated, Id use the word embarrassed, to go out there as a professional football team and play that way at home, Watson said. The outplayed us, outhustled us, out-executed us. Even if we lose, it shouldnt be this lopsided with the talent we have. Carolinas defense forced a three-and-out to begin the second half, then Stewarts 69-yard scamper on the Panthers first snap of the third boosted Carolinas edge to 31-3. Fozzy Whittaker later caught a Newton pass along the right sideline and dove for the pylon for a 26-yard strike. Ganos 41-yarder early in the fourth provided a 41-3 margin, and Brees was only able to strike back with 5:29 to play as he found Watson for a 7-yard score.
