Panthers coach Ron Rivera wanted a little something more from his offense http://www.thebengalslockerroom.com/authentic-alex-redmond-jersey , which is why he turned to his old boss Norv Turner as the team's new coordinator this season.Rivera, who once coached under Turner in San Diego, said he got exactly what he was hoping for Sunday.Cam Newton threw for two touchdowns and ran for two others , Christian McCaffrey racked up a career-high 184 yards rushing and Carolina handed the Cincinnati Bengals their first loss of the season 31-21 behind a well-balanced offensive attack."We want to impose our will," said Newton, who praised Turner's play calling. "We are a team that can attack a defense in many different ways. As the game progresses I see the body language of defenders and they are wearing down."Newton completed 15 of 24 passes for 150 yards and ran for 36 yards as the Panthers (2-1) won their seventh straight home game going back to last season.McCaffrey, who tied a franchise record with 14 receptions last week against Atlanta, did his damage on the ground this time. He surpassed his previous career high of 66 yards rushing and became the first player in franchise history to post a 100-yard receiving game and a 100-yard rushing game in back-to-back weeks.Newton believes McCaffrey's 28-carry outing will dispel myths he's just a scat back."He's a total running back," Newton said. "... This is not a fluke. He has been doing this his entire career, collegiately and professionally. The fact that we have a special talent, you can't really gear in using packages for him."McCaffrey said the labels "definitely" bother him, but has learned to deal with them."The more and more I go through this league I learn that it's never been about proving anyone wrong or proving anybody right Jordan Willis Jersey White ," McCaffrey said. "It's proving myself right, and that's the biggest thing that I've had to mentally take over as I continue to grow."When the Panthers weren't running McCaffrey, they used him as a decoy.On one Turner play call, Newton sold a fake pass to McCaffrey and came back to the other side of the field to hit backup running back C.J. Anderson for a 24-yard touchdown on a screen play. The Panthers call it their Pony 21 set, which features McCaffrey and Anderson, a 1,000-yard rusher last season with Denver, in the backfield."This is a different style of offense, the way they attack," Bengals coach Marvin Lewis said. "We have to adjust and morph and play in it and make sure we stay sound in it. You have to be good for the whole ballgame. There were times we were perfect and times we were not."GREEN DAYBengals wide receiver A.J. Green, who had three touchdowns last week against the Ravens, left on the third play in the third quarter with a groin injury when he was hit while trying to make a catch over the middle. He did not return.Green said after the game he was starting to feel better and expects to play next week against Atlanta."At first Jake Fisher Jersey , I thought I'd just knocked the air out of myself and just needed to catch my breath," Green said. "When I got up and running, I was pretty sore."YOU GOTTA OBADAEfe Obada, the first player to make a 53-man roster from the recently formed NFL International Pathways Program, turned in a huge game in his first NFL appearance, getting an interception, a key fourth-quarter sack and two quarterback pressures on Dalton. One of his pressures was initially ruled sack-fumble in the second quarter, but later overturned by instant replay to an incomplete pass.DALTON'S DAYAndy Dalton was 29 of 46 with two touchdowns, but was intercepted four times, including twice by rookie cornerback Donte Jackson. Carolina's defense, which allowed 432 yards and 31 points to the Falcons last week, held the Bengals (2-1) to 66 yards rushing without Joe Mixon in the lineup.ON THE FUMBLENewton took a lot of heat for not jumping on a loose football in a Super Bowl 50 loss to the Denver Broncos Womens Andrew Billings Jersey , so he wasn't going to risk losing another in the fourth quarter with the Panthers clinging to a 28-21 lead. After a strip sack, Newton beat three Bengals players to the ball to maintain possession."Come hell or high water I was going to get that fumble, how about that?" Newton said. "I'm just trying to create good habits."BOYD STEPS UPTyler Boyd had a big game for the Bengals with six catches for 132 yards and a touchdown. Gio Bernard had 61 yards rushing on 12 carries and a touchdown, and five catches for 25 yards filling in for the injured Mixon.INJURIES:Bengals: Nose tackle Ryan Glasgow was carted off the field in the fourth quarter with a lower right leg injury and did not return.Panthers: Panthers middle linebacker Luke Kuechly left in the fourth quarter with dehydration but received an IV in the locker room and returned to make an interception on a "Hail Mary" on the game's final play.UP NEXT:Bengals: Visit the Falcons next Sunday.Panthers: Have a bye next week, then host the Giants on Oct. 7.NFL Week 2: Fantasy football sits and starts The Bengals kicked off Week 2 by defeating the Ravens on Thursday Night Football. Like most NFL fans though, you probably have another team you also hold in high regard, your fantasy team. It would be a disservice to ignore that team, so here are the players you should sit and start in Week 2 for fantasy football.Must startsPhilip Rivers (Chargers QB): This one is pretty much entirely matchup based. Did you see what Joe Flacco and the Ravens did to the Bills in Week 1? Flacco walked away with three touchdowns, and there’s almost no way that Rivers will get less than that.Keenan Allen (Chargers WR): See above. While Flacco does a great job of spreading the ball around, Rivers is more likely to give Allen a large portion of targets no matter what. Allen could be in for a game-changing performance for your fantasy team, especially in PPR leagues.Duke Johnson Jr. (Browns RB): I could’ve cheated and put Melvin Gordon here, but no one should be benching him in any case. This however is my hot take of the week. Johnson should be a great play in PPR leagues. The Saints were very soft last week against the Buccaneers. Also Cleveland just released Josh Gordon Womens John Miller Jersey , so Johnson could be used more in the passing game to help. Johnson didn’t get much run in Week 1, but the weather conditions didn’t suit his style. We should see more of him in Week 2 against the Saints.Favorable match upsJames Conner (Steelers RB): For those lucky enough to end up with Conner, there is no reason to take him out of your lineups until Le’Veon Bell returns. Conner gets another great matchup against the Chiefs who allowed the Chargers to gain a total of 103 yards rushing in Week 1. More importantly, they also gave up 14 catches for 189 yards to those same running backs. I don’t expect Conner to reach those numbers, but it is clear he has a path to another great game for owners.Patrick Mahomes (Chiefs QB): The combination of Tyreek Hill and Mahomes looks like it could be deadly. With a guy who can throw 70 yards and another who is one of the fastest men on earth, the opposition should be scared. If you have Mahomes on your team it’s probably time to start him. Clearly Andy Reid knew what he was doing when he traded away Alex Smith and made Mahomes the starter.Will Fuller (Texans WR): Fuller didn’t get to play last week, and he is still questionable this week, but Bill O’Brien is “confident” Fuller will be able to play on Sunday against the banged-up Titans. It was clear Deshaun Watson missed his deep threat in Week 1. The entire offense just got bogged down by New England. Fuller could be a quick remedy to that.Just sit themAmari Cooper (Raiders WR): The Raiders say they want to get Cooper more involved, but he only has three catches for 18 yards in his past two games against Denver. Last week he also only had one catch for nine yards. Cooper’s season will undoubtedly turn around, but it won’t be in Week 2.T.J. Yeldon (Jaguars RB): It isn’t looking like Leonard Fournette will be able to play against the Patriots. You shouldn’t be so quick to throw Yeldon in your lineups though. New England is known for taking away what a team does best and making them try to beat them another way. For the Jaguars, their greatest asset is their running game, even without Fournette. For owners expecting a Fournette-like performance from Yeldon Trey Hopkins Jersey , you will easily be disappointed.Aaron Rodgers (Packers QB): Some of you will scoff at this, but Rodgers is banged up and going against a quarterback’s worst nightmare in the Vikings pass defense. Rodgers usually has great luck against the Vikings at Lambeau Field, but a banged up Rodgers may struggle a bit more with the defensive juggernaut. Streaming defensesChargers: Whichever team is playing the Bills will always be at the top of this list. They are the new Browns in that regard.49ers: Lions quarterbacks combined for five interceptions last week against the Jets. It is hard to imagine them being that bad again, but it is clear there are some very real growing pains going on in Detroit right now under new head coach Matt Patricia. The 49ers also should be pretty readily available to pick up on the waiver wire.Bears: If by some off chance Chicago is still available, you should pick them up. They may have lost their Week 1 game, but who cares about that? The had four sacks and a Khalil Mack defensive touchdown. Sacks are a constant source of fantasy points. Chicago is a defense you could play every week.
