Week 7: Carolina Panthers 21, Philadelphia Eagles 17

For the second consecutive week Carolina dug themselves an early hole, trailing the defending Super Bowl champions by 17 entering the fourth-quarter. When they needed it most the passing attack began to click and Newton orchestrated one of the biggest comebacks in franchise history.
