Panthers bottle up Eagles to stake claim as elite team

CHARLOTTE - The biggest achievement by the Carolina Panthers on Sunday night was that they authored a flawed performance and still managed to improve to 6-0 for the first time in franchise history.
How the Panthers outlasted the Philadelphia Eagles 27-16 won’t silence doubters, but it should establish them as one of the few truly elite teams in the NFL.
Quarterback Cam Newton threw three interceptions, an individual performance he called “lackluster.” The team uncharacteristically lost the turnover battle. And an opponent uncharacteristically had success in the running game against the Panthers.
“We didn’t play our best brand of football,” Newton said.
