Quarterback Cam Newton dropped back and looked left to draw the defenders' attention, but all along he was hoping to connect with tight end Greg Olsen down the right seam. When Newton turned right, he saw Olsen running wide open toward the end zone.
Newton calmly threw a 26-yard touchdown strike to Olsen, giving Carolina a 27-23 comeback victory to silence the crowd at CenturyLink Field.
