Scouting report

CAR QB Cam Newton - Week 13, 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 vs. New Orleans

Cam Newton had only 183 yards passing last week in a convincing victory over the Dallas Cowboys, but he added 45 yards and a touchdown on the ground and ended up with a decent fantasy outing against a tough defense. Cam is playing the best ball of his career and is a huge reason why the Panthers remain undefeated as we enter Week 13 of the regular season.

This week, Cam gets a fantastic matchup against the division rival New Orleans Saints. The Saints have given up the second most passing yards to opposing offenses in the league this year, and they rank dead last in passing touchdowns allowed with 30. Cam should be started in all leagues across the board as he attempts to continue his hot streak against a struggling Saints defense.

CAR QB Cam Newton - Week 12, 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 12 at Dallas

Cam Newton was fantastic last week against Washington. He threw for 246 yards and five touchdown passes as the Panthers dominated the game and advanced to a 10-0 record on the season. Cam is having his best season as a pro and is even starting to look more comfortable with his subpar receiving corps.

This week, Cam will have a harder time against a pretty good Dallas defense, but he should still be a solid fantasy option in all leagues. While Dallas is top-10 in the league in passing yards allowed this season, they are allowing a very pedestrian 22.8 points per game to opposing teams. Because Cam finds the end zone so frequently running the ball, his fantasy potential isn’t always limited to what the pass defense allows. Fantasy owners should keep using Cam this week, as he should be in for a nice Thanksgiving game.

CAR QB Cam Newton - Week 11, 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 vs. Washington

Cam Newton had only 217 yards passing last week in a victory over the Titans, but he threw for a touchdown and he added 23 yards and a touchdown rushing to his totals, turning in a decent overall fantasy day. Newton is playing the best ball of his career and has the Panthers undefeated through nine games this season, despite a lack of consistent receivers and a lack of a solid offensive line.

This week, Cam has a great matchup against Washington. Washington has been middle of the road against the pass this year, but have been horrendous against the run. Expect Cam to find ways to score fantasy points through the air and on the ground again this week and to be one of the best fantasy options. We have him as a top-5 starter this week and he should be active in all leagues.

CAR QB Cam Newton - Week 10, 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 at Tennessee

Cam Newton had a great game last week against the Packers to keep the Panthers undefeated. He finished with 297 yards passing and three touchdown passes, along with 57 yards and a touchdown on the ground. Newton is playing some of the best football of his career and he has the NFC-leading Panthers gearing up toward the postseason.

This week, Newton will face a Titans defense that gave up a ton of points to the Saints last week and are in kind of a transitional period with an interim head coach in place. Cam should have another good game and his production on the ground has made him one of the most reliable QB’s in fantasy this year. He should be active in all leagues.

CAR QB Cam Newton - Week 9, 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 vs. Green Bay

Cam Newton had 248 yards, a pair of touchdowns and a pick in an overtime victory over the Colts on Monday night. He also added 41 yards on 10 carries, adding fantasy value to his game. He led the team to two important overtime drives to secure the win, and late game heroics are starting to become a regular occurrence for him.

Green Bay is middle of the road against opposing passers this season in terms of yards given up, but they rank in the upper third of teams with just seven passing touchdowns allowed and nine interceptions. Cam may have a turnover or two, but his running and playmaking should make him an excellent fantasy option all the same against a team that will likely force the Panthers to throw the ball. We have him as a borderline top-5 option and he should be active in all leagues.

CAR QB Cam Newton - Week 8, 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 vs. Indianapolis

Cam Newton played better than his stat line looked last week. In a convincing victory over the Eagles, Cam threw for 197 yards and a touchdown and ran for 20 more yards and another touchdown. Unfortunately, he also threw three picks. However, two of those picks were pretty fluky and weren’t really indicative for how he’s been playing this season.

This week, Cam should bounce back against a Colts defense that has given up a ton of passing yards this year. Indianapolis ranks 30th in the league in passing yards allowed this season, and while they have forced 12 interceptions this year, they should be an excellent matchup for Cam Newton and the Panthers. We have Newton right around our top-5 this week and he should be active in all leagues.

CAR QB Cam Newton - Week 7, 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 vs. Philadelphia

Cam Newton came up big against the Seahawks last week. While he threw a pair of interceptions, he also threw for 269 yards and a touchdown and added 30 rushing yards and a rushing touchdown in a big victory for the Panthers.

This week, Cam has a great matchup against an Eagles defense that has given up 261 yards per game through the air and nine passing touchdowns so far this season. While he’ll have to watch out for Eagles defensive tackle Fletcher Cox all game, he should be able to put up good numbers against a vulnerable defense and we have him as a top-5 option this week. Fantasy owners should have him active.
