The Facts: As the Panthers begin OTAs, most of the most of the focus now will be on Newton, coming off two straight down years after his MVP season of 2015, and how he does in new OC Norv Turner's system that will focus on more play-action and high-percentage passes. "I see Cam as a guy that can be in the mid- to high-60s in the completion percentage," Turner said.

Diehards Line: As ESPN.com points out, that would be a huge leap for Newton, who has a career passing percentage of 58.5 and a 56.0 rate the past two seasons combined. "We're working hard in terms of scheming and getting the ball out quick," Turner said. "We want a good mix of dropback, play-action." Since Newton arrived from Auburn, the Panthers' offense has been based around the zone-read, where a quarterback's second option if he doesn't hand off to the running back is to run himself. That will remain a part of the scheme. But under Turner you'll hear a lot more about the RPO -- Run Pass Option -- in which the quarterback's second option is to drop back and throw. "To me, Cam is one of the three or four -- if not THE hardest -- guys to defend in the league," Turner said. "Coaches spend extra time when they play against Cam Newton because he can beat you in so many different ways." Expect Turner to look for ways to leverage that.
