From The Mag: How Newton's joy made (great) football fun
..Cam plays football as if he owns the entire field, every single blade of it. As the Falcons were being introduced at Atlanta's Georgia Dome before the Panthers' only loss, in Week 16, Newton stood just beyond the tunnel formed by cheerleaders and band, almost close enough to be singed by two cylinders of flame at the back of the end zone. No other Panthers teammate or coach was near him, and he stood tall and still, an infantry line of photographers crouched at his feet. He stared at each Atlanta player as the Falcons waited for their names to be announced, as if making sure his 6-foot-5, 245-pound body was the first thing they saw as they prepared to play the game.
"I don't know why he does that," says backup quarterback Derek Anderson. "I see it, but I haven't figured it out. I guess because he can?"
