This is your basic power play from the Panthers. Notice the block from the pulling left guard Andrew Norwell, as well as the one from right tackle Mike Remmers, who both get their men on the ground. This is Carolina’s favorite "gap scheme" run, and you’ll often see it with running back Jonathan Stewart, but he’s not the only one toting the ball on the power play.

the meat and potatoes of the article right here...

“They’re the most diverse and multidimensional running game in the NFL,” Cosell said, “and it isn’t even close.”

This is an offense that wants to grind it out on the ground, and they attack you in a number of different ways. Whereas some teams, like the Eagles, may run two or three different concepts in a game, the Panthers may run seven or eight. That’s not the only reason for their success. There are lots of teams that aren’t as effective that run systems like that, but it means that there is a lot to prepare for when this team lines up.

tried, failed...sorry

Just copy and paste.

"The beauty of the Panthers' run game is that there are so many layers to it. The main reason for those layers is the natural ability of quarterback Cam Newton, who is playing probably the best that I have ever seen him in the NFL. Are there still missed throws from time to time that likely drive some of the coaches nuts? Absolutely. But Newton has looked more comfortable, more confident and more in control of that offense than ever before without a big-time threat on the outside). Newton's arm talent and athleticism make this offense go."
