Via Joe Person's twitter:

Panthers say Cam Newton's 77-yard TD pass was longest by No. 1 pick since merger in 1970.

Smith should get at least a little credit for running 45 of those yards

Valid, but Newton still has to see him open and get him the ball.

This kid is looking like something special.

Not sure if you serious or trying a in-direct way of hating on Cam.....

When the fug have catch and run been counted as seperate stats? Smitty didnt even do anything specatcular....

Smith got wide open and Newton got it to him, it was a tad short....not perfect, but still great.

The legend of Cam Newton is growing exponentially by the minute here.

It's like McCarthyism in this place. Smith got wide open and beat his man and took it to the house. Has it really gotten to the point where complimenting a good play by Steve Smith is being bashing Newton?

Wait thats the longest pass by a #1 pick EVER? Or a #1 pick as a rookie? I can't imagine that a guy like Peyton hasn't ever thrown a 77 yard TD but either way that's pretty impressive.

who knows, so many damn haters.... really sounded like a in-direct newton bash

[Ivan The Awesome]

Nice.

Smitty should be happy this year.

Steve Smith mad that play and broken coverage. Smith still is a burner in the open field. I'm loving it.
