Despite a record-setting debut by rookie quarterback Cam Newton, the Carolina Panthers surrendered a pair of fourth-quarter touchdowns to lose their season opener 28-21 today to the Arizona Cardinals in University of Phoenix Stadium. Newton drove the Panthers to the Arizona 6-yard line with just over one minute to play but his fourth-down pass to Mike Goodson came up one yard short of a first down at the Cardinals' 2-yard line. The decisive score came when Arizona rookie Patrick Peterson returned a punt 89 yards for a touchdown that put the Cardinals ahead 28-21 with 7:15 remaining.
CARRY ON
