| 0:00.0 | What's up everybody, welcome to the PIXX Podcast, CVS Sports Daily, NFL Podcasts, I'm |
| 0:14.9 | Wil Brinson, I'm your host, and this is our second emergency podcast of the week because |
| 0:23.2 | incompletely unexpected and inexplicable news, the Carolina Panthers have brought back |
| 0:31.1 | Cam Newton joining me to break it down, the one the only, John Breach, what's up buddy? |
| 0:35.4 | Brinson, this is literally the last thing I had on my NFL bingo card today, if you |
| 0:39.7 | would have told me Odell Beckham was signing to play soccer in the Premier League, I would |
| 0:46.3 | have believed that before I believed that Cam Newton was going back to Carolina. |
| 0:50.9 | It ranks pretty high on the list of things that you would not expect to have happened |

| 1:09.5 | is this a, let's forget about Sam Darnold and the second round pick we traded for him in |

| 1:31.2 | them have been spot on, which is a high number, you know, I'm going to give Brinson credit |
| 1:34.9 | there, but it does feel like, you know what, we we crap down our pants with the Sam Darnold |
| 1:41.3 | right? It looks horrible and now he's injured and now we can just kind of shove that aside, |
| 1:47.4 | pretend it never happened. And the best part is you can do all that and be happy with where |
| 1:52.4 | you are because you're four and five, you're only a half game out of the seven seed in the NFC. |
| 1:57.4 | So it's your season's not over by any means. And if you bring in a component quarterback and maybe |
| 2:02.7 | one who's beloved by the fan base, all of a sudden things feel a little different. So yeah, |
| 2:08.4 | I think it's a great football move because there's not a lot of guys who are available out there. |
