LANDOVER Carolina Panthers Customized Jerseys , Md. (AP) — Following his prime-time benching and criticism from a former teammate, Josh Norman wanted to shut off his phone because the noise was getting so loud.Then, he silenced it all.Norman bounced back from one of the worst games of his career by intercepting Cam Newton and forcing a fumble in the Washington Redskins‘ 23-17 victory over the Carolina Panthers on Sunday.Longtime Redskins safety DeAngelo Hall said Norman had gone “Hollywood,” speculation swirled about his value to the Redskins and the flashy cornerback was on the defensive even when he wasn’t on the field.“It was like I was playing cornerback against everybody,” said Norman, who had two game-altering plays and four tackles to put an embarrassing showing at New Orleans behind him. “I played within the defense and played within myself.”Defensive teammates mobbed Norman after each of his forced turnovers. After a defensive unit dinner earlier in the week Carolina Panthers T-Shirts , Norman led the way for a group that made a crucial stop at its 16-yard line to hold on for the victory.“He came out and performed as he should,” safety D.J. Swearinger said. “We needed that from him. He needed that for himself. And we needed to see that as a group.”Norman ended his 19-game interception drought by catching a jump ball thrown by Newton on a third-and-long play early in the second quarter, his first pick since Dec. 24, 2016. Norman also popped the ball out of Panthers rookie receiver D.J. Moore’s hands in a showcase performance against the team that abruptly cut ties with him after his All-Pro 2015 season.“It’s fitting that we break that little streak against them,” a smiling Norman said. “I guess we got a flair for the dramatic somehow.”Newton threw for 275 yards and two touchdowns on 27 of 40 passing and rushed for 43 yards in a turnover-marred loss. He engineered a late drive that got the Panthers into the red zone before stalling out.Carolina (3-2) was long before that doomed by turnovers, including Moore’s on a punt return that set up Alex Smith’s 22-yard TD pass to Vernon Davis.“We kind of dug ourselves in a hole early https://www.carolinapanthersfanshop.com/hats ,” Newton said. “We still found a way to put ourselves in a winning position, but we didn’t. We’ll get better from it.”Adrian Peterson rushed for 97 yards on 17 carries and Smith connected on touchdown passes to Davis and Paul Richardson for the Redskins (3-2), who looked like an entirely different team than the one that got stomped 43-19 by New Orleans on Monday night — when coach Jay Gruden benched Norman in the second half.BIG-GUY CATCHESOffensive linemen saved their quarterbacks with some heads-up, sure-handed plays.When the ball popped out of Newton’s hands late in the first quarter, Panthers left guard Greg Van Roten caught it and made up some ground — but got only a 7-yard loss as credit for his efforts.Redskins left tackle Trent Williams caught the ball when Smith fumbled early in the fourth and rushed for 8 yards to help set up a field goal by Dustin Hopkins.“When I caught it, I just tried to go north and get a couple yards Carolina Panthers Hoodie ,” Williams said. “Definitely didn’t want to fumble it.”KICK OUT OF ITAfter hitting a 63-yard winner last week, Carolina’s Graham Gano missed his first kick of any kind this season when he was wide left on the extra-point attempt following Newton’s TD pass to Devin Funchess. Gano, who played for the Redskins from 2009-11, entered 7 of 7 on field goals and 11 of 11 on extra points.Hopkins connected on a 56-yard field goal that made it 20-6, the longest of his NFL career.INJURIESPanthers: DT Kyle Love was slow to get up after being injured midway through the fourth quarter. … TE Greg Olsen returned after missing three games with a broken right foot. … WR Damiere Byrd was out with an ankle injury, forcing Moore into return duties.Redskins: RG Brandon Scherff tweaked his knee on a fourth-down play in the third quarter Luke Kuechly Color Rush Jersey , but returned on the next drive. … RB Chris Thompson missed the game with rib and knee injuries, while WR Jamison Crowder sat out with an ankle injury.UP NEXTPanthers: Visit the defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday.Redskins: Host the NFC East rival Dallas Cowboys on Sunday. CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP)The Carolina Panthers wasted little time naming a new defensive coordinator after Steve Wilks left to become head coach of the Arizona Cardinals. Panthers coach Ron Rivera promoted defensive line coach Eric Washington as Wilks’ replacement on Monday, just hours after the hiring of Wilks became official. Rivera said after the season that had a hunch Wilks would get a head coaching job, and was prepared in the event that it happened. Wilks’ departure means the Panthers will enter next season with three new coordinators. Rivera fired offensive coordinator Mike Shula two days after the season and replaced him with Norv Turner. Special teams coordinator Thomas McGaughey was replaced by former assistant coach Chase Blackburn. McGaughey’s contract was up and he wanted to pursue other options. It’s the second straight season the Panthers have lost a defensive coordinator to a head coaching gig. Last year the Buffalo Bills hired Sean McDermott as their new head coach. It’s expected that Wilks will take a few current Carolina assistants with him, including linebackers coach Al Holcomb and assistant offensive line coach Ray Brown. Washington has served as the Panthers defensive line coach for the past seven seasons. During that span the Panthers defensive line has recorded more sacks (219) than any team in the NFL. Washington’s defensive line has not only been productive in getting to the quarterback C.J. Anderson Jersey , but also fared well against the run. Carolina has ranked in the top six in the NFL in four of the past six seasons in run defense, including a No. 2 ranking in 2013. Under Washington, the Panthers defensive line has featured two All-Pro selections and two Pro Bowl selections. Since 2013, a Panthers defensive lineman has earned NFC Defensive Player of the Week three times and NFC Defensive Player of the Month twice. The Panthers defense has finished in the top 10 in defense five of the last six seasons, including four consecutive from 2012-15. Washington has been a part of a Carolina coaching staff that has led the Panthers to playoff appearances in four of the past five seasons, including a Super Bowl 50 appearance two seasons ago. —
