There wasn’t much for reigning MVP Cam Newton to regret Monday night, as his Panthers defeated the Redskins 26-15. However, there was one incident Newton wishes he could have back. As Newton was scrambling towards the sideline, Trent Murphy made helmet-to-helmet contact, which wasn’t called.

After the hit, Newton threw the ball at Murphy and it resulted in a 15-yard penalty.

“I’ve got to be better than that,” Newton said. “That just can’t happen on my part. I just have to let the referees do their job, and obviously, it was a questionable hit, but I can’t throw the ball at a person. That’s against the rules too.”

Luckily this penalty didn’t come back to haunt Carolina.

The Panthers will end their season with division games against the Falcons and Buccaneers.
