Week 13 – @ Minnesota – L 31-13
QB: Newton was inaccurate and struggled badly. Pass Rush got to him as well. Ran well.
RB: Stewart looked great and was very patient in this one. Williams got injured so Stewart could be a good play with Williams out.
WR: Benjamin a decent game but should have been bigger if QB was better. Beat D on long play but QB missed. Would have been long TD. Brown got long TD but little else. Continues to look like a game-breaker.
TE: Olsen decent but also suffered because of QB. Should be fine going forward.
OL: Strong game run blocking but not good in pass protection.
Def: Average against weaker run game. Game flow limited passes against. Gave up good games to #1 WR and TE. Held everything else in check.
