Newton had no business losing this game. Even with Wall having 9 or 10 in the box, they still were chewing them up running around the edges. They just ran straight up the middle too often.

And even with all that, they out gained Wall by 2 to 1 probably. Trick play and a blocked punt for a TD early and Wall held on for dear life the rest of the way 

 

I don't know if Newton winning was in the bag if their coaching does things differently. Wall coaches started to panic in the second half and go for the long ball too much. They were consistently killing Newton in the short passing game. They stay consistent and I think they get 1-2 more scores.
