Quick Take: Newton outplays rookie counterpart

Published: Aug 17, 2012 at 04:41 PM

Around the League editor Gregg Rosenthal has his takeaways from the game:

From Around the League:
» Lessons from Friday's preseason games

» The good news for Ryan Tannehill: Matt Moore struggled even more than the rookie. He threw for only 57 yards on 15 attempts. Moore hasn't picked up Joe Philbin's system quickly.

» Jonathan Stewart left the game with a calf injury, but he tweeted after the game it wasn't serious. We'll take his word for it; Stewart was seen dancing on the sidelines in the fourth quarter.

» Cam Newton looks ready for the regular season. Three drives, only three incompletions, and 17 points scored.
