Cam Newton is all over our NFL Week 8 Highlight Videos stream, but it was a play that was called back for holding, which might have been his most visually appealing feat.

Introducing the Cam Flip (Newton Nosedive?).

Dive? Check. Flip? Check. Faceplant leading to helmet flying into the air? Check. Stick the landing? Check, with a smile on top.

Watch the GIF after the jump.

The Panthers lost to the Vikings 24-21, but don't blame Newton. Carolina's quarterback finished with 290 total passing yards and three touchdowns. (He completed 22 of his 35 pass attempts.) Newton also led the Panthers in rushing with 53 yards on six carries.

For more Cam Newton highlights, check out the NFL Week 8 Highlight Videos stream and our Panthers blog, Catch Scratch Reader. For more on the Panthers loss to the Vikings, check out our game recap and in-game updates with this comprehensive StoryStream from SB Nation NFL.
