It's easy to see why Cam Newton is nicknamed "Superman."
With pressure converging upon him in the third quarter of Monday's game against the Indianapolis Colts, Newton spun out of a surefire sack, then hurdled over Darius Butler for the first down.
If Newton continues to make plays like these, he'll remain a viable MVP contender.
