But Chicagos drive stalled and Gould missed wide right.The momentum turned immediately.It was huge, said Olsen, who spent four years with the Bears. We got in the huddle and said, Thats our break. We were waiting for something to bounce our way and that was it. We went right down and bang, bang. ... Cam got in an awesome groove and from that point on he was on fire.Newton capped the drive with a 9-yard pass to Olsen to pull Carolina within 21-14 at halftime.

Forte had 61 yards rushing and 105 yards receiving and a touchdown before his costly fumble.There were many opportunities for us to put this one away offensively, Cutler said. We put our defence in a bad place, and I thought they played real well, given the circumstances and field position we put them in. A lot of that is on me.It was also a big day for Newton, who was comfortable running the no-huddle set a€” just as he has most of the season.Hes pretty good at it, Olsen said. Its been good for us this year. Sometimes certain situations dictate that you cant stay in it, but when weve done it weve been pretty successful. When we need a spark we can go to it. And it seems like it does spark us.The Bears scored 14 points off Carolina turnovers to build a 21-7 lead in the first half.Cornerback Isaiah Frey stripped Panthers receiver Kelvin Benjamin of the ball and recovered at the Panthers 28, setting up a 10-yard TD pass from Cutler to Forte.Chicagos Willie Young beat guard Amini Silatolu for a strip-sack fumble on Newton and Lamarr Houston recovered at the Carolina 13 on the next possession.
