Expect more of the same after Newton walked out on a press conference following the Panthers' 41-38 loss to the Saints that sent the defending NFC champions to 1-5 out of the gate this season.
In the waning minutes of the fourth quarter, a fantastic rushing touchdown and subsequent two-point conversion tied the game at 38-38.
With his 15th 400-yard game, Brees broke a tie with Peyton Manning for the most all time in the regular season. Newton threw for 322 yards and two touchdowns and an interception in a 27-for-47 game.
"Obviously quarterbacks are doing it for a reason, offensive coordinators are game-planning that way for a reason", Ealy said.

The mayor says "we can not tolerate these tragedies multiplying in communities across America". Three people died at the scene, and 12 others were transported to local hospitals.
"Just got to find ways to win the football game", Newton said twice in answering questions during an 80-second postgame press conference.
SEAHAWKS 26, FALCONS 24: In Seattle, Steven Hauschka's 44-yard field goal with 1:57 remaining capped the 20th career fourth quarter or overtime comeback for Seattle quarterback Russell Wilson. Even still, Newton has to show a bit more professionalism. He also caught a 50-yard touchdown pass in the third quarter on a play that Brees said didn't quite develop as drawn up because Fleener and receiver Willie Snead ran their routes too close together, causing a convergence of players over the middle. Again, this kind of thing happens - teams go into the Superdome and get out-scored by the Saints all the time - but for Cam Newton, this was the latest frustrating moment in what has been a super frustrating season. The Saints were called for three pass interference penalties in or near the end zone, all leading to Panthers TDs.
"This is what Saints fans do, we go in and have our heart attacks, but in the end, we appreciate the win", said Saints fan Carnell Wright. "I think there are some things out there that I know we didn't do that we need to execute - little things that are going to cost us in the future". Lutz, the hero kicker, is a rookie out of Georgia State. He missed a 53-yarder against Carolina, but Payton banked on Lutz in the final seconds and it paid off. "We've just got to get better", he said. He's got the moxie.
WHERE'S THE RUSH?: Panthers starting defensive ends Kony Ealy and Charles Johnson have yet to register a sack this season through five games. He's got mental toughness. Cornerback Zack Sanchez bit on a double move, giving Cooks an open pasture on his 87-yard score.
