CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Carl Edwards heads to Texas Motor Speedway last in the playoff standings, which does not show how well he has run in this years Chase.Edwards was with the leaders last weekend at Martinsville Speedway when a tire problem caused him to crash into the wall during the opening race of the third round of NASCARs playoffs. Now hes 32 points below the cutline to advance to the final four championship race Nov. 20 at Homestead-Miami Speedway.He can salvage his chances with a victory in either of the next two races, starting Sunday at Texas Motor Speedway.We know what we have to do and we feel like we can do it, he said.Edwards is part of the four-car Joe Gibbs Racing contingent that made it into the round of eight of the playoffs. But when Jimmie Johnson won last weekend at Martinsville, it meant JGR cant get all four of its drivers into the championship race.In some regards, it took the prospect of points racing off the agenda for Edwards at Texas.We had a great run going there at Martinsville and obviously that was a huge disappointment, but it really makes things pretty simple this weekend, Edwards said.In 23 Sprint Cup Series starts at Texas, Edwards has led 655 laps and has three victories. He also has seven top-five and 12 top-10 finishes. Edwards also won a pair of Xfinity races at Texas in 2010 and 2011.Crew chief Dave Rogers believes Edwards can pull off another win at Texas, or win next week at Phoenix.Its tough to name two better racetracks for us to be in (this) situation, Rogers said. Texas offers a lot of character with bumps and an abrasive surface and Goodyear will be bringing a tire that wears out and falls off. That combination always yields an exciting race for our fans and plays into the strengths of Carl and this race team.BORLAND-RCRRichard Childress Racing will make a crew chief change for Paul Menard at the end of the season. Matt Borland will take over the pit box of Menards No. 27 team.

I got my point across. He got his point across. Thats it.Newton complained after Sundays 30-20 victory over Arizona that he wasnt getting the same treatment as other quarterbacks regarding late hits in the pocket.The NFL MVP said the breaking point was a non-call on a hit below the knees in the third quarter that the league has since admitted should have been a penalty, sources told ESPNs Ed Werder.Newton said after the game that he felt unsafe in the pocket and wanted to speak with Goodell. That happened Tuesday.Illegal hits for me start in the pocket, Newton said. I know when I am running the football, I am on my own. I understand that. Im not a dummy or oblivious to the fact that I run the football more than any quarterback who has ever played this game. I mean, duh. Im fine with that.In the pocket, thats all Im asking for. Just to get certain things, the standard of every person getting the same calls, thats all.The opposition has not been penalized for roughing the passer against Newton since the 2014 season, even though Newton has been hit 59 timees inside the pocket -- the ninth-highest total in the league.dddddddddddd One was called in the season opener against Denver but negated by an intentional grounding penalty.During that same time, other high-profile quarterbacks -- New Orleans Drew Brees?(10), Tom Brady?(five),?Aaron Rodgers?(four) and?Russell Wilson?(three) -- have drawn multiple roughing-the-passer penalties.That was one of Newtons points to Goodell. Said Newton on whether things will change: Well wait to see Sunday and moving forward.Panthers coach Ron Rivera, who spoke to Goodell on Monday, echoed that only time will tell whether officials do more to protect his franchise quarterback.The nice part was the commissioner was a willing listener, Rivera said. It was great. The nice thing is we had an opportunity that needed to be said.At the end of the day, its not about special treatment. Its about being treated the same.Newton said his focus now is helping the Panthers (2-5) prepare for Sundays game at Los Angeles.Im not talking about Roger Goodell no more, he said. I understand that was probably a lot of attention in the media this past couple of days. As far as right now, Im in straight preparation for the Los Angeles Rams. ' ' '
