CHARLOTTE, N.C.--

It was third-and-8 and Carolina running back DeAngelo Williams appeared bottled up at the line of scrimmage. The television camera was fixed on the scrum - before jerking to the right while Arizona players looked on in bewilderment.

Williams had bounced off three defenders, sneaked through a tiny hole and was 13 yards downfield.

While Williams' 77-yard run on Sunday was the most talked about, this shorter run is what has defined Williams, who in the victory over the Cardinals became the Panthers' all-time leading rusher with 3,352 yards.

The 5-foot-9 Williams surpassed DeShaun Foster's record in 185 fewer carries.

The Panthers will likely need another big game from Williams to knock off unbeaten New Orleans Sunday.
