Newton sacked 5 times, still leads Panthers past Rams 13-10
LOS ANGELES — Cam Newton will accept any type of victory while the Carolina Panthers are trying to get their season back on track.
Even something as unattractive as the win they pulled off in their Hollywood debut.
Newton persevered through five sacks to pass for 225 yards and a touchdown, and the Panthers’ defense shut down Los Angeles in a 13-10 victory over the slumping Rams on Sunday.
Greg Olsen caught a touchdown pass in the first half and Graham Gano added two fourth-quarter field goals for the Panthers (3-5), who won their second straight after a four-game skid.
