    Cam Newton overthrew receivers. He spent much of Sunday fighting to keep his grip on the football amid a torrential downpour that slowed the game to a crawl.

    There were few of the big passing plays he made look so easy in his first two games, even fewer scoring chances, and more than enough reasons to get frustrated.

    Instead, the No. 1 overall draft pick by Carolina ignored it all and led the clutch drive that secured his first NFL victory, 16-10 over Jacksonville.
