Carolina Panthers QB Cam Newton didn't have the prettiest stat line in Week 16, but it was enough to win. Against the Oakland Raiders, Newton completed 18-of-29 passes for 170 yards, one touchdown and one interception. He also rushed 12 times for 60 yards and an extra touchdown.

The Panthers won 17-6 to extend their winning streak to three games.
Fantasy Impact: Newton has been one of the hottest QBs in the past month, and rewarded fantasy owners patient enough to stick with him after an early-season slump.
Newton will close out an up-and-down season with his second straight 4,000-yard year. He’ll once again be a hot commodity when fantasy drafts start up next August.
