SAN FRANCISCO -- Andrew Luck faked out the defence, ran untouched into the end zone for a 6-yard touchdown and emphatically threw down the ball with a little extra oomph. Even he thought it might be a career-best spike. "It was nice to score," he said matter-of-factly of the moment. Jim Harbaughs former quarterback sure outplayed his current one, and it wasnt even close. Luck passed for 164 yards while facing his college coach for the first time, and the Indianapolis Colts defeated the San Francisco 49ers 27-7 on Sunday. Trent Richardson scored a 1-yard touchdown on his first carry in his Colts debut after being acquired on Wednesday from the Browns. He was drafted two spots behind top-pick Luck last year. Ahmad Bradshaw added a 1-yard TD run in the final minutes, and Adam Vinatieri kicked a pair of field goals. Luck kept coming through again to give Indianapolis (2-1) more opportunities. "I know hes grinning from ear to ear," Colts coach Chuck Pagano said. "Ive never seen him smile the way he was smiling after this one." This marked Colin Kaepernicks his first home loss at Candlestick Park as a starter. Frank Gore ran for 82 yards after going for 60 total in his first two games, but there were few bright spots for Kaepernick as San Francisco (1-2) struggled to establish a passing game with tight end Vernon Davis sidelined by a hamstring injury. The defence committed numerous costly penalties for the third straight week. Luck completed his initial six passes and spoiled the home teams reunion day between coaches on both sides who know each others tendencies dating to their days at Stanford. The Colts sure appeared to be better prepared. Luck sent third-year coach Harbaugh to consecutive losses for the first time. He was happier about the fact his two sisters who attend Stanford got to see him play. "I wasnt caught up in, Oh my gosh, Im going up against Coach Harbaugh, (Greg) Roman and (Vic) Fangio," Luck said. "I figured any time you play this sport, coaches and players come and go so much that you always end up going against someone that you played for or played with or had a good relationship with." Before Sunday, Harbaugh was 7-0 following a defeat -- and Harbaugh faced criticism for playing and starting Aldon Smith two days after the linebacker was arrested and jailed on suspicion of driving under the influence and marijuana possession. 49ers CEO Jed York said after the game Smith would seek treatment and miss Thursdays game at St. Louis and perhaps be away from the team longer. Smith apologized to "everybody I let down" while acknowledging he has a problem and will fix it. Kaepernick had been 4-0 on his home field since becoming a starter last November. This time, his 49ers were 10 1/2-point favourites, but looked nothing like the better team in getting thoroughly outplayed. He completed 2 of his 8 first-half passes and wound up just 13 for 27 for 150 yards with an interception and three sacks. "Theres no one thing, we just didnt execute this offence," Kaepernick said. The 49ers had six penalties for 48 yards and didnt look much better than they did in their five-turnover, 29-3 loss at division rival Seattle last week. Kendall Hunter ran for a 13-yard score late in the first quarter, but San Francisco has scored 10 total points the past two games. Richardson carried 13 times for 35 yards, giving the Colts quite the 1-2 punch with Bradshaws 19 rushes for 95 yards. Luck took advantage of a pair of penalties by San Francisco to open Indianapolis seven-play, 80-yard scoring drive over the opening 3:40 for a 7-0 lead. On the Colts first play from scrimmage, safety Donte Whitner received a 15-yard unnecessary roughness penalty when he led with his helmet on a hit against Bradshaw after a 3-yard catch. Tarell Brown was flagged for pass interference on the next play. Another penalty on Brown, for holding, gave the Colts a first down at the 23 midway through the second quarter and set up Vinatieris 43-yard field goal. He kicked a 41-yarder in the third quarter. Brown was penalized yet again for pass interference midway through the fourth. Luck kept drives going with clutch plays as the Colts won the third straight meeting with San Francisco. On third-and-9 and throwing from near his end zone late in the third, Luck hit Reggie Wayne for a 25-yard gain in which Wayne broke through several tackle attempts. All-Pro linebacker Patrick Willis went down on the play and was helped off the field moments later with a groin injury that sidelined him for the rest of the game. The Colts busted through San Franciscos defensive line, which lost nose tackle Ian Williams to a season-ending ankle injury last week. "Its one of those games you look back on down the road and say, This was a signature win, maybe one that helped you to do great things, that helped you accomplish the program you built," Pagano said.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Cam Newton wasnt flawless on Sunday. He didnt need to be. Newton threw for one touchdown and ran for another to overcome a shaky start, the defence intercepted Matt Ryan three times and the Carolina Panthers beat the Atlanta Falcons 34-10 for their fourth straight victory. Offensive tackle Jordan Gross was more impressed with Newton on Sunday than in the previous three games in which the third-year quarterback played near-perfect ball. "There were times today where he could have gotten rattled," Gross said. "He took some shots and had some turnovers, but he didnt (get rattled). He kept on swinging." Newton entered on quite a streak, completing 77 per cent of his passes with eight touchdowns -- six passing and two rushing -- and no turnovers in his previous three games. But he had two first half interceptions and wasnt sharp on his deep balls, regularly overthrowing his receivers. "He got a little carried away early on and tried to make things happen," Panthers coach Ron Rivera said. "The ball sailed a little bit on him today and when hes doing that its because hes anxious. Hes excited. He wants to do well. Its unfortunate that he didnt bring the ball down a little bit because there were some big plays left out there." Still, Newton bounced back to throw for 249 yards, including a 14-yard touchdown pass to tight end Greg Olsen, and also scored on an 8-yard run. Newton called his play "unacceptable." "I didnt put my best foot forward in the first half," he said. But his teammates were quick to back him up. "Everybody gets wrapped up in stats and quarterback ratings and yards per catch or whatever," Olsen said. "At the end of the day, when you go out and you win 34-10 and you are the quarterback -- you did your job." The Panthers (5-3) pulled within a game of the New Orleans Saints, who lost to the New York Jets. Fullback Mike Tolbert scored his fifth touchdown in the last four games on a 4-yard burst and cornerback Drayton Florence intercepted Ryan and returned it 38 yards for a score to seal the win. At 2-6, the Falcons post-season hopes are fading fast. The Falcons continued to struggle without Julio Jones and Roddy White. Tony Gonzalez had six catches for 81 yards and a touchdown but the running game continues to struggle as Steven Jackson and company were held to a combined 78 yards on the ground. The Panthers defence liimited Ryan to 219 yards and forced four turnovers -- three interceptions.dddddddddddd "I know Matt. Hes going to look at this film. Hes going to obsess over it," Gonzalez said. "I have no doubt hes going to bounce back." The Panthers got a huge break early in the fourth quarter. Leading 17-10, Carolinas Brandon LaFell broke free in Atlanta territory for a big gain but had the ball punched out from behind by cornerback Asante Samuel. The Falcons had a chance to recover, but the ball bounced right back into LaFells arms while he was on the ground. Newton scored on an 8-yard run on the next play to give Carolina a 24-10 lead with nine minutes remaining. "When youre winning, things happen in your favour," LaFell said. "With all of the bad luck around here last year, that thing would have been lost. We got the luck of the bounce." The Panthers put the game away on the next possession when Florence stepped in front of Ryans pass in the flat and returned it for the score -- the first "pick 6" allowed by the Falcons since 2010, a span of 47 games. "If you play sports long enough, there will be ups and downs, and waves throughout that," Ryan said. "Ive played poorly before, but its about trying to stop that at one, and moving on. I wasnt able to do that." Carolina led 14-10 at halftime despite the two interceptions by Newton. Newtons 13-quarter streak of turnover-free football ended when he went long for Ted Ginn Jr. and was intercepted by Desmond Trufant in the second quarter. Newton turned it over again in the final seconds of the first half on an interception by rookie Robert Alford in the back of the end zone, ending a golden scoring opportunity. Atlantas only touchdown of the game came when Ryan hooked up on a 17-yard strike with Gonzalez in the back of the end zone. The Falcons might have had more, but Steven Jacksons 2-yard touchdown run was nullified on a holding penalty on lineman Garrett Reynolds forcing the Falcons to settle for a Matt Bryant field goal. NOTES: The Panthers lost starting right guard Chris Scott and backup Jeff Byers to injuries on Sunday, forcing them to use former defensive tackle Nate Chandler at that spot. ... The Panthers have led at halftime in all eight games this season. ... Jonathan Stewart had 43 yards rushing on nine carries and 22 yards receiving on three catches in his first game this season for the Panthers. ' ' '
