In Week 3 the Carolina Panthers snapped the NFL’s longest losing streak with a gratifying 22-14 home victory over their division rival, the New Orleans Saints. The victory at least temporarily dissipated the thick, dark clouds of apathy and frustration that have hung over the Carolinas for way too long. While all is definitely not well with the Panthers, we can enjoy some sunshine this week. Here are the key stats that led to Carolina’s victory:
44 yards - The Panthers first score was a 44-yard fumble return scoop-and-score by Marquis Haynes after Frankie Luvu violently stripped the ball from Alvin Kamara.
