Testaverde leads Panthers to first home win of season 31-14 over hapless 49ers

Postgame Recaps, Storylines, and News

Trent Dilfer was intercepted four times by the Panthers but the crushing turnover was a fumbled punt return that snuffed every bit of momentum out of a strong second-half start.

Dilfer was also sacked six times by a Carolina defense that had mustered only 10 sacks in its previous 11 games. He also suffered the ignominy of losing to 44-year-old Vinny Testaverde, who overcame two picks to lead the Panthers to their first home win in more than a year and end a five-game losing skid.

The 49ers had closed a 17-point halftime deficit to 17-14 before Nate Clements fumbled a punt on his own 11-yard line, giving up the ball and an easy score to Carolina.
