Not only did the Panthers (6-6) fail to capitalize more on their interception hat trick, they lost four players to injury by the fourth quarter, including cornerback Jaycee Horn to a concussion after his second interception. When Brown notched his second interception, 6 1/2 minutes remained, and it produced celebratory cheers from throughout the 49ers' embattled defense, including luxury-suite claps from injured stars Fred Warner and Nick Bosa. That takeaway didn't necessarily secure the victory, but the Panthers still got no closer.
