Stafford threw his first interception in Week 10 when a red-zone pass bounced off the helmet of defensive tackle Derrick Brown and into the hands of former Rams safety Nick Scott, ending a scoring threat. This ended the longest streak in the NFL without an interception at 318 passing attempts.
The Panthers didn’t get off to a good start on special teams or defense, but it was all Carolina after Los Angeles’ first touchdown. Chuba Hubbard caught a 35-yard touchdown to cap the Panthers’ opening possession.
The Rams are now trailing for the first time since their Week 6 win over Baltimore. The club started that game down 3–0 and then rallied to win 17–3.
