The Panthers made five trips inside the Lions five-yard line, and the Detroit defense forced two turnovers and yielded only three field goals. ¾The contest was also the first of two straight games in 1999 where Detroit s defense did not yield a touchdown. That accomplishment marked the first time since 1983 that the Lions have kept opponents out of the end zone in back-to-back games (45-3 win vs. Pittsburgh November 24, 1983 and 13-2 win vs. Minnesota December 5, 1983). ¾The Panthers evened the series record at 1-1 with a 31-7 home victory on September 15, ¾Despite having both a fumble return and a punt return go for touchdowns, the Lions fell short at the eventual NFC Champion Panthers, 21-14, on December 14, ¾LB Boss Bailey (34 yards) and S Kenoy Kennedy (64 yards) each returned interceptions back for touchdowns in the Lions lastminute loss against Carolina at Ford Field on October 16, The last time the Lions had two interceptions for touchdowns in a game was at Seattle October 24, 1976 when Levi Johnson and Lem Barney both returned interceptions for touchdowns. ¾After a sluggish start against Carolina on November 20, 2011, the Lions overcame a 17-point deficit to defeat the Panthers behind QB Matthew Stafford s 5 touchdown passes, all to five different receivers. Just recently re-acquired, RB Kevin Smith rushed for a career-high 140 yards (201 total yards), along with 2 rushing and 1 receiving touchdowns.
