The 49ers were aggressive early with two failed fourth-down conversions which would consequently lead to two Panthers' field goals to end the half.
The 49ers have allowed four sacks along with six penalties for 45 yards. Hoyer finished the first half going 11-of-15 for 88 passing yards. Carlos Hyde leads the backfield with seven carries for 44 rushing yards while Garçon has three catches for 44 receiving yards.
The defense has held the Panthers to just 13 points. Panthers receiver Kelvin Benjamin and tight Greg Olsen have two catches combined while rookie running back Christian McCaffrey has been held in check with 50 total yards.
