The San Francisco 49ers remain unbeaten with a 51-13 win over the Carolina Panthers on Sunday at Levi's Stadium.
The Panthers suffered their first loss since Kyle Allen replaced injured quarterback Cam Newton as the starter in Week 3.
Heading into Week 8, head coach Ron Rivera told reporters Newton was still rehabbing his foot injury, which made the decision to start Allen once again straightforward. The end of Allen's winning streak could make it easier to restore the three-time Pro Bowler as the starter once he's fully healthy.
On the other side, this is only the second time since the merger that the 49ers have started a season 7-0.
