Preview
Both teams are in the thick of things in the NFC Wild Card race. Another win by the Seahawks would give them a leg up on other teams, namely the Dallas Cowboys and Green Bay Packers, in terms of playoff positioning and potential tie-breaking scenarios.
The anthers arguably beat themselves in last week’s 20-19 loss to the Detroit Lions. Head coach Ron Rivera told reporters the team still needs to take away positives even from games like that, and move forward by amending previous mistakes.
“Got to go back and fix them. We take the good with the bad. You’re not going to go out and beat everybody all the time. We’ve won six games, we’ve lost four.”
For Seattle, it is easier said than done. Carolina has yet to lose at home this season, amassing a perfect 5-0 record in Charlotte.
The Seahawks lead the NFL in rushing with 154.3 yards per game. This has primarily been with a half-committee backfield, riding the hot hand between Chris Carson, Mike Davis and 2018 first-round pick Rashad Penny through 10 games. Seattle’s bread and butter a few seasons ago while in the midst of competing for Super Bowl championships — a strong, clock-dominant ground attack led by Marshawn Lynch.
