By the Numbers

Seahawks offense vs. Carolina defense

  • Rushing yards per game Seahawks – 116.5 (17th) vs. Rushing yards against per game Carolina – 141.1 (23rd).
  • Passing yards per game Seahawks – 244.4 (7th) vs. Passing yards against per game Carolina – 212.5 (14th).
  • Total yards per game Seahawks – 360.9 (9th) vs. Total yards against per game Carolina – 348.2 (19th).
  • Points per game Seahawks – 26.5 (5th) vs. Points per game against Carolina – 22.2 (14th).
  • QB sacks allowed Seahawks – 31(19th) vs. QB sacks Carolina – 25 (20th-tied).

Carolina plays solid run defense, and the Seahawks running back group is banged up. It will be up to the offensive line to keep Panthers defensive end Brian Burns out of the backfield on pass plays. If they can maintain a clean pocket, Geno Smith should have plenty of open targets.

Seahawks defense vs. Rams offense

  • Rushing yards per game Carolina – 116.5 (17th) vs. Rushing yards against per game Seahawks – 141.1 (23rd).
