Fire Alarm Pulled at Panthers’ Hotel in Seattle

Kickoff for the game is set for 4:05 p.m.

Despite Seattle’s sub-.500 record and meltdown against the Bengals, Panthers players said this week that the Seahawks remain one of the best teams in the NFC.

“It was a panic early on, trying to get out the huddle”. In the receiving end, Doug Baldwin had 70 yards in three receptions while Jermaine Kearse added 38 yards and a touchdown in two catches. “We’ve got to get back to who we are, and that’s what we do is finish games”. Graham seemed to have more of an impact on the New Orleans offense when he was with the Saints. Their game is at 1, so maybe they had a few time to nap.

It hasn’t been a pretty fortunate start for the tight end Jimmy Graham’s professional American football career being with the Seattle Seahawks.

Russell Wilson acknowledged the need this week to get the ball into Graham’s hands more often, “We need to find ways to get him more involved, but not force it. He’s a special player, he’s one of a kind so we’ve got to find that”. The offense can be blamed for failing to convert on third downs and eat up a few clock, and the defense can be blamed for failing to make a stop when one was needed. “We’ll play (three) quarters and three-fourths of that fourth quarter”. He posted an 8.0 quarterback rating against the Seahawks last year and if anything can derail his high level of play this year, it has to be them. But he’s averaging more than one yard less per carry than last season. On the season, he has completed 55.4 percent of his passes for 809 yards, seven touchdowns and two interceptions. What do the Seahawks need to do after a disappointing collapse in Cincinnati? “We struggled through it at the start last year and we’re struggling through it at the start this year”. We weren’t fighting for everything. Somehow, we’re just not finishing.

They’re regulars on our what to watch list and return this week.

With the Seahawks coming off their biggest collapse under Pete Carroll, former Seattle wide receiver Kevin Norwood believes this is a statement game for both teams. Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson plays with an improvising, creative style that leads to risk taking.

Firstly, they flew across the country, and must play in the NFL’s loudest stadium. The stats favor the Panthers overall, even if it’s a small margin.

The Seahawks can’t afford to drop to 2-4, not with the way the Arizona Cardinals are playing.

The teams will meet for the fifth time in four seasons today at CenturyLink Field in Seattle in a series the Seahawks have dominated of late.
