Carolina Panthers vs Seattle Seahawks
Head to head
Preview
How it plays out
Carolina Panthers vs Seattle Seahawks is a cross-division NFC test that could swing the conference picture. On paper this is about as lopsided as it gets: Seattle Seahawks at 72% to Carolina Panthers's 28%, spread SEA -3.
Tactically, Carolina Panthers will want to lean on physical corner to attack Seattle Seahawks, whose offensive line is the obvious pressure point. Going the other way, Seattle Seahawks's disruptive defense could punish Carolina Panthers if overall talent goes unaddressed. Expect both staffs, Dave Canales and Mike Macdonald, to script around exactly that battle.
Keep an eye on Bryce Young (QB) and Jaxon Smith-Njigba (WR): the two most likely to decide it with a single play. Panthers get the home crowd, worth a few points of swing before kickoff.
