What you need to know about the Seahawks
Seattle's passing attack was lethal in the team's Week 13 win over the Rams. Smith completed 28 of 39 passes for 367 yards, three touchdowns and one interception for a quarterback rating of 116.1. His top two pass catchers were Tyler Lockett (9-128-1) and DK Metcalf (8-127-1).
Seattle has a lot on the line in the final month of the regular season. The Seahawks currently hold the final Wild Card spot in the NFC and trail the San Francisco 49ers by one game in the NFC West race. With games remaining against the 49ers, Chiefs and Jets, Seattle can't afford to slip up and lose at home this week to the Panthers.
What you need to know about the Panthers
Meanwhile, Carolina was able to grind out a solid victory over the Denver Broncos two weeks ago, winning 23-10. Carolina's success was spearheaded by the efforts of WR D.J. Moore, who caught four passes for 103 yards and one TD, and QB Sam Darnold, who passed for one TD and 164 yards in addition to punching in one rushing touchdown. Darnold ended up with a quarterback rating of 103.8.
The Panthers' offense showed some signs of life in Darnold's first start of the season against a very talented Denver defense. They will be facing a Seattle defense in Week 14 that has been struggling as of late -- particularly against the run. The Seahawks are the second-worst rushing defense in the NFL, allowing 155.3 yards per game on the ground, which could open the door for a big game from Carolina running backs D'Onta Foreman and Chuba Hubbard.
