The Seattle Seahawks will be facing a familiar foe this Sunday when they take on the Carolina Panthers. The Panthers have recently announced that Andy Dalton will be their starting quarterback for the game, and it will be a matchup that Seahawks fans are sure to remember.
Dalton has been a thorn in the side of the Seahawks for years, having faced them four times while playing for the Cincinnati Bengals. He has a 3-1 record against Seattle, including a win in the 2013 season that ended the Seahawks’ chance at a perfect season.
The Seahawks have had some success against Dalton, however. In the most recent matchup between the two teams, Seattle was able to limit Dalton to just 154 yards passing and one touchdown. They also sacked him four times and forced two turnovers.
The Panthers are hoping that Dalton can bring some stability to their offense, which has struggled this season. He is coming off a strong performance against the New Orleans Saints, where he threw for 372 yards and three touchdowns.
The Seahawks will be looking to take advantage of a Panthers offense that has been inconsistent this season. Seattle’s defense is one of the best in the league and they will be looking to pressure Dalton and force him into making mistakes.
It will be an interesting matchup between two teams that have faced each other many times in the past. The Seahawks will be looking to get revenge for their loss in 2013, while the Panthers will be hoping that Dalton can lead them to victory. No matter who comes out on top, it should be an exciting game for fans of both teams.
