The Seattle Seahawks had a big win over the Carolina Panthers in Week 3 of the NFL season. The Seahawks were able to come away with a 30-27 victory, thanks to some big plays from quarterback Russell Wilson and the defense. Here are three takeaways from the Seahawks’ win over the Panthers:
1. Russell Wilson is an MVP Candidate: Wilson was outstanding in the win, throwing for 322 yards and two touchdowns. He also added a rushing touchdown and was able to make big plays when his team needed them most. Wilson has been one of the best quarterbacks in the league this season and is proving why he should be in the MVP conversation.
2. The Defense Stepped Up: The Seahawks defense had a great game against the Panthers, holding them to just 27 points. They were able to get pressure on Panthers quarterback Teddy Bridgewater and force him into some bad throws. They also had two interceptions, one of which was returned for a touchdown.
3. The Seahawks are Contenders: With the win, the Seahawks improved to 3-0 and are now firmly in the conversation as one of the top teams in the NFC. They have a great offense led by Wilson and a defense that is playing at a high level. If they can continue to play at this level, they could be a serious contender for the Super Bowl this season.
