The Seahawks offense only had the football for 24:38 of this football game and that was a huge reason for this loss.  Matt Hasselbeck had a decent game as he completed 27 of 41 passes for 274 yards with 1 TD pass.  But, the Seahawks couldn’t run the football yesterday as Shaun Alexander (7 car, 17 yards) and Maurice Morris (4 car, 15 yards) had a hard time finding running room.  Bobby Engram (9 rec, 84 yards) and Deion Branch (8 rec, 79 yards, TD) led the way in the passing game for the Seahawks.  The Seahawks finished up with 44 yards rushing on 14 carries (3.1 ypc)  and they also completed 27 of 41 passes for 238 yards.

The defense was led by Marcus Trufant (9 tackles) and Patrick Kerney (8 tackles) yesterday.  The Panthers finished up with 114 yards rushing on 38 carries (3.0 ypc) and they also completed 19 of 27 passes for 208 yards.
