NFL players react to Seahawks’ near-comeback vs. Panthers

Even NFL players were shocked as the Seahawks charged back against the Panthers in Sunday’s divisional round matchup.

The Panthers led 31–0 at halftime, but failed to score in the second half, allowing the Seahawks to creep back into the game. Russell Wilson threw for three touchdowns in what was ultimately a losing effort.

NFL players, along with North Carolina native Stephen Curry, reacted as Seattle closed the gap.
