Tim Weaver has been writing about the NFL since the 2013 season for multiple teams and outlets, including USA Today and The Sporting News. He currently covers the Seattle Seahawks and Carolina Panthers for On SI.

Dec 28, 2025; Charlotte, North Carolina, USA; Carolina Panthers linebacker D.J. Wonnum (98) sacks Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold (14) during the fourth quarter at Bank of America Stadium.

Dec 28, 2025; Charlotte, North Carolina, USA; Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet (26) scores a two-yard rushing touchdown against the Carolina Panthers during the fourth quarter at Bank of America Stadium.

Nov 3, 2024; Seattle, Washington, USA; Seattle Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald interacts with a referee during the second half against the Los Angeles Rams at Lumen Field.

Dec 28, 2025; Charlotte, North Carolina, USA; Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet (26) runs the ball against Carolina Panthers cornerback Chau Smith-Wade (26) (obscured) during the first quarter at Bank of America Stadium.

Dec 28, 2025; Charlotte, North Carolina, USA; Carolina Panthers safety Tre'von Moehrig (7) sacks Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold (14) for a ten-yard loss during the first quarter at Bank of America Stadium.

Seattle's offense is once again sputtering in the first half.

Sep 24, 2023; Seattle, Washington, USA; Seattle Seahawks defensive tackle Jarran Reed (90) assists cornerback Artie Burns (23) on a tackle of Carolina Panthers wide receiver Terrace Marshall Jr. (88) during the fourth quarter at Lumen Field.

Carolina may seem like a pushover to a Super Bowl contender like Seattle, but therein lies the danger ahead of the ultimate trap game.

Dec 18, 2025; Seattle, Washington, USA; Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba (11) runs for a touchdown against the Los Angeles Rams in overtime at Lumen Field.

The Seattle Seahawks' breakout superstar is determined to let you know that you don't even know.

Dec 7, 2025; Atlanta, Georgia, USA; Seattle Seahawks defensive tackle Byron Murphy II (91) talks to Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson (7) after a game at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

Murphy was overlooked during is rookie season - and continues to get underrated even in the midst of a monster breakout year.

Dec 18, 2025; Seattle, Washington, USA; Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold (14) runs against the Los Angeles Rams in the first half at Lumen Field.

Darnold led Seattle to one of the greatest wins in franchise history, but it didn't earn him a bump in CBS Sports' rankings.

Dec 21, 2025; Charlotte, North Carolina, USA; Carolina Panthers cornerback Mike Jackson (2) talks to an assistant coach in the second quarter at Bank of America Stadium.

Mike Jackson was a borderline starter for Seattle, but in Carolina he's turned into a full-time Robin to Jaycee Horn's Batman.

Dec 18, 2025; Seattle, Washington, USA; Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold (14) and quarterback Jalen Milroe (6) celebrate after defeating the Los Angeles Rams in overtime at Lumen Field.

The idea that Darnold cannot win big games has gone the way of the Dodo bird.

Dec 18, 2025; Seattle, Washington, USA; Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (9) reacts after a first down against the Los Angeles Rams in the first half at Lumen Field.

Seattle's star running back was insanely explosive against the Rams. Why isn't Klint Kubiak dialing up No. 9 more often?

Dec 18, 2025; Seattle, Washington, USA; Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Rashid Shaheed (22) celebrates after defeating the Los Angeles Rams in overtime at Lumen Field.

Move over Micah Parsons, the Seahawks may have made the league's most important trade of the entire season.

Dec 18, 2025; Seattle, Washington, USA; Seattle Seahawks head coach Mike MacDonald embraces quarterback Sam Darnold (14) after defeating the Los Angeles Rams in overtime at Lumen Field.

Sam Darnold busted the narrative that he can't win a big game - but Macdonal says he had already done that multiple times this season.

Dec 18, 2025; Seattle, Washington, USA; Seattle Seahawks safety Coby Bryant (8) tackles Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Jordan Whittington (88) in the first half at Lumen Field.

Riq Woolen's knee injury is not considered serious, but Coby Bryant is expected to miss some time with his.

Dec 18, 2025; Seattle, Washington, USA; Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (9) celebrates after scoring a touchdown against the Los Angeles Rams in the second half at Lumen Field.

Seattle got great performances from their running backs and their defensive line, but a couple of other position groups did not fare nearly as well.
