'Hawk City': Seahawks lead NFL trolls after virtual jabs aimed at Panthers
"The Seattle Seahawks are winners of six straight after beating the Carolina Panthers 27-10. Seattle allowed just 139 total yards and forced two turnovers in a dominant defensive display. The Seahawks' 13th win of the season ties a franchise record -- their two previous seasons with as many victories resulted in a Super Bowl appearance. Just like previous weeks, Seattle didn't hold back in trolling its opponent after a win."
"First, the Seahawks referenced the Panthers "Keep Pounding" motto before posting a graphic of a seahawk flying over Bank of America Stadium with a panther in a litter box. Seattle then shared a comic inspired by the 2008 film "Speed Racer" with Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold beating Panthers quarterback Bryce Young in a race. The Seahawks then turned "Queen City," a nickname for Charlotte, into "Hawk City.""

Seattle amplified the victory by trolling Carolina on social media, referencing the Panthers' "Keep Pounding" motto with a graphic, sharing a Speed Racer–inspired comic pitting Sam Darnold against Bryce Young, and rebranding Charlotte's "Queen City" as "Hawk City." The Browns' 13-6 win over Pittsburgh altered the AFC North scenario, setting up a winner-take-all with Baltimore.
