Russell Wilson, Tyler Lockett saw their game-changing play coming

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Russell Wilson dropped back, slid to his left to buy time and threw deep down the right side of the field to Tyler Lockett, who had gotten open behind the defense.

Just like the Seattle Seahawks drew it up?

Not exactly.

But the 43-yard Wilson-to-Baldwin hookup that set up their game-winning field goal Sunday against the Carolina Panthers didn't come entirely out of nowhere. It was during a walk-through earlier in the week that Lockett went off-script in a similar way, a moment Wilson revealed after the Seahawks' 30-27 victory.
