Question: Will the Seahawks and Patriots meet in the title game? False.



Rainn Wilson aka Dwight K. Schrute from "The Office" took to Twitter on Saturday hoping for a New England-Seattle matchup in the Super Bowl.



When the Carolina Panthers -- who are pretty good at this trolling stuff -- defeated the Seahawks on Sunday afternoon, they didn't let him forget it:






Seattle might not be going to the NFC Championship Game, but if Carolina needs some help with its run game next week, we hear Dwight is pretty quick.



"I am fast. To give you a reference point I am somewhere between a snake and a mongoose ... and a panther," as he said on the show.
