Carroll: After December drama, meeting “we’re in the right place right now”

The Seahawks view Doug Baldwin stealing from Jermaine Kearse as proof their locker-room harmony is exactly where it needs to be for a postseason run.

That view just about fits this often incongruous season.

OK, it wasn’t a crime. But Seattle’s No. 1 receiver was so hot late in Saturday night’s wild-card playoff victory over Detroit, he stole a touchdown pass from his teammate. Baldwin continued his shorter route deeper than quarterback Russell Wilson expected. He ran directly into the throw’s path intended for the more-open Kearse. Baldwin just snared the ball in the end zone a yard ahead of where the surprised Kearse was awaiting his score.
