Seahawks Game-Changing Plays: Seattle’s perfect game-winning drive
Oct 31, 2022, 5:22 PM
The Seahawks got to 5-3 on the year and remain in first place in the NFC West after beating the New York Giants 27-13 in Week 8 at Lumen Field.
Huard: The Seahawks’ defense is now as aggressive as advertised
Despite the two-score victory, the game was very close throughout. In fact, the game was tied 13-13 in the fourth quarter before the Seahawks score the go-ahead touchdown with just over nine minutes to go.
That drive saw Seattle go 75 yards down the field in just five plays, all of which were passes by Geno Smith and all of which were completed. The end result was a 33-yard touchdown pass to receiver Tyler Lockett, who clutched up after a big drop on a would-be touchdown earlier in the game as well as a costly fumble that resulted in the Giants’ lone touchdown of the day.
