Dark Side defense lifts Seahawks to season-opening win
Seattle's 'Dark Side' defense carried the day in a 13-10 season-opening win over the Patriots, forcing three fourth-quarter interceptions and three sacks to erase a 10-point deficit. Backup Drew Lock connected on a 45-yard TD to Jaxon Smith-Njigba and later led the go-ahead drive, while Josh Jobe sealed the victory with a late interception as Sam Darnold left with a hip injury. Seattle committed penalties but did not turn the ball over; Darnold's status is uncertain and the Seahawks head to Arizona for Week 2 to start 2-0 consideration.
