Darnold Perfect Early as Seahawks Rout Commanders 38-14 to Reach 6-2

Coaches pointed to a tailored plan that reflects growing cohesion heading into Arizona.

Overview

  • Sam Darnold completed his first 16 passes for 282 yards and four touchdowns, finishing 21-of-24 for 330 yards as Seattle beat Washington 38-14.
  • His completion streak reached 17 before ending in the second half, and he said he was "feeling the flow" without realizing he was perfect at halftime.
  • Head coach Mike Macdonald said he was not surprised by Darnold’s execution and credited offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak for the game plan.
  • Seattle produced 418 total yards and converted 7 of 11 third downs for its second-highest scoring output of the season, marking six wins in the last seven games.
  • With Cooper Kupp unavailable, depth pieces stepped in as Tory Horton scored, Cody White recorded his first NFL touchdown, and Elijah Arroyo contributed, with Arizona up next on Sunday.
