Seahawks Rally Past Jets in Chaotic 26-21 Victory
Seattle overcame early special teams blunders and a 14-point deficit to claim sole possession of first place in the NFC West.
- Leonard Williams delivered a historic performance with a 92-yard pick-six, two sacks, three tackles for loss, and a blocked extra point, becoming the first player since 1982 to achieve such a stat line in a single game.
- Seattle's Zach Charbonnet scored the game-winning touchdown on an 8-yard run late in the fourth quarter, capping a nine-play, 71-yard drive aided by critical Jets penalties.
- The Seahawks' special teams struggled significantly, losing two fumbles on kickoffs and allowing a 99-yard kickoff return for a touchdown in the first half.
- Geno Smith, facing his former team, led his third game-winning drive of the season, completing 20 of 31 passes for 206 yards and a touchdown without any interceptions.
- The victory marks Seattle's third consecutive win, putting them at 7-5 and maintaining a one-game lead in the NFC West with a matchup against the Cardinals next week.
