Completing 80 percent of his passes before the break, Geno Smith threw for 149 yards, throwing for over 100 yards to Bobo and Smith-Njigba. Ken Walker III paced the running game with 61 yards on 10 carries, while Tyler Lockett made three first down converting receptions in the half.1. DK Who?

Building off an excellent performance in Cincinnati a week ago, Seattle came out rolling on defense, forcing three punts on consecutive possessions to open the game. Allowing just a single first down on those drives, Arizona was limited to 16 net yards with the run game unable to get untracked and Joshua Dobbs uncorking several ugly ducks from the pocket.
