First Quarter


The game kicked off with both teams displaying strong defensive plays. The Titans managed to hold off the Hawks' initial advances, but it was clear that Seattle's defense was equally formidable. Leonard Williams made his presence felt early on with a crucial sack, setting the tone for what would be a challenging day for Tennessee's offense.


Second Quarter


As the second quarter unfolded, Seattle began to find its rhythm. Jaxon Smith-Njigba emerged as a key player for the Hawks, catching an impressive pass from Sam Darnold that resulted in a spectacular 63-yard touchdown. This play not only electrified fans but also shifted momentum firmly in favor of Seattle. Darnold ended this period with two touchdowns and no interceptions, maintaining an impressive passer rating.


Third Quarter


In the third quarter, Kenneth Walker III showcased his rushing abilities by gaining significant yardage on multiple attempts. His efforts contributed to extending Seattle's lead as he consistently broke through Tennessee’s defensive line. Meanwhile, Zach Charbonnet added another dimension to Seattle’s ground game by scoring a rushing touchdown that further widened their advantage.


Fourth Quarter


The final quarter saw Tennessee attempting a comeback led by Will Levis’ determined passing efforts; however, they were met with stiff resistance from Seattle’s defense which recorded four sacks throughout the match—two of which came from Byron Murphy II and Derick Hall respectively—effectively stifling any potential rally from Two-Tone Blue.


Despite some late-game pressure from Tennessee resulting in additional points on their side of scoreboard courtesy Derrick Henry’s powerful runs into end zone—the Seahawks held firm until final whistle blew signaling victory secured at Nissan Stadium—a testament not only skillful execution but also strategic planning executed flawlessly across all quarters played today!
