A blistering performance on Monday Night Football got Seattle’s rookie noticed big time.
Everybody knows the Seattle Seahawks passed on Jalen Carter, who became the favorite to win Rookie of the Year after the first game.
But the guy they chose instead just made a herculean leap up to become neck-and-neck with Carter in the odds to win ROY.
Devon Witherspoon’s hitherto unprecedented defensive performance skyrocketed him up to the second most...

Giants fans have a Monday night meltdown thanks to the dominant win by the Seahawks!
The Seattle Seahawks thoroughly humiliated the New York Giants with a level of defense we’ve not seen a whole lot of against any team over the past several seasons. On a night when almost the entire offensive line was hurt and Geno Smith even got dinged up, the Seahawks defense even outscored the Giants on their way to a 24-3 victory at MetLife Stadium. Even if the...
A collection of FTR thoughts that weren’t turned into their own articles ...
What. A. Game.
I mean, ignoring the Seattle Seahawks’ injuries (yuck!), and looking past the fact that the league’s 4th-most efficient offense never really looked like they were in sync.
Oh boy, that defense though.
Let’s start there . . .

Pete Carroll was pretty upset with the play.
Backup quarterback Drew Lock joined the festivities on Monday Night, leading a touchdown drive over the New York Giants while Geno Smith sat out the final minutes of the first half.
Turns out, the Seattle Seahawks weren’t all that far from needing Lock to finish the entire game.
The tackle that knocked Smith out, about halfway through the second quarter, took him out of bounds and did some damage to...
The Seattle Seahawks had 11 sacks on "Monday Night Football" ... and Armstead wondered why he didn't let the San Francisco 49ers do that.

A shot at redemption for Field Gulls readers whose entry in the original survivor pool failed to make it to the quarter way mark of the season.
The calendar has flipped to October and the 2023 NFL season is well underway. The Seattle Seahawks started the season with a dud of a performance against the division rival Los Angeles Rams, but righted the ship afterwards and are well positioned to compete for a playoff spot in the weak NFC. The bevy of early season...
Troy Aikman knows plenty about taking a beating on an NFL field, but the Hall of Fame quarterback said he has never experienced anything like what the New York Giants put Daniel Jones through on Monday night.
Geno Smith and the Seattle Seahawks defeated the New York Giants on Monday night. There was a scary moment when Smith went down with an injury after a tackle by Isaiah Simmons.
Geno Smith suffered a knee injury during the Seattle Seahawks’ win over the New York Giants on Monday night, and he felt it could have been avoided if not for a dirty play.
Seattle Seahawks player Jamal Adams got injured during the team’s 24-3 win against the New York Giants. He suffered a concussion in the first part of the game, which made him leave the field early.

The big storyline was supposed to be jamal Adams returning to play in New York, but it was Devon Witherspoon bringing the energy on Monday Night Football.
The Seattle Seahawks handily defeated the New York Giants on Monday Night Football from MetLife Stadium, with a slow start by the Hawks giving way to a defensive performance for the ages while the offensive line did just enough to Geno Smith and Drew Lock protected.
The Hawks came out of the game...

Folks, our Seattle Seahawks got it done last night. Sometimes sloppy, sometimes goofy, sometimes downright mean, the ‘Hawks found a way to dominate the New York Football Giants and their limited approach. Once the game really got going, which maybe wasn’t until the 2nd half, the Seahawks found their rhythm on both sides of the ball. This team still has a lot to work on in terms of 3rd-down efficiency and cleaning up a few things here and there...
Geno Smith and the Seahawks smashed the Giants, Monday, but the Seattle quarterback still was steaming at a tackle made early in the first half. So Isaiah Simmons, you’re on Smith’s list.
