Broncos beat Superbowl champions Seahawks in overtime
A Wil Lutz 53-yard game-winning field goal sees the Denver Broncos beat defending champions Seattle Seahawks 17-14 in overtime in the NFL.
After a 17-14 overtime loss to the Denver Broncos, Seattle Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald addressed the team's biggest concern. Macdonald expressed conflicting emotions, emphasizing that there are no moral victories in the league. He was proud of the team's effort and resolve, particularly in the second half, where they held the Broncos to 30 net yards and forced a punt on every possession.
However, Macdonald's main worry centered on ball security. He pointed out that the offense struggled with ball security, with quarterback Sam Darnold completing 27 of 51 passes for 278 yards and the Broncos pressuring him on 24 dropbacks, resulting in five sacks. Macdonald identified a specific coverage window where Darnold threw an interception during overtime, a throw he believed was targeted.
He stressed the importance of taking care of the ball and assured Darnold that he understood the need for caution. The Seahawks will face the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday Night Football on October 25.
