The Seattle Seahawks dismantled the Atlanta Falcons with a commanding 34-14 victory, highlighting a strong comeback from a previous three-game losing streak. Kenneth Walker III took center stage on his birthday, delivering both on the ground and through the air, securing two touchdowns that were pivotal for Seattle's offensive dynamics. The Seahawks' efficiency was evident, capitalizing on Atlanta's errors, with Geno Smith orchestrating decisive plays, including a second-quarter touchdown pass to DK Metcalf, who left the game later due to injury.
Seattle's defense asserted dominance, notably through Derick Hall's 64-yard fumble return for a touchdown, effectively derailing Atlanta's momentum. Despite a valiant effort by Bijan Robinson, who managed over 100 yards on the ground, the Falcons fell victim to critical turnovers and lackluster execution in key moments. The Seahawks' secondary, despite missing several starters, stepped up and contributed to limiting Kirk Cousins to modest gains, forcing multiple turnovers. As they look ahead, the Falcons have pressing concerns about consistency and infer weaknesses that need addressing before facing the Buccaneers next week.
