Lifeless for three-plus quarters, the Seahawks came back to force overtime before Sam Darnold’s second interception sealed their second straight loss .
After barely showing signs of life, the Seattle offense finally found the end zone and added a two-point conversion to trim their deficit to 14-11 with less than six minutes remaining. After a big defensive stop, Darnold threw an incredibly ill-timed interception in Broncos territory with 1:25 left.
And yet, the Seahawks tied this game up at 14-14 thanks to a 34-yard field goal from Jason Myers with 3 seconds left.
It was a rough three quarters and change, though. The Seahawks’ first possession of the second half ended with a missed 47-yard field goal attempt off the uprights. The defense forced three punts of the Broncos in the third quarter, but the offense was not taking advantage.
