Geno Smith delivers in the fourth quarter, Tyler Lockett rebounds from errors for big TD, Bruce Irvin is back and still a factor, and the defense looks formidable again. Takeaways from Seahawks 27-13 win over Giants: FOX13
It's not just that the Seahawks beat the Giants, it's the way in which they did it. They held Saquon Barkley to just 53 yards on 20 carries – an average of 2.7 yards per carry – for a team that entered the week as the second best rushing team in the NFL. Just three weeks ago, the Seahawks had allowed 235 yards rushing and a pair of 100-yard rushers to the New Orleans Saints in Alvin Kamara and Taysom Hill.
In relief of Wilson last season against the Rams, Seattle trailed 23-17 with 2:09 left and the offense with the ball. Smith was picked off as Lockett was tripped up to seal a loss. "He's the real deal," Carroll said. "There's no mystery or 'oh, he's going to run out of gas.' It's not like that. He knows exactly what he's doing and he shows you week in and week out throw after throw after throw. There's nothing for us to hold him in but in the highest of expectations. Really. What a thrilling story for the kid, you know. He just hung in there so tough and outlasted it and now he's enjoying all the fun of it. He did great.
Lockett had a fumble inside Seattle's own 5-yard line that quickly turned into the only touchdown of the first half for New York. Then in the third quarter, Lockett dropped a would-be 33-yard touchdown pass from Smith when the ball clanked off his facemask and incomplete. But Lockett answered back on Seattle's next offensive possession after the drop to put the Seahawks back on top. He picked up a 12-yard reception as the Seahawks moved out near midfield. After a 13-yard pickup by DK Metcalf, Lockett roasted Jackson on a stop-and-go for a 33-yard touchdown.
Irvin has played in two games for Seattle since rejoining the team's practice squad. Irvin started the game for Seattle with fellow linebacker Darrell Taylor ailing with a hip/groin injury. He played a large chunk of Seattle's 64 defensive snaps in the game and would appear to be a lock to move up to the active roster when his three practice squad elevations run out.
