The Seahawks had been doubted all week leading up to their season opening game against former Seattle quarterback Russell Wilson and the Broncos and on Monday night.
But when the final whistle was blown, it was Seattle that walked away with a dramatic 17–16 win against the Denver.
Seahawks coach Pete Carroll knows the tendencies of his former quarterback better than anyone. Wilson thrives on getting out of the pocket and using his legs to extend plays and make throws down the field. The nine-time Pro Bowler put together a solid stat line of 340 yards off 29-of-42 passes in his Broncos’ debut, but only led his team to that one touchdown in the game.
