Seattle’s defense started the preseason on sloppy footing. Their first drive against Pittsburgh went about as poorly as it gets, with missed tackles and a blown coverage leading to a touchdown. The Seahawks got their first flash of hope on the third drive of the game for their defense.
Watch rookie outside linebacker Boye Mafe get to QB Mason Rudolph for a strip sack.

Unfortunately, Pittsburgh recovered and Rudolph threw a touchdown a few plays later. The Steelers lead the Seahawks 14-0 late in the first quarter.
