SEATTLE — A day that began as promisingly as could be — an interception on the first play and a touchdown two plays later to give Seattle a lead just 28 seconds in — ended as disastrously as possible.
And when Josh Jacobs rushed 86 yards for a touchdown to give the Raiders a stunning 40-34 overtime win at Lumen Field Sunday, it threatened to throw a promising Seahawks season into turmoil.
With the loss, Seattle fell to 6-5, and if the season ended today, out of the playoffs in the NFC. While Seattle was losing, the 49ers won their fourth straight to improve to 7-4 and take control of the NFC West.
