Good morning, 12s. Here's a look at what's happening today – Monday, Sept. 28 – for your Seattle Seahawks after improving to 3-0 on Sunday.
What's Being Said: Seahawks 38, Cowboys 31
The Seahawks moved to 3-0 on the young season after a back-and-forth battle with the Dallas Cowboys. Russell Wilson was excellent yet again, completing 27 of 40 passes for 315 yards and five touchdowns. With all those completions, yards and touchdowns, Wilson's weapons feasted. Tyler Lockett led the way with nine receptions for 100 yards and three touchdowns. DK Metcalf added four catches for 110 yards and the go-ahead touchdown with under two minutes to play. On the game's final drive, Ryan Neal sealed the win with an interception in the final seconds.
