Scoring Plays
11 scores Week 3: Seahawks Visit Commanders as Mariota Steps In for Daniels
Read the full recap →The Seattle Seahawks visit the Washington Commanders on Sunday, September 27. Seattle is 2-0 after a 31-7 win at Arizona in which Drew Lock threw three touchdown passes, all to Jaxon Smith-Njigba, and the defense held the Cardinals to 151 yards; Sam Darnold is scheduled to return to practice Wednesday and has a chance to start. Washington is 0-2 after a 37-20 loss at Dallas in which Jayden Daniels dislocated his left elbow on the last play of the first half; Marcus Mariota starts, and Daniels sees specialists this week. Wednesday update: Darnold practiced on a limited basis and is described as on a good track to start, with a decision by Friday.
Darnold or Lock
Mike Macdonald says Darnold plays if he can; Lock has four touchdowns and no turnovers with the fourth-best QBR in the league.
Washington after Daniels
Mariota went 11 of 16 in relief; the Commanders have allowed 61 points and rookie Athan Kaliakmanis is the only other quarterback.
Seattle's defense
Three interceptions of Drake Maye in Week 1, 151 yards allowed in Week 2.
Pregame AI Prediction
How the prediction did
Predicted 27-16 (Seahawks vs Commanders), final was 31-33. Miss at High confidence. Sam Darnold returned and threw for a career-high 379 yards and four touchdowns, and Seattle outgained Washington 437 to 258, but three turnovers, including Kain Medrano's 50-yard interception return in the fourth quarter, ended the Seahawks' 12-game winning streak. Marcus Mariota threw three touchdown passes without a turnover.
Seahawks Commanders The champions are healthier at the position that matters
Either Seattle quarterback has outplayed Mariota's résumé, and Smith-Njigba is the best receiver on the field.
Washington's defense has not held anyone
Twenty-four, then 37 points allowed; Seattle just scored 31 on the road.
Mariota's efficiency keeps it from being wider
He was 11 of 16 with a touchdown in relief, and Washington's run game with Jayden Daniels gone still has Jacory Croskey-Merritt.
A High-confidence road lean. Washington's best chance is a low-possession game and a turnover from a Seattle quarterback who may be returning from injury.
