Seattle handily defeated Indianapolis by a score of 28-16 on Sunday, which makes it seem like the game was much closer than it actually was. The team got an excellent performance from quarterback Russell Wilson and his top passing weapons in a brilliant debut for new offensive coordinator Shane Waldron. The Seahawks defensive line also had a superb second half, quickly stomping out any hope of a comeback for Carson Wentz and the Colts.
