A heartbreaker in every sense of the word has the Seahawks needing a win in the worst way.

The Hawks offense was often electric, scoring 34 points against the Raiders. The defense found itself fighting to regain its form giving up over 300 yards from scrimmage to Raiders running back Josh Jacobs. 86 of those yards came on a walk-off game-winning, whatever you wanna call it 86 yard touchdown run to end the game in overtime.

So how are the Hawks handling the loss? Here's what they had to say:

Head Coach Pete Carroll

"For us, we had our chances to win the football game. They were obvious, so clear. You all know them. To give them the opportunity to stay in there and hang in there, they've been hanging, they've been in close games all year long. Nothing different for them. They get the big play to win the thing, which isn't really the statement of the game. It's a good deal for them, for Josh. I'm going to go back to everything we look at this film, we're going to see the opportunities that got away from us that we just didn't take care of. We did some things in the game we wanted to on defense to try to slow down Davante and take him kind of real seriously. We gave up way too much in the running game. We did not play the run worth a darn in getting that done. We didn't rush the passer as well as we needed to either. That's just what happened in this game. I give them credit. They outplayed us and got their win. But it's really frustrating because the game was there to be won."

Quarterback Geno Smith

"We can't let it be a snowball effect. Reality is that we're going from the hunter to the hunted. People want to play us. As a young team, we've got to learn to be able to go out there and win those games. That's our next step in the evolution as a really young team. We got to understand the moment, capture the moments, take advantage. I feel like we had plenty of opportunities to go out there and win that game, finish it late, and we just didn't get it done. When I was in college, a coach told me about the difference between a finger pointer and a thumb pointer. I've always vowed to be a thumb pointer. I'm going to look at myself hard in the mirror, watch this film, see where I can get better and help this team win games."

Safety Quandre Diggs

“We have to fix it. Everybody’s going to expose it if we don’t fix it. We fixed it for a little bit. It showed its head today. At the end of the day, if we don’t stop the run, we’re not going to be able to do anything. It starts with everybody...."

“I mean I thought we fixed it. I just have to look at it. It’s not a lack of effort. I think we just have to figure it out again, and figure out that niche that we had for a while there, and get it fixed fast. Because teams are going to see that, and when they see that, you could have run the ball. We have to get those stops. I’m not down on anybody, I’m just saying we have to get those stops. We had some good stops today, and we just have to be more consistent with it.”
