7:19 This game has gotten crazy. The Vikings drove down the field and just scored another touchdown, this time on a sweet catch by Kyle Rudolph. But Dan Bailey misses the extra point.
9:40 The Vikings get the ball back. Huge play by Xavier Rhodes to force a fumble from DK Metcalf. Play was initially ruled incomplete, but Zimmer challenged and won.
11:18 The Seahawks pick up a first down on a fake punt, just when it seemed the Vikings were going to get the ball back. A back-breaker.

12:49 Laquon Treadwell just scored a touchdown on blown coverage. Probably not gonna matter much, but it at least makes things slightly more interesting.
Seahawks 34, Vikings 17

Third Quarter

5:49 The Seahawks capitalize on the turnover and take the lead with a field goal.

9:06 Rashaad Penny gets the second rushing touchdown of the day for the Seahawks. A dumb late hit penalty by Xavier Rhodes and a big run by Carson set it up.
13:32 Vikings go three and out to start the second half. Cousins pressured on third and long, and Josh Kline gets beat. Initially ruled a fumble that the Vikings recovered, but overturned to an incomplete pass (which saves a lot of field position).

First Quarter
