Seattle secured a 13-10 win over New England on opening night, with Drew Lock engineering a fourth‑quarter comeback that tipped the balance. Drake Maye’s three interceptions in the final period contributed to the narrow defeat, leaving both teams to reassess their strategies after the season’s first clash in the league.
Fox News highlighted Maye’s decisions as a turning point, while CBS Sports detailed Lock’s rally that secured the victory. Analysts will watch how Seattle builds on the win and whether New England can replace Darnold and stabilize its passing game before the next week’s matchup.
