Packers-Seahawks: Green Bay dominates Seattle, who lost QB Geno Smith to knee injury

  • Packers: 30
  • Jordan Love: 20-27, 229 yards, 2 TDs
  • Josh Jacobs: 94 yards, 1 TD on 26 carries
  • Christian Watson: 56 yards on 3 catches
  • Seahawks: 13
  • Geno Smith: 15-19, 149 yards, 1 INT
  • Zach Charbonnet: 54 yards, 1 TD on 8 carries
  • Jaxon Smith-Njigba: 83 yards on 10 catches
  • And we’re done here. The Packers improve to 10-4 and are right in the mix in the NFC playoff race.
  • The Seahawks, on the other hand, are now 8-6 and could be without their starting quarterback during the final stretch of the season.
  • Josh Jacobs just tried to convert on fourth-and-2, but he gets stuffed at the line of scrimmage. Sam Howell will come back out for the Seahawks now to start their drive at their own 39.
  • They need to find the end zone here quick if they’re going to have any shot at winning this game.
  • The Packers lost the challenge, but the Seahawks can’t get anything going and will now punt it away. They nearly recovered the punt after the Packers muffed the return, but couldn’t quite come up with it.
  • So Jordan Love and the Packers will take over now with 9:32 left.
  • Sam Howell got his as he threw there on first down, and it looked like an incomplete pass. But the Packers are challenging that it was a forward pass at all. So, to the review we go.
  • There was so much pressure there on Jordan Love, and the Seahawks have forced another three-and-out. The momentum has completely shifted here even with Geno Smith sidelined.
  • Sam Howell is coming back out to lead Seattle starting at their own 32 yard line.
  • Zach Charbonnet breaks around the end and into the end zone to give the Seahawks their first touchdown of the night. It’s suddenly a 10-point game with 11:16 to go.
  • That’s three straight incomplete passes from Sam Howell, two of which could’ve been intercepted. They’ll have to punt again, this time from the back of their own end zone.
  • The Seahawks defense is holding strong. They forced a three-and-out, and will get the ball back now inside their own 5 yard line.
  • Well, that didn’t go well for Sam Howell. The Packers just sacked him twice, and the Seahawks will have to punt now to open the fourth quarter when we come back.
  • Golic said it perfectly…

oh this one is Genover.

  • The Packers made it down to the 5 yard line, but have to settle for a short field goal. Sam Howell will come back out now to lead
  • The Packers take a deep shot right away, and Josh Jobe gets called for a bad pass interference penalty. Green Bay is suddenly in scoring position here.
  • Sam Howell can’t get it done, and the Seahawks have to settle for a field goal. It’s better than nothing, but the Packers still lead 20-6 now with about 6 minutes left in the third quarter.
  • Still no word on Geno Smith’s leg injury.
  • The Packers just pressured Geno Smith, who threw it away successfully in teh backfield. He got hit in the ankles as he got rid of the ball, though, and was incredibly slow to get up.
  • Sam Howell is coming in now to replace him.
  • The Seahawks just forced the first Packers punt of the night. They’ll start now with great field position halfway through the third quarter. Points here are a must if they’re going to get back in this thing.
  • That was a great start to the third quarter for the Seahawks, but a pair of penalties pushed them back to a third-and-29. They’re going to have to punt now, and Green Bay will take over for the first time this half.
