Death, taxes, and the Seattle Seahawks raising the collective heart rate of the Pacific Northwest. Once again, the Seahawks thrilled the 12th Man with an exhausting, yet exciting game under the lights of prime time. Seattle has seemingly never played a normal game, and that trend continued on Wednesday night as the Seahawks survived an upset bid with backup quarterback Drew Lock filling in for the injured Sam Darnold.
Seattle ultimately won thanks to a clutch interception in the end zone from corner Josh Jobe. Pressured by DeMarcus Lawrence, Patriots quarterback Drake Maye made an all-time boneheaded decision and lobbed a turkey sandwich into the end zone, where it was picked off by Jobe. The Seahawks, facing the seeming inevitability of a tie
to force overtime, managed to secure the hard-earned defensive victory to start the year 1-0.

For the 12's, this was simply par for the course. Bizarre, stressful games are what we've come to expect from this team. It's in their DNA. But for the team's new owners, this was a perfect first taste of what it's like to watch Seahawks football. Vinod Khosla took to Twitter to share his excitement from the first victory in his family's ownership era, and describing the win as a "roller coaster" sums it up perfectly.

Vinod Khosla, his wife Neeru and son Neal are going to have to get familiar with their cardiologists, because this is simply how Seahawks games go!
After the game, head coach Mike Macdonald presented the Khosla family with the game ball. Quite the start to their tenure as owners of the franchise.
