Updated (4 articles)

Myers Provides All Scoring in Seahawks Victory Jason Myers kicked six field goals, a franchise record, accounting for every Seattle point in an 18‑16 win over Indianapolis [1][2]. His final 56‑yard attempt with 29 seconds left sealed the game, as the Seahawks finished without a touchdown for the first time since December 2024 [1][2]. The scoring breakdown included kicks from 47, 52, 46, 32 and 30 yards before the decisive long try [2].

Colts Rely on Returning Veteran Philip Rivers The Colts started 44‑year‑old Philip Rivers, who returned after a five‑year hiatus, throwing for 120 yards and his first touchdown pass in nearly five years to Josh Downs [1][2]. Rivers was sacked once and hit four times, and his final pass to Coby Bryant fell incomplete, ending a potential comeback [1][2]. His early TD gave Indianapolis a 13‑3 lead before Seattle rallied [2].

Seattle’s Offense Struggles Early, Finds Rhythm Late Seattle entered the game with just 80 total yards before halftime and managed only three rushing yards on nine carries in the first half [1]. Quarterback Sam Darnold later completed 22 of 36 passes for 271 yards, engineering the go‑ahead drive that set up Myers’ game‑winner [2]. Wide receiver Jaxon Smith‑Njigba contributed seven catches for 113 yards, including a pivotal 39‑yard reception that helped position the fifth field goal [2].

Injuries and Upcoming Division Battle Highlight Stakes Colts tackle Bernhard Raimann left with an elbow injury, while Seattle’s Derick Hall and Abe Lucas sustained injuries but returned later in the contest [2]. The victory positions the Seahawks to face the Los Angeles Rams on Thursday Night Football, with the winner claiming sole possession of first place in the NFC West [1].
