Seattle Seahawks defeat New England Patriots in NFL season opener

The Seattle Seahawks defeated the New England Patriots 13-10 in the NFL season opener on Wednesday night. Seattle starting quarterback Sam Darnold exited the game in the first quarter due to an injury, allowing backup Drew Lock to lead the offense. Lock finished 16-of-22 for 187 yards and a touchdown. New England struggled offensively as quarterback Drake Maye completed 23-of-33 passes for 178 yards, one touchdown, and three interceptions. The Patriots' offensive performance prompted significant criticism following a loss where three consecutive fourth-quarter possessions ended in turnovers by Maye. The team also faced a setback with an ankle injury to A.J. Brown during the contest.
