The Seattle Seahawks delivered a clutch 13-10 season-opening victory against the New England Patriots last night, and you know what the best part is? Drew Lock was our quarterback for that win! It was wild to see our Hawks get that W right out of the gate, kicking off the NFL season with a bang.
Lock Showed Up When It Mattered
Man, what a way to kick off the entire NFL season! Our defense, true to form, held the New England Patriots to a measly 10 points. That 13-10 final score tells you everything you need to know about the grit and grind this team has. And who was under center, leading the charge? None other than Drew Lock! He stepped into that starting role for the season opener and delivered the W for the Emerald City. You gotta feel the buzz around town. We got the win, period, and that’s a massive statement in Week 1. While the “experts” like Nate Tice and Matt Harmon might be asking if we should be concerned about the Pats offense, I’m more concerned about how excited the 12s are right now! This team came out swinging, and they got the result.
Beyond Our Battle: Early Season League Watch
While our hearts were pounding watching our Hawks secure that vital victory, the rest of the league was also kicking into high gear for Week 1. Nate Tice and Matt Harmon over at Football 301 were busy breaking down some other intense matchups across the NFL. We’re talking about hoss fights like the Buffalo Bills taking on the Houston Texans, and big divisional clashes like the Tampa Bay Buccaneers going head-to-head with the Cincinnati Bengals. Not to mention the Green Bay Packers battling it out with the Minnesota Vikings. They even gave quick glances at the Denver Broncos facing the Kansas City Chiefs and the Baltimore Ravens squaring off with the Indianapolis Colts. These guys are already throwing out their “Hail Mary bold predictions” for how the season is gonna play out, but let’s be real: for us, the biggest, boldest prediction already came true last night with our Hawks starting 1-0! It’s an early look at what the league has to offer, but nothing feels better than seeing our team on the winning side of things right now.
This isn’t just a win, Seattle. It’s a Week 1 statement. Getting this kind of hard-fought victory with Drew Lock at the helm sets a serious, serious tone for the whole season. This is exactly the kind of gritty, never-say-die start that fires up the 12s and tells everyone else that our Hawks are coming to play. We’re on the board, we’ve got momentum, and the entire league just saw that our Seahawks mean business in 2026. The season is just beginning, and if this is how we’re starting, then get ready for a wild ride, Emerald City! Let’s keep that energy going!
