The score is etched in our minds like a nightmare: Seahawks 14, Broncos 17. That final result against Denver delivered a gut punch that’s going to haunt the Emerald City for a long time. It’s mid-October, and while some folks are out picking pumpkins, here in Seattle, we’re just picking apart what went wrong.
The Haunting Reality of a Close Loss
Forget the spooky season fun; for Seahawks fans, the real fright came with that 14-17 loss to the Broncos. We’re sitting here in mid-October, and instead of debating which horror movie villain our favorite player would be, we’re wrestling with the chilling reality of a game we let slip away. While fans elsewhere, like those in Pittsburgh, might be celebrating Pat Freiermuth’s 1-yard touchdown from October 11th, our focus is squarely on our own gridiron woes. Every missed opportunity, every defensive lapse, it all adds up to a performance that leaves you shaking your head.
No Fall Fun When You’re Feeling This Down
It’s all about Halloween season right now, watching horror movies, and going to fall activities like farms, orchards, or pumpkin patches, right? You know what? When your team drops a game like that, none of that stuff feels quite right. The only “haunted house” experience we’re interested in is getting that losing feeling out of Lumen Field. We bleed green and blue, and right now, the only thing we’re seeing is red from that scoreboard. We just need to find a way to flip the script on this real-life horror show.
The season marches on, and as we look ahead past this unsettling loss, all we can do is hope for a stronger showing. For tonight, though, if you need some tunes to process it all, the “Song of the Night” is “Red Moon” by Big Thief.
