Detroit Lions lose to Seattle Seahawks in OT: How it happened



IMG


On Sunday, September 17th, 2023, the Seattle Seahawks faced off against the Detroit Lions in a highly anticipated match-up. The Lions, who entered the game with a record of one win and one loss, were looking to get back on the winning track. The Seahawks, who entered the game with a record of two wins and zero losses, were looking to maintain their undefeated record.



The game was a back-and-forth affair throughout the four quarters of regulation. In the first quarter, the Lions jumped out to an early lead, getting on the board with a touchdown to take a 7-0 lead. The Seahawks answered back with a field goal before the end of the first half to make the score 7-3.



The second half saw the Seahawks take control of the game, outscoring the Lions 17-7 in both the third and fourth quarters to take the game into overtime. In overtime, the Seahawks put a stamp on their dominance in the game, scoring a touchdown to take the lead and win the game.



While the Seahawks won the game, the Detroit Lions played hard and gave a good account of themselves. The Lions were able to move the ball effectively between the 20s, but continued to struggle in the redzone, where they scored just 1 touchdown throughout the game. This ultimately cost them the game as they were unable to find the endzone in overtime, leaving the final score at 20-17 in favor of the Seahawks.



The Detroit Lions will look to rebound from this loss next week, when they face off against the Washington Football Team at home.
