Seattle accumulated 133 total yards in the first quarter and 173 in the remaining three quarters. Instead of aggressively pushing the ball down the field with a running play or a play-action pass, Kubiak used trickery, which led to wide receiver Cooper Kupp throwing an interception.

The Seattle Seahawks defeated the Houston Texans 27-19 on Monday Night Football in Week 7. The offense started fast, scoring two touchdowns during the opening quarter to take a 14-0 lead, an advantage the Seahawks would never relinquish. Klint Kubiak's offense continued rolling.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba has his fifth 100-yard receiving game of the season and Seattle’s defense holds Houston to one offensive TD in a 27-19 win to keep pace with the Rams and 49ers at 5-2.

Despite beating the team with the best scoring defense in the league, ESPN dropped the Seahawks down one spot in their latest power rankings.

Wideout Nico Collins sustained a concussion with the team in comeback mode in the fourth quarter. Collins was injured while trying to make a contested catch on the sideline. As he was being knocked to the ground, Collins smacked his head off the turf.
