The Seahawks earned themselves some breathing room with a much-needed win over the Packers. And they did it by locking down on that fourth quarter finish, and riding their run game to victory.
In the midst of a season of thwarted miracles, of failed comebacks, of end-of-game agony, the Seahawks finally remastered the fourth quarter on Thursday night.
And saved their season in the process.
On a night when a loss would have been terminal to Seattle’s playoff hopes — or at least dealt it a near-death blow — the Seahawks got their mojo back in a 27-24 win over the Green Bay Packers at CenturyLink Field.
