Seahawks hold off Vikings on Monday Night Football, take over first place in NFC West

It wouldn’t be the 2019 Seahawks if it came easy. So why should the win that got them into first place be any different?

Seemingly on the verge of a blowout with a 17-point fourth-quarter lead, Seattle allowed the Vikings not only back in the game but gave them a chance to win it.

But as they have so often done this season, the Seahawks made the plays at the end to hold on.

With the Vikings getting the ball back and a chance to take the lead, Seattle got the defensive stop it needed and then a first down and field goal that ran out the clock, all resulting in an ultimately celebratory 37-30 win over Minnesota.
