The Saints put up a valiant effort in the first half themselves, with a strong showing from running back Alvin Kamara and utility quarterback Taysom Hill, who has two touchdowns.
Hill’s second score of the game to put the Saints up 17-10 came following a disastrous fake punt from Michael Dickson.

However, the Seahawks wouldn’t go into the half quietly. With New Orleans driving for some potential points before intermission, Kamara fumbled the ball which was recovered by Tariq Woolen.
Seattle quickly took advantage of New Orleans’ mistakes and cashed it in for a touchdown. Geno Smith found Tyler Lockett for a 35-yard strike, his first score of the season.
Lockett Rocket's first TD this season! 🚀
