Mike Macdonald's debut as head coach of the Seattle Seahawks was a successful one, with the team defeating the Denver Broncos 26-20. The victory showcased the defensive strength Seattle had been touted for, forcing three turnovers and showing flashes of potential on offense.

While the Seahawks faced challenges, including injuries and an inconsistent offensive line, they remained resilient. Standout performances by players like Kenneth Walker III and Tyler Lockett highlighted their skill.
