Now, Smith and the Seahawks are 7-5 through 13 weeks, placing them atop the NFC West standings. At this time of year, every game matters more than the last, so the Seahawks offense will have to continue producing positive performances to return to the playoffs.

The Jets defense did their part for most of the day as they watched the offense fail to put up points after the first quarter. Williams had two tackles for loss, a forced fumble, and a fourth-down sack on Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith.

Big plays have been signature feats recently, too. Per the Elias Sports Bureau, the last time the Seahawks had interceptions returned for touchdowns in consecutive games was Dec. 9 and 16 of 2012. Richard Sherman and Earl Thomas were the highlighted names then, and Coby Bryant and Williams are the featured defensive stars of the last two weeks.
