In a dominant display to kick off the 2028 season, the Seattle Seahawks toppled the New York Jets with a commanding 45-10 victory. The stakes were high as both teams aimed to establish early momentum, but Seattle's comprehensive performance set the tone for what promises to be an exciting season. Jalen Milroe led the Seahawks' offensive charge, throwing for two touchdowns and showcasing his ability to make big plays. Meanwhile, Jacory Croskey-Merritt made a significant impact on the ground with 132 rushing yards, consistently breaking tackles to gain crucial yardage. The Jets struggled to contain Seattle's offensive firepower, with Drew Mestemaker managing only 134 passing yards, unable to match the explosive output of his counterpart. Defensively, the Seahawks were relentless, highlighted by Trent McDuffie's two interceptions that stifled any potential Jets comeback attempts. Kenyatta Jackson Jr. added to the pressure with a sack that disrupted the flow of New York's offense. The turning point came early in the second half when McDuffie's second pick led to a quick Seattle touchdown, effectively sealing the game and demonstrating the Seahawks' dominance on both sides of the ball.
