Seahawks keep playoff hopes alive with win, eliminate Jets

Associated Press  

SEATTLE — Geno Smith finished off a very personal sweep. Smith threw two first-half touchdowns, Kenneth Walker III rushed for 133 yards and the Seahawks kept alive their postseason hopes with a 23-6 win Sunday that eliminated the New York Jets from playoff contention. “You know it’s fun to be in that position and and the guys held on great.” Smith also hit big throws of 29 yards to Noah Fant and a 41-yard catch-and-run to DeeJay Dallas where Smith backhanded the pass scrambling away from pressure. Walker had the second-best game of his rookie season, including a 60-yard run on the first play of the game, and Seattle’s 198 yards rushing was third-most this season. He also threw two interceptions, including a careless throw on New York’s first possession that was picked off by Seattle safety Quandre Diggs.
