In a nail-biting finish, Drew Lock delivered a critical 28-yard touchdown pass in the final 28 seconds, propelling the Seattle Seahawks to a thrilling 20-17 triumph over the Philadelphia Eagles, thereby keeping their playoff dreams within reach.
The 27-year-old quarterback, in a remarkable display, led the Seahawks on a 92-yard drive over 10 plays, culminating in a game-winning touchdown pass to Jaxon Smith-Njigba.
Filling in for the injured primary quarterback Geno Smith, Lock was making only his second start of the season. Speaking to ESPN, Lock described the win as more than just amazing.
The last-minute decision to play Lock came as Geno Smith, despite being listed as available, grappled with a groin injury. Since his transfer from the Denver Broncos in 2022, Lock’s appearances for the Seahawks had been limited to one start and a couple of substitute roles.
Lock expressed gratitude for the team’s support, emphasizing how both the offense and defense rallied around him in his second game of the year.
This victory snapped a four-game losing streak for the Seahawks, bringing their season record to 7-7 and keeping them in contention for the postseason.
Despite having secured a playoff spot, the Eagles faced their third consecutive defeat, tying them with the Dallas Cowboys at the top of the NFC East division.
The San Francisco 49ers continue to lead in the race for the NFC’s top seed and a first-round playoff bye. Meanwhile, the NFC North-leading Detroit Lions are yet to confirm their playoff spot, but could clinch the conference’s second seed by winning their final three regular-season games.
