The Seattle Seahawks are trying to bounce back after a disappointing loss against their division rival San Francisco 49ers.

They’re match up today is against the struggling New York Giants, which means a possible field day for this Seahawks defense since Eli Manning is under center. And that’s exactly what it has been today. So far today, there has been five total interceptions recorded, four by the Seahawks.

Seattle was up 16-0 against the Giants in the third quarter and were looking to put up more points on their final drive of the third quarter. Wilson tried finding wide receiver Ricardo Lockette down the sidelines but threw into double coverage.

Veteran corner Antrel Rolle was able to jump in front of Lockette and bring in the interception with only seconds left in the third quarter. It wasn’t much, but it temporarily stopped Seattle from putting points on the board. That is, until Eli Manning handed them the ball back with 12 seconds left in the third.

Seattle is currently the top team in the NFC and could lock up the NFC West with a win today over the Giants.
