The Seahawks beat the Vikings 26-0 on Sunday thanks to a dominant performance from the defense, and with that win, they now sit at 9-3 with five games left to play.

In addition to that lopsided final score, here are 12 numbers that help tell the story of Sunday's win at Lumen Field:

0

Points scored by the Vikings, making it the Seahawks' first shutout since they beat the Bears, also by a 26-0 margin, in Week 3 of the 2015 season.

11

First downs for the Bears, the fewest for a Seahawks opponent this season, and tied for the fewest in the past two seasons under Mike Macdonald.

5

Takeaways for Seattle's defense—interceptions by Ernest Jones IV, who had two, Coby Bryant, Riq Woolen, and a fumble forced by DeMarcus Lawrence that was recovered by Ty Okada. It was the most takeaways for the Seahawks in a game since they also had five in a 2019 win over the Eagles.

85

Length of Ernest Jones IV's interception return touchdown, the third longest pick-six in the NFL this season. It was also Jones' first career touchdown, and with another interception later in the game, he's up to five this season, tied for the second most in the NFL.

According to Pro Football Reference data, Jones is one of five players to record at least 12 tackles, two interceptions and at touchdown in the same game, and one of only two linebackers to do it along with Donnie Edwards, who accomplished twice, most recently in 2004.

4

Sacks recorded by the Seahawks, upping their season total to 40, the fourth most in the NFL. The Seahawks became the first team since Baltimore in 2017 to record five takeaways and four sacks while also shutting out an opponent.

4

Sacks of Sam Darnold, all of which came in the first half. That's the highest sack total allowed this season by the Seahawks, who came into Week 13 having allowed a league-low 11 sacks.

219

Yards gained by Seattle's offense, a season low.

8

Touchdowns for Zach Charbonnet after he scored Seattle's lone offensive touchdown on Sunday. That matches his single-season high for rushing touchdowns, having also scored eight rushing touchdowns, along with one receiving, last year.

125

Rushing yards, on 32 carries, giving the Seahawks 114 rushing yards or more in four consecutive games.

1

Tackle for loss for linebacker Drake Thomas, who also had half a sack. Thomas, who did not begin the season as a starter, is up to a team-leading 10 tackles for loss this season.

2

Receptions for 23 yards for Jaxon Smith-Njigba, a quiet day for the NFL's leading receiver. Even with limited opportunities on Sunday, Smith-Njigba managed to move into 10th place on the franchise all-time receptions list with 245 in less than full three seasons.

14

Points scored by Jason Myers, who went 4 for 4 on field goal attempts, including makes from 56 and 54 yards. Myers currently leads the NFL in scoring with 122 points.
