Twelve numbers that help tell the story of Seattle’s 38-35 loss to the Buccaneers.

numbers-of-noteweek5

The Seahawks dropped a heartbreaker on Sunday, falling 38-35 to the Buccaneers on a field goal as time expired. Sam Darnold and Seattle's offense put up big numbers, but so too did Baker Mayfield and Tampa Bay's offense against a Seahawks defense missing three starters, and that lost two more early in the game.

In addition to that final score, here are 12 rapid reactions to the Seahawks' Week 5 loss, which dropped their record to 3-2:

5

Consecutive touchdown drives for Seattle's offense, which unfortunately was not able to get the final score needed to win the game.

38

Points scored by Tampa Bay, the most by a Seahawks opponent this season by a large margin. Tampa Bay's 426 total yards and 7.3 yards-per-play average were also season-highs for Seahawks opponents.

3

Total punts in the game for both teams, who combined to score 73 points while putting up 889 yards of total offense and 52 first downs.

7

Third down conversions for Tampa Bay on 11 attempts, the highest third-down efficiency rate for a Seahawks opponent this season. The Seahawks also had a season-best conversion rate, going 6 for 9 on third down.

1

Sack, along with two quarterback hits, for Seattle's defense, matching a season-low for sacks.

0

Takeaways for Seattle's defense, the first time the Seahawks haven't forced a turnover this season. Sunday's game was also the first in which Seattle has lost the turnover battle this season.

341 & 4

Passing yards and touchdowns for Sam Darnold, both season highs.

132

Receiving yards for Jaxon Smith-Njigba, his third 100-yard game of the season and a season-high total. His eight receptions on Sunday helped him pass Joey Galloway for second-place for the most receptions in a player's first three seasons in franchise history with 197.

86

Rushing yards for Kenneth Walker III on 10 carries, making him the first back to eclipse 50 rushing yards this season against Tampa Bay's stingy run defense.

0

Sacks recorded by the Buccaneers, the second time this season the Seahawks have kept Darnold from getting sacked.

2

Touchdown receptions for tight end AJ Barner, giving him eight, on 44 receptions, in the first 22 games of his NFL career.

4

Touchdowns through five games for rookie receiver Tory Horton, tying him with Barner for the team lead. Horton, who has one punt return touchdown, added his third receiving touchdown in the fourth quarter to temporarily give the Seahawks a 35-28 lead.
