Seattle's 38-35 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers Sunday showcased the strengths of the Seahawks' offense when playing effectively and productively.

Sam Darnold finished the game 28 of 34, throwing for 341 yards and four touchdowns and a passer rating of 135.4. He also led Seattle on another scoring drive that ended with a Zach Charbonnet rushing touchdown.

But the most impressive drive of Sunday's matchup was a 99-yard touchdown drive during the fourth quarter. After being pinned at the one-yard line by a Tampa Bay punt, Darnold and the offense put together an eight-play drive to score. The touchdown came on a fourth-and-two 21-yard pass to rookie Tory Horton to take the lead.

That drive consisted of four rushes, the longest run being a 22-yard by Kenneth Walker III and four passes, the longest throw being a 22-yard pass to Jaxon Smith-Njigba.

"Sam was great," head coach Mike Macdonald said following the game. "Played a tremendous football game. Thought we were going to have a chance to win the game there at the end. What was it, 99-yard drive, fourth down, extending plays. I thought Sam played tremendous."
