Now, Smith and the Seahawks are 7-5 through 13 weeks, placing them atop the NFC West standings. At this time of year, every game matters more than the last, so the Seahawks offense will have to continue producing positive performances to return to the playoffs.

Big plays have been signature feats recently, too. Per the Elias Sports Bureau, the last time the Seahawks had interceptions returned for touchdowns in consecutive games was Dec. 9 and 16 of 2012. Richard Sherman and Earl Thomas were the highlighted names then, and Coby Bryant and Williams are the featured defensive stars of the last two weeks.

The New York Jets got beat by Geno Smith on and off the field in Week 13. The Jets (3-9) coughed up a 14-point lead after a hot start and eventually lost 26-21 to the Seattle Seahawks (7-5).
