Seahawks win, 35-14 over the Redskins

It was a topsy-turvy game, but the Seahawks emerged as the victor:
Injured and overlooked most of the season, wide receiver D. J. Hackett has made a huge impression against the Redskins.

His fourth-quarter touchdown catch of a 24-yard pass from Matt Hasselbeck was his sixth reception so far in the game, for a team-leading 101 yards.

The catch returned the lead to Seattle, and combined with Tacoma product Marcus Trufant's dazzling 78-yard interception return, the Seahawks are comfortably back in the lead.

Trfant's TD was the first interception thrown by Todd Collins that was returned for a TD in 10 years.

"That just completely turns this game upside down," TV commentator Chris Collingsworth says.
Now it's on to Green Bay for Round 2...and back to Lambeau Field.
