After having dipped their toes in the fire a few times but emerging unscathed the first two games of the season, the Seahawks apparently decided to up the difficulty ratio in Week 3 against the Saints and see what would happen if they just fully immolated themselves.

One of the more embarrassing home losses in recent Seahawks history, 33-27, against the a Saints team playing without future Hall of Fame quarterback Drew Brees.
Seattle committed a penalty on the first play of the game, setting the stage for one of the most mistake-filled days in recent team history.
