NFL games rarely hinge on one man’s foot anymore, but Sunday’s game in Seattle felt like a throwback. In a gritty, low-scoring affair between the Seahawks and the Indianapolis Colts, there were no offensive fireworks or highlight-reel touchdowns.
The Seahawks (11-3) were struggling on offense before Sunday. Seattle hasn’t scored an offensive touchdown in the first half since Jaxon Smith-Njigba’s 62-yard TD catch against Tennessee on Nov. 23. Its last first-quarter touchdown came in a win over Arizona on Nov. 9.
With the NFL's "dynamic" kickoff rules and the explosion of drastically longer field goals, the "foot" in football is more important than ever.
