The decisive sequence
Denver defeated Seattle 17–14 in overtime on October 15. The Broncos' official recap records Ja'Quan McMillian intercepting Sam Darnold in the extra period before Wil Lutz converted the decisive 53-yard field goal.
A game with a late reversal
Seattle erased an 11-point fourth-quarter deficit to force overtime. Denver's defense produced three takeaways and five sacks. The Seahawks' official game center lists the resulting records as 4–2 for the Broncos and 3–3 for Seattle.

A close, low-scoring game should not be reduced to its final kick. Seattle rebuilt its position late, while Denver converted a defensive opportunity into the result. Following possession changes, available kicking distance and offensive progress on one timeline helps explain how responsibility passes between units. That is more revealing than assigning the entire outcome to one moment.
