Saints trail Seahawks 10-3 after the first quarter

NEW ORLEANS – The Saints continued their first-quarter troubles against the Seattle Seahawks. The Black and Gold currently trail 10-3 in the Dome. 

The Saints’ offense did have a solid start to the game, getting points on their opening possession.

Geno Smith came into Sunday’s matchup leading the league in completion percentage with 77%, and he showed it on the first drive. Smith hit DK Metcalf for a 50-yard touchdown to give Seattle a 7-3 lead.

The Seahawks defense would then force a 3 and out and get a field goal to take a 10-3 lead after the first quarter.
