Seahawks Dominate Giants to the tune of 23-0, a tune in this case sung by Twitter
Today’s Seahawks Twitter recap is shorter than most because I had a Christmas party to go to during the second half, but from what I could tell by what I saw on the muted TV at the party, I didn’t miss a ton in the second half.
Giants win toss and defer, so Seahawks will get ball first.

1st quarter
Turbin back to receive kickoff and kneels the touchback. Here we go!
— Seattle Seahawks (@Seahawks)
After a Marshawn Lynch run.
Through one play, sounds like there are more Seahawks than Giants fans in the Meadowlands this morning
— Jacson Bevens (@JacsonBevens)
Golden Tate is a good athlete.
Think about the last time you tried to jump while running and then remember what that looked and felt like.
— Chris T. Masname (@30AcreFortress)
First drive ends.
Pass to Baldwin is two yards short so Seahawks will punt.
— Bob Condotta (@bcondotta)
Another fair catch of a Seattle punt so Giants will start on their own 15.
— Bob Condotta (@bcondotta)
Clinton McDonald is having a season for a guy who wasn’t on the team the beginning of the season.
McDonald starting for McDaniel, who was sick this week. Good pressure on first down and Manning throws it away.
— Bob Condotta (@bcondotta)
Pressure ends Giants first drive.
Eli Manning needs a nap dot gif
— Chris T. Masname (@30AcreFortress)
SACK! there to down Manning on 3rd down. Giants go three and out on their first offensive series.
— Seattle Seahawks (@Seahawks)
I forgot how funny Eli looks taking a sack. Most awkward pro athlete in history.
— Fake Adrian Hanauer (@FakeAdrianH)
Probably about 50-60 percent full here, for what it's worth. Pretty dead atmosphere so far.
— Jayson Jenks (@JaysonJenks)
. gives Seahawks great field position on the punt return. Seattle takes over at the New York 42.
— Seattle Seahawks (@Seahawks)
Commercials.
That Bud Light Superbowl cruise looks like a massive frat boy puke fest.
— Kim Sharpe Jones (@seattlekim)
Marshawn Lynch is powerful.
Marshawn Lynch turns defenders into Pez dispensers.
— Sonics Faithful (@Jome20)
Lynch gives photographers at least one beast mode pose every game. Shoves his hand into DBs face with authority
— Brian Nemhauser (@hawkblogger)
Prince Amukamara finds out what 's hand tastes like. stiff arm on the flat pass gains 11.
— Seattle Seahawks (@Seahawks)
Golden Tate drop ends second drive.

Tate kills me. He's really good, wants to be treated &paid like a #1 guy, but makes one of those plays a game where you just shake your head
— Kyle Rancourt (@KyleRancourt)
Steven Hauschka good on a 49 yard field goal attempt. Seahawks lead 3-0.
49-yard FG attempt is good. On the board now, lead Giants 3-0 with 8:33 left in 1Q. Drive went 5 plays for 11 yards in 2:00.
— Liz Mathews 710 ESPN (@Liz_Mathews)
Good guys strike first. 3-0 ! Steven Hauschka is now 28 of 29 this year. Automatic.
— KOMO News (@komonews)
Remember Josh Wilson? Here’s what he’s up to.
Steven Jackson destroys Josh Wilson. http://t.co/yggI1bWVhX

Another punt for the Giants.
Tate fair catch at his own 7.
— Bob Condotta (@bcondotta)
/watches Golden Tate call for a fair catch /checks sky for signs of apocalypse /settles nervously back into couch
— Jacson Bevens (@JacsonBevens)
Robin Thicke song penetrates broadcast.
I sure have some blurred lines looking deep into Russell Wilson’s facemask
— M@ (@SeattleDoorMatt)
Marshawn Lynch, sometimes safety valve for Russell Wilson.
Houdini escapes the pocket and finds his outlet in for a gain of 22.
— Seattle Seahawks (@Seahawks)
Wow. Wilson magic…. not many guys can do that. So awesome
— Dave Softy Mahler (@Softykjr)
Now is the moment you throw the controller if this were a video game. Unfortunately for the , no resets.
— Danny 710ESPNSeattle (@BrocknDanny)
Are we sure that Marshawn Lynch was on the field for the start of that play? He didn't just step in off the sideline did he?
— Seattle Sportsnet (@alexSSN)
Another pass to Lynch on third down. Generous spot challenged by Giants, who win the challenge. Fourth down. Punt results in a touchback.
Marshawn Faulk.
— Casey McLain (@CaseyMcLain34)
Wilson flares it out to Lynch who leaps and appears to get the first down.
— Bob Condotta (@bcondotta)
Giants are challenging spot.
— Todd Dybas (@Todd_Dybas)
Marshawn looks short in the swaps of Jersey… Coughlin should win this challenge. Ball should be spotted at the 48.
— Mike Pereira (@MikePereira)
Tom Coughlin held that challenge flag in his hand as if he just blew his nose in it
— Steve Sandmeyer (@SteveSandmeyer)
I think that might be the worst punt result the Seahawks have had in several games.
— M@ (@SeattleDoorMatt)
Byron Maxwell removes ball from Victor Cruz‘s hands. Interception.
He just took his cookies!
— Matt Holt-ish (@TheMattHolt)
Teams are testing Maxwell a lot. So far, he has two picks in his last three games and has held up.
— Jayson Jenks (@JaysonJenks)
Your reminder that Byron Maxwell is the 4th-string CB on this team. Secondary deeper than a stoner's thoughts at 2am.
— Jacson Bevens (@JacsonBevens)
Byron Maxwell is playing well enough to make it difficult for Browner or Thurmond to get starting jobs back when they return.
— Tim Booth (@ByTimBooth)
2nd Quarter
End first quarter. Seahawks up 3-0 and with the ball.
— Bob Condotta (@bcondotta)
At the end of the 1Q, Seattle with 100 yards, 70 of those passing. Wilson went 7-8, long of 22, rating of 103.1
— Liz Mathews 710 ESPN (@Liz_Mathews)
This about Paul McQuistan.
McQuistan RT : He’s as “worthless as tits on a boar hog,” as a southern friend of mine would say.
— M@ (@SeattleDoorMatt)
Golden Tate is a weirdo.
Tate does not call for the fair catch and gets drilled at the 19. Hangs on to the ball, though. So, he's got that going for him.
— Seattle Seahawks (@Seahawks)
You’re funny, ESPN.
Once again, the ESPN employee who updates their Sportscenter app is drunk. pic.twitter.com/klyImQ1uYY
— John McCallum (@johncmack)
Another Seahawks punt.
Rare punt return against Seahawks but it doesn't go far, officially 4 yards. Giants start on own 34.
— Bob Condotta (@bcondotta)
Richard Sherman interception. Just don’t throw to Richard Sherman.
Richard Sherman is just sick..maybe the best I've seen with my own eyes? D Sanders and Lester Hayes-esque
— seaks (@seaks)
Sherman moves into a tie for second in the NFL in interceptions with his fifth.
— Todd Dybas (@Todd_Dybas)
It amazes me that people keep throwing the 9-route against Richard Sherman. Got to be one of the lowest-probability plays in the book
— Danny Kelly (@FieldGulls)
Russell Wilson big pass to Doug Baldwin.
Russell Wilson and DVOA both love Doug Baldwin this year.
— Casey McLain (@CaseyMcLain34)
After another big pass from Wilson, a touchdown run from Marshawn Lynch. Seahawks lead 10-0.
TOUCHDOWN ! Amazing power by Beastmode! Bust out the Skittles. 10-0 Hawks here in just a second after review.
— KOMO News (@komonews)
Tony McDaniel in the game.
DT Tony McDaniel didn't start, but is on the field for this series. Drew a holding penalty.
— Danny 710ESPNSeattle (@BrocknDanny)
Jeremy Lane has the flat handled today.
Great play by Lane to sniff out the third down screen and Giants will punt.
— Bob Condotta (@bcondotta)
Another Giants punt.
Two-minute warning and the Seahawks have the ball 3rd and 6 at their 38 leading 10-0.
— Seattle Seahawks (@Seahawks)
Too soon.
Seattle lost Boeing HQ but added DB factory RT : Opinion: Jeremy Lane now looks better as slot corner than Walter Thurmond
— Mike Sando, ESPN.com (@SandoESPN)
Golden Tate with a first down catch. Ended up being a pentalty, but was then followed by a 31 yard pass to Marshawn Lynch.
Wilson third down scramble finds Tate, who fights for first down to the 46.
— Bob Condotta (@bcondotta)
Goooooood gravy, Marshawn is gonna have 100+ receiving today huh?
— Chris T. Masname (@30AcreFortress)
Touchdown pass to Golden Tate negated by penalty. Tate was out-of-bounds while running his route.
Touchdown to Tate being called back due to illegal touching. Looks like Tate went OB before catching pass in end zone.
— Bob Condotta (@bcondotta)
Steven Hauscka good from 44 yards. Seahawks lead 13-0, and this post potentially gets worse as I leave for a Christmas party.
https://twitter.com/Todd_Dybas/status/412302916049858561
Halftime
Marshawn Lynch's 73 yards receiving in first half. Career high is 78 yds receiving vs. Tennessee earlier this season.
— Tim Booth (@ByTimBooth)
Wilson seems too apt to run today, especially given that there hasn't been almost anything there all day. Now no time outs.
— Chris T. Masname (@30AcreFortress)
2nd Half (When I was at a Christmas party)
(This stuff was tweeted while I was at a Christmas party, so I apologize if I have it out of sequence or misinterpreted)
Victor Cruz makes a scary catch.
Oooooh… Victor Cruz just got planted with his head bouncing off the turf.
— Curtis Crabtree (@Curtis_Crabtree)
He did not control that ball through the catch.
— Brian Nemhauser (@hawkblogger)
Concussion
— Sean Kramer (@kramdawgsean)
Movement from the ball as it touches ground means it's an incompletion.
— _BVM (@_BVM)
Kinda cool how Seahawks trainer/coach ran out on the field to immediately stabilize Cruz when he landed hard near Seattle sideline
— Danny Kelly (@FieldGulls)
Another Byron Maxwell interception.
Byron Maxwell now has three interceptions in two weeks. Entering today that would tie him for 18th in the league. He's started three games.
— Curtis Crabtree (@Curtis_Crabtree)
Seahawks secondary is good.
Victor Cruz & Hakeem Nicks: 3 catches Richard Sherman & Byron Maxwell: 4 catches
— Jacson Bevens (@JacsonBevens)
Unofficial stat but Seahawks must lead the league in intimidation drops.
— John Morgan (@LesserNesser)
Sounds like the four or five Giants fans in the stadium were really frustrated with the no call on the PI there. Could grow to a tiny mob.
— John Morgan (@LesserNesser)
It got out of hand.
With 7:35 remaining in regulation, Giants have the ball 1st&10 on their 25 and trailing Seahawks 23-0.
