A perfect 3-0, and yet somewhat short on believers, DK Metcalf and the Seahawks weren’t oblivious in recognizing the massive step its confidence would take with a Monday Night Football victory over one of the NFC’s proven powerhouses. Proficient the art of taking said step while simultaneously remaining inbounds, Metcalf exemplifies it on Seattle’s very first offensive play, matching his quarterback’s smoothly-timed throw by elevating into a balletic, sideline toe-tap catch for 20 yards. Offering plenty more production over the game’s ensuing three quarters, Metcalf, even in a 42-29 loss to the Detroit Lions on Sept. 30, 2024, was consistently brilliant, recording 104 yards — his third-consecutive 100-yard game — alongside seven catches.
