After handling the 49ers at home, the Seahawks hosted the Pittsburgh Steelers for the first time since the 2003 season. Richard Sherman, who has not intercepted a pass in the first 12 games of the season, recorded his first in the third quarter. The game was a shootout as Russell Wilson, playing on his 27th birthday, passed for 345 yards and threw five touchdown passes (three of them to WR Doug Baldwin). Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger passed for 456 yards against the Seahawks' defense, which are the most passing yards the Seahawks have ever allowed to an opposing quarterback. With the win, the Seahawks improved to 6-5 and earned their first win of the season against a team with a winning record. The victory was bittersweet, however, as Jimmy Graham suffered an apparent leg injury in the third quarter. It was later revealed that Graham tore the patellar tendon in his knee. The Seahawks announced afterwards that Graham would undergo surgery and miss the rest of the season.
