Half-Time Report: Ricardo Lockette the difference for Seattle Seahawks at half time

Second-quarter touchdowns from Ricardo Lockette and Marshawn Lynch have pushed the Seattle Seahawks to a 17-3 half-time lead over the Denver Broncos at the CenturyLink Field in the NFL.

The Seahawks were the first side to notch points in the encounter, with the trusty Steven Hauschka producing a field goal from 20 yards out from the post.

Neither side seemed keen to open up in the first quarter as they settled for an opening six-point affair, with Brandon McManus responding for the Broncos with a 24-yard field goal to leave things at 3-3 going into the second.

The Hawks made the most of the second quarter thanks to some superb technique from Russell Wilson, who produced a 39-yard loft to set Lockette on his way, before Hauschka kicked to make it 10-3.

Wilson produced again right before the half came to an end as he threw adroitly from five yards to Marshawn Lynch, moving the scores to 17-3 at the break.
