(Landover, MD) -- Russell Wilson threw for 201 yards and ran for 122 as the Seahawks were able to pull out a 27-17 win against the Redskins on "Monday Night Football" at FedEx Field. Wilson also totaled three touchdowns, two through the air and one on the ground.

Seattle jumped out to a 17-0 lead, but needed some key plays to hold on. Punter Jon Ryan ran for a first down on a fake field goal leading to a Marshawn Lynch touchdown catch and a 24-10 lead. Seattle is 3-1. Bouncing back from a poor performance last time out, Washington quarterback Kirk Cousins threw for 283 yards and two TDs. DeSean Jackson had a big night hauling in five receptions for 157 yards including a 60-yard score, but the 'Skins still fell to 1-4.
