Steelers defender fined after officials miss dirty hit on Seahawks QB Sam Darnold

Seattle Seahawks' quarterback Sam Darnold is drawing attention but, turns out, not penalty flags.

Darnold, whose Seahawks are heavily Sunday afternoon against the 0-2 New Orleans Saints at Lumen Field, threw for 295 yards and two touchdowns in last week's vital road win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. After a key fumble in the Red Zone of the Week 1 loss to the San Francisco 49ers, it was the kind of performance the Seahawks expected when they moved on from Geno Smith and gave him a three-year contract worth $100 million last March.

One of Darnold's best throws in the game came at the end of Seattle's first drive. It was impressive because of what we saw ... and what the officlals on the field apparently didn't see.
