Marshawn Lynch fixed his quarterback's big mistake and then took it straight to the Redskins' homeland.
The Seattle Seahawks beat the Washington Redskins 24-14, and a huge part of that was running back Marshawn Lynch.
Lynch fumbled on the Redskins' goal line early, but was basically perfect from there on. Over the course of his 20 carries for 132 yards and a touchdown, two plays in particular stood out.

Midway through the second quarter, the Seahawks were in the process of trying to rally from 14 down. After faking a handoff, Russell Wilson fumbled the ball away.
Then Lynch came flying in, scooping up the ball and taking off downfield.
He managed to turn what could've been a turnover into a first down and then some. You could also say this compensated for his earlier fumble.
