Seahawks Reacts Survey results: Fans confident Seattle comes out on top over Bears

A new SB Nation Reacts poll shows 94% of fans expect the Seattle Seahawks to win Monday night’s primetime clash against the Chicago Bears, with most predicting a 9‑16 point margin. After a dominant 20‑3 win over the Chiefs, Seattle sits two games behind the 49ers in the NFC West and aims to keep the momentum despite missing key receivers Rashid Shaheed and Zach Charbonnet, and several injuries on the line. The Bears, led by QB Caleb Williams and a top‑10 offense, have won four of their last five and could keep the game close. The Seahawks’ defense, fresh from a four‑sack, four‑turnover performance, will need to contain Williams and D’Andre Swift as Seattle leans on Sam Darnold’s passing game.

DeForest Buckner joins growing list proving 49ers don’t burn bridges

The 49ers are building a reputation for keeping doors open to former players, as defensive tackle DeForest Buckner rejoins the team after stints with the Chicago Bears and a brief free‑agency saga. Buckner joins Dre Greenlaw, Deebo Samuel and (formerly) Kendrick Bourne as the fourth ex‑49er to return, underscoring a culture that values personalized support, modern resources and veteran leadership. While some departures—like Greenlaw’s short stint in Denver and Samuel’s trade to Washington—ended in frustration, the players’ returns suggest the organization offers a better fit than rival teams. The article argues that this trend bolsters locker‑room morale and offers a recruiting edge for rookies and free agents.

49ers Linked to Garrett Wilson Trade Ahead of Deadline

The San Francisco 49ers are being linked to a trade for Jets wideout Garrett Wilson as the NFL deadline looms. Wilson, 26, has 444 yards and three touchdowns on 51 targets this season and is under a four‑year, $130 million extension through 2030. A deal would give San Francisco a prime receiving option to boost an offense that averages just over 200 passing yards per game, but would likely demand hefty draft capital and salary‑cap space. The Jets, mired in a disappointing start, have not confirmed Wilson’s availability, though rumors persist that a move could help them rebuild.
