Latest news and updates about the Seahawks
Sam Darnold and the Seattle Seahawks handed Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs their first loss of the season with a 20-3 victory at home on Sunday night.
The 49ers lost for the first time in Week 7, and wins by the Seahawks and Rams made matters worse. Here's how the NFC West standings have changed.
The Seattle Seahawks bounce back with a 20-3 shutdown of the Kansas City Chiefs on Oct. 26, 2026. Sam Darnold throws for 257 yards, a touchdown and no sacks, while rookie Emanuel Wilson posts his first 100‑yard game and a fourth‑quarter TD. Patrick Mahomes is limited to 165 yards, an interception and never reaches the red zone—a first in his era. Jaxon Smith‑Njigba leads Seattle’s offense with 150 receiving yards. The win improves Seattle to 4‑3 and snaps a two‑game skid, reminding fans the Seahawks remain defending Super Bowl champs.
During the October 26 Chiefs‑Seahawks game, NBC's Cris Collinsworth mistakenly credited a Seahawks receiver collision for an interception that had already been made by Chiefs defender Noah Williams.

The backlash highlights how the mistaken play call fueled confusion and anger among viewers.
The 49ers drop their first game of the season but stay second in the NFC behind the 6‑0 Vikings, keeping the No. 1 seed within reach thanks to a head‑to‑head tiebreaker edge. After Week 7 the Niners sit 6‑1 overall and 3‑0 in the West, while Seattle sits 4‑3 and the Rams 3‑4. Across the conference, Minnesota leads at 6‑0, followed by New York (4‑2‑1) and Carolina (3‑3). The article notes the Vikings’ tough remaining slate, the Giants’ surprise surge under J.J. McCarthy, and the volatility of other contenders like the Seahawks, Rams and Falcons, underscoring how much still hangs in the balance.
The Chiefs fall 20-3 to the Seahawks in Seattle, exposing four key issues. Patrick Mahomes struggles with backup offensive tackles, posting a career‑low 5.0 yards per attempt and a 58.3 passer rating, plus two turnovers. Seattle slot star Jaxon Smith‑Njigba repeatedly beats Kansas City’s secondary, highlighting a need for better slot coverage. Both units lose the third‑down battle – the offense goes 3‑of‑11 and the defense can’t force stops, leaving Kansas City’s first score until late in the third quarter, the latest ever in a Mahomes regular‑season start. These flaws suggest urgent adjustments before the next game.
