How will the Seahawks defense match up to the Rams’ personnel usage in Round 2?
The Seattle Seahawks got into an unexpected street fight with a foe that many expected them to handle easily.

They brandished a bit of physical play in the Emerald City […]
NFC Playoff Picture, Week 16: The one way the Seahawks can still miss the playoffs
The Seattle Seahawks are within touching distance of the postseason after a two-year absence. All they have to do is win one of their final three games and they’re all set for more football in January. The Seahawks haven’t lost consecutive games all season, so a full-on collapse would be a shocker despite a difficult […]

How to watch Seahawks vs. Rams on ‘Thursday Night Football’ without Prime Video
The big rematch is finally here, and it’s as important as advertised. The Seattle Seahawks (11-3) and Los Angeles Rams (11-3) are on a collision course to determine the NFC West winner (although the 10-4 San Francisco 49ers are by no means out of the picture). Whoever wins this has the inside track on the […]
The Seahawks Syndicate: What does Seattle need to make a Super Bowl run?
We’re less than 24 hours away from the biggest game of the Seattle Seahawks’ 2025 season, and one of their biggest in years. A win over the Los Angeles Rams puts them in control of the NFC West and on the cusp of capturing the NFC’s No. 1 seed. A loss could send them down […]
Seahawks-Rams Week 16 injury news: Charles Cross potentially out for rest of regular season
The game designations for the Seattle Seahawks and Los Angeles Rams have been made, and while the good news is Seattle only has one player declared out for Thursday’s possible division title decider, the bad news is that player is facing a multi-week injury. Left tackle Charles Cross was always going to be a longshot […]
Seahawks All-22 review: The good and bad from Seattle’s close win vs. Colts
The Seattle Seahawks’ win over the Indianapolis Colts fits neatly into the category of games where the final score masks a lot of underlying issues. From an All-22 perspective, snap by snap, this was a win built more on competitiveness, defensive execution, and timely plays than on a coherent or efficient offensive performance. In classic […]

Jason Myers brings home NFC Special Teams Player of the Week
Was there any other option for the NFL to choose for the NFC Special Teams Player of the week than Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers? After Myers split the uprights six times on Sunday, including a 56-yard game-winning field goal, to set a franchise record and will the Seahawks past the Indianapolis Colts, you’d be […]
The Seahawks should abandon the run game to win the division
We’re still running off the joyful fumes of a touchdown-less victory over the Indianapolis Colts are we not? I wrote earlier about the struggles on offense being more tied to the line than the quarterback, and that conversation has been full of cheer. That sets us up beautifully for this: The Seattle Seahawks should drastically […]
Seattle Seahawks announce game captains for massive rematch vs. LA Rams
The Seahawks come to a fitting fork in the road on Thursday Night Football this week. This team will see a chance to avenge a close loss against a division rival perfectly dovetail with the opportunity to stake claim to the #1 seed in the NFC against a Super Bowl contender. With such weighty implications […]
Everyone is wrong about Cooper Kupp
The Cooper Kupp hate is weird, man. The Seattle Seahawks currently utilize Kupp has their WR2 or WR3 behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba. That’s not his fault – the entire NFL is behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba. But all this commentary this season about Kupp “not being the player he once was” is overblown. In fact, an argument exists […]

Seahawks-Rams Week 16 injury report: It’s not looking good for Charles Cross
The Seattle Seahawks haven’t had an actual practice during this short week turnaround to face the Los Angeles Rams. In a world where the Seahawks did do a normal practice, the injury report looks very clean except for one key player: Charles Cross.

Four Down Territory: Jason Myers beats Philip Rivers, 18-16
Well, it wasn’t quite Rocky vs Apollo, but the heavyweight (sorry, that was mean) battle between the Seattle Seahawks’ much maligned kicker and Rivers doing his best Dennis Quaid “The Rookie” impression was some of the best bad football I can remember. It was a historic day in Seattle for a lot of reasons. We […]
Seahawks waive core special teamer
The stretch run has arrived and the Seattle Seahawks are getting healthy. In recent weeks several members of the team have returned from injured reserve or, as in the case of rookie Rylie Mills, been activated from the nonfootball injury list. The side effect of that is that the team has needed to create spots […]

Seahawks All-22 review: The good and bad from Seattle’s rookies vs. Colts
The Seattle Seahawks rookie snap count dropped significantly in Week 15, with the group combining for 137 total snaps. That decrease is largely explained by two offensive rookies landing on Injured Reserve (Elijah Arroyo and Tory Horton), Rylie Mills being eased back in with fewer than 10 snaps after a long injury absence, and Robbie […]
Seahawks Week 16 power rankings: Seattle needs to clean up its offense, and fast
Last week, after defeating the Atlanta Falcons in a rather dominant manner, the Seahawks maintained the same average power ranking. Could a sloppy victory over grandfather, Philip Rivers and the Indianapolis Colts potentially drop the Seahawks down?

Enemy Reaction 2025: Indianapolis Colts
Alrighty, this is a weird one. The Seattle Seahawks narrowly beat the Indianapolis Colts, so this is as close to doing an Enemy Reaction for a Seahawks loss as I’ve ever come. Not that the Seahawks haven’t had close wins before, but the thought of losing to 44-year-old Philip Rivers at quarterback as a two-touchdown […]

Dolphins vs. Steelers ‘Monday Night Football’ live discussion
Hey, remember when the Miami Dolphins were way out of the playoff picture? I mean they still are, but they’re not as far as they could be after starting the season 2-7.

Charles Cross suffers awkward hamstring injury on Jason Myers’ winning field goal
The good news for the Seattle Seahawks is that Jason Myers is a boss.
