The Rams beat the Raiders 27-20, improving to 7‑3 but still needing about ten wins for a NFC wildcard. Despite missing key defenders like Myles Garrett and Poona Ford (out for the year), the defense limited Vegas to 42 rushing yards. Offensively, Matthew Stafford was efficient and the ground game thrived thanks to Blake Corum and Kyren Williams, while receiver depth remained a concern without Davante Adams or tight end Terrance Ferguson. Backup linebacker Shaun Dolac impressed, and reserve lineman Tyler Davis stepped up amid injuries. The next three matchups against the Chargers, Commanders and Cardinals are crucial for keeping playoff hopes alive.
Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones energizes the Week 7 Sunday Night Football showdown against the Seattle Seahawks with a viral player intro that declares his alma mater as "Sack Nation University." The undefeated Chiefs (5-0) host a 3-3 Seahawks at Lumen Field after a 22-6 win over the Chargers. Jones, a Mississippi State alum, has 13 tackles, 0.5 sacks, two passes defended and a fumble recovery in five games and hopes to add his next sack tonight. He also uses his platform to run the Sack Nation Foundation for underserved youth.
The Los Angeles Rams snap a slump with a 35-21 win over the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday, boosting them to 3-4 and back into the NFC West chase. Matthew Stafford throws three TD passes, and Kyren Williams adds a rushing score, giving the Rams a 28-6 halftime lead. Despite a costly fake‑punt conversion, a fumble, a facemask penalty and an interception that kept the game closer than expected, the defense holds firm and Blake Corum seals the victory with a late rushing TD. The win comes as the 49ers slip to 6‑1, keeping L.A.'s playoff hopes alive ahead of a Week 8 showdown with the Chargers.
The Kansas City Chiefs visit Seattle on Sunday, Oct. 25, for a Week 7 Sunday Night Football showdown at 8:20 PM ET on NBC. Kansas City, 5‑0 after a 22‑6 win over the Chargers, leans on Patrick Mahomes (1,309 yards, nine TDs) and league‑leading rusher Kenneth Walker III (665 yards, six TDs) against his former team. The Seahawks sit at 3‑3 after a 17‑14 OT loss to Denver, with Sam Darnold and top receiver Jaxon Smith‑Njigba (717 yards, seven TDs) trying to snap the Chiefs’ streak. The game streams live on Fubo (free trial available).
The Kansas City Chiefs will play Sunday Night Football without wideout Rashee Rice, who is sidelined by knee and hamstring injuries suffered against the Las Vegas Raiders on Oct. 4. Missing his second straight game after the bye week, Rice’s return date is uncertain. Coach Andy Reid leans on Xavier Worthy—who logged seven catches for 73 yards versus the Chargers—as the primary replacement, with Justin Watson and rookie Andrew Armstrong also in the mix. Tight end Travis Kelce remains a key target if his ankle holds up, leaving Mahomes to adjust his passing attack against Seattle.
Fans wonder if Taylor Swift will join the Kansas City Chiefs at Seattle’s Lumen Field for Sunday Night Football in Week 7, but her attendance remains unconfirmed. She’s typically seen at home games and was last spotted supporting husband Travis Kelce at the October 18 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers, seated with singer Este Haim and star Caitlin Clark. Meanwhile, Kelce is expected to play despite an ankle injury, having recorded four catches for 53 yards against the Chargers, while wideout Rashee Rice sits out with a hamstring/knee issue. The article notes Swift’s likely absence and Kelce’s tentative status.

Entering their bye week, the Los Angeles Chargers sit near the bottom of the league in several key categories after six games. The offense averages just 287.2 total yards (26th), 15.0 points (30th), 168.2 passing yards (27th) and 119.0 rushing yards (11th). Quarterback Justin Herbert leads with 1,141 passing yards and five TDs, while RB Omarion Hampton posts 289 rushing yards and three scores. On defense, the unit allows 330.0 yards (17th) and 25.2 points per game (22nd), with LB Daiyan Henley topping tackles (36) and Edge rusher Khalil Mack leading with five sacks. With 11 games remaining, the Chargers must dramatically improve to stay competitive.

The Chicago Bears are actively negotiating with the Los Angeles Chargers for 35‑year‑old defensive end Khalil Mack as the NFL trade deadline approaches on Nov. 10. ESPN’s Adam Schefter and Fox’s Jay Glazer both note the Bears' persistent interest, despite the Chargers (0‑6) claiming they want to keep Mack to win games. With the Chargers on a bye week and slated to face the Rams (2‑4) on Nov. 1 and the Texans (2‑4) on Nov. 8, the Bears could become the most aggressive North‑team trader before the deadline.
With the Chargers sitting at 0-6, the blog suggests three must‑watch games for their fans during the bye week. A Dolphins‑Jets win in Seattle would lock the Chargers into the No. 1 overall draft pick, while a high‑scoring showdown between the Lions (who have put 26+ points in each of their first five games) and the Packers could be the week’s best offensive display. Finally, Sunday Night Football pits the undefeated Chiefs against the Seahawks, featuring Super Bowl MVP Kenneth Walker III’s return to Seattle after leaving for Kansas City.
Adam Schefter and Ian Rapoport of ESPN report that there is expected to be trade interest in Chargers veteran OLB Khalil Mack ahead of the deadline including from teams such as the Bears. However, ESPN says that the Chargers still have not given up on this season, despite the fact that they’re 0-6. As of […]
