The stupidest name in smart football analysis.
The Seattle Seahawks pulled off an NFL first in their dramatic, improbable 38-37 win over the Los Angeles Rams on Thursday Night Football. When Sam Darnold threw the decisive pass to Eric Saubert for the game’s final points, the Seahawks became the first team in NFL history to win an overtime game via two-point conversion. […]
What a whirlwind of a game that was!!! The Seattle Seahawks (12-3) are in first place in the NFC West. They were 30-14 down in the fourth quarter and they’d never come back from more than 14 in the fourth quarter in franchise history. In season 50, that streak is over. From 30-14 down, the […]
The Seattle Seahawks will not escape from the injury bug unscathed in Week 16—safety Coby Bryant has been removed from the game due to injury. Bryant left for the medical tent early in the fourth quarter following a Matthew Stafford 1-yard touchdown pass to Puka Nacua. The 26-year-old safety headed for the locker room after […]
The Seattle Seahawks have been dominated by the Los Angeles Rams. They’ve given up 257 yards of total offense in rainy, windy conditions, done nothing on offense outside of the opening drive touchdown, and Cooper Kupp fumbled away at least three points right before the break. Seattle’s ball security across the offense (except at running […]
There’s one more regular season home game for the 2025 Seattle Seahawks, and it’s their biggest one in years. Either they’ll likely be in the playoffs as a wild card after being swept by the Los Angeles Rams, or they’ll be on the cusp of clinching the No. 1 seed in the NFC after exacting […]
The Seattle Seahawks and Los Angeles Rams have announced their inactives for their gigantic Week 16, potentially No. 1 seed deciding showdown at Lumen Field. As expected, left tackle Charles Cross is the only injured inactive for Seattle. Jalen Milroe will again serve as an emergency quarterback should Sam Darnold and Drew Lock both get […]
A Thursday Night Football game for the Seattle Seahawks in Week 16 means practice-squad elevations and other roster moves on a Thursday, rather than a Saturday. The Seahawks announced that they have activated wide receiver Dareke Young from injured reserve, as well as elevated running back Cam Akers and offensive tackle Amari Kight from the […]
First place in the NFC West and the No. 1 seed in the NFC is on the line on a stormy Thursday night at Lumen Field. The Seattle Seahawks (11-3) and Los Angeles Rams (11-3) share identical records, but the Rams have the edge based on their Week 11 win back in November. It was […]
Thursday Night Football comes to Lumen Field in Week 16, and what a matchup it is. The 11-3 Seattle Seahawks will host the 11-3 Los Angeles Rams for the right to claim both first place in the NFC West, and the top seed in the NFC heading into the final weeks of the regular season. […]
If there’s a divisional matchup that consistently comes down to the margins, it’s the Seattle Seahawks and Los Angeles Rams. The standings matter, the history matters, but what usually decides these games shows up on the All-22: spacing, leverage, timing, and who is forced to abandon their original structure first. Awesome matchup between Sean McVay […]
It’s here! It’s the day Seattle Seahawks fans have all been waiting for ever since that tough loss back in November. Week 16 kicks off with the Seahawks and Los Angeles Rams squaring off for top spot in the NFC West. Both teams are 11-3 and the winner has the clear path to the No. […]
The Seattle Seahawks got into an unexpected street fight with a foe that many expected them to handle easily. On Sunday, the Indianapolis Colts, looking invigorated by the un-retirement of a former legend, in Phillip Rivers, came out with energy and came out swinging. They brandished a bit of physical play in the Emerald City […]
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 […]
In Today’s Links: the best match-up (so far) of the 2025 NFL season is tonight, and like me, I’m sure you cannot wait for it. Below is most of the pertinent news from the world of our Seattle Seahawks, enough for the average Field Gulls patron to possibly ingest in one sitting. Dive into the […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
NFL action in Week 16 starts off with the most anticipated game of the week. For those who have grown accustomed to Thursday Night Football in December bringing meaningless matchups between the likes of the Tennessee Titans and Jacksonville Jaguars or the like, this week the game features the only two teams in the NFC […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
In Today’s Links: our Seattle Seahawks keep winning, sometimes despite themselves; another mailbag from John Boyle, all kind of previews of the all-important ‘Hawks TNF game against the Los Angeles Rams, a look at the NFC West and our chances at taking home the division crown, and much more. How worried are you about our […]
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. Seattle’s standout left tackle left Sunday’s 18-16 win over the Indianapolis Colts […]
