Sea Hawkers Podcast
The Chicago Bears handed the Seattle Seahawks their worst loss of the Mike Macdonald era and left our Seahawks at 4-4 with one week to go before the bye. We start with an offensive line that was reshuffled on a week of prep, as Jeffery Simmons wrecked Grey Zabel at right guard in Quenton Nelson's debut. From there we get into Sam Darnold, who bailed from clean pockets, threw a late interception and overall looked uncomfortable behind his offensive line. Is it too soon to give up on offensive coordinator Brian Fleury, whose pace and red zone calls drew plenty of heat from the chat? We also talk...

With kickoff less than a day away, we go through some of the injury news and rumors we've been hearing leading to the Seahawks game against the Bears. First come the trade rumors, and why would our Seahawks move on Jarran Reed or Jadarian Price in the middle of a Super Bowl run? We also try to decode what Mike Macdonald meant when he said the team would let the transaction speak for itself, and where we stand on a Jonathan Taylor trade. Then it's the injury report: Charles Cross is out, Uchenna Nwosu is doubtful and the absence of Rashid Shaheed could open the door for Tory Horton. We also run...

The Seattle Seahawks are set to play on Monday Night Football, and their opponent just made a blockbuster trade of their own to counter the acquisition of guard Quenton Nelson. Bears fan and Bootleg Football/Bear Era co-host EJ Snyder explains why Caleb Williams looks like a different quarterback in Year 2 of Ben Johnson's offense, and why that should worry our Seahawks. Will Kyle Monangai play, and will Johnson ever stray from the run when it gets tough? EJ also breaks down what Simmons brings to Chicago, why Jaxon Smith-Njigba against the Bears' struggling outside corners is a nightmare for...

The Seattle Seahawks (4-3) host the Chicago Bears (5-2) on Monday Night Football, and both teams just traded for a lineman who could swing the night: guard Quenton Nelson for us and defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons for Chicago. The Bears are coming off a 30-24 win over the Patriots, and Ben Johnson's offense looked as dangerous as advertised. We look at the Bears who could pop up and be a nuisance and talk about which matters more in the run game, quality or quantity? There's also a floor-and-ceiling look at Darnold and Caleb Williams, a round of quick-fire match-ups (the Fridge versus the...

The Seattle Seahawks are coming off their 20-3 win over the Kansas City Chiefs and looking ahead to a Monday Night Football showdown with the Chicago Bears and Ben Johnson's red-hot offense. The defensive performance was exceptional and Nick Emmanwori's and Tyrice Knight both played a big role. Jaxon Smith-Njigba's start to 2026 is unmatched in the Super Bowl era. We did into how the offense found its rhythm nearing 70 percent conversion rate on 3rd down. It's was the best conversion rate so far under Mike Macdonald. Should Fleury get some of the credit, and does "run, run, pass" deserve more...

The Seattle Seahawks sent a 2027 third-round pick and a 2028 fifth-round pick to the Indianapolis Colts for All-Pro guard Quenton Nelson. We break down what Seattle gave up, why Nelson reportedly favored the Seahawks and who ends up being the odd man out along the o-line. Is the best five on the offensive line the obvious one, or could Zabel be snapping the ball after the bye? Then we go back to the film from the Seahawks 20-3 win over the Kansas City Chiefs, with a plethora of INs and one OUT. We talk about the duo block, gap integrity, Derick Hall setting the edge, Nick Emmanwori everywhere,...

Our Seattle Seahawks stuffed the previously undefeated Kansas City Chiefs 20-3 on Sunday Night Football. This Seahawks defense was so strong that Patrick Mahomes never even got into the red zone. Kenneth Walker came home in a Kansas City uniform and was held to 36 yards on 14 carries, while Emanuel Wilson ran for 100 yards and a 21-yard touchdown. We start the show talking about a defense that played generationally great, from Byron Murphy and a relentless front to Tyrice Knight, Ernest Jones and a Nick Emmanwori who did a little bit of everything. Then we get to Jaxon Smith-Njigba's 150-yard...

Our 3-3 Seattle Seahawks host the Kansas City Chiefs tomorrow and Zach Charbonnet is out after three straight full practices. Are the trade rumors hogwash, and what does the backfield look like behind Emanuel Wilson? Nick Emmanwori's hip, Demarcus Lawrence, Uchenna Nwosu and another game without Thomas leaves us wondering about the defense, while Anthony Bradford is back at right guard to help protect Sam Darnold. We take on a viewer's case for Drew Lock over Sam, run through the Chiefs' injuries, and look at why Jaxon Smith-Njigba could be the biggest problem for Steve Spagnuolo's blitzing,...

Kenneth Walker is coming home to Lumen Field, and our 3-3 Seattle Seahawks get a second shot at taking down an undefeated team. It's almost annoying how simple it sounds: hold onto the football, and we win the game. Was last season's run game all Kenneth Walker? We take a look back at the run game that we need to return to. Can Anthony Bradford's return help get the offense moving again? Or will Chris Jones make Bradford look like the guy we all remember from early last season? We dig into how Charles Cross handles George Karlaftis and whether Jaxon Smith-Njigba can keep torching a Chiefs...

The Seattle Seahawks are 3-3, the Kansas City Chiefs are 5-0, and Sunday Night Football is heading to Lumen Field. Can we bottle up Kenneth Walker, our former Super Bowl MVP, now carrying the load for Kansas City? Who shines brighter under the lights, JSN or Walker? We break down how close Sam Darnold has to be to Patrick Mahomes on pressures, turnovers and passer rating, whether our edge rushers can finally feast on a banged-up Chiefs line, and what Zach Charbonnet's return could mean on third down. We also read your wishes from the Flock and lock in our score predictions. The Seahawks vs...
