Jason Myers on pace to break all-time NFL field goals single-season record

It is officially Jason Myers appreciation season. After putting up all 18 points for the Seattle Seahawks last week against the Indianapolis Colts, Myers is starting to get praise from all around the national media. From appearances on the Pat McAfee show, to winning NFC Special Teams Player of the Month for November, to breaking […]

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 […]

Pre-Snap Reads 12/16: How Coach Macdonald engineered a Seahawks victory

In Today’s Links: numbers of note from yesterday’s 2-point Seattle Seahawks victory over the Indianapolis Colts, a couple different looks at the ‘Hawks offense and some of their obvious issues, an early preview or two of Thursday’s match-up with the Los Angeles Rams, Jaxon Smith-Njigba continues to add to his historic 2025 season, a look […]

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. They’ve won four in a row to claw to 6-7, albeit starting at elimination with a loss against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Maybe the […]

Words of Prey, Seahawks vs. Colts: That could’ve gone dumber. No it couldn’t. Okay maybe a little

It also could’ve gone worse. And it didn’t do that, either. All things considered, not a top 50 disappointing game in Seattle Seahawks history. It had all the right ingredients for a catastrophe casserole, but in the end nobody choked. An afternoon that definitely started annoying was quelled before reaching full rage-inducing mode. In conclusion, […]

NFL Week 16 opening odds: Seahawks slight underdogs in Rams rematch

As the Seattle Seahawks and Los Angeles Rams prepare to meet in a pivotal NFC West clash, the betting market at FanDuel Sportsbook reflects just how evenly matched these division leaders are — and how much is on the line. With both teams locked near the top of the NFC and playoff seeding implications, oddsmakers […]

The Seattle Seahawks offense is broken, but Sam Darnold is not

After not allowing opponents to score a touchdown for 9 consecutive quarters, the Seattle Seahawks said “this looks fun, let me try!” Six scoring drives. 18 points. Six scoring drives if they’re touchdowns gets you 42 points. Field goals don’t win postseason games. Unless, apparently, Jason Myers is on a hot one. I’ll just get […]

Snap Reactions: Seahawks squeak out close win with Bryce Cabeldue inactive

So far in the 2025 season the Seattle Seahawks have won five games by 20 or more points, with rookie offensive lineman Bryce Cabeldue playing a key role in each of those victories. Specifically, Cabeldue has logged offensive snaps in exactly five contests this year, with those five games being: Cabeldue’s absence on offense has […]

Post-Snap Reads 12/15: Once again, Jason Myers saves the Seahawks

In Today’s Links: it was a game that decidedly had no consistent prediction from the pundits, both far and wide. As it went, Jason Myers showed us all in the Greater Hawkdom why he and the Seattle Seahawks Special Teams unit (Jay’s Jiants) have been truly special this season. Below are several articles, dissertations, takeaways, […]

Seahawks playoff picture: Where Seattle stands after Week 15

The Seattle Seahawks handled their business in Week 15 and it opens the door to a huge opportunity this coming Thursday. It wasn’t pretty, but the Seahawks beat the Indianapolis Colts 18-16, winning on a last second field goal. Regardless of how they performed, Seattle got a much-needed win to set up a massive Thursday […]

Winners and Losers from an uncomfortably close Seahawks win over Colts

The Seattle Seahawks almost had one of the most embarrassing losses of the season. Key word is almost. Credit to 44-year-old Philip Rivers for not looking woefully out of his place in his first start in five years (well, up until his final throw of the game), but the Seahawks would’ve been summarily and maybe […]

Seahawks pull off a franchise rarity: Winning without scoring a touchdown

The Seattle Seahawks could’ve defeated the Indianapolis Colts more handily with this little thing the sport likes to call “touch-downs,” named for the event associated with breaking the plane of the “end zone,” where drives are intended to, you know, end. But where’s the fun in that? Instead they pulled off a feat of some […]

Davante Adams availability in doubt for Week 16 Seahawks-Rams tilt

On Sunday afternoon at Lumen Field, the Seattle Seahawks and Mike Macdonald made their best attempt at giving fans a reminder of what it’s like when the team doesn’t win by multiple scores every week. A battered and bruised Indianapolis Colts team came into Lumen Field and led for much of the game, only for […]

Jason Myers saves the Seahawks with historic performance

Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers won NFC Special Teams Player of the Month for November after a nearly flawless showing of field goal and extra point kicking, not to mention how his kickoffs have been elite all season. Against the heavy underdog Indianapolis Colts, Myers represented all of the points the Seahawks scored, and they […]

Seahawks vs. Colts, 2nd half live discussion: Not good enough

The Seattle Seahawks will most likely make the playoffs, but there’s still a chance they miss. This is a performance befitting of a pretender and not a contender. Philip Rivers has hardly been pressured and for all the concerns about him throwing the ball short and getting yards after catch… well that’s what’s happening. Jonathan […]

UPDATED: Seahawks Abe Lucas back in at RT

The Seattle Seahawks are locked in a tight battle with the Indianapolis Colts at Lumen Field in a Week 15 contest that was supposed to be an easy game for the Hawks. Philip Rivers has the Colts offense moving the ball better than it should under the direction of a recently unretired quarterback in his […]

Seahawks vs. Colts, 1st half live discussion: The home stretch begins

Four games left to determine whether the Seattle Seahawks are a playoff team, an NFC West champion, and possibly a No. 1 seed. It would take one hell of a collapse to miss the postseason, but it’s always reassuring when the Seahawks win their way into a playoff berth. They are once again huge favorites […]

Robbie Ouzts a healthy scratch for Seahawks vs Colts

It’s almost time for the Seattle Seahawks to face off against the Indianapolis Colts and the recently unretired Philip Rivers in Week 15 NFL action at Lumen Field. The game carries important potential playoff seeding implications for the Seahawks, as they look to keep pace with the Los Angeles Rams in both the NFC West […]

Seahawks-Colts: JPG joins KMA Sports to preview the matchup

The Seattle Seahawks look to keep their strong 2025 season going Sunday afternoon at Lumen Field when they take on Philip Rivers and the Indianapolis Colts at Lumen Field.
