Four Down Territory: Seahawks shut door on Vikings, as NFC West door opens
It feels weird when a Seattle Seahawks shutout victory is not the biggest news in Seahawksland, it really was a big day for the future of this season. As Seattle dominated the lifeless Minnesota Vikings 26-0, they not only improved to 9-3, their best record this late into the season since starting 10-2 in 2019, […]
Mike Macdonald provides several key Seahawks injury updates, including on Julian Love
Seattle Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald kicked off his weekly press conference with a big smile, a relevant joke or two, let us know his one-year-old son is now walking (is that normal?) and then got to it: “Are we ready?” Informative, decisive, and succinct, Coach Mike spent nearly 20 minutes with the hungry scribes […]
How the Seattle Seahawks can clinch a playoff spot before the Rams rematch
The Seattle Seahawks are in strong position to make the playoffs. At 9-3 and tied for the best record in the NFC, it’d take one heck of a collapse over the final five weeks for Seattle to not return to the postseason for the first time since 2022. While the main focus is on winning […]
Are the Steelers already ‘badly’ losing the DK Metcalf trade?
While we’ve paid a lot of attention to the wholesale ineptitude of the Las Vegas Raiders following the Geno Smith trade and Pete Carroll hiring, we’ve not really looked too much at how former Seattle Seahawks star wide receiver DK Metcalf has fared with the Pittsburgh Steelers. I’m fully aware that Andrew Fillipponi is a […]
Pre-Snap Reads 12/2: The Anthony Bradford problem might be coming to a head
In Today’s Links: the odd and ugly shutout that was Sunday’s big win, continuing to run the football is working out well for our Seattle Seahawks, how the Vikings slowed a good ‘Hawks offense, Leonard Williams and his excellence, numbers of note from last Sunday’s win, multiple articles addressing our team’s chances of winning the […]
Giants vs. Patriots ‘Monday Night Football’ live discussion: A perfect 10 for the Pats?
Needless to say, we’re very far removed from those two Super Bowls between the New York Giants and New England Patriots. The Giants are 2-10 and have blown five double-digit 4th quarter leads this season, while the Patriots are… dammit, they’re 10-2 just two years removed from the end of the Bill Belichick era. How […]
Enemy Reaction 2025: Minnesota Vikings
The Seattle Seahawks had a somewhat unclean performance against a bottom-dwelling opponent for the second week in a row. However, unlike last week’s 30-24 win over the lowly Tennessee Titans, the Seahawks didn’t have to be sharp across the board to easily handle the Minnesota Vikings. While the offense sputtered at times, the defense was […]
Flurry of Seahawks make top 10 in first round of Pro Bowl voting results
The NFL Pro Bowl voting is open, and the first voting results have been released. Typically, Seattle Seahawks fans are accustomed to seeing Seahawks players disrespected with these voting results (just look at Leonard Williams not being a Pro Bowler in 2024). However, this year with a 9-3 record, that is not the case. As […]
Colts’ Sauce Gardner unlikely to play against Seattle Seahawks
Of the remaining games on the Seattle Seahawks schedule, one of the more intriguing ones is the Week 15 match-up against the Indianapolis Colts. With the game just two weeks away, Colts injury news starts to become noteworthy for the Seahawks. With that, there is some big injury news for Indy, and not for Daniel […]
Ted’s Talk: Seahawks hold Max Brosmer under 485 passing yards in shutout of Vikings
For context. Yeah, not quite Mooch! The Seattle Seahawks defense put a choke hold on Max Brosmer and the Minnesota Vikings the entire game en route to a 26-0 shutout, the first time the Vikings have been shut out since 2007. Brosmer finished 19/30 for 126 yards and 4 INTs, two of them reeled in […]
How the Vikings finally solved the Seahawks pass blocking
The Seattle Seahawks had no trouble on defense against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 13, even pitching the extremely rare NFL shutout. The offense was another story altogether. The Vikings figured something out on defense, getting to Sam Darnold in a way that no team had until today. The Seahawks have been one of the […]
NFL Week 14 betting odds: Seahawks heavy favorites on the road vs. Falcons
The Seattle Seahawks pitched a shutout at Lumen Field against the Minnesota Vikings in a 26-0 victory to get their record to 9-3. Their offense wasn’t great for most of the game, but the defense was DOMINANT. Next up is a trip south to face the 4-8 Atlanta Falcons. It’s another early kickoff on the […]
Post-Snap Reads 12/1: Seahawks defense, Jason Myers beat Vikings at home
In Today’s Links: it was an ugly win, no doubt. A Seattle Seahawks O-line that was leaking like a cracked vase ended up doing just well enough for the offense to move the ball into field gull, I mean field goal range time and again. Of course, the defense played masterfully and absolutely whomped on […]
Words of Prey, Seahawks vs. Vikings: Sam Darnold outsources his revenge game
A) Last year’s Minnesota Vikings quarterback is now with the Seattle Seahawks. B) We know revenge games are real. C) Seattle is currently good and Minnesota is, well, not. Ergo, when they faced off in Week 13, Sam Darnold would eat like it was Hours 69-72 of Thanksgiving while the Vikings chewed on their offseason […]
Winners and Losers from the Seahawks’ shutout win over the Vikings
You know the Seattle Seahawks put in a dominant defensive play when the offense can stay on the struggle bus all afternoon and it’s still a 26-0 win in the end. There was really no chance for the Minnesota Vikings from the minute Max Brosmer YOLO-flipped an early Christmas gift to Ernest Jones IV for […]
Mike Macdonald provides injury updates on Anthony Bradford, Josh Jobe
In a nutshell, Seattle Seahawks right guard Anthony Bradford exacerbated an elbow injury, leaves the game, and the O-line continued to stink up the joint, although they ran a bit better. CB Josh Jobe is taken out of the game as a precaution for a possible concussion, Riq Woolen takes his place; Riq ends up […]
Broncos vs. Commanders live discussion: Good luck, Dan Quinn
The feel-good story that was the 2024 Washington Commanders has turned into the “feels bad, man” story of the 2025 season. Jayden Daniels is out with an elbow injury suffered in the Seattle Seahawks game, although thankfully it’s not as serious as it looked. The defense is awful, the offense is struggling with and without […]
NFC Playoff Picture: Seattle Seahawks take full advantage of stunning Rams Week 13 loss
The Carolina Panthers are filled with former Seattle Seahawks from the roster to the coaching staff and the front office. Dave Canales’ group just pulled off a shocking upset over the Los Angeles Rams that has immediately raised the potential for Seattle to still win the NFC West. Bryce Young threw three touchdown passes, while […]
Instant reaction to the Seahawks’ shutout win over the Vikings
The Seattle Seahawks walked out of Sunday’s matchup against the Minnesota Vikings with one unmistakable storyline: Seattle’s defense has officially become one of the NFL’s most suffocating units. And tonight on The Hawks Eye, I’ll be going live with Field Gulls managing editor Mookie Alexander to break down another dominant performance from Mike Macdonald’s group—and […]
Seahawks-Vikings Score: Seahawks blank Vikings, pull even with Rams in NFC West race
The Seattle Seahawks (9-3) have pulled up alongside the Los Angeles Rams (9-3) in the NFC West race. After seeing the Rams lose a stunner to the Carolina Panthers, the Seahawks took care of business at home by shutting out the Minnesota Vikings (4-8) in a 26-0 romp. The scoreline is unfair to the Vikings […]
Seahawks vs. Vikings 2nd half live discussion: Ernest Jones is our hero
The Seattle Seahawks offense has been stinky. Sam Darnold has been sacked four times and lost a fumble. Anthony Bradford is fully engaged in optional blocking. Jaxon Smith-Njigba has one target and no catches. It’s a good thing the Seahawks defense is as elite as this Minnesota Vikings offense reeks. Max Brosmer has been victimized […]
Seahawks vs. Vikings 1st half live discussion: Close November with a bang
The Seattle Seahawks have one more throwback uniform game, and it’s this one against the Minnesota Vikings. Seattle is heavily favored to take care of the Vikings, who are 4-7 and are starting rookie quarterback Max Brosmer for the first time. Maybe Brosmer is Tony Romo 2.0, but it’s more likely that he’s not very […]
Quandre Diggs active as Seahawks secondary depth tested
Sunday afternoon at Lumen Field the Seattle Seahawks will look to record their ninth win of the season when they take on the Minnesota Vikings. A victory would help the Seahawks keep pace in the NFC West, as the Los Angeles Rams entered the week leading the division with a 9-2 record, while the 8-4 […]
NFL Week 13 early games live discussion, Seahawks playoff rooting guide
We’ve got ourselves a lighter NFL Sunday due to the games played on Thanksgiving Day and Black Friday, plus there’s still Monday Night Football to come. As such, the early game slate is just seven games despite no teams on a bye, but there are two games of importance to the Seattle Seahawks. On CBS, […]
Seahawks vs. Vikings: All you need to know for Week 13
The Seattle Seahawks (8-3) are looking to win the NFC West and possibly capture the No. 1 seed. Before they reach the toughest part of their schedule against the Indianapolis Colts and Los Angeles Rams, they first have to take care of the “easier” teams like the Minnesota Vikings (4-7), who have lost five out […]
