Seahawks Week 13 power rankings: Seattle firmly in top 5 after Titans win

Seahawks Week 13 power rankings: Seattle firmly in top 5 after Titans win

Last week, after the Seattle Seahawks lost to the league favorite, Los Angeles Rams, the Seahawks saw a dip in their national power rankings. Will a win over the Tennessee Titans be enough to move Seattle up, or the fact that it was only a one-possession win over the one-win Titans be enough to drop Seattle down?

Well, perhaps this author is a bit too strict on Seattle, because much to his surprise, all five national media sites polled (NFL.com, Pro Football Talk, Bleacher Report, ESPN, and CBS Sports) have moved the Seahawks up in their rankings. The surprise may...

Seahawks bringing back former Pro Bowl safety Quandre Diggs

A familiar face is back with the Seattle Seahawks.

The Seahawks are widely considered to be one of the better teams in the NFL this season, and roster depth has no doubt played a role in their ascension. Consider the fact that eight players at key positions have hit the IR in the past several weeks. Not to mention a slew of avifauna that hit that same list earlier this season. As well, several warriors from our squad are either questionable or doubtful for this Sunday’s tilt against the Minnesota Vikings back home in Seattle. Specifically, Minnesota-born safety Ty Okada,...

Seahawks could have 3 more players placed on injured reserve

The Seattle Seahawks came away with a road win over the Tennessee Titans as expected, but not without multiple injuries in which every player was ruled out by halftime.

Linebacker and special teams contributor Chazz Surratt, running back and kick returner George Holani, and backup safety Ty Okada all left Seattle’s 30-24 victory in the first half and did not return. Surratt was rolled up on and suffered a significant looking ankle injury while blocking on a kick return, Holani pulled his hamstring on a Seahawks punt return, and Okada grabbed his hip after making a tackle on Titans receiver...

Seahawks Snap Reactions: Grey Zabel goes the distance vs. Titans

Seahawks Snap Reactions: Grey Zabel goes the distance vs. Titans

One of the more impressive and encouraging things from the Seattle Seahawks’ 30-24 win over the Tennessee Titans was the mere fact that Grey Zabel even played. What looked to be a significant knee injury against the Los Angeles Rams turned out to be something minor, yet something that could’ve reasonably been construed as causing him to miss at least one game. After all, Zabel was limited in practice all week for the Titans game and listed as questionable.

Zabel played all 48 snaps without issue.

The first-round rookie left guard didn’t have to rotate with Christian Haynes or come...

Panthers at 49ers ‘Monday Night Football’ live discussion: Let’s go, Panthers!

Okay, so the Tampa Bay Buccaneers did less than nothing against the Los Angeles Rams and Baker Mayfield got hurt in the process. That stings for the NFC West race, which has the Rams in pole position while the Seattle Seahawks need to see LA stumble at least once more outside of their Week 16 rematch in Seattle.

There is reason to still believe the San Francisco 49ers are dangerous even with all of their defensive injuries. Ricky Pearsall is back, Brock Purdy is back, George Kittle has been back, and they’re 7-4 with a very easy schedule for the...

Four Down Territory: Seahawks beat Titans, play like a 5-seed

Coming off a frustrating defeat last week against the Los Angeles Rams, the Seattle Seahawks took a trip back east and took care of business in a 30-24 victory over hapless Tennessee Titans.

While the score doesn’t exactly tell the whole story of the game, it was a more competitive game than most fans would have thought, which was indicative of how the entire NFL felt on Sunday.

Sitting at 8-3, this is the best record the Seahawks have had after 11 games since the 2020 Seattle Seahawks. As Seattle continues a three game stretch against some brutal teams, we...

Seahawks next progression comes in the running back passing game

Seahawks next progression comes in the running back passing game

It’s time for the Seattle Seahawks to involve their running backs in the passing game.

No, no not like this:

If Klint Kubiak doesn’t run a trick play the rest of the season I’ll write him a thank you card.

I’m talking about a 100-yard game from Kenneth Walker. Just the third on the season, and for the first time he passed 100 yards in back-to-back games.

Neither of them came from rushing alone.

In addition to 71 yards on 11 carries, good for his second-best average of the season, Kenneth Walker had three receptions for 30 yards against the...

Struggling Vikings QB JJ McCarthy enters concussion protocol ahead of Seahawks game

Struggling Vikings QB JJ McCarthy enters concussion protocol ahead of Seahawks game

My, how the turntables have turned.

While Sam Darnold was out decidedly not throwing four interceptions, his replacement in Minnesota threw two of them, posted a 17.9 QBR and came home with a bad headache.

That’s right folks, JJ McCarthy has entered the NFL concussion protocol. Can he navigate this any better than he does opposing defenses?

To be fair, this is far more of a fun curiosity than it is meaningful to the upcoming game. Ousted last season by the first-round selection waiting in the wings, Sam Darnold has essentially played to the same level as 2024, if not...

NFL Week 13 odds: Seahawks favored in Sam Darnold’s revenge game against the Vikings

The final score of the Tennessee Titans and Seattle Seahawks game was much closer than expected against a 1-9 team (and maintained the streak of games between the two teams that were decided by just one possession). This didn’t seem to matter in the projection for the next game against the Vikings, and FanDuel Sportsbook projects the Seahawks as 9.5-point favorites.

The over/under is at 42.5, a number likely taking into account the difficult games of the “almost rookie” JJ McCarthy. The Seahawks’ defense has the potential to keep the Vikings’ QB in this series of bad games, even though...

Ted’s Talk: Seahawks don’t slam door on terrible Titans, still win

The 2025 Seattle Seahawks have been a very good team, seemingly standing on the precipice of breaking through to greatness. And yet, there are some clear flaws that could prove fatal later on this season if Seattle can’t get things corrected.

Seattle’s inability to close out games at times, regardless of the opposition, reared its ugly head once again in their 30-24 road victory against the Tennessee Titans. Seattle seemingly had the game in the bag, going ahead 23-3 in the third quarter. It looked like those games against the Washington Commanders and the second game against the Arizona Cardinals...

How John Schneider and Mike Macdonald crafted the NFL’s deepest roster

How John Schneider and Mike Macdonald crafted the NFL’s deepest roster

The Seattle Seahawks remain squarely in the mix for the No. 1 seed in the NFC, on the strength of top-5 units across the board; offense, defense, and special teams.

There’s a fourth category that often gets overlooked, but has equally contributed to Seattle’s success in a unique way.

That would be roster members number 40-70, also known as the bench, the practice squad, the “ready squad” as coach calls it – or in a word: depth. Besides being incredibly talented up top and at key positions, it’s not a stretch at all to say the Seahawks might be the...
