Snap Reactions: Anthony Bradford keeps starting and the Seahawks keep winning

The Seattle Seahawks get to enjoy a couple extra days of rest during Christmas Week after their thrilling 38-37 overtime victory over the Los Angeles Rams on Thursday Night Football started Week 16 action that will be hard for the rest of the week’s slate to top.

The victory puts Seattle in first place in the NFC West, as well as the driver’s seat for the top overall seed in the NFC, in spite of calls off offseason, through training camp and for the first sixteen weeks of the regular season for the team to start someone, anyone, other than...

College Football Playoff prospect preview: Players to watch on Alabama, Oklahoma

As we all come down from the high of arguably the biggest win for the Seattle Seahawks in the post LOB era, an incredible football weekend continues with the second edition of the 12 team College Football Playoff.

While the Seahawks are preparing to go for their first division title since 2020 and their first top overall seed clinch since 2014, the scouting department is hard at work preparing for the NFL Draft.

Although this playoff is drawing more frustration than excitement due to the teams that are in (or not in), there’s still some fascinating players to keep an...

Seahawks pass rusher Derick Hall suspended by NFL

On Thursday Night Football on Amazon Prime the Seattle Seahawks defeated the Los Angeles Rams in an instant classic that will undoubtedly be in contention for game of the year when the 2025 NFL season concludes.

The win moved the Seahawks into sole possession of first place in the NFC West, as well as the top overall seed in the NFC with two games to go for Seattle in the regular season.

However, even though the Hawks have a pair of games left, it appears the team will be without linebacker Derick Hall for one of those games after Hall...

Jaxon Smith-Njigba has Seahawks single-season receptions record all to himself

Jaxon Smith-Njigba has Seahawks single-season receptions record all to himself

Amongst all the chaos after the Seattle Seahawks defeated the Los Angeles Rams was the fact that Jaxon Smith-Njigba is now the sole franchise record holder for most receptions in a season. Prior to the 2025 season, the record was a tie between wide receivers Tyler Lockett and Smith-Njigba who each had 100 receptions (Lockett in 2020, Smith-Njigba in 2024).

Last year there was a lot more attention to this record when Smith-Njigba was chasing it down. However, with Smith-Njigba’s monster 2025 season, many fans had their eyes set on a loftier goal. Even after a few quieter weeks (if...

Words Of Prey, Seahawks-Rams II: Chaos. A beautiful, improbable climax of chaos

Words Of Prey, Seahawks-Rams II: Chaos. A beautiful, improbable climax of chaos

Where do you even start?

At the end? Sure, but you can’t tell this happy ending without the dark-magic two-point conversions.

With a fourth-quarter comeback straight out of the Improbability Drive? Maybe. But you can’t tell the story of how the Seattle Seahawks defeated the Los Angeles Rams on Thursday Night Football in Week 16 and totally leave out everything they did to lose it in the first three and a half quarters.

From the perspective of the game-winning drive? Maybe.

When a game has everything, you can’t retell this victory without the role players, the redemption stories, the bounces...

How the Seattle Seahawks set all kinds of history in win over Rams

How the Seattle Seahawks set all kinds of history in win over Rams

Wow wow wow wow wow.

The Seattle Seahawks set, broke, tied, invented, etc. all kinds of NFL records in an unbelievable 38-37 win over the Los Angeles Rams.

We’ll start with the one that was near unavoidable – they talked about this on the broadcast for almost the entire fourth quarter. But that was the first 4th-quarter Seattle comeback of this magnitude.

If at first you don’t succeed, 173rd time’s the charm!

But there were many more, and some much more interesting, records.

Teams with as many successful-looking stats as the Rams had essentially never lost a game like that....

Post-Snap Reads 12/19: Everything happens in Seahawks win over the Rams

In Today’s Links: many things have and more will be said about last night’s Seattle Seahawks victory over the Los Angeles Rams. Before we dive into the links, let me say something right quick: Coach Macdonald is a very good coach and he is going to get better. His players love playing for him, his coaches follow him and listen to him, and they seem to believe in him, no matter the obstacles and challenges that they face during any given game. Our squad needs to clean up some things, and they also won, and they are also still literally...

Why Zach Charbonnet’s controversial two-point conversion was the right call

Why Zach Charbonnet’s controversial two-point conversion was the right call

In the span of a couple of minutes, the Seattle Seahawks were able to turn a 30-14 deficit in the fourth quarter to a 30-30 tie against the Los Angeles Rams. While the winning two-point conversion was ultimately made in overtime by Eric Saubert, the most talked about two-point play was undoubtedly running back Zach Charbonnet’s heads up recovery of this deflected screen pass throw by Sam Darnold.

As the teams were ready for kickoff and a 30-28 Rams lead, referee Brad Allen said that the play was under review. Replay showed a clear backwards pass from Darnold, with a...

Winners and Losers from the Seahawks’ monumental comeback vs. Rams

Winners and Losers from the Seahawks’ monumental comeback vs. Rams

Did all of that just happen? On the surface, the Seattle Seahawks beating the Los Angeles Rams was far from a crazy thought. Even winning in a shootout, however unlikely, didn’t seem far-fetched. To win a game down 30-14 with under 10 minutes left and then still have to rally from a touchdown deficit in overtime to grab first place in the NFC West (and the NFC as a whole)? To quote former child star Dickie Roberts, that is “nucking futs.”

Winners and Losers time after the Seahawks’ remarkable, improbable, [stupendous 38-37 comeback over the Rams to grab control of...

Ted’s Talk: The Seahawks are SO back… to unbelievable home prime time wins!

I’m still trying to process what happened, so here’s a good recap.

And that doesn’t even include the weirdest two point conversion you’ll ever see!

I’m jumping ahead of myself here, but there’s so much to cover!

The game started off on the right foot, with a big defensive stop followed by a quick scoring drive for the Seahawks. Just a few minutes into this huge contest against the Los Angeles Rams, the Seattle Seahawks led 7-0 in those hideous rivalry jerseys that I hope never see the light of day again. After that, it was mostly a steamrolling by...

Seahawks pull off largest 4th quarter comeback in franchise history

Seahawks pull off largest 4th quarter comeback in franchise history

Can you win the game in the fourth quarter?!! Well, the Seattle Seahawks technically didn’t, because they needed overtime to beat the Los Angeles Rams.

After falling behind 30-14, Sam Darnold threw what looked to be a game-clinching interception to Kobie Turner. That should’ve been a wrap given the Seahawks hadn’t forced a punt all night on defense and the offense was mostly on the struggle bus again.

Rashid Shaheed’s 58-yard punt return touchdown sparked what is the greatest 4th quarter comeback in Seattle’s 50 seasons of existence.

An A.J. Barner touchdown, followed by the craziest two-point conversion ever, and...

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.

NFL changed regular season overtime rules in 2025
