The Detroit Lions gave the Dallas Cowboys 44 reasons to start thinking about the offseason, winning 44-30 on Thursday Night Football to send Brian Schottenheimer’s team to 6-6-1 and with less than a 10 percent chance to make the playoffs. Detroit has effectively saved itself by improving to 8-5, albeit unable to get into a playoff spot no matter what happens in Week 14.

What the Detroit Lions win means for the Seattle Seahawks

As was discussed earlier in the week, the Seahawks could’ve clinched a playoff berth as soon as Week 15 if certain results broke their way....

The Seattle Seahawks now have two open roster spots on the 53-man roster.

On Thursday, Seattle waived defensive tackle Quinton Bohanna. This is notable as the Seahawks designated Julian Love, Dareke Young, and Jarran Reed to return to practice ahead of the Week 14 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. Seattle also designated rookie defensive tackle, Rylie Mills to return to practice last week.

Once these players are designated to return to practice, they have 21 days to practice with the team before having to either be added to the 53-man roster or be shut down for the rest of the...

The Seattle Seahawks starting right guard Anthony Bradford has seen his share of criticism this season, and many figured he was benched last week against the Minnesota Vikings only to realize that he had an elbow injury. Now, we can add a calf injury to the mix, which cropped up in practice on Thursday, causing him to be a limited participant. If Bradford can’t play in Week 14 against the Atlanta Falcons, it would likely be Christian Haynes filling in once again. Is that actually an improvement, though?

In positive injury news, both AJ Barner and Ty Okada practiced fully...

For the second month in a row, the Seattle Seahawks have a player named player of the month.

In October, Jaxon Smith-Njigba received the NFC offensive honors. For November, kicker Jason Myers has received the NFC Special Teams Player of the Month honors.

At first glance this may be surprising to some Seahawks fans considering the missed field goal by Myers against the Los Angeles Rams. However, that was a 61-yard field goal, definitely not a chip shot. And even more important, Myers has been rock solid all year, especially in November.

Throughout November, Myers led the NFL with 15...

Is this perhaps a playoff elimination game in the NFC?

The Dallas Cowboys have won three in a row to get to 6-5-1 and still have a shot at the playoffs, whether through the Wild Card or the NFC East title. It’s a different story for the Detroit Lions, who might be 7-5 but are third behind the Chicago Bears and Green Bay Packers, having been swept by the latter. Their return to the playoffs hinges heavily upon winning not just tonight’s game, but also next week against the Los Angeles Rams, as well as home versus the Pittsburgh Steelers...

The Seattle Seahawks are getting healthier, having designated safety Julian Love, defensive tackle Jarran Reed, and wide receiver/returner Dareke Young for return to practice on Wednesday. All of these players have spent at least the past month on injured reserve, and will have 21 days from Wednesday to go from IR to the active roster or else their season is over.

Seattle has already brought Robbie Ouzts and Christian Haynes back from IR, which is an important thing to note when you consider how many players they currently have on some injury list:

Seattle Seahawks on injured reserve who are...

The Pro Football Hall of Fame’s Class of 2026 will not include former Seattle Seahawks head coach Mike Holmgren.

Coach Holmgren was not advanced as a finalist for the Hall of Fame in the Coach wing. This comes as zero surprise given this was Bill Belichick’s first year of eligibility, so he’s about as much of a lock for Canton as you can possibly get.

Unfortunately, last year felt like a golden chance for Holmgren to make the Hall of Fame. He was announced as a finalist, only to not hit the minimum 80 percent vote from the Selection Committee...

The Seattle Seahawks let go of veteran nose tackle Johnathan Hankins on Wednesday. Hankins had not played all season while on the non-football injury (NFI) list with a back issue and was confirmed by head coach Mike Macdonald as not coming back this season.

As part of Hankins’ departure, the 12-year veteran received an injury settlement. Since we’re past the trade deadline, any player who is let go is subject to waivers. Obviously if Hankins isn’t going to be ready to play this year, it’s more than likely he’ll go unclaimed and be an unrestricted free agent.

Hankins signed with...

The Seattle Seahawks’ first injury report for their Week 14 game with the Atlanta Falcons is long but a bit deceiving in terms of severity.

A fitting 13 players were listed for Wednesday’s practice as either limited, full, or a non-participant. Leonard Williams was the lone DNP, but he’s been given a veteran rest day. Ernest Jones and Jaxon Smith-Njigba were limited while considered resting players, whereas Drew Lock was limited due to a personal matter.

Of the three players designated for return to practice while on injured reserve, only Julian Love was a limited participant due to his hamstring...

As usual, we lead with the confidence question. How confident are you in the direction of the Seahawks franchise? It’s been in the 90+ percent for almost the entire season, and I can’t imagine a 26-0 shutout win in which the Seahawks pulled even with the Los Angeles Rams in the NFC West race is going to...
