New story: The Seahawks’ biggest game of the season is also the biggest of the Mike Macdonald era.

This game against the Rams is like looking in the mirror. This is the type of team the Seahawks gotta get thru to prove they are who they think they are. www.nytimes.com/athletic/680...

New story: On one of the league’s best defenses, playing alongside several standout talents, Seahawks rookie DB Nick Emmanwori is starting to shine.

The most encouraging part: He may only be scratching the surface in Mike Macdonald’s defense. www.nytimes.com/athletic/679...

New story: As the difference between contenders and pretenders becomes clearer each week, the Seahawks are earning the right to call themselves elite -- and they may be getting better.

New story: The Seahawks are now light on 2026 draft capital in exchange for an improved offense in 2025. John Schneider once again saw a window & is attempting to capitalize.

The NFC is up for grabs. It's understandable for Seattle to be thinking big. www.nytimes.com/athletic/677...

New story: The Seahawks already have one of the NFL's best offenses, led by Sam Darnold and JSN.

Now they're adding WR Rashid Shaheed ahead of the trade deadline, giving up a pair of picks. John Schneider moving and shaking, per usual. www.nytimes.com/athletic/677...

New story: The Seahawks put it all on display in a prime-time beatdown: Sam Darnold’s sharpness, JSN’s smoothness, the defense’s dominance.

The Seahawks are for real. That’s a fact. And they’re hungry for more.

New story: The #Seahawks should be buyers ahead of the trade deadline. GM John Schneider has a history of making things shake this time of year.

But good help is hard to find these days. Looking around the league, is there anyone worthwhile available? www.nytimes.com/athletic/675...
Trade deadline options: Seahawks should be buyers, even if a big deal seems unlikely
Seahawks GM John Schneider usually doesn't make big trades without an urgent need, but that doesn't mean he'll sit out this year.

New story: The Seahawks have a dominant defense, led by one of the best fronts in the league. Big reason why Seattle is 5-2 entering the bye week.

The best part for Seattle: Reinforcements are on the way. www.nytimes.com/athletic/673...
The Seahawks’ defense is already dominating. Now, reinforcements are on the way
The Seahawks enter their bye week with a top-five defense. They should come out of it at full strength for the first time since Week 1.

October 22, 2025 at 7:39 PM
New story: The Seahawks want to prove themselves right every week. Thus far, they’ve proven 2 things.

1. JSN is currently the NFL’s best receiver

2. Mike Macdonald once again has an elite defense.

And they’re still not satisfied

“We can be better.” www.nytimes.com/athletic/673...

New story, from Jaxonville:

A silent EverBank Stadium. “SEA-HAWKS” chants in the tunnel. An MVP declaration. A new WR1 crowned.

Mike Macdonald’s team did again away from home.
