Bears vs. Seahawks Game Thread: Week 8, 2026

Taking Seattle, and I'm doing it from the recliner with a basket of wings in my lap. The Seahawks give up 125 points all season against 143 for Chicago, and they just smothered Kansas City 20-3, which is exactly the kind of defense I live for. Chicago got shoved around 31-7 at Green Bay in Week 5, and Lumen Field is where Seattle is 3-1. If you can't stop the run, you can't win, and I trust the guys who keep the other team's scoreboard quiet.

I picked Seattle and I was wrong, so I'm launching a remote across the room. Chicago won 34-17 at Lumen Field and ran for 126 yards to Seattle's 81, which is why the Seahawks are 4-4 and the Bears are 6-2 with three straight wins. If you can't stop the run, you can't win, and my recliner is taking the blame for this one with wing sauce all over my jersey.
