Seahawks Win Against the Bears

Seahawks Win Against the Bears

After Thursday night’s loss by the Chicago Bears, the boo birds made their voices heard clearly at Soldier Field. The Bears fell short in Thursday Night Football’s defensive battle against the Seahawks, 6-3, on a cold and rainy night in Illinois.

Rookie quarterback Caleb Williams took the offense from Chicago to the Seattle 40-yard line, where they needed a field goal to send the game into OT. On fourth down, the Bears needed a field goal from Williams to stay in the game, but his effort was unsuccessful. The victory for the Seahawks was sealed when cornerback Tariq Woolen intercepted the pass from the 23-year-old first-round selection after he was struck while throwing.

Williams broke the record for the longest rookie interception streak in NFL history with his first pick after 354 throws.

Even though the offense was severely lacking, both teams’ defenses kept the game close. With a fifteen percent probability of making the playoffs, according to sports betting picks experts, the Seahawks are still in the NFC playoff hunt thanks in large part to the seven sacks that Williams took.

With 67 sacks this season, Williams may indicate that Chicago needs to upgrade its offensive line. David Carr, a quarterback for the Houston Texans in 2002, had 76 sacks, the highest ever in NFL history. While Chicago supporters were shouting “sell the team,” Smith, the Seattle signal-caller, said on the Amazon Prime broadcast that the key is winning, regardless of the means.
