The Seattle Seahawks managed to keep their playoff aspirations alive with a narrow victory over the Chicago Bears, defeating them 6-3 in a game that showcased both teams' struggles. This win marked the Seahawks' first triumph in three games, as they had previously lost two in a row. The game was characterized by strong defensive plays, particularly from Seattle, who recorded seven sacks, including two from Leonard Williams. The Bears, on the other hand, suffered their tenth consecutive defeat, a streak that continues to haunt the franchise.
Riq Woolen's late interception of Caleb Williams sealed the game for Seattle, thwarting Chicago's last attempt to tie or win. The Seahawks' offense was sluggish, with Geno Smith managing only 160 passing yards, but it was enough to secure the win. The team is now looking ahead to their next match against the Los Angeles Rams, hoping for a favorable outcome in the game between Arizona Cardinals and the Rams to keep their playoff hopes alive.
As for the Bears, their season has been marred by poor performances, and they are now facing the prospect of another disappointing end to the year. With their offense struggling to gain momentum and a defense that, while effective, cannot compensate for the lack of scoring, the team is left reflecting on what went wrong. The Bears' interim coach, Thomas Brown, has yet to secure a win since taking over, and the team must regroup quickly if they hope to end the season on a positive note.
