The Chicago Bears rolled into Lumen Field and handed our Seahawks a brutal 34-17 loss in Week 9, a gut punch that felt even worse with Justin Boone’s latest fantasy football trade value charts just dropping. The verdict on our quarterback, Sam Darnold? His rest-of-season 1QB trade value is a shocking single point.

Darnold’s Dismal Ranking: The Numbers Don’t Lie

Seriously, a single point. That’s the cold, hard reality reflected in Boone’s expert rest-of-season QB trade values. Darnold clocks in at a dismal 21st overall in the 1QB format, and even in a 2QB league, his value only creeps up to 28. This isn’t just about fantasy managers making moves, this is a reflection of current perception. When your starting quarterback’s value is scraping the bottom like that, it’s a tough pill to swallow for anyone bleeding green and blue.

That Bears Game: The Score That Stings

And honestly, after watching the Chicago Bears dominate us 34-17, it’s hard to argue with the sentiment. That Week 9 matchup was a tough one, plain and simple. We needed more, and the outcome, combined with this latest valuation, paints a pretty clear picture of where things stand right now.

So, where do we go from here? Week 9 is in the books, the trade values are out, and it’s clear we have work to do. We’re a fan base that demands passion and performance, and our Hawks have to deliver. Let’s hope for a better showing and a shift in that perception as the regular season continues.
