Your Seattle Seahawks just slammed the Kansas City Chiefs 20-3, a statement win that has to feel good for the 12s, especially with what’s brewing in the NFC East right now. Yeah, you read that right. While the Emerald City is buzzing after that huge W for our Hawks, two of our future NFC East opponents are about to wrap up Week 7 tonight on *Monday Night Football*, and it’s not pretty.
What in the Actual Heck is Happening in the NFC East?
Remember how enticing the Cowboys-Eagles matchup looked when the NFL schedule dropped? Normally, those two are good for some must-watch football. Well, nobody in their right mind predicted both these teams would be sitting at a pathetic 2-4 after six weeks. It’s a complete mess, especially for Philadelphia. By far their most frightening loss is quarterback Jalen Hurts, who’s out for the entire season thanks to blood clots. So yeah, it’s Tanner McKee’s team until further notice, and to make it even worse, he won’t have Devonta Smith or Dontayvion Wicks to throw to, though Saquon Barkley is back in the backfield.
Then there’s Brian Schottenheimer’s Dallas Cowboys. Their offense has completely fizzled these last two weeks, and they still haven’t grasped the idea that playing defense is, you know, a requirement to win games in the NFL. Honestly, at this point, how can anyone call the Cowboys a comfortable favorite over anybody until they prove otherwise? The NFC East is clearly weak, but the New York Giants are out here surprising everyone at a respectable 4-2-1. So yeah, a loss on Monday night for either the Cowboys or Eagles? That’s not just a bad day, that’s absolutely devastating for their season.
Why We’re Absolutely Dialed In on This Monday Night Mess
So why should we even care about this trainwreck happening tonight? Simple: your Hawks still have three games to play against the NFC East this season. We’re about to get a live look at what kind of challenge we might be facing. Are these teams truly this depleted, or can they somehow pull it together? Even with the World Series kicking ass right now, you know we’ll be keeping an eye on the Cowboys-Eagles clash. It kicks off at 5:15 pm PT on ESPN/ABC.
The vibe in the Emerald City is electric after that Chiefs win. Now we just watch the NFC East implode, and get ready for whatever version of these teams we face in our upcoming games against them. Let’s go Hawks!
