The NFL Week 7 madness is in full swing, and while the league is seeing some wild swings, your Seattle Seahawks are gearing up for a huge primetime showdown against the Kansas City Chiefs later today. The AFC East is already shaping up to be a brawl, with the New England Patriots getting clipped 30-24 by the Chicago Bears on Thursday. That loss drags the Pats down to 4-3, putting them a full 1.5 games behind the Buffalo Bills, who are chilling on their bye week, probably enjoying the Western New York sunshine.
AFC North Spices Up, Plus Early Kickoffs
Across the pond, the Pittsburgh Steelers put in work, beating the New Orleans Saints 16-10 in northern Paris. Forty-two-year-old quarterback Aaron Rodgers is leading those Steelers to a 5-2 record now, and yeah, they are definitely “angling for a postseason run” as the league gets interesting. Is everyone really clamoring for more international games though? Seriously. Anyway, back stateside, the early 1 p.m. ET slate had some interesting matchups for us to keep an eye on, especially if you were scouting potential future opponents. We had the Baltimore Ravens battling the Cincinnati Bengals, though Lamar Jackson was out for that one. The Houston Texans kicked off against the New York Giants, with J.J. McCarthy getting the start for the G-Men. The Minnesota Vikings took on the Indianapolis Colts, and the New York Jets faced off against the Miami Dolphins. And get this: the Cleveland Browns are in first place after their game against the Tennessee Titans! Wild. Plus, the Atlanta Falcons went up against the San Francisco 49ers, which was probably a dream for all you running back fantasy fanatics, and the Carolina Panthers played the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Later Action and Primetime Battle
The afternoon kept things rolling with the Arizona Cardinals playing the Denver Broncos, and honestly, we all just want to see some offense from those two, right? Then came the 4:25 p.m. ET games, with the Detroit Lions facing the Green Bay Packers, big “No, Pack, No” energy there! And we had the Las Vegas Raiders taking on the Los Angeles Rams in what they called the “LasLos Bowl,” and wouldn’t it have been fun if the Raiders actually pulled that one off?
But let’s be real, Seattle, all of that was just the appetizer. The main event for us is still to come. Your Seattle Seahawks are squaring off against the Kansas City Chiefs in primetime action later today. This is it. This is the game everyone is waiting for, and we are locked in. Get ready, Emerald City. It’s time to show the league what our Seahawks are all about. Every snap counts, and you know we’ll be watching every single play of this primetime clash. Let’s go Hawks!
