Twenty points. That’s what our Seattle Seahawks hung on the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday, shutting them down 20-3 in a statement Week 7 performance at Lumen Field. While everyone’s tracking fantasy numbers and league trends, that kind of dominant win against a team like Kansas City tells you everything you need to know about where our Hawks are headed this season.
Lumen Lit Up: Our Hawks Dominate
Forget the individual fantasy stats for a minute: a 20-3 final score against the Chiefs isn’t just a win, it’s a declaration. Our Seahawks brought the heat, silencing one of the league’s top offenses and proving they’re a force to be reckoned with this season. The energy from the 12s must have been absolutely electric, seeing our boys deliver that kind of performance. It wasn’t just a victory, it was a message sent to the rest of the NFC. After a performance like that, you know the locker room is buzzing, and the confidence is sky-high.
League-Wide Shoutouts: Fantasy Risers Making Noise
Beyond our Hawks’ massive win, Week 7 saw some real shifts in the fantasy landscape, with a few players making serious pushes. Zay Flowers, the Ravens’ No. 1 receiver, had a monster game, snagging eight of 11 targets for 137 yards and a touchdown. The dude is second in the league in yards per route run, right behind our very own Jaxon Smith-Njigba, and third in fantasy points per route run, also behind JSN. That’s high praise, but Jaxon is still our guy, the gold standard for YAC and overall production. Flowers is clearly on the come-up, and with Lamar Jackson reportedly close to a return, he’s looking at an elite second half.
Then there’s Bucky Irving, the Buccaneers running back. He had a feast with 23.5 fantasy points, rumbling for 106 yards and two touchdowns on 24 carries. This wasn’t a fluke either. He’s had 15 carries in six straight games, putting him in elite company with Jonathan Taylor and Derrick Henry for volume. We’d love to see him get more involved in the passing game, but in a shallow RB market, he’s a solid RB2. And Quinshon Judkins for the Browns, coming back from an ankle injury, put up his best fantasy day all season. He took 17 carries for 96 yards and two scores, after only scoring once before Sunday. He’s consistently getting touches, with 14 or more in every game, and this performance shows he’s got that high ceiling.
Week 7 showed us that things are always changing in the league, but for our Seahawks, that 20-3 win over Kansas City is the kind of performance that solidifies early season form and builds serious momentum. The 12s are going to be riding high on that one for a while, and it sets us up perfectly for what’s to come this season. Let’s keep that energy going, Emerald City!
