In their 49-year history, the Seahawks have been held to seven points or fewer 75 times. Only once have they won — Thursday night.

The Seattle Seahawks survived the Chicago Bears on Thursday, winning their Week 17 contest 6-3. The victory improved the Seahawks to 9-7 and kept their postseason dreams alive. Notably, what the result signified was far more telling than the on-field action, which was the lowest-scoring NFL game this season.

Coby Bryant seals a win on the last play for the 2nd time in a month, and Seattle stays in the playoff race by escaping Chicago.

Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald was honest when discussing a potentially high stakes Week 18 matchup with the Rams.

During the fourth quarter, running back Kenneth Walker III exited the game with an ankle injury. Walker was listed as DOUBTFUL to return, and ultimately did not set foot on the field again. This was Walker’s first game back after missing the last two in what has become a frustrating and injury-laden season.

At times, the Seahawks on a short Christmas week were just trying to get through it. They stayed in playoff contention.

Regardless of whether or not the Seattle Seahawks make the playoffs, there is one major in-season accomplishment that I believe is worth spotlighting given the expectations of first-year head coach Mike Macdonald.

The Seattle Seahawks dropped another tough game on Sunday, losing 27-24 to the Minnesota Vikings. The defeat was once again incredibly costly, as the Seahawks are on the verge of being eliminated from the playoffs.
