The Seattle Seahawks aren’t enjoying this week, however their playoff probabilities simply took one other hit whereas idle.
Each the San Francisco 49ers and Arizona Cardinals gained their respective video games over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and New York Jets. Whereas Arizona crushed Aaron Rodgers and firm by a rating of 31-6, giving them three straight house wins with out permitting a landing, the 49ers have been perilously shut to a different blown lead.
Kicker Jake Moody missed three discipline objectives in his return from damage, whereas the protection penalized their method into letting Baker Mayfield have an opportunity at a late go-ahead landing. Even with all the penalties and this insane 4th down escape by Mayfield with Nick Bosa grabbing his arm, Tampa Bay might solely tie the sport at 20-20 with below a minute to go. Brock Purdy simply marched into discipline objective vary, giving Moody an opportunity to go from goat to hero…
That’s one strategy to get Deebo Samuel to not be mad at you anymore.

Seahawks Playoff Chance Getting into Week 10
The New York Occasions/Athletic mannequin had the Seahawks at a measly 4%. I’m certain it’ll both not change or lower following Sunday’s outcomes.
It doesn’t take a genius to determine that if the Seahawks come away 0-2 in opposition to the 49ers and Cardinals over the following two weeks, it’s over, and the group ought to realize it’s over and begin to have a look at who ought to and shouldn’t be on the staff subsequent season. This would come with gamers, coaches, and sure, the entrance workplace, which might have overseen two seemingly last-place finishes in 4 years and one playoff win in eight.
