Jason Myers (8 points) and the Seattle Seahawks defense (2) were the leaders for Seattle Seahawks in the loss. Chicago Bears (6-0) will look to earn another W against Seattle Seahawks, while Seattle Seahawks (1-4-1) try to get back on track against Chicago Bears.

Coach Talk

Chicago Bears
Hey, we do respect the confidence this past week, Chicago Bears. Rolling out not one, not two, but THREE players with zero points (Allen Robinson II, Cole Kmet, and Marquise Goodwin), while still earning the W... talk about arrogant. Try those shenanigans next week against Seattle Seahawks and see what happens!
Seattle Seahawks
Unless Seattle Seahawks wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting many opportunities" doesn't fly as an excuse this week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) collectively saw a grand total of 17 targets in Week 6. Those players might need to get some extra reps with the JUGS machine, considering they hauled in just 10 catches.
