Seahawks vs. Bears: Caleb Williams faces toughest test yet in Seattle defense

November 2, 2026

The Chicago Bears arrive in Seattle for a high-stakes Monday Night Football showdown against the Seattle Seahawks, a defense that has re-emerged as one of the NFL’s most formidable units. After defeating the previously unbeaten Kansas City Chiefs, the Seahawks look poised to extend their winning streak, but will face their toughest challenge of the season.

The Bears, meanwhile, are riding momentum with Caleb Williams leading a resurgent offense. Since returning from injury, Williams has guided Chicago to two straight victories, elevating their record to 5-2 and establishing them as a top-tier offensive force.

His performance—marked by career-high completion rates (71%) and passing yards per attempt (8.2)—has been nothing short of dominant, with five touchdown passes and minimal turnovers in recent starts. Despite a conservative approach with short throws averaging just 7.0 yards in depth, Williams has generated explosive plays at the third-highest rate in the league (10.7%), a testament to the Bears’ offensive firepower.

The stage is set for a clash of titans, as Seattle’s stout defense looks to contain an offense that has been unstoppable when Williams is at his best.
