Winners, losers as Bears make statement vs. Seahawks on Monday Night Football
The Chicago Bears delivered a decisive statement on Monday Night Football, defeating the defending Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks 34–17 in a game that exposed key storylines. Quarterback Caleb Williams led the charge with a standout performance, completing 24 of 34 passes for 247 yards and a touchdown, while running back D’Andre Swift added three rushing scores.
The Bears’ offensive line and receivers, including Luther Burden III and Colston Loveland, each with seven catches, provided crucial support, setting the tone early with a 17-play opening drive. Meanwhile, Seattle’s offense struggled, with quarterback Sam Darnold managing just 188 yards, two touchdowns, and an interception on 17 of 34 attempts, failing to replicate his Super Bowl-winning form from last season.
The Bears now sit at 6–2, while Seattle drops to 4–4 in their bid for a repeat title, with special teams errors further widening the gap as Jason Myers missed two key scoring opportunities early in the game.
