The Seahawks' run defense has held the Bears to 58 rushing yards on 22 carries, 2.6 per carry, with 4:51 left in the third quarter. Linebacker Ernest Jones IV leads all players with 13 tackles. Still. Chicago leads 20-9.

2019 Draft, round one: Pick 19: Tennessee takes Jeffery Simmons, two months after he tore his ACL.
 Pick 26: Washington trades up for Montez Sweat. Seven picks apart, and seven-plus years later the two Mississippi State guys are back on the same D-line. In Chicago. Both got home on Darnold tonight.
Bears DL Jeffery Simmons and Edge Montez Sweat each have a sack tonight against Seattle. It's the first time they've both had one in the same game since Jan. 1, 2019, when they were Mississippi State teammates and lost the Outback Bowl to Iowa 27-22. They did it five times together at Mississippi State, in 2017 and 2018.

The Bears just traded for Jeffery Simmons. Two firsts (2027, 2028) and a 2027 fourth go to Tennessee. Simmons and a 2028 fifth come to Chicago. Here's who the Bears are getting: 🧵

Per @TomPelissero: Justin Tucker went 30-for-30 in a Chiefs workout Tuesday. Kansas City signed him to its practice squad Wednesday. Harrison Butker remains on the active roster. His 2026 Numbers: • FG: 11/16 (68.8%) • 50-plus: 2/6 • PAT: 14/15 Butker missed from 58 and 45 yards in the 20-3 loss at Seattle. He has missed 15 kicks since the start of the 2025 season. Tucker has not kicked in an NFL game since 2024. He has already served his 10-week suspension for violating the league's Personal Conduct Policy, and he is eligible Sunday at Denver.

The Ravens have been a tale of two halves this season. Second half and overtime: - 51 points scored - 114 allowed (most in the NFL) First half: - 118 points scored (most in the NFL) - 53 allowed Lamar Jackson has missed three straight games with a high ankle sprain. Ravens head coach Jesse Minter on his status for Sunday's game at Buffalo: "We'll know a lot more on Wednesday."

Per @AdamSchefter: The Colts are trading G Quenton Nelson to the Seahawks. Indianapolis receives a 2027 third-round pick and a 2028 fifth-round pick. Nelson, the No. 6 pick in 2018: eight-time Pro Bowler. First-team All-Pro in each of his first three seasons. The defending Super Bowl champions, Seattle Seahawks (4-3) continue making moves to attempt to repeat. Nelson's first game with Seattle could come Monday, Nov. 2, vs. the Bears.

The trade addresses one of the Seahawks weakest unit, which has given up 16 sacks and averages 3.9 YPC.

The 49ers outgained the Falcons 400-295 and still lost their first game of the season, 29-20. Turnovers: SF 4, ATL 0. Purdy: 27/40, 288, 1 TD, 2 INT
Penix: 25/34, 213, 3 TD, 0 INT Purdy threw 2 INTs in his first six games combined. He matched that Sunday in Atlanta. Penix and the crew capitalized on the mistakes and won.

Caleb Williams over his last two games: 52/69, 613 yds, 3 TD, 0 INT. The Bears have won both and are 5-2. • Wk 6 at ATL: 30/36, 305, 1 TD, 0 INT
• Wk 7 vs NE: 22/33, 308, 2 TD, 0 INT It's the first time a Bears QB has thrown for 300+ in back-to-back games since Mitchell Trubisky in 2018. Trubisky did it in three straight: • Wk 4 vs TB: 354
• Wk 6 at MIA: 316
• Wk 7 vs NE: 333 Eight seasons later, Caleb gets his shot at three straight next week.

Ashton Jeanty: 8 carries, 15 yds. Also 8 catches for 61 yds and a TD. The Raiders are now using him more as a receiver than as a runner to get him more involved in the game. Through Week 6 he’s had 3.19 ypc on 98 carries.

Marvin Harrison Jr. (Texans Debut Thoughts) 12 snaps. 4 targets. 3 catches, 34 yards. Every catch moved the chains. • Half his snaps were run blocks. On a slot stalk block and a goal-line rep, he drove his man out of the play. A+ Effort. • (Q2 6:14, Q3 12:59) Smooth underneath. He beat his man on a shallow cross and settled into a soft spot in the zone on a dig. • (Q3 10:52) Houston trusted him already: 3rd & 2 in the red zone, and he moved the sticks. • On a deep post route, he got behind his man but wasn't targeted. Stroud took the check down and moved the chains. At the very least, it showed there was potential for a bigger day. • (Q2 5:47) He didn't separate on a curl, and Jarrian Jones drove on it for the PBU. It wasn't a lot to give a true evaluation, but he showed he's willing and ready to do his job one week in. C.J. Stroud said, "It felt like old times… we'll get him more touches and more plays here in the season." "Felt like old times" has a real chance to blossom into something. I'm truly rooting for the guy to succeed.
Marvin Harrison Jr. every snap in Texans debut.

Jahmyr Gibbs is a volume back for sure, but against Carolina, I’m not super confident. Weeks 2/3 the Panthers held Bijan Robinson to 16 carries, 72 yards and 0 TDs and Quinshon Judkins 18 carries, 70 yards and 0 TDs. Absolutely no one would fault you for thinking he’d still have a big game… it’s Gibbs of course… just gonna be a heck of a matchup. #NFL
