Seahawks Postgame: Brian Fleury, Goldilocks Sam and the Playoff Math

The Chicago Bears handed the Seattle Seahawks their worst loss of the Mike Macdonald era and left our Seahawks at 4-4 with one week to go before the bye. We start with an offensive line that was reshuffled on a week of prep, as Jeffery Simmons wrecked Grey Zabel at right guard in Quenton Nelson's debut. From there we get into Sam Darnold, who bailed from clean pockets, threw a late interception and overall looked uncomfortable behind his offensive line. Is it too soon to give up on offensive coordinator Brian Fleury, whose pace and red zone calls drew plenty of heat from the chat? We also talk through how Jaxon Smith-Njigba continues to carry the passing game, a run game that never got going, a B-minus defensive performance and the critical special teams mistakes. We step back to a short week against the Cardinals, look at the math on making the playoffs, and talk about why we would sign up for a rematch with Chicago in January.
