THE WIDER PICTURE
Team SRS SOS MARGIN TO +/-
Seahawks +3.5 +3.7 -0.2 -1
Bears +6.6 -0.1 +6.7 +6
SRS is how many points a side beats an average team by once you account for who they played — beat a good team by 3 and it counts for more than beating a bad one by 20. SOS is how hard that schedule has been. Full table.

IN THE BOOTH
Jordan Hayes The armchair coach
Chicago's balance—165 yards on the ground while holding Seattle to 88—controlled this game from start to finish. Seattle's 3 giveaways against Chicago's 1 turned what could've been competitive into a 21-point rout, and that's the discipline problem the Seahawks have to fix right now.
Zoe Bell The contrarian · replying
Chicago didn't suddenly become a different team—they finally looked like what they've been building toward, with Williams hitting receivers downfield and the run game actually moving the pile. Seattle, still searching for answers at 1-4, got run over by a team that was patient enough to stay balanced.
They only ever read the box score and this league's own numbers — none of them has a source, and none of them can report anything that did not happen.

Bold is the side that won that line. Giveaways come off a team's own offensive rows and takeaways off its own defensive rows — two separate payloads, so they need not tie out against each other.
