Bears vs. Seahawks live score, results, highlights from NFL 'Monday Night Football'

JUMP TO: 

Week 9’s “Monday Night Football” matchup is a possible playoff preview between two teams with Super Bowl aspirations.

The Seattle Seahawks picked up a huge win last week over the Kansas City Chiefs, with their dominant defense leading the way and showing why they were the best last year. While Sam Darnold’s turnover issues continued, his performance was much better as he tries to rebound from a slow start.

More notably, though, is that the Seahawks acquired guard Quenton Nelson from the Indianapolis Colts during the week. Nelson has been one of the best offensive linemen since he entered the NFL in 2018, and his addition should be a major upgrade for the interior of Seattle’s offensive line.

Meanwhile, the Chicago Bears appear to be finding their groove following a huge win over the New England Patriots last week. Caleb Williams has picked up where he left off when he missed time with a hamstring injury, as the Bears offense continues to be explosive and effective.

Like Seattle, Chicago made a huge trade, adding Jeff Simmons from the Tennessee Titans in a major move to upgrade the defense. Simmons is a dominant force on the interior defensive line who has a chance to transform the unit down the stretch of the season.

Both teams not only have the playoffs on their mind, but they also believe they can win their division for the second straight season. They represent the top two seeds in the NFC from last year’s playoffs, but the Bears lost in the playoffs before they could meet in January.

Bears vs. Seahawks results, highlights from NFL ‘Monday Night Football’

All times Eastern

Second quarter

8:55 p.m.: FIELD GOAL! Jason Myers cans from short-range to get the Seahawks on the board.

Bears 7, Seahawks 3

End of first quarter: Bears 7, Seahawks 0

8:50 p.m.: Another Smith-Njigba screen takes the Seahawks on the cusp of Chicago’s goal line.

8:47 p.m.: Jaxon Smith-Njigba turns a screen pass into a 20-yard gain, slipping past would-be tacklers before creeping comfortably inside Chicago territory.

8:40 p.m.: Darnold appeared to take a late shot to the head/neck area after sliding short of the sticks on third down. However, Chicago avoids the flag. Looked a dubious no-call in real-time. Seattle will send the ball back to the Bears, hoping Chicago doesn’t add to its advantage.

8:36 p.m.: Simmons bursts through the mire to record his first sack with Chicago. Unfortunately, it was followed up by a facemask call against one of his teammates. Still, the ease by which he got to Darnold should excite those of a Bears disposition.

8:30 p.m.: TOUCHDOWN! Chicago strikes first, with Williams finding Luther Burden III to open the scoring. Wondrous opening drive for Johnson’s team, which amassed 80 yards in 17 plays and nearly nine minutes before hitting pay dirt.

Bears 7, Seahawks 0

8:20 p.m.: Well, that was quick. Three plays and the Seahawks are already off the field. Let’s see what the Bears offense has in store for us today.

8:15 p.m.: And we’re off! Seattle starts the game with the ball in its grasp.

Pre-game

8:00 p.m.: Here’s our first look at Nelson in Seahawks threads. He’ll look to keep Darnold upright against a talented Chicago bunch.

7:30 p.m.: Tonight’s matchup represents something of a grudge match. Under Ben Johnson’s tutelage, the Bears have emerged as one of the league’s highest-octane offenses, averaging 30.25 points in games Williams has started this year. Seattle, meanwhile, concedes just 17.9 points per contest, the third-lowest mark in the league. We’ll see who wins out when the final horn sounds.

7:00 p.m.: Williams is outfitted in his signature all-black cleats. The Cadix logo looks to appear prominently on the all-black number. After all of his fines, it’s unclear whether that will remain the case come kickoff.

6:30 p.m.: While there are numerous stars set to take the stage at Lumen Field on Monday, few will garner as much attention as Caleb Williams and Sam Darnold. Expect plenty of interest in how these two sidewinders look tonight.

6:00 p.m.: Tonight’s contest pits a pair of longtime former AFC South standouts against one another. Former Colts All-Pro guard Quenton Nelson will make his Seahawks debut against recent Bears acquisition (and former Titans man) Jeffery Simmons.
