Simmons, Williams and Swift Carry Bears to Impressive 34-17 Win over the Seahawks in Primetime

On Monday, the Chicago Bears defeated the Seattle Seahawks 34-17 in Seattle, with quarterback Caleb Williams leading an efficient offense and running back D'Andre Swift scoring three goal-line touchdowns.
Acquired last week from Tennessee, defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons made an immediate impact in his first game as a Bear. Pacing the defense with 6 tackles and 1.0 sack, teammates called him "a multiplier."
Williams completed 24 of 34 passes for 247 yards and a touchdown, posting a 101.0 passer rating. He became the first player this season to surpass 200 yards against Seattle's defense.
Seattle quarterback Sam Darnold threw for 188 yards with two touchdowns and an interception as the Seahawks fell to 4-4. The loss marked their largest margin of defeat since a 30-13 loss to Green Bay in 2024.
Now 6-2, Chicago sits half a game behind the NFC North-leading Minnesota Vikings and hosts the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday night. The Bears have established themselves as serious playoff contenders after consecutive wins against defending Super Bowl teams.
