Seattle Seahawks face slump following loss to Denver Broncos

The defending Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks have fallen to a 3-3 record following a 17-14 overtime loss to the Denver Broncos. This marks the team's second consecutive defeat and their third loss in four games, a significant decline compared to their 14-3 championship season in 2025.

National media power rankings have reacted to the slump, with outlets like NFL.com and Bleacher Report dropping the Seahawks in their standings. Analysts point to critical issues with ball security and pass protection, noting that the team has committed 12 turnovers, the third-most in the league.

Looking ahead to Week 7, the Seahawks face a high-stakes matchup against the undefeated Kansas City Chiefs. The game features a notable storyline involving former Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III, who is currently leading the NFL in rushing yards for the Chiefs. To bolster their offense, some analysts suggest the team should target veteran tight end Dallas Goedert from the Philadelphia Eagles ahead of the trade deadline.
