The Seattle Seahawks beat the previously undefeated Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday Night Football on October 25, 2026, handing the 5-0 Chiefs their first loss. The discussion has moved from the result to the scale of Kansas City's collapse: 213 total yards, 11 first downs, no red-zone trips for the first time in Mahomes' career, a career-low 165 passing yards, and the first team in NFL history with no 10-yard rushes, no 20-yard pass plays, no red-zone plays, no touchdowns and multiple misses. Andy Reid took full responsibility and said the Chiefs struggled in all three phases, while a leaked story about Josh Simmons and Collinsworth's read that the Chiefs' spirit looked broken in the fourth quarter keep the focus…

    Breaks down Seattle's 20-3 win over Kansas City, crediting the Seahawks defense for keeping the Chiefs out of the red zone all night and holding Mahomes in check. It adds the scoreline and the streak the loss extends, then turns to Xavier Worthy's route running and JSN's separation.

    Recaps Darnold's interception and JSN's rescue
    Recaps Seattle's win over Kansas City and stays inside the result: Darnold's end-of-half interception, JSN bailing him out, and a long riff on receiver archetypes. The one stat it leans on, Walker's 185 yards, is a number the card does not carry, but the segment is reaction, not reporting.
