The Seattle Seahawks are preparing to host the Chicago Bears in Week 8's edition of Monday Night Football.
The Seahawks and Bears have played each other 20 times over the course of their franchises' histories, with Seattle winning 12 of those meetings. The Seahawks beat the Bears 6-3 when the two teams last met in Week 17 of the 2024 season at Soldier Field in Chicago.
The Seahawks are fresh off of a dominant performance against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 7 while the Bears picked up a big win against the New England Patriots in Thursday Night Football last week.
