The Seattle Seahawks and Chicago Bears are playing live on the NFL preseason schedule on Friday for Week 3 and the game is live from CenturyLink Field and is one of the top games of the week and it starts at 10 pm ET on NFL Network and is streaming live online and on the radio as Richard Sherman and the Legion of Boom host Da Bears in an NFC matchup.
The Seahawks are Super Bowl champions and they are looking to keep things going at home after dominating against the Chargers last week. The team lost its first preseason game on the road against the Denver Broncos and they now have the chance to get another win after taking the victory against San Diego. The team has their last game on the road against the Oakland Raiders and then they open the season at home against the Green Bay Packers.
The Seahawks were the best team in football last season and ended up winning the Super Bowl and now they will not be able to sneak up on anyone. The Seahawks have the best defense in the league and they are coming in with a top ranked running game as well. Russell Wilson should only get better as time goes on and he also has Percy Harvin fully healthy for this season. The offense should be better than last year and that is a scary thought for a team this good on D.
The Bears come into the game after winning their first two preseason games and while those don't usually mean much, it's good for Chicago to get things going after missing the playoffs last season. The team won both its home games at Soldier Field and now plays on the road against the Seahawks and the Cleveland Browns. The team offense was amazing last season, but they are trying to improve on defense and that has been the priority for Marc Trestman.
The Bears have a tough schedule to start the season, as they have a stretch of five road games in seven weeks and four road matchups in five weeks, but their schedule is a bit easier in the second half. The team opens with Buffalo at home and then plays against the 49ers and Jets on the road. The team returns home to play a division game against the Packers and then is on the road again for the Panthers and Falcons, while Miami at home is next before the Patriots on the road heading into the bye week.
The Seahawks have an early bye and that comes after the team plays against the Pacers and Chargers before matching up with the Denver Broncos at home. After the bye week the team has three road games in four weeks, including matchups with the Redskins, Rams and Panthers, while the Dallas Cowboys are the lone home game in that stretch.
