written by Priya Shah – Business Editor

SEATTLE – One year after arriving in a trade with the Los Angeles Rams, linebacker Ernest Jones IV has become a pivotal force for the Seattle Seahawks‘ defense, transforming the unit with his playmaking ability and leadership.

the Seahawks acquired Jones on March 15, 2023, and his impact has‍ been immediate and significant. His ability to excel in both run and pass defense, coupled with his commanding presence, has elevated the performance⁢ of those around him and solidified his role as an anchor for the team. This acquisition addresses a ⁣critical need for a‌ versatile and impactful linebacker, and ‍his continued development is central to Seattle’s defensive aspirations.

“He’s playing some very high-level football‌ at the moment,” defensive coordinator Aden Durde said. “he’s controlling and running our defense, and that’s what we need.”

Jones ⁢credits his success to the support of his teammates and coaching staff.”D-line,‍ bunch of killers up front and then Coach Mike does a good job of putting me in ‌position to make plays.I credit it all to Mike and my D-line, man. They make it easy on me and I⁤ just go out there⁤ and have⁤ to go make the plays.”

Head coach mike Macdonald’s philosophy of designing plays to highlight player strengths has been ⁣instrumental in Jones’s flourishing.”Calling plays⁢ for players… ‍you’re trying to put people in position rather ⁣than get them out of the way,” Macdonald explained.

Jones has embraced the chance to showcase his all-around skillset. “That’s been the biggest thing for me. I think my first three years in the league, four ‍years‌ in the league, people always wanted ‌to classify me as just the run stopper, but I’m a ball player.You put‌ that ball anywhere, I’m going to get it.Coverage, run the ball. It’s just what I do. I play ‌football.”

Macdonald emphasized ‍Jones’s importance as a defensive anchor. “You need someone in the middle of your defense to be an anchor, patrol the middle of the paint, make plays in the run and the pass game, and he’s doing that. Then you add his mentality, his toughness, and leadership, it’s ⁣made a difference for‌ us.”

the impact of Jones’s addition to the Seahawks ⁣defense is undeniable, marking a meaningful return on investment one year⁣ after the trade.

NFL⁣ Week 6: Quarterbacks To‍ Start
NFL Week 6:‍ Running Backs To‌ Start

Seattle, WA – October 15, 2025 – As the NFL ‌season hits its midpoint, fantasy football managers are navigating a landscape of injuries and bye weeks, demanding shrewd waiver wire pickups ⁢and strategic starting lineup decisions. week 6 presents opportunities ‌to capitalize on emerging talent and favorable matchups, possibly turning the tide in league standings. Several players are poised for breakout ‌performances, offering meaningful value for fantasy⁤ owners.

This‍ week’s start/sit advice⁤ focuses on identifying players with advantageous situations and recent production, notably at the running back position where ⁢injuries have created openings for previously overlooked options. Beyond⁤ immediate replacements, identifying⁣ players with long-term‍ potential, like a rising tight end,⁢ is crucial for sustained fantasy success.‌

NFL⁣ Week 6: Quarterbacks To‍ Start

STREAMING Geno Smith: the Seahawks quarterback continues to be a solid streaming option,particularly in favorable ⁢matchups. Let’s not forget the breakout tight end, AJ Barner, either, as he is covered in this article. don’t let him sit on the free agent list any longer.

NFL Week 6:‍ Running Backs To‌ Start

START ⁢Rico Dowdle: ⁢Chuba Hubbard is ⁤out for Carolina again this week, and⁤ Dowdle stepped in ⁣as a terrific replacement last week. The former cowboy blazed ⁤for a career-best 206⁤ yards and a TD in a win over the ⁣Miami Dolphins. Dowdle proved to be a winning⁢ pickup off the waiver wire⁣ last week, and in NFL Week 6, he will‌ face his former team as Dallas⁤ visits Carolina. The Cowboys rank 28th in Fantasy Points Per⁣ Game allowed to RBs.

START Tony Pollard: The Tennessee ‍offense should start improving at some point soon, and it could be this week against the Raiders. Las Vegas has allowed the second-most‍ rushing TDs‍ to RBs (seven).The Titans have actually allowed the most rushing TDs to rbs (eight) so we⁤ should see‍ good‌ play from both Ashton Jeanty⁤ and Pollard in this game. Pollard has rushed for two TDs⁢ in his last three games.

START Rhamondre stevenson: The Patriots lost Antonio ⁣Gibson for the season and rookie TreVeyon Henderson should start to make his presence known more soon. ⁤Stevenson will still have a role in the New England‍ offense, though, especially as the ideal guy⁣ to get the tough yards. Stevenson⁤ rushed for two TDs last week, and the Patriots should move the ball into scoring position at least ‌a⁢ few times ‍vs.⁣ New Orleans. He’s a viable plug-in play⁤ for ⁤Week 6.

START Kareem Hunt: The RBs listed here this week are mostly replacement types and streamers. That’s as many fantasy players need injury or bye week replacements⁣ in their RB2 or flex ‍spots, even with just two⁢ teams ⁢on a bye. ⁢You’re ⁢not going to⁣ sit⁣ RBs‍ who get regular work,such as Javonte williams‍ or‌ Breece Hall,or quality temporary starters such‍ as Dowdle or Rachaad White. Hunt, though, is a good lineup fill-in⁢ for TD potential.

Last week, Hunt ‍rushed for two TDs and he has rushed for three TDs in his⁤ last three.The Chiefs are‍ actually at 2-3 ⁣heading into Week 6 and will likely get involved in a shootout with the ‍Lions in a strong effort to get back to.500.Hunt should get some chances to punch in TDs from close scoring range.

written by Alex Carter - Sports Editor

In a stunning overtime thriller, the ⁤Green Bay packers and Dallas Cowboys⁢ battled to a 40-40 tie⁢ at Lambeau Field. The game featured multiple lead changes, late-game ⁢heroics, and a clutch ⁤field ‌goal‍ as time expired to send the contest into extra time.

This tie marks a rare outcome in the NFL, with critically important implications for both teams’ ⁣playoff aspirations. A tie benefits neither team in the standings as much as‍ a win ⁢would, adding pressure to their remaining games. The Cowboys (3-3) and Packers (2-3-1) will both need to perform consistently in the second half of the season to secure⁢ a postseason berth.

Early in the game, a ‌controversial facemask penalty called on Packers defensive lineman Karl Brooks during a third-and-5 ‍play extended a Cowboys drive, ‌ultimately leading to ⁣a touchdown. Dallas running back Rico ‌Dowdle later‌ scored ‍on a 1-yard direct snap, ‍putting the Cowboys ahead 30-27 with 4:46 remaining.

The Packers responded with a ⁢strong drive,converting ⁢eight ‌of ten third downs throughout the game.wide receiver Romeo‌ Doubs secured his third touchdown of the ‍game on‌ a 15-yard pass from⁢ Jordan ⁣Love, giving Green Bay a 34-30 lead ‌with 1:49 left.

Though, the Cowboys quickly answered. KaVontae Turpin returned the ensuing kickoff 46 yards, setting up a 28-yard touchdown pass to CeeDee Lamb, regaining the ‌lead 37-34 with just 43 ⁢seconds remaining.

Facing a desperate situation, the Packers drove downfield, aided by a 25-yard reception by Aaron Jones and a ⁤key catch by Malik Heath. With only four seconds left, ⁤Jordan Love threw an incomplete pass, but a subsequent 53-yard field‍ goal by Brandon McManus as time expired tied the game at 37-37, forcing overtime.

in ⁤overtime, ⁢neither team could secure a game-winning drive, resulting in the final score of ⁢40-40. The game saw significant contributions⁣ from both offenses, with⁢ Jones rushing for substantial yardage and love connecting with ‍Doubs and Heath for crucial receptions. Packers safety Rudy Ford was evaluated ⁣for a concussion during the game.

The⁣ Cowboys converted‍ a third-and-3 with ‌a 19-yard ⁤pass to jalen Tolbert. A late ‍unneeded roughness penalty called ⁣on Cowboys linebacker Marist Liufau against Packers receiver Christian Watson also proved pivotal, extending a⁣ Green Bay ⁣drive.

Josh Jacobs Eyes NFL Record Streak in Packers’ Cleveland Game

packers’ ‍Josh Jacobs ⁤Eyes Historic Touchdown‌ Streak Against Browns

GREEN BAY, WI⁤ – Green⁣ Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs has the possibility to achieve a feat not seen in over six decades,⁣ entering Sunday’s matchup against the ⁢Cleveland Browns needing just one rushing touchdown to match a 61-year-old NFL record.Jacobs has scored in 13 consecutive ‍games, amassing 16 rushing touchdowns⁢ over that span – a run⁢ second‍ only to Pro‍ Football Hall of Famer⁢ Jim Taylor, who had 16 touchdowns in a 10-game stretch from‌ October 14 to December 16, 1962.

The streak began during a 20-19 win over the Chicago Bears in Week ⁤11 and included multiple standout performances, notably a ⁣pair of ⁣three-touchdown games against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 12 and at the⁢ Detroit Lions in Week 14. ⁣Should Jacobs find ⁢the end zone against Cleveland,‍ he will⁤ tie LaDainian ‍Tomlinson for the ‍longest streak of consecutive games with a ⁣rushing touchdown in NFL history.

“The guy just creates plays,” said offensive coordinator Adam Stenavich. “He’s just got a knack for finding the⁢ seam, getting‍ in the end zone. It’s⁣ just a big confidence boost when you get down inside the 5-yard line, give him the ball a couple times and you got a touchdown.”

Jacobs’ recent‌ success was ⁤on ⁣full display ‍in the Packers’ 27-18 victory over the Washington Commanders, where⁢ he powered through⁢ linebacker frankie Luvu for ⁤a 2-yard touchdown. ⁢That score marked his 15th during the current 11-game streak and his 12th‍ from inside the 4-yard line.

“Having‌ a guy like that helps you out,” right guard Sean ⁣Rhyan said.”We’re juiced up, just gonna try to get all our backs some light and hopefully keep that streak going for⁢ him.”

While Jacobs has previously generated 223 total yards in two games‌ against ‌the Browns, he has yet to score a rushing touchdown against⁤ them – one of only ⁤eight teams ⁢he’s faced multiple times without‌ finding the end zone. despite the potential to‍ tie tomlinson’s record, Jacobs remains focused on the team’s overall goal.

“He’s one guy that I looked up to⁣ growing ⁤up playing this running back position, so it’s definitely a‌ great honor,” Jacobs said. “But, man, I don’t really too much dig into it or look into it. I’m more concerned with wins ‌and losses.” ⁤the Packers are currently ‌seeking their ‌first road win of the season.
