Bye week: Mostly unkind to Seahawks playoff outlook

It was the best of byes; it was the worst of byes.

The best? An extra week to celebrate a victory in Santa Clara, the win of the year, maybe the Seattle Seahawks’ biggest win since 2016 in New England; an extra week to get better; an extra week to get Tyler Lockett back to something like full health.

The worst? Thanks for nothing, National Football League members. None of the right teams won (well, almost none) in Week 11, and to add insult to injury recovery time, the league office flexed Seahawks-Eagles out of Sunday Night Football.
