Sam Darnold over ½ Interceptions

1:00 PM ET. We’re not asking for the moon here — we’re asking Sam Darnold to be Sam Darnold. One lame duck. One YOLO ball into triple coverage. One cross-body fever dream while rolling left and trying to “make a play.” Darnold cleared this number last week while barely clearing 120 passing yards, and now he walks into a matchup against a Seattle unit that’s top-three in scoring defense, top-two against the run, and absolutely built to force desperation throws. With Drake London out again and Atlanta likely chasing the game, the passing volume may not be high — but the leverage situations will be. 3rd and long. Behind schedule. Crowd groaning. Highlight producers licking their lips. The script writes itself.

Seattle isn’t just stopping drives — they’re finishing them. They sacked and intercepted Minnesota four times each in their 26-0 shutout, and now they get an Atlanta offense that ranks near the bottom of the league in explosive plays without Penix. Add a returning Julian Love to the secondary and a defensive front that wins first contact consistently, and the windows shrink fast. Darnold is a rhythm quarterback without rhythm, against a defense designed to suffocate rhythm. We're betting that the Dirty Birds can catch at least one loaf of bread.
