Terry Bradshaw is at it again! Never shy to voice his unfiltered thoughts, the Hall of Famer had some biting words in store for the NFC West’s top team. And as you’d expect, his comments have raised some eyebrows.
This time, he didn’t just stop at calling out the team—he went after their RB Kenneth Walker. “It’s too late in the season for Kenneth Walker. I am surprised that the Seahawks are still in first place,” Bradshaw quipped. The comment sparked a mix of laughter and outrage among the 12s, especially after the Seahawks’ crucial but sloppy 26-21 win over the Jets.

Terry Bradshaw is such a #Seahawks hater:

Well, Bradshaw wasn’t wrong about Walker. The RB rushed 16 times for just 49 yards, averaging only 2.6 yards per touch. Walker’s highlight was a 27-yard run that was eventually nullified by a holding penalty. Brutal! And his season records don’t paint a better picture either.
Walker has had a challenging season in terms of rushing efficiency. His 3.8 yards per attempt ranks him 46th in the league, highlighting his struggles to find consistent gains on the ground. To make things worse, with 493 rushing yards, he sits at the 32nd spot, simply reflecting limited opportunities and production. Despite this, Walker has found the end zone with 7 touchdowns, ranking him 11th in the league. That seems to be the only bright spot in his season stats. However, against the Jets, the Seahawks managed to turn things around.
The Seahawks proved Bradshaw wrong in the end

The Jets had a dream opening. They were leading by 0-14 heading into the 2nd quarter. Kick returner Kene Nwangwu, making his first appearance with the Jets after being picked from their practice squad, took a kickoff return 99 yards for a touchdown. Yeah! You heard that right, 99 yards! This gave the Jets a 7-21 lead early in the second quarter. But what was to follow would leave Woody scratching his head.
A tight 3rd quarter saw no points being scored on either side. The Jets were still leading by 16-21 into the last quarter, but they simply failed to keep the momentum. Myers‘ 43-yard field goal took the Seahawks to 19-21, cutting the deficit down to 2 points. Charbonnet followed it with a game-winning touchdown. Although the highlight of the game was Leonard “Big Cat” Williams.
Big Cat’s record 92-yard pick-six against Rodgers in the 2nd quarter was something of a spectacle. Following the heroics on the field, Big Cat even took a dig at Rodgers’ age, “I think he’s an older guy, doesn’t want to take big hits like that anymore.” While Rodgers continues to struggle, the Seahawks are now topping the NFC West at 7-5. And with Arizona on deck, Walker needs to buckle up.
