Good luck, Bears or Rams in beating this Seahawks defense. 'MOB' group continues to rampage toward Super Bowl

Story byCharles McDonaldStaff writerSun, January 18, 2026 at 5:57 AM UTC·5 min readSeattle laid its claim for the NFL throne in the exact way it did during its dominant run toward the NFC’s No. 1 seed: by ferociously pummeling their opponent without mercy. The Seahawks’ offense had a productive, albeit somewhat ugly game Saturday night against the San Francisco 49ers, but Seattle’s defense (and special teams!) stole the show in this 41-6 divisional round wipeout. Now Seattle is a game away from getting back to the Super Bowl for the first time in over a decade.

Key Highlights

  • His prophetic words from last March about leaving Dallas for Seattle in free agency made a comeback on social media after the Seahawks’ emphatic win.
  • And they’re bound to have some staying power this coming week as the Seahawks prepare for the NFC title game.
  • But what else stuck out for Lawrence that symbolized this tenacious defense was the new necklace he sported postgame with the initials: MOB. Mission over bull****.“Yeah, brand new MOB necklace, man,” Lawrence said.
  • “You know, just letting the world know how we coming, you know.”AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementIn a league where offenses and quarterbacks are the stars of the show, Seattle has built a defense that’s just as compelling as the biggest, flashiest arms in the NFL and they showed that they’re absolutely good enough to ride to a title. Seattle didn't even let the 49ers get into the game, doing the same thing it did during the Week 18 regular-season finale when it stifled the 49ers’ running game, which subsequently forced Brock Purdy to be a dropback passer and throw into the teeth of an immovable defense.
  • This weekend, the Seahawks held the 49ers to 28 yards on 11 designed runs in the first half, and again forced the 49ers to play a style of football they don’t want to play. Seahawks safety Nick Emmanwori (3) reacts after recovering a fumble in Saturday night's blowout against the 49ers.
