After tossing his seventh interception of the season (tying the NFL lead), Darnold broke down the Seahawks' huddle in the visiting locker room at Empower Field at Mile High, telling his teammates he knows he must be better.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Darnold tied NFL lead with 7 INTs; 20 total turnovers plague Seahawks' title defense.

Darnold threw his seventh interception of the season (tying the NFL lead) in a 17-14 loss to Denver on Thursday night, including two picks in the game with the second in overtime setting up the game-winning field goal. He has led the league with 20 turnovers in the 2025 regular season (14 interceptions and six lost fumbles), though he flipped the switch in the playoffs with three turnover-free games. His repeated turnovers have become a critical liability for Seattle's championship defense, which can no longer overcome his mistakes as easily as they did last season.
