What our analysts say

Sally's take

Peppers & Picks ranks Seahawks D/ST (SEA DST), our DST1 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season vs CHI, projecting 4.5 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Sally's angle is simple: he's a top-three DST on our board, and she never benches the guys who win weeks. Facing CHI in front of his own crowd, the script reads neutral to friendly, not scary. He's still in 78% of lineups at 93% rostered, which is exactly the trap I'm trying to talk you out of. Mild heat, high rank: reliable points without the fireworks.

Tina's take

Peppers & Picks ranks Seahawks D/ST (SEA DST), our DST1 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season vs CHI, projecting 4.5 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Tina plays contrarian — with 78% start rate he's priced in, and she cares more about his floor than his name. The vs CHI draw matters here — home snaps against CHI shape how often he's asked to do something. He's still in 78% of lineups at 93% rostered, which is exactly the trap I'm trying to talk you out of. Mild heat, high rank: reliable points without the fireworks.
