Seahawks vs. Panthers: All you need to know for Week 17

The Seattle Seahawks (12-3) are just two wins away (or a win and some help) from winning the NFC West for the first time since 2020. Their opponents, the Carolina Panthers, are a win and a Tampa Bay Buccaneers loss away from winning the NFC South for the first time since 2015, when they reached […]

Seahawks announce Week 17 game captains vs. Carolina Panthers

On Friday, the Seattle Seahawks announced their selection of Week 17 game captains ahead of Sunday’s matchup vs. the Carolina Panthers. This week’s captains are running back Kenneth Walker III, nose tackle Jarran Reed, and linebacker Drake Thomas.

Jay Harbaugh should be a contender for NFL Assistant Coach of the Year

What a difference a year makes. The Seattle Seahawks didn’t have a bad special teams unit last season under coordinator Jay Harbaugh; they even ranked 10th by FTN’s DVOA. But it was an often ruinous group with return specialists who were so game-damaging bad that they were let go in the same week after combining […]

Weren’t the new Seahawks offensive coaches supposed to fix the run game?

Following a 2024 season in which the run game of the Seattle Seahawks was non-existent for the majority of the year, head coach Mike Macdonald immediately moved on from offensive coordinator Ryan Grubb. Along with firing Grubb, the Seahawks allowed several other members of the offensive coaching staff to depart for other opportunities elsewhere, including […]

Seahawks GM John Schneider unofficial frontrunner for Executive of the Year

John Schneider has never won the NFL’s Executive of the Year award. On the strength of 12-3 and a consecutive successful quarterback flip, he has finally landed himself on the short list of favorites. Nearly every NFL team weighed in this week about their thoughts as to who is most likely to win various awards, […]

Seahawks All-22 film review: The good and bad from Seattle’s epic comeback vs. LA Rams

The Seattle Seahawks’ win over the Los ANgeles Rams felt like two very different football games stitched together by halftime adjustments. The first half was sloppy, reactive, and at times frustrating on both sides of the ball. The second half, however, showed a team that corrected structural issues, leaned into schematic advantages, and played with […]

Without typical stats, Devon Witherspoon playing like NFL’s best corner

The Seattle Seahawks lay claim to arguably the best defense in the NFL this year. There are those with gaudy numbers, like Ernest Jones’ 5 INTs as a linebacker, or Nick Emmanwori with…a bunch of everything. But the strength of this defense is on its cohesion, and it’s largely built on the backs of those […]
