Predicting the Seattle Seahawks 2022 record
Ed Stein
Seahawks 2022 Prediction: 6-11
I know that’s the cover, the projected win total, but the Seattle Seahawks will surprise some teams this year. They have several skill players, such as D.K. Metcalf and Rashaad Penny, who can break the big one anytime. Additionally, their offensive line should be vastly improved by the end of the season as their rookie tackles develop.
This year’s defense doesn’t excite me, but they don’t scare me as much as they have. Sure, opposing QBs will take advantage of their inexperience, especially at cornerback, but the switch to a 3-4 set should help generate more pressure.
Pencil the Seattle Seahawks for a win in at least one division game. The NFC West is too competitive to think they go 0-6 against Los Angeles, Arizona, and San Francisco.
Seattle also beats Atlanta, Carolina, NY Jets, and pulls off a season-opening shocker over Denver. Those are all home games. I also give the Hawks a decent chance to beat Detroit on the road.

Seahawks 2022 Prediction: 6-11
The Seattle Seahawks play a last-place schedule. Head Coach Pete Carroll isn’t good at losing, and the Seahawks always outperform expectations under him.
They’re also bringing back a potent running game (at some point this season) with a grind-it-out and win the time-of-possession game on offense. That will hopefully give their fast defense time to rest between series and keep them fresh.
Happy #ThrowbackThursday!
