Tale of the Tape: Seahawks Face Depleted Commanders

Superstition creeps into the minds of many passionate fans. They tell themselves not to look past the upcoming opponent. They retreat to “any given Sunday” coaching tropes. All of those instincts come from the experience of seeing their favorite team fall to a lesser foe. It is painful. It...

The Morning After: Seahawks Play Below Their Standard

Mike Macdonald wants to run it forward. The 2026 Seahawks may want to practice doing that on the field if they hope to do it this season. No matter the caveats one can offer about preseason football, this 17-7 loss the Dallas Cowboys was a performance that was below...

The Morning After: Seahawks Grind Cardinals To Dust In Desert

One of two things happens to teams after they win a championship. Some become self-satisfied and splinter into individuals chasing notoriety and fortune.

Tale of the Tape: Dark Side Faces Arizona Sun

Both Seattle and Arizona enter this game 1-0 and atop the NFC West. One team will suffer their first loss on Sunday, and while the odds point to that being the Cardinals, these teams are more closely matched than they were a season ago. An injured Sam Darnold and...

The Morning After: Seahawks Intro New Owners Old Ways, Win 13-10

The day started with sunny skies, flashy custom Seahawks gear, and easy smiles. It ended under the lights, with toes tapping, and breathless victory. The smiles disappeared after an injury knocked Sam Darnold out of the game following the first drive, and the team fell behind by 10 points....

The Morning After: Injuries Tarnish Inspired Performance Versus Titans

Irony has many faces. It can be playful. It can be thought-provoking. It can be cruel. Each made an appearance on the first Sunday football game of the Seahawks 2026 season. Tennessee Titans defensive tackle, Jeffrey Simmons, loudly boasted about his team’s performance in the joint practice with the...

The Morning After: Seahawks Leave No Doubt, Lift Lombardi

Perfection is often a mirage. People chase it in their appearance, their careers, their relationships. It forever evades them. They think they have what they want until they see someone else with more or better. True perfection usually is fleeting. It is the sunset with a loved one, your...
