It’s been a long time since the Seahawks’ previous finish in the divisional cellar

Last.

With Sunday’s humiliating defeat to the Chicago Bears, the Seattle Seahawks are going to end the 2021 season at the very bottom of the NFC West. They haven’t done that since divisional realignment in 2002, and their only other bottom-dwelling season in the NFC West came way back in the team’s inaugural season in 1976.

As for the Seahawks’ previous last place finish? Exactly 25 years ago.

The quarterback you see in the main image of this article is former Heisman Trophy winner Gino Torretta, who came in off the bench for Seattle’s 1996 regular season finale against the Oakland Raiders.
