Mathematically speaking, the Seattle Seahawks defense in 2025 is not beautiful. You see, through four weeks of the 2025 season, the Seahawks are carrying two seemingly contradictory team defense stats. They should not coexist on the same team, and yet they do. Thus... headaches.
There have only been four games this season, so there’s a decent chance that one or both of these numbers are skewed by the small sample size.
