The Seattle Seahawks have emerged as one of the best teams in the NFL here in 2025, and they are in a position to make the playoffs this year after finishing 10-7 last year and being on the outside. The biggest move this team made in the offseason was swapping Geno Smith for Sam Darnold.
Smith has been one of the three worst starting QBs in the NFL this year, and Darnold has continued to play well after a breakout campaign in 2024 with the Minnesota Vikings. With five games remaining, Seattle might truly have to win out to capture the NFC West title, but another win or two likely gets them into the playoffs.
