Although some of the games were leaked out at various points throughout the day, most of the schedule was revealed in a massive three-hour spectacle on ESPN and the NFL Network.

As always, the Seahawks play their three division rivals both home and away. The Seahawks are also paired with the NFC North and the AFC North this year, meaning that they all of the teams in those two division.

The other two games are based on the results from the 2014 season. Since the Seahawks won the division, they will play the other two division winners from the AFC. That means games against Carolina and Dallas.

As you can see, the Seahawks were given five prime time games this year. It is slightly surprising that two of them are at home. The NFL has said that the Seahawks are too dominant at home, and they do not want their prime time games to end in blowouts.

Because of the division that the NFC West is paired with, as well as the first-place schedule, the Seahawks have one of the toughest schedules in the NFL next season. The 2015 season is certainly going to be a challenging one for the Seahawks as they try and get back to the Super Bowl once again.
