Attempting to ID the 2022 version of the Seattle Seahawks
By Max Downard
Quite a while back, I wrote an article outlining some of my bold predictions for the 2022/23 NFL season. One of these bold predictions was that the Seahawks has the potential to sneak into the playoffs if they could find a way to win at least 9 games.
With the struggles of the Los Angeles Rams, San Francisco 49ers, and Arizona Cardinals, 9 wins look like a number that could maybe get us in, but this is incredibly hard to gauge considering the roller coaster of performances the Seahawks have produced thus far.
It seems as though the Seahawks have not quite found their identity yet. I don’t believe that this means we are a team desperately searching for an identity, but to make the playoffs, having a clear identity is important.
What is the identity of the 2022 version of the Seattle Seahawks?
After 4 games and a 2-2 start, I believe I have pinpointed what this team is. That being said, I have a pretty good idea of what this team is not as well. In this article, I am going to explain exactly what I mean and reassess my bold predictions for the season.
While one of the predictions I made already looks quite comical and has already been proved wrong, I think the playoff prediction may have some merit.
But, of course, to fully enter the conversation of being a playoff team, the Seattle Seahawks need to go into every Sunday knowing exactly who they are.
