The Seattle Seahawks are gearing up for a challenging season as they aim to repeat as Super Bowl champions. With a schedule ranked third toughest in the league, they will face significant hurdles. Starting from Week 4, the Seahawks have a demanding stretch where they will play four out of five games against teams that made the playoffs the previous season, including a tough matchup against the Denver Broncos on a short week. Overall, 10 of their 17 games will be against last year's playoff teams, excluding the Washington Commanders and Kansas City Chiefs. The Seahawks will kick off their season on September 9 with a rematch against the New England Patriots at Lumen Field. Despite the tough schedule, the Seahawks are coming off a successful 14-3 season and are well-equipped to handle the pressure of defending their title, making them a formidable contender this year.
