Looking at the 2025 schedule, the Seahawks have a similar stretch that could be decisive. It occurs much later in the season however. Assuming the Seahawks stay within striking distance of the NFC West division title, the Week 16 and 18 showdowns with the San Francisco and Los Angeles Rams could determine the division.

Now that we know the Seahawks' 2025 schedule, it’s time for our annual ranking of the matchups. Some loom as “must-see TV" while others are more “wait-and-see.”

It's not enough anymore for NFL teams to simply release a schedule of who they'll be playing in the upcoming season — the hype

Macdonald's defense will attempt to put pressure on Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy, who's expected to enter his first season as a starter in 2025. The Seahawks already ranked No. 10 in the NFL with 45 sacks last season and signed four-time Pro Bowl defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence in free agency.

With the Seahawks losing a previously crippling home-field advantage (they were 3-6 at Lumen Field in 2024), they’re trying to ensure that those who buy season-tickets are actually showing up for the games.

It seems a new way-too-early 2026 mock draft scenario from Sports Illustrated is predicting that's what will happen. SI has the Seahawks slated to pick at No. 14 overall, and they use it on Miami offensive tackle Francis Mauigoa with an eye on replacing oft-injured right tackle Abe Lucas.

The Seahawks end on the road again in the coming season. And their division games are more spread out than usual, starting week 1.
