- Strength of schedule: .514 (14th)
- Prime-time games: 6
After an opening few weeks that should not overwhelm Mike Macdonald’s crew, the schedule’s intensity abruptly ramps up. Starting in Week 4, the Seahawks play four out of five games against 2025 playoff teams, including a trip to Denver on a short week. The lone team Seattle plays during that stretch that isn’t coming off a postseason berth: the Chiefs, who are going to be eager to show the defending champs they’re still up to the challenge. A gauntlet awaits the ‘Hawks coming out of their Week 11 bye, too, with visits to the 49ers, Eagles (on a short week), Panthers and Rams — all playoff teams last season — to close out the regular season.
