Seahawks - Team History
Seattle Seahawks, professional football team and one of five teams
in the Western Division of the American Football Conference (AFC)
of the National Football League (NFL). Under the league’s realignment
plan, which will take affect in 2002, the Seahawks will move into
the West Division of the National Football Conference (NFC). The Seahawks
played in the Kingdome in Seattle, Washington, from 1976 to 1999.
The stadium was demolished in early 2000, and the club adopted Husky
Stadium at the University of Washington as its home field while a
new stadium, scheduled to be completed in 2002, was constructed. The
team wears uniforms of blue, green, and silver.
The Seahawks
joined the NFL in 1976 when the league granted an expansion team
franchise to John Nordstrom, a Seattle department store owner. In
the club’s first season, quarterback Jim Zorn passed for more
than 2,500 yards and was named the league’s top offensive
rookie. Jack Patera was named coach of the year in 1978 after leading
the Seahawks to their first winning season. Zorn led the AFC in
passing yardage that year, and wide receiver Steve Largent notched
the first of his eight 1,000-yard seasons.
Former Buffalo
Bills and Los Angeles Rams head coach Chuck Knox was hired in 1983
to guide the Seahawks. Rookie running back Curt Warner led the AFC
in rushing that year, producing the first of his four 1,000-yard
seasons with the club. Quarterback Dave Krieg became one of the
league’s most efficient passers. The Seahawks earned their
first trip to the playoffs in 1983, defeating their first two opponents
before losing to the Los Angeles Raiders (now Oakland Raiders) in
the AFC Championship Game.
Knox’s
Seahawks collected a club-record 12 victories in 1984 but lost in
the second round of the playoffs. In 1986 Largent set an NFL record
by catching a pass in his 128th consecutive game, and a year later
he broke the record for most career receptions, surpassing Charlie
Joiner, who had totaled 750. The Seahawks won their first division
crown in 1988. The team struggled defensively, however, and lost
in the first round of the playoffs.
Largent retired
in 1989 as the most prolific wide receiver in professional football
history. He became only the second receiver, after Don Hutson, to
own career records in yards (13,089), receptions (819), and touchdowns
(100) all at the same time. (Jerry Rice now holds all three records.)
During the 1990s,
the Seahawks’ stars included wide receiver Brian Blades, running
back Chris Warren, and tackle Cortez Kennedy. The Seahawks stumbled,
however, posting five losing records in seven seasons from 1990
to 1996. After adding talented new players such as linebacker Chad
Brown and defensive back Shawn Springs, they returned to the playoffs
in 1999.
The Seattle
Seahawks have never played in the Super Bowl.
<p>The Seahawks are team in transition at the quarterback position.</p>
<p>Seattle hasn't had a change in the top two positions on the depth chart at quarterback since Trent Dilfer was traded to the Cleveland Browns.</p>
<p>Since then, Matt Hasselbeck has been the starter and Seneca Wallace the backup. But that changed recently when Seattle dealt Wallace to the Browns for reportedly a seventh-round pick in 2011, allowing Wallace to rejoin his former coach Mike Holmgren in Cleveland.</p>
<p>"This will give Seneca a chance for a fresh start," Seahawks general manager John Schneider said. "The Browns front office's familiarity with his abilities will give him an opportunity to compete for playing time.
Mike Holmgren is already making deals with his former team. The Seattle Seahawks traded backup quarterback Seneca Wallace to the Cleveland Browns in exchange for a 2011 undisclosed draft pick. The Seahawks confirmed the deal Monday night. Wallace spent his entire seven-year career with the Seahawks, and was always a favorite of Holmgren's when he was Seattle's coach.
SEATTLE - Despite a potentially huge price to acquire his services, the Seattle Seahawks are going to take their shot at impressing Denver wide receiver Brandon Marshall.
Despite a potentially huge price to acquire his services, the Seattle Seahawks are going to take their shot at impressing Denver wide receiver Brandon Marshall. The star Broncos receiver, and restricted free agent, will visit with the Seahawks on Saturday, a team spokesman said on Friday night. ESPN.com first reported Marshall's visit.
The Seattle Seahawks are asking fans who are renewing season tickets to pay a little bit more in 2010 even though the team is coming off consecutive losing seasons. The Seahawks recently sent season-ticket holders renewal information that asks for an average of a 3 percent increase in ticket prices over 2009.
How each of the 32 NFL teams are approaching Friday's opening of free agency with no salary cap: AFC BALTIMORE RAVENS Ravens don't intend to be thrifty. In quest to enhance roster, especially at wide receiver, Ravens expect to benefit from cost-cutting measures by other teams. "There will be some real good players that are going to get cut," general manager Ozzie Newsome said.
The Seattle Seahawks have made tenders to five players, including using the exclusive rights tender on linebacker David Hawthorne. By using that tender on Hawthorne, only the Seahawks can negotiate with him because he has no free agency privileges. Had they not made this tender, he could have talked to other teams as a restricted free agent.
