Seahawks’ Road Warriors: A Winning Season Despite Home woes
The Seattle Seahawks are clinging to playoff hopes after a hard-fought 6-3 victory over the Chicago Bears. While their postseason chances remain slim, one undeniable fact emerges: Coach Mike Macdonald deserves immense credit for the team’s remarkable road success.
This season has presented a stark contrast for the seahawks. They’ve struggled mightily at home, posting a disappointing 3-6 record at Lumen Field. However, their away performances have been nothing short of remarkable. Despite facing challenging opponents like the New England Patriots, New York Jets, and Chicago Bears, the Seahawks boast a dominant 6-1 road record. This marks only the third time in franchise history they’ve achieved at least six regular-season road wins, joining the 2013 Super Bowl champions and the 2019 team, which holds the all-time franchise record of 7-1.
Their latest road triumph secured a third consecutive winning season for the Seahawks. their sights are now set on week 18’s matchup against the Los Angeles Rams, with a 10-win season and a potential division title still within reach. Regardless of the outcome against the Rams, the Seahawks have already etched their names in NFL history: they are the first team ever to clinch a winning overall record despite losing at least six home games.
While this achievement might seem like a statistical anomaly, it’s a testament to the Seahawks’ resilience and their ability to perform under pressure on the road.A team once synonymous with home-field dominance has found a new identity, thriving away from Lumen Field and keeping their playoff hopes alive.
coach Macdonald’s next challenge is clear: recapturing the Seahawks’ home-field advantage. transforming their road success into a consistent winning formula at home will be crucial in their quest for a top seed, rather than a nail-biting playoff push.
