Seahawks Repeat: Ways They're Stronger and Where They Fall Short

As the Seahawks look to repeat this year, there are areas where they could slip after a championship season and reasons why they might still be even more dominant. Potential downside comes from opponents adjusting to Mike Macdonald's nickel-heavy run defense, statistical regression if Jaxon Smith-Njigba can't repeat his production, uncertainty around first-time play caller Brian Fleury, and possible special-teams regression. The optimism centers on expanded offensive weapons (A.J. Barner, Tory Horton, Rashid Shaheed), a chance for the offensive line to jump from average to top-10 with continuity, and defensive growth as Nick Emmanwori and Byron Murphy elevate alongside other core leaders. Finally, we recognize Mike Macdonald could still continue to grow and build the defense beyond what we saw last season.
