The Seattle Seahawks, who last claimed the NFC West title in 2020, are poised to make a comeback after a near miss last season. Despite finishing just behind the Los Angeles Rams in 2024, there is a sense that the Seahawks are being underestimated. Notably, 49ers reporter Grant Cohen has voiced this sentiment on social media, suggesting that skepticism surrounding Seattle's potential may be misplaced.

The team's off-season moves, highlighted by drafting offensive lineman Grey Zabel, signal a commitment to improvement. Zabel is expected to provide an upgrade over Laken Tomlinson, while a revamped coaching staff could help optimize the skills of existing players. Nevertheless, questions remain about whether these changes will translate into a better overall offensive performance.
