Their 13–3 regular season record is tied with the 2005 season for the best in franchise history. Seattle’s defense in 2013 is regarded by many to be one of the best in NFL history.Seattle entered the 2013 season at 17/2 odds to win Super Bowl XLVIII, just short of the Denver Broncos and San Francisco 49ers at 6/1. This was despite placing second in the NFC West and dropping its divisional round game against the Atlanta Falcons the previous year. The Seahawks were, by power ranking, ranked the strongest team by an NFL.com analyst before the season and by ESPN analysts after the regular season. The defense led the league in points allowed (231), yards allowed (4,378), and takeaways (39), the first team to lead all three categories since the 1985 Chicago Bears. Their +186 point differential is the best in franchise history. The Seahawks clinched the NFC's No. 1 seed and homefield advantage throughout the playoffs with their 13–3 record.

2014 Seattle Seahawks season

The 2014 season was the Seattle Seahawks' 39th in the National Football League and their fifth under head coach Pete Carroll. The Seahawks started the season as the defending Super Bowl champions for the first time in franchise history. The season began with a 36–16 victory over the Green Bay Packers in their first meeting since the controversial Fail Mary Game. After struggling to a 3–3 record, which included a rare home loss to the Dallas Cowboys, they went on a 9–1 run to finish the season, which included a sweep of their division rivals, the Arizona Cardinals, who battled with them the whole season. They repeated as NFC West champions and finished in a three-way tie with the Packers and Cowboys for the NFC's best record, but earned the No. 1 seed based on tiebreakers, securing home-field advantage for the second consecutive season. This was the first time that a defending Super Bowl champion retained the No. 1 seed in the next season since the 1990 San Francisco 49ers. They were also the first team overall to repeat as the #1 seed in the NFC since the 2004 Philadelphia Eagles; and the first NFL team to do so since the 2013 Denver Broncos. The Seahawks fielded the #1 rushing attack in the league with Marshawn Lynch finishing the year with 1,306 yards and a league leading 13 rushing touchdowns.

Legion of Boom (Seattle Seahawks)

The Legion of Boom (LOB) was the Seattle Seahawks secondary during its rise to prominence in the 2010s. The original group that was nicknamed the Legion of Boom consisted of the main starters in the Seahawks defensive backfield (the cornerback and safety positions): Richard Sherman, Earl Thomas, Kam Chancellor, Brandon Browner, Walter Thurmond and Byron Maxwell. Over time, the nickname grew to encompass the Seahawks defense as a whole, including prominent players such as Bobby Wagner, K. J. Wright, Michael Bennett, Cliff Avril, Malcolm Smith, Brandon Mebane, Frank Clark, Chris Clemons and Bruce Irvin. Other eventual starting members of the secondary included Jeremy Lane, DeShawn Shead, Tharold Simon, Marcus Burley, Bradley McDougald, Shaquill Griffin and Justin Coleman. During the LOB era, the Seahawks amassed six consecutive winning seasons, three division titles, two NFC championships, and a Super Bowl victory. They made the playoffs in five consecutive seasons (winning at least one game each appearance) and finished with five consecutive 10+ win seasons, a feat the franchise had never achieved in a consecutive season prior. They also appeared in back-to-back Super Bowls, winning once to secure the franchise's first ever championship. During the 2012 to 2015 seasons, the Seahawks led the league in scoring defense, allowing the fewest points scored each year for four years straight. The only other team to accomplish this feat were the Cleveland Browns of the 1950s. The 2013 defense led the league in points allowed (231), yards allowed (4,378), and takeaways (39), the first team to lead all three categories since the 1985 Chicago Bears.

List of Seattle Seahawks seasons

This is an article compilation of seasons completed by the Seattle Seahawks American football franchise of the National Football League (NFL). This article compiles information of the season-by-season records of the Seahawks' franchise from 1976 to present, including postseason records, and league awards for individual players or head coaches. As of the end of the 2021 NFL season, the Seahawks have 25 winning seasons, 18 losing seasons, and four seasons where they finished 8–8. With a 35–6 Week 14 win over the Baltimore Ravens on December 13 during the 2015 season, not only did the Seahawks improved to 8–5 at that point in the season, but the Seahawks' all–time franchise regular-season win–loss record improved to 313–312–0; this marked the first time ever in team history that the Seahawks have had an overall winning regular season win–loss record (a win–loss record above .500). Since re-joining the National Football Conference in 2002, the Seahawks have compiled a record of 186–134–1 (as of the end of the 2021 season). Also since then, the Seahawks have had only five losing seasons (between 2008 and 2011, as well as 2021), although their 2010 team won the Western division title, despite finishing with a 7–9 record. Counting their inaugural 1976 season, where they finished 2–12, Seattle's overall record as an NFC franchise is 176–142–1, while finishing 166-204 during their time as a member of the AFC. During their tenure in the American Football Conference, the Seahawks won the Western division twice (1988 and 1999), and made the AFC Championship game in 1983, their first-ever playoff season. In twenty-five seasons as a member of the AFC West, Seattle made the playoffs five times, with the team's most successful period prior to re-joining the NFC was during the tenure of head coach Chuck Knox, during a nine-season period from 1983 to 1991. Knox was responsible for four of the five playoff appearances that the Seahawks made during their time in the AFC, while in 1999, Seattle made the playoffs in Mike Holmgren's first season in charge, and it was the team's last AFC playoff appearance (a Wild Card playoff loss to the Miami Dolphins) before the transition to the NFC. Seattle is the only active NFL franchise to appear in both of the AFC and NFC championship games, doing so in 1983 (AFC), 2005, 2013, and 2014 (NFC), winning the latter three. The Seahawks are one of four North American men's professional sports teams that have played in Seattle with an all–time winning record, after the Seattle Metropolitans (the first American team to win the Stanley Cup in 1917, folded in 1924), the Seattle SuperSonics (who relocated to Oklahoma City and became the Thunder in the summer of 2008), and the Seattle Sounders FC (established in 2007 as an expansion franchise, currently active).
