The Seattle Seahawks are an NFL team based in Seattle, Washington, competing in the NFC West. They were established as an expansion team in 1976 and initially played in the NFC before moving to the AFC West from 1977 to 2001. In 2002, they returned to the NFC West. The team's home games are held at Lumen Field in Seattle's SoDo neighborhood, but they previously played in the Kingdome (1976-1999) and Husky Stadium (1994 and 2000-2001). The Seahawks are currently coached by Pete Carroll. Their passionate fan base is known as the "12s" or the "12th Fan."
The Seahawks have left an indelible mark on the NFL, especially in recent years. Under Coach Pete Carroll's leadership, the team achieved remarkable success, highlighted by their Super Bowl XLVIII victory in the 2013 season. Led by a dominant defense nicknamed the "Legion of Boom," featuring stars like Richard Sherman, Earl Thomas, and Kam Chancellor, the Seahawks embodied a tenacious and aggressive style of play that made them a formidable force in the league. Their iconic quarterback, Russell Wilson, has been a linchpin of their offense, showcasing athleticism and leadership that has consistently propelled the team into playoff contention. While the road to sustained success in the NFL is arduous, the Seahawks' resilience and the unwavering support of the "12s" have made them a perennial contender, capturing the hearts of Seattleites and football fans across the globe.
