2008 Record: 4-12 The Seattle Seahawks had a tumultuous season in 2008. Injuries ravaged their roster as the team mailed in their effort in head coach Mike Holmgren\u2019s last season. With a fresh season in front of them with a new coach, the Seahawks are ready to reclaim their NFC West crown.<\/p>\n The Seahawks took a year off but they are back. While there are some questions on the offensive line, particularly with training camp injuries to center Chris Spencer and left tackle Walter Jones, the Seahawks still have a very deep lineup.<\/p>\n A healthy Matt Hasselbeck will make a world of difference as he is the leader of the team. A few targets have been added to his radar since he last suited up in a regular season game. The Seahawks developed John Carlson into one of the league\u2019s better tight ends last year and added wide receiver T.J. Houshmanzadeh in free agency.<\/p>\n The backfield is a concern with Julius Jones and the addition of Edgerrin James. It\u2019s just unclear if the Seahawks will be able to run effectively but when Jim Mora Jr. and offensive coordinator Greg Knapp ran the show in Atlanta, it didn\u2019t really matter who was in the backfield as their running games were always potent.<\/p>\n On defense, the Seahawks may have one of the best units in the NFC. They swapped aging linebacker Julian Peterson for standout defensive tackle Corey Redding, which really shores up a position of weakness. With Redding, a healthy Patrick Kerney and Darryl Tapp, the Seahawks have a very solid defensive line. At the second level, the Seahawks replaced Peterson with Aaron Curry, who is one of the most NFL ready rookies in the 2009 NFL Draft.<\/p>\n The Seahawks gave their secondary a boost when they signed Ken Lucas back to their team. With Marcus Trufant (when he\u2019s healthy), along with Josh Wilson and former first-round pick Kelly Jennings, the Seahawks have a very good secondary as well.<\/p>\n Nowadays, the Seahawks defense will carry the offense \u2013 at least until the offensive line settles.<\/p>\n But overall, the Seahawks are the most complete team in the NFC West. Expectations were high last year before the injuries set in and they can get back there and even go further now that they\u2019ve improved their roster.<\/p>\n Don\u2019t sleep on the Seahawks this year.<\/p>\n Super Bowl Odds: +5000<\/strong><\/p>\n Conference Odds: +2300<\/p>\n NFC South Odds: +205<\/p>\n 2009 Seahawks Predictions<\/strong><\/p>\n Place they\u2019ll finish in NFC West: 1st<\/p>\n Place they\u2019ll finish in NFC Conference: 3rd<\/p>\n Over\/Under Season Wins Prediction: Over 8.5<\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n Dave Golokhov has written for <\/strong>BETUS Sportsbook, Sportsfanmagazine.com, FOX, Askmen.com, Sports-central.org, and the FOXSports.com Funhouse.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It’s another season making NFL previews and Super Bowl predictions for the Seattle Seahawks.
