Seattle Seahawks Tickets

The Seattle Seahawks were hoping to send head coach Mike Holmgren out with a bang, but this injury-riddled team sent the veteran out with a whimper instead.

You can't put too much blame on Holmgren or the Seahawks players, as the number of injuries that ravaged this team, especially at wide receiver, was astounding.

It seemed like every single wide receiver that the team signed would get injured just days later, leaving the team with no one to throw the ball to.

As if that wasn't bad enough, the team didn't have anyone to throw the ball to those no-name wideouts. Quarterback Matt Hasselback spent much of the season injured, forcing Seneca Wallace into action.

Seattle is hoping that 2009 will bring a reversal of that bad luck and that things may finally start to go their way. Head coach Jim Mora Jr. will try and continue the success Holmgren had during his tenure in Seattle.

The Seahawks will take on the NFC North and AFC South in 2009. The NFC North remains one of the worst divisions in football while the AFC South is balanced from top to bottom.

Seattle will have to play Dallas and Tampa Bay, two tough teams but certainly not unbeatable. They host the Bucs, and any game in Seattle is tough on the opponent.

The Seahawks do catch a bad scheduling break during the middle of the season, having to play three straight weeks on the road against the Arizona Cardinals, Minnesota Vikings, and St. Louis Rams.
