The Seahawks Syndicate: What does Seattle need to make a Super Bowl run?
Field Gulls Field Gulls

We’re less than 24 hours away from the biggest game of the Seattle Seahawks’ 2025 season, and one of their biggest in years. A win over the Los Angeles Rams puts them in control of the NFC West and on the cusp of capturing the NFC’s No. 1 seed. A loss could send them down to third place by the end of Week 16 behind the Rams and San Francisco 49ers, all but assuring that any path to the Super Bowl would have to go through the Wild Card.

While the Seahawks have racked up four wins in a row and sit at an impressive 11-3, there have been concerns on the offensive side of the ball, particularly the run game struggles and the lackluster opening halves over the past few weeks. A narrow win over a fading Indianapolis Colts team starting freshly unretired Philip Rivers at quarterback may not have been the most confidence-boosting performance ahead of a showdown with the Rams, who have yet to lose against Seattle with Matthew Stafford as starter. To make matters worse, there will be no left tackle Charles Cross for the next few weeks.

The Seahawks Syndicate podcast is back for a special mid-month edition to preview the Rams game. Yours truly is joined by Bryce Coutts (The Hawk’s Eye podcast and Field Gulls staff), Dan Viens (Seahawks Forever podcast and former Field Gulls podcast host), and Brandon Cain (The Hawk’s Nest podcast and this episode’s host) comprise the four-person panel for our insights and opinions on our favorite football team. We’ll discuss Seattle’s Super Bowl prospects, the keys to the Rams game, and take a long-term look at the offensive line and the future of the right guard position.
