The 2015 Seattle Seahawks started 0-2 and rebounded to make the playoffs:
- The opened the season with two road games
- They lost the first road game — to the Rams — by 3 points, even though they won the turnover battle
- They had a Pro Bowl safety holdout for the entire preseason and the first two games of the year
- They had a new defensive coordinator
- They felt comfortable at left tackle and at no other offensive line position
- The most glaring hole on defense was at RCB, where Cary Williams was starting opposite a very good-to-great cornerback
- Russell Wilson was criticized for mediocre performances and gaining just 6.
