The Seahawks don’t come storming out of the gates with their new head coaches.
The Seattle Seahawks offense had an inauspicious start to the Mike Macdonald era. Geno Smith was sacked on the first play of the season, then threw an interception directly into the arms of Denver Broncos linebacker Alex Singleton on the next snap. Thankfully, the outstanding Seahawks defense held Denver to just a field goal despite the Broncos starting in the red zone.
It took all of three plays for Hasselbeck to throw a double coverage interception to James Butler, with T.J. Houshmandzadeh the intended target. Seattle turned it over three times in the opening quarter, but the Rams were an eventual 1-15 team and got crushed 28-0 by arguably the worst Seahawks team this century. Mike Holmgren’s highly anticipated 1999 season opener against the Detroit Lions thankfully did not start off with an opening drive interception.
