The Seattle Seahawks are slated to look a lot different in 2024 than they did in 2023.
The biggest change that the team made in the offseason was to move on from Pete Carroll, who had been their head coach since 2010.
Whenever a team makes a coaching change of this magnitude, the team is bound to look a lot different.
The Seahawks have hired Mike Macdonald as their newest head coach, someone the organization is very fond of.
In a recent segment of his sports show, general manager John Schneider said he doesn’t “feel a step back” is coming with the team’s production in 2024.

He has full faith in the coaching staff that he has assembled and believes they have what it takes to bring the Seahawks success.
The NFC West has gotten increasingly difficult lately, which will provide an additional barrier for the Seahawks in 2024.
The San Francisco 49ers just represented the NFC in the Super Bowl, and the Los Angeles Rams appear to be back, ready to return to the title game next year.
For the Seahawks to break through, they’ll have to put forth a different approach than they have had over the past few seasons.
Russell Wilson not being their quarterback anymore certainly hurts their floor as an offense, but, given his recent extension, it seems that Geno Smith will be running the team for another season.
His familiarity with the offense should help, and if everything clicks as Schneider expects, the Seahawks just might be able to bring themselves back to relevance next year.
