The Seattle Seahawks have been projected by CBS Sports to win the Super Bowl this season, following a postseason path that will place them at the top of the field in the NFC.
Seattle is projected to secure the No. 1 overall seed in the NFC and earn a first-round bye in the playoffs. That position will give the Seahawks home-field advantage entering the divisional round, where they are forecasted to face the Los Angeles Rams.
Seattle defeats its NFC West rival 23-20 and advances to the NFC championship game to face the Detroit Lions. After downing Detroit 27-21, Seattle is projected to meet the Kansas City Chiefs in the Super Bowl. The forecast has the Seahawks defeating the Chiefs 20-19 to claim their second straight Vince Lombardi Trophy.
The
scenario gives the Seahawks a challenging route to the Super Bowl despite having a first-round bye, beginning with a division opponent familiar with Seattle’s personnel and style of play. The Lions have one of the most talented rosters on paper and present teams with a major test every week. A potential matchup with Kansas City on the NFL’s biggest stage pits Sam Darnold and company against superstar QB Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs.
The Seahawks’ projected road to the Lombardi Trophy highlights the expectations surrounding the team as it seeks to turn early-season momentum into a deep postseason run that culminates in a second straight Super Bowl win.
