The Seattle Seahawks are a professional American football team based in Seattle, Washington. They are currently members of the Western Division of the National Football Conference (NFC) in the National Football League (NFL). The Seattle Seahawks team, along with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, joined the NFL in 1976 as expansion teams. Seattle is currently the only team in the NFL that has played in both the American Football Conference (AFC) and NFC Championship games. The Seahawks have one Super Bowl appearance, losing to the Pittsburgh Steelers in Super Bowl XL.
The Seahawks are the only NFL team to switch conferences twice in the post-merger era. Seattle Seahawks began play in 1976 in the NFC West division. After one season, Seattle switched conferences with Tampa Bay and joined the AFC West. This realignment was dictated by the league as part of the 1976 expansion plan, so that both expansion teams could play each other around two times and every other NFL franchise once during their first few seasons.
During the 2005 offseason, the Seahawks worked towards improving areas that lead to their downfall in 2004. The Seahawks got off to a rocky start on their 2005 campaign but it ended with their first Super Bowl appearance.
Seattle Seahawks lost their first game of the season against the Jacksonville Jaguars. In the next week, their home-opener was against the same team that they beat on the last game of the 2004.
