Seattle Seahawks’ Surprising Star: How Sam Darnold Is Quietly Shaking Up the NFL in 2025

In fact, the Seahawks will be a top-10 defense this season. I’m calling it. They have continuity, and I love when teams “run it back,” and All-Pro-caliber talent on all three levels, featuring a nasty secondary and DT Leonard Williams, who ranked fourth among 118 interior defenders last year, according to Pro Football Focus. 

Hence, the elephant in the room is Darnold, who everyone thinks is a downgrade from Geno. However, despite wrongfully thinking the 2024 Minnesota Vikings would suck last season with Darnold, I’m buying stock in Seattle regardless. I cannot believe I’m saying this, considering all the trash I talked last year, but, at best, he is an upgrade and, at worst, it’s a lateral move.
