Despite rating the Seahawks as the 3rd best team in the NFL in his Elo ratings, fivethirtyeight.com's Nate Silver says we make the playoffs just 46% of the time in his simulations due to being "harmed by playing in the NFL’s toughest division, in a deep conference and against a very tough schedule."
Jeff Sagarin’s ratings also have the Seahawks as the third-best team in football based solely on their performance this year. The Seahawks have outscored their opponents by 18 points against a very tough schedule.
