3. Seattle Seahawks

The Seattle Seahawks have always had a reputation for being a team that is consistent. The past 8 years they have finished with a winning record and have either won the NFC West or have come in second. You really can’t get more consistent than that.

Starting off the 2020 season with a 2-0 record, the Seahawks have looked like the team that everyone is used to seeing. This year though the Seahawks have a little bit more competition between the Rams, 49ers and Cardinals. At this point in time, I think that the division is up for grabs and can really go to anyone. Some might suggest otherwise and say that the Seahawks will capture it easy, but they can’t sleep on any of their divisional rivals.

Russell Wilson has opened up his 2020 season with 9 touchdowns in the first two games which is an unbelievable pace that he is set on. If he continues to keep up the pace that he is on he will absolutely shatter his 31 touchdown season along with his 35 touchdown personal best season in 2018.

Madden 21 didn’t really give the Seahawks much respect at launch with a rating of only 85 overall. They are clearly a much better team than an 85 overall and with the Russell Wilson we have seen so far in 2020, EA Sports needs to jump on an in-game update and give the Seahawks some respect. I don’t know what year it is in the EA Sports world, but in 2020 the Seattle Seahawks deserve a higher rating than an 85.
