The Seahawks travel to Pittsburgh to face the Steelers this weekend for their first of four 10:00 a.m. PT starts this season. Sunday marks the 18th meeting between the two teams, with Seattle having the 9-8 edge.
“Getting ready for Pittsburgh,” Coach Pete Carroll said Wednesday. “Big opportunity for us. Big trip. First time we take these guys on a big trip and travel for a couple days and all the things we do to get ready for this one. It seems like forever, Pittsburgh stays as a classic team.”
The Seahawks have not fared well in the Steel City as of late, losing the last two matchups (2007 and 2011) by a combined score of 45-0.
“It’s Coach [Mike] Tomlin, it’s Ben [Roethlisberger], it’s his defense, it’s just always been the same in that it poses all the problems that you could ever hate to face, and they got it,” Carroll explained. “I know that they didn’t get the first game like they wanted to, but I think that just makes them that much more dangerous. We are going to see if we could put together really good preparation and go get it.”
