SEATTLE _ The Seahawks have reached halftime of the 2019 season, and at 6-2 they have their best midseason record since their Super Bowl championship season in 2013.
So, yes, a good start.
But things are about to get difficult. Much more difficult.
The Seahawks' opponents in the first half of the season have a combined record of 26-34-1.
The combined record of their second-half opponents: 31-21-1.
That gives the Seahawks the toughest remaining schedule in the NFL, according to playoffstatus.com. That's owed largely to the strength of the NFC West. The Seahawks still have two games against the undefeated 49ers and a trip to Los Angeles to play the reloading 5-3 Rams. And Arizona, at 3-4-1, isn't looking like a pushover, either.
Before we get too far down the road and into the season's second half, here is a look in the rear-view mirror at some of the best and worst moments from the Seahawks' first half with our midseason awards:
