Why The Seahawks Don't Have A Super Bowl Trophy

Our writer Anja Crotts wonders why Seattle has not had a champion in any sport, particularly football. (You can read her work by clicking on the title of the post.) I will offer that teams that win it all -- at least in the NFL -- can point to some kind of product innovation. For the Bucs in 2003, it was their defensive scheme. Same is true for the '85 Bears and their 46 Defense. Or what about the Steelers teams, which used a trap-running-game offense, and a "Stunt 4-3" Defense.

And of course, there were the 49ers teams and the signature Walsh Offense.

The only innovation I can remember the Seahawks having was "The Sprint Draw" with Jim Zorn at QB. They did get as far as the wild card playoffs, but it wasn't enough to overcome a poor defense.

Perhaps Mike Homgren can install more innovative approaches. The Seahawks are 8 and 2. But the Indy Colts are undefeated and have the offense that everyone agrees is very much innovative and effective.
