Your Seattle Seahawks are coming off their most recent Super Bowl title, a win that officially tied us with the Los Angeles Rams at two Super Bowls a piece. For anyone still questioning who the more successful franchise is, that recent victory sure makes the case for the Emerald City look a whole lot stronger.
We've Got The Wins, They've Got... Well, Fewer Wins
When you look at the raw numbers, the Seahawks have more overall wins, plain and simple. We’re sitting pretty at 416 victories compared to the Rams’ 388. Yeah, the Rams edge us out in playoff wins 24-20, but let's be real, who's got the more recent Lombardi Trophy? That's us, Seattle. If those guys in L.A. had actually beaten us last year in the NFC Championship Game and gone on to win the Super Bowl, then maybe, just maybe, they’d have an easier case for being the stronger franchise with three total Super Bowls. But guess what? That didn't happen! Our last Super Bowl victory means we're tied up at two each. You love to see it.Macdonald Is Already Owning McVay
Let’s talk about the coaching matchup, because that's where the tides are turning. Sure, Sean McVay has had his share of success against the Seahawks over his career, holding an 11-6 record. But hold up, Head Coach Mike Macdonald is already 2-0 in his last two games against the Rams! That's right, 2-0. Until McVay can get a win on Macdonald, it’s fair to say our Seahawks have McVay and the Rams’ number. A recent tweet from @hawkblogger, Brian Nemhauser, even broke down some key stats for both franchises, including how things have gone since Seattle formally joined the NFC West back in 2002. Since then, the numbers aren't even close, proving the Seahawks have been the dominant force. The Rams can try to change this narrative as soon as this year with some victories, but until they consistently beat our Seahawks in meaningful games, it's fair to say, and honestly, depending on who you ask, it’s true: the Seahawks have been the better historical franchise.This article was created with AI assistance and reviewed by Seattle On Tap editorial staff.
