Mark Your Calendar: Super Bowl Champ Seahawks Opening at Home and It's Going to Be INSANE
The wait is almost over. The NFL just dropped the schedule details for the Seahawks' season opener, and if you needed a reason to block off your calendar, here it is: defending Super Bowl champions are kicking off the entire league's regular season at home on Wednesday, Sept. 9. This is the Seahawks' moment to shine on the biggest stage possible, and Seattle fans better be ready.
The Details You Need to Know
The league announced Wednesday that the Seahawks will host the regular-season opener for the entire NFL. Kickoff is set for 5:20 p.m., and the game will be broadcast on NBC. No opponent has been named yet, but honestly, does it matter? The defending champs are opening the season at Lumen Field in front of the 12s, and that's what counts.
The Banner Raising Is Going to Be Unreal
This game is going to be about more than just football. The Seahawks are expected to raise the Super Bowl banner before kickoff, commemorating their 29-13 demolition of New England last month. That's the second title in franchise history, and this is the moment Seattle gets to celebrate it in front of the entire nation. Picture it: the banner going up, the crowd losing it, and then the defending champs taking the field. Chills.
This is what it's all about. This is why you live in Seattle. Be there.
