Some History
The future of the Seahawks in the Pacific Northwest was secured after Paul Allen purchased the team in 1997 and two years later hired Mike Holmgren as their head coach and general manager.The Seahawks returned to the playoffs for the first time since 1988. QB Jon Kitna passed for 3346 yards and 23 TD's and led the team to a 9-7 record, earning them a berth in the Wild Card game. Playing host to the Miami Dolphins in the 1st round of the playoffs, they lost a close one 20-17.
If you look closely at this jersey, you will note a smaller patch the NFL shield on the jersey's neckline. Most NFL uniforms added the NFL logo patch to the neck and upper left thigh of the pants beginning in 1991 - an exception being in 1994 when teams occasionally wore "throwback" uniforms celebrating the NFL's 75th anniversary.
This blue jersey moves the player numbers back to the shoulders, wile the Seahawks logo stays on the arms. If you look closely, you will see the change on the mask of the helmet.
