The Seattle Seahawks have compensated for their lackluster home record by being an elite road team, and Mike Macdonald is putting up numbers rarely seen in NFL history.
Thursday’s 23-20 win over the Arizona Cardinals improved the Seahawks to 9-1 over 10 road games under Coach Macdonald, with eight consecutive away victories standing as the longest streak in franchise history. The odds of breaking the NFL record of 18 straight road wins by the 1988-1990 San Francisco 49ers may be a bit ambitious, why not dream big?
The other four coaches who previously accomplished this feat were George Seifert (who inherited the winning streak record started by Bill Walsh, then won his first 16 road games over two seasons), Sean McVay of the Los Angeles Rams, Don McCafferty of the 1970s Baltimore Colts, and Paul Brown of the Cleveland Browns way back in the 1940s. Seifert won two Super Bowls, McVay has been to two Super Bowls and won one, McCafferty won a Super Bowl in his first season with Baltimore, and Brown was a three-time NFL champion with the Cleveland Browns.
All I’m saying is that you can pencil in a Super Bowl for Macdonald and the Seahawks soon.
