1999 Seattle Seahawks season

24th season in franchise history; final one in the Kingdome

The 1999 Seattle Seahawks season was the franchise's 24th season in the National Football League (NFL), the last playing their home games at the Kingdome and the first under head coach Mike Holmgren. It was also the first season that Seattle made the playoffs in eleven seasons. It would be Seattle's last playoff appearance as an American Football Conference (AFC) team. They would not return to the playoffs until 2003, after being moved to the National Football Conference (NFC).

Offseason

After the 1998 season, head coach Mike Holmgren left Green Bay to become the coach of the Seahawks. Holmgren was hired on January 8, 1999, to be the executive vice president, general manager and head coach.[1]

Once fellow members of Bill Walsh’s staff on the Forty-Niners, Mike Holmgren faced his former defensive coordinator and now successor as Packers head coach Ray Rhodes. Shawn Springs’ blocked punt touchdown and Corey Bradford’s 74-yard catch opened a 7-7 game that then became a Seahawks rout as Brett Favre was intercepted four times and benched for Matt Hasselbeck. The 27-7 win left the Seahawks 5-2. Entering 2023 this was the last time the Seahawks defeated the Packers at Lambeau Field.[6]
