The 2014 season was the Seattle Seahawks' 39th in the National Football League (NFL) and their fifth under head coach Pete Carroll. The Seahawks started the season as the defending Super Bowl champions for the first time in franchise history.
The season began with a 36–16 victory over the Green Bay Packers in their first meeting since the controversial Fail Mary Game. After struggling to a 3–3 record, which included a rare home loss to the Dallas Cowboys, they went on a 9–1 run to finish the season, which included a sweep of their division rivals, the Arizona Cardinals, who battled with them the whole season. They repeated as NFC West champions and finished in a three-way tie with the Packers and Cowboys for the NFC's best record, but they earned the No. 1 seed based on intra-conference tiebreaker, securing home-field advantage for the second consecutive season. Not only are they first defending Super Bowl champion to do so since the 1990 San Francisco 49ers, but also the first NFC team to repeat as the No. 1 seed in the conference since the 2004 Philadelphia Eagles, and the first team to do so since the 2013 Denver Broncos.
The Seahawks fielded the #1 rushing attack in the league with Marshawn Lynch finishing the year with 1,306 yards and a league-leading 13 rushing touchdowns. In addition to Lynch, Russell Wilson had one of the most prolific running quarterback seasons ever with a career high 849 rushing yards and 6 rushing touchdowns along with a league-leading 7.2 yards per attempt.
The Seahawks opened the playoffs with a win over the Carolina Panthers in the Divisional round, becoming the first defending champion since the 2005 New England Patriots to win a playoff game the following season. In one of the greatest comebacks in NFL history, the Seahawks advanced to Super Bowl XLIX by defeating the Green Bay Packers 28–22 in overtime after trailing 16–0 at halftime and 19–7 with less than three minutes left in regulation. In doing so, they became the first team since the 2004 New England Patriots to repeat as conference champions, the first NFC team since the 1997 Green Bay Packers to repeat as NFC Champions, the first team to go to consecutive Super Bowls as the No. 1 seed in the playoffs since the 1990–1991 Buffalo Bills, and the first NFC team to go to consecutive Super Bowls as the No. 1 seed in the playoffs since the 1982–1983 Washington Redskins. In Super Bowl XLIX, the Seahawks were defeated by the New England Patriots 28–24, thereby being dethroned https://www.espn.com/nfl/recap?gameId=400749027 https://web.archive.org/web/20170328200418/http://www.espn.com/nfl/recap?gameId=400749027 dead March 28, 2017 Malcolm Butler's goal-line interception gives Pats Super Bowl XLIX title 1 February 2015 ESPN 3 February 2015 and failed to become the first back-to-back champion since the 2004 New England Patriots, as well as the first NFC team to do so since the 1993 Dallas Cowboys. This was also the first time head coach Pete Carroll met his former team, the Patriots, and his successor, Bill Belichick in the Super Bowl, as Carroll was the Patriots head coach from 1997 to 1999, the last head coach before Belichick was hired in 2000.
This was also the most recent time that the Seahawks acquired the number one seed in the NFC until 2025 (where they eventually won the Super Bowl by successfully revenging the Patriots that they lost to them). It also currently remains the latest season where a team in the NFC repeated as conference champions from the previous season.

The Seahawks started their 2014 season at home against the Packers, the first meeting since the controversial 'Fail Mary' game in 2012. With the win, they became the first defending Super Bowl champion team since 2011 (also Packers) to win their regular season opening game for a 1–0 start.
This is the first game in NFL history to end in a score of 36–16. In all five years that Pete Carroll was head coach of the Seahawks, so far, he has had at least one game end in a score never before achieved.Bois Jon The Seahawks' art of 'scoragami' SBNation.com 2014-09-08 https://www.sbnation.com/2014/9/8/6110147/pete-carroll-seahawks-scoragami-weird-nfl-scores 2025-01-19

The Cowboys defeated the Seahawks 30–23. The Seahawks suffered only their second home loss since Russell Wilson became the starting quarterback at the start of the 2012 season (the other loss was to the Cardinals in Week 16 of the 2013 season). Wilson struggled mightily, going 14/28 for only 126 yards with 1 rushing touchdown, 0 touchdown passes, and a game sealing interception. The defense also gave up several big plays, including a 3rd and 20 first down conversion in the 4th quarter. The conversion eventually led to a touchdown that put the Cowboys up 27–23. The 30 points that were allowed by the Seahawks were the most they allowed in any home game in the Wilson era. With the loss, the Seahawks fell to 3–2 on the season.

After trailing 16–0 in the 3rd quarter and 19–7 with just over 2 minutes remaining, Russell Wilson, who threw 4 interceptions in the game, rallied Seattle to a much needed touchdown to bring the score to 19–14 with 2:09 left in regulation. The Seahawks then recovered an onside kick to re-gain possession of the football. After a relatively quick drive, Marshawn Lynch scored on a 24-yard touchdown run, making the score 22–19 after a successful 2-point conversion with 1:25 left. Aaron Rodgers then drove the Packers to the Seattle 30 yard line, where Mason Crosby kicked a 48-yard field goal to tie and send the game into overtime. Seattle then won the coin toss and drove 87 yards in 6 plays, capped by consecutive 35 yard completions, the first on 3rd-and-6 from the Seahawks own 30 yard line to Doug Baldwin, and the second a touchdown pass from Wilson to Jermaine Kearse to win the game 28–22.Shpigel Ben Seahawks Rally Past Packers in Overtime to Return to Super Bowl The New York Times 2015-01-18 https://www.nytimes.com/2015/01/19/sports/football/seahawks-rally-past-packers-in-overtime-for-nfc-championship-and-spot-in-super-bowl.html 2025-01-19 With the win, the Seahawks became the first defending champion to return to the Super Bowl since the 2004 Patriots.Patra Kevin Path back to the Super Bowl for Patriots, Seahawks NFL.com 2015-04-22 https://www.nfl.com/news/path-back-to-the-super-bowl-for-patriots-seahawks-0ap3000000487407 2025-01-19 This would be the Seahawks last appearance or win in the NFC Championship until 2025.

The game was a back and forth battle, but best remembered for Russell Wilson throwing a game-sealing interception at the one-yard line on 2nd and 1 instead of going for a Marshawn Lynch rushing touchdown. The decision was highly scrutinized; Pete Carroll stated "You've trained your players to do the right thing, and I trust them to do right."Silver Michael Seahawks' Pete Carroll explains ill-fated call in Super Bowl XLIX NFL.com 2015-02-02 https://www.nfl.com/news/seahawks-pete-carroll-explains-ill-fated-call-in-super-bowl-xlixli0ap3000000467707 2025-01-19 This marked both their last Super Bowl appearance until 2025, and their most recent loss to the Patriots.
