The season opener was moved from Sunday to Monday afternoon on Labor Day to avoid a conflict with a Seattle Mariners baseball game. The 1984 Seahawks were a well-balanced team on offense and defense. The 1984 Seahawks season was the Seahawks' best season as a team in the AFC West. They scored 418 points (26.1 per game), and gave up only 282 points (17.6 per game), both ranked 5th in the NFL. Their point differential of +136 points was third in the NFL; the Seahawks' giveaway/takeaway ratio was +24, best in the league. The team's 63 defensive takeaways is the most in NFL history for a 16-game schedule, and the most since the merger.Pro-Football-Reference.com: In a single season, from 1940 to 2011, in the regular season, sorted by descending Takeaways. The team's offense boasted a 3,000-yard passer in quarterback Dave Krieg (3,671 yards), and a 1,000-yard wide receiver in Steve Largent (74 receptions for 1,164 yards). The passing attack more than made up for the loss of star running back Curt Warner, who suffered a season-ending knee injury in the opener. The Seahawks's defensive line generated an outstanding pass rush, with defensive ends Jeff Bryant and Jacob Green registering 14.5 and 13 sacks, respectively. Safety Kenny Easley led the team and league with 10 interceptions.Pro-Football-Reference.com: 1984 Seattle Seahawks Easley, Green, and NT Joe Nash made the All-Pro team. In a wild week-10 game against the Kansas City Chiefs, the Seahawks intercepted Kansas City's quarterbacks six times, and returned four of them for touchdowns. All the touchdown returns were for over 50 yards.Dave Brown, 90-yard return for TD; Keith Simpson, 76-yard return for TD; Dave Brown, 56-yard return for TD; Kenny Easley, 58-yard return for TD: Pro-Football-Reference.com: Kansas City Chiefs 0 at Seattle Seahawks 45, Sunday, November 4, 1984 In the game, the Seahawks set NFL records for most yards returning interceptions (325), and most interceptions-for-touchdowns in a game (4). Seattle would make the playoffs for the second straight season. They defeated the defending Super Bowl champion Los Angeles Raiders 13–7 in the wild card round avenging their 1983 loss. However, they were not able to advance past the Miami Dolphins, as they lost in Miami 31–10 to a powerful Dolphins squad led by record setting second year quarterback Dan Marino, who they had defeated in the playoffs the previous season. After this season, the Seahawks wouldn't win another playoff game until their Super Bowl-appearing 2005 season. 1984 NFL draft 1984 NFL draft 1984 Seattle Seahawks draft Round Selection Player Position College 1 22 Terry Taylor Defensive back Southern Illinois 249 Daryl Turner Wide receiver Michigan State 376 Fredd Young Linebacker New Mexico State 4 86 Rickey Hagood Nose tackle South Carolina 6162 John Kaiser Linebacker Arizona 7189 Sam Slater Offensive tackle Weber State 8 216 John Puzar Center Long Beach State 9 243 Adam Schreiber Center Texas 10 270 Randall Morris Running back Tennessee 11 302 Steve Gemza Offensive Tackle UCLA 12329 Theo Windham Defensive Back Utah State Supp. Gordon Houston Tight end Brigham Young Supp. Alvin Powell Offensive Guard Winston-Salem State Supp. Frank Seurer Quarterback Kansas Personnel Staff 1984 Seattle Seahawks President/general manager – Mike McCormack Assistant general manager – Chuck Allen Player personnel director – Mike Allman Assistant player personnel director – Rick Thompson Pro personnel assistant – Randy Mueller Head athletic trainer - Jim Whitesel Assistant athletic trainer - John Kasik Head coach – Chuck Knox Assistant head coach – Tom Catlin Offensive coordinator/offensive line – Ray Prochaska Quarterbacks – Ken Meyer Offensive backs – Chick Harris Receivers – Steve Moore Tight ends – Rusty Tillman Defensive coordinator/linebackers – Tom Catlin Defensive line – George Dyer Defensive backs – Ralph Hawkins Special assignments – Joe Vitt Special teams – Rusty Tillman Final roster 1984 Seattle Seahawks 49 8 17 Dave Krieg 10 Jim Zorn 32 Cullen Bryant 31 Zachary Dixon 33 Dan Doornink 46 David Hughes American football 37 Eric Lane American football 43 Randall Morris y 83 Chris Castor 80 Steve Largent 82 Paul Skansi 81 Daryl Turner y 89 Byron Walker 88 Pete Metzelaars 86 Mike Tice 87 Charle Young 69 Sid Abramowitz T 65 Edwin Bailey American football G 59 Blair Bush C 78 Bob Cryder T 64 Ron Essink T 62 Kani Kauahi C 67 Reggie McKenzie guard G 61 Robert Pratt American football G 75 Adam Schreiber y G 77 Jeff Bryant DE 68 Randy Edwards y DE 74 Mike Fanning American football DE 79 Jacob Green DE 73 Dino Mangiero NT 72 Joe Nash NT 53 Keith Butler American football ILB 56 Greg Gaines linebacker OLB 55 Michael Jackson linebacker OLB 60 John Kaiser American football y ILB 51 Sam Merriman ILB 57 Shelton Robinson ILB 58 Bruce Scholtz OLB 50 Fredd Young y OLB 22 Dave Brown cornerback CB 35 Don Dufek FS 45 Kenny Easley SS 44 John Harris safety FS 24 Terry Jackson cornerback CB 21 Paul Moyer American football SS 42 Keith Simpson American football CB 20 Terry Taylor American football y CB  9 Norm Johnson K  8 Jeff West American football P 96 Chuck Butler no y LB IR 63 Marcus Hicks no LB IR 85 Paul Johns American football WR IR 71 Bryan Millard y T IR 52 Joe Norman LB PUP 84 Dwight Scales WR IR 28 Curt Warner RB IR 54 Eugene Williams American football LB PUPhttps://www.pro-football-reference.com/ Home pro-football-reference.com Starters in bold.
