The Seattle Seahawks are set to face the Green Bay Packers in a crucial NFC matchup on Sunday Night Football, marking their first encounter since 2021. Both teams are vying for playoff positioning, with Seattle riding a four-game winning streak and the Packers holding a 9-4 record despite a recent loss.
Key matchups include Seahawks receivers against a depleted Packers secondary, as Green Bay will be without All-Pro cornerback Jaire Alexander. Additionally, the battle between Seattle's defensive front and Green Bay's offensive line will be critical, especially with Seahawks linebacker Uchenna Nwosu returning to action.
Quarterback Geno Smith's improved play will be tested against Packers safety Xavier McKinney, who leads the league in interceptions. The Seahawks' inside linebackers will also have their hands full with Packers running back Josh Jacobs, who is among the league's rushing leaders. Lastly, the matchup between Seattle's safeties and Green Bay's tight ends could prove pivotal in determining the outcome of this high-stakes game.
