Product Description
For nearly three decades the Seattle Seahawks were pro football's most anonymous team, tucked away in the Pacific Northwest, far removed from the media spotlight. But in 2005 the Seahawks could no longer be ignored. They posted the NFC's best record at 13-3 and led the league in scoring, enroute to their first-ever Super Bowl appearance. Team stars included league MVP Shaun Alexander, who led the NFL in rushing while punching in a record-shattering 28 touchdowns. Quarterback Matt Hasselbeck, fullback Mack Strong, and linemen Walter Jones, Steve Hutchinson and Robbie Tobeck were named to the Pro Bowl. On the other side of the ball rookie Lofa Tatupu was one of eight new starters on defense who transformed that unit into one of the league's finest. Here are all the highlights, from opening day right through Super Sunday -- the sights and sounds of every game in this special salute to the greatest season in Seahawks' history.

Seahawks Historic Year August 26, 2008
This was a good DVD, provided some historical context to the Seahawks season and a lot of coverage on Alexander and the Offensive line. I didn't like the Sabol line about the Seahawks being the most anonymous team in the NFL. How about Arizona and Detroit or even New Orleans.

This is a good DVD for anyone who has never paid any attention to the Seahawks before 2005, which is basically most of the NFL's fans. I like the way it shows the Seahawks blasting through a 13-3 season, including 11 straight wins. It shows good reactions of the opposing sideline's coaches and players when they know it's all over. This DVD glosses over the horrible officiating in Super Bowl XL. I'm not going to say that's the ONLY reason Seattle lost that game, but it certainly took away a lot of their points, and therefore took the fight out of them toward the end of the game. My final word on the Super Bowl is that soon after, head coach Mike Holmgren publicly commented that he was surprised that his team had to play the guys in the striped shirts as well as Pittsburgh, which is basically publicly calling the NFL officials corrupt and unfair, and he was NOT fined by the NFL. What does that tell you?
Anyway, back to the DVD.. There are a lot of funny extras from the sidelines that you'd never hear otherwise, such as QB Matt Hasselbeck commenting to a ref about a booger in his nose right before the coin toss at the Super Bowl, and how poor Matt responds to a bee sting in training camp. Also lots of opposing players BSing with the Seahawks in a friendly way that you don't see too much. It's a good DVD overall, well worth the cost, which is not that much anyway.
Maybe Next Time December 11, 2007
An amazing 3 hour doc. on the greatest season of one of the NFL's least known and unlucky teams. In 2005 The seattle seahawks made a noise so loud they could no longer be ingnored. Setting a NFC record of 13-3 and harbering the League MVP Shean Alaxander with 28 touchdowns. The seahawks have been plaqued with failure since thier 1976 introduction into the NFL as an expasion team. For years the Seahawks had no titles and had never won a playoff game, in 05' that changed. This documantary of my Favorite Team in Professional Sports Chronicles the greatest season in franchise history and the begining of 4 year davision champion team.
Currently the Seahawks have clentched the NFC West Title 4 years in a row and i have high expectations for the 08-09 season.

This is an excellent video capturing our best season and post season. We are original
season ticket holders, over 31years and throughly enjoyed this dvd. We actually rented it
first and then purchased. It also documents how well we got ripped in the Super Bowl by
the ref's.
Good Review of Seahawks Best Season August 11, 2007

2005 was the Seattle Seahawks best season to date. They were the best team in the NFL that year, and that was demonstrated to the world when they wiped up Detroit's Ford Field with the Pittsburgh Steelers on February 5, 2006. The ONLY thing that saved the Steelers that day was the officiating.
The DVD contains virtually everything a Seahawks fan would want it to contain. A review of every game of the regular season and the playoffs, the full half-hour NFL Game of the Week presentation of the NFC Championship Game against the Carolina Panthers. There are mini-documentaries about the Seahawks 2005 training camp, Mike Holmgren's career, Kenny Easley, Steve Largent, and a genuinely moving story about linebacker Isaiah Kacyvenski's rough life growing up in rural New York.
The only disappointment with the DVD was beyond the control of the makers of the DVD: HOW do you present to Seahawks fans the NFL championship game that was openly and deliberately thrown to the Steelers through biased officiating? There was no getting around it. The game was a complete, total, and utter travesty of justice and sportsmanship, and I lost a tremendous amount of respect for the NFL that day.
