Seahawks 2013 squad still sits atop list of best teams of the decade

Four Seattle Seahawks rosters have made Aaron Schatz’s list for ESPN of the best NFL teams of the decade.

With a lull in the action before the hopeful start of training camps at the end of July, Aaron Schatz has updated his special to ESPN detailing his best NFL teams and players of the decade following the close of the 2019 season.

After his adjustments, the 2013 Seahawks still sit atop his list of the best clubs of their time at No. 1 overall.

“The 2013 Seahawks featured the No. 10 best defense in DVOA history (including playoffs),” Schatz writes. “They also ranked seventh on offense and fifth on special teams for the regular season. Seattle’s three losses all came by a touchdown or less, and their 43-8 Super Bowl blowout of Denver ranks as one of the 20 best single-game performances in DVOA history.”

Seattle’s 2013 squad wasn’t its only one to make the cut, four Seahawks teams were included in Schatz’s top-10 of the decade: the 2014 corps landed at No. 9, the 2012 roster made it to No. 4 and 2015’s slate ranked No. 3.
