NFL team season
1990 Seattle Seahawks season Owner Ken Behring Head coach Chuck Knox General manager Tom Flores Home field Kingdome Record 9–7 Division place 3rd AFC West Playoff finish Did not qualify Pro Bowlers FB John Williams AP All-Pros None
The 1990 Seattle Seahawks season was the team's 15th season with the National Football League . The team improved on its 7–9 record from 1989, finishing 9–7. Despite the winning record, the team missed the postseason.
Seattle would start the season 0–3 before abandoning the run and shoot offense installed before the season and returning to the "Ground Chuck" Offense. Upon becoming a run-first offense again, RB Derrick Fenner led the AFC in rushing and total touchdowns with 14 (tied with Los Angeles Rams RB Cleveland Gary ) and finishing second in the NFL in total touchdowns (leading the AFC in that category) with 15 (one behind Detroit Lions RB Barry Sanders , 16 total touchdowns). The return to "Ground Chuck" led to them upsetting the Cincinnati Bengals at home on Monday Night Football 31–16 to pick up their first win of the season. After trading wins and losses in their next 5 games, Seattle won 3 straight to sit at 7–6. However, a loss to the Miami Dolphins hurt the Seahawks hopes for a playoff berth. They won their final 2 games of the season against the Denver Broncos and Lions to finish 9–7, but were eliminated after the Houston Oilers (led by backup QB Cody Carlson subbing for an injured Warren Moon) defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers on the final Sunday Night Football game of 1990. Due to conference record tiebreakers, Houston's win sent the Oilers and Cincinnati Bengals to the playoffs while a Pittsburgh win would've sent the Seahawks and Steelers to the postseason. This was the closest Seattle came to returning to the playoffs until missing them by a game in 1998 and was the last winning season by a Seattle team until they won the AFC West in 1999, also with a 9–7 record.
This was the first Seahawks season without original member Steve Largent , who retired at the end of the previous season. This season is also notable for Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Derrick Thomas sacking Seahawks quarterback Dave Krieg an NFL record 7 times in a single game. Despite this the Seahawks managed to pull out the win when Krieg broke free of what would have been another Thomas sack to throw the game winning touchdown to receiver Paul Skansi .
Seattle's 1990 NFL Draft is notable in that they not only acquired a future Hall of Famer in Cortez Kennedy but they grabbed multiple time Pro Bowl RB Chris Warren in the 4th Round. Warren would play in Seattle until the end of the 1997 Season becoming Seattle's all-time leading rusher on his final carry as a Seahawk, passing Seahawks Ring of Honor member Curt Warner with 6,706 to Warner's 6,705 (since broken by Shaun Alexander 's 9,429 Rushing Yards as a Seahawk). In addition, they got Pro Bowl defensive back Robert Blackmon and defensive mainstay Terry Wooden .
