Happy Birthday to Mike Macdonald!

We at Seahawks Wire wanted to acknowledge and wish Seattle Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald a Happy Birthday! On this day 38 years ago, Macdonald entered this world. Now, he is entering his second season as head coach for the Seahawks.

It is almost impossible for the 12th Man to feel anything but optimism for the overall direction of the Seahawks with Macdonald at the helm. In his first year, he showed why Seattle waited until the Baltimore Ravens were eliminated from the playoffs to be able to hire him as their ninth head coach in franchise history.

Macdonald was hired to finally fix the lackluster Seahawks defense, and by the second half of his rookie campaign, they were among the best in the league. Seattle finished 10-7, their first double-digit win season since 2020, and barely missed out on winning the NFC West due to the 5th tiebreaker. Now, Macdonald (along with general manager John Schneider) has helped to remake the Seahawks in his image.

We at Seahawks Wire hope Macdonald and his family are enjoying this special day, wherever they may be!
