The Seattle Seahawks unveiled their 2025 schedule. Get home game tickets
Vivid Seats is the New York Post's official ticketing partner. We may receive revenue from this partnership for sharing this content and/or when you make a purchase. Featured pricing is subject to change. The Seattle Seahawks were so close to making the playoffs last season, they could taste it. In case you missed it, Mike MacDonald's club finished the year with a 10-7 record just like the NFC West Division leading Los Angeles Rams. To add insult to injury, Seattle split the season series 1-1 with LA. Still, due to NFL tiebreaker rules — notably 'strength of victory' — Matthew Stafford's squad advanced while the Seahawks stayed home. So, the team got busy this offseason. Over the past few months, general manager John Schneider signed Pro Bowl quarterback Sam Darnold and star divisional rival wideout Cooper Kupp along with veteran wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling and longtime Cowboys defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence. In their wake, they leave fan favorites Geno Smith, DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett behind, all of whom are no longer with the Seahawks. And, now, that the 2025 schedule has officially been released, we now know what the Seahawks' path to the postseason looks like this year. To get there, they'll need to come up big at home against divisional rivals San Francisco 49ers (Sept. 7) and Los Angeles Rams (Dec. 18) as well as playoff powerhouses like the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (Oct. 5), Houston Texans (Oct. 20) and a Nov. 30 showdown with the Minnesota Vikings (which should be a big game considering Darnold defected from the Purple People Eaters after a career year to come to Seattle). If you consider yourself part of 'the 12' and want to be there to witness the action live, tickets are available for all eight 2025 home games at Seattle's Lumen Field as of today on Vivid Seats. Not familiar with Vivid Seats? Vivid Seats is a verified secondary market ticketing platform, and prices may be higher or lower than face value, depending on demand. They offer a 100% buyer guarantee that states your transaction will be safe and secure and your tickets will be delivered prior to the event.

Canadian pilot survives emergency landing at sea
A Canadian pilot has recounted his harrowing experience surviving an emergency landing at sea after the engine of his Cessna 182 stopped midair over the Gulf of California. Mike MacDonald was surveying the sea for wildlife alongside a marine biologist on April 18 when the unexpected happened. "When the engine stopped, it suddenly became very quiet in the airplane. And it's that kind of gut-wrenching feeling like, oh-oh, this could be problems," said Mr MacDonald. With only a few minutes to react, Mr MacDonald executed a crash landing, saying the moment of the collision "felt like a sea monster reached up and grabbed us and pulled us into the water." The plane flipped upon crashing, breaking the windshield, with debris leaving cuts and scratches on his leg. Yet, Mr MacDonald remained focused, ensuring his companion escaped safely. "The airplane just disappeared into the waves. It was gone," he recalled, likening the sinking of the small aircraft to the Titanic's final moments. Despite the turmoil after hitting water, the pilot maintained his composure, guiding his passenger through the terrifying situation and trying to keep her calm. After some hours floating in the water, they were rescued by a nearby vessel which they managed to contact using a marine radio that floated with the crash debris. The Mexican Navy later transported them back to land. Mr MacDonald, now safe at home in Burnaby, Canada, underscored the importance of listening to airline safety instructions when flying and advised pilots to take extra emergency training. "When you get onto a major airline and they show you where the exits are and pay attention to that. There might be one right behind you that you're not paying attention to, that could save your life."
