Nashville, TN – The Tennessee Titans and Seattle Seahawks have met 18 times during the regular season and postseason. The Seahawks lead the series 10-8, although the Titans have won the lone playoff game between the clubs.
Seattle took five consecutive meetings from 1994 to 2005. Since then, the Titans won three of the last four. Each of the past nine meetings have been decided by seven points or less.
The Seahawks visited Nissan Stadium most recently on September 24th, 2017. The Titans used 115 rushing yards by DeMarco Murray and two touchdown passes by Marcus Mariota to pull out a 33-27 win. Murray picked up 75 of his rushing yards on a touchdown run.
The Titans and Seahawks last met at Lumen Field on September 19th, 2021. The Titans scored the final 17 points of the game to stun the Seahawks 33-30 in overtime. Titans running back Derrick Henry rushed for 182 yards and scored three second-half touchdowns, and Ryan Tannehill passed for 347 yards. Randy Bullock’s 36-yard field goal in overtime provided the winning margin.
In a memorable 2009 season finale at Lumen Field (January 3rd, 2010), Titans running back Chris Johnson became the sixth player in NFL history to reach 2,000 rushing yards in a season, and he also set a new NFL record with 2,509 yards from scrimmage in a season. His final carry of the day resulted in a one-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter to give the Titans a 17-13 win.
The Seahawks began playing as an NFC West expansion team in 1976. One season later, they were moved to the AFC West and played the then-Houston Oilers for the first time. The Oilers won the initial meeting (November 20th) by a 22-10 final score.
In a 1987 Wild Card Playoff game, the Oilers defeated the Seahawks at the Astrodome 23-20 in overtime. It was the Oilers’ first playoff victory since the 1979 season.
The Seahawks migrated from the AFC West to the NFC West to begin the 2002 season, when the league was realigned to eight four-team divisions. The same year Lumen Field opened. Prior to that the Seahawks played their home games at the Kingdome.
