The Seahawks enter week two of three consecutive road games with a trip to Minneapolis this Sunday. It is the third time in franchise history that Seattle has had three straight road games on the schedule (1997, 2000). In each of those seasons, Seattle posted a 1-2 record during the stretch. Kickoff is slated for 10 am (PT) and the game will be televised on FOX (channel 13 in Seattle) and broadcast on 97.3 FM and on 710 ESPN Radio in Seattle. Calling the game for the sixth time this season on FOX will be Dick Stockton and Charles Davis.

This week’s game marks the 11th all-time meeting between the two clubs, with Seattle holding a 6-4 advantage. However, the two clubs have split the last four meetings since 2002, with one win each coming on the opponent’s home turf.

In the most recent meeting on October 22, 2006, Matt Hasselbeck was knocked out of the game (knee) and Seattle’s offense could not find its rhythm coming out of halftime tied at 10. The game featured a 95-yard touchdown run by Chester Taylor in the Vikings 31-13 win, ending a 12-game home winning streak by Seattle at Qwest Field.

Matt Hasselbeck needs four attempts and 1,107 yards to pass Seahawks Ring of Honor member Dave Krieg for the top spot as Seattle’s all-time gunslinger.
