Watch: Why Seahawks fans are 'freaking everywhere' in Germany
The Seattle Seahawks are technically the road team for Sunday's game in Germany against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. However, any well-traveled fanbase can tell you that being "home" on the schedule doesn't necessarily give you home-field advantage.
Peter Schrager at NFL Network appeared on "Good Morning Football" and explained why Seattle fans are "freaking everywhere" in Munich this weekend, which could translate to an extra home game this season.
He said NFL games first aired on the German national television station during the mid 2010s. It was they heyday of the Legion of Boom and Russell Wilson, which had back-to-back Super Bowl appearances.
"The Seahawks locally here in Munich were often times the team that you would see in the big NFL game," Schrager said. "So there's a generation of football fans here in Germany who were raised watching the Seahawks as their national market game."
Schrager expects Allianz Arena to feel like a game at Lumen Field, complete with all the 12th Man's chants.
