The sky may not be quite this blue, but with a bye weekend for the Seattle Seahawks, the parking lot at Qwest Field may be this empty.

Due in large part to a number of critical injuries, the Seahawks are off to a pretty abysmal start at 2-4. Fan are hoping this bye week gives players a little healing time. And, a little time to works on the offense, too.

Opened in the summer of 2002, Qwest Field also hosts the Sounders, and college and high school teams, offering 67,000+ seat capacity. A roof covers 70% of the seating area, making it not too terrible in the rainy Seattle weather.

The Qwest Field Events Center hosts trade shows, special events, and fundraisers.

Here’s to a better game next weekend!
