First quarter almost over Denver up 10-7. Orton to Stokley....and Hasselbeck to Butler.

shhhh...Is Butler playing in the slot?
as a kick returner.atleast it shows us that Matt's back is fineIf Jones dosen't get back soon Hasselbeck is going to get killed. Locklear is getting burnt bad.

Left-handed is different...Orton is different tonight
he just threw a left handed pass for an INTOrton is different tonight

To be fair, it was 4th down so it wasn't a terrible decision to just throw it up and hope to get lucky rather than take the sack.he just threw a left handed pass for an INTOrton is different tonight![]()
I was just going to post this, Hass can be had cheap and has arguably his deepest receiving corps in recent memory. As long as the back holds up he could be in for good things, he is one season removed from this:2007 SEA 16 352 562 3966 7.1 28 12 39 79 2.0 0 322 6My thoughts so far:
*** Matt Hasselbeck is healthy again, which makes him a no brainer solid fantasy QB2 on the cheap IMHO
Hasselbeck 16/23 171 2 not bad for one half behind a young/patchwork line.I was just going to post this, Hass can be had cheap and has arguably his deepest receiving corps in recent memory.

does forestt have a chance to take the starting RB job for JJ?Hasselbeck to TJ TD, Forsett looked really good on that drive.
Isn't Julius Jones out with an injury?The comments from the coaching staff have been that Jones will get the majority of the carries.My thoughts so far:
*** Deon Butler looks legit...I'm wondering if all this "Nate Burleson is back" hype is overdone
*** Eddie Royal is too low in my current projections, even if Orton sucks, he's going to be thrown to A LOT (assuming Marshall isn't a Bronco)
*** With the way they're spreading the ball around, Brandon Marshall doesn't seem long for this roster
*** Peyton Hillis is going to catch a lot of balls from Captain Check Down
*** LaMont Jordan looks like a 40-year old retired fullback, I can't see him making this team
*** Correll Buckhalter is going to be a productive fantasy option (flex/utility) until Knowshon has his legs under him
*** Brandon Stokley and Jabar Gaffney are both going to see plenty of targets, I don't see either being a compelling fantasy player as a result
*** Paging Denver's TEs, paging Denver's TEs
*** T.J. Duckett is getting all the work with the 1s...and Duckett was a Knapp/Mora guy in Atlanta, Julius Jones isn't someone I want to touch
*** Justin Forsett seems to be the more likely "lightning" to Duckett's "thunder"

I really doubt it. One carry for 3 yards....but 6/54 rec.Jones has an undisclosed leg injury and has sat out all week, whatever that means.does forestt have a chance to take the starting RB job for JJ?Hasselbeck to TJ TD, Forsett looked really good on that drive.
i am a cowboy fan, never was impressed with JJI really doubt it.

"Back"? Back from what? His 2004 season where he barely managed 1000 yards? Or his 2007 season of 694 yards? Face it, the guy was never that great to begin with.*** Deon Butler looks legit...I'm wondering if all this "Nate Burleson is back" hype is overdone
JJ is not playing 2nite. Whatever your personal opinioni is, he will be the main guy here. Duckett will be the short yardage/goalline guy.Forsett could emerge as the 3rd down back here possibly.*** T.J.

Mora has said all the right things, sure. But I think the combination of Jones' history of mediocrity (I'm giving mediocrity a bad name) and his injury history makes it hard to buy into coachspeak this time out. I still think Jones will lead the team in carries, but I don't see him getting many touches that matter to fantasy owners (Duckett with the short yardage, Forsett with the 3rd down passing situations).Isn't Julius Jones out with an injury?The comments from the coaching staff have been that Jones will get the majority of the carries.My thoughts so far:

I don't know how other Hawk fans feel, but I can't get excited about Duckett. Someone that big and he runs like he's in quicksand.JJ is not playing 2nite. He will be the main guy here. Duckett will be the short yardage/goalline guy.Forsett could emerge as the 3rd down back here.*** T.J.

Not crazy about him either. I would feel no better calling him thunder than I would Julius lightning.Unless some deal is made, I think it's set in stone of the roles of the RB's. 3rd down back is up in the air, but Forsett could be that guy.I don't know how other Hawk fans feel, but I can't get excited about Duckett.

Devin Moore out played Forsett last week so I would like to see how he responds.Time to start the official Forsett hype trainI don't see how the Seahawks can keep this kid on the bench. He reminds me of Slayon last year.
I would be worried about the offense...most of the first string played 2.5 quarters and only produced 10 points, and couldn't score at the goaline.Defense for Denver looks really, really bad still. LBs are running into each other and not sure of their assignments.And now when there is a challenge McD should make he sits on the flag. I know it is pre-season, but your defense is struggling. Stand up for them on 4th and 2 and throw that flag. Instead your team has just given up 17 straight.
Got hit late and low--Brandstater in for Denver. Simms in some pain and they are looking at his ankle.....Sims limps off.
