Hasselbeck and this offense seem to play much better at home
Not really. Thy had no offense at all against SD in the second half. Something like 65 yards and 1 first down. Hass isn't capable of it anymore.
After the bye week, they are at Chicago. Excellent chance Hass stinks it up again. Is it Whitehurst time in week 7 vs. AZ?
I don't know... if the majority of Seahawk fans had their way he would.

Anything to see here if it happens?Seattle has an attractive fantasy playoff schedule, but to say Whitehurst is unproven is an understatement.

At this point I would really shy away from Seahawk players unless they are playing at home. This team is a mess on offense right now. The knock on CW after TC and the pre-season is that he has no touch and can't throw the short or middle routes, along with the O-Line is very bad, and no running game.On the flip side, Hass can't (or won't) throw the deep ball. If CW starts... week 7 is a great call. Last two games have been crap, and the Bears will most likely destroy them.
 
I am a big fan of Matt Hasselbeck, but even I think its time to try somethign new...and hell, if it does fail, at least we have a shot at Andrew Luck or Jake Locker.

 
Somehow, and completely unintentionally I have ended up with 4 Seahawks on my 15 roster team. I mean I targeted BMW in the draft but really surprised how a season turns out. Starting all four today out of 10 available positions.

Weird how a season turns out. I wanted nothing to do with this team. Yet...................

See my sig.

 
This reminds me of the game back in the 90s when Nebraska came to play the University of Washington. D-linemen Peter and Wistrom hit Brock Huard so hard and so many times it was painful to watch. Huard was never the same again.

 
Seattle QB Hasselbeck out Sunday vs Giants

15 minutes ago

Wash. (AP)—If the New York Giants are going to add to their knockout list of quarterbacks, it won’t be Seattle’s Matt Hasselbeck(notes).

Hasselbeck, Seahawks starting QB, is out for Sunday’s game against New York with a concussion. Seattle coach Pete Carroll made the announcement Thursday that Hasselbeck had not been cleared to play. Charlie Whitehurst(notes) will make the first start of his career.

“I think it’s a little more serious than I thought. I visited with Matt after the game and stuff and I didn’t realize there was anything going on. Not till Monday did we really … there were some symptoms and stuff like that and then we took it very seriously,” Carroll said. “I’m surprised a little bit, but it’s real. That’s good for me to understand it better, too.”

Carroll said Hasselbeck would still need to be cleared under the league-mandated concussion testing in order to play next week at Arizona.

Hasselbeck suffered his concussion late in last week’s 33-3 loss at Oakland. Carroll said Monday and again Wednesday he hoped Hasselbeck would be cleared and able to play against the Giants.

Instead, it’ll be Whitehurst, who was brought to Seattle in a trade with San Diego in the offseason, but has never thrown a pass in a regular-season game.

“The circumstances are good,” Whitehurst said. “We’re playing a good team. Playing at home. It’s all you can really ask for. I plan on going out there and executing and helping this team win.”

Outside of three snaps in garbage time last week, Whitehurst gets his first opportunity. Whitehurst spent his first four years in San Diego as the third-stringer behind Philip Rivers(notes) and Billy Volek(notes).

The Seahawks acquired him in March for a swap of second-round picks in the 2010 draft and an undisclosed 2011 selection.

“He’s ready,” Carroll said of Whitehurst. “I’ve talked to Charlie from the first day he got here that he’s coming here to play football. Nothing else. He’s not coming here to be a backup or to do anything other than to make himself a spot. He has done a fantastic job up until this point. He’s done everything that we’ve asked of him and we’re real excited to see him play now.”

The Seahawks will face an imposing Giants defense that has knocked out five quarterbacks this season and had 10 sacks against Chicago in Week 4. Seattle’s banged-up offensive line allowed eight sacks of Hasselbeck last week in Oakland.

“I’ve got a lot to worry about. I’m not going to worry about that. I’m confident in the guys up front,” Whitehurst said. “They can do their jobs and I know what they’ve done to quarterbacks this year, but we’re confident we’re going to go out there and play well.”

 
Hasselbeck has gone 10 straight quarters and 97 consecutive passes without throwing an interception.
I'm sick of hearing this
CBJ fan? :lol:
More like it felt like a jinx. I'm excited to see Whitehurst. I know there's a lot of optimism out there, but I still can't see this team making any kind of a run even if they do eek their way into the playoffs. The wildcard that is Whitehurst at least gives a chance for improvement.
 
GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Only a cracked bone in his left wrist slowed Matt Hasselbeck on Sunday. The Arizona defense certainly didn't.

Hasselbeck threw for 333 yards and a touchdown, and Mike Williams had the biggest game of his rejuvenated NFL career Sunday in the Seattle Seahawks' dominant 36-18 victory over the Cardinals.

Hasselbeck, who sat out last week's game with a concussion, cracked a bone in his left wrist on a quarterback sneak late in the second quarter. He didn't start the second half, but returned in the third series of the third quarter.

His wrist was in a cast after the game, but he said he was hopeful to play at New Orleans next weekend. Coach Pete Carroll said the injury "looks to be manageable."

Anyone think this is a trap game for Atlanta this week? Traveling cross-country, looking ahead to New Orleans, Atlanta is .500 on the road, Seattle is tough at home, Williams/Obo healthy at WR...?

 
Per Jay Glazer:

What a great comeback story: I'm hearing SEA is about to agree to terms on a new 3-year extension for WR Mike Williams.

Seattle already beat the Bears, beat the SB champs, and still almost double digit dogs. :unsure:
Kudos to Hasslebeck. He has been good for the franchise and Saturdays game was his last hurrah.I actually think the 9.5 points opening line is way too low though. Many times this year the Seahawks have lost games by doubt digits and they will be facing a rested and healthy Bears team who unlike the Saints won't take the Seahawks lightly and they are a hungry team.Hasslebeck won't play that good again. His best two games this year came against the Saints but he has been mostly bad this year. This game has blowout for Bears written all over it.
 
rebuilding.
Rebuilt in 1 season. A+ to the coaching staff for all the roster moves!!!
Since when is going from 5-11 to 7-9 rebuilt? Doesn't seem to be much of a difference to me. Congrats on getting to where you guys are, but beating an extremely hobbled Saints team doesn't call for the cockiness exhibited by a few Hawk fans on here. Get to the Superbowl or NFC championship before you start talking ####. There is a reason your double digit dogs going into Chicago. Even Cleveland beat NE this season.
