With regard to Hasselbeck, don’t you think that his lack of weapons is the real issue. He has been so consistent (at least from an outsider’s perspective) over the past few years, it seems that he should get a little slack here.

I think so but also at issue seems to be a lack of confidence, this can easily be tied to the backup recievers and not having timing down and so on, but watching every game the decision making is well below the Hasselbeck standard and frankly not good enough to win regardless of weapons. The expectation here is that this team needs to make the playoffs after that all bets are off but being well short of that goal creates questions where in ares that weren’t questioned previously and oddly this year more than others seems the year coach’s in general have been willing to go away from their starting QB’s.

Do I think this is imminent in Seattle? no “how much longer can we wait on Matt’s 57.7 Qb Rating” is a real question Seattle fans are asking especially when you take into account the competition we faced Buffalo, San Francisco, and St Louis are all known to have secondary weakness but they looked lock down against Matt albeit with backup recievers.

Personally I always liked Matt, but just assume you have a healthy Seneca Wallace the pre-seasons top rated passer and scramble threat, at the end of the bench or Matt going into this game, with a 1-3 record honestly I’m not sure I’d want the ball in Matt’s hands anymore and thats the problem right now…

Charlie Frye vs Trying to do to Much, call it the Seth Rosenfaul disease as a backup if Charlie just protects the ball takes what is there and times his shots we’ll be ok but too often backups try to make plays or play outside themselves to early, if Charlie does this well we lose if he can resist we have a shot.

He did get all the reps druing practice but it was generally thought that Matt would be healthy emough to play come Sunday.

Holmgren came short of declairng Frye the starter saying that “it will be a gameday decision”
