Hasselbeck's overrated true colors showing for everyone on national TV. Pathetic execution all game long, the rainbow he throws up while the team driving put the end of the game. Passes behind players, poor decisions. It was as bad last week, and ever snce the Superbowl, you get the sense he thinks every season is going to be a walk in the park.

Without Alexander running, he doesn't have the weapons he had 2 years ago, but he's a cocky stubborn selfish player who can't adapt within the game on his own, and needs (and always has) Holmgren holding his hand every step of the way. The selfish side shows when he makes plays like he did on the horrible INT at the end. He doesn't have the natural talent, and Homgren has staked his career in Seattle on him the last 5 years. Unfortunatly, he's making the same mistakes he did 4 years ago, and, looking at Holmgren's face, its pretty clear he's making those slefish errors on his own. He's puty when things are down and hasn't lead the Seahawks from behind very often over the past few years.

He folds in the clutch or when behind...he still had a chance last year in the NFC divisional game, but he gets sacked when he had an open guy whcih would've meant a field goal try...but the sack pushe them out, and the bears took the ball down the field and scored. Last week, a horrible throw at the end of the first half for an INT drains any mometum, and instead of being down 7, they're down 14 and don't score the rest of the game.

Seahawks are in trouble longer term...these issues such as Alexander getting booed for not running with much purpose, and selfish QB who's not maturing may have Holmgren's head on the block..and Holmgren's making some poor play seelction as a resul of his top paid, main weapons, not executing anywhere near the level they need to. Short term, they're ok because they're in the NFC west.
