I gave him credit for that game, I believe the defense did more than him in San Francisco but I gave him credit for that game, he played a good game. It was not a Pro Bowl performance IMO, I stand by that. But if you want to say it was a great performance and he won the game last week, fine. You win. Think what you want to think about me with regards to Hass but no one is singling him out. I am much more interested in your claim that we are singling him out because that is BS and you know it. So now you're giving him credit, after you said he did nothing special. It was a great performance, everyone thought so. Not just me.

Is that a double standard? Probably but a fair one.
When Thurmond is in his 10th year as a Seahawk and a team captain and fumbles a punt return I expect a thread about it. Regardless if he's a rookie, he's still an NFL player and he should be able to catch an F'n ball!!!! Its not like he got burned by a pro bowl receiver on a difficult route. All he had to do was catch a ball. You want to talk about 7th graders, I know a couple JV middle school football players that have never dropped a punt return.

Game two in a one and one season while you are tied for first place in the division is not the time to panic

If others thought it was great or special, fine, I thought it was good and gave him credit for as much last week. I am done with this line of debate. We aren't singling him out anymore than he deserves, he is the QB, veteran, and captain. He deserves to be criticized for today and how he has played in recent history overall.

No, I wasn't praising his performance today. I said he had a bad game. But the entire team had a bad game. There should be a thread that says "Objective look at the Seahawks" not "Hasselbeck". I'm not trying to be a homer, or a jerk.. I just wish we would stand behind our QB instead of throwing him under the bus all the time.

If it bothered you that much, start a thread, bet it gets to 3 pages really quick because Thurmond did screw up, just did not surprise me when he did. I have expectations for Matt and Curry so those are the one's I talk about (and notice I started neither thread about them either, just responded to others posts).

I respect your opinion and give credit to your arguments. I'm just bothered by the lack of support Hass gets. When he has a good game, no one really cares. But when he plays badly, people come out of the woodwork just to trash on him. I feel like this would be the case for ANYONE under center. There is no more loyalty. QB's arent human beings, no, they're professional athletes who should never make mistakes and have an off night.

Zowart,
If you actually look around this board, find the thread I started, you will notice something, the one I started was positive and optimistic about this season.
Even my first post in this thread was far from an attack of Matt, Matt is an average NFL QB and I expect him to play like today often and like last week often, neither is good enough to win in the playoffs IMO, I want a QB that can win in the playoffs, Matt ain't that guy anymore IMO.

IMO I wish "stash" would give it a rest. history told the tale in all other aspects of life, why should hawks football be any different?
like others have said, I'm a hassle fan, but not one with blind faith in his future play.
I hate to say it but I too would like to find out what we have in cbj before we beat this horse and gloss over looking for the magical draft pick. btw if you think it's Locker you're not sober.
really like the guy but, no, I just think this team needs new blood behind center.

really like the guy but, no, I just think this team needs new blood behind center. Well you're right. I just have a soft spot for Hass because I see him around Kirkland all the time, he use to stop by the Bank of Washington (I use to work there) and do his personal banking. He's a really nice dude and even remembered me by name (or at least I think he did, and wasn't just reading my name tag). Hass would sign footballs, jerseys and random crap for me when he came in. So yeah, I'm just a homer. I hate seeing a genuinely great guy get trashed on by the fans. I feel like he's been limited by his weapons and protection over the last couple years. But.. He's 35 years old. I know he's not in the future for us, just wish the 'haters' would lay off and let him do his thing.

Hass hasn't really developed a chemistry with this receiving core....and with Carlson, both Hass and John are in new offensive schemes. The pre-season just wasn't enought time to develop the chemistry...and hell...with the front office continually changing things, it didn't help things any (NOT that I am complaining....I think the FO did what they needed to do...huge kudos to them for having the cojones to do it).
I think the "long" reads are basically Hass not comfortable with the WR's and their pattern running. He just doesn't seem confident in them, even though they appear to be catching almost anything catchable that is thrown their way.
This is just my opinion, and what I think I'm observing. I think after the 4th game (I know, I know.....we shouldn't have to wait that long) we should see some improvement. I agree with the 4th game comment, and that's where it ends for me. The OP said it best and I agree 100 percent.We get on here and talk about "schemes" Matt being comfortable etc. He's a QB in the NFL, he SHOULD be comfortable with his receivers by now.They run a pre determined route...he's supposed to get the ball to them.Nothing more, nothing less.Just like when you were in the backyard as a kid.And Mr Carlson? 3 years in the pros isn't enough for those two to get it together somewhat?Matt was unable to make the throws today and that makes me a sad panda.I would be willing to bet that Whitehurst is in the very near plans and its not because I'm suicidal over the donkeys slapping us around.We had our chances to be in that game.3 turnovers against a good team that dosent lose at home very often will make for a very long day.what I'm saying is Pete Carroll is going to have to find out what he has in CBJ before the end of this season so he can "win forever", because Matt Hasselbeck isn't going to be here.

We wasted a pick on him and we'll still be looking for our qb of the future next year and the year after until someone figures this out. Hasselbeck is our only option at winning now. How do you know this about Whitehurst without ever seeing him in a regular season situation? If you want to compare Whitehurst with Hasselbeck you put them under center with the same supporting cast. That's not something that's been done to this point. 1000% true. the "confirmed guesstimates" are ridiculous. we know nothing about cw, and that's the only truth I'm afraid. we need to, it's a new hawks era and we need to keep building. there's no Hass hate, just realistic hawk matters.

My two cents - my problem with Hass today wasn't so much that he had a bad game - everyone has them.
It is that his glaring problems that will not go away were at the forefront.
Two of the biggest problems today were:
His arm is poor. It not only cost us interceptions but other completions. Yes he has great touch, but at this stage of the game - he can't make all the throws. This is why guys can sit on routes because many of the deeper throws hang and allow time for the safety to break it up. It is either this or he frankly underthrows the receiver. The pick to Dawkins was exactly this.
He is a veteran but he has always had a penchant for making frantic decisions or Favre-esque cowboy-like decisions. 4th and 2 corner endzone to Deion Branch is a perfect example. Maybe Bates called that - but I doubt it.
He is like Jeff Garcia. A winner for the most part but isn't a total package.
For one, I have to see if CBJ can get experience and play or if we need another option at QB. We are young and have some of the pieces. Hass is NOT a long-term answer.

I agree. Hass will not be here next year. CBJ will have to play to see if we draft QB or not. We are rebuilding, not gunning for a deep playoff run.

I have said that Hass will be replaced before mid season..I stand by it. CW could have done everything that Hass did (good) today. Look, I love me some Hass, he was a good QB and will always be an even better person IMHO.
BUT alas...its time to move on. Bench Hass, get CW in there. Hass is a team player and he'll be a good "coach" to CW and a viable back up in case Chuck goes down.
Time to pass the torch, go with youth and start the growing pains.

the first interception should never have been thrown because two plays before there should have been a rushing td by forsett...those two bungled o-line moves prior to the pick weren't his fault and the hold, which did nothing to change the outcome of the play, brought that td back..i do peg the 2nd and 3rd one on him--on the last one i really don't hold too much anger because they were pretty much forced to pass pass pass and so that is usually a disaster waiting to happen to any team that far down with that little time left.

Something i was thinking about today....
Have we ever won a road game against a good team with Hasselbeck as our QB?

2003: Beat the favored SF team at the end of 2003, to make the playoffs.
2004: The Saints and Bucs were supposed to be good opponents early in 2004, and Seattle won both of those. They beat the the 8-8 Vikings and the 11-5 Falcons on the road that year too.
2005: Won 5 straight road games, but none of them finished with a winning record.
2006: Beat one team with a winning record on the road. Denver.
2007: Terrible season for playing on the road. Did beat Philly though, who finished 8-8. Philly didn't have McNabb though.
