But, a couple quick hits about the Seahawks game:
- That first drive was beautiful, but was helped by some San Diego mistakes (and penalties) and some lucky breaks (Ron Sims' catch).
- Hasselbeck looks to be recovered from his offseason surgeries, and has plenty of options at receiver.
- Ben Obomanu is the new D.J. Hackett. The Seahawks have too much depth at wide receiver. As much as I like Nate Burleson, Hackett and Obomanu have much smaller salaries, and could probably fill the #2 and #4 receiver spots just fine, and Burleson's money could be spent elsewhere...
- The first team defense still has holes to fill. They didn't stop the run and gave up too many first downs on 3rd and long.
- Seneca Wallace is still learning, but that's fine. If Hasselbeck declines in three or four years, Wallace should be ready to step in a la Steve Young.
- Loved seeing Darryl Tapp get a couple of sacks. Same with Leroy Hill. Five sacks total in the game. Like 2005.
- The offensive line looked strong, both first team and second team.
- Leonard Weaver didn't live up to the massive expectations everybody (including me) in Seahawkland is putting on him.
- I was disappointed not to see how good (or bad) David Greene is. Not sure if Holmgren had planned for him to play but kept him out in favor of letting Seneca Wallace redeem himself, or if the plan was to give Wallace (essentially) the entire game.
- I am sooooo ready for the regular season to start.
