More photos » by Ross Franklin - AP Browse more photos » Matt Hasselbeck threw the ball 38 to 40 yards in the air to T.J. Houshmandzadeh . Dick Stockton said that his shoulder and rib injuries had previously prevented Hasselbeck from airing it out. That's an interesting point. The pass was high angled and accurate, but slow. The angle gave Housh the best shot at catching it and unlike some...

We all know about the Madden Curse and how it turns a once healthy player into someone as brittle as a toothpick structure. Look at Shaun Alexander. He hurts his foot and seemingly forgets how to move more than two steps without falling down. But once a running joke and eerie string of coincidences has started affecting real people. EA Sports is taking all sorts of financial hits . Electronic Arts...

The Lions visit the Seahawks this weekend, so it's a given that Wings goaltender Chris Osgood is doing a lot of trash-talking, right? He must have called his buddy, Lions center Dominic Raiola, to brag about how the Seahawks are going to destroy the Lions, right? After all, Osgood has considered himself a die-hard Seahawks fan for years. He said he loved watching Dave Krieg, Shaun Alexander,...

Former Kansas City Chiefs coach Marty Schottenheimer talked Larry Johnson on his SIRIUS NFL Radio today. Luckily for us, Randy Covitz of the Kansas City Star t transcribed his comments on LJ. In short, Marty doesn't think one of the other 31 NFL teams would take a chance on him. Quotes after the jump. "Maybe he thinks that he can force his way out (of Kansas City)," he said. "Let me...

I have spoken extensively on Ray Willis and Max Unger , though less on Unger since he has become a pro. Today I want to talk about Seattle's running back situation. Seattle has been without a superstar rusher since Shaun Alexander broke...

From Tony Pike (Reading) to Shaun Alexander (Boone County) to Brent Celek (La Salle), the list goes on and on. They are all successful products of the fertile Greater Cincinnati feeder school system that has produced numerous NFL players.

Seattle needs better everything at guard. It is neither top heavy with talent nor deep with potential. It has one player with good potential that does not fit the scheme well and a host of generic offensive linemen and project players. Rob Sims : Once upon a time, Rob Sims was probably the worst player you heard too much of. Mike Holmgren was never satisfied with Sims. Maybe it was holdover hostility...

Green Bay's running difficulties have been somewhat overlooked this season. But more than a few people (myself included) have voiced their concern with the team's prospects running the football, especially in the red zone. Some members of this faction place the blame on Ryan Grant and DeShawn Wynn , who have been the primary running backs. These people want to see Wynn gone and Grant take a lesser...

More photos » by Elaine Thompson - AP Players like Matt Hasselbeck make but also create hard decisions. He has been undoubtedly Seattle's greatest quarterback ever, but when is too soon to prepare for the future? And how can you win when you know the player you acquire is not likely better than Hasselbeck's past? Browse more photos » Steve Hutchinson is an amazing talent. Seattle wasn't...

This is the season Seattle lost Steve Hutchinson and the foundation of its offensive line began to crumble. Walter Jones was still among the very best at his position, but he was 32 and would turn 33 less than a week after Seattle was bumped out of the playoffs. That run was paved in part by Tim Ruskell's first ever pick, Chris Spencer , replacing an effectively retired Robbie Tobeck , and rookie Rob...

I don't care who wins the Heisman, 'Bama player or not, but Ingram ought to be the front-runner. Either way, this was the second greatest performance I've ever seen in a single game by a 'Bama tailback, second to only Shaun Alexander in Baton Rouge in 1996.

Actually, I’m going to quote Cowherd, Jason Whitlock, and a number of other people, but I’ll start with Cowherd. What a faux scandal. From October 13, 2009, approximately 9:15 - 9:30 a.m. CST. This is not precisely verbatim, but pretty close. Rush Limbaugh wants to own the Rams and I am hearing from African-Americans…that they are [...] Related posts: Anti-Rush Limbaugh Petition...
