Seattle gets to play a depleted San Francisco offense. With three main players injured on their team, they shall take advantage on the defensive side- something they need. Matt Hasselbeck should have not trouble throwing against the 49er secondary, and if he struggles, Seattle has Chris Leak to fill in.

Seattle should come away with a win in this one.

QB Controversy in a Seahawks Win Over 49ers, 20-14

Week 3
San Francisco, CA

Matt Hasselbeck was injured early in the 2nd quarter of the game, after throwing 6 for 7. Chris Leak entered the game, and did not impress in place of Hasselbeck. Leak threw 54 yards and 2 interceptions on 7 of 12 throwing. "I was nervous," Leak said in a post game interview, "I really couldn't find my rythm."

By the middle of the fourth quarter, Leak was pulled out of the game. For who, you may ask? Savvy veteran, Trent Dilfer. Dilfer went 3 of 5 for 34 yards and a TD.

The game was a slow paced game, focused on short passes and getting the first down, a lot different from the 'Hawks first two shootout games.
Coach Holmgren said after the game, "It was a different pace, but a win is a win." When asked about the quarterback situation for next week, he stated "We'll have to test Matt (Hasselbeck) first, and if he isn't able to play, we will start Trent (Dilfer), however Chris (Leak) will get some playing time.

The 49ers had some quarterback problems themselves. Kellen Clemons, who started in place of the injured Matt Leinhart, was injured by Seahawks DT, Marcus Tubbs. The 49ers brought Seattle's own, Cody Pickett to replace Clemons. And just like Chris Leak did for Seattle, Pickett folded under pressure. Pickett threw 9 of 19 passses for 83 yards, a TD, and an INT.

The Seahawks rise to 2-1, have a bye in week 4, and play the Broncos in week 5.

GAME NOTES

The Seahawks had 4 quarterbacks play in the game; Hasselbeck, Dilfer, Leak and Seneca Wallace.
Matt Hasselbeck will under go tests after he tore his pectoral in the game.


QB Kellen Clemons dislocated his elbow, and will be out 4 weeks.



Chris Leak- 7/12, 54YDS, 2INT
Shaun Alexander- 79YDS, 19CAR
Darrell Jackson- 4REC, 26YDS, 1TD
Josh Brown- 2/2FG, 2/2XP

Antrel Rolle- 9TCKL, 1FF
Anthony Simmons- 4TCKL, 1SACK
Ken Hamlin- 4TCKL, 1INT


Cody Pickett- 9/19, 83YDS, 1TD, 1INT
Justin Fargas- 36YDS, 16CAR
Brandon Lloyd- 4REC, 63YDS

Derek Smith- 8TCKL, 1INT, 1TD, 1FF
Ronnie Heard- 7TCKL
John Engelberger- 6TCKL, 2SACK, 1FF
Ahmed Plummer- 6TCKL, 1SACK, 1INT

Week 5: AT Denver Broncos; Recap





A Hasselbeck-Less Seahawks Defeat Broncos, 20-14

Week 5
Denver, CO

With Matt Hasselbeck nursing an injury, Coach Mike Holmgren played small ball with Trent Dilfer at QB. Dilfer completed 15 of 19 passes for 136 yards and an INT. Chris Leak came in the middle of the 4th, and went 0 for 2. "I can still play," said Dilfer, "There's still some left in the old tank." His statistics were nothing to brag about, but he pulled out a win nonetheless.

Shaun Alexander led the offense, with 95 yards on 13 carries for a TD.

The highlight of the game was the Seattle defense, who allowed just 13 points. They forced Jake Plummer to a less than stellar performance of throwing 18 for 37 and a TD.

The Seahawks, now 3-1, will have a real challenge in week 6, as they play the 4-1 Vikings in Seattle, which has been labeled the "Game of the Week".

GAME NOTES

Matt Hasselbeck will start in week 6, perhaps his last stint as a Seahawk QB.
