Matt Hasselbeck likely to sit against Eagles

by JasonB on Oct 29, 2008 9:58 AM EDT in News Comment 19 comments

It looks as if the Seahawks' QB Matt Hasselbeck will miss his 4th straight game this weekend when the Eagles travel cross country to face the Seahawks.

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Matt Hasselbeck said yesterday that a doctor has not cleared him to play because of a leg problem stemming from a bulging disk in his back.

Hasselbeck is likely to miss his fourth straight game Sunday when the 2-5 Seahawks host the Eagles.

Hasselbeck's backup Seneca Wallace has a career 79.9 passer rating. He played well last week against the 49ers but has struggled mightily in previous games this season.

If seneca wallace beats us

I will gladly take up basket weaving the rest of the season.

Or maybe I’ll take a Sunday afternoon course on Colonoscopies…

Before we say anything like this, let's remember:

Bruce Gradkowski

Bruce was hardly the reason for the W however. McNabb threw 2 pick-6’s to Ronde Barber. I remember basically divorcing football after the 62 yard game winner, especially with taking the lead with 30 seconds left in the damn game. It took some time to let that one go.

That was maybe the biggest fluke in my Eagles fan life

but that doesn’t mean i don’t wish for Ronde Barber to be hit by a bus evertime I see him anyway… Tiki as well, but that’s a whole nother story

I’m pretty sure it was, too. Gradkowski was the Bucs 3rd-string QB who started that day. He really didn’t play well at all — the Bucs got all their points from $#@#ing Ronde Barber.

I’m just saying that we should never assume that just because a team’s backup QB plays, that the Eagles will win.

Time's yours, Andy.
