The Seahawks are not getting better with Matt Hasslebeck, back.  They may be getting worse.  Why is that?  Health?  Lack of Practice?  Hard to say but whatever the reason, the results stink.

From the Seattle times…

For the second time in two weeks, Hasselbeck and the Seahawks had the ball with a chance to win with a touchdown. For the second time in two weeks, Hasselbeck’s final pass of the game was picked off.

A week ago it was Arizona. This week, Washington’s Shawn Springs intercepted a ball Hasselbeck never should have thrown, punctuating a game in which he finished with his fewest passing yards in what projects to be his worst season since coming to Seattle.

“I will definitely look back on this one for a long time,” Hasselbeck said, “and regret it and realize how foolish it was.”

Hasselbeck is hurting. That’s clear just watching the man play. Seattle didn’t have a reception longer than 21 yards Sunday and he completed as many passes to running backs as he did to wide receivers.

But he hasn’t been healthy this whole season. He played all of one half of one exhibition game in August, was diagnosed with a bulging disk before he played a game and missed more than a month because of a nerve condition in his back. (Source)
