Players finished practice yesterday looking forward to a day off with family and friends. Fans will bemoan the lack of news. Coaches will look at the off-day as a chance to huddle and review what they have seen thus far so they can make some decisions. Quarterbacks Do not be...
Seattle had its second padded practice, and the intensity returned in a hard-hitting session that had plenty of talking, mostly from the defense. This practice also marked the debut of new wide receiver Braylon Edwards. OFF THE CUFF Matt Flynn will be your starter As I wrote here earlier, I...
There will be a series of articles, both local and national, within the next few days or weeks that will announce that Matt Flynn has won the Seahawks quarterback competition. These articles will tell you that Flynn had the job as soon as he signed that contract. They will poke...

Seattle had its first padded practice of training camp today on a cold Monday morning. The quarterback race continued to take shape and some others trends have started to emerge.

Russell Wilson has yet to play a snap in the NFL, but his four years of college play should at least be directionally interesting. I compiled Wilson’s college splits from cfbstats.com and...
