Why are the Seahawks so stupid?
I don't understand why they won't make Shaun Alexander a long-term contract offer. Yes, I know they've put the franchise tag on him for this year but what is it about him that makes them seem so willing to piss him off and possibly lose him? He was second in the league in rushing last year, two pro-bowls and a td machine for them... and he's only 28. He has plenty of good production left.

He says he wants to stay in Seattle, he's the cornerstone of your offense and they don't act willing to do themselves a favor and lock up a great player at a key skill position just to save a little money for one year.... IF he even plays this year and isn't holding out.

I just don't get it.

I think part of it may be that they dont want to get locked into a long term deal on a RB that will be 28 before the sart of the season.

Still it seems like they could sign him to a deal that would be cap friendly to cut him after 2-3 yrs into it and still get him the signing bonus he wants.

This whole deal with Alexander seems to fit right into the WTF are they doing feel Sea has.

Alexander is a much better RB than Hasselbeck is a QB but they signed him to a long term deal.......I don't get it The only thing Hasselbeck has been consistent at is bad. He is only a medicore QB in the NFL and Alexander is a T.D. machine. WTF is wrong with Holmgren anyways???

Now that I'm thinking about it does this go back to the final game last season when Alexander could have had the rushing title and they didn't give him the ball on the last drive nearly as much as they could have?

I've been convinced for a long time now that Holmgren's success in Green Bay had a lot more to do with Favre than it did Holmgren. I think he's no better than an average coach.

Smoked? hell.. They were drunk on their ass.

am I wrong in thinking that was the draft we took Sly Morris and Alexander slipped down to Seattle?
Slipped? I'm pretty sure Alexander was the guy we wanted. It stunk to see Seattle take him just ahead of us (we REALLY needed a good back).

Especially since they treat him like a second class citizen now that they have him.

If we come to think of it now, aren't some of you happy that we didn't get Alexander?

I'd rather have Holmes too be honest.

Had the Chiefs got Alexander, we woulda never seen those 27 TDs, and those consistent 1500yd seasons from Holmes and so forth.

I'm happy the way that panned out. On the other hand, I'm terribly disappointed that we selected Bartee in the 2nd rd
