The Seahawks have no apparent intentions on bringing Matt Hasselback back this season. This has been speculated for sometime now, but is it the right move. No one cam deny he has had lack luster performances over his career, but will they improve with Tavaris Jackson? I say absolutely not, but they did give him $8milliom over 2 seasons which is mind boggeling. Jackson hasn't really shown much to make me think he is a worthy back up let alone a starter. Maybe this move is to make sure there a bottom 2-3 team in an attempt to grab that top spot for Andrew Lock next season.
There is some interest with in the Seahawks organization to sign Matt Leinart, which would reunite Carrol and him from there USC days. Though Leinart was a huge dissapointment in Arizona, I feel this could help jump start his career. The Seahawks have Mike Williams who seems poised to have another solid season, as long has someone can get him the ball. The winner in all this is Hasselback if he finds a new home. Maybe Cleveland? Him and Holmgren have a history, and I think McCoy would benefit from a veteran guy to learn from, and possibly watching for a season or two and being patient. But seriously this is a move I don't think makes the Seahawks better.

The worst franchise in pro sports
The worst franchise in pro sports
As a Cleveland Browns fan this post should make me happy, but as a sensible sports fan I realize my Beloved Cleveland Browns probably aren't to far behind them.
With that said, Cleveland is in a much better position for the future and for now. Cleveland has a great Offensive line, great runningbacks (who are actually fullbacks) a young but good secondary linebackers, and good young skill players to develop. Colt McCoy may not turn out to be the answer only time will tell, but I'm confident that he will be successful in a offense that will probably run 55-60% of the time.
In cincinnati's case, there a team that is now 2 years removed from the playoffs. I honestly feel that Playoff lose to the Jets set this team back. The T.O pick up effected them in a bad way, Ocho isn't happy I wonder if he will be a Bengal much longer. I'm anxious to see what happens with Carson Palmer, everyone is talk about Kevin Kolb, untested and I feel overrated, Palmer hasn't played for a great team but he is accurate.
Palmer would be a great fit in Minnesota ad Seattle, Seattle has the extra picks to make a trade happen. And remember they made that playoff run and will have some extra swagger going into this season!
I'm curious what you guys think about the situation in Cincy, will they trade him or be to stubborn? What will it take for them to turn around the franchise?
