Interesting Tidbits


Wanted to share this on the front too, like I did last week:

-ROY Candidate Tatupu had 3 T, 1 A, 1 Sack, 1 Int, 1 FR
-ROY Longshot Hill has 5 T, 1 A
-Seahawks Gained 444 total yards, not including sacks (or sack)
-Seahawks backups lost the total yards battle 139-96 to the 49ers team (please note our backups played 1 quarter, while SF starters played the whole game)
-Hass threw and completed passes to 8 different receivers
-Hass stat line: 21/25, 226 Yards, 4 TDs, 1 Int
-Seahawks swept their division for the first time in franchise history, 6-0 (before the conferences realigned, there was 5 teams in their division, meaning 8-0 was a sweep)
-Seahawks set new record winning streak of 9, topping their franchise best 8, set in 1984
-SF Alex Smith has still not thrown for a TD in his career
-Seattle held the opposing run game to a player-high, 33 yards (Barlow), and 62 total rushing yards
-Shaun Alexander has rushed an NFL record 9 straight games with 100 or more yards against a division opponent
-Seattle held SF to the lowest amount of Total Yards in Seahawks history
-This was the 2nd highest back to back scoring in Seahawks history, behind 1988 Broncos, 42-14; Raiders, 43-37 in back to back games
-This was the highest margin of victory in back to back games in Seahawks history, breaking the old record by 11 points
-Hasselbeck completed 84% of his passes, 2nd highest in franchise history by a QB

A little story on Hass, speaking of him, from the PI:

After Hasselbeck took a big hit in the first quarter, center Robbie Tobeck congratulated him in the huddle for taking one for the team. "I do remember him saying that, I but I wasn't really in a humorous mood," Hasselbeck said. Well, maybe he can smile about this line from Tobeck. "Despite the way he dresses, he is tougher than he looks," Tobeck said of Hasselbeck.

  1. This morning, Ditka on Mike and Mike begrudgingly acknowledged that Seattle took care of its business with the Eagles while the Giants struggled, and that if this team were in NY or Chicago, they'd be all that was being talked about.

    Then he went on and referred to our rookie middle linebacker as Tuiasasopo! Thankfully, Mike and Mike knew is name was Tatupu.

    Sheesh!

  2. Not sure how many of the "young guns" on the blog remember vinyl, but I thought this post required an appropriate graphic, as the Seahawks continue to break records!

  4. "This was the highest margin of victory in back to back games in Seahawks history, breaking the old record by 11 points "

    I wonder how that stat compares to the NFL at large?

    And what about Joe Tafoya, what amazing thing did he do? He has to have done something amazing, he's Joe Tafoya! I heard Joe Tafoya can fold a piece of paper 8 times. I also heard Joe Tafoya built a time machine and went back in time to stop the JFK assassination. As Oswald shot, Joe met all three bullets with his bicep, deflecting them. JFK's head exploded out of sheer amazement.

    Actually Joe had two tackles, but still, thats something...
