While the Seahawks are losing, they are certainly not getting wtfpwned by any stretch of the imagination. We've already seen Bonehead Play #1 from Grossman, what with waving the ball around going "PLEASE! STRIP THIS FROM ME!" as he's getting swarmed over by Julian Peterson. Also, the Seahawks receivers are having more drops than Terrell Owens, I swear. Seahawks have had several potential first down conversions on 3rd down that got negated cause their receivers can't hang on to the ball.
Heh, penalty worked out OK for Seattle there. Chicago didn't even get a FG out of it now.
Edit: Ooops, Bonehead Play #1 from Hasselbeck there. What an awful throw, that was entirely his fault.
Still, Seattle is in a better position now than before that penalty negated the FG attempt. Chicago's got like 40 yards to go, no guarantee they'll even get into FG range. Even if they DO get a FG, not like Seattle has lost anything compared to before the penalty.

That INT wasn't Grossman's fault, Jay. He put it right to the WR, who let it bounce off of him and carom to the seattle D guy. Now, Hasselbeck's INT... That was ENTIRELY his fault.
Ouch. That was a sure TD pass that guy dropped. Agreed that it could've been a better pass by Grossman, but NFL-caliber WRs are supposed to make that kind of catch.
I dunno, they didn't really show us what the penalty was called on. This officiating crew has been calling a pretty good game so far, I think. Overall, they're letting them play, as can be seen by the fact that there were zero penalties called in the 1st half.
