I actually got the Seattle vs STL game televised here, and I cannot believe the dropped passes. I think there were 9 or something from Seattle. I couldn't believe it, how can Koren Robinson drop so many on his own? Hasselbeck probably could have had about 70 more yards and one mor TD I can think of (Matt Morris down the right sideline). That was a very frustrating game for me to watch, especially the end as I saw Bulger (who I benched) start putting up some great numbers.
Yes, unfortunately the recievers do that alot. If he had some decent recievers his numbers would be alot better.
QB: Favre, Hasselbeck
RB: F. Taylor,W. McGahee, D. Blaylock, N. Goings, J. Jones
WR: H. Ward, I. Bruce, D. Mason, Roy Williams, L. Coles
TE: J. Wiggins
Ah, welcome to the land of the illuminated, young initiate. Those of us in the NW have been enjoying Mr. Robinson's hands o' stone show for some time now.

Doesn't it seem like forever ago that Koren Rob was a top 10 WR in the fantasy draft ? If T.O. gets in a tiff with andy reid, he sure would look good in a seahawks uni next year.
I noticed the drops as well, and can sympathize with the Seahawks pain having watched Thrash and Pinkston for 3 years *cringe* Jackson looked fine though, and Alexander like a behemoth, but Robinson was just horrible. They shouldn't be starting a guy who can't be relied on to make routine catches on perfectly thrown balls.
In the SI NFL Preview (my yearly Bible), the article about the Seahawks was all about the dropped passes of the dynamic three... Koren Robinson, Darrell Jackson and Bobby Engram.
In the last paragraph, Bobby Engram talks about it.
I think we're going to be asked to step it up, and that's the way it should be. People talk about the passes we didn't catch, but they can't say we don't get open or beat press coverage or make plays or score touchdowns. All everyone talks about are the drops - and that's something we're going to correct.
From what I saw of Koren...he catches the ball too much with his body. His hands were right against his chest on one catch. Gotta get the hands out a little bit at least to keep it from doinking off the pads man.

Bobby Engram had his first "bad" game. He's actually the more dependable receiver and notorious for making 1st down conversions. It's just too bad yesterday's game was National.
Jackson and Robinson on the other hand..makes me appreciate Steve Largent all the more.
