Seattle Seahawks quarterback Tarvaris Jackson apparently isn't grading on a curve. When asked how he would assess his performance in his first year as a starter with his new team, Jackson didn't hold back to the Seattle Times. "We're a 2-5 team, and a quarterback's (job) is to help the team win as much as possible," Jackson told the newspaper on Friday. "We've still got a lot of work to do, but 2-5 is failing. So I guess I got an 'F' right now." Although plagued by a pectoral injury for the last few games, Jackson has completed 120 of his 197 passes for 1,335 yards with six touchdowns and six interceptions this season. The 28-year-old Jackson will look to right the ship when the Seahawks face the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday.
