Warren Moon believes Matt Flynn will be the Seahawks’ starter

Found August 03, 2012 on Pro Football Zone: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Matt Flynn,  Pete Carroll
TEAMS: Seattle Seahawks
AP Photo On Friday, former Seattle Seahawks quarterback Warren Moon told NFL AM (via NFL.com) that he believes Matt Flynn will end up being the starter in Seattle this season. “All these guys have the ability to play, but I think they brought in Matt Flynn to be their quarterback,” Moon said. “I think before it’s all said and done, he’s gonna be the guy that starts day one, but (head coach) Pete Carroll created this competition, and they’re going for it in training camp right now.” Moon believes that it would be better for the Seahawks to make a decision on who their starter will be going into the season earlier rather than later. “You hate to have a quarterback competition this late into the deal because your season is getting ready to start here in probably a little over a month,” said Moon. “And you want to have your quarterback solidified. Pete Carroll loves competition and the quarterback position, I don’t feel, should be one that you have competition at. You pick your guy, you...

Seattle Seahawks QB Battle

Via 60 Max Power O  |  August 03, 2012
The Seahawks have been searching for a new quarterback. Last year, they decided to part ways with then quarterback, Matt Hasselbeck. Hasselbeck struggled to match his best year under Seattle, which was the year of their Super Bowl run. In their search for a new QB, the Seahawks turned to Tarvaris Jackson. In my opinion, this was just a temporary replacement. In a full season...

Seahawks show loyalty be resigning Trufant

Via The Penalty Flag  |  August 03, 2012
Today’s NFL is a business and the players are the commodity. Football fans either follow a team or they follow players.

Seattle's 3-way QB competition filled with debate

Every day since the start of training camp, either Matt Flynn, Russell Wilson or Tarvaris Jackson have cycled to the podium in front of a Seahawks backdrop and been asked to handicap the three-way race to be the starting quarterback in Seattle.

Seattle Seahawks rookies are rising to the challenge

Via Seattle Sports Nut  |  August 04, 2012
While it is still the offseseason, and preseason looming right around the corner, some of the rookies are starting to step up.  Generally as a rule, unless it’s a first round pick, football teams are hesitant about starting rookies — not the Seahawks — not Pete Carroll.  This is a new age in football where stars are younger and younger, and better players are being started...

Seattle Seahawks: Braylon Edwards Better Not Blow This Opportunity

Via Football Nation  |  August 02, 2012
On Christmas Eve 2011, Braylon Edwards and his 49ers teammates went into Seattle and held off the Seahawks, improving their record to 12-3, and enhancing their odds at getting a first round playoff bye.   Three days after the game, in which he had one catch for nine yards in the second quarter, Edwards was cut by the 49ers.   It was a meek end to an equally meek run for one of...

Seahawks: Free agent Barron is turning heads.

Via Seattle Sports Nut  |  August 03, 2012
Free agent Alex Barron, former St. Louis Rams right tackle, has been making significant waves during training camp this season after being considered a “bust” in the NFL. Barron has had his issues since being drafted 19th overall in the 2005 draft and has seen his fair share of different clubs.  In all of his fives seasons, he has been with the Rams, the Cowboys, and finally...

Wagner being given shot at starting LB for Seattle

Via AP on Fox  |  August 02, 2012
(Eds: APNewsNow. Will be updated.) By TIM BOOTH AP Sports Writer Outside of his daily assignment of carrying in the shoulder pads and helmets of his veteran teammates, Seattle's Bobby Wagner doesn't feel much like a rookie. He certainly isn't being treated like a rookie on the practice field or in the meeting rooms, where he is being given first shot at taking over the...

Seahawks’ Receiving Corps Could Be A Darkhorse This Season

Northwest Sports Update A sportsbook review of the Seattle Seahawks’ camp so far may focus on the battle at quarterback, where Matt Flynn, Tarvaris Jackson and rookie Russell Wilson are reportedly all still in contention to start as they get ready for the preseason.

Seattle Seahawks 2012 Season Preview
