Still Want To Sign Alexander?
The Seahawks managed to pull out a near-miraculous 13-10 win by driving the length of the field with 2 minutes left and then getting an interception with 5 seconds left on the clock. This set up a 50-year field goal attempt which they made. Their offense looked pretty miserable today in the rain. That is especially true of their running game. Seattle rushed for a total of 72 yards, with Alexander getting only 61 of those. He averaged less than 3 yards per down. Dallas obviously has a really good run defense but it makes me wonder if Shaun Alexander is really the amazing player he seems to be or if he is just the product of a really good situation. Not everyone gets to run behind Walter Jones.

Yeah, I still want to sign Alexander. He put up 61 yards against a damn fine defense. That's a pretty good showing. Plus, he ripped off ten yards right when the 'Hawks needed it on that long drive for their touchdown.
He didn't have the best day possible, but one day doesn't tell me how good a back he is.
