Three weeks into the 2006 season, Alexander broke his left foot in a game against the New York Giants.

"the curse" is crap. the chances of skill position players getting injured somehow is pretty high

Personally, i think the Seahawks do better without Alexander. if you watch any Hawks games, you notice that Alexander averages about 3 yds a run. then, they put in backup HB, Maurice Morris. the opposing team think they are passsing it, so Morris runs for about 7-20 yds. im not concerned at all.

The point is.. john madden should put himself back on every game... he saves players....
and p wait until they start suspecting the running back.. he will be stopped.

well, for the first time in years, the seahawks have a multi dimesional offense. now, they have receivers. after the figure out the running back, then we set up in 4 receiver slots.
