As you say, one bad game, does not a habit, or career make!

While many of these sites are linked to channel 9, the story continues to gain a little traction...

Palmer looked like a QB who isn't super talented make his debut in the NFL.

I am going to give him a pass on this one because the first time out always sucks - especially for a QB.

That baptism by fire is sometimes what young QBs need to get their heads on straight.

Palmer is a guy in reality who was lucky to even be drafted.

I find it comical that some people are ready to cut the guy after his NFL debut.

Let's look at the reality of it. He was a low draft pick, he's very raw and this was no big secret when he was drafted. He definitely needs time to develop. I guarantee you the coaches are not in panic mode after seeing him play last night. They know what they've got in him, they've seen him up close and personal for months now. He's definitely a project and he was seen as this from day 1. I'm really not sure what people were expecting from him last night.

Can anyone tell me why Seattle needs a back-up? Didn't Wallace come in last year and play pretty well when Hasselback was hurt? Or does he want to change positions?

they want to use wallace as a WR more and they dont think he is that great of a QB. They rather have a vet and wallace as the WR. Make him more into a ARE kinda deal.

Maybe Joe Gibbs wants to trade Mark Brunell for a Toyota?

On another note. I bet Brunell stays in Washington. I just don't see Gibbs letting his boy toy go with out a decent 3rd string QB on the roster.

See this summary of their game last night from AP wires. Under 50% comp. & 2 picks, and that's against the scrubs! Ok, maybe his recievers dropped a lot, it is a rainy seattle tradition since Largent retired, but still these nos. are hard to justify in a preseason game.

SEAHAWKS 19, RAIDERS 14: Marquis Weeks ran 11 yards for a touchdown in the fourth quarter to lift host Seattle. Seneca Wallace, playing into the fourth quarter while starting quarterback Matt Hasselbeck sat out his second complete game this preseason, was 12 for 26 for 181 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions.
Daunte Culpepper completed 11 of 19 passes for 108 yards and led visiting Oakland to its only touchdown.
