Just posted at the press -gazette:
Quarterback Matt Hasselbeck has not been cleared to play against Green Bay, meaning the Seahawks will likely start Charlie Frye against the Packers.

Coach Mike Holmgren made the announcement after practice on Friday. Hasselbeck was again a spectator watching practice wearing a neon green baseball hat, while Frye took the majority of the snaps. Hasselbeck bruised his right knee last Sunday against the New York Giants.

Holmgren said earlier this week that Hasselbeck has to play for the 1-3 Seahawks. He says there still is a chance Hasselbeck will be cleared for Sundays game, but hes moving forward with plans that Frye is the starter.

As bad as our run defense is right now I don't think it really matters who the quarterback is.

Hasselback is a pro bowl QB. Him being out is sucks for the Seahawks, but is great news in GB. Right now, we need to get a wind, one more loss and our team may not be able to recover.

I agree. It doesnt matter if Hasselback is a pro bowl QB. We got beat by a rookie no problem last week.

Football 101: If the QB is not as good, the defense can commit more players to defending against the run. The Packers are much better off facing a journeyman rather than a Pro Bowl QB.

At the end of the Falcons game, when they were trying to run out the clock, we knew they were going to run and still could not stop them.

On a 2nd and 9 with with 1:49 left, Turner pushed the pile for 8 yards.

I understand what you're saying, but our run defense is REALLY bad. Plus, ANY quarterback can beat you if you give him all day to throw. We don't have a pass rush either.

Charlie Frye isn't all that bad either, I've been thinking for some time now he might develop to be a pretty good heir to Hasslebeck.

Like ya first we need to get to the playoffs of course but I want to know every week how my team will be matched up against other teams and there real qb so I could have an idea on how good we are or not

Mucky Tundra (4h) : rough injury for tank dell. guy can't catch abreak

beast (6h) : So far the college playoffs have sucked... One team absolutely dominates the other

beast (8h) : Well even if you weren't positive towards a guy, you wouldn't nessarily want to tell the media that (if they don't know about it)

Martha Careful (9h) : I think MLF want Love to look past the end half issues, and feel good about his play. Our coaches generally keep a very positive tone.

beast (9h) : I think a great running game will do that for most QBs

packerfanoutwest (9h) : Coach Matt LaFleur has said quarterback Jordan Love is playing the best football of his career.

beast (20h) : Oh, that's how you keep beating buckeye, with cheating

wpr (20-Dec) : and then there is Beast. Running away with it all.

beast (20-Dec) : As of tonight, 3 way tie for 2nd in Pick'em, that battle is interesting!

beast (20-Dec) : Lions vs Vikings could be the main last game as it could determine division winners or #1 vs #2 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Or if KC needs to win for the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Right now it looks like the only prime worthy games are Det-Minny and KC-Denver (if Denver can clinch a wild card spot)

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : The entirety of week 18 being listed as flex is weird

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Matt LaFleur today says unequivocally "Ted Thompson had nothing to do with the drafting of Jordan Love."

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Apparently, the editing is what pieces comments together. That Ted thing ... fake news.

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : LaFleur "opportunity that Ted Thompson thought was too good to pass up"

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Jordan Love pick was Ted Thompson's idea.

Mucky Tundra (19-Dec) : Kyle Shanahan on signing De'Vondre Campbell as a FA last offseason: “We obviously made a mistake.”

packerfanoutwest (19-Dec) : Alexander’s last season with GB

Martha Careful (18-Dec) : if I were a professional athlete, I would probably look to see who the agent is for Kirk Cousins and then use him

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : a lower case b

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : The real lie is how beast capitalized his name in his message while it's normally spelled with

packerfanoutwest (18-Dec) : haha that's a lie

beast (17-Dec) : Despite what lies other might tell, Beast didn't hate the Winter Warnings, it felt refreshing to Beast for some reason.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : whiteout uniforms in general are pretty lame and weak. NFL greed at it's worst

Martha Careful (17-Dec) : The Viking uniforms, the whiteout uniforms specifically absolutely suck

beast (17-Dec) : Thanks Zero2Cool, looks a lot better now

beast (17-Dec) : Seems like someone has a crush on me, can't stop talking about me

packerfanoutwest (17-Dec) : yeah beast hates the Winter Warning Unies

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Okay I'm glad to know it's not just something happening to me lol

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Zero, did you copy the Packers uniforms from last night and white out the board?

beast (16-Dec) : Oh crap, is the board going to the Winter Warning Uniforms too?!? It's all white on white right now!

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : WR Odell Beckham Jr is officially a free agent after clearing waivers.

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : Packers are 6th in sacks.

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : RB David Montgomery will undergo season-ending knee surgery.

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Dan Campbell on onside kick with 12 minutes left: In hindsight, wish I didn’t do that
