The Seattle Seahawks came to play yesterday. They wasted no time getting a comfortable lead against the struggling New York Giants. At the end of the first quarter the score was 21-0 Seattle and the game was pretty much over. While the final score was 42-30 Seattle, the game wasn’t this close. The Seahawks had a 42-3 going into the 4th quarter and stopped playing. The Giants scored some TDs in garbage time to make it slightly more respectable.

Yesterday, the Seattle Seahawks decided to part ways with veteran punter, Tom Rouen. The move was a tad surprising. Rouen has played for thirteen years, the last few in Seattle. He is now 38 and that may be a factor in the decision. Last season Rouen averaged 41.6 yards per punt.
