Seahawks player of the game: Linebacker Ben Burr-Kirven

I knew that game was there, he just had to get well and be given the opportunity. BBK is more than just a good football player, he's a high quality individual that will make a very positive addition to the Seahawks' organization.

Hard to get excited about his numbers in a preseason game when the opponents mostly fielded their soon to be cut players . IMO

Funny how we disrespect the 4th preseason game yet people hold up things like college performance and senior bowl as excellent markers of ability.

All the guys in the 4th preseason game were college stars. They may not make NFL rosters but they are better competition than Appalachia Valley State.

Exactly. This is why we play preseason games, to determine who are the last 4-5 guys to make the 53. When a guy comes up huge in a game like this, you keep him. It's admittedly a bold move, but taking the safe route is a good way to go 7-9 in the regular season.
