That stretch from 2001–2005 was just insane.

Historically good. People can say what they want but at the time there weren't many guys who were more fun to watch.

I could get completely lost in that website there's so much interesting stuff -- but I agree video would be even better.

Wow. I understand the soft comment (plus that weird unmanly clapping sideline video in the playoffs) but am I reading this right? #37 had 97 touchdowns (rushing + receiving over 4 years (approx 24 TD a year for 4 years). That's impressive. I know there's a better 4 year stretch out there somewhere but an average of 24 TD over 4 years...Wow.

As soft as he was, if the goal line was involved he turned into a completely different runner. The problem I have with Alexander is knowing what he was capable of and watching him not give the same effort on 3rd or 4th and short as he did when there was the potential for a TD.

10 of his TDs were by 30 yards or more. I wonder how that compares to the rest of the "good" backs since few of them scored as many TDs as Shaun did.

The stupid thing is... had Alexander and Hutchison both accepted just 1 million per year less than what they both wanted and had Ruskell not screwed the pooch on the Franchise/Transition Tag.
Alexander would of had 2 more great year cementing him in the HoF.
Hutchison could have retired with Walter Jones cementing their legacy as possibly the most dominant Tackle-Guard combo in the history of the game.
Hasselbeck also doesn't get injured and brutalized because of interior pressure leaving him shell-shocked at times with happy feet throwing whirly ducks.
Seahawks likely would've had as good of a chance in 2006 and 2007 to go back to the Superbowl had Hutchison remained with the team and the trickle down effect of a dominant offensive line gave the Seahawks a certain toughness they lacked in post Hutch pre Carroll years.
How Ruskell mucked up everything is still beyond disbelief... he was horrible with using his draft picks and taking chances on big time players because of character issues which led to a rather undersized, soft team, pedestrian team.

I spend a LOT of time at PFR. And luckily, it looks like spreadsheets, so if a boss strolls by at work, they don't look twice. :mrgreen:
