Seattle Seahawks Blog - Hawk Blogger: Highlights Of 2011
It has been among the most eventful years in Seahawks history, and it seemed worth some reflection. Here is a collection of stories that capture some of the highlights of the last 12 months.
Run, Ricardo, Run! | HeraldNet.com - Seahawks blog
There's a chance that the Seahawks could be without receiver Ben Obomanu this weekend because of knee injury (Obomanu didn't practice again on Thursday). If that is the case, that means Seattle would have only four healthy receivers, including rookie Ricardo Lockette, who Seattle signed off its practice squad only two weeks ago. Lockette, who went undrafted out of Division-II Fort Valley State University, has come a long ways from when he was just a really fast guy in training camp.
Browner vs. Fitzgerald is a matchup to watch - Daily Links Blog - MyNorthwest.com - The Seahawks' and Cardinals' elimination from playoff contention has raised questions about each team's motivation heading into their Week 17 matchup.

NFL Pro Bowl snubs: Who got left out? – Audibles
The Pro Bowl rosters announced Tuesday will wind up looking nothing like the final rosters for the game on Jan. 29. Between players dropping out for "injuries" and those ineligible to participate because they’re headed to the Super Bowl the following Sunday, the NFL will cycle through a ton of alternate picks before kickoff — players pulling out of the Pro Bowl has become a bigger annual tradition than the game itself.

On Dec. 18, 1988, the Green Bay Packers took the field to play the Phoenix Cardinals (yes, they weren't always the Arizona Cardinals) at Sun Devil Stadium in Tempe, Ariz., knowing exactly what their fate was.

Final Word: NFC West - NFC West Blog - ESPN
Draft order disorder. Every NFC West team but San Francisco faces a potential significant shift in draft order based on Week 17 results. The St. Louis Rams will emerge with the No. 1 overall pick if they lose to the 49ers while Indianapolis defeats Jacksonville. The Colts will pick first if they lose, or if the Rams win. The winner between the Arizona Cardinals and Seattle Seahawks will finish 8-8 instead of 7-9, producing likely a swing of several spots in the order. The 7-9 team with the easiest strength of schedule will pick ninth. The 8-8 team with the strongest strength of schedule would pick 20th.
