San Francisco - Seattle Game Notes

Matt Hasselbeck (18 of 36 for 189 yards, 2 INTs) should improve after week 5, when he gets Branch and Engram back. He might be available for cheap right now, but should be a solid QB2 by mid-season.

Julius Jones (26 carries for 127 yards and 1 TD) was better than expected. This could help him retain the starting spot when Maurice Morris returns. Remember, the 49ers run defense is not very good, but this week's opponents (Rams) are even worse. After a bye week in week 4, the Seahawks face the Giants, Packers, and Bucs; so ride Jones for one more game, then see if you can sell high.

Isaac Bruce (4 catches for 153 yards) showed that rumours of his death were greatly exageratted. He could continue to have occasional days like this in Mike Martz's offense.

JT O'Sullivan has been incredibly solid, averaging nearly 10 yards per attempt over the first two weeks.
