Some are reading too much into this. As already stated, pretty much every team with a clear cut starting QB situation has their guy play about 2 series in the 1st pre-season game.

This has been the same amount Matt has played for years. And on the flip side, of course he's going. He has to play. Nothing can simulate a game and all the things they've been working on, with all their new components, like actually playing. It's the same thing every season.

If it is two possessions the least Matt will be on the field would be for 6 plays. If half of those are runs you only have 3 passing plays. Of course I would like to see two touchdowns from the two possessions . . . but safety first . . . Merriman will not get that many chances to hit Hasselbeck.

I wouldn't even take him to SD. I am NOT against Merriman ; ( I'd love to have players like that on our team), and I am definitely not a coward, but it is to much risk to play Matt with very little real return for it. If Matt gets hit hard by that guy our whole season can be ruined. READ: GOOD BYE SUPER BOWL CHANCES. I second that jkoecke. I wouldn’t even take him to SD.

When Holmy was around it always went like this: 1st preseason game starting quarter back plays 1 or 2 series 2nd preseason game maybe 1 quarter (if hass comes out executes well and moves the ball then again 1 or 2 series) 3rd preseason game hass usually played the 1st half 4th preseason again only 1 or 2 series, usually coaches want to use the last game to evaluate players on the bubble. 1 or 2 series in the first preseason game is absoultly normal for a starting quarterback.

He's got anger issues. Yeah, I’d protect Matt as much as possible with roided out Merriman coming back for his first action in a year. He’s got anger issues.

That seems to be the standard for the 1st pre-season game. It's the 3rd pre-season game where you expect your starters to play the entire 1st half and then start the 2nd half to get used to the half time rest. Nothing new with what Mora is doing with Matthew. I think people are too busy trying to read into every little thing. Given last season that is to be expected from the fans. But if Matthew was hurting it would have shown up in practice.
