</TD></TR><TR><TD vAlign=top colSpan=3>According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Matt Hasselbeck does have a fractured rib and his status for Week 3 is up in the air.
The play Hasselbeck got hurt on looked remarkably similar to the play that Donovan McNabb cracked his rib on in Week 1. Hasselbeck tweeted Sunday night that he is going to be "alright" after getting examined at the hospital, but the MRI results are not in yet. Even though Peter King tweeted that Hasselbeck should be OK for Week 3, consider the quarterback questionable.

</TD></TR><TR><TD vAlign=top colSpan=3>Seahawks coach Jim Mora is planning to face the Bears this week without QB Matt Hasselbeck (fractured rib).
Asked if he was getting Seneca Wallace ready to start, Mora responded, "Right now, we'll probably do that -- unless we get word otherwise." Hasselbeck says he's "absolutely hoping to play," but early indications are that he's doubtful for Sunday's game against the Bears.
