Since taking over as head coach of the Seattle Seahawks in January, Pete Carroll has worked to put his imprint on this organization, from the fast-paced way the team practices to the tightly packed schedule the players adhere to when they are on the road.
And from the looks of things, the players have bought what Carroll is selling as the Seahawks try to bounce back from a disappointing 5-11 campaign a year ago.
The way Carroll has grabbed his players' attention is letting them know that no one is irreplaceable and everyone is competing for a job, even veteran quarterback Matt Hasselbeck.
Carroll made that clear by trading for San Diego restricted free agent Charlie Whitehurst.
"The most critical position in this game is quarterback, and we're trying to...

Leinart, Houshmandzadeh released as NFL teams trim to 53 (SportingNews.com) - Matt Leinart might get a second chance, but for the Arizona Cardinals he was a first-round bust. The team released Leinart on Saturday, marking another career setback for the 10th pick of the 2006 draft and the 2004 Heisman Trophy winner.
