Seattle makes change in defensive backfield

SEAHAWKS

It doesn’t have the same cachet as Bledsoe and Romo, but the Hawks have their changing of the guard (actually safety).

Michael Boulware (on the ground at right; Associated Press photo) is out of the starting lineup at strong safety, replaced by Jordan Babineaux. And there might be a change at (left) guard. Chris Spencer has been starting since Pork Chop Womack’s injury, but Spencer might be replaced by Rob Sims.

The change – or changes – were covered by every Seattle-area newspaper, including the P-I , Everett and Tacoma .

There were also a couple of Damon Huard (now starting at quarterback for the Chiefs) in the Times and Herald .

Dave Boling hits a point I really agree with: out of misery comes opportunity. If the Hawks can win a few games with Shaun Alexander and Matt Hasselbeck out, the rest of the NFC West will really be worried when the duo returns.
