We've only completed week 2 of the NFL season and the Seahawks are reeling. After Sunday's 33-30 loss to the 49er's, led by the great and seemingly immortal J.T. O'Sullivan, Seattle has now seemingly lost every player expected to contribute at wide receiver this season. To recap the list of hurt Seahawks:
The hurt
Deion Branch (knee): recovering from offseason knee surgery. Expected to return within a month.
Bobby Engram (shoulder): not really a definite timetable out for his return.
Nate Burleson (knee): expected to be the teams No.1 receiver, he was lost for the season with a knee injury early in Seattle's opening loss in Buffalo.
Ben Obomanu (collarbone): went down in the preseason, out for the year.
Logan Payne (knee): injured in the first quarter of Sunday's game, out for the year.
Seneca Wallace (calf): out for 3-4 weeks with a strained calf. It's sad when your backup QB is expected to be your top receiver now.
Who's left?
Courtney Taylor: Had 2 catches for 20 yards in Sunday's loss.
Billy McMullen: 3 catches for 48 yards against the 49ers. When McMullen is the answer, you don't want to know the question.
Michael Bumpus: Signed about five minutes before the game. Had 2 catches for 9 yards. Had some good punt returns.
The possibilities
Among free agent possibilities, here are some players Seattle can consider.
Koren Robinson
The good: Despite being a all-time fuck-up in a traditional sense, he still has the ability that made him a first-round pick with the Seahawks.
The bad: Holmgren will probably be reluctant to let Robinson back on his team, after Robinson pretty much took a dump on the team.
The ugly: If all else fails, he could probably show Lofa Tatupu how to really party and drive drunk.
Joe Horn
The good: If Isaac Bruce's old ass can beat the Seahawks at 35-years-old, then Joe Horn's 36-year-old ass certainly can.
The bad: He's Joe Horn.
The ugly: Joe Horn makes Koren Robinson look like a role model. Has the drama of TO without the talent.
Samie Parker
The good: After being on the team for about six hours this week, he should have a grasp on the playbook.
The bad: He sucks
The ugly: He coughs up the ball like it's his job.
Mike Hass
The good: The guy tore it up at Oregon State during college.
The bad: His career stats read as follows: 2 seasons, 1 game, 0 receptions.
The ugly: He's white.
Devale Ellis
The good: Um, he has 4 career receptions?
The bad: Who the fuck is Devale Ellis?
The ugly: Seriously, who the fuck is Devale Ellis?
Yep...we're fucked.

You seem to be forgetting a few. Remember the names tim brown chris carter and desmond howard. Why don't we sign them can't do much worse? Also our fucking defense hasn't been doing much either. And what was this story about you getting an std from a Chinese prostitute during noon mass?
