Seattle Seahawks Center Retires
Robbie Tobeck will no longer be snapping the ball to Matt Hasselbeck. After seven seasons in Seattle and 13 in the NFL, the former Washington State Cougar is hanging up his cleats at the age of 36.
Tobeck debated retirement after last season but decided to come back for one more. He was sidelined the later part of the season with an infection, helping him make the decision to retire.

Seahawks Blow Close Game
The Seattle Seahawks fail to advance to the next round even though the Chicago Bears gave the Hawks several chances to win the game Sunday.
A game with this much riding on it never should have reached overtime if not for key mistakes made in the fourth quarter by Seattle.
Late in the fourth quarter, on a pivotal fourth and one in Chicago territory, Seattle opted to go for it but failed to convert when Matt Hasselbeck mishandled the snap. This failure to muscle out even one yard to keep a possible game wining drive alive is the Seattle Seahawks season in a nutshell.
Nevertheless, with only minutes remaining, Seattle once again was given an opportunity to work their way down the field to give Josh Brown a chance at a game wining field goal. However, the drive was shut down after some questionable play calling, only a mere thirteen yards out of Brown’s range.
The outcome was undoubtedly sealed with the game headed to overtime. Even with the Hawks wining the coin toss in overtime, they were unable to muster a drive that would have sent them to the NFC championship game for a second year.
Seattle fails to live up to expectations losing 27-24.
