Before anyone says "who cares", Hasselbeck has been a solid QB for a long time, and is vastly under-rated.

Peter King summed it up like this....

"Hasselbeck threw for more yards than Aikman, same TD total as Bradshaw, better QB rating than Ken Anderson"

Dude is a class act, wish him the best

Good player. I like the guy. Can't stand his wife, though.

Together with Holmgrem he was a Royal pain in the niners backside for years.

Lol... King, cherry picking stats from past eras to make Hasselbeck seem better... Totally unnecessary, Hasselbeck had a long & productive career in the NFL, longtime starter & excellent backup in latter days. Outstanding job stepping in for Luck this past season & unlucky not to get a ring in SBXL.

Dude had the type of career a lot of players would be envious about, earned ever cent he made.

Best of luck to him post FB... Gonna replace Ditka on ESPN, I see.
