Seahawks’ one-two punch

Seattle wide receivers T.J. Houshmandzadeh and Nate Burleson combine to catch 11 passes for 175 yards and four touchdowns

There was no frustration this time around for T.J. Houshmandzadeh.

No postgame press conference remarks about how he should be getting the ball more. About how he is frustrated that he isn’t contributing more, especially as his team loses games.

Nope. On this Sunday Houshmandzadeh was all smiles following the Seahawks’ 41-0 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Houshmandzadeh, the Seahawks’ marquee offseason signing, caught five passes for 77 yards and his first two touchdowns as a Seahawk. Combined with the six-catch, 98-yard day turned in by Nate Burleson, it was just the kind of receiver production the Seahawks were hoping for when they signed Houshmandzadeh away from Cincinnati.

“Obviously winning solves a lot of problems, cures a lot of emotions you might have that aren’t right,” Houshmandzadeh said.

Houshmandzadeh scored his first touchdown in the second quarter to give the Seahawks a 13-0 lead in what had up to that point been a tight defensive struggle. A player who has frequently said he can always get open in one-on-one coverage, Houshmandzadeh did just that with the help of a convincing pump fake from Matt Hasselbeck, and scored on a 34-yard pass.
