Seahawks QB Hasselbeck could miss game vs. Packers

Kirkland, WA (Sports Network) - A sore right knee could keep Seattle Seahawks quarterback Matt Hasselbeck out of Sunday's home game against the Green Bay Packers.
Seahawks head coach Mike Holmgren said Hasselbeck will be a game-time decision, but said it appears Charlie Frye will play. Holmgren also said Seneca Wallace will be available as well. Hasselbeck is officially listed as questionable on the injury report.
"The thing (knee) has just not responded," said Holmgren. "He still can't do much with his leg. It's not ligaments, it's not anything like that, it's just sore. He doesn't have the green light yet to play."
Frye took the snaps at practice this week, while Hasselbeck has been unable to take part in sessions. A calf injury has limited Wallace in practice.
Hasselbeck has completed 58-of-118 passes for 656 yards with a pair of touchdowns and four interceptions this season for the Seahawks (1-3). Frye played in just one game in 2007, the season-opener for Cleveland, before he was traded to Seattle.
"I think all three guys, all three of our quarterbacks, are capable of running the same game plan," said Holmgren. "If Seneca was in the game, we might have a little bit more movement stuff because he's so good at that, but basically it's the same. There's not a lot of changes. The volume and maybe some of the subtleties that you would use with Matt, you might not use with the other two guys. But basically the game plan is pretty much the same."
