Seahawks Team Report
(Thu, 19 Nov 2009 19:06:53 PST)
If only Seattle Seahawks receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh could have peered into a crystal ball to take a look at his future.
Had he had the opportunity to look forward, the talented, 32-year-old receiver might have chosen differently when he became a free agent during the offseason.
Houshmandzadeh had three main suitors courting him, Seattle, Minnesota and his former team, the Cincinnati Bengals.
Minnesota is 8-1 and leading the NFC North. The Bengals are 7-2 and atop the AFC North.
And the team Houshmandzadeh signed a five-year, $40 million deal with is 3-6, and on the outside looking in regarding the playoffs for a second straight season.
Any regrets?
"As of right now, it doesn't look like it was the best decision," Houshmandzadeh said.
