The Facts:
HC Mike Holmgren prefers to play his starters through the end of the season to carry continuity and sharpness into the postseason. But he admits to being conflicted. "We haven't made any decisions yet about how we're going to play the game," Holmgren said Monday. "My inclination right now is that we're going to keep playing and hopefully keep our momentum up a little bit."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The Seahawks have clinched the No. 3 seed in the NFC. That means nothing they do in Atlanta will change their first-round home date against the NFC's final wild-card entrant Jan. 5 or 6, with a potential second-round game at second-seeded Green Bay. ... So, will Matt Hasselbeck get a chance to break his Seattle record for yards passing? Only if he gets it done fast (Hasselbeck is 22 away from the 3,841 he had in 2003). Anybody looking for Seahawk stars to make more than a cameo are likely to be disappointed.
