alternate is the most visually immediate \navailable departure from the franchise's primary navy and grey identity — \nthe action green colorway that reads as distinctly contemporary \nagainst every other Seahawks signed piece in a display. \nFor Matt Hasselbeck specifically, the Flash colorway \ncreates a particular collector argument: \nthe quarterback from the Seahawks' pre-dynasty era, \nwho built the franchise's first championship-caliber teams \nbefore the Legion of Boom's navy and grey \nbecame synonymous with NFC dominance, \nsigned in the franchise's most modern available alternate. \n\u003cstrong\u003eThe Flash mini carries the autograph of the quarterback \nwho made six Seattle playoff appearances, \nled the franchise to its only Super Bowl appearance before 2014, \nand was inducted into the Ring of Honor before \nthe dynasty his foundation helped enable \nhad produced a single championship — \nin the colorway the franchise wears now, \ndecades after Hasselbeck first established \nwhat a Seahawks quarterback could accomplish.\u003c\/strong\u003e \nFor the collector building a Seahawks QB signed piece collection, \nthe Hasselbeck Flash mini is the pre-dynasty chapter — \nthe foundation-builder's signature in the franchise's \nmost visually striking current alternate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003e13-3 — The Franchise's First Super Bowl\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2005 Seattle Seahawks finished 13-3 — \nthe best regular-season record in franchise history — \nand advanced through the NFC playoffs to Super Bowl XL \nagainst the Pittsburgh Steelers in Detroit. \nHasselbeck had earned the highest passer rating in the NFC \nthat season, leading an offense anchored by \nrushing champion Shaun Alexander, \nand the Seahawks arrived at the championship game \nas the NFC's top seed for the first time in franchise history. \n\u003cstrong\u003eThe Seahawks lost 21-10 in a game widely criticized \nfor its officiating — referee Bill Leavy later apologized \nto Hasselbeck at a Seahawks offseason practice in 2010, \nsaying he would \"go to his grave\" for calls \nthat affected the game's outcome — \nbut nothing can undo the credential: \nHasselbeck was the starting quarterback \nfor the Seattle Seahawks' first Super Bowl \nin the franchise's 29-year history.\u003c\/strong\u003e \nHe was the first Seahawks quarterback to start the NFC's \nall-star game, earning Pro Bowl honors that season \nalongside the franchise's first-team All-Pro selection. \nThe Flash mini signed by Hasselbeck is the piece \nof the quarterback from that 2005 season — \nthe franchise record, the NFC's top seed, \nthe Super Bowl start — in the alternate colorway \nthe franchise has introduced decades later \nas its most visually striking available format.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Saints Upset — The Last Moment in Seattle\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn January 8, 2011, the Seattle Seahawks hosted \nthe New Orleans Saints — the defending Super Bowl champions, \nan 11-point favorite, an offense led by Drew Brees — \nin a Wild Card game the Seahawks entered with a 7-9 record. \nIt was the first time in NFL history that a team \nwith a losing regular-season record had hosted a playoff game. \nHasselbeck had battled injuries throughout the 2010 season \nand led a Seahawks team that had lost seven of its last ten. \n\u003cstrong\u003eHe threw for 272 yards and four touchdowns — \na franchise postseason record — with a 113.03 passer rating \nas Seattle won 41-36 in one of the most memorable \nWild Card upsets in NFL history, \nthe same game that produced Marshawn Lynch's \n\"Beast Quake\" run.\u003c\/strong\u003e \nWhat Hasselbeck did not know that afternoon \nwas that it was his final home game as a Seahawk. \nAfter the game, unaware that the organization \nwould not re-sign him, he walked off the field \nwith his son Henry on his shoulders \nand his daughters beside him — \none of his family carrying the game ball \nfrom the final knee Hasselbeck took that day. \n\"For whatever reason, I was one of the last guys \ncoming off the field with my kids there, \nand it's a picture that I'm proud of,\" \nhe said years later. \nThe Flash mini signed by Hasselbeck \nis the piece of the quarterback from that afternoon — \nthe franchise's most emotionally resonant single game, \nthe career's most complete available individual performance, \nin the most visually striking available alternate colorway.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBeckett
