"Seattle didn't score Sunday for the first time in 64 games, has converted only 25 percent of its third downs this season and didn't run a play in Steelers' territory until the fourth quarter in yesterday's 24-0 loss.

According to Seahawks coach Pete Carroll, the team's offensive shortcomings haven't been quarterback Tarvaris Jackson's fault.

While former Seahawks quarterback Matt Hasselbeck was throwing for 358 yards in Tennessee's convincing win over Baltimore yesterday, his replacement in Seattle continued to struggle.

Tarvaris Jackson threw for only 159 yards and wasn't able to lead the Seahawks' offense on any drive longer than nine plays — and that came midway through the fourth quarter of an already-decided game.

"It had nothing to do with the quarterback spot," Carroll said. "I don't feel like that at all. This does not feel like this is a one-guy situation.

"We have to figure out a better way to move the football. We can't live with this. We have to do something about it."

That something won't be a quarterback change.

Carroll said he has no urge to use backup Charlie Whitehurst for next week's NFC West game against Arizona despite the offensive struggles."
