Mark Brunell was the subject of an inquiry by the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday, sources said, but no deal was completed after Washington's 31-14 loss to the Jaguars at Jacksonville Municipal Stadium. The Redskins could still deal him with roster cuts looming Saturday -- Atlanta expressed some interest weeks ago -- although the market for the 36-year-old is not deep.

If Lane Kiffin needed the preseason finale to decide who his starting quarterback will be, Daunte Culpepper should be his man. The Raiders first-year coach watched the recently deposed Dolphins starter complete 11 of 19 passes for 108 yards and lead the offense to its only touchdown in Oakland's 19-14 loss to the Seahawks on Thursday night.

According to a report in the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, the Seahawks signed Seneca Wallace to a four-year contract extension on Tuesday. The deal is reportedly worth about $5.4 million, reworking the remaining year of Wallace's old contract that paid him a base salary of $800,000. The new deal keeps the 26-year-old with the club through the 2010 season.

Shaun Alexander barely broke a sweat. LaDainian Tomlinson didn't even suit up. Alexander's Seahawks beat Tomlinson's Chargers 24-16 on Sunday night, getting the go-ahead points on a 36-yard field goal from Josh Brown with 7:18 left. Brown had missed a 41-yard attempt, but got a second chance when the Chargers were penalized for having 12 men on the field. Third-stringer Marquis Weeks added a 6-yard scoring run with 1:55 left.

Former Vikings coach Mike Tice of the Jacksonville Jaguars spent nearly his entire five-week summer break in Seattle, where he owns a large home on the water. Don't think the Seattle Seahawks aren't his dream coaching job.
