00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:06,080
Speaker 6: You know what, You're a better man than me. I

25
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:06,920
Speaker 6: gotta be honest with you.

26
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:09,120
Speaker 4: If somebody asked me, if I wasn't doing this show

27
00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:11,200
Speaker 4: and somebody said, hey, would you do an hour with

28
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:13,600
Speaker 4: us on a Friday night, I'd say, you know what,

29
00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:15,080
Speaker 4: why do you take a suck out of my you

30
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:15,360
Speaker 4: know what?

31
00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:18,160
Speaker 5: Okay, Wow, that's what I would say. That's what I

32
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 5: would say. All right.

33
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:21,120
Speaker 4: And I've heard that line from Hugh Millan, by the way,

34
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:23,120
Speaker 4: how many times here in the last twenty five years,

35
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:24,680
Speaker 4: over and over again.

36
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:25,679
Speaker 3: So I'm shocked.

37
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:28,160
Speaker 6: I'm shocked. I didn't hear that from you this time.

38
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 7: But you're talking to slemon right taking a suck out.

39
00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 4: No, I'm talking about taking a suck out of my ass, dick,

40
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:36,400
Speaker 4: That's what I'm talking about. Okay, come on, man, Yeah,

41
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 4: I just get right to it. Why not, you know what,

42
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 4: I'm not messing around.

43
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 6: I'm on edge.

44
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:42,399
Speaker 5: I'm not playing around right now.

45
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 4: We are twenty four hours away, Hugh from Seahawks Niners tomorrow.

46
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:47,400
Speaker 5: Don't test me.

47
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:50,760
Speaker 4: We got Niner fans in here talking smack already at

48
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 4: the beer hall.

49
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 6: I may just stay here tonight, Hugh.

50
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 4: The stadium's fifty feet behind us, and they may I

51
00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 4: may not go home.

52
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 3: Do it? Well, he's saying, yes, please.

53
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, let's get let's get your your thoughts, the view

54
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 4: from fifty thousand feet. Where's your head at right now,

55
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 4: whether it's Sam Donald or the matchup itself?

56
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 6: Whatever? What are you thinking about tonight here?

57
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:15,800
Speaker 8: Well, I'm we're going to break it down in detail.

58
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,520
Speaker 8: I think the matchup obviously favors Seattle. There's a lot

59
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 8: to go over here. But I think that the concern

60
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 8: about Sam Donald is is not necessarily the condition now,

61
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 8: because I think all parties believe, including Donald, that he's

62
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,280
Speaker 8: going to be fine. You got adrenaline, you got uh

63
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:36,720
Speaker 8: an injection, and and I'm not concerned about where he's

64
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 8: at now. I'm concerning concerned about those fibers that could

65
00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 8: be strained and exacerbated. And so you know, at some

66
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 8: point in the game if he now has a setback,

67
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:51,639
Speaker 8: what does that mean?

68
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:52,400
Speaker 3: It's you know.

69
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 8: Here, you you log all this work to get to

70
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,600
Speaker 8: the number one seed, and then even though we say

71
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:04,359
Speaker 8: it's probably gonna be fine, I don't like probably. I like, certainly,

72
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 8: and nobody can say certainly that he's gonna be fine.

73
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,079
Speaker 9: We had Bonta hill On and you know he's full

74
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 9: of bravado, not as much as he usually is in

75
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 9: these matchups, but he did make this comment. He said

76
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:19,480
Speaker 9: Purdy is without a doubt better than Sam Donald, and

77
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:21,680
Speaker 9: Shanahan is better than Mike McDonald.

78
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 7: How would you respond to those two comments, Well.

79
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,120
Speaker 8: That's what you'd say if you're in San Francisco. I mean,

80
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 8: there's numbers that you could point to to say objectively,

81
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 8: you know, the forty nine ers since twenty nineteen are

82
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 8: the winning this team in the NFC, so I can

83
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:43,160
Speaker 8: understand objectively, you can't really say that Mike McDonald has

84
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:47,200
Speaker 8: knocked Kyle Shanahan off of many pergs. Brock Purdy has

85
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 8: won five playoff games, four of them were game winning drives.

86
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 8: He's been at it longer. But you know, for this year,

87
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:59,400
Speaker 8: you've got Sam Donald. He is number one in the

88
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 8: NFL in yards per dropback that would include sacks and

89
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 8: scrambles that there's a six to seventy three correlation to

90
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:14,280
Speaker 8: winning on that statistic. Again, Donald number one, and that's

91
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,520
Speaker 8: over three hundred different quarterback stats that the NFL has

92
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 8: in their stat portal. So I think you've got that piece,

93
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,719
Speaker 8: And then you've got the piece that Sam Donald since

94
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:29,479
Speaker 8: specifically November twenty seventh, twoenty and twenty two, that's the

95
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 8: first time after he had had to sit due an injury.

96
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 8: He was at Carolina. He had at a high ankle

97
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 8: sprain and then he sat. Now he starts near the

98
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:42,159
Speaker 8: end of the year. Since that point, he's thirty one

99
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:45,640
Speaker 8: and nine by far and away the winning his quarterback

100
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 8: in the NFL, the quarterback with the most number of

101
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 8: triple digit passer rating games. So he's been a new dude.

102
00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:59,279
Speaker 8: So look, it's just what do you want to point

103
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:03,279
Speaker 8: your finger out. If you gonna make an argument for Purdy, yeah,

104
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:05,480
Speaker 8: you've got evidence to support that. If you want to

105
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:08,880
Speaker 8: make an argument for Donald, yes you have evidence to

106
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 8: support that, albeit on a more limited time frame.

107
00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:14,479
Speaker 6: Well let me let me just put it this way then, Okay.

108
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,680
Speaker 4: So we asked Mark and Chuck and he In and

109
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:18,839
Speaker 4: Dick earlier today to kind of, you know, play the

110
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:21,240
Speaker 4: one side of the debate team. You always liked this game.

111
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 4: If we're having a high school debate, you know, here

112
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:28,040
Speaker 4: and and your Your responsibility, Hugh, is to present facts

113
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:32,239
Speaker 4: on why San Francisco will win this game and where

114
00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 4: their advantages are. What would your debate bullet points look

115
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:40,240
Speaker 4: like for tomorrow, Well.

116
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:43,880
Speaker 8: I would think that it may center around a limited

117
00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:46,679
Speaker 8: Sam Donald. I think that you would look and say

118
00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:51,560
Speaker 8: that the forty nine ers with Eric Kendricks and middle linebacker,

119
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:55,240
Speaker 8: he had a good debut last week, and that he's

120
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 8: been more solid than anybody that they've had in replace

121
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 8: of Fred wall corner, that maybe somehow Seattle's offensive line

122
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:08,200
Speaker 8: is gonna have a regress. I mean here, the offensive line,

123
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:12,760
Speaker 8: the running game for Seattle. Yes, in the last three games,

124
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:16,360
Speaker 8: they've averaged one hundred and sixty five yards game, and

125
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:22,680
Speaker 8: they've taken their average from twenty third in yards per rush.

126
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 8: They've they've popped it all the way up to third

127
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:28,800
Speaker 8: in the last three weeks. But if I was arguing,

128
00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:33,920
Speaker 8: I'd say that's just a three week mirage and San

129
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:37,839
Speaker 8: Francisco is gonna be better stop in the run. They're

130
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 8: gonna somehow manufacture some pass rush and Donald, maybe a

131
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:47,599
Speaker 8: hobbled Donald, is not gonna be able to.

132
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:47,440
Speaker 3: Convert the points.

133
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:49,240
Speaker 8: You know, the forty nine ers there's a lot of

134
00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:52,560
Speaker 8: average numbers on their defense when you start looking. The

135
00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:55,719
Speaker 8: one thing that they are are pretty darn good at

136
00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 8: is red zone and then the goal to go down

137
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,359
Speaker 8: in side the five down inside the ten yard line.

138
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,760
Speaker 8: They're fourth in the NFL defensively, So if they were

139
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:08,680
Speaker 8: able to keep Seattle from the big plays, and Seattle's

140
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 8: offense has dried up in terms of big plays over

141
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:15,360
Speaker 8: the last six weeks, the forty nine ers they play

142
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:18,960
Speaker 8: that good goal one defense, and that might be the

143
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 8: basis for the idea that the forty nine ers are

144
00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 8: going to get Seattle.

145
00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:25,560
Speaker 7: Hugh had of the Niners score in this game. They

146
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:27,360
Speaker 7: have twenty points in two games against Seattle.

147
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,720
Speaker 8: It's a great question. I mean, you look at I

148
00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 8: mean Christian McCaffrey. Here's a guy that came to the

149
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 8: forty nine ers in twenty twenty two. In both twenty

150
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 8: twenty two and twenty three, he was four point seven

151
00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:44,200
Speaker 8: yards per tempt last year. He dropped a four point

152
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 8: four this year. Now, this is not just handing the

153
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:51,200
Speaker 8: ball to Christan McCaffrey. This is all the running game.

154
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 8: Now they're down to three point seven and McCaffrey's below

155
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 8: that against Seattle, he had two point nine yards per attempt.

156
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 8: Whether he's lost step or what have it. Have you,

157
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:05,640
Speaker 8: I think that Seattle's team speed has been able to

158
00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:09,000
Speaker 8: shut down the wide zone. McCaffrey is second in the

159
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 8: league only to Bijon Robinson, who's kind of the undisputed

160
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 8: leader of outside zone. And so McCaffrey that's been his

161
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:20,800
Speaker 8: bread and butter. He's the number two guy to Robinson,

162
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,640
Speaker 8: as I said, and Seattle just has too much team speed.

163
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:27,160
Speaker 8: They they flow to the ball. And now if m

164
00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:29,680
Speaker 8: indeed McCaffrey has lost to half a step, he's gonna

165
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:32,160
Speaker 8: be thirty in June. We've seen this through the years

166
00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:34,600
Speaker 8: in the decades. Running backs, they all they do slip

167
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:39,040
Speaker 8: a little, and maybe he's slipping. But I think Seattle

168
00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:44,479
Speaker 8: they feel that they have an ability from a personnel standpoint.

169
00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:48,880
Speaker 8: They never played bass, they played nickel, and they played

170
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 8: a soft box and they were able to stop the run.

171
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 4: Hey here, let me go back to Darnold for a second.

172
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:56,160
Speaker 4: I know you love getting to the game early, the

173
00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:58,840
Speaker 4: park early and watching pregame warm ups and keeping an

174
00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:01,280
Speaker 4: eye on stuff. And every now and then there's a

175
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:03,800
Speaker 4: new story or something that'll come up where we'll all

176
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,199
Speaker 4: be focused on, Hey, who's the starting center gonna be,

177
00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:08,400
Speaker 4: who's gonna take the first team reps at quarterback?

178
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:09,320
Speaker 6: Blah blah blah.

179
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:12,400
Speaker 4: How much if I get into the stadium early tomorrow,

180
00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 4: which I'm planning on doing, how much should I be

181
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:18,920
Speaker 4: watching Darnold as a fan and seeing how far he's

182
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 4: popping that ball downfield in pregame warmups to test that?

183
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:23,320
Speaker 5: O'blaque?

184
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 6: Is that something that I should be looking at as

185
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:26,160
Speaker 6: a fan tomorrow.

186
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 8: Well, if you're watching pregame warmups and he doesn't throw deep,

187
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:31,880
Speaker 8: that's a little bit of a concern. I would think

188
00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 8: that if he's going to be good to go for

189
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:36,840
Speaker 8: the game, that he's gonna throw some you know, some

190
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:40,240
Speaker 8: easy ups up the sideline at the very least, just

191
00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:43,040
Speaker 8: to kind of test it. I think an hour before

192
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 8: the game or so, a little over an hour you're

193
00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:49,120
Speaker 8: gonna get the the actives and inactives. Jaylen Milroe, you know,

194
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 8: if he's active, that might be a little bit of

195
00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:53,679
Speaker 8: indicator how how concerned they are.

196
00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:55,760
Speaker 4: But he'll be the third string quarterback no matter what

197
00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 4: the emergency QB Right Milroe.

198
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 8: Yes, it will he be active, right, you know, because

199
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 8: because if he's not active, then he.

200
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 6: Can play unless they get hurt yet yet right, yeah, and.

201
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:10,960
Speaker 8: Then nobody can go back into the game. So you know,

202
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:17,720
Speaker 8: there's you you, which is absolutely absurd rule. It's nonsensical

203
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:22,160
Speaker 8: because the idea is that you want to I mean,

204
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 8: think about this, The idea is you want to help

205
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:28,720
Speaker 8: from an injury standpoint, prevent any further injury. So now

206
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:32,120
Speaker 8: with this stupid rule, if Drew Locke were to play,

207
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:33,760
Speaker 8: this is all God forbid. I don't even want to

208
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:34,600
Speaker 8: throw this in the universe.

209
00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:37,439
Speaker 4: But if we've already talked about it, Hugh, by the way,

210
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 4: so you're off the hook, trust me.

211
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:40,840
Speaker 5: Yeah. And then and then.

212
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 8: Let's say Drew Locke, you know, he gets he gets

213
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:46,000
Speaker 8: bangor you know, he takes a shock to the face whatever,

214
00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:50,160
Speaker 8: and he thinks he's got mild symptoms. Well, he can't

215
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:53,000
Speaker 8: he can't go say hey, maybe I had to sit

216
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:57,560
Speaker 8: out a series. He's just got to keep playing because otherwise,

217
00:10:57,559 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 8: if they take him out, they'll never be able to

218
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:01,840
Speaker 8: put him back. So it's an absurd rule. But at

219
00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:05,920
Speaker 8: any rate, we'll see how the how they play that out.

220
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:09,240
Speaker 8: It's probably likely that he's just the emergency guy, but

221
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:12,120
Speaker 8: if they activate him, that would be an indicator that

222
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:13,440
Speaker 8: they have more concern.

223
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,920
Speaker 9: Hugh, Should the Hawks be as conservative on offense as

224
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:18,760
Speaker 9: they were two weeks ago? And do you think they

225
00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:21,960
Speaker 9: will be as conservatives as they were two weeks ago?

226
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 8: Well, I think that they should open it up. I mean,

227
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:31,000
Speaker 8: first of all, Sam Darnold for this year on passes

228
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:35,600
Speaker 8: with the ball thirty plus air yards, Donald has a

229
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:40,960
Speaker 8: fifty eight percent completion percentage. The second place guy is

230
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,800
Speaker 8: forty two percent and the average is twenty five percent.

231
00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 8: Russell Wilson for his career is thirty six percent. So

232
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:51,240
Speaker 8: this is a guy that has and by the way,

233
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,760
Speaker 8: he was last year with the Vikings at forty three

234
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,120
Speaker 8: percent that was the fifth best.

235
00:11:57,480 --> 00:11:58,600
Speaker 3: Is passer rating at.

236
00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:01,440
Speaker 8: One hundred and eleven on on balls over thirty yards

237
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:03,680
Speaker 8: was fourth best. I mean, this is a guy that

238
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:06,160
Speaker 8: can air the ball down the field, down in the

239
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:07,959
Speaker 8: red zone and the red zone fringe where I think

240
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:13,960
Speaker 8: Seattle's biggest problem has been Seattle's not taking enough shots.

241
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:18,240
Speaker 8: In my opinion, there's a philosophy of hey, when you

242
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 8: get down about the twenty five yard line, you know,

243
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,320
Speaker 8: throw a couple vertical routes, throw a double post, what

244
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:26,000
Speaker 8: have you, and you tell the quarterback touchdown or check

245
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:27,560
Speaker 8: down if you don't love it. If it's not a

246
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:32,920
Speaker 8: green light, just check it down. But while Purdy has

247
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:36,360
Speaker 8: a rating this is in the red zone fringe twenty

248
00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:39,640
Speaker 8: to forty, going in air yards of fifteen yards and more,

249
00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 8: that's him kind of stretched the field intermediate. His pass

250
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:45,720
Speaker 8: rating is one hundred and forty four point seven. That's

251
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:49,600
Speaker 8: number one in the NFL. But he only has eighteen attempts.

252
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:53,760
Speaker 8: Compare that to the Rams thirty nine attempts, more than double.

253
00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,360
Speaker 8: So I just think there's some ways to score some

254
00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:58,280
Speaker 8: more points. I think that they've been a little bit

255
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:02,120
Speaker 8: too conservative down inside the red zone. In the area

256
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:06,200
Speaker 8: the friends just outside the red zone, I think that

257
00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:09,600
Speaker 8: they've got the defense to combat if there were to

258
00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:12,320
Speaker 8: be a turnover, And I think put it this way,

259
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:16,760
Speaker 8: I think you can do the same game plan that

260
00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 8: you had in Week eighteen and probably win the game.

261
00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 8: But I'm not They're the number one seat, They've got

262
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,839
Speaker 8: the shortest odds to win the Super Bowl of anybody.

263
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:30,920
Speaker 8: So I would take a slight risk against the forty

264
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:34,760
Speaker 8: nine ers, a ever so slight risk to try and

265
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:38,559
Speaker 8: open it up so that I'm thinking about next week

266
00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:42,160
Speaker 8: and in the super Bowl, because you can't just look

267
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:45,920
Speaker 8: at the passing game and it's like I bought a

268
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:49,520
Speaker 8: pressure washer at Costco. I don't use it very often,

269
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:52,560
Speaker 8: but when there's a mess, I drag it out. The

270
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:54,920
Speaker 8: handle comes off, so you could I got it stored

271
00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:57,120
Speaker 8: in some box in the garage, like I.

272
00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:58,000
Speaker 3: Barely use it.

273
00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 8: You can't treat a pass game aim like your pressure

274
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:05,559
Speaker 8: washer and only drag it out on on rare occasions

275
00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:08,720
Speaker 8: to clean up message. You've got to get Sam Darnold

276
00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:12,000
Speaker 8: in a and back, in my opinion, to a rhythm

277
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,320
Speaker 8: of of let's get some of those big plays that

278
00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 8: we had going. I mean, Seattle's number one in the

279
00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 8: NFL for the season in fifty yard completions. Are more

280
00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:25,440
Speaker 8: fifty yards or more seven of those? The forty nine

281
00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:28,440
Speaker 8: ers only have one. There's all these numbers I could

282
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:32,000
Speaker 8: throw to you. I told them what dB Yeah? So

283
00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:34,040
Speaker 8: to me, I was like, hey, let's let's kind of

284
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:35,920
Speaker 8: crank this thing open because we want to win three

285
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:36,680
Speaker 8: more games.

286
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:39,960
Speaker 4: Well, first of all, I love my pressure washer, and

287
00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:42,480
Speaker 4: the bigger the head, the better the job. I mean,

288
00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:45,920
Speaker 4: you can blast that grime and dirt off and off

289
00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:49,040
Speaker 4: your driveway. Man, Yes, I did say that. I'm talking

290
00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:51,840
Speaker 4: in pressure washer terms here perpose, Okay, I.

291
00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:53,240
Speaker 7: Think compared to what he said at the beginning of

292
00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:54,200
Speaker 7: second I mean I.

293
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:56,479
Speaker 3: Heard that last night man, about.

294
00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:57,360
Speaker 6: There's not.

295
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:01,360
Speaker 5: Okay. No, I was told you.

296
00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:06,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, we had a conversation about cleaning the driveway.

297
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:09,680
Speaker 4: There's things more satisfying where you can start, like drawing

298
00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:12,280
Speaker 4: pictures in the dirt with your pressure washer. You got

299
00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:15,360
Speaker 4: a big box, you spray that out. It's satisfying as hell.

300
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 4: So don't you be distant pressure washers? Now you that's

301
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 4: number one? Number two if you went to the Seahawks though,

302
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:25,320
Speaker 4: and you said, look, you are because guys, let's be honest,

303
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:30,040
Speaker 4: Sam Donald and Mike McDonald are looking to do what

304
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:34,080
Speaker 4: Ben Johnson and Caleb Williams did last week, win their

305
00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:36,600
Speaker 4: first playoff game as a head coach and a quarterback.

306
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:38,560
Speaker 6: And those guys did that last week.

307
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:41,800
Speaker 4: So the fact that Shanahan's been here before, the fact

308
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:45,400
Speaker 4: that party has been here before, and the fact that Donald,

309
00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:49,520
Speaker 4: outside of one game and McDonald's never been here, how

310
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:53,520
Speaker 4: much does that really mean you think you tangibly tomorrow.

311
00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 8: You know, I think for some reason, Sam Donald has

312
00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:02,360
Speaker 8: become this beacon and I get the because of last year.

313
00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:06,720
Speaker 8: You know, the Vikings go fourteen and three, they play

314
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:10,640
Speaker 8: in a playoff game against the Rams. And to put

315
00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:14,200
Speaker 8: it into a perspective, you saw the Super Bowl last

316
00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 8: year where Mahomes was awful right.

317
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:17,720
Speaker 3: Going into the fourth quarter.

318
00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:21,120
Speaker 8: Mahomes had like a fifty point full four rating or

319
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:22,840
Speaker 8: something crazy under fifty five.

320
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 3: Like it was awful right.

321
00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:29,360
Speaker 8: Why because Mahomes didn't have any pass protection in that game.

322
00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:30,720
Speaker 3: This is the last Super Bowl.

323
00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:34,359
Speaker 8: This of the most recent super Bowl, he had seventeen

324
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:39,560
Speaker 8: pressures by the NFL's calculation. Sam Darnold last year in

325
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:45,200
Speaker 8: that playoff game against the Rams had twenty seven darres

326
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 8: saw their left tackle was out. The replacement he took

327
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:53,240
Speaker 8: on a all time playoff record twelve pressures plus a sack.

328
00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:56,200
Speaker 8: They couldn't protect for anybody the right guard. They had

329
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:59,240
Speaker 8: forty percent of their line out. That was a calamity

330
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:02,160
Speaker 8: on behalf of the Vikings offensive line of pressure.

331
00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:03,360
Speaker 3: So now they say, well.

332
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,199
Speaker 8: Donald can't, uh, he can't win the big Well, he's

333
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:08,040
Speaker 8: only played in one of them, and he.

334
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:10,800
Speaker 5: Had ridiculous it's ridiculous.

335
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:13,000
Speaker 3: So and so now going into that, you know.

336
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:16,480
Speaker 8: It's like before the the Ram game on that Thursday night.

337
00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:19,720
Speaker 8: I love all the guys who cover the Seattle Times.

338
00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:23,280
Speaker 8: I'm not trying to pick on anybody, but that Donald

339
00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:26,000
Speaker 8: and his teammates have to see on the on game day,

340
00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:28,680
Speaker 8: here's a big story about Darnald can't win the big Well,

341
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:30,000
Speaker 8: they beat the Rams.

342
00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:31,800
Speaker 3: Then okay, now when they play the.

343
00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:35,480
Speaker 8: Forty nine ers in week eighteen, same deal, game day,

344
00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:36,640
Speaker 8: there's a story.

345
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:37,840
Speaker 3: Guess what?

346
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:42,080
Speaker 8: Right now, there another story right there. And it's not

347
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:44,680
Speaker 8: just the national guys, it's the local guys. And again

348
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:46,320
Speaker 8: I'm not picking on them. They got to write what

349
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:51,840
Speaker 8: people are. But it's like every time, yeah, I get,

350
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:55,159
Speaker 8: but every time it's like, okay, what what does he got?

351
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:57,040
Speaker 3: I guess what he has to do is win a playoff?

352
00:17:57,040 --> 00:18:00,200
Speaker 8: But you know what, it seems like even if if

353
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:04,600
Speaker 8: he win tomorrow, they'll still write a story before the

354
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:07,520
Speaker 8: NFC Championship game. Will he hasn't run the really big one?

355
00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:09,840
Speaker 8: Like Don James said, the big one is always the

356
00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:10,920
Speaker 8: one you lost.

357
00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:15,080
Speaker 7: You won on Coward Show. It wasn't Coward, it was this.

358
00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:18,040
Speaker 9: It was his sidekick that was doing the show today

359
00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 9: and he said, he said, unless Sam.

360
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:23,720
Speaker 5: Darnold wins a super Bowl, he's.

361
00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:25,040
Speaker 7: Not getting this off of what if?

362
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:27,000
Speaker 6: What if he plays great and they went and they

363
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:27,520
Speaker 6: lose the game?

364
00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:28,600
Speaker 5: Doesn't like that?

365
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,679
Speaker 7: That's that, But that's what the national narrative is.

366
00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:34,879
Speaker 4: What's gonna happen if he wins the title? They're gonna say, well,

367
00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:39,640
Speaker 4: let's see what happens next year. Yes, of course, here

368
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:42,960
Speaker 4: you know this. If he plays poorly tomorrow, boy, he's

369
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:45,560
Speaker 4: gonna hear it. Man, he's gonna hear it, and you're

370
00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:47,600
Speaker 4: gonna hear it. And I'm gonna hear it. And everyone

371
00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:49,399
Speaker 4: who is back this guy is gonna hear it.

372
00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:49,879
Speaker 5: You know that.

373
00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:51,119
Speaker 3: I get it.

374
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:53,120
Speaker 8: I mean, I think that a big part of this

375
00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 8: was rooted in his comment about uh, seeing ghosts, right,

376
00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:02,359
Speaker 8: and and it's just a big pile of ignorance. In

377
00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:06,280
Speaker 8: my opinion, I love it that people how they reference

378
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:10,359
Speaker 8: because I listen to how people reference that. And here's

379
00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:14,240
Speaker 8: my take on that. The term chasing ghost is used

380
00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:17,800
Speaker 8: in a quarterback meeting room all the time because what

381
00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 8: it refers to you are seeing ghosts rather chasing ghosts

382
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:26,560
Speaker 8: is when you're in advance of a game and you say, well,

383
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:29,280
Speaker 8: what do we do if we're in that formation and

384
00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:31,960
Speaker 8: they're in that front, and then we have this particular

385
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:33,840
Speaker 8: play called how are we going to protect that? You

386
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:37,600
Speaker 8: could drive yourself crazy. We call that chasing ghosts. You say,

387
00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:40,879
Speaker 8: you know what, we can't account for every situation.

388
00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:41,920
Speaker 3: Make a play.

389
00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:45,240
Speaker 8: I've literally had Mike Shanahan and Gary Kubiak say, well,

390
00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:48,359
Speaker 8: if that happens, just try and make a play like

391
00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:51,680
Speaker 8: the best minds in the game. And so seeing ghosts

392
00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:54,439
Speaker 8: is that you're in the pocket and you're trying. You

393
00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:57,840
Speaker 8: are instructed, you do your job, and you have to

394
00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:00,440
Speaker 8: be looking down the field seeing ghost this is one

395
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:02,840
Speaker 8: of two things. You think that there's a guy in

396
00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:08,240
Speaker 8: his own coverage out there that's not there, and or

397
00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:11,560
Speaker 8: you're in the pocket and you're trying to keep your

398
00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:13,760
Speaker 8: eyes down the field and you feel like there's there's

399
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:17,560
Speaker 8: somebody around you. Like Jim Everett famously took a dive

400
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:19,840
Speaker 8: in the NFC Championship game. He thought there was a

401
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,560
Speaker 8: forty nine or defensive end and he goes to the ground.

402
00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:27,000
Speaker 8: Nobody's around him. It just he had to go to

403
00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:32,000
Speaker 8: psych psychiatry for years because of that. It just killed them, right,

404
00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:37,760
Speaker 8: But seeing ghosts is you are feeling like there's defenders

405
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:41,440
Speaker 8: there that are not and it's lexicon and terminology within

406
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:43,439
Speaker 8: the quarterback world. People don't even I don't know.

407
00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:45,679
Speaker 4: I think we have. I think we have Jackson, a

408
00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:47,760
Speaker 4: new drop and a new name for this radio show.

409
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:51,560
Speaker 4: Just a big pile of ignorance every day at three o'clock.

410
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:52,679
Speaker 5: So grabs that for me.

411
00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:54,679
Speaker 4: All right here wee let's come back and talk more

412
00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:58,199
Speaker 4: about the matchup tomorrow. If there's any tweaks that McDonald

413
00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:00,919
Speaker 4: or Kubiak need to make in this game tomorrow, what

414
00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:02,040
Speaker 4: would they potentially be?

415
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:05,120
Speaker 5: What does George Kittle being out mean? All that and more?

416
00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:08,080
Speaker 4: With Hugh, we're considering hanging out for an hour. I

417
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:09,800
Speaker 4: think we will do that. Have v here with us

418
00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:12,840
Speaker 4: until six o'clock tonight, and then Larry Krueger from K

428
00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:39,560
Speaker 5: Just kind of felt a little a little something out

429
00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:43,960
Speaker 5: bleak just didn't want to push it. You know, it

430
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:45,800
Speaker 5: wasn't the day to push it. So that was that

431
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:46,200
Speaker 5: was it.

432
00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:48,720
Speaker 4: So I just came in, said, I got some rehab

433
00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:51,120
Speaker 4: and you know, feel like I'll be ready.

434
00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:51,639
Speaker 5: To go for Saturday.

435
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:56,439
Speaker 3: You think she might not play, It's.

436
00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:58,680
Speaker 5: A very low percentage, probably closer to zero.

437
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:02,200
Speaker 6: All right, darnold, that was yesterday talking about.

438
00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:04,119
Speaker 5: His oblique injury. Humillan rejoins us.

439
00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:07,639

440
00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:10,320
Speaker 4: Doors open eleven o'clock tomorrow morning. By the way, I

441
00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:14,560
Speaker 4: would get here early, like be online at like ten o'clock. Honestly, tomorrow,

442
00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:16,720
Speaker 4: get here way early. This play is gonna fill up

443
00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:19,280
Speaker 4: and fill up fast tomorrow for the Seahawk game. Obviously

444
00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:21,320
Speaker 4: got a game at one thirty as well. So hu

445
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:24,400
Speaker 4: Millan rejoins us, and here we're talking in the last

446
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,600
Speaker 4: segment about this matchup tomorrow and if Mike McDonald Clint

447
00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:28,960
Speaker 4: Kubiak need to.

448
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 5: Really change anything.

449
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:32,680
Speaker 4: I mean, you talked about maybe wanting a few more

450
00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:36,840
Speaker 4: shots open, open the offense up a little bit more.

451
00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:41,280
Speaker 4: But is there anything schematically from Game two to Game

452
00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:45,480
Speaker 4: three that you'd like to see the Seahawks do differently tomorrow.

453
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:50,240
Speaker 3: On offense or defense? I think one go ahead.

454
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:50,760
Speaker 5: Yeah.

455
00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:55,120
Speaker 8: Well, I think offensively we touched on let's be more aggressive. Uh,

456
00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:59,000
Speaker 8: that would be my thought, but it's hard to argue

457
00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:01,120
Speaker 8: with you know, you're up at one hundred and seven,

458
00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:04,760
Speaker 8: you know, push one hundred and seventy yards rushing, But

459
00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:07,480
Speaker 8: I would just say red zone, more aggression on red zone.

460
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:10,399
Speaker 8: They're they're at two point two yards per attempt on

461
00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:15,000
Speaker 8: first down in the red zone. On the rushing, you know,

462
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:17,840
Speaker 8: I'd maybe want to see some more play action, take

463
00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:19,119
Speaker 8: a shot to the end zone.

464
00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:20,679
Speaker 3: Rasik Shahad.

465
00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:23,119
Speaker 8: We have not seen the go ball from him, we

466
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:26,359
Speaker 8: have not seen the post ball from him. We know

467
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:29,160
Speaker 8: he has a speed, but let's see if we can't

468
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:34,080
Speaker 8: hit a big one with him. Defensively, I think I

469
00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:36,080
Speaker 8: don't know that you change things up. You just kind

470
00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:39,040
Speaker 8: of wait to see what Shanahan's doing. I mean, the

471
00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:42,919
Speaker 8: game plan was perfect, right, I mean, there's so much

472
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:46,320
Speaker 8: to discuss here. The forty nine ers a little bit

473
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:49,879
Speaker 8: different from a personnel standpoint, but where Seattle was it

474
00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:53,720
Speaker 8: was basically they feel like the Seahawks feel like they

475
00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:56,320
Speaker 8: had a beat on what San Francisco wanted to do.

476
00:23:56,640 --> 00:24:01,080
Speaker 8: And if Purdy gets back and he throws without a hitch,

477
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:06,560
Speaker 8: rally and tackle and the forty nine ers they had

478
00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,480
Speaker 8: an average of one hundred and eight yards yards after

479
00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:12,040
Speaker 8: the catch for the entire season, they had a season

480
00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:16,040
Speaker 8: low fifty five zero yards yards after the catch against Seattle.

481
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:20,840
Speaker 8: Seattle tackled great, they closed space great. Uh and and

482
00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:23,480
Speaker 8: so I think it would be hard. They'd be hard

483
00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:27,879
Speaker 8: pressed to want to change their game plan significantly until

484
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:33,080
Speaker 8: they see what what Shanahan may have in store for them.

485
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:36,280
Speaker 9: Hugh, how does the forty nine er offensive attack change

486
00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:37,200
Speaker 9: now without Kittle?

487
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:41,920
Speaker 8: Well, there's a couple of guys here. You know, Chent

488
00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:45,240
Speaker 8: Williams is back in Kittle's out And if you look

489
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:49,400
Speaker 8: at Kittle, he has been a forty nine Er since

490
00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:54,000
Speaker 8: twenty seventeen. The forty nine Ers with Kittle in the

491
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:57,600
Speaker 8: lineup are eighty fifth and fifty seven five eighty four

492
00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:04,680
Speaker 8: win percentage. Without Kittle, there eleven and fourteen for forty percentage. Okay, okay,

493
00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:08,119
Speaker 8: So and you know their their yards per Russia tempt

494
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:11,840
Speaker 8: goes from four point five to four point one. So

495
00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:15,960
Speaker 8: here's a guy that has been a great blocker and

496
00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:20,240
Speaker 8: not just run blocker, but he's had He had twenty

497
00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:24,040
Speaker 8: five pass blocks this season. Three in the game against Seattle,

498
00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:29,280
Speaker 8: asked Nuosu about George Kittle as a passblocker because Nuosa

499
00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:32,600
Speaker 8: was matched up one on one with him. Perdy had

500
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:35,880
Speaker 8: a drop back, took three hitches through a third down

501
00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:39,879
Speaker 8: conversion over on a comeback on the sideline, and Nuosu

502
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:43,720
Speaker 8: wasn't within two club links of Brock Perdy. And he

503
00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 8: also had one against Boy Mafia. I mean a Kittle

504
00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:49,800
Speaker 8: can pass block, So that's a portion. And then the

505
00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:51,840
Speaker 8: other part of it is he ran a four or

506
00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:55,199
Speaker 8: five to two at the combine this Tonguus ran a

507
00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:59,520
Speaker 8: four to seven to seven two and a half tens

508
00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:02,920
Speaker 8: of a second. That means you go from one of

509
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,040
Speaker 8: the fastest tight ends in the league to one of

510
00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:08,359
Speaker 8: the slowest. And so that is an effect. They're gonna

511
00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:11,800
Speaker 8: miskill a lot in addition to him being a leader

512
00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:16,280
Speaker 8: of sorts, just from his competitiveness and everything he's accomplished.

513
00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:17,880
Speaker 4: Well, let me ask you this, is that a net

514
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:21,439
Speaker 4: positive for San Francisco? I mean, Trent Williams did not

515
00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:23,760
Speaker 4: play right in a Week eight team, but George Kittle

516
00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:27,720
Speaker 4: did kittle out Trent Williams back Pearsall too right, But

517
00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:30,919
Speaker 4: let's just forget Pearsall for a second with Kettle versus

518
00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:33,560
Speaker 4: Trent Williams. Is that a net positive or a net

519
00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 4: win for them? Or is it a washer or is

520
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:37,560
Speaker 4: it a is it a net negative?

521
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:37,920
Speaker 5: You think?

522
00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:39,160
Speaker 3: I feel like it's a wash?

523
00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:44,040
Speaker 8: Okay, you know, by the way, Trent Williams he came

524
00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:49,800
Speaker 8: to the forty nine ers at age thirty. He played

525
00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:53,880
Speaker 8: his last year age thirty with Washington. They are fifty

526
00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:57,040
Speaker 8: five and twenty nine with Trent Williams in the lineup,

527
00:26:57,119 --> 00:26:58,040
Speaker 8: six fifty five.

528
00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:00,800
Speaker 4: Well, you guys know how old he is, by the way, right,

529
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:04,840
Speaker 4: Trent Williams. Yeah, he's like he's thirty seven and he's

530
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:07,240
Speaker 4: so old. Remember when he punched Richard Sherman to the

531
00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:12,520
Speaker 4: face in the Redskins game in twenty thirteen, twenty thirteen playoff.

532
00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:15,439
Speaker 4: Before the end of that, that's how long that dude,

533
00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:18,399
Speaker 4: guys has been around. He's the dude that sucked Richard

534
00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:21,240
Speaker 4: Sherman right in the mouth post game after that Redskins

535
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:21,880
Speaker 4: playoff game.

536
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:23,520
Speaker 3: He well check this out.

537
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:28,280
Speaker 8: They are four and thirteen without him in the forty

538
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:31,320
Speaker 8: nine and in his tenure at San Francisco a two

539
00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:35,919
Speaker 8: thirty five win percentage if you take the playoffs, there

540
00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:38,800
Speaker 8: are is six sixty win percentage with him.

541
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:40,440
Speaker 3: And by the way, check this out.

542
00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:45,920
Speaker 8: Points with Trent Williams twenty five point nine points without

543
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:49,639
Speaker 8: Trent Williams eighteen point nine. That's exactly seven points. Hell,

544
00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:52,639
Speaker 8: quarterbacks don't swing a line seven points. I'm not saying

545
00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:56,719
Speaker 8: they would swing a Vegas line. But yards per rush,

546
00:27:56,760 --> 00:27:59,960
Speaker 8: excuse me, rushing yards per game one hundred and thirty

547
00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:03,000
Speaker 8: three with Trent Williams ninety four without. I mean, we're

548
00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:06,600
Speaker 8: talking about thirty nine yard difference. So this is a guy.

549
00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:08,760
Speaker 8: It's not I don't think it's just that he's the

550
00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:12,800
Speaker 8: Hall of Fame left tackle. It's probably the confidence and

551
00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:16,400
Speaker 8: the schemes that they feel comfortable with. So so he's

552
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:18,560
Speaker 8: a dude now and he's back. I don't know if

553
00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:21,840
Speaker 8: he's one hundred percent, but you lose kittle. Uh, he

554
00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:24,760
Speaker 8: gained Trent Williams. It feels like it's aboutt a wash,

555
00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:26,440
Speaker 8: But I could make an argument for either one.

556
00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:27,000
Speaker 5: Hughes.

557
00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:29,320
Speaker 9: He's still performing that way though, because those numbers you

558
00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:31,760
Speaker 9: throw out are like, twenty eight year old Trent Williams,

559
00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:33,600
Speaker 9: twenty nine year old, middle of his prime.

560
00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:34,280
Speaker 3: This is thirty two.

561
00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:36,960
Speaker 8: Those are all post No, those are all posts he

562
00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:40,280
Speaker 8: was he was thirty. Those are all in his thirties.

563
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:40,880
Speaker 8: Since in his.

564
00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:43,920
Speaker 7: Thirties, Okay, but still thirty and thirty seven are agreed.

565
00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:45,640
Speaker 3: Agreed. Yeah, I watched it.

566
00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:48,640
Speaker 8: I watched the tape the Eagles. You know, he looked

567
00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:51,200
Speaker 8: like he got off balance a little bit. So there's

568
00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:54,200
Speaker 8: times where you go, oh, that's that looks a little

569
00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:55,680
Speaker 8: old manish, but.

570
00:28:57,120 --> 00:28:59,560
Speaker 3: That's uh. But then there's times where you say, what

571
00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:00,080
Speaker 3: a minute.

572
00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:04,400
Speaker 8: Nobody's getting around him, nobody's getting near brock Purdy on

573
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:08,200
Speaker 8: his side. So I think they're delighted to have him back.

574
00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:10,120
Speaker 8: For some of the numbers I said, you're addition to

575
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:11,200
Speaker 8: the leadership part of it.

576
00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:13,760
Speaker 4: Well, let's we'll see. Maybe they Ham who's gonna be

577
00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:16,240
Speaker 4: problematic again for him. We never know he's back, but

578
00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:18,040
Speaker 4: it may not be one hundred percent back. All right, here,

579
00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:19,960
Speaker 4: we're gonna break, come back and wrap it up with you,

580
00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:21,920
Speaker 4: and then Larry Krueger from K and B are going

Speaker 4: who said we want the Hawks.

593
00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:54,640
Speaker 6: Bring on the Hawks.

594
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:57,240

595
00:29:57,320 --> 00:29:59,760
Speaker 4: pie hole this week like he was before a week.

596

600
00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:10,560
Speaker 4: surprise you if I told you the Seahawks Niners was

601
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:13,400
Speaker 4: the most expensive game left in the divisional round this

602
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:16,320
Speaker 4: weekend for sixty to get in the door at venue

603

611
00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:38,800
Speaker 4: that defense for a little bit, man, some general thoughts

612
00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:40,400
Speaker 4: on the d tomorrow because I think a lot of

613
00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:42,720
Speaker 4: us are just kind of relying on the defense to

614
00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:44,680
Speaker 4: do what they've done for the last maybe eight or

615
00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:46,400
Speaker 4: nine weeks and carry the day tomorrow.

616
00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:49,000
Speaker 8: I got so many thoughts just watching the tape, love

617
00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:51,720
Speaker 8: and watching the tape. But random shout out to Byron

618
00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:53,360
Speaker 8: Murphy coming out of Texas.

619
00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:54,600
Speaker 3: His last year there.

620
00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:57,320
Speaker 8: With the Longhorns, he was forty eight percent of the

621
00:30:57,360 --> 00:31:00,920
Speaker 8: defensive snaps and there was questions about, Hey, why is

622
00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:03,800
Speaker 8: he you know, does he have a stamina issue? That's

623
00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:07,000
Speaker 8: is our durability issue? And then last year's rookie year

624
00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:10,400
Speaker 8: fell to forty three percent of the Seahawks snaps. This

625
00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:12,480
Speaker 8: year he jacked it up to seventy three and a

626
00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:17,000
Speaker 8: half percent of the snaps played Pro Bowl near all

627
00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:20,080
Speaker 8: pro level, taken on double team, So shout for him.

628
00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:20,960
Speaker 5: Uh.

629
00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:23,000
Speaker 8: Then the other part of it is, you know, when

630
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:27,640
Speaker 8: I watch Kyle Shanahan, he's brilliant offensively, but when a

631
00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:30,120
Speaker 8: defense is smacking you in the fact, it's kind of

632
00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:31,280
Speaker 8: that that Mike Tyson.

633
00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:33,600
Speaker 3: Everybody's got a plan until you get hit in the mouth.

634
00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:34,080
Speaker 5: Right.

635
00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:38,920
Speaker 8: There's a fine line between Shanahan and the beautiful misdirection

636
00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:42,720
Speaker 8: that when it works, and there's a fine line between

637
00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:49,480
Speaker 8: very creative and just kind of almost too gimmicky, too

638
00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:55,040
Speaker 8: much misdirection. And and it's as if the Seahawks are

639
00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:57,800
Speaker 8: coached like, hey, just let the magic show play out.

640
00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:01,040
Speaker 8: They're gonna be all this misdirection in front. At some

641
00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:04,200
Speaker 8: point the balls got to declare where it's going. And

642
00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:06,840
Speaker 8: there's a couple of plays that just really impressed me.

643
00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:07,600
Speaker 5: Uh.

644
00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:10,920
Speaker 8: The one time that Seattle rushed more than five in

645
00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:15,040
Speaker 8: the whole game they played. Coach, some coaches are gonna

646
00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:17,640
Speaker 8: shake that ahead and go how could that happen? But

647
00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:20,080
Speaker 8: I honest to god, they played a two deep three

648
00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:22,960
Speaker 8: under zone. Those are massive holes, and yet the way

649
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:25,240
Speaker 8: they matched it on that fourth down, they were trying

650
00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:27,920
Speaker 8: to get Kittle on a sail route the safety, everything

651
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:28,800
Speaker 8: was bottled up.

652
00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:30,120
Speaker 3: They couldn't get it.

653
00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:32,720
Speaker 8: So they're able to They're playing zone coverage with five

654
00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:36,800
Speaker 8: freaking dudes, and they know exactly what's coming at them.

655
00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:37,480
Speaker 3: The other one.

656
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:41,440
Speaker 8: While Seattle is for the season eighty point four percent

657
00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:45,200
Speaker 8: zone four out of five plays they play zone against

658
00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:50,160
Speaker 8: these beleaguered forty nine or receivers, they played a little

659
00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:52,520
Speaker 8: bit more man and man in the week eighteen game,

660
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:56,080
Speaker 8: and there's guys you know, like Sky Moore, a wide

661
00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:58,640
Speaker 8: receiver for San Francisco. Just a dude, man, he's an

662
00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:02,280
Speaker 8: August player, is not a January player. Sorry to pick

663
00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:05,680
Speaker 8: on him, but one of my favorite plays was in

664
00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:08,200
Speaker 8: a man and man. By the way, nine plays Seattle

665
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:11,560
Speaker 8: in Week eighteen playing cover one, that's man and man.

666
00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:13,720
Speaker 8: Every time they played man and man, they had exactly

667
00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:16,040
Speaker 8: one safety in the middle of the field, never two.

668
00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:19,959
Speaker 8: Never zero one safety and the forty nine ers in

669
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:24,120
Speaker 8: those nine plays a massed exactly eighteen yards obviously two

670
00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:26,320
Speaker 8: yards per play. But one of the plays I really

671
00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:29,800
Speaker 8: loved was Reek Wollen. Of all people, Reek walland lines up.

672
00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:32,320
Speaker 8: We just heard from Juwan Jennings he wants to smoke

673
00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:34,680
Speaker 8: from Seattle. How about this? On that play, he's lined

674
00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:37,480
Speaker 8: up in the left slot. They're doing this magic show.

675
00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:40,120
Speaker 8: They've got fake fly sweeks, they got running backs going

676
00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:42,400
Speaker 8: this way that way. They're trying to create all this

677
00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:46,200
Speaker 8: misdirection and then throw it to jun Jennings. Well, Reek

678
00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:49,360
Speaker 8: Willen in man to man, he had to run behind.

679
00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:53,760
Speaker 8: There was a if Seattle wasn't better coached, there may

680
00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:55,800
Speaker 8: have been a collision with him and Drake Thomas. Drake

681
00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:59,200
Speaker 8: Thompson's recognized. He just cleared out the way for Rek

682
00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:02,200
Speaker 8: Willing to do his job. He Thomas did his job.

683
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:05,200
Speaker 8: And Rik wooland you want to talk about a turbo button.

684
00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:07,480
Speaker 8: They throw the ball out in the right flat and

685
00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:10,839
Speaker 8: Rik Wool and it's like an xbox. He just goes

686
00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:15,080
Speaker 8: grabs Juwan Jennings throws him down for a loss of one,

687
00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:18,920
Speaker 8: and it's as if to say, you and your little

688
00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:21,680
Speaker 8: smoking mirrors, Kyle Shannah and you're doing all this stuff.

689
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:25,320
Speaker 8: You know, it's it looks like some kind of flag

690
00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:28,200
Speaker 8: football from you know, middle schoolers with all this fake

691
00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:31,920
Speaker 8: here fake and Seattle just like hit him in the mouth.

692
00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:35,680
Speaker 8: I love that physicality. And you watch that tape and

693
00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:39,120
Speaker 8: it hits you, like all this mistreat. They're trying to

694
00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:41,680
Speaker 8: trick Seattle. They're trying to trick Seattle. They don't want

695
00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:43,440
Speaker 8: to line up and play. They used to line up

696
00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:46,399
Speaker 8: with ust Jeff and play with the lead fullback. They

697
00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:51,920
Speaker 8: only had three runs from under center and Seattle had

698
00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:56,040
Speaker 8: thirty three. Like they are not playing to their identity.

699
00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:59,520
Speaker 8: They're trying to trick people, and Seattle was having none

700
00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:02,160
Speaker 8: of it. And I don't think they're having any of

701
00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:04,640
Speaker 8: it on the game tomorrow night.

702
00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:07,640
Speaker 9: Final thing for me, we've talked about the x's and o's,

703
00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:09,960
Speaker 9: we've talked about the physical side. Let's talk about the

704
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,799
Speaker 9: psychological side. Because Mike Floria had an interesting quote when

705
00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:15,080
Speaker 9: he was on with us on Wednesday. He said, quote,

706
00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:18,719
Speaker 9: you have to overcome that it was so easy the

707
00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:21,360
Speaker 9: last time. How big a concern is that for you?

708
00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:21,759
Speaker 3: Yeah?

709
00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:24,160
Speaker 8: He's right, Yeah, I think it's a big concern. I

710
00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:26,600
Speaker 8: think that there's a fine line. You'd say, say, how

711
00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:28,960
Speaker 8: could it fall? It could be Seattle has a lot

712
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:33,120
Speaker 8: of confidence, and so they just bring that, you know,

713
00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:37,960
Speaker 8: essentially into the fifth quarter of a like a soccer jackson.

714
00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:40,960
Speaker 8: Don't they play soccer playoff games where it's like a

715
00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:45,200
Speaker 8: combination of two games or something like. So Seattle's going

716
00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:48,280
Speaker 8: to want to have that confidence, but you better respect

717
00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:52,120
Speaker 8: these guys. Meanwhile, San Francisco, on their part, they could

718
00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:55,319
Speaker 8: be a little bit fragile. They might look and say, hey,

719
00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:57,759
Speaker 8: this isn't our year. I think the first quarter is

720
00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:02,239
Speaker 8: very important. There's a chance could make this an easy contest,

721
00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:05,600
Speaker 8: and it would happen in the first quarter, right as

722
00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:09,120
Speaker 8: if to say, yep, lather rints repeat, it's exactly like

723
00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:13,839
Speaker 8: week eighteen. But if some plays materialize and San Francisco says,

724
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:15,560
Speaker 8: hey we got a new plant, this is a new day.

725
00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:19,520
Speaker 8: Yep h, then you know that could be a factor. Yes,

726
00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:22,080
Speaker 8: I agree with Florio, that is a potential.

727
00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:23,919
Speaker 6: Let me ask you this, if you win the coin toss,

728
00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:24,520
Speaker 6: you want the ball.

729
00:36:26,040 --> 00:36:28,239
Speaker 8: I think you just do what you've done. I think

730
00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:31,560
Speaker 8: that they they like to defer. They like that swing,

731
00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:34,319
Speaker 8: you know, the eight minutes swing, four minutes to the

732
00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:36,959
Speaker 8: last four minutes of the second quarter, first four minutes

733
00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:37,600
Speaker 8: and third quarter.

734
00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:39,600
Speaker 3: So I think you just do what you've been doing.

735
00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:41,880
Speaker 7: That tin of twelves are most revved up anyway.

736
00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:43,640
Speaker 4: Well that's the thing though, is that if you get

737
00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:45,440
Speaker 4: the ball and you shove it down their throat like

738
00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:47,440
Speaker 4: you did the last game with an eight minute drive,

739
00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:49,359
Speaker 4: that could be a backbreaker. I mean, if you're telling

740
00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:51,400
Speaker 4: me the first quarter is that important here, which I

741
00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:53,520
Speaker 4: agree with, I wonder if you think about taking the

742
00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:55,880
Speaker 4: ball if they win the coin toss tomorrow and shoving

743
00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:58,560
Speaker 4: it right down their throat tomorrow. So we'll see, all right, man,

744
00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:01,600
Speaker 4: great stuff and looking forward to tomorrow.

745
00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:03,279

00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:34,600
Speaker 5: One team has a rookie coach, one team has a

778
00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:37,040
Speaker 5: quarterback with a big arm who turns the ball over.

779
00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:39,600
Speaker 5: The other team's got a quarterback that walked off the

780
00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:43,400
Speaker 5: field against Patrick Mahomes a leader, and Kyle Shanahan, who's

781
00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:46,000
Speaker 5: probably a future Hall of Fame coach having his best year.

782
00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:48,920
Speaker 5: The forty nine ers, I get it, Dave, I get it.

783
00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:52,320
Speaker 5: I get it. They don't look on paper very good.

784
00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:56,319
Speaker 5: But if you think this is the same defense that

785
00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:59,799
Speaker 5: you guys played even two weeks ago, I know that's

786
00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:05,640
Speaker 5: but it's not. How was it different. That defense had

787
00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:10,800
Speaker 5: injured linebackers who fell off seventeen tackles, that team couldn't

788
00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:15,560
Speaker 5: tackle CA nine, couldn't tackle Charbonay. They've been replaced by

789
00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:21,640
Speaker 5: Eric Kendricks, Garrett Wallow, Marquis Siegel at safety, and those

790
00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:26,080
Speaker 5: guys are fresh and healthy now. Philly couldn't exploit them.

791
00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:30,200
Speaker 5: We'll see if Clint Kubiak can exploit them, because I

792
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:34,080
Speaker 5: think they definitely can be exploited in the past game.

793
00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:37,960
Speaker 5: But They're way better against the run than the team

794
00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:40,600
Speaker 5: that you saw on week team that fell off of

795
00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:41,759
Speaker 5: tackles and missed a ton.

796
00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:44,359
Speaker 4: God, Dickie's talking about Week eighteen like it was six

797
00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:44,879
Speaker 4: months ago.

798
00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:48,840
Speaker 5: I mean, I understand.

799
00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:52,560
Speaker 9: I appreciate that, I get I appreciate the confidence. I'll

800
00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:54,719
Speaker 9: just I mean, we're gonna stick to facts. I mean,

801
00:39:55,120 --> 00:39:59,359
Speaker 9: tell me how many position groups are better for San

802
00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:01,080
Speaker 9: Francisco than they are for Seattle.

803
00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:05,640
Speaker 5: Well, I mean it's a good point, but ultimately it

804
00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:10,160
Speaker 5: comes down to the efficiency of your quarterback and how

805
00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:13,840
Speaker 5: well can you play. I think the forty four nineers have.

806
00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:17,360
Speaker 5: Christian McCaffrey. Is he better or worse than Canaine and

807
00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:19,200
Speaker 5: sharbon Ay. I think he's better.

808
00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:21,400
Speaker 7: He's had a better career.

809
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:23,400
Speaker 5: He's he's a better player. I mean, he's had a

810
00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:26,879
Speaker 5: better year than those guys. Would you would you not say?

811
00:40:26,920 --> 00:40:29,160
Speaker 9: I would say I would say, I would say in

812
00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:31,359
Speaker 9: the last I would say most of the season. Yes,

813
00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:33,520
Speaker 9: I'd say in the last month, sharbon Ay and Walker

814
00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:34,400
Speaker 9: have been fantastic.

815
00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:37,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, no, no, no question. I mean, you know you

816
00:40:37,640 --> 00:40:39,520
Speaker 5: catch him on the right day, Sharpenay looks better than

817
00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:41,759
Speaker 5: Walker to me some days, Walker looks better than sharponay,

818
00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:45,840
Speaker 5: but Christian McCaffrey, I think is better than those guys.

819
00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:49,279
Speaker 5: But I mean, it's like it's not about you know,

820
00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:52,320
Speaker 5: runners against runners, it's runners against run defense. You know

821
00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:54,960
Speaker 5: what I mean. It's it's your run defense, which is awesome.

822
00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:58,839
Speaker 5: You know, I got great respect for what you guys

823
00:40:58,840 --> 00:41:00,640
Speaker 5: have on the defensive side of the ball. And I

824
00:41:00,640 --> 00:41:03,840
Speaker 5: asked Kyle Shanahan about it. I said, Kyle, what I

825
00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:06,280
Speaker 5: think it was Tuesday? I said, what makes this defense

826
00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:07,879
Speaker 5: so good? And I asked him about it a couple

827
00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:09,759
Speaker 5: of weeks ago, but I asked him again. I said,

828
00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:12,000
Speaker 5: I kind almost apologize for asking him the second same

829
00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:14,200
Speaker 5: question twice. But he made a good point, he said,

830
00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:17,319
Speaker 5: John Schneider, He's like, this defense across the board is

831
00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:21,160
Speaker 5: in year two and they don't just have great personnel.

832
00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:26,520
Speaker 5: They have great personnel that really fits Seattle's scheme, like

833
00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:29,319
Speaker 5: the Drake Thomases of the world and the and the

834
00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:32,520
Speaker 5: you know, the Loves of the world and the you

835
00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:37,280
Speaker 5: know the I mean two defensive tackles. Leonard Williams Murphy.

836
00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:40,520
Speaker 5: I mean, these guys are ideal e man, worry. I mean,

837
00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:43,920
Speaker 5: they're ideally suited to run these roles. So it's a

838
00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:48,520
Speaker 5: really really good defense. Yeah. I just think they ultimately though,

839
00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:52,440
Speaker 5: the forty nine ers played horrible in that game, and

840
00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:55,680
Speaker 5: they what what happened in that game was that you

841
00:41:55,680 --> 00:41:58,920
Speaker 5: guys have a great defense, right, but you also dominated

842
00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:01,080
Speaker 5: the time of possession. Yeah, thirty eight minutes. Right, So

843
00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:03,560
Speaker 5: if you do that for the defense, looks like the

844
00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:04,480
Speaker 5: eighty five bears, right.

845
00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:07,680
Speaker 4: And then yeah, but they did that partially because of

846
00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:08,360
Speaker 4: the offense.

847
00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:09,480
Speaker 6: I mean the offense.

848
00:42:09,560 --> 00:42:12,759
Speaker 4: Larry, I told you this last night, and it's about

849
00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:15,080
Speaker 4: time you start listening to me. By the way, I'm

850
00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:17,560
Speaker 4: sick and tired of going on your show and you're

851
00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:20,759
Speaker 4: not listening to me. Okay, so learn something. There were

852
00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:24,799
Speaker 4: three drives. My wife would really I know that. Yeah,

853
00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:25,640
Speaker 4: this whole commentary.

854
00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:28,040
Speaker 5: I'm gonna call her next when this show's over. Okay.

855
00:42:28,320 --> 00:42:31,839
Speaker 4: Seahawks had three drives in that game where they did

856
00:42:31,880 --> 00:42:34,640
Speaker 4: not score, yet they took one third of the game

857
00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:37,000
Speaker 4: off the clock. The first drive of the game where

858
00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:39,760
Speaker 4: Darnell misses a white up player, which doesn't happen very often.

859
00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:42,520
Speaker 4: Myers missed two kicks in the same game, doesn't.

860
00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:42,960
Speaker 5: Happen very often.

861
00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:47,280
Speaker 4: If we're just sitting here as impartial observers, which were not. Okay,

862
00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:50,200
Speaker 4: you're a Niner lover. I'm a Seahawk lover. Let's just

863
00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:52,320
Speaker 4: get it out there and admit it. We're both capable

864
00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:54,600
Speaker 4: of fair analysis. But we're both fans.

865
00:42:54,640 --> 00:42:56,960
Speaker 5: Okay, a medium.

866
00:42:57,120 --> 00:42:57,640
Speaker 6: No, you're not.

867
00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:03,759
Speaker 5: You've got with actionally yours of Princess Leah costume. You've

868
00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:06,160
Speaker 5: got your head. I mean, let's be real about it.

869
00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:08,560
Speaker 4: First of all, Hawk Blogger told you that two nights ago,

870
00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:10,680
Speaker 4: number one and number two.

871
00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:11,000
Speaker 6: I did.

872
00:43:11,200 --> 00:43:13,480
Speaker 5: I had you on my YouTube channel, took me for

873
00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:16,560
Speaker 5: a turn of your house. I've seen Princess Leah.

874
00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:20,160
Speaker 4: I'm just trying to figure out how far up Shanahan's

875
00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:23,279
Speaker 4: ass your head really is, Okay, because I know my

876
00:43:23,400 --> 00:43:26,160
Speaker 4: head's up the Seahawks, asked, mean, you might be further

877
00:43:26,239 --> 00:43:26,480
Speaker 4: than me.

878
00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:28,560
Speaker 6: But that game, the.

879
00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:31,880
Speaker 4: Mistakes the Seahawks made I feel like we're more about

880
00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:35,279
Speaker 4: the Seahawks making mistakes than you forcing mistakes totally. The

881
00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:38,799
Speaker 4: miss field goals, missing Zack Sharberney, that's got nothing to

882
00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:42,040
Speaker 4: do with you, that's got everything to do with them, And.

883
00:43:42,040 --> 00:43:44,520
Speaker 5: I don't see him doing that again tomorrow. Man. Well, Okay,

884
00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:46,600
Speaker 5: but you know, there's one thing about this matchup, and

885
00:43:46,640 --> 00:43:49,400
Speaker 5: you guys know it. It's a division game. Was a

886
00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:51,520
Speaker 5: division game two weeks ago? Yeah no, But I'm just

887
00:43:51,560 --> 00:43:55,280
Speaker 5: saying these division games you can kind of closer, closer.

888
00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:59,120
Speaker 5: Everything knows one another great co selin on the radio. Yeah,

889
00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:01,040
Speaker 5: he was on the day, by the way, not necessarily

890
00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:06,239
Speaker 5: our station, but the other station, and he he made

891
00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:09,600
Speaker 5: a point that's just kind of a smaller FM deal

892
00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:12,480
Speaker 5: off to the side, not like KMBR with the big blowtorch,

893
00:44:13,040 --> 00:44:16,839
Speaker 5: but another station. Anyway, Greg Cosell made the point that

894
00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:20,200
Speaker 5: it's really really hard to dominate a team physically the

895
00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:23,080
Speaker 5: way that the Hawks dominated the Niners physically in Week eighteen.

896
00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:25,319
Speaker 5: It's hard to do that back to back weeks. Now,

897
00:44:26,120 --> 00:44:28,279
Speaker 5: I personally, why do I like the forty Niners in

898
00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:30,200
Speaker 5: this game? I like the Fournirs in this game because

899
00:44:30,719 --> 00:44:34,319
Speaker 5: I really believe Kyle shanahan is a better coach than McDonald's.

900
00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:37,160
Speaker 5: I think he just out coached Fangio. And I think

901
00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:39,760
Speaker 5: McDonald is a young coach, is a great young coach,

902
00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:42,600
Speaker 5: but I think Kyle Shanahan owes him one. I think

903
00:44:42,640 --> 00:44:46,560
Speaker 5: Kyle Shanahan's gonna scheme up some space. You're right, though,

904
00:44:47,080 --> 00:44:49,759
Speaker 5: the defense was overwhelmed. Me. If we just looked at

905
00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:52,200
Speaker 5: Week eighteen and said, is this a template for this

906
00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:54,719
Speaker 5: for this playoff game, I wouldn't have flown up here

907
00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:56,600
Speaker 5: on a bird. And I'm gonna be sitting here right

908
00:44:56,640 --> 00:45:00,000
Speaker 5: now if I really thought Week eighteen was indicative. I'll

909
00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:03,800
Speaker 5: say this about the Niners, it's a it's a different

910
00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:06,920
Speaker 5: deal this time. It's like, is this one of the

911
00:45:06,920 --> 00:45:11,000
Speaker 5: best Niner teams? No? Right, but it might be the

912
00:45:11,160 --> 00:45:13,880
Speaker 5: run might be the kind of the grittiest. I mean, like,

913
00:45:14,080 --> 00:45:16,759
Speaker 5: is this Mariners team that you saw this year? Have

914
00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:19,759
Speaker 5: they had better teams? Yes? Possibly? Yes, But man, there

915
00:45:19,800 --> 00:45:22,120
Speaker 5: was a great factor to the Mariners at the end

916
00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:24,080
Speaker 5: of the year. And I just feel like there's a

917
00:45:24,320 --> 00:45:26,800
Speaker 5: there's a great factor to this Nighter team. I'll just

918
00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:29,600
Speaker 5: say this, there's no The feeling in their locker room

919
00:45:29,640 --> 00:45:32,959
Speaker 5: this week wasn't like, oh my god, we're going into

920
00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:35,680
Speaker 5: a house of horrors. Sure, it was like, hey, man,

921
00:45:36,360 --> 00:45:40,080
Speaker 5: we got this. We're doing this. They're in our way.

922
00:45:40,320 --> 00:45:42,760
Speaker 5: We're moving them out of the way. So the Niners

923
00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:44,680
Speaker 5: expect to be here, The Hawks expected to be here.

924
00:45:44,719 --> 00:45:46,680
Speaker 5: I think the most amazing part about the matchup is

925
00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:52,520
Speaker 5: that both sides have unbelievable confidence, and somebody's confidence is

926
00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:54,920
Speaker 5: going to be shaken by the end of that game.

927
00:45:55,120 --> 00:45:58,000
Speaker 9: Larry Krueger joining US pre and post media Maven from

928
00:45:58,040 --> 00:45:59,920
Speaker 9: the Bay Area up here on a bird to the

929
00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:02,040
Speaker 9: to the Pacific Northwest. I want to get your take

930
00:46:02,080 --> 00:46:06,480
Speaker 9: on Sam Donald because the hate is real, and it's

931
00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:09,360
Speaker 9: not just national hate. I mean there's local hate for

932
00:46:09,440 --> 00:46:12,240
Speaker 9: Sam Donald, despite the fact he is the best quarterback

933
00:46:12,280 --> 00:46:14,480
Speaker 9: win loss record in the last three years in the NFL.

934
00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:17,760
Speaker 9: The yards per drop back, which our man Hugh Millen

935
00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:20,320
Speaker 9: has explained to us many many times, is the most

936
00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:23,240
Speaker 9: predictive of winning than any other quarterback stat.

937
00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:27,239
Speaker 7: He's number one in the NFL this season. He's one

938
00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:27,800
Speaker 7: big games.

939
00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:30,200
Speaker 9: He beat the Rams a few weeks ago, coming back

940
00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:32,239
Speaker 9: with a couple of late scores to win that game.

941
00:46:32,239 --> 00:46:34,200
Speaker 7: He beat Green Bay last year in a big game.

942
00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:36,279
Speaker 7: Why does none of the.

943
00:46:36,400 --> 00:46:40,200
Speaker 9: Positive stick to Sam Donald and yet all the negative

944
00:46:40,200 --> 00:46:41,680
Speaker 9: sticks to Sam Donald.

945
00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:44,080
Speaker 5: I don't even know. You know the old saying if

946
00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:46,480
Speaker 5: your premise is wrong or your conclusion by definition is

947
00:46:46,480 --> 00:46:48,000
Speaker 5: going to be wrong. I don't know that your premise

948
00:46:48,080 --> 00:46:51,800
Speaker 5: is right. I mean he Minnesota wanted him. You guys

949
00:46:51,880 --> 00:46:55,040
Speaker 5: wanted him, right, you signed him. So I don't know

950
00:46:55,080 --> 00:46:57,720
Speaker 5: that there's like the personnel people who run this league

951
00:46:57,840 --> 00:46:59,000
Speaker 5: I think have a pretty high pat.

952
00:46:59,080 --> 00:47:00,920
Speaker 9: Oh I'm not talking about those. I'm talking about the

953
00:47:01,040 --> 00:47:03,040
Speaker 9: general Wells turnover perspective.

954
00:47:03,239 --> 00:47:05,520
Speaker 5: It's just turnovers. He had a lot of turnovers in

955
00:47:05,680 --> 00:47:07,840
Speaker 5: sc Then he had that one moment with it was

956
00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:10,920
Speaker 5: the Jets where he's like he the've Mike heard him

957
00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:13,560
Speaker 5: on the mic saying, you know, I saw ghosts or whatever.

958
00:47:13,640 --> 00:47:16,000
Speaker 5: Man that whole moment that didn't help him. I'll say this,

959
00:47:16,120 --> 00:47:18,680
Speaker 5: I know Sam Donald really well. I've interviewed him a bunch.

960
00:47:20,239 --> 00:47:24,080
Speaker 5: He found himself because of Brock Purty. Now a lot

961
00:47:24,080 --> 00:47:26,400
Speaker 5: of people point to Kyle Shanahan and say, oh, he

962
00:47:26,400 --> 00:47:28,839
Speaker 5: found himself because of Kyle Shanahan. Now, if you go

963
00:47:28,920 --> 00:47:32,960
Speaker 5: ask Sam, he would tell you it wasn't Kyle, though

964
00:47:33,040 --> 00:47:37,680
Speaker 5: Kyle helped. It was Purty and watching party process and

965
00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:41,040
Speaker 5: watching party get ready for a game and go through

966
00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:46,560
Speaker 5: every possible scenario. Brock Purty is is meticulous. Here's a play,

967
00:47:46,960 --> 00:47:49,719
Speaker 5: what coverage could we see on that play? What's my

968
00:47:49,840 --> 00:47:54,000
Speaker 5: answer against this coverage, that coverage, that coverage, that coverage,

969
00:47:54,040 --> 00:47:56,120
Speaker 5: that coverage. And Sam told me at the end of

970
00:47:56,160 --> 00:47:58,680
Speaker 5: the year when he was with the Niners, He's like,

971
00:47:58,719 --> 00:48:01,400
Speaker 5: you know what, I've learned so much from Brock that

972
00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:06,000
Speaker 5: you know, because now his preparation has changed the way

973
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:10,319
Speaker 5: I prepare. I think Brock party that year with Brock

974
00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:12,680
Speaker 5: perty made him who he is, and he carried it

975
00:48:12,680 --> 00:48:15,600
Speaker 5: to Minnesota. He's carried it here. As far as the

976
00:48:15,640 --> 00:48:20,560
Speaker 5: noise around him, that's just fans being fans. Sam Donald

977
00:48:20,840 --> 00:48:23,520
Speaker 5: on the twenty five yard The eighteen to twenty five

978
00:48:23,560 --> 00:48:26,160
Speaker 5: yard cut pattern at JSN is one of the most

979
00:48:26,440 --> 00:48:30,640
Speaker 5: unstoppable things in football today. And that's my biggest fear

980
00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:32,759
Speaker 5: in this thing. I think the Niners could get the

981
00:48:33,120 --> 00:48:34,759
Speaker 5: I think the Niners could win on first down, they

982
00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:36,760
Speaker 5: can win on second down. They could get the Hawks

983
00:48:36,800 --> 00:48:40,160
Speaker 5: into third and ten or longer, and still Sam Donald

984
00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:43,560
Speaker 5: has the ability to just rip it to the perimeter

985
00:48:43,920 --> 00:48:46,960
Speaker 5: to JSN and he's and he knows he knows him

986
00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:49,400
Speaker 5: so well they can throw it with timing. It's almost

987
00:48:49,640 --> 00:48:52,440
Speaker 5: it's almost impossible to stop. So you're gonna have to

988
00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:54,960
Speaker 5: get The one thing about Seattle is they're kind of

989
00:48:54,960 --> 00:48:58,040
Speaker 5: a one wide receiver team, even though there's Russ Sheen,

990
00:48:58,280 --> 00:49:02,080
Speaker 5: you know, Rashid and there's other guys here, but I

991
00:49:02,080 --> 00:49:06,080
Speaker 5: mean obviously Cooper Cup. But they're going to JSN. Yeah, yeah,

992
00:49:06,160 --> 00:49:09,080
Speaker 5: that's a major advantage. So the forty nine ers should

993
00:49:09,120 --> 00:49:12,800
Speaker 5: be able to put some bodies between Darnold and Jaysn

994
00:49:13,600 --> 00:49:15,000
Speaker 5: since they know he's going there.

995
00:49:15,080 --> 00:49:17,600
Speaker 4: Well, Larry Krueger is with us in person at the

996
00:49:17,640 --> 00:49:19,440
Speaker 4: ox Hall across.

997
00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:21,279
Speaker 5: From Lumenfield K and b are.

998
00:49:21,680 --> 00:49:24,000
Speaker 4: We wanted Gary Radnich, but he retired, so we got

999
00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:27,560
Speaker 4: Larry instead. Here on the radio shows, how's Gary Dowing?

1000
00:49:27,600 --> 00:49:29,879
Speaker 5: By the way, is he good? Carry stunk? All right? Tom?

1001
00:49:30,000 --> 00:49:30,759
Speaker 5: He gives us love?

1002
00:49:30,840 --> 00:49:31,799
Speaker 6: Yeah, tell him we said hello.

1003
00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:34,719
Speaker 4: But I'm wondering how much of because there is a

1004
00:49:34,760 --> 00:49:38,520
Speaker 4: lot of cockiness from Niner fans really yeah, oh yeah,

1005
00:49:38,600 --> 00:49:40,960
Speaker 4: And I'm sure if we go down there, our fans

1006
00:49:40,960 --> 00:49:43,239
Speaker 4: would be just as cocky towards you guys as you

1007
00:49:43,239 --> 00:49:46,480
Speaker 4: guys are. As part of this easy answer, it's a rivalry.

1008
00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:48,960
Speaker 4: We don't like you, you don't like us, right at

1009
00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:50,839
Speaker 4: least on the football field. We got along great off

1010
00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:53,560
Speaker 4: the air, but on the air football field, whatever, how

1011
00:49:53,680 --> 00:49:57,759
Speaker 4: much of that is Niner fans still holding on to

1012
00:49:57,840 --> 00:50:01,279
Speaker 4: the past, because, as Washington football fans, Dick and I

1013
00:50:01,320 --> 00:50:03,000
Speaker 4: take a lot of heat from people, Well you guys

1014
00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:05,200
Speaker 4: are just thinking about ninety one when you won the

1015
00:50:05,280 --> 00:50:08,480
Speaker 4: national championship. It was thirty five years ago. Well, you

1016
00:50:08,520 --> 00:50:11,280
Speaker 4: guys haven't won a title in thirty two fricking years,

1017
00:50:11,280 --> 00:50:14,200
Speaker 4: for God's sakes. I mean, you are closer your last

1018
00:50:14,239 --> 00:50:17,839
Speaker 4: title is closer to the moon landing than you are

1019
00:50:17,960 --> 00:50:21,480
Speaker 4: to present day. That's how long that's been. So how

1020
00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:24,920
Speaker 4: much of this is just cockiness to be cocky, and

1021
00:50:24,960 --> 00:50:27,480
Speaker 4: how much of this is Niner fans they just still

1022
00:50:27,560 --> 00:50:30,960
Speaker 4: think of this franchise as the team that won five

1023
00:50:31,160 --> 00:50:32,919
Speaker 4: championships between.

1024
00:50:32,600 --> 00:50:34,879
Speaker 5: The early eighties and ninety four. Well, I mean it's

1025
00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:36,720
Speaker 5: still the same franchise.

1026
00:50:37,280 --> 00:50:41,440
Speaker 4: The different owner, all that stuff. Well no, well you

1027
00:50:41,520 --> 00:50:43,239
Speaker 4: got the daughter. No, I get that part. I get

1028
00:50:43,320 --> 00:50:45,279
Speaker 4: that part, but it's a different deal.

1029
00:50:45,320 --> 00:50:47,839
Speaker 5: They know. Let me, there was no cap before. Yeah,

1030
00:50:47,840 --> 00:50:50,560
Speaker 5: that's the real difference, right. But I mean, forty nine

1031
00:50:50,680 --> 00:50:52,480
Speaker 5: fans just have a lot of belief. I mean they

1032
00:50:52,520 --> 00:50:54,759
Speaker 5: just have a lot of confidence. I think it has

1033
00:50:54,800 --> 00:50:56,640
Speaker 5: a lot to do with the with Brock Perdy and

1034
00:50:56,719 --> 00:50:58,840
Speaker 5: Kyle Shanahan. To be completely honest, I just think that

1035
00:50:58,880 --> 00:51:01,480
Speaker 5: there's a lot of yef that the four and there's

1036
00:51:01,520 --> 00:51:03,399
Speaker 5: a lot of you know, guys like my age. I'm

1037
00:51:03,440 --> 00:51:06,440
Speaker 5: fifty five. I saw Joe, I saw Steve. I was

1038
00:51:06,480 --> 00:51:09,840
Speaker 5: there for Super Bowl sixteen. There's guys walking around with

1039
00:51:09,880 --> 00:51:11,520
Speaker 5: thirty years old. I've never seen the forty nine ers

1040
00:51:11,560 --> 00:51:14,839
Speaker 5: win a super of course, but they've seen them lose three, right,

1041
00:51:15,160 --> 00:51:17,880
Speaker 5: you know, they lost three in the last decades, So

1042
00:51:19,320 --> 00:51:21,080
Speaker 5: you know the forty nine I'll say this, I mean,

1043
00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:25,439
Speaker 5: what you're gonna witness tomorrow is something that the rest

1044
00:51:25,440 --> 00:51:28,520
Speaker 5: of the league also, you know, has witnessed, which I

1045
00:51:28,560 --> 00:51:30,920
Speaker 5: mean lots of fans in the stadium. The forty nine

1046
00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:34,000
Speaker 5: ers are gonna pack your house. It's gonna be it's

Speaker 5: Four of them are with me.

1051
00:51:42,960 --> 00:51:44,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, but that's quadruple our regular audience.

1052
00:51:44,960 --> 00:51:47,799
Speaker 4: Anyways, the smartest people in this bar are wearing forty

00:51:52,480 --> 00:51:55,279
Speaker 5: pack the house more than they did for Joe more

1056
00:51:55,320 --> 00:51:57,440
Speaker 5: than they did for Steve, more than they did for Kaepernick,

1057
00:51:57,480 --> 00:52:01,840
Speaker 5: more than they did for Hardball. They travel around the country.

1058
00:52:02,040 --> 00:52:05,600
Speaker 5: It's amazing. I mean it really is. Seattle's gonna have

1059
00:52:05,680 --> 00:52:10,360
Speaker 5: some fans at Levi's. The Niners are gonna have thousands

1060
00:52:10,400 --> 00:52:13,920
Speaker 5: of fans They're gonna have. It's gonna feel like a

1061
00:52:14,080 --> 00:52:17,600
Speaker 5: forty Niner home game. This whole twelve's thing is a

1062
00:52:17,640 --> 00:52:18,719
Speaker 5: big facade.

1063
00:52:19,200 --> 00:52:23,040
Speaker 9: That's a yesteryear shots again, that's a yesteryear thing.

1064
00:52:23,200 --> 00:52:27,440
Speaker 5: That's seriously, that's let's get c man. You guys haven't

1065
00:52:27,440 --> 00:52:30,080
Speaker 5: had that kind of fan passion. You guys. The Seahawks

1066
00:52:30,080 --> 00:52:33,520
Speaker 5: are sending out notes to their fans threatening them to

1067
00:52:33,600 --> 00:52:36,920
Speaker 5: take away their season tickets if they sell to Niner fans. Why,

1068
00:52:37,040 --> 00:52:41,440
Speaker 5: because they know Niner fans are coming. Every single flight

1069
00:52:41,800 --> 00:52:46,399
Speaker 5: from the Bay to Seattle booked solid. The Niner fans

1070
00:52:46,400 --> 00:52:48,799
Speaker 5: are gonna descend on this place. Bang bang bang bang.

1071
00:52:49,560 --> 00:52:51,960
Speaker 5: Niner fans are gonna defend descend on this place, and

1072
00:52:52,000 --> 00:52:54,080
Speaker 5: it's gonna be something that you guys have never seen.

1073
00:52:55,880 --> 00:52:58,440
Speaker 6: God it did you hit Kemp's pot shop on the

1074
00:52:58,440 --> 00:52:58,799
Speaker 6: way down?

1075
00:53:00,640 --> 00:53:03,320
Speaker 5: Very cool. What I gonna say is, can't be prepared

1076
00:53:03,360 --> 00:53:05,480
Speaker 5: to lose because you know the bottom line is, I

1077
00:53:05,480 --> 00:53:08,440
Speaker 5: know you guys got a great team on great defense,

1078
00:53:08,760 --> 00:53:12,080
Speaker 5: great defensive team, really good special teams. But you have

1079
00:53:12,239 --> 00:53:15,359
Speaker 5: Sam Donald. And if brock perty played Sam Donald ten

1080
00:53:15,400 --> 00:53:18,040
Speaker 5: times in anything, wow, he beat him nine.

1081
00:53:19,040 --> 00:53:22,080
Speaker 9: I don't mind the arrogance, and I think Softy's comparison

1082
00:53:22,120 --> 00:53:25,319
Speaker 9: of Niner fans to Husky fans is very It's fair

1083
00:53:25,880 --> 00:53:28,280
Speaker 9: because the Niners have been really good the last ten years,

1084
00:53:28,719 --> 00:53:30,279
Speaker 9: just like the Huskies have been really good.

1085
00:53:30,320 --> 00:53:31,880
Speaker 7: Now, you haven't won a Super Bowl. We have won

1086
00:53:31,880 --> 00:53:34,480
Speaker 7: a national championship, got to one, didn't win one. But

1087
00:53:34,480 --> 00:53:36,120
Speaker 7: but there's a reason for arrogance.

1088
00:53:36,440 --> 00:53:39,360
Speaker 9: What I don't understand, and what I was really blown

1089
00:53:39,400 --> 00:53:43,799
Speaker 9: away by was the whining after the last forty nine

1090
00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:44,160
Speaker 9: er game.

1091
00:53:44,239 --> 00:53:45,560
Speaker 7: That's what I didn't get from a.

1092
00:53:45,520 --> 00:53:50,120
Speaker 9: Fan base that I think are really really solid, smart fans.

1093
00:53:50,960 --> 00:53:54,920
Speaker 9: It was like, you missed Joe Montana, Jerry Rice, Roger Craig,

1094
00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:58,400
Speaker 9: Tom Rathman and Dwight Clark two weeks ago, you miss Ricky,

1095
00:53:58,440 --> 00:54:03,040
Speaker 9: Piersoll and Trent Williams, and yet you got dominated on

1096
00:54:03,120 --> 00:54:06,000
Speaker 9: both sides of the ball. Why was the was there

1097
00:54:06,080 --> 00:54:08,480
Speaker 9: so much whining about two guys being out of that

1098
00:54:08,520 --> 00:54:09,239
Speaker 9: football game.

1099
00:54:10,400 --> 00:54:12,840
Speaker 5: I mean, that's a great question. If tomorrow, all of

1100
00:54:12,880 --> 00:54:14,600
Speaker 5: a sudden, you showed up and you didn't have Sam

1101
00:54:14,640 --> 00:54:17,400
Speaker 5: Darnold and JSN and you guys lose to the Niners,

1102
00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:19,480
Speaker 5: would there be people going, we didn't have our.

1103
00:54:19,360 --> 00:54:21,080
Speaker 3: Guys quarterbacks different?

1104
00:54:21,400 --> 00:54:24,120
Speaker 5: I mean, if you talk about their only deep threat

1105
00:54:24,239 --> 00:54:27,040
Speaker 5: and their starting left tackle, who's probably a first ballot

1106
00:54:27,040 --> 00:54:27,640
Speaker 5: Hall of Famer.

1107
00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:29,399
Speaker 7: There's also thirty seven, but.

1108
00:54:29,360 --> 00:54:33,359
Speaker 5: He's playing at a high home. Whoever, the best non

1109
00:54:33,440 --> 00:54:36,360
Speaker 5: quarterbacks are on this team. Take them away back in

1110
00:54:36,400 --> 00:54:41,040
Speaker 5: the day, if you took away Bobby Wagner and Richard Sherman,

1111
00:54:41,320 --> 00:54:44,160
Speaker 5: would it have been significant? Yeah, Now, then make.

1112
00:54:44,120 --> 00:54:46,120
Speaker 9: A difference from like two to one yardage. I mean

1113
00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:47,720
Speaker 9: that was because it was a blowout.

1114
00:54:47,760 --> 00:54:49,080
Speaker 5: It was a close game. I told me to get

1115
00:54:49,080 --> 00:54:51,279
Speaker 5: it once again. The premise, if your premise is wrong,

1116
00:54:51,360 --> 00:54:53,359
Speaker 5: your conclusion is wrong. I don't know that I would

1117
00:54:53,400 --> 00:54:56,160
Speaker 5: agree with that premise. I do radio, I do YouTube,

1118
00:54:56,200 --> 00:54:58,600
Speaker 5: I talk to people all the time. I didn't hear

1119
00:54:58,840 --> 00:55:01,279
Speaker 5: a lot of Niner fans ma excuses. I heard a

1120
00:55:01,280 --> 00:55:04,600
Speaker 5: lot of Hey, they came to town and they kicked our ass. Yeah,

1121
00:55:04,600 --> 00:55:05,239
Speaker 5: I really didn't hear.

1122
00:55:05,920 --> 00:55:08,000
Speaker 4: I'd love to hear what you guys that I heard

1123
00:55:08,320 --> 00:55:10,960
Speaker 4: is about the schedule, right, Like, oh my god, I

1124
00:55:10,960 --> 00:55:13,240
Speaker 4: can't believe we have to play on Saturday. And Shanahan

1125
00:55:13,360 --> 00:55:15,600
Speaker 4: started that immediately after the Eagle game.

1126
00:55:15,880 --> 00:55:17,600
Speaker 6: Well that thought was kind of ridiculous.

1127
00:55:17,920 --> 00:55:20,440
Speaker 4: No, because we played you guys in week eighteen in

1128
00:55:20,480 --> 00:55:22,960
Speaker 4: a short week coming back from Carolina. Dude, I mean

1129
00:55:23,040 --> 00:55:25,360
Speaker 4: that game could have been played on Sunday and McDonald

1130
00:55:25,400 --> 00:55:26,799
Speaker 4: didn't mention about it.

1131
00:55:26,880 --> 00:55:28,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, but I mean, do we want to have our

1132
00:55:29,000 --> 00:55:32,360
Speaker 5: best games? I mean, the Bears and Packers played a

1133
00:55:32,440 --> 00:55:35,919
Speaker 5: day after. You would think that they would put those

1134
00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:38,160
Speaker 5: guys on the Sun on Saturday.

1135
00:55:37,800 --> 00:55:40,759
Speaker 4: Right, I get that, but there's one thing to do

1136
00:55:40,840 --> 00:55:42,960
Speaker 4: it behind closed doors, is one thing to do it

1137
00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:45,600
Speaker 4: in the public eye. Like I remember when Michigan State

1138
00:55:45,680 --> 00:55:47,239
Speaker 4: came here a couple of years ago, melt Tuckers, like

1139
00:55:47,280 --> 00:55:49,200
Speaker 4: we got to fly to seat. Oh my god, they

1140
00:55:49,600 --> 00:55:51,880
Speaker 4: lost and they got a summer. So I thought it

1141
00:55:51,920 --> 00:55:54,560
Speaker 4: was a bad look by Shanahan. Man, bad look by Shanahan.

1142
00:55:54,680 --> 00:55:56,759
Speaker 5: For him, you could produce a quote from him. I

1143
00:55:56,880 --> 00:55:59,440
Speaker 5: was there for the press series, like, hey, look we

1144
00:55:59,600 --> 00:56:00,920
Speaker 5: we would preferred it to be on.

1145
00:56:03,560 --> 00:56:05,920
Speaker 4: The NFL is nice and let's just play on Saturday.

1146
00:56:06,120 --> 00:56:06,879
Speaker 4: Remember that, right?

1147
00:56:06,920 --> 00:56:09,480
Speaker 5: But I mean, but then once the decision came down,

1148
00:56:09,560 --> 00:56:11,120
Speaker 5: he's like, it is what it is, let's go.

1149
00:56:11,440 --> 00:56:13,839
Speaker 4: Well, you didn't hear any of that from McDonald two

1150
00:56:13,880 --> 00:56:15,799
Speaker 4: weeks ago when we went to your place, and that

1151
00:56:15,920 --> 00:56:17,440
Speaker 4: was just speak.

1152
00:56:17,520 --> 00:56:20,480
Speaker 5: No, he doesn't talk at all. He is.

1153
00:56:20,800 --> 00:56:22,839
Speaker 6: All he does is just play great defense and kick

1154
00:56:22,920 --> 00:56:23,320
Speaker 6: your ass.

1155
00:56:23,960 --> 00:56:26,440
Speaker 5: Yeah. Uh, you know, I didn't see. I didn't hear

1156
00:56:26,480 --> 00:56:28,640
Speaker 5: that much complaining. I'll say this, I talked to players.

1157
00:56:28,640 --> 00:56:31,160
Speaker 5: I never heard one player say anything about it. I

1158
00:56:31,200 --> 00:56:33,160
Speaker 5: don't think that's a factor. What's going to be a

1159
00:56:33,200 --> 00:56:38,600
Speaker 5: factor tomorrow is turnovers, uh, Sam Donald, how well the

1160
00:56:38,680 --> 00:56:45,799
Speaker 5: Niners can defend the run, js N all these those

1161
00:56:45,840 --> 00:56:48,319
Speaker 5: are gonna be the big What I'll say this, the

1162
00:56:48,400 --> 00:56:53,000
Speaker 5: Niners respect the hell out of McDonald, out of the Seahawks,

1163
00:56:53,080 --> 00:56:55,360
Speaker 5: out of what they You know, this this defense is

1164
00:56:55,400 --> 00:56:59,480
Speaker 5: really really special, but they respect him.

1165
00:56:59,480 --> 00:57:01,960
Speaker 6: But there's no listen, just do this no matter what

1166
00:57:02,040 --> 00:57:02,840
Speaker 6: happens tomorrow.

1167
00:57:03,080 --> 00:57:05,640
Speaker 4: All right, Monday night, you have me on, all right,

1168
00:57:05,800 --> 00:57:07,640
Speaker 4: you come on with us if you want whatever, win

1169
00:57:07,719 --> 00:57:08,960
Speaker 4: or lose, we'll figure it out.

1170
00:57:09,040 --> 00:57:09,520
Speaker 5: That's the deal.

1171
00:57:09,640 --> 00:57:11,640
Speaker 4: I think you're gonna be eating your words on Saturday

1172
00:57:11,719 --> 00:57:13,040
Speaker 4: night at about eight thirty tomorrow.

1173
00:57:13,040 --> 00:57:13,320
Speaker 5: Baby.

1174
00:57:13,360 --> 00:57:14,720
Speaker 6: By the way, I was gonna buy your dinner.

1175
00:57:14,719 --> 00:57:16,520
Speaker 5: Screw you. You're on your own. Okay.

1176
00:57:16,640 --> 00:57:18,600
Speaker 7: I still don't believe you give all his money.

1177
00:57:18,600 --> 00:57:22,360
Speaker 5: You know what. By the way, he's this guy's loaded,

1178
00:57:22,400 --> 00:57:22,720
Speaker 5: all right.

1179
00:57:22,840 --> 00:57:25,720
Speaker 4: Don't don't don't let the way he dresses scare you

1180
00:57:26,280 --> 00:57:27,120
Speaker 4: or confuse you.

1181
00:57:27,240 --> 00:57:32,800
Speaker 5: He is loaded. Here's the thing, though, one team and

1182
00:57:32,920 --> 00:57:35,960
Speaker 5: one quarterback has been to the Super Bowl, and one

1183
00:57:36,000 --> 00:57:38,240
Speaker 5: head coach has been to the super Bowl. You guys

1184
00:57:38,280 --> 00:57:43,000
Speaker 5: are hoping we've been there. We know where the treasure meant.

1185
00:57:43,120 --> 00:57:44,000
Speaker 5: We have the map.

1186
00:57:44,480 --> 00:57:47,160
Speaker 4: You guys are kind of hoping to kind of figure

1187
00:57:47,200 --> 00:57:49,160
Speaker 4: it out. I just know this, that's the truth. Caleb

1188
00:57:49,160 --> 00:57:52,040
Speaker 4: Williams just beat Jordan Love last week. Ben Johnson just

1189
00:57:52,080 --> 00:57:55,480
Speaker 4: meet beat Matt Lafleur last week. You guys just beat

1190
00:57:55,600 --> 00:57:59,160
Speaker 4: Jalen Hurts last week. So what people have done in

1191
00:57:59,240 --> 00:58:02,160
Speaker 4: years past doesn't mean squat for this game tomorrow.

1192
00:58:02,360 --> 00:58:03,560
Speaker 5: And you know it. That's true.

1193
00:58:03,560 --> 00:58:05,960
Speaker 4: All right, Larry, you're the man. Good to see you,

1194
00:58:05,960 --> 00:58:08,400
Speaker 4: all right, We'll talk soon. Larry, Krueger can be our
