1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,360
Speaker 1: All right, here we go joining us hurt them on

2
00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:06,520
Speaker 1: the air today, but I was left wanting more yet

3
00:00:06,559 --> 00:00:09,720
Speaker 1: again Monday at four o'clock. I want a little more

4
00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:12,479
Speaker 1: at four with our friend here wee.

5
00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:15,160
Speaker 2: I don't listen to you often because you're not interesting.

6
00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:18,439
Speaker 3: Millon, how are you pell? What's happening? Boys? I'm will

7
00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:19,680
Speaker 3: I got a lot.

8
00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:21,800
Speaker 1: Of great drops of yours, by the way, that was

9
00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:23,880
Speaker 1: just so bitching, so many good ones.

10
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:25,040
Speaker 2: I like the bush one.

11
00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:26,040
Speaker 3: You like the bush one?

12
00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:29,960
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I got you that one.

13
00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:32,360
Speaker 3: I gotta find that. No, I'm not going to delete it.

14
00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:35,400
Speaker 1: You know, I'm leading that. I'm in charge here at hell. Okay,

15
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:37,920
Speaker 1: I'm in charge. I have the I have the mic,

16
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:40,960
Speaker 1: you have the con, I have the cod. Well, let's

17
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,320
Speaker 1: talk about yesterday, like we always do. If you from

18
00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:46,760
Speaker 1: thirty five thousand, would you make of the win over Tennessee?

19
00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 2: Well, I think we're just sometimes we're just starved for news.

20
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:53,040
Speaker 2: And the fact is that that wasn't a very newsworthy game.

21
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:56,640
Speaker 2: I mean, you're you're playing, you know, on on the uh.

22
00:00:56,680 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 2: In golf, there's always the easiest hole, the easiest index,

23
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:05,600
Speaker 2: and you played a short part four not particularly particularly difficult,

24
00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:09,680
Speaker 2: you get a part, you get your par and uh,

25
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 2: you stayed healthy. That's what you wanted to do. Was

26
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:16,680
Speaker 2: it the uh Rembrandt artistically?

27
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:16,920
Speaker 4: No?

28
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 2: But was it sufficient?

29
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:20,600
Speaker 3: Was yes?

30
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:25,399
Speaker 2: Did it make you uh excessively nervous at any point? No?

31
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:28,320
Speaker 2: I think they just handled business and and coming off

32
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:32,400
Speaker 2: that ram loss somewhat predictable, Seahawks have been a very

33
00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 2: good team at hammering inferior opponents. They for the most part,

34
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:39,720
Speaker 2: were yesterday they allowed a back door cover. Guess what

35
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,120
Speaker 2: if you have a you know, they're eight and three.

36
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:44,319
Speaker 2: If you what are they on the pace for? Call

37
00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:49,200
Speaker 2: it eleven and six, twelve and five hopefully, uh, you know,

38
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 2: twelve and five of those twelve wins, you know there's

39
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:57,000
Speaker 2: going to be two or three. Uh where you know,

40
00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:00,160
Speaker 2: somebody back door covers you. It's no big deal. So

41
00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 2: I just think that they're exactly where they want to be.

42
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 2: And I think Mike McDonald likes the opportunity, yeah, to

43
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:09,880
Speaker 2: teach some lessons based on a little bit of a

44
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,959
Speaker 2: lack of focus. Somewhere, some poor bastard Dick blew the

45
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 2: kid's college fund and Dick's and he was on the

46
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:17,239
Speaker 2: air saying it's not a big deal, A big deal,

47
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:18,760
Speaker 2: not a big deal whatever.

48
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:21,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was getting divorced, I might go to prison,

49
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:23,520
Speaker 1: my kids never going to college.

50
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,639
Speaker 5: But not a big deal to you, Hugh come oh man, Well,

51
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 5: I mean here it was turning into a rem man.

52
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 5: I mean, it was twenty three to three, and we

53
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 5: thought it's I mean, at some point it could turn

54
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,399
Speaker 5: into forty to ten in that game.

55
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:36,079
Speaker 2: It just didn't.

56
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 5: So how disappointed should we be at all, if at

57
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 5: all about the last twenty minutes of the football game

58
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 5: twenty five minutes of the football game.

59
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:48,520
Speaker 2: Well, the on the punt return numbers one, nineteen, ninety four,

60
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:52,680
Speaker 2: and fifty all got out of position, and so you

61
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 2: know that was kind of I think the blame was divided,

62
00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 2: you know, to give up a ninety yard part return

63
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:02,240
Speaker 2: when the Sea uh went into the game, I believe,

64
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 2: I know when they went in the ram game with

65
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:08,239
Speaker 2: special teams e PA Expected points added were the number

66
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:11,080
Speaker 2: one special teams group in the in the NFL. So

67
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 2: so look at if you're going to keep up a

68
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 2: ninety yard return, don't you want to do it to

69
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,920
Speaker 2: the Titans? Yes, yes, you know, and you know because

70
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 2: that can that can sharpen you up. I mean, if

71
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 2: you look at the goal line stand and the intensity

72
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:28,200
Speaker 2: that the Seahawks defense had against the Rams. That literally,

73
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 2: I'm not even kidding you. When I talked about it

74
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 2: on the radio that Monday, the hair on the back

75
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 2: of my neck was standing up. And if you compare

76
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 2: that against when cam Ward was down at the five

77
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 2: six yard line and he scrambled in for that touchdown,

78
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 2: the difference is just is startling right. And the sea yesterday,

79
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 2: the Seaarks were standing tall, no pad level, no intensity,

80
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:54,440
Speaker 2: no fighting off blocks, and and it was just as

81
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 2: as desparate as you could possibly have a scenario just

82
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,480
Speaker 2: a week apart, but for all the reasons we know

83
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 2: were present in the Ram game and in the Titan game.

84
00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,760
Speaker 2: And it's just it's just reality. It's not in theory.

85
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 2: Sure you would have the insane intensity. Yeah, yeah, you

86
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,520
Speaker 2: know that's not how reality plays out.

87
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 3: Well, humillin's with us.

88
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 2: I'm talking about Bushes. I don't want it to be

89
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:17,640
Speaker 2: about Dad.

90
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:21,600
Speaker 1: I just wanted you to prove to yourself that you

91
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:23,799
Speaker 1: can still have that clip.

92
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:25,920
Speaker 3: All right, maybe I'll get rid of it.

93
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 1: That clip was in regards to the plants and by

94
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,599
Speaker 1: the way, just so you people know, Dick and I

95
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:35,560
Speaker 1: were talking about the red zone offense.

96
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 3: You know, look, I mean first drive.

97
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 1: I know it's not red zone, but you get to

98
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 1: the thirty four, you stall, third drive first and goal

99
00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 1: from the two, and then disaster with the penalties field goal,

100
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:49,000
Speaker 1: fourth drive first and ten from the thirteen go backwards

101
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:49,720
Speaker 1: field goal.

102
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:52,120
Speaker 3: And it's been a little bit of a trend, right.

103
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 1: What were the numbers Dick that you said you had

104
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,240
Speaker 1: the last two or three games for the red zone.

105
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 5: Three games or twenty fourth for the season, they were eleven.

106
00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 5: So ye season been good scoring touchdowns, right, Not in

107
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,360
Speaker 5: the last three last three games. There's a little bit

108
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 5: of a mini trend of settling for field goals that

109
00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 5: I don't like, and I don't want to see it

110
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:10,400
Speaker 5: to see it continue.

111
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:11,360
Speaker 3: What's going on there.

112
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,560
Speaker 2: I couldn't agree more. I think that they've been at

113
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 2: times conservative where you know, they got predictable handing the

114
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 2: ball off on first down and then you know they're

115
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 2: facing because because the defenses up, they're facing you know,

116
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:27,919
Speaker 2: second and eight. I think that was a problem. I

117
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 2: think that they're passing game. They didn't have enough players,

118
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 2: you know, I think when teams are really smoking in

119
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:37,920
Speaker 2: the red zone. You have you know, maybe two, possibly

120
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:42,800
Speaker 2: three players potential touchdowns, and and quarterbacks are taught touchdown checkdown.

121
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:45,600
Speaker 2: But when I look and I say, wait a minute,

122
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:47,719
Speaker 2: there's not even anybody. You're passing the ball but there's

123
00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:49,799
Speaker 2: nobody in the end zone or maybe there's just one

124
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:53,560
Speaker 2: and you know they're carrying through that seam. The safety's

125
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,760
Speaker 2: over the top because there's no other threats vertically. So

126
00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:00,160
Speaker 2: I think some of the scheme was conservative. At think

127
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:03,839
Speaker 2: the play calling on first down was conservative. And then

128
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:09,080
Speaker 2: you know, I thought there was some brilliant execution. Man,

129
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 2: I could talk for ten minutes on that one play

130
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 2: that Jackson Smith caught in the back of the end zone,

131
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:17,400
Speaker 2: but he was only a foot out of bounds. I mean,

132
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:19,720
Speaker 2: you know your balls on the left hash he set

133
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:21,600
Speaker 2: a flood to the left to get Jackson Smith and

134
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:25,680
Speaker 2: Jigba on a quarters coverage, you know, to the white

135
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 2: side of the field. He has a tight split because

136
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 2: of the hash. He nods out, gets the corner leaning

137
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 2: because because of the split, you figure, well he's got

138
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:36,200
Speaker 2: to defend the seven route. What's the seven route? The

139
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:38,480
Speaker 2: corner out the outbreaking round he nods to the seven

140
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:43,679
Speaker 2: back of the end zone. Unbelievable timing by Sam Darnold,

141
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:48,080
Speaker 2: and literally you're talking about the highest, most exquisite level

142
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:51,839
Speaker 2: of precision on that play, but you're, you know, eight

143
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:54,640
Speaker 2: inches out of bounds. So I think, you know, they're close.

144
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 2: I think that, And then the second half when they

145
00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:59,839
Speaker 2: got their touchdown, I think that they are. They're starting

146
00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:01,839
Speaker 2: to get more guys in the back of the end zone.

147
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,279
Speaker 2: I just like opportunities to throw the ball high in

148
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:07,400
Speaker 2: the back of the end zone or at the shoes,

149
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 2: you know, shoe laces at the front of the end zone.

150
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 2: And we saw a little bit more of that. But

151
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:13,560
Speaker 2: I agree with you, it's got to get better.

152
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 3: Here.

153
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,840
Speaker 5: In the first nine games of the season, Knine had

154
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 5: only eleven catches on twelve targets. He has six catches

155
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:25,400
Speaker 5: on seven targets, including his two longest receptions of the

156
00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 5: season in the last two games. Is this a concerted

157
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 5: effort or is this just kind of coincidence that he's

158
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:31,720
Speaker 5: getting open front?

159
00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 2: I hope. So, you know, in all the years, in

160
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 2: my geeky way of looking at football, I have only

161
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 2: seen three statistics that have ever been advanced to be

162
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:45,880
Speaker 2: the highest correlation to winning. One of course is turnovers

163
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:52,160
Speaker 2: right net turnovers, and another one is yards per passe

164
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 2: attempt net yards per passe attempt, and then the other

165
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:57,800
Speaker 2: is net explosive plays. And I would put that actually

166
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 2: in second place behind turnovers net explosive plays. There's all

167
00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 2: kinds of studies that show that that's that's a high

168
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:08,200
Speaker 2: correlation to winning. And so to me, when I look

169
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,920
Speaker 2: at okay, Zach Sarbonnat, now he had a nice run

170
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 2: on that touchdown to get outside. But on the balance,

171
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:19,760
Speaker 2: what I'm looking at Sarbonnet and Kenneth Walker is that

172
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:24,160
Speaker 2: they're both essentially equal. In fact, Walker has a scos

173
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 2: of an advantage in what we would say, just okay,

174
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:31,680
Speaker 2: what's your batting average in terms of what's called success

175
00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:34,600
Speaker 2: Forty percent of the needed yards on first down, sixty

176
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:36,679
Speaker 2: percent of the needed yards on second down, and all

177
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 2: the needed yards on third down. That kind of just like, hey,

178
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:41,599
Speaker 2: are you are you? Are you just keeping ahead of

179
00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:47,319
Speaker 2: the chains? That that's just you know, in ignoring the potency.

180
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 2: But then when you say that the explosive rate for

181
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:55,560
Speaker 2: Knine is so much more you just hand the ball

182
00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:58,600
Speaker 2: and it's like it's just like you know, pulling off

183
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 2: of a a card, a deck of cards. At some

184
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 2: point you're gonna draw an ace, you know, just keep

185
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 2: just keep pulling cards, and he is more like hell,

186
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:10,920
Speaker 2: he's gonna give you, you know, face cards at a

187
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:14,000
Speaker 2: far higher rate than anybody else on the team. And

188
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:16,439
Speaker 2: so yes, Dick hand them the ball on the stretch play.

189
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 2: That's their bread and butter on the running play, and

190
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:22,000
Speaker 2: speed matters on that play. The stretch getting to the

191
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:24,959
Speaker 2: outside when the defense has to flow faster, there's better

192
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:28,960
Speaker 2: cutback lanes. It opens when the defense has to flow

193
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:32,800
Speaker 2: for faster, they it opens up the bootleg around the backside.

194
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:36,160
Speaker 2: I mean, I was in Denver with Alex Gibbs, the

195
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,719
Speaker 2: godfather of the outside zone. And then and then his

196
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,240
Speaker 2: ability on what's called duo where you where you're you're

197
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:44,720
Speaker 2: clumping everybody up. It's a strong side run. Everybody's down blocking,

198
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,680
Speaker 2: but if the middle linebacker steps up, you can bounce

199
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:49,960
Speaker 2: it to the outside. You need speed on that. So

200
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:55,880
Speaker 2: they're two most favored run schemes. Speed matters throwing him

201
00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 2: to the ball and having him check down and sprint

202
00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:00,400
Speaker 2: up the sideline. Speed matters. Now, I I don't like

203
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:03,960
Speaker 2: him running out of bounds when a dog on safety

204
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,199
Speaker 2: comes out of him. I don't want him finishing that play.

205
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:09,080
Speaker 2: That's bugging the hell out of me. But he's the

206
00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 2: most explosive guy to me. Get him the damn ball

207
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 2: in the running game end.

208
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:15,440
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, that well you just talked about if you're

209
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 1: a nitpick. And I would also say, carry the ball

210
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:20,280
Speaker 1: on the right hand, meaning the proper hand. Too many

211
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:22,439
Speaker 1: times he's got the ball in the wrong hand. Krist

212
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 1: and Michael used to do that. Hewitt would drive me

213
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:26,960
Speaker 1: freaking nuts. And so I'd like to see Kenny Walker

214
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 1: clean that up a little bit because it's gonna lead

215
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:30,240
Speaker 1: to a fumble.

216
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 3: It's gonna piss me off. So let's get the ball

217
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 3: on the proper hand.

218
00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:35,600
Speaker 1: But look, dude, I'm looking at Jackson Smith and Jigba

219
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:37,640
Speaker 1: and I gotta be honest with you. Every single week

220
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:41,760
Speaker 1: I'm assuming Clint Kobiak and Mike McDonald expect the team

221
00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 1: to defend him a certain way. And I don't know

222
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,120
Speaker 1: if it's because of the chess game that they're playing

223
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:49,920
Speaker 1: that's getting this guy loose every single weekend.

224
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:53,400
Speaker 3: But this just doesn't stop. It just continues.

225
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 1: Sixty three yard touchdown, fifty six yard catch and run

226
00:10:57,320 --> 00:11:00,720
Speaker 1: by Jackson Smith and Jigba eight catches a bucks sixty seven.

227
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:03,880
Speaker 1: He's projected to go over two thousand yards and he's

228
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:07,480
Speaker 1: got a chance to break Calvin Johnson's record in sixteen games.

229
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:09,600
Speaker 3: When is this gonna stop? Ever?

230
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:13,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a great question. It does concern me because

231
00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:16,600
Speaker 2: eventually one would think that you're gonna hit a roadblock,

232
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 2: but it hasn't materialized yet. But even you know, things

233
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:25,120
Speaker 2: like yesterday's okay, he was an outside receiver on on

234
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 2: plays and they're giving him free access. I don't know

235
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:29,559
Speaker 2: why they don't roll to them. On occasions they did

236
00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:32,280
Speaker 2: roll to them. Hell, there's one time they played cover

237
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:35,880
Speaker 2: two man on everybody, which is a safety on either half,

238
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:38,600
Speaker 2: and then and bump and run with everybody. But then

239
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:41,160
Speaker 2: the guy over JSN he was split to the far left.

240
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:44,559
Speaker 2: He played what's called cloud his zone, and and and

241
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:46,880
Speaker 2: Jason just comes down a five yard in route. There's

242
00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,000
Speaker 2: nobody within ten yards. They bust the coverage. It's like,

243
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:51,320
Speaker 2: if you're gonna bust the coverage, how are you busting

244
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:54,360
Speaker 2: on him. There's another time where he on a slant, Well,

245
00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:56,600
Speaker 2: they did roll the coverage to him. So the one

246
00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:59,960
Speaker 2: play that you have that you can it's not the

247
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,439
Speaker 2: only play, but one of the plays you can beat

248
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:04,920
Speaker 2: that double cover rolled on safety over the top. As

249
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:07,360
Speaker 2: a slant, you start kind of nod to the outside

250
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:10,200
Speaker 2: break back in. As a quarterback, you're looking and you say, well,

251
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:12,720
Speaker 2: I gotta beat the number two defender. Who's the number

252
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 2: two defender count outside in ignoring the safety at that

253
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:19,480
Speaker 2: third level corners number one, the linebackers number two. So

254
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:21,720
Speaker 2: you're you got to hold in with your eyes. Well,

255
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:25,240
Speaker 2: you got Cooper Cup coming at this safety and at

256
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:28,400
Speaker 2: the number two defender. The number two defender is looking

257
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:33,440
Speaker 2: square at Cooper Cup and and and Darnold literally whistles

258
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:36,000
Speaker 2: it right by his head and he's looking at Cooper

259
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 2: Cup inside and it's like, did you guys not get

260
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:41,560
Speaker 2: the game plan? That number eleven is the guy that

261
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:45,080
Speaker 2: gets the ball more than ten. So there's stuff that

262
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 2: I keep seeing this confounding, as I said, the free access.

263
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:51,880
Speaker 2: But they're doing a hell of a job motioning. They're

264
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:55,600
Speaker 2: stacking them on releases. You know that sixty three yarder

265
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 2: they motioned JSN from left to right. He's the number

266
00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:02,640
Speaker 2: three guy, counting outside in and so he has free access.

267
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:06,360
Speaker 2: It's man to man and the safety outside. So you

268
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:09,320
Speaker 2: get the safety. Note that part of it to the

269
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:12,160
Speaker 2: safety sitting there thinking, well, I got because there's only

270
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 2: four man rush, I got a deep safety in the

271
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:16,640
Speaker 2: middle helping me to the inside. I've got a shallow,

272
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 2: low hole safety or lurk handle handling and helping me

273
00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:24,080
Speaker 2: to the inside. So I'll just defend the outside stuff. Well,

274
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:26,760
Speaker 2: now it's a corner, that's an outside breaking route. That's

275
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:30,760
Speaker 2: on you, dude. But Jsn's ball skills are so elite.

276
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:34,000
Speaker 2: With the ball deep in the air, those defenders have

277
00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:36,959
Speaker 2: a hard time tracking that, turning and locating the ball.

278
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:40,800
Speaker 2: That's why they play defense. JSN is at the I

279
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:42,640
Speaker 2: want to say he's as good as I've ever seen.

280
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:46,600
Speaker 2: I probably shouldn't say that. I'm probably just you know,

281
00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:49,880
Speaker 2: a victim of the moment. But dog gone is he

282
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:52,800
Speaker 2: elite and he keeps just finishing on these incredible plays.

283
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 5: Well, how responsible is the quarterback for Jsn's success. What's

284
00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:58,480
Speaker 5: Sam doing that Gino didn't do?

285
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:05,280
Speaker 2: Well? He's throwing the ball down the field and accurate,

286
00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:12,160
Speaker 2: and the catchable rate has gone up, but particularly the

287
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:17,079
Speaker 2: average depth of target. Last year with Gino, you had

288
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:21,560
Speaker 2: JSN at eight point seven yards per average depth of target.

289
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:25,000
Speaker 2: That was seventieth out of eighty nine qualifying receivers. Okay,

290
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:27,840
Speaker 2: seventieth out eighty nine. He goes from eight point seven

291
00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:32,840
Speaker 2: to this year twelve point five. And his catchable air

292
00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 2: yards that's that's not my term, that's in the NFL's

293
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:42,480
Speaker 2: stat portal catchable air yards. Last year, JSN had eight

294
00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:46,560
Speaker 2: hundred and six for the entire season. This year he

295
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:50,040
Speaker 2: already has eight eighty, which is obviously number one in

296
00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 2: the NFL. George Pickens is number two at six thirty three,

297
00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 2: some two hundred and fifty yards behind him. So what's

298
00:14:57,200 --> 00:15:01,000
Speaker 2: happening is they you've got a play caller that is

299
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:04,240
Speaker 2: in a quarterback because it's a joint that decision to

300
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:07,880
Speaker 2: throw the ball deep. When the play comes into the quarterback,

301
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:10,600
Speaker 2: it's like, hey, this is our this is shot, this

302
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:13,200
Speaker 2: is what we want. But the quarterback, it's like, the

303
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:16,480
Speaker 2: defense is going to tell me where to go right, right, right,

304
00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:19,680
Speaker 2: and so. But so the combination of that they're giving

305
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:23,320
Speaker 2: him those opportunities and catchable just means in the judgment

306
00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:27,360
Speaker 2: of those doing the film study is that obviously it's

307
00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:30,840
Speaker 2: a catchable ball, so you're getting a real effort to

308
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,240
Speaker 2: push the ball down the field. You've got a quarterback

309
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:36,280
Speaker 2: who is a sniper right now with his accuracy down

310
00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 2: the field number one in the NFL in the Yardsber

311
00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,600
Speaker 2: attempt number one in the NFL in the Yardsbert completion,

312
00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:44,800
Speaker 2: and JSN with his not just elite but like hyper

313
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:48,880
Speaker 2: elite deep ball skills. All of that is marrying together

314
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:50,480
Speaker 2: to produce these kind of results.

315
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:52,520
Speaker 1: Well, Darnold's got a passer rating of one hundred and

316
00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:55,280
Speaker 1: fifty four point four when targeting Jackson, Smith and Jay

317
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:57,400
Speaker 1: had twenty yards or more down the field.

318
00:15:57,440 --> 00:15:59,240
Speaker 3: That is number one in the NFL.

319
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:02,760
Speaker 1: This number one in the NFL with receivers with fifteen

320
00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:06,440
Speaker 1: targets or more of twenty yards and the average depth

321
00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:08,880
Speaker 1: is like thirty. This is not yak by the way,

322
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:11,280
Speaker 1: This is not him catching the ball and then running

323
00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:14,280
Speaker 1: thirty yards after he catches the ball. This is air yards.

324
00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:16,560
Speaker 1: As you've said, all right here, let's get a break.

325
00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:19,320
Speaker 1: I do want to get one more seahawk topic and

326
00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:23,840
Speaker 1: then get your thoughts on Demon Williams UCLA game. Jed Fish,

327
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 1: how about this up thirty four to seven in the

328
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:29,120
Speaker 1: fourth quarter is going forward on fourth and goal with

329
00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:31,560
Speaker 1: a guy with a knee brace on, and he talked

330
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:33,360
Speaker 1: about that today. Why he did that as well.

331
00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:33,880
Speaker 3: We'll do that.

332
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:36,800
Speaker 1: Get to the Oregon game more at four now at

333
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:42,760
Speaker 1: four to twenty with Hugh next on ninety three three KJRFM.

334
00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:45,320
Speaker 4: From the R and R Foundation Specialist Broadcast Studio. Now

335
00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:48,760
Speaker 4: back to Softy and Dick on your home for the Huskies,

336
00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:52,200
Speaker 4: Kraken and the twelfth Man Sports Radio ninety three point

337
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:54,920
Speaker 4: three kjr FM.

338
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:58,400
Speaker 1: We got to roll through this, unless, of course, Hugh Millin,

339
00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:00,440
Speaker 1: you feel like hanging out with us until five o'clock.

340
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:02,640
Speaker 1: Then we can take all the time we need, baby,

341
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:05,040
Speaker 1: all right, all the time. We need to get comfortable,

342
00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:08,679
Speaker 1: relaxed a little bit here, really dig into all this stuff.

343
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:12,160
Speaker 2: See you got the hands in ten and two. Man,

344
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:13,600
Speaker 2: you're driving this operation.

345
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:15,760
Speaker 3: I think it's a big week. I think it's Oregon

346
00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:16,040
Speaker 3: a week.

347
00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,080
Speaker 1: And if there's ever a week that deserves a little

348
00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:21,080
Speaker 1: bit of extra huge time, it's right now. So we'll

349
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:23,480
Speaker 1: get as many topics soon as we can. But before

350
00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:25,720
Speaker 1: we go to the Huskies and Oregon, let me go

351
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 1: back to the Seahawks for a second. And look, I

352
00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:31,520
Speaker 1: get it that sometimes recovery times don't go as planned,

353
00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:35,200
Speaker 1: people have setbacks, things like that, whatever, But I get

354
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:37,959
Speaker 1: a little frustrated, Hugh, And you tell me if this

355
00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:40,639
Speaker 1: is a fair frustration that Tory Horton, who's having a

356
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:43,960
Speaker 1: great year for a rookie, ends up missing two games

357
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:47,280
Speaker 1: Arizona and LA and then goes on the IR and

358
00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:49,520
Speaker 1: he misses four more games. So what could have been

359
00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:52,679
Speaker 1: a four game absence turns into a six game absence.

360
00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:57,879
Speaker 1: Julian Love misses three games Tampa, Jacksonville and Houston and

361
00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:00,800
Speaker 1: then goes on the IR and he misses or more games.

362
00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:03,719
Speaker 1: So it could have been four turns into seven. And

363
00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:05,960
Speaker 1: this is the second time now this has happened with them,

364
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:09,240
Speaker 1: with Tory Horton. I'm just wondering if there's some breakdown

365
00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:12,680
Speaker 1: somewhere in the process over there that might be able

366
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:15,600
Speaker 1: to avoid these long absences for these guys.

367
00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:19,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, it seems like a mismanagement of the process. Now,

368
00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:22,879
Speaker 2: you know, you could put the injuries in one of

369
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:26,240
Speaker 2: kind of three buckets. One would be like, hey, he

370
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:29,040
Speaker 2: he clearly is out, Like we got to put him

371
00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 2: on IR right now. Like like, he's not gonna be ready,

372
00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:34,240
Speaker 2: and then and then you say like, hey, we're fine,

373
00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:36,480
Speaker 2: no Ir, he's gonna be ready to go in a

374
00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:39,320
Speaker 2: week or two. And then but then there's that gray area.

375
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:43,000
Speaker 2: And then there's a lot of participants in the process.

376
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 2: The player, obviously, team doctors, the coaches are eager. There's

377
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:50,160
Speaker 2: the there's the whole uh you know, tough guy mantra

378
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:53,600
Speaker 2: that that pervades the NFL, and and and you know,

379
00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:56,160
Speaker 2: are you hurt or are you injured? That type of thing,

380
00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:59,200
Speaker 2: and so you're sometimes you're just kind of straddling that

381
00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:02,600
Speaker 2: and and different factions have a different take on it,

382
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:05,880
Speaker 2: and and they just can't arrive at a conclusion. They

383
00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:08,159
Speaker 2: think he's gonna be okay, and then they realize, you

384
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:11,080
Speaker 2: know what, this is not training the way we want.

385
00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:14,640
Speaker 2: You try and be anticipatory put him on ir, realizing

386
00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 2: you're gonna need that roster spot. And you don't always

387
00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:20,240
Speaker 2: look back and say, well, we handled that right. We

388
00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:22,800
Speaker 2: should have seen this a couple of weeks ago. Last

389
00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:25,159
Speaker 2: thing for me on the Hawks, who all is quiet

390
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:25,480
Speaker 2: on the.

391
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 5: Tarik Woolen front lately, which is a good thing when

392
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 5: you're a cornerback. Is that because he's been playing well

393
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:33,560
Speaker 5: or we just haven't seen any big negative plays like

394
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:35,080
Speaker 5: Pi's are getting torched.

395
00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:38,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think he's playing well. Absolutely. If a guy

396
00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:42,120
Speaker 2: just you can look if you can't remember Tarik Woollen's

397
00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:45,280
Speaker 2: name getting called, just look at how many plays he played,

398
00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:47,800
Speaker 2: and then that'll tell you how well he played, right,

399
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:51,560
Speaker 2: Because these are NFL quarterbacks that are you know, they're

400
00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:53,760
Speaker 2: trained to find the pigeon. Not to say that they

401
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:56,840
Speaker 2: always do, but that's what they're paid to do. And

402
00:19:56,920 --> 00:20:01,040
Speaker 2: if they're not finding opportunities against Woo or anybody else,

403
00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:04,119
Speaker 2: you can make an inference that the guy's covering pretty well.

404
00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:07,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, well, Oregon Week Saturday.

405
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:08,920
Speaker 3: To steal a line from the.

406
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:12,840
Speaker 1: Garage, when I say Oregon Week, what does that.

407
00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:13,520
Speaker 4: Mean to you?

408
00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:17,200
Speaker 2: I will just tell you you know what.

409
00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:19,560
Speaker 3: I'm talking about. Don't you just like him?

410
00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:23,119
Speaker 2: I just turned sixty two, if you would, if you

411
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:26,920
Speaker 2: had like an instrument that could measure there's no kind

412
00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:30,199
Speaker 2: of hate and sports hate like I've had in my

413
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:33,199
Speaker 2: life for the Oregon Ducks. I mean, you know, my

414
00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:36,040
Speaker 2: kid isn't playing there anymore, so I just I can

415
00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:40,520
Speaker 2: just remember, you know, the last time I assaulted anybody

416
00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:44,680
Speaker 2: as an adult was in the Eugene airport. Wow, because

417
00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:49,439
Speaker 2: you know an Oregon fan, you know, he apparently couldn't

418
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,000
Speaker 2: realize that if you're going to go up to a

419
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:53,919
Speaker 2: guy and get in a guy who's six foot five

420
00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:55,920
Speaker 2: and two and thirty pounds and get in his face,

421
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,600
Speaker 2: better make sure he's not in an horrible mood. And

422
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:00,520
Speaker 2: so that got miscalculates did Yeah?

423
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:02,680
Speaker 3: Okay, not the finest moment, but.

424
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:06,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah they that That's that's what duck hate reduced

425
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:06,439
Speaker 2: me to.

426
00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:09,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, well, is this team elite?

427
00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:10,960
Speaker 2: Should have spent the night in that we're in the

428
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:11,640
Speaker 2: Eugene jail.

429
00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:19,120
Speaker 1: But how was this person that you assaulted by?

430
00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:22,639
Speaker 2: That was back when I was young enough it didn't matter.

431
00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:24,960
Speaker 3: Okay, gotcha? Gotcha?

432
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 5: Uh, talk to me about this Oregon team, Hugh is

433
00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 5: are they elite good or are they just kinda good

434
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,720
Speaker 5: good like Michigan good from what you've seen from a Missigan.

435
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:35,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think they're elite good. You know you

436
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:38,439
Speaker 2: saw I watched every play of the Indiana game and

437
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:42,520
Speaker 2: I was surprised at how dominant I mean Indiana. Now,

438
00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:46,639
Speaker 2: Signetty has a much different personality than Don James, just

439
00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:50,600
Speaker 2: his you know, just his comportment. But the way his

440
00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:54,000
Speaker 2: teams are on the field. Indiana in that game reminded

441
00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:56,159
Speaker 2: me of of Don James teams in the in the

442
00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:58,280
Speaker 2: in the good years, where where it was just like

443
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:02,320
Speaker 2: a defense that plays together, plays nasty, fights you on

444
00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:07,160
Speaker 2: every freaking blade of grass. You know, don't beat themselves.

445
00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:10,520
Speaker 2: You know, just a toughness and a spirit to them.

446
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:13,320
Speaker 2: And so I really admired that. And they just took

447
00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:16,040
Speaker 2: Dante More just completely out of his game.

448
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:17,040
Speaker 3: I mean, it made him.

449
00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:18,359
Speaker 2: Look like a JV quarterback.

450
00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:19,720
Speaker 3: I couldn't, you know.

451
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:23,480
Speaker 2: The Indiana just bootstomped them. So I don't know, Dick,

452
00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:28,840
Speaker 2: what they are. They obviously look good offensively against sc

453
00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:32,720
Speaker 2: That that touchdown passed on the seam route to that

454
00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:36,719
Speaker 2: tight end eighteen for Oregon. Man, that guy has NFL

455
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:38,960
Speaker 2: stamped all over his body. That was a that as

456
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:40,760
Speaker 2: good a throw as I've seen a long time in

457
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:43,200
Speaker 2: college football. So I think there's some hot and cold

458
00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:45,560
Speaker 2: there with their quarterback and with their team. But we

459
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:48,640
Speaker 2: know they have a relatively high ceiling and let's hope

460
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:49,800
Speaker 2: they don't reach it Saturday.

461
00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:52,359
Speaker 1: Well, Demon Williams. I think we all agree it has

462
00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:54,160
Speaker 1: got to be a star for them to pull this

463
00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:56,119
Speaker 1: thing off. You know, I kind of felt like everything

464
00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 1: started moving for you, dub on that draw a touchdown

465
00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:02,679
Speaker 1: for Demon once Jed kind of unleashed his legs a.

466
00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:03,359
Speaker 3: Little bit more.

467
00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:06,320
Speaker 1: And I don't know, I've been maybe slightly disappointed with

468
00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:08,600
Speaker 1: how much of that part of his game we've seen

469
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:10,560
Speaker 1: this year. I know he's on pace to put up

470
00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:13,240
Speaker 1: some pretty good numbers rushing wise, but I just feel

471
00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:15,080
Speaker 1: like there's more meat on the bones. So for Demon

472
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:17,440
Speaker 1: Williams to take the next step. Last time we saw

473
00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:21,199
Speaker 1: DeMont Williams play against Oregon, his numbers looked okay because

474
00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:23,080
Speaker 1: most of it came when they were getting crushed in

475
00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:25,520
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter. He also got sacked ten times in

476
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:27,720
Speaker 1: that game, by the way, So what's the next step

477
00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:29,480
Speaker 1: for Deman? You think here, well.

478
00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:31,879
Speaker 2: And looking at Demon bear with me, because I think

479
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:34,679
Speaker 2: there's a point to be made here. So what I

480
00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:40,399
Speaker 2: did is I took off the power forward teams in

481
00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:42,840
Speaker 2: conference play only because I don't care how you did

482
00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:46,520
Speaker 2: against UC Davis or Central Michigan or Chattanooga State. So

483
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 2: what I'm about to say involves all Power four teams

484
00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:53,840
Speaker 2: in conference play only, and then they say, okay, ranking

485
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:58,840
Speaker 2: them defensively by points allowed. So Washington, in their eight

486
00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:03,160
Speaker 2: games in the conference, they've played three teams that are

487
00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:07,080
Speaker 2: in the top thirty Ohio State, Michigan, and then Wisconsin's

488
00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:10,440
Speaker 2: twenty eighth, So that puts them in the top thirty defensively. Right.

489
00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:14,960
Speaker 2: The other five, Now this is sixty seven teams. Okay,

490
00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:18,000
Speaker 2: so top thirty out of sixty seven. The other five

491
00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:23,520
Speaker 2: they're below fifty out of sixty seven Illinois, Maryland, Purdue,

492
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:26,760
Speaker 2: UCLA records. So I look, and I say, so we'll

493
00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:28,919
Speaker 2: just call those the easy teams and the difficult teams

494
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:32,639
Speaker 2: based on that, correct And then I took the stats,

495
00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:36,280
Speaker 2: the thirty five forty stats, and I ran the correlation

496
00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:39,480
Speaker 2: to winning from twenty twenty two to twenty twenty five.

497
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:41,000
Speaker 2: So we have a three and a half few almost

498
00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:45,080
Speaker 2: four year sample, so there's no outliers that diffuse. And

499
00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:48,840
Speaker 2: what is the number one now correlation? Just as a reminder,

500
00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:52,000
Speaker 2: we all know this correlation would be like our spent

501
00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:56,119
Speaker 2: studying the night before your midterm should correlate positively with

502
00:24:56,160 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 2: your mid term scores? Are beers? Drunk the night before

503
00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:05,360
Speaker 2: your mid time would have a negative correlation, one would think, right,

504
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:09,480
Speaker 2: so we get that. So there. The highest correlation of

505
00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:13,440
Speaker 2: all the stats is this new stat, new analytics EPA

506
00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:16,600
Speaker 2: Expected points average. I'm not going to go into it.

507
00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:20,520
Speaker 2: Google it. There's a lot of stories, Okay, EPA per dropback.

508
00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:24,880
Speaker 2: The important part of that is it includes scrambles on

509
00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:28,840
Speaker 2: that play. Okay, so it's not just per attempt. So

510
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 2: against the easy teams the five that I mentioned, demand

511
00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:38,639
Speaker 2: has a point five zero EPA per play. That is

512
00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:42,679
Speaker 2: number one in all of power for that's that is

513
00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:47,560
Speaker 2: seventy nine qualifying quarterbacks. He's number one. But against the

514
00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:50,000
Speaker 2: top thirty. Now this is all the other quarterbacks against

515
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:51,800
Speaker 2: the top thirty two. This is not cherry picking. There's

516
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:55,640
Speaker 2: all quarterbacks in the top thirty. Demand falls to negative

517
00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:56,160
Speaker 2: point two.

518
00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:56,480
Speaker 3: Toy one.

519
00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:00,919
Speaker 2: He has a point a point seven one drop He

520
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:06,520
Speaker 2: goes from first to sixty sixth with a. EPA has

521
00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:10,680
Speaker 2: the highest correlation of any stat, six forty two. Passive

522
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:14,160
Speaker 2: pass efficiency also called passer rating. I'll give you one more.

523
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:18,040
Speaker 2: That is the second highest correlating stat. So we know

524
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:22,159
Speaker 2: it means something six to twenty five it's an old relic.

525
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:25,520
Speaker 2: EPA is new. Pass efficiency is old, but it has

526
00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:30,000
Speaker 2: a six to twenty five demon Williams against the the

527
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:32,840
Speaker 2: not top thirty teams, he has one hundred and eighty

528
00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:38,159
Speaker 2: point five pass efficiency, that's number one of all Power

529
00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:42,040
Speaker 2: four quarterbacks. But his passer rating against top thirty is

530
00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:45,119
Speaker 2: one hundred and twelve point four. That's fifty five. So

531
00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:48,960
Speaker 2: in both of those categories, demand Williams is both number

532
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:54,040
Speaker 2: one against the not top thirty and he has literally

533
00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:58,359
Speaker 2: the biggest drop of any quarterback in all Power forward.

534
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:03,120
Speaker 2: Now he's only nineteen ten, eight years old. He's breathtakingly talented.

535
00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:06,280
Speaker 2: I envy his talent. So there's a lot of room

536
00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:08,919
Speaker 2: for this guy to improve. We get it. But if

537
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:12,480
Speaker 2: we're talking about what he needs to do, and here's

538
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:16,399
Speaker 2: the final point on this. I mentioned the correlation, you know,

539
00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:18,840
Speaker 2: yards per tempt as a correlation five ninety nine total

540
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:22,800
Speaker 2: yards per game for sixty four, they're dropping right. Scrambles.

541
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:26,200
Speaker 2: Here's the thing everybody's gonna talk about his scrambles. Scrambles

542
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 2: has only a point one two eight correlation to winning,

543
00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:32,200
Speaker 2: and in fact, against the top thirty defenses, it has

544
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:34,919
Speaker 2: a negative point h two to two. It's basically nothing

545
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:39,760
Speaker 2: of a slightly negative scramble yards point zero four to one.

546
00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:44,040
Speaker 2: So scrambling, because here's what happened. When he scrambled against

547
00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 2: Ohio State six scrambles for twenty yards, it's barely more

548
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:51,040
Speaker 2: than three yards per scramble against Michigan two for ten yards.

549
00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:54,439
Speaker 2: When you go against these really talented teams, they have

550
00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:58,280
Speaker 2: a plan to corral you on the scrambles and they

551
00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:02,399
Speaker 2: have the athletes. So what what what's the takeaway? De

552
00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:04,600
Speaker 2: Mon Williams. He's got he got his up as game

553
00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:07,680
Speaker 2: against the top teams. He's gonna get his opportunity this Saturday.

554
00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:10,800
Speaker 2: And yes, the scrambles and by the way, design runs

555
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:14,040
Speaker 2: Ohio State one for thirteen yards Michigan one for five yards.

556
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:16,920
Speaker 2: They took a lot of stuff away. So yes, he's

557
00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:18,879
Speaker 2: gonna have to use his leg He's never gonna not

558
00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:21,240
Speaker 2: use his legs because his legs are beauty, right right,

559
00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:24,520
Speaker 2: But he's still he's gonna have to make the plays

560
00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:27,920
Speaker 2: from the pocket, and he's gonna have to do with anticipation. Okay,

561
00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:29,080
Speaker 2: he's gonna have to sharp with.

562
00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:31,199
Speaker 1: I gotta cut you off because we're gonna come back

563
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:34,000
Speaker 1: and do one more segment. All right, so okay, stand by,

564
00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:35,959
Speaker 1: we'll come back and wrap it up with Hugh before

Speaker 4: Kraken and the twelfth Man Sports Radio ninety three point

569
00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:52,960
Speaker 4: three kjr FL.

570
00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:54,880
Speaker 1: Let's get into what we got football coming up. A

571
00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:57,280
Speaker 1: few more minutes left with humling a little more. At four,

572
00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:00,000
Speaker 1: we do an hour long version because it's Oregon week.

573
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:03,520
Speaker 1: If they're playing Uh Davis, we would have let the

574
00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:05,360
Speaker 1: guy go an hour ago, man, but it's Oregon, So

575
00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:05,880
Speaker 1: what the hell?

576
00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:07,800
Speaker 3: Hey, Hugh, let me ask you this.

577
00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:11,000
Speaker 1: Jonah Coleman comes in thirty four to seven, twelve fifty

578
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:14,160
Speaker 1: three to go, and they run four straight run plays,

579
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:16,960
Speaker 1: fourth and goal from the one. I asked Jed about

580
00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:18,680
Speaker 1: that today. He said, look, man, you know I wanted

581
00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:22,120
Speaker 1: Jonah to score. I'm not going to shut down the offense.

582
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:24,600
Speaker 1: It kind of reminds me of Buddy Ryan against the Cowboys.

583
00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:27,200
Speaker 1: You know, we like practicing scoring touchdowns, remember that back

584
00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:27,800
Speaker 1: in the eighties.

585
00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:31,040
Speaker 2: Sure, yeah, two, I got a story about that another Well,

586
00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:31,320
Speaker 2: you know.

587
00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:35,760
Speaker 1: What, the the the term shut it down doesn't seem

588
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:39,520
Speaker 1: to exist in Jedfish's vocabulary. We saw it against Wazoo,

589
00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:41,680
Speaker 1: we saw it against UCLA. So my question to you,

590
00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:44,600
Speaker 1: with that big knee brace, can Jonah Coleman be one

591
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:47,280
Speaker 1: hundred percent against Oregon? How much can we expect at

592
00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:49,520
Speaker 1: a number one on Saturday with that bumne Man?

593
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:52,480
Speaker 2: Yeah? Not to my eye, And I think that was

594
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:56,240
Speaker 2: a little bit misguided. I think it's well intentioned to

595
00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:59,840
Speaker 2: Troy and get him some individual athlete accolades obviously get

596
00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:02,600
Speaker 2: in the end zone. But watching that pile up and

597
00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:08,280
Speaker 2: the stress that was likely his knee was enduring, Yeah,

598
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:11,840
Speaker 2: I didn't love that. So obviously love to have Coleman

599
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:14,680
Speaker 2: at his best with that knee brace. I don't know.

600
00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:18,600
Speaker 2: I always I kind of have a prejudice against running

601
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 2: backs with knee braces because I just assume if they're

602
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 2: wearing a knee brace, they're less than one hundred percent

603
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:26,920
Speaker 2: and there's no position. You know, well, that's not true.

604
00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:30,400
Speaker 2: Cornerbacks would need to have their knees, but certainly running

605
00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:33,600
Speaker 2: backs that's vital the knee, and so I think I

606
00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:36,480
Speaker 2: don't know how much less than one hundred percent is

607
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:38,440
Speaker 2: he going to be, But if he's wearing a knee brace,

608
00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:39,560
Speaker 2: I'm gonna assume it's something.

609
00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:43,480
Speaker 5: Got it here from one Fish decision to another. Your

610
00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:46,960
Speaker 5: take on Jed honoring Jacob and news wishes to play

611
00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:49,680
Speaker 5: near his hometown for his last game of the regular

612
00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:51,840
Speaker 5: season before he burns the red shirt instead of doing

613
00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:53,480
Speaker 5: what I mean, I think a lot of Husky fans

614
00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:55,960
Speaker 5: would say what's best for the program and saving him

615
00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:56,960
Speaker 5: for the Oregon game.

616
00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:02,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that there's some team building aspects to

617
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:05,440
Speaker 2: a decision like that. I think that the team is

618
00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:09,160
Speaker 2: always number one, But I think Jed has made it clear, Hey,

619
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:13,240
Speaker 2: I'm gonna try and within our team structure, trying to

620
00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:15,520
Speaker 2: accommodate you guys, try and get you guys stats that

621
00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:20,080
Speaker 2: give you accolades and trophies in postseason and getting drafted

622
00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:21,880
Speaker 2: and all of those things. And so that was just

623
00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:24,760
Speaker 2: a manifestation of it in a way that you know,

624
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:28,320
Speaker 2: you raise a very good point, Dick that against Oregon,

625
00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:32,240
Speaker 2: that that seems like that would have been more needed

626
00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:35,440
Speaker 2: by the team. But yeah, you know, I think that

627
00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:37,280
Speaker 2: on some level it's going to be appreciated in that

628
00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:37,719
Speaker 2: locker room.

629
00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:38,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, no doubt.

630
00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:40,200
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, do you think kind of guys

631
00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:42,800
Speaker 1: that Jed Fish now more than ever is trying to

632
00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:46,440
Speaker 1: make sure that these great players play for him wherever

633
00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:49,000
Speaker 1: he goes, whether it's you, Dub, or whether he's coaching

634
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:51,520
Speaker 1: a different team, Hugh, that those guys are with him

635
00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:52,560
Speaker 1: no matter where he is.

636
00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:58,320
Speaker 2: Well, he can use that on his example list of Hey,

637
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:02,360
Speaker 2: this is how yes, I'll I'll never put your needs,

638
00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:06,160
Speaker 2: you know, overtly above the team, but but where they

639
00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:11,719
Speaker 2: can exist somewhat alongside and you know, maybe diagonally below

640
00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:13,640
Speaker 2: the needs of the team. If that makes any sense

641
00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:16,760
Speaker 2: that visual, Uh, then then I think that Jed's going

642
00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:19,320
Speaker 2: to you know, look for ways to accommodate the team

643
00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:22,640
Speaker 2: and then at the players and then and then that's

644
00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:24,960
Speaker 2: gonna benefit with recruiting and all the rest.

645
00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:26,920
Speaker 1: I just hope we're not watching the game Saturday and

646
00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:29,080
Speaker 1: Noah Winnington is going right up the gut and we're

647
00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:30,800
Speaker 1: looking at each other going, God, it'd be great to

648
00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:33,440
Speaker 1: have Jacob Maneu out there right now playing linebacker, right

649
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:35,800
Speaker 1: so we'll see, all right, hey, Hugh, great stuff, man ever,

650
00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:38,440
Speaker 1: have a good turkey day Thursday, and we're talking about
