Speaker 3: place all look nice and pretty for national TV and

00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:56,920
Speaker 3: all the national media coming into this thing. But we

19
00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,480
Speaker 3: don't get the guys together very often. And I would

20
00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:01,920
Speaker 3: just say that to steal a line from Herb brooks Man.

21
00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:04,360
Speaker 3: Great Moments, call for great radio, and we're about to

22
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:06,640
Speaker 3: do some great radio here because we got Chuck Bow

23
00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:09,600
Speaker 3: joining us on one line, we got Ian Fernest joining

24
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 3: us on the other. And actually, guys, I'm shocked that

25
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:14,039
Speaker 3: Mark James Dick is sitting right here next to.

26
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:14,759
Speaker 1: H Why are you shocked?

27
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:16,479
Speaker 3: Because he should be on a plane to South Beach

28
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:18,720
Speaker 3: getting ready for the Miami game on Monday night. If

29
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:20,760
Speaker 3: he was a real fan, if he was a real

30
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:24,680
Speaker 3: hard hurt Okay, okay, on a plane to South Florida

31
00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 3: getting ready for a game. I am questioning your fan

32
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 3: right now. I have a flight on Sunday morning. Okay, okay,

33
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:31,800
Speaker 3: just number one to four Lauderdale.

34
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 4: But if my ticket's not solidified after the Seahawks forty

35
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:36,520
Speaker 4: nine Ers game on Saturday night, I am not getting

36
00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 4: on that.

37
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,120
Speaker 3: Wow, come on, man, big ten to one salary guy

00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 4: one once in twenty three years lifetime.

41
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:47,960
Speaker 5: Well, I was a little uncomfortable when he he was

42
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:50,000
Speaker 5: telling me that they got the quarterback from Duke.

43
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 1: He started taking his clothes off.

44
00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:54,720
Speaker 6: A little bit uncomfortable already, So that was bad.

45
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 3: Well, Ian and Chuck, you're not missing anything, trust me

46

00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:05,040
Speaker 7: Man?

50
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 3: First of all, thanks for waking up early from your nap. Man,

51
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:08,280
Speaker 3: We appreciate that.

52
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:08,520
Speaker 7: Pal.

53
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 6: After your morning show today, why don't we just go

54
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 6: round the room.

55
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 3: We'll do what Chuck first and you can jump in

56
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 3: after on just the vibe kind of like, what are.

57
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:16,959
Speaker 6: You feeling for this thing tomorrow?

58
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 7: Man?

59
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:21,720
Speaker 3: The Hawks are big favorites by NFL playoff standards, biggest favorite.

60
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:23,520
Speaker 6: On the board by far tomorrow.

61
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:25,959
Speaker 3: Last time these two teams played, the Hawks won the

62
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:30,360
Speaker 3: game by ten, but they physically dominated San Francisco. What's

63
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:33,040
Speaker 3: going through your your morning show brain, buddy, before this

64
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:33,680
Speaker 3: game tomorrow?

65
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:36,000
Speaker 5: Well, first and foremost, I'll say, I'm not at some

66
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,839
Speaker 5: fancy casino right now, but over here at my house

67
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:42,520
Speaker 5: we could play strip poker until you like, so it

68
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 5: is an option for everybody out there to come over.

69
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 1: Yeah.

70
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:47,240
Speaker 6: He was like, Okay, I'll be there.

71
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:55,800
Speaker 1: This it's just Chuck. It's just Chuck. That's a pass, buddy.

72
00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:00,920
Speaker 5: I mean the Sam Darnold News kind of rocked me

73
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 5: and talking to Hugh today where he issued some concerns

74
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:11,080
Speaker 5: over it, some serious concerns over it, that certainly didn't

75
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,519
Speaker 5: make me feel better. I'm sure it's gonna be fine.

76
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 5: I mean, I'm sure I'm gonna go ahead and take

77
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:21,400
Speaker 5: Mike McDonald and Sam Donald on their word that everything's fine.

78
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 1: But going into.

79
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:26,639
Speaker 5: Thursday, before I heard that news, I mean, I just

80
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 5: felt so good about this matchup. I mean, at some

81
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:33,840
Speaker 5: point in the season, you just stopped thinking about what

82
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 5: trick does Kyle Shanahan have up his sleeve, and what

83
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 5: trick does McDonald have up his sleeve? And what trick

84
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 5: do they have up their sleeve sleeve, you know, and

85
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:46,120
Speaker 5: you're trying to figure you know, the x'es and o's

86
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:49,360
Speaker 5: might end up negating themselves, and it just really comes

87
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 5: down to who's got the better players, who's got the

88
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 5: better roster, And through a lot of San Francisco injuries

89
00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:57,400
Speaker 5: this year, it's just hard for me to believe that

90
00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 5: the forty nine ers can beat the Seahawks. Man from man,

91
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 5: I think they've just got an answer for everything as

92
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 5: long as our quarterback is healthy. So I'm feeling confident.

93
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,080
Speaker 5: Maybe that's a scary thing. I went two for five

94
00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:12,120
Speaker 5: straight up this past week in the wildcard round, So

95
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 5: I'm not exactly on a roll picking playoff games right now,

96
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,600
Speaker 5: but I'm feeling very confident. I just think the Seahawks

97
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 5: are gonna hammer them.

98
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 8: Ian cautiously optimistic, and I say that just because it's

99
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 8: the playoffs, Like we all know how it happens every year.

100
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,040
Speaker 8: There's gonna be stuff that happens that no one expects, right,

101
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:32,240
Speaker 8: that you don't see coming, you don't script it. We've

102
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 8: all talked about this game for the last five days

103
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:39,040
Speaker 8: at nauseum, like we've every show on our station, every

104
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:41,039
Speaker 8: host on our station, every guest on our station has

105
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:44,039
Speaker 8: broken it down, and we've done that using what logic,

106
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 8: stats notes, what we've seen, all those things we've done

107
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:50,000
Speaker 8: all that it doesn't matter tomorrow, because something will happen,

108
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:52,280
Speaker 8: Like there will be something that happens that no one

109
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 8: could script out, and we're gonna say, oh.

110
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 1: My god, like I didn't see that coming.

111
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,360
Speaker 8: And hopefully whatever that is, it's good, Like it's really

112
00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:02,280
Speaker 8: good for Sea and I think it will. That's why

113
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:05,880
Speaker 8: I say I'm cautiously optimistic. But the Donald thing's interesting.

114
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,159
Speaker 8: I wonder what kind of games we're playing here. To

115
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,760
Speaker 8: be honest with you, I really do the whole Fred

116
00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:14,680
Speaker 8: Warner's gonna play all week. Fred's gonna play, well boy,

117
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 8: you know. Then now Sam's got an injury, and if

118
00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:19,679
Speaker 8: you're San Francisco, like, well, you know what, they're probably

119
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 8: going to brock Purty going what does that mean? Like

120
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:23,839
Speaker 8: like if you have that, well, you can't drive the

121
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:26,039
Speaker 8: ball down the field. Maybe it takes away this or

122
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:29,039
Speaker 8: there's nothing there. He felt like a little zip on

123
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:32,160
Speaker 8: his you know whatever happened and immediately goes inside. And

124
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:33,919
Speaker 8: because of the way the NFL works these days, you

125
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:36,280
Speaker 8: can't you don't have a probable designation anymore. So now

126
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,920
Speaker 8: he's questionable, and so now there's these little mind games

127
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 8: going on.

128
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:43,040
Speaker 1: I hope and trust that he's fine and is not limited.

129
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:43,719
Speaker 1: I think that's the.

130
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:45,599
Speaker 8: Biggest concern, is that he would be limited to what

131
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:50,719
Speaker 8: he can do. But cautiously optimistic, knowing full well, especially

132
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,920
Speaker 8: using Seahawk history for example, and all the playoff games

133
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:56,839
Speaker 8: we've all watched over the years, something goofy's gonna happen.

134
00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:58,080
Speaker 1: I just hope it's for the right guys.

135
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:01,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, the question isn't does he play he's gonna start? Yes,

136
00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 3: how much does it bother him?

137
00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:04,040
Speaker 7: Right?

138
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:05,400
Speaker 6: Exactly? That's the question.

139
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:06,599
Speaker 1: No, that's right.

140
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:09,160
Speaker 5: And I don't worry about him being effective. What I

141
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,480
Speaker 5: do worry about is is there a play? Is there

142
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:14,039
Speaker 5: a play that he's rolling out right, he's got to

143
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:15,719
Speaker 5: throw back to his left and all of a sudden

144
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:17,840
Speaker 5: there's a knife in his side right, and and then

145
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:19,599
Speaker 5: that affects him for the rest of the game. But

146
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 5: you know, my overall feeling for this game, I've got

147
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:25,359
Speaker 5: a lot of respect for teams that have legacy and pedigree,

148
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:27,960
Speaker 5: and we're facing a team that has legacy and pedigree

149
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:31,839
Speaker 5: and an NFC championship coach, multiple time NFC Championship coach,

150
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:35,000
Speaker 5: and Kyle Shanahan Brock Purty. Hey, I don't love brock

151
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:37,159
Speaker 5: Purty as a quarterback, but you know what, he's a dog.

152
00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 1: I gotta give him that. Yeah, he's a dog.

153
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 5: And if we were facing the Carolina Panthers in this game,

154
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 5: I would have zero worry, like zero worry, even though

155
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 5: they played well against the Rams last week. But since

156
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:52,760
Speaker 5: we're playing a team that's got pride, got pedigree, got

157
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:54,840
Speaker 5: a lot of players on that team that have played

158
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 5: in Super Bowls played in playoff games. I do think

159
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:00,640
Speaker 5: it's not nearly going to be as easy as.

160
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 1: It was two weeks ago. But I still think the Seahawks.

161
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,159
Speaker 3: Wan So Mark is with us obviously here from the

162
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:08,480
Speaker 3: beer hall Occidental Beer Hall, and we play a little

163
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:10,440
Speaker 3: game Mark on the air called you can only have one,

164
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:13,040
Speaker 3: where I give you two propositions. You got to pick one.

165
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:14,800
Speaker 3: You can't have both, all right, So here we go.

166
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:17,280
Speaker 3: A win Saturday for the Seahawks or a win Monday

167
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:17,760
Speaker 3: for Miami.

168
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:19,680
Speaker 1: That's I can have both.

169
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 6: Okay, I'm not answering that question. I can't have both.

170
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:26,320
Speaker 6: I'm not answering that. I'm in charge. Here, answer the

171
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 6: damn you already know the answer to the question. I believe,

172
00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:31,640
Speaker 6: I believe the fifth. The answer is yes. The answer

173
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:33,480
Speaker 6: is yes. The answer is yes.

174
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 4: So but listen, they haven't won a playoff game at

175
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 4: home in nine years, basically Detroit, Matthew Stafford that game,

176
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 4: Thomas Rawls. Yeah, so you're going way back. But I

177
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:44,960
Speaker 4: haven't been at this stadium for a playoff game. What

178
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:48,440
Speaker 4: I just got to ask you, softy, dick Ian, Chuck Jackson,

179
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:52,080
Speaker 4: what is this place like I'll tell you like tell

180
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:53,080
Speaker 4: me in a word.

181
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:55,800
Speaker 6: It's simple. Some people put can you hear me right now? Loud?

182
00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 6: And you won't hear me on Saturday night. That's how

183
00:07:58,320 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 6: loud it be.

184
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:00,240
Speaker 1: Were you there at the Rams game?

185
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 7: Yeah?

186
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:04,640
Speaker 5: Yes, that was as close to a playoff game as

187
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:05,800
Speaker 5: we've had in quite a while.

188
00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:08,800
Speaker 6: Your ears will that was That was good vibe.

189
00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 3: You know how some parents like to put headphones on

190
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 3: their little babies in the game.

191
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,000
Speaker 6: You might want to do that for the game on Saturday.

192
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:16,560
Speaker 3: And this is your If you're breaking your cherry tomorrow

193
00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 3: night at bloom And Field, you may want to put

194
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 3: some headphones on.

195
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 6: Pop. I have a station obligation a muckleshoot at Galaxy, so.

196
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 4: Actually won't be there, but I just want to I

197
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:27,160
Speaker 4: want to know, and I mean listen.

198
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:28,880
Speaker 1: You might want to put socks on your hands too,

199
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:34,600
Speaker 1: but listen.

200
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,760
Speaker 4: It's it's interesting that the season started with the forty

201
00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:40,080
Speaker 4: nine ers coming into town. If you look at and

202
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:42,240
Speaker 4: you don't even break it down by division, the top

203
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 4: three teams in the in the NFC where the Seahawks,

204
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:49,199
Speaker 4: I record, Seahawks Rams forty nine ers, So now here

205
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:52,120
Speaker 4: come the forty nine ers. They persevere through all this adversity,

206
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:54,760
Speaker 4: all these injuries. George Kittle's done for the next year,

207
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 4: asked Jason Tatum, what it's like to tearing achilles, And

208
00:08:57,559 --> 00:08:58,720
Speaker 4: yet here they are.

209
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:02,080
Speaker 6: So my question is this, like how are they here?

210
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,160
Speaker 4: Like how did they get by the defending Super Bowl

211
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:08,959
Speaker 4: champions last week on the road, Like it'st a team

212
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 4: that went right through at your Super Bowl watch party

213
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:13,480
Speaker 4: at EQC last.

214
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:15,439
Speaker 3: Year they went through Kansas City with Kansas City was

215
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,200
Speaker 3: on the verge of a three pet Well, I would

216
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:19,320
Speaker 3: say Philadelphia is not nearly as good. They've been kind

217
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,600
Speaker 3: of a mess all year long, obviously, But Chuck, I

218
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 3: just think for like what Dick said for San Francisco,

219
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:26,040
Speaker 3: I mean, we were kind of getting nervous looking at

220
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:28,240
Speaker 3: their schedule in the month of December, that hey, this

221
00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:30,679
Speaker 3: might be a problem, like they might be there, and

222
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 3: they were there, and then, like you said, Heian, weird

223
00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:36,640
Speaker 3: things happened. But weird things did happen, Chuck. In Week eighteen,

224
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,880
Speaker 3: because Christian McCaffrey dropped the pass that got picked off

225
00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:43,000
Speaker 3: by Drake Thomas. What she never does, Jason Myers misses

226
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,720
Speaker 3: two field goals. Chuck and then Sam Darnold just goes

227
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,280
Speaker 3: blind on first down and misses a wide open Zach

228
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,000
Speaker 3: Sharperney for an easy touchdown.

229
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:52,800
Speaker 6: So there's your weird stuff. We've already had weird stuff.

230
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:57,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, and look, I mean, I give San Francisco all

231
00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:57,800
Speaker 5: the credit in the world.

232
00:09:57,880 --> 00:09:59,760
Speaker 1: I'd pick Kyle Shanahan for Coach of the Year.

233
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,320
Speaker 5: I realize how good he is, I realize how tough

234
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:05,680
Speaker 5: they are, I realize how resilient they've been this season.

235
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:08,440
Speaker 5: But I just feel like the Seahawks have an answer

236
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:11,439
Speaker 5: for everything. Let's use McCaffrey as an example. I mean,

237
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:13,720
Speaker 5: he has not really been that effective on the ground

238
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:15,679
Speaker 5: this year. I think he's averaging under three and a

239
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:17,880
Speaker 5: half yards per carry, which is one of the worst

240
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,839
Speaker 5: marks of any starter in the National Football League. Where

241
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,720
Speaker 5: he really kills you now is in the passing game,

242
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,720
Speaker 5: more so in the running game. Well, number one Seahawks

243
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:29,720
Speaker 5: have the best run defense in the National Football League.

244
00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 5: So that feels pretty good for me if I'm rooting

245
00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:33,239
Speaker 5: for the Seahawks.

246
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:35,120
Speaker 1: And then this Nick Emon worry.

247
00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:39,720
Speaker 5: I feel as a professional Christian McCaffrey snuffer outer. I mean,

248
00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:43,719
Speaker 5: it's like the ideal guy to have with Christian McCaffrey

249
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:45,960
Speaker 5: on the field trying to catch balls out of the backfield.

250
00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:49,960
Speaker 1: Philadelphia doesn't have an emon worry. And then I just feel.

251
00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:53,079
Speaker 5: That, you know, they've got thirteen personnel, which is something

252
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:56,880
Speaker 5: they've been thriving with here toward the last part of

253
00:10:56,920 --> 00:11:00,720
Speaker 5: the regular season. Well, thirteen personnel's three tied on the field,

254
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:03,079
Speaker 5: and your number one tight end is out of the game.

255
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:06,400
Speaker 5: He's not playing at all, so everybody else gets moved

256
00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,720
Speaker 5: up the chain. And yeah, Tungas made a nice catch

257
00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:10,200
Speaker 5: against this.

258
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:13,840
Speaker 1: Tungus, but it's a rekwall and miss jump.

259
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:17,160
Speaker 5: Otherwise, you win that first game of the season, and

260
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:20,160
Speaker 5: they're a far inferior roster now than they were the

261
00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:21,559
Speaker 5: time you faced them the first.

262
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,320
Speaker 3: Every time you say Tungus, I just think of that

263
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:27,600
Speaker 3: ampm commercial Ta Tungas like touchdowns. But you're your point,

264
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,199
Speaker 3: and Ian, back to what you said earlier today, entered

265
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,960
Speaker 3: Greg Cosell with you. That says the Seahawks defense, there's

266
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:36,360
Speaker 3: no obvious weakness there that the Niners can take advantage of.

267
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:40,120
Speaker 3: He did mention the Niners being a piss poor pass rush,

268
00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:43,480
Speaker 3: and he's right. I mean, they have twenty sacks on

269
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:46,600
Speaker 3: the year, the Seahawks have forty seven, more than double

270
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:50,560
Speaker 3: what San Francisco's got. Boss out warners out obviously, but

271
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 3: why why will things that he and the Hawks on

272
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:56,040
Speaker 3: the wall for thirty eight minutes in that game, they

273
00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 3: had three drives that yielded no points because of two

274
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,400
Speaker 3: missfield goals and that first down debacle, and they took

275
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:02,720
Speaker 3: a third of the game off the clock.

276
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean, I think the only thing is is

277
00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:06,880
Speaker 8: that you know, no matter who we talk to you

278
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:08,520
Speaker 8: this week, everyone's kind of and we all know this.

279
00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 1: We've all covered enough games over the years.

280
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,800
Speaker 8: No games the same, right, like, no games the same,

281
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:14,719
Speaker 8: and things will be different, and it'll be different. I

282
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:16,400
Speaker 8: mean they've been I'm sitting here at the casino. I've

283
00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:19,480
Speaker 8: watched They've replayed both San Francisco Seattle games this year

284
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:21,839
Speaker 8: on the NFL network today and you know, now I'm

285
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:24,320
Speaker 8: watching Rams Bears and all these games are different. You know,

286
00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:27,160
Speaker 8: players are hurt, same guys aren't there. If I could

287
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:29,160
Speaker 8: just go back for a second, because because you guys

288
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:31,079
Speaker 8: brought up the crowd, and you know, Dick, you and

289
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 8: Softy are season ticket holders. You guys have been to

290
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 8: probably pretty much every game for the last I don't

291
00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:37,920
Speaker 8: know how many years, two decades or something plus, right,

292
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:40,199
Speaker 8: and I'm pushing forty years.

293
00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:42,439
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, I don't want to date all of us.

294
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:43,640
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm the old guy here.

295
00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:47,000
Speaker 8: But but listen, I think, you know, a year and

296
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 8: a half, two years ago, we were talking about what

297
00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:52,640
Speaker 8: happened to Lumanfield, right, and what happened to that? And

298
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,360
Speaker 8: the only reason I feel a little different this year

299
00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 8: than maybe you know, the last couple of times in

300
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:01,200
Speaker 8: thirteen and fourteen when they had home field advantages, it

301
00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:05,959
Speaker 8: felt like Seattle was invincible in that stadium, absolutely invincible

302
00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,920
Speaker 8: in that stadium. And obviously that hasn't been the case

303
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:10,920
Speaker 8: the last few years, even this year, you know, losing

304
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:13,800
Speaker 8: to you know, losing to Tampa Bay and so forth.

305
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:17,640
Speaker 8: But to answer the question, I think what Softie says, right,

306
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:20,720
Speaker 8: I think tomorrow it's the return of what Lumenfield is

307
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,920
Speaker 8: can be. And I think it's I think it's gonna

308
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,839
Speaker 8: be something I've been lucky and Dave and Dick, you

309
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:28,040
Speaker 8: guys have been to a lot of stadiums with the

310
00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:31,440
Speaker 8: Seahawks over the years too. I tell this, there is

311
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:35,560
Speaker 8: no place, no place when it's really going and that

312
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:38,360
Speaker 8: includes stupid arrowhead and I've been there five times, that

313
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:41,560
Speaker 8: includes that dump. I'm telling there is no place like

314
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:45,520
Speaker 8: Lumenfield and that makes a difference. That makes a difference

315
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:47,960
Speaker 8: for the for the for the team.

316
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:49,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, well in the sacks have to adjust to that.

317
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:53,840
Speaker 5: They've said themselves that it's hard for their defense to communicate.

318
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:54,520
Speaker 1: It was it.

319
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 5: It never seemed to be hard for the lob, but

320
00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:59,679
Speaker 5: for this defense, they have not shown the consistent of

321
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 5: bill to communicate in that environment.

322
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:03,280
Speaker 1: So hopefully that'll change.

323
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:06,200
Speaker 5: What I want to if I were a Niner fan,

324
00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:09,360
Speaker 5: what I would want to see is a completely different

325
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:13,240
Speaker 5: game plan by Robert sla I did not understand the

326
00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:17,640
Speaker 5: two deep safeties and say we're just gonna let ken

327
00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 5: Walker and Sharboney have five to eight yards of carry

328
00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:23,840
Speaker 5: every time they touched the ball. They have got to

329
00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,200
Speaker 5: bring a safety up. They have got to stop that run,

330
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:27,400
Speaker 5: and they have got.

331
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:29,480
Speaker 1: To make Sam Darnold beat them. They didn't do that.

332
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:33,000
Speaker 1: All have one good corner, So the right.

333
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 9: Way, by the way, talking about trash right, not this week. No, Now,

334
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:39,120
Speaker 9: that's the thing last time. That's the thing I heard

335
00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:42,320
Speaker 9: I heard this week talking about Lenora this morning. I'm like,

336
00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:45,040
Speaker 9: you know, that's a good point. He hasn't been at all.

337
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:47,800
Speaker 6: Imagine how that worked out. He's closing his mouth this week.

338
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:49,720
Speaker 3: Well, first of all, the whole thing about following Jay

339
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:52,400
Speaker 3: Sam was dumb because they never do that. He's literally

340
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:54,680
Speaker 3: barking about wanting to do something he knows as coach

341
00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:56,920
Speaker 3: will never let him do. But Mark Im, I'm just

342
00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:59,280
Speaker 3: kind of trying to figure out why I should not

343
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:02,400
Speaker 3: feel confident, right, I mean, the obvious stuff is Donald's injury,

344
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:05,680
Speaker 3: Like anybody can say that, turnovers inside the red zone,

345
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:10,000
Speaker 3: your own end, whatever, anybody can say that, guys get hurt. Okay,

346
00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:13,200
Speaker 3: that's not why we're here. Why should I not feel confident?

347
00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:16,000
Speaker 3: If if we're in a debate class. Yeah, and I'm

348
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:18,840
Speaker 3: mister negative, and I'm charging you, mister negativity.

349
00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:20,280
Speaker 6: Negative, Ned, I am.

350
00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:23,520
Speaker 3: Your your job is to debate why the Niners will

351
00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:24,640
Speaker 3: win this game tomorrow.

352
00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:25,520
Speaker 6: What would you say?

353
00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 4: Well, that's they're gonna have to make Sam Donald turn

354
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:29,160
Speaker 4: the ball over two times or more.

355
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:29,720
Speaker 6: That's it.

356
00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:31,360
Speaker 4: That's what they're gonna have to do, and they're gonna

357
00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:33,680
Speaker 4: have to capitalize on those turnovers, and then they're gonna have.

358
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:36,640
Speaker 1: To stop Charbonnet and Walker who tore them up.

359
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:39,800
Speaker 4: This team had one hundred and seventy three total yards

360
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:43,480
Speaker 4: thirteen nights ago, one hundred and seventy thrushing right, No,

361
00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:47,400
Speaker 4: nine total yards of offense. Yes, and Christian McCaffrey only

362
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:50,560
Speaker 4: had twenty three yards rushing. So I mean, I'd like

363
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 4: to sit here and make a compelling point. The only way,

364
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,600
Speaker 4: the only way the Seahawks lose this game is by

365
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:59,240
Speaker 4: beating themselves. Okay, that's turning the ball over. And because

366
00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:02,320
Speaker 4: there's no way that this team, I don't care injuries

367
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:06,000
Speaker 4: are not They're an inferior team. And let's not Can

368
00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:10,000
Speaker 4: I just say this again, Mike McDonald owns Kyle Shanahan.

369
00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:12,560
Speaker 4: He did it when he was a defensive coordinat at Baltimore.

370
00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:15,880
Speaker 4: They went to Santa Clara thirty three thirteen. They picked

371
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:18,640
Speaker 4: him off five times, four picks by Brock Berdy and

372
00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:23,400
Speaker 4: one by Sam Darnold. Yeah, so Mike McDonald has become

373
00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:25,040
Speaker 4: Kyle Shanahan's crypton.

374
00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,480
Speaker 3: Well, Chuck Mark just said he'd like to make a

375
00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:31,840
Speaker 3: compelling point about this game tomorrow. Make one for San Francisco.

376
00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,880
Speaker 3: Besides the obvious which is turnovers and things like that.

377
00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:38,600
Speaker 3: If I'm making you responsible for arguing why the Niners

378
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:39,720
Speaker 3: would win, what would you say?

379
00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:45,240
Speaker 5: I think it's just how crazy football can work sometimes.

380
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:47,560
Speaker 1: That's the chance that I give them.

381
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:50,600
Speaker 5: I mean, let's face it, the Seahawks absolutely dominated them

382
00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:54,400
Speaker 5: in week number eighteen, and as you mentioned earlier, McCaffrey

383
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:56,920
Speaker 5: catches that ball instead of it bouncing off of him.

384
00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 5: If Mafey doesn't tip it, that's how that play started.

385
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:02,520
Speaker 5: Ma Fey tips it. If he doesn't tip it and

386
00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:06,080
Speaker 5: throw it off, McCaffrey catches it. Ifcaffrey catches it somehow,

387
00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:09,320
Speaker 5: San Francisco pushes it in a game you dominated and

388
00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:11,800
Speaker 5: the forty nine ers are sitting there within three points

389
00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:15,679
Speaker 5: in the fourth quarter. Football can be crazy sometimes, and

390
00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:19,160
Speaker 5: so if the Seahawks allow them to linger, if they

391
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:23,119
Speaker 5: if Jason Myers misses a couple of kicks again, then yeah,

392
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:25,879
Speaker 5: you give them a puncher's chance in the fourth quarter.

393
00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:28,360
Speaker 1: They can pull it off. I'm not saying that they

394
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:29,359
Speaker 1: can't pull it off.

395
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:34,040
Speaker 5: It just if I'm just here to predict who's gonna

396
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:36,639
Speaker 5: win this football game. I mean, it just feels to

397
00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:39,440
Speaker 5: me like the Seahawks have just more of the Jimmies

398
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:42,120
Speaker 5: than Joe's. They're just a team that's at least ten

399
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:45,960
Speaker 5: points better than this team on paper right now. But yeah,

400
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:48,120
Speaker 5: there's certainly a way you can lose it. I mean,

401
00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:52,560
Speaker 5: if you don't play sharp and if you turn the

402
00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:54,959
Speaker 5: ball over and the wrong part of the field, then

403
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:57,920
Speaker 5: you'll lose the football game. Guys, if I'm a Niners fan,

404
00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:01,879
Speaker 5: I'm resting my hopes on three Kyle Shanahan, Brock Purty

405
00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:02,840
Speaker 5: and Christian McCaffrey.

406
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:04,200
Speaker 1: You have the advantage at running back.

407
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:06,400
Speaker 5: You have a head coach that has been to four

408
00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:08,920
Speaker 5: NFC Championship games, which is mean, which means he has

409
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:12,520
Speaker 5: won this game right four times in his career against

410
00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:14,919
Speaker 5: a coach that has never won a playoff game. And

411
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,640
Speaker 5: you've got a quarterback that's five and two and has

412
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:20,440
Speaker 5: beaten the Seahawks in the playoffs before against a quarterback

413
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:23,240
Speaker 5: that has never won a playoff game. If I'm a

414
00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:25,200
Speaker 5: Niner fan, that's what I'm banking this.

415
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:27,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, And you know it's funny because you think a

416
00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:30,119
Speaker 3: McDonald like that he's thirty eight, but got it, I mean,

417
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:32,439
Speaker 3: he doesn't feel like he's thirty eight.

418
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:33,480
Speaker 6: The guy feels like.

419
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:35,400
Speaker 3: He knows what he's doing, that he should be here,

420
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:38,040
Speaker 3: that he's been here before. But it's come back and

421
00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:41,080
Speaker 3: talk more about tomorrow. Guys, how we think this thing

422
00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:43,160
Speaker 3: is gonna go? I mean, Ian, you mentioned that these

423
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:45,440
Speaker 3: games are always different. Well, in the last three games,

424
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:48,840
Speaker 3: the Hawks and Niners have played thirty total points, sixteen

425
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:51,119
Speaker 3: total points, and thirty seven total points. They've all been

426
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:54,840
Speaker 3: low scoring games for three consecutive games going back the

427
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:56,520
Speaker 3: last three. They had a game that was a higher

428
00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:59,480
Speaker 3: scoring game the first game two years ago, but the

429
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:02,080
Speaker 3: last three we have all been fairly low scoring games.

430
00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:04,840
Speaker 3: So why do we think tomorrow maybe different? Or maybe

431
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:08,359
Speaker 3: it won't be different? Next on ninety three three KJRFM.

438
00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:32,800
Speaker 6: This is only a one score game. Quick run out

439
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 6: to Kenneth Walker, junning wide right.

440
00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:38,000
Speaker 5: Thirty thirty five, Blank's at tackle, spins out for the

441
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:38,640
Speaker 5: first down.

442
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:42,719
Speaker 6: He converts up third and seventeen forty nine.

443
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:45,800
Speaker 3: Ers get out leverage and linebackers get blown up.

444
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 1: Tatum Bethune very very late.

445
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:52,320
Speaker 6: That is an absolute killer, you know what. I gotta

446
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:52,879
Speaker 6: be honest with you.

447
00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 3: We're here from the Occidental Hall across from loomen Field,

451
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:07,760
Speaker 3: those guys. I was kind of hoping for a little

452
00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:10,560
Speaker 3: more discuss from Greg Papa on that on that third

453
00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:11,360
Speaker 3: and seventeen call.

454
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,280

00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:17,240
Speaker 3: But Ian Furness with us, Chuck Paladick, Fain, Mark James

463
00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:36,240
Speaker 3: off here? Chuck, you can jump on after the running

464
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 3: game for the Seahawks. Man the last three games has

465
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:42,000
Speaker 3: just been unbelievable. One hundred and seventy one, one hundred

466
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:44,439
Speaker 3: and sixty three, one hundred and eighty all three of

467
00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:48,040
Speaker 3: them are season highs. Do you feel comfortable saying they

468
00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:50,080
Speaker 3: can continue that dominance tomorrow?

469
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:52,280
Speaker 6: Ah?

470
00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:55,920
Speaker 8: Comfortable. I'm not comfortable if anything in the playoffs. I'll

471
00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:58,920
Speaker 8: be honest with you. Comfortable is a really strong word,

472
00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:03,120
Speaker 8: softy like comfortable to no. I think that's what they're

473
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:07,120
Speaker 8: gonna definitely try to do. And you know this, this.

474
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:08,680
Speaker 1: San Francisco defense isn't good.

475
00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:10,600
Speaker 8: That's what kind of is weird about the fact that

476
00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:13,040
Speaker 8: they only they didn't do much in terms of scoring

477
00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:14,960
Speaker 8: in that game a couple of weeks ago.

478
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 1: I mean, I know we all.

479
00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:18,399
Speaker 8: Love Robert Sala jumping around his bald ass head on

480
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,080
Speaker 8: the sideline and all that stuff, But you know what, dude, like,

481
00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:23,919
Speaker 8: you don't have the personnel. You don't have the guys.

482
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:26,040
Speaker 8: You don't have the dudes. You can scheme up all

483
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:28,880
Speaker 8: you want, No Jimmy's and Joe's they should be able

484
00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:31,440
Speaker 8: to run against these guys. Maybe Anthony Bradford won't miss

485
00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:33,080
Speaker 8: an assignment and make a block at some point, and

486
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:35,280
Speaker 8: they'll be really good running the ball, but I don't

487
00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:38,360
Speaker 8: know they're gonna want to do that, especially if there

488
00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:42,320
Speaker 8: is any thought whatsoever that Donald is not one hundred percent.

489
00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:43,840
Speaker 8: You know, I was thinking back with the Donald stuff,

490
00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:47,400
Speaker 8: and you know, three of us on this are golfers,

491
00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:50,400
Speaker 8: and we're certainly not high level athletes.

492
00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:53,480
Speaker 1: I guess Faine would be the quo for yourself. Yeah,

493
00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:56,480
Speaker 1: but dude, I'm fifty one. I am no longer a highlight.

494
00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:58,840
Speaker 5: Not that I ever really was a high level athlete,

495
00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:00,000
Speaker 5: but I'm definitely not anymore.

496
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:02,600
Speaker 8: But anybody listening could probably relate. You Guys can relate

497
00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:05,120
Speaker 8: to this if you tweak, like just say like your

498
00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:08,480
Speaker 8: back is hurting or something right, like you're something your

499
00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:12,000
Speaker 8: swing's jacked up automatically even if it's really shouldn't be,

500
00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:13,240
Speaker 8: and you get that it's not that hard. It not

501
00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:15,920
Speaker 8: that doesn't hurt that bad. And you know, we've all

502
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:19,639
Speaker 8: talked to Humillin enough over the years throwing a football

503
00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:23,879
Speaker 8: and how your mechanics work is it's everything, and you

504
00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:26,080
Speaker 8: don't change mechanics, you know, in the middle of a season.

505
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:27,399
Speaker 8: You don't change in the middle of a week or

506
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:29,800
Speaker 8: anything like that. If in the back of his mind,

507
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:31,880
Speaker 8: much like if you're in a golf swing and you're

508
00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:35,840
Speaker 8: sitting there, you think it might hurt sublimately, it's gonna

509
00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:36,440
Speaker 8: mess you up.

510
00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:38,359
Speaker 1: And so I think they're.

511
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:41,119
Speaker 8: Like, if there truly is an oblique issue, I think

512
00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:42,840
Speaker 8: they're gonna really have to try to rely on the

513
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,240
Speaker 8: run and San Francisco knows that they know.

514
00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:46,160
Speaker 6: Juck.

515
00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:49,760
Speaker 5: I realize now my confidence and the Seahawks is making

516
00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:55,680
Speaker 5: Ian uncomfortable, so very uncomfortable, Sorry about I mean, I

517
00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:58,760
Speaker 5: like that they're running the ball better here down the

518
00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:02,800
Speaker 5: end of the sea. I still have the least amount

519
00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:04,919
Speaker 5: of faith in the in the four phases, you know,

520
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:08,080
Speaker 5: run defense, pass defense, pass offense, run offense. I still

521
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:10,720
Speaker 5: think I have the least amount of confidence that what

522
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:13,800
Speaker 5: I've seen out of this run offense is going to.

523
00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:17,120
Speaker 1: Show up in the playoffs. I will say that.

524
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:19,080
Speaker 5: If they can get it going, and I know they

525
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:22,280
Speaker 5: will commit to it, and particularly because of the Darnald

526
00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:25,399
Speaker 5: injury that Ian pointed out so well, some of the

527
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:29,880
Speaker 5: factors there that man, I then then the confidence in

528
00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:33,520
Speaker 5: me really sores. So yeah, I wouldn't I wouldn't say

529
00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:36,160
Speaker 5: I'm comfortable with where the running game is, but I'm

530
00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:40,280
Speaker 5: encouraged that it it did finish the regular season much stronger.

531
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:42,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess I just don't want to let freak

532
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:46,919
Speaker 3: incidents really discourage me much because Ian what you just said.

533
00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:50,200
Speaker 3: People wonder why the Hawkston's score more points, Well, they

534
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:53,160
Speaker 3: scored thirteen. They should have had twenty six. Yeah, two

535
00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:55,199
Speaker 3: miss field goals. They had a wide open player on

536
00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:57,520
Speaker 3: first and goal, but Sam Darnold's got a hit. Those

537
00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:00,400
Speaker 3: are freak things that don't happen very often. They put

538
00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:03,080
Speaker 3: up three hundred and sixty one yards mark on that defense,

539
00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:05,040
Speaker 3: all right, that would have been good enough for seventh

540
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:07,960
Speaker 3: in the NFL this year. That's a buttload of yards.

541
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:10,760
Speaker 3: They had no problem moving the ball. So I'm not

542
00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:14,919
Speaker 3: that discouraged about the offensive performance in Week eighteen because

543
00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:17,840
Speaker 3: it took some freak incidents to keep thirteen points off

544
00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:18,200
Speaker 3: the board.

545
00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:20,520
Speaker 4: But are you concerned with the fact that they're thirtieth

546
00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:22,680
Speaker 4: in the NFL in red zone touchdown percent?

547
00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:23,200
Speaker 6: Absolutely.

548
00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:25,840
Speaker 4: We've been talking about that for a month, so Humillan

549
00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:28,000
Speaker 4: and Humilian has been the one who's brought this up

550
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:30,880
Speaker 4: some You all credit to him on that forty one

551
00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:34,280
Speaker 4: percent red zone touchdown percent since week ten. I'm concerned

552
00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:36,919
Speaker 4: about that because in the playoffs, you can't just settle

553
00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:37,560
Speaker 4: for threes.

554
00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:39,920
Speaker 6: You know, we don't need Steph Curry, you need seven.

555
00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:41,080
Speaker 6: You know you can't.

556
00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:41,440
Speaker 7: You can't.

557
00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:43,159
Speaker 6: Well you're shaking your head, but you can't.

558
00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:45,880
Speaker 3: Softy, I'm shaking my head because I wonder if they

559
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:49,040
Speaker 3: can do that in this game with our defense. They

560
00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:52,919
Speaker 3: need two touchdown obviously sew to scored re touch but

561
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:57,600
Speaker 3: does that discourage them from taking some crazy risks that

562
00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:00,800
Speaker 3: maybe they otherwise would have taken against a different offense.

563
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:01,760
Speaker 1: That's possible.

564
00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:04,160
Speaker 5: And I mean your original question was, are you confident

565
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:07,240
Speaker 5: in the run game? I would say I'm confident ish

566
00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:08,440
Speaker 5: in the run game, all.

567
00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:10,000
Speaker 1: Right, I'm more confident right now.

568
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:10,520
Speaker 6: Take ish.

569
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:13,280
Speaker 5: I'm more confident now than I was a month agoing

570
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:15,959
Speaker 5: And I don't know, I might challenge the assertion that

571
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:20,440
Speaker 5: of the four phases, I might say the run game,

572
00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:23,760
Speaker 5: I'm a little more confident with the pass game right now,

573
00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:28,479
Speaker 5: because I haven't seen the pass game since like October. So,

574
00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:31,320
Speaker 5: I mean, I've seen a couple of shots the JSN,

575
00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:34,160
Speaker 5: but I haven't seen a consistent pass game in two

576
00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:35,560
Speaker 5: months from this football.

577
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:37,840
Speaker 3: Well, Mark to your point and Chuck Owing and John Binder,

578
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:39,960
Speaker 3: we've been talking about the red zone defense now for

579
00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:42,040
Speaker 3: a month on this radio show. I mean, they're one

580
00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:44,399
Speaker 3: for six against the Niners in the red zone and

581
00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:47,120
Speaker 3: they've been terrible for the last month. Zone defense, red

582
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:50,720
Speaker 3: zone offense, they've been awful. One for six touchdowns. Somebody

583
00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:53,280
Speaker 3: cares about field goals. We're talking touchdowns and one for

584
00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:56,240
Speaker 3: six against the Niners, Chuck, But I just keep going

585
00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:58,080
Speaker 3: back to one thing, and I agree with what Dick's

586
00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:00,520
Speaker 3: saying wholeheartedly. The passing game is been kind of a

587
00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:03,080
Speaker 3: little bumpy for sure, but I just have so much

588
00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:05,520
Speaker 3: faith in this defense. I don't see the Niners moving

589
00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:07,440
Speaker 3: the ball, Chuck on these guys tomorrow.

590
00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:07,960
Speaker 6: I just can't.

591
00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 5: I don't either, And it's going to be interesting, really

592
00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:14,720
Speaker 5: interesting to see how Mike McDonald approaches a fourth and

593
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:17,679
Speaker 5: goal from the four again, because I think there is

594
00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:20,640
Speaker 5: an argument for what he did, and that is I have.

595
00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:22,520
Speaker 1: Such confidence in my defense.

596
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:25,280
Speaker 5: I want to try to get seven because they're going

597
00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:26,920
Speaker 5: to get the ball back at the four. I think

598
00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:29,440
Speaker 5: I can get the ball back again as opposed to

599
00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:31,880
Speaker 5: kicking a field goal here kicking it off, they get

600
00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:33,760
Speaker 5: the ball out at the thirty five of the forty

601
00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:36,280
Speaker 5: and have a very good chance of evening that score

602
00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:38,840
Speaker 5: at three to three. So I understand that. But also

603
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:42,200
Speaker 5: to your point, Softy, the defense is playing so well

604
00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:45,280
Speaker 5: in the playoffs in a one and done elimination. Is

605
00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:47,920
Speaker 5: he going to take the points whenever he can get them?

606
00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:50,520
Speaker 5: I can't wait to see what he does strategically there.

607
00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:52,800
Speaker 3: Well, listen, I'm the guy that's been saying for years

608
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:54,880
Speaker 3: and years and years, I'd rather have the great defense

609
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:56,879
Speaker 3: and the great offense. And I said it going up

610
00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:59,200
Speaker 3: against Michigan in the National title game that I'd rather

611
00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:02,480
Speaker 3: have Michigan's defense than the Hosky offense, and that played

612
00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:03,120
Speaker 3: out to be true.

613
00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:04,640
Speaker 6: We got burned by that in that game.

614
00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:06,879
Speaker 3: But this kind of reminds me in some ways of

615
00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:08,320
Speaker 3: the twenty thirteen game.

616
00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:09,919
Speaker 6: From a Seahawk perspective.

617
00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:12,800
Speaker 3: This is the best defense they've had since then, right

618
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:16,119
Speaker 3: since twenty thirteen? Questions, So if I go around the

619
00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:18,520
Speaker 3: room and I ask for predictions, like I mean, is

620
00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:19,360
Speaker 3: this even worth it?

621
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:20,920
Speaker 6: Like asking for predictions for this game?

622
00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:24,080
Speaker 3: The only question is does anybody want to go over

623
00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:26,560
Speaker 3: the over in this game. Does anybody want to call

624
00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:28,879
Speaker 3: for a higher scoring game? Didn't go forty five and

625
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:29,200
Speaker 3: a half?

626
00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:32,600
Speaker 1: I mean, the last three games, what are we looking at?

627
00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:35,280
Speaker 5: We're looking at thirteen to three, We're looking at what

628
00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:40,520
Speaker 5: seventeen thirteen, seventeen, thirty seventeen. I mean, no way, I

629
00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:44,399
Speaker 5: mean that's just my default. Even before this defense was awesome.

630
00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:47,280
Speaker 5: A Seahawks San Francisco game. Look at the playoff game

631
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:49,880
Speaker 5: three years ago against the four nine ers. A Seahawks

632
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:52,240
Speaker 5: San Francisco game is gonna end in the thirties.

633
00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:54,040
Speaker 1: That's that's just what happens.

634
00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:56,240
Speaker 3: So Hawks win a close or a close scoring game,

635
00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:57,680
Speaker 3: Hawks are a low scoring game.

636
00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:01,000
Speaker 6: Chuck go ahead twenty three teen Seahawks.

637
00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:04,199
Speaker 8: Okay, Ian, Well, first of all, it's an American to

638
00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:05,520
Speaker 8: bet the unders, so I can't do that.

639
00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:07,960
Speaker 1: But I think you're so yeah.

640
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:09,560
Speaker 6: I know, Ian.

641
00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:11,959
Speaker 5: You know the great thing about betting under you're always

642
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:12,919
Speaker 5: a winner until you're not.

643
00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:15,600
Speaker 6: You're always a luxer.

644
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,840
Speaker 1: That's a great point. You know what I was thinking.

645
00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:19,800
Speaker 1: I was I looked back.

646
00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:22,000
Speaker 8: I feel like this is gonna be a lot like

647
00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:24,600
Speaker 8: the game that they played three years ago in in

648
00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:26,879
Speaker 8: Santa Clara. And what I mean by that is this

649
00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:29,239
Speaker 8: Seattle goes down there. Everyone thought they were gonna get

650
00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:31,800
Speaker 8: their doors blown off by the forty nine ers. And

651
00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:33,560
Speaker 8: if you remember what happened in that game first half,

652
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:34,840
Speaker 8: so you don't have the lead of the half, yes,

653
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:37,400
Speaker 8: right now, field goal? Right they they had the lead

654
00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:41,120
Speaker 8: of the half because even though San Francisco outgained them

655
00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:43,000
Speaker 8: by about one hundred yards in the first half, they

656
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:45,200
Speaker 8: had somehow had a one point lead. We were in

657
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:48,160
Speaker 8: the press box, no word of a lie, getting ready

658
00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:49,920
Speaker 8: to book travel for wherever the hell we are supposed

659
00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:51,480
Speaker 8: to go the next week for the next game. Like

660
00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:53,640
Speaker 8: that's like, and we're thinking, these guys are gonna pull

661
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:56,280
Speaker 8: this off. Pete's gonna pull some magic. Shanahan's gonna melt down.

662
00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:58,200
Speaker 8: That's what's gonna happen. This is what happened, and this

663
00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:00,120
Speaker 8: is why I think's gonna happen tomorrow. This is San

664
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:04,800
Speaker 8: Francisco's second half drives. Touchdown off the kickoff, eighty yard

665
00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:08,680
Speaker 8: drive took like eight minutes, touchdown off a Gino Smith fumble,

666
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:13,480
Speaker 8: touchdown off a punt that was another seventy five yard drive,

667
00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:17,440
Speaker 8: and then a Gino Smith interception field goal. So twenty

668
00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:20,160
Speaker 8: four unanswered points. Thanks for coming. I think we're gonna

669
00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:22,880
Speaker 8: see something similar tomorrow. It's gonna be the other way around, Seattle.

670
00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:25,920
Speaker 8: It's gonna win going away, but we will not be comfortable.

671
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:28,480
Speaker 8: We will not be comfortable until late all right.

672
00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:31,080
Speaker 4: Mark, So the Seahawks obviously didn't play last week, went

673
00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:33,040
Speaker 4: to bye. They are now the odds on favorite to

674
00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:35,720
Speaker 4: win the NFC at plus one twenty rams or plus

675
00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:38,720
Speaker 4: one fifty. According to pet MGM, Seahawks now are the

676
00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:41,680
Speaker 4: favorite to win the Super Bowl plus three hundred rams

677
00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:44,000
Speaker 4: or plus three twenty What changed in a week?

678
00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:44,720
Speaker 6: Nothing?

679
00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:47,840
Speaker 4: Seahawks didn't play, rams did, yet they're the favorite. I

680
00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:50,480
Speaker 4: don't think there's any chance the Seahawks lose tomorrow.

681
00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:52,760
Speaker 6: I think a lot of people you okay.

682
00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:01,000
Speaker 3: Time, last time I heard that you the Mariners pissed

683
00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:02,360
Speaker 3: away four out of five, I.

684
00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:07,400
Speaker 6: Said, so, I said, yeah, yeah, freezing cold takes. Yeah,

685
00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:08,640
Speaker 6: freezing cold takes.

686
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:10,960
Speaker 4: In September thirteenth, I said the Miami Hurricanes are the

687
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:12,120
Speaker 4: best team in college football.

688
00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:13,160
Speaker 1: How that age pretty well?

689
00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 4: I'd say, like like charlist the run now tomorrow, there's

690
00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:19,880
Speaker 4: no chance they lose this game, and I'll just say this,

691
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:22,200
Speaker 4: just get ready for championship Sunday.

692
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:23,520
Speaker 6: You can see the rams A Bears.

693
00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:26,400
Speaker 5: Seven of the last eight regular season games against Niners

694
00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:27,720
Speaker 5: under forty five and a half.

695
00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:31,880
Speaker 8: These guys put some juice on that right now.

Speaker 3: here he is Lee Sterling, Paramount Sports, South Florida. I

722
00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:52,960
Speaker 3: getting ready for a big game on Monday night.

723
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:53,280
Speaker 7: Lee.

724
00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:55,520
Speaker 3: Before we talk about the weekend, I got a question

725
00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:59,200
Speaker 3: for you. We just saw your buddy Mark James. All right,

726
00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:01,760
Speaker 3: it was down here. He's wearing his Hurricane gear. He's

727
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:03,920
Speaker 3: all fired up for the game on Monday and he

728
00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:06,840
Speaker 3: says he's going to the game Monday night if you

729
00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:09,479
Speaker 3: can get him a ticket. So the question is, is

730
00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:11,520
Speaker 3: Mark James going to the game on Monday night?

731
00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:15,640
Speaker 7: I'd say about a three percent chance.

732
00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:19,000
Speaker 6: You know what I'm not gonna be the one to

733
00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:19,520
Speaker 6: tell him that.

734
00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:21,120
Speaker 1: All right, Yeah, that's a text from you.

735
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:23,200
Speaker 3: We can let him think about it for a couple

736
00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:25,200
Speaker 3: of days or a couple hours and think he's got

737
00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:28,120
Speaker 3: a shot, and then you're responsible for letting.

738
00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:30,920
Speaker 6: Him down, easy man. So three percent chance?

739
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:33,120
Speaker 3: All right, Well, well listen, we'll let the guy walk

740
00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:35,360
Speaker 3: around thinking he's gonna go and let him enjoy it

741
00:32:35,360 --> 00:32:36,280
Speaker 3: for another night or so.

742
00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:36,840
Speaker 7: All right.

743
00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:40,160
Speaker 3: NFL Playoffs, Denver at home against Buffalo.

744
00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:41,760
Speaker 6: This line has gone back and forth.

745
00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:44,280
Speaker 3: It's now the Broncos minus one and a half against

746
00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:47,280
Speaker 3: the Bills at Mile High on Saturday tomorrow, one thirty.

747
00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:50,640
Speaker 7: What do you think a lot of people forget that

748
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:54,120
Speaker 7: Buffalo won thirty one to seven last year as a

749
00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:56,800
Speaker 7: seven and a half point favored in that wildcard round game.

750
00:32:57,440 --> 00:32:59,560
Speaker 7: The score though, was ten to seven and a half.

751
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:03,720
Speaker 7: I just think things are just totally different now. Travel

752
00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:09,520
Speaker 7: for Buffalo, go cross country. Josh Allen, who knows if

753
00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:11,960
Speaker 7: he had a concussion last week. He's got a hand injury,

754
00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:16,120
Speaker 7: playing with a twisted knee, his receivers getting no separation.

755
00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:19,520
Speaker 7: I just think Denver with an extra week here, the

756
00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:21,800
Speaker 7: way they are at home thirteen to one run the

757
00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:25,240
Speaker 7: last fourteen straight up at home and week eleven through eighteen.

758
00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:28,960
Speaker 7: Everyone talks about their passing game, but it's improved. Number

759
00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:33,200
Speaker 7: seven these last eight weeks here in the EPA per

760
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:36,560
Speaker 7: drop back and number eight in passing success rate. Here,

761
00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:40,360
Speaker 7: I think they exact that revenge for Lasher's wildcard loss.

762
00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:42,600
Speaker 7: I like the Broncos here twenty six to twenty.

763
00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:46,880
Speaker 5: All right, New England hosting Houston, New England giving three

764
00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:48,920
Speaker 5: and the totals forty and a half.

765
00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:51,320
Speaker 1: They're expecting a low scoring game. What do you expect?

766
00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:55,520
Speaker 7: Yeah? And defense I think is going to be in

767
00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:59,240
Speaker 7: order here. I mean this Houston defense number one in

768
00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:04,080
Speaker 7: the NFL New England, the best tackling unit on defense.

769
00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:07,440
Speaker 7: No Nicocollins for Houston, So you got to think that

770
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:11,279
Speaker 7: big plays aren't going to happen as much as often here.

771
00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:15,959
Speaker 7: In legend MVP here of the NFL Patriots, Drake May

772
00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:19,120
Speaker 7: was made to look like a second year quarterback last

773
00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:22,640
Speaker 7: week against I thought an average Chargers defense here, So

774
00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:26,359
Speaker 7: I think defense is in order here. Total sitting at

775
00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:29,040
Speaker 7: forty and a half, I could see like a seventeen

776
00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:31,360
Speaker 7: to thirteen game. I don't know who's gonna win, But

777
00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:33,160
Speaker 7: we're gonna go with the under forty and a half

778
00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:33,840
Speaker 7: total points.

779
00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:35,600
Speaker 3: I love to take the under forty and a half

780
00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:38,600
Speaker 3: in the Houston, New England game. So couple of factoids

781
00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:40,920
Speaker 3: for you, Lee, But you, being the expert handicapper that

782
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:42,960
Speaker 3: you are, you probably already know this. Brock Perty has

783
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:45,120
Speaker 3: never lost the game, right diackt Lumanfield is four and

784
00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:45,920
Speaker 3: zho is that correct?

785
00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:47,160
Speaker 6: Here's the other stat.

786
00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:50,280
Speaker 3: The Seahawks last played on January third, which was thirteen

787
00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:53,919
Speaker 3: days ago. Niners played January eleventh, which is five days ago.

788
00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:57,600
Speaker 3: Since nineteen eighty four, forty two years ago, teams with

789
00:34:57,680 --> 00:35:01,520
Speaker 3: eight days of rest or more versus teams with five

790
00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:05,319
Speaker 3: days or rest or more are seven to zero in

791
00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:08,560
Speaker 3: the postseason. They've never lost. So something's got to give.

792
00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:12,799
Speaker 3: Either brock Perty loses tomorrow or the Seahawks become the

793
00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:14,759
Speaker 3: first team in forty two years with that kind of

794
00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:16,279
Speaker 3: rest to lose a football game.

795
00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:19,319
Speaker 6: So what happens tomorrow? Hawk's given seven oh.

796
00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:22,759
Speaker 7: I think that sist goes in trouble. I think the

797
00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:25,000
Speaker 7: only way they can win this game they got to

798
00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:27,040
Speaker 7: run the ball with Christian McCaffrey. They've got to make

799
00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:31,360
Speaker 7: this like a seven or eight possession game for each team. Here.

800
00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:34,680
Speaker 7: Look at the two teams that played in the playoff,

801
00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:39,319
Speaker 7: Philadelphia and then the last game regular season. He's only

802
00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:42,360
Speaker 7: carried the ball fifteen times versus Philly eight times against

803
00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:47,360
Speaker 7: Seattle when they were successful five game stretch. Carried between

804
00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:49,879
Speaker 7: twenty and twenty four times before that in the first

805
00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:54,080
Speaker 7: game this year twenty two times against Seattle. So that's

806
00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:55,760
Speaker 7: the key. If they can get him the ball twenty

807
00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:58,120
Speaker 7: more times, they can shorten the game. They have a

808
00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:00,239
Speaker 7: chance here. But I think this Seattle defense, it's a

809
00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:03,319
Speaker 7: special here. I think the Seattle's are going to take

810
00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:06,439
Speaker 7: advantage some of those injuries here in San Francisco. They're

811
00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:09,640
Speaker 7: not the same team and a little tougher playing a

812
00:36:09,719 --> 00:36:11,600
Speaker 7: team a couple of weeks later. But I think the

813
00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:14,840
Speaker 7: travel will catch up with San Francisco. And I just

814
00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:18,640
Speaker 7: don't trust brock Purty. Obviously, Sam Darnold, you want to

815
00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:20,880
Speaker 7: have him on the plus side of the field more.

816
00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:23,880
Speaker 7: He's much better there. But I think Seattle is the

817
00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:27,320
Speaker 7: right side. I'm taking Seattle here twenty eight twenty.

818
00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:28,600
Speaker 1: Well, I hope you're right.

819
00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:32,680
Speaker 5: If you are right, and we're looking at Chicago Rams winner,

820
00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:34,799
Speaker 5: I want the Bears. Am I going to get the

821
00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:37,960
Speaker 5: Bears there? Plus three and a half at home against

822
00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:38,560
Speaker 5: the Rams?

823
00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:41,920
Speaker 7: I think there's a good chance you are. I just

824
00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:46,400
Speaker 7: think that this Chicago team, I think it's about strike

825
00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:50,600
Speaker 7: twelve here. You know, they've won seven games for less

826
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:53,680
Speaker 7: than two minutes here to go in the game. Obviously,

827
00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:57,759
Speaker 7: weather is a factor here. Win chills me minus the

828
00:36:57,840 --> 00:37:00,839
Speaker 7: minus range here, but Matt's that it has done well.

829
00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:03,600
Speaker 7: He has a plus record, a winning record in games

830
00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:06,600
Speaker 7: under forty degrees. I just don't think that the Bears

831
00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:09,560
Speaker 7: can cover Pooka. I also don't think they can cover

832
00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:12,560
Speaker 7: DeVante Adams. I think they're real weak there. Especially you

833
00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:15,920
Speaker 7: can attack the safeties. We've seen a couple teams do

834
00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:19,640
Speaker 7: that Green Bay, especially during the regular season, running crossing

835
00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:22,239
Speaker 7: patterns steep, and they just can't stay up with these

836
00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:25,120
Speaker 7: two guys. And the Bears are with out linebacker TJ. Edwards,

837
00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:27,200
Speaker 7: and when he's out, opponents have run for more than

838
00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:30,799
Speaker 7: six yards of carry here. Yep, I hate to say it.

839
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:33,880
Speaker 7: Rams are going to be coming to Loomin here a

840
00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:36,640
Speaker 7: week from now. Rams here thirty one to.

841
00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:38,359
Speaker 3: Twenty all right, Well, I know what I would do

842
00:37:38,400 --> 00:37:40,920
Speaker 3: if I were a Hurricane fan for this game Monday.

843
00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:42,759
Speaker 3: First of all, I'd be there no matter what it takes.

844
00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:45,839
Speaker 3: I'd be there, and you will be there on Monday night.

845
00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:48,640
Speaker 3: But I would play the emotional hedge all day. I'd

846
00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:50,319
Speaker 3: put a bunch of money on the Hoosiers on the

847
00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:52,759
Speaker 3: money line. If I win the game, great, If I

848
00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:54,320
Speaker 3: lose the game, I got a couple of bucks in

849
00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:57,680
Speaker 3: my pockets. So Indiana's given eight and a half. Now,

850
00:37:57,760 --> 00:38:00,879
Speaker 3: wow against the Hurricanes on Monday. What do you think

851
00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:02,839
Speaker 3: are your kine's gonna pull this off Monday night?

852
00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:06,959
Speaker 7: Well, you know they loved. Indiana's defense loves to mess

853
00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:11,360
Speaker 7: with the mind of offenses. First down, they almost always

854
00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:15,719
Speaker 7: run blitz, second and long. They almost always blitz. Even

855
00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:19,560
Speaker 7: some cornerback blitz is here, third and long. Something that's interesting.

856
00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:25,440
Speaker 7: They very rarely blitz, and I think by the defensive coordinator,

857
00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:30,200
Speaker 7: Corey Heatherman, being Kurt Signetti's defensive coordinator for three years

858
00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:33,120
Speaker 7: really helps a lot here. I've watched the tape of

859
00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:35,719
Speaker 7: the three games that Indiana was in until the end,

860
00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:37,960
Speaker 7: and I think that they're beatable. I mean, look at

861
00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:40,640
Speaker 7: the teams they played Penn State, they had to score,

862
00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:43,719
Speaker 7: last play the game, win it. They scored twenty seven

863
00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:47,880
Speaker 7: thirteen against Ohio State, twenty against Iowa. I think Miami's

864
00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:50,960
Speaker 7: the best defense that they've played, and I think Miami's

865
00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:55,000
Speaker 7: gonna play that underdog mantra here. They did it against

866
00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:57,920
Speaker 7: Nebraska in nineteen eighty three when people said it was

867
00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:01,600
Speaker 7: the best team ever. Nebraska was avage fifty two points

868
00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:04,640
Speaker 7: per game that year. They ended off up pulling off

869
00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:08,480
Speaker 7: the shaker Miami. I think they win the game outright.

870
00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:11,719
Speaker 7: I'm taking them plus eight and a half and I'm

871
00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:15,320
Speaker 7: sprinkling a third of my wager on the money line.

872
00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:16,719
Speaker 1: The Kaanes win that.

873
00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:21,640
Speaker 7: Sixth national title and they get retribution here for twenty

874
00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:22,399
Speaker 7: three years later.

875
00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:25,520
Speaker 3: Well you know what the only way, Well, I'm fine

876
00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:27,799
Speaker 3: with that. I'm I'm rooting for Indiana. I think you

877
00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:29,680
Speaker 3: are too, because of what they did to Oregon. We

878
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:32,000
Speaker 3: owe them that after what they did to Oregon. But

879
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:34,680
Speaker 3: I would love for Mario Christobal to win this game

880
00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:37,880
Speaker 3: and then have the Miami parade down Eugene, Oregons downtown

881
00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:39,240
Speaker 3: street nice and shove.

882
00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:39,840
Speaker 6: It right in their face.

883
00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:40,240
Speaker 7: Man.

884
00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:43,320
Speaker 6: All right, good stuff, Lee, We're talking a week, buddy, appreciate.

885
00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:45,719
Speaker 7: It, Pal, sounds good. Guys, see you all right.

886
00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:46,600
Speaker 6: At least starting with us.

887
00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:48,920
Speaker 3: Likes Denver minus the one and a half against Buffalo,

888
00:39:49,080 --> 00:39:51,239
Speaker 3: likes the under and the Jet Texan game. He likes

889
00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:53,759
Speaker 3: the Hawks minus the seven rams minus the three and

890
00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:55,719
Speaker 3: a half, and he likes the Hurricanes plus the eight

891
00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:58,400
Speaker 3: and a half against Indiana on Monday night. All right,

892
00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:01,320
Speaker 3: Bonta Hill is set to join up next segment. You

893
00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:03,280
Speaker 3: never know with him though. He could be on a plane,

894
00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:04,680
Speaker 3: he could be on a boat, he could be in

895
00:40:04,719 --> 00:40:05,840
Speaker 3: a car, he could.

896
00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:06,719
Speaker 6: Be doing anything right now.

897
00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:08,920
Speaker 3: So we're set to t have Banta Hill from the

898
00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:10,279
Speaker 3: game from San Francisco.

899
00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:11,160
Speaker 6: From the Bay Area.

900
00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:14,280
Speaker 3: We continue from the Occidental Hall the Ox All Baby

901
00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:17,280
Speaker 3: across from Lumen right here on ninety three three KJARFM.
