Seahawks go on the road, get a 20 00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:42,599 Speaker 2: big road win at Jacksonville, coming off their emotional win 21 00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:43,199 Speaker 2: Monday night. 22 00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:46,520 Speaker 1: Mike McDonald, you is now ten and one on the road. 23 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:48,480 Speaker 1: How about that? Yeah? 24 00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:52,360 Speaker 3: I think that it reminds me. There's been two times 25 00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:56,440 Speaker 3: where I feel like I've been in limbo. As you 26 00:00:56,480 --> 00:01:00,560 Speaker 3: guys know, I've been very supportive of Mike McDonald as 27 00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:04,800 Speaker 3: a coach, really liked the person, really liked the coach. 28 00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:10,840 Speaker 3: But going back to a year ago, after the Bills game, 29 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 3: I was like, oh man, this is just not working. 30 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:17,399 Speaker 3: It was thirty one to ten, and I mean the 31 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:20,480 Speaker 3: Bills had one hundred and sixty four yards rushing to 32 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:24,479 Speaker 3: eighty one passing, twenty nine first downs, and the tape 33 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 3: was just as bad as those numbers. And then things 34 00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:31,559 Speaker 3: got a lot better after week. And they did lose 35 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 3: the next week in an overtime game against the Rams. 36 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 3: That was the Gino one hundred and five yard pick 37 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 3: six and then another interception in the red zone, and 38 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 3: yet the defense was much better, and then they really 39 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 3: took off thereafter. So the game against Tampa Bay, just 40 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:55,360 Speaker 3: watching how bad. Now, even as bad as it was, 41 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 3: at least you could say going back to Tampa game, 42 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 3: at least you could say that the the the Buccaneers 43 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 3: had two point three yards per rush attempt, so they 44 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 3: were still building the wall. Even in the worst of times. 45 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 3: They were stopping the run. 46 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 1: So that was a. 47 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 3: Note of optimism in that. But the pass rush was dreadful, 48 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:20,639 Speaker 3: the coverage was dreadful. Yeah, they had some guys down 49 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 3: in the secondary, but they're they're front liners up front, 50 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 3: you know, just way to pass it of a tippet 51 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 3: of a pass rushing. So now you wake up on Sunday, 52 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:37,360 Speaker 3: I read the injury report and it's three, you know, 53 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 3: three guys, and I'm like, okay, let's see what you got, 54 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 3: Mike McDonald. You know, three out of four starters. You're 55 00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:49,360 Speaker 3: going against a one lost team, a hot team, and uh, 56 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:52,680 Speaker 3: you know, a talented quarterback, maybe an underperforming quarterback to 57 00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:55,360 Speaker 3: some extent, but a talented guy that feeling confident just 58 00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 3: beat the Chiefs. And I just thought that the game 59 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 3: plan was phenomenal. I mean, he got those guys going, 60 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 3: He put the switch to their ass. From an emotional standpoint, 61 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 3: they Leonard Williams, I thought had his worst game as 62 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 3: a Seahawk against the Buccaneers. He had one of his 63 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 3: better ones yesterday. I think it looked like d Law 64 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:21,639 Speaker 3: was just enraged, and so there was just a lot 65 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 3: more fire. And then the schemes very very broad. 66 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:27,160 Speaker 1: You know. 67 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 3: Now they only rushed either four or five guys, and 68 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 3: they had an occasional drop eight, but they didn't come 69 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 3: up with heavy blitzes. There was no there was zero 70 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 3: six or seven or eight man rushes, and yet they 71 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:43,360 Speaker 3: presented seemingly a new look to Trevor Lawrence on every play, 72 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 3: and there was disguise coverages. There was lots of stunts 73 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 3: and twists. There were there were blitzes that were taking 74 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 3: advantage of protection schemes that the the Jaguars were employing. 75 00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:02,040 Speaker 3: There was coverage rotation to help the the new guys 76 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 3: and the backups. There was just a really phenomenal game plan. 77 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 3: And as bad as it was against the Buccaneers, and 78 00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 3: credit Mike McDonald. He stood at that microphone he said, 79 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 3: this is on me. I gotta be better. He got 80 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:18,720 Speaker 3: a lot better in seven days, and that's not the 81 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:21,040 Speaker 3: first time we've seen that. So I don't know. I'm 82 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 3: just really glad he's our coach. 83 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:26,359 Speaker 4: Hughge statement made early by Byron Murphy. I mean started 84 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,839 Speaker 4: the game with a sack, ended up with seven pressures. 85 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:30,599 Speaker 4: He got four and a half socks on the year. 86 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:35,040 Speaker 4: Are you just seeing a better version of Byron Murphy 87 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 4: or do you think it's a Byron Murphy playing at 88 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 4: a better spot than he was last year. 89 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 3: Well, he got the sack on a play that was 90 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:45,559 Speaker 3: just tremendous coverage. It was one of the only drop 91 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 3: eights that the Seahawks had in there, and Trevor Lawrence 92 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:54,239 Speaker 3: officially that was six point two seconds. So I would 93 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:57,720 Speaker 3: not really say that first sack was anything that he 94 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 3: did well. Now he did other things well that were hidden. 95 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 3: He had another sack where they were doing what's called 96 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 3: power pass where the guard in front of him disappears 97 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 3: to go uh to create an illusion of play action 98 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 3: to a greater extent, Well, that kind of opens a gap. 99 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,440 Speaker 3: It's hard, that's a hard block for the center. So 100 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 3: he was able to eat that up. He had another 101 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 3: one where he was doing a te stunt where his 102 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 3: job was to slam the offensive tackle, the left tackle, 103 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:29,360 Speaker 3: who really struggled by the way walker little for Jacksonville, 104 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:33,159 Speaker 3: but to slam him and in essence set the table 105 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:37,600 Speaker 3: for I believe it was Uh. I think it was 106 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 3: Nuoso on that's it doesn't matter, but on that play, 107 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 3: the leverage that he had he was inside leverage on 108 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,359 Speaker 3: the tackle, and then now he had that that vacant 109 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:50,480 Speaker 3: b gap, the gap between the guard and the tackle 110 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:55,160 Speaker 3: to accelerate through. So I think that statistically the statsy 111 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 3: that he had were kind of from scheme and and 112 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 3: that's what I was trying to allude to in the 113 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 3: onset of the of the segment here that Mike McDonald. 114 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,840 Speaker 3: He said, Hey, I'm going to put my guys in 115 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 3: position where it's easier to be successful. And there's multiple examples, 116 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:13,840 Speaker 3: including that fire Murphy here. 117 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 2: Let me ask you this because Dick and I got 118 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 2: into an argument, but a little bit of a debate 119 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 2: last week. 120 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 1: We repeat on each other heel exactly. 121 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 2: Before, well just about how much we should allow injuries 122 00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 2: to be an excuse for what happened against the Buccaneers 123 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 2: on defense, and I said a little bit, but I'll 124 00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 2: just repeat what I said that I always thought that 125 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 2: the star of the show was going to be Mike 126 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 2: McDonald when he came here. I thought his scheme was 127 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:42,120 Speaker 2: going to be the star. And his scheme was the star. Yesterday, 128 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 2: no Witherspoon, no Love, no Reek willing Right. A lot 129 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 2: of guys out yesterday, just like a lot of guys 130 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 2: out against Tampa. 131 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,920 Speaker 1: So why was I able to work yesterday and not 132 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,839 Speaker 1: against Tampa? Is it just the opponent? The quality the opponent? 133 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:58,080 Speaker 3: Well, I think you do when you have a game 134 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:01,800 Speaker 3: like Tampa Bay, you come back and you watch the 135 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:06,720 Speaker 3: tape and it's it's embarrassing. And all eleven guys on 136 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:10,119 Speaker 3: that tape, there's nobody who really played well. Every single 137 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 3: one of them can look and say, wow, that is trash. 138 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 3: You know, you know, we we you know, both personally 139 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 3: and as a unit. And so if if you've acquired 140 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 3: the guys that you think you've have, and and John 141 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 3: Sneiner has always said, hey, I want to guy. Find 142 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 3: guys with a chip on their shoulder. They have that 143 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 3: competitive edge. It's like, hey, you know the guys on 144 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 3: KG are and all this stuff, nobody's all the All 145 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 3: we're doing is showing the mirror, just holding up the mirror. 146 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 3: If you don't like what you see, that's on you 147 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:47,040 Speaker 3: because you watch that tape and that's your mirror. That's 148 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 3: what you did. And I think that those guys, they're competitors. 149 00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 3: And Mike McDonald, I think they were led by McDonald's 150 00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 3: saying hey, this is on me. But there's a natural 151 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,640 Speaker 3: impulse in a competitor that say no, no, no, no, no, man, 152 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 3: that's not on you. There's a funny thing about both 153 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 3: blame and acclaim that the more you give it away, 154 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 3: the more it comes back on you. You know, and 155 00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 3: and excuse me with blame. The more you take on it, 156 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 3: the more people want to take it off of you. 157 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 3: And I think that Mike McDonald took it on him 158 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,640 Speaker 3: the blame, and so the players, no, no, no, this 159 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 3: is on us. And they just had a concerted effort. 160 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:35,000 Speaker 3: They had more focus and then so they had to 161 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 3: be an effort thing. But then in the back end 162 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 3: with the coverage, they had to play more sound, communicative 163 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:48,719 Speaker 3: zone defense and play as a unit tied together to 164 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,960 Speaker 3: mend the holes that were open for Baker Mayfield. And 165 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 3: I just thought that they did a great job. And 166 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,959 Speaker 3: we've seen that before. Hell, I even noticed in the preseason. 167 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 3: I've made mention that that against against the Raiders in 168 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:06,439 Speaker 3: preseason game number one, they gave up touring thirty two 169 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 3: air yards on two hundred and ninety six total passing yards. 170 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:13,719 Speaker 3: The next week they went from two thirty two to fifteen. 171 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 3: That to me is it's really an example of the 172 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 3: coaching that you get and the coaching that you got 173 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:23,080 Speaker 3: after Tampa Bay and the teaching and it's like we 174 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:25,960 Speaker 3: got to button u up, and yeah, it was. It 175 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:30,040 Speaker 3: was something I really tipped my hat to Mike McDonald. 176 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 4: Hw At some point we get to a point with 177 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 4: a player where he goes from oft injured to injury prone. 178 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:40,960 Speaker 4: Where on that line are we with Devin Witherspoon Because 179 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:43,680 Speaker 4: this was his seventh game he's missed in his two 180 00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 4: plus year career, he missed three and twenty twenty three, 181 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:49,839 Speaker 4: he's missed four this year. So I mean, how long 182 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 4: does this go before he starts to get the injury 183 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 4: prone tag? 184 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 3: I think it's a good question, and I am influenced 185 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,679 Speaker 3: by my experience on the thirty third team where Mike 186 00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 3: Getting's the the uh, the president of Pro Scout who 187 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 3: is They're a consultant to the NFL, And I mean, 188 00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:12,719 Speaker 3: that's that's the only job he has. He doesn't he 189 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 3: doesn't get on a website and and you know, talk 190 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:17,479 Speaker 3: to all of us. Heah, who's he? He is employed 191 00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 3: by teams like, hey, what should we do to fix 192 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:20,600 Speaker 3: our roster? 193 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 1: Right? 194 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:25,199 Speaker 3: And he preaches over and over and over again, he says, 195 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 3: you can't. You've got you've got to get rid of 196 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 3: declining players and injured, injury production, injured, excuse me, injury 197 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 3: prone guys. And so it's a concern and the what 198 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:39,960 Speaker 3: was the weight of him coming out, he was like 199 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 3: one hundred and eighty. 200 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:40,959 Speaker 1: You know. 201 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,600 Speaker 3: I remember just saying, oh man, he's uh, he's eight 202 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 3: pounds heavier than one seventy nine, you know. And and 203 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 3: for a guy who throws his body around like that, 204 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:53,080 Speaker 3: I mean, it's just hard as frame. The mind is willing, 205 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 3: but the you know, the frame is the frame. And 206 00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 3: so you know, Jalen Carter was the guy that a 207 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 3: lot of us wanted at that number five spot. I'm 208 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,199 Speaker 3: not here to say that that it was a mistake 209 00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 3: to take him, because I really love his competitiveness. But 210 00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:11,840 Speaker 3: you're right, he keeps stacking up these miss games. It's really, uh, 211 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 3: it's really detrimental. 212 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 1: Well, he've been sitting here for fifteen minutes. 213 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 2: We haven't mentioned Sam Donald yet and his game that 214 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 2: he had Sam Donald. If not for Baker Mayfield might 215 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,319 Speaker 2: be getting talked about as the MVP of the NFL. 216 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:27,079 Speaker 1: I mean, he's number one in the league and yards 217 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 1: per attempt? What is he? 218 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 2: Number three in passer rating, number three in QBR. 219 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 1: He's given everything you were hoping to get at him. 220 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 2: I mean, what is Sam Darnald doing kind of behind 221 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 2: the scenes that maybe people don't know that you think 222 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 2: they should know you. 223 00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 3: Well, I think that he's he is seeing the field 224 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 3: and he's doing things that a lot of quarterbacks find 225 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 3: to be difficult, like that touchdown passed to Cup. If 226 00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:57,720 Speaker 3: you if you look at it, when when he goes 227 00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:02,080 Speaker 3: to throw the ball, there was so anticipatory and the 228 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 3: and the corner, the corner that uh was guarding him 229 00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:09,720 Speaker 3: that was in a cover zero look he anticipated the 230 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 3: at When I watched it on TV, at first I 231 00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 3: thought that that had been an outside leverage defender on 232 00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 3: an inside breaking route. That's how how how far outside 233 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 3: the defender was. Now it turns out that at the 234 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:28,960 Speaker 3: break point that Cup actually had the outside leverage on 235 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:31,440 Speaker 3: an outbreaking route, which is what you want. But the 236 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 3: guy tried to jump it underneath, and so Darnold had 237 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,320 Speaker 3: to just put it in a perfect spot. He had 238 00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:40,560 Speaker 3: Charles Cross in his face, he had because that was 239 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 3: that was you know, at least at the onset of 240 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:46,720 Speaker 3: heavy onset blitz, it's set with seven guys and so 241 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 3: so you had Barner getting pushed back in his face. 242 00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:52,079 Speaker 3: So that that's beautiful. I mean, he remember the other 243 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 3: one to Cup over the middle where he goes he 244 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:59,640 Speaker 3: goes play action and he goes five step, no hitch. 245 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 3: So he turned, he goes under center and he goes one, 246 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 3: two three four five. Now he turns back. It's a 247 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 3: three D four innder zone, so there's four underneath. It 248 00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 3: looks a lot like a baseball infield, and the window 249 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 3: that he hits is between the shortstop and the third base. 250 00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 3: To carry out the analogy, but the third basement was 251 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:20,840 Speaker 3: a dB. It wasn't a linebacker. It was a safety. 252 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:24,119 Speaker 3: And and I don't know, there's a lot of quarterbacks 253 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 3: that be they'd be worried as hell, Like damn, that 254 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 3: third baseman's gonna fall back in towards the short stop 255 00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:31,520 Speaker 3: and get his hands on that ball. The only way 256 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 3: you beat that is with maximum elite timing, and that's 257 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:39,160 Speaker 3: what he does. He just won two, three, four five 258 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:42,120 Speaker 3: and again no hit. If he had taken a hitch step, 259 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:46,000 Speaker 3: then the play's done. But he had to knife it 260 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:48,360 Speaker 3: into that little tiny window and a cup, of course, 261 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:50,840 Speaker 3: Cup has the great hands and you get a big 262 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 3: gain out of that. That is difficult stuff. And then 263 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:57,679 Speaker 3: there's other there's other things where I see him, his awareness. 264 00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 3: He he has shown us really good athleticism. Right, It's 265 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 3: like some of his best plays have been, you know, 266 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:07,320 Speaker 3: at Pittsburgh, you know, beating Patrick Queen for a twenty 267 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 3: seven yard escaping. How about the play against the Cardinals 268 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:12,679 Speaker 3: where he ran up the middle for thirty you know, 269 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:15,040 Speaker 3: thirty five or I think thirty eight yards whatever it was. 270 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 1: You know. 271 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 3: So he has put his athleticism on display, but he 272 00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 3: knows he's not an elite athlete by today's standards. And 273 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 3: so there's oftentimes where he'll be looking and he's got 274 00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 3: his looking to his left, and then if he feels pressure, 275 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 3: he knows exactly where his checkdown is. So he's not 276 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:40,040 Speaker 3: trying to scramble around take sacks this necessarily. He just 277 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 3: he's he's beating the pressure with his mind. Doesn't even 278 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:46,960 Speaker 3: have to move his feet. It's just nowhere. 279 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:47,240 Speaker 1: Hey. 280 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:50,360 Speaker 3: Like, I know, I've got Charbonne sitting over the B 281 00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 3: gap on my right side. I'm gonna look to my 282 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:57,680 Speaker 3: left two or three man a concept. But if anybody 283 00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:01,080 Speaker 3: flashes an ugly color flashes in front to me, who 284 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 3: beats one of my defensive linemen, boom, I'm going right 285 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:04,480 Speaker 3: there with the ball. 286 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:07,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, he and me a favor hold tight hold 287 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:09,160 Speaker 2: that thought, because I want to talk a lot more 288 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 2: about the game with Jacksonville. Husky's got a big game 289 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 2: against Michigan. Uh just it would be unfair to talk 290 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 2: you dub Michigan and not have you on the air 291 00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:21,440 Speaker 2: to discuss the Huskies and Wolverines, considering how far you 292 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 2: go back with that rivalry. 293 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:23,240 Speaker 1: Forgot. 294 00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:24,880 Speaker 4: It would also be unfair not to talk to you 295 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 4: about that unbelievable performance from the quarterback. 296 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 2: That's right, and all the firings we had over the weekend, 297 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:31,760 Speaker 2: by the way, and you know what, we might even 298 00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 2: talk some preseason NBA basketball with you.

I mean, I don't 320 00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:34,520 Speaker 2: know if you saw the video the game ends and 321 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 2: were like, you know, forty five minutes away from the 322 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:39,440 Speaker 2: Mariner game ending, people were hanging around the concourse.

It 325 00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:47,040 Speaker 2: was a really unique atmosphere. But it does suck that 326 00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:49,880 Speaker 2: both those games did not get their own spotlight because 327 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 2: DeMont Williams deserves it. School record five hundred and thirty 328 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 2: eight yard, sixteenth FBS. 329 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:58,120 Speaker 1: Player to throw for four and run for one. 330 00:16:58,200 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 2: He just won the Big Ten Player of the Week 331 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 2: again for the second time. What did you make of 332 00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:07,360 Speaker 2: what you saw from number two? On Friday pal Well. 333 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:10,440 Speaker 3: I think he's just such a live wire and electric. 334 00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 3: I think his acceleration usually there's a distinction between quickness 335 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:19,080 Speaker 3: and speed, and I think we all know that we've 336 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:21,480 Speaker 3: been watching sports long enough, but he is a guy 337 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:26,399 Speaker 3: that has absolute top shelf elite quickness and top shelf 338 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:32,439 Speaker 3: elite speed, and so from that standpoint, he's devastating with 339 00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 3: the ball in his hand. But you know, he's got 340 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 3: a hell of a release. I mean, he looks mechanically 341 00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 3: that there's nobody you could name to me that I 342 00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:46,440 Speaker 3: would say has a vastly superior release. I think it's beautiful, 343 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 3: it's quick, it comes out over the top, it's consistent. 344 00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:51,959 Speaker 3: It's looks way better than some of the other guys 345 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 3: that have his athletic profile, like Lamar Jackson or Kyler Murray. 346 00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:59,719 Speaker 3: You know, those guys are you know, equally as fast 347 00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:05,480 Speaker 3: or twitchy, respectively. But I just think that demand's a 348 00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:08,720 Speaker 3: better throw of the football and you know, more velocity, 349 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 3: it's more natural. So so I think he's getting good protection, 350 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 3: he's got good targets and Rutgers, you know, they just 351 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,159 Speaker 3: seem kind of hapless, but but he's been able to 352 00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:21,359 Speaker 3: do it to a lot of people. It's fun to watch. 353 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:23,280 Speaker 3: We kind of expected to see all this, but I 354 00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 3: don't know what we expect to see games like that often. 355 00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 1: Well, that's the thing. 356 00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:28,560 Speaker 4: It's like every time he plays a team that has, 357 00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:33,680 Speaker 4: you know, mediocre to limited athleticism, he just looks unbelievable. 358 00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:36,560 Speaker 4: Now it's time to step up and obviously you're gonna 359 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:39,199 Speaker 4: face Michigan athletes, which are going to be more similar 360 00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:41,640 Speaker 4: to Ohio State athletes than they are to Rutgers athletes. 361 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:43,959 Speaker 4: So what does he need to do to take that 362 00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:45,600 Speaker 4: next step in those games? 363 00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 1: We've seen him against Oregon, Penn State. 364 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:51,200 Speaker 4: And Ohio State and it hasn't been good in any 365 00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:53,520 Speaker 4: one of those games. Now, obviously that's not all his fault, 366 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 4: but what does he need to do to be a 367 00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 4: complete player in those games and take the next step. 368 00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 3: Well, I think that his opportunities to use his legs 369 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:05,600 Speaker 3: will be there, but they're less frequent. I think having 370 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:09,879 Speaker 3: a firm grasp of of of the progressions in his 371 00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 3: in his route sequence, if he can quickly get to 372 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:15,360 Speaker 3: the third or fourth guy and get the ball out 373 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 3: of his hands, I think that's buy and large is 374 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 3: going to be an issue. I mean, uh, there's a 375 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:23,920 Speaker 3: little bit of a blueprint that Ohio State showed Michigan 376 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:26,560 Speaker 3: if indeed they Now, I don't think the Michigan has 377 00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:30,120 Speaker 3: the type of team that that Ohio State has defensively, 378 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:33,160 Speaker 3: but but you're right, they're they're closer to Ohio State 379 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:35,960 Speaker 3: than they are the Rutgers talking about Michigan, and I 380 00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 3: think that I think the environment is going to be 381 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:42,879 Speaker 3: relatively lame. I think that the Michigan fans are going 382 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,240 Speaker 3: to be disappointed with the Oklahoma loss, are going to 383 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:49,120 Speaker 3: be disappointed with the relatively poor showing that they had 384 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 3: at sc and and so I don't know, Yes, well 385 00:19:57,240 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 3: they they maybe, but I don't I don't know that 386 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 3: it's gonna be an electric capt Maybe you know they 387 00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:07,040 Speaker 3: got the game day, right, isn't Fox doing a game day? 388 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:11,160 Speaker 3: You know? So maybe they've got one last gasp in them. 389 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:15,680 Speaker 3: But you know, you had in patent Matt Patricia, who 390 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:18,920 Speaker 3: has three Super Bowl rings, the defensive coordinator for Ohio State, 391 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:22,720 Speaker 3: so he played on on some rundowns. He would play 392 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:25,480 Speaker 3: the bear front, which is a five down front with 393 00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:28,040 Speaker 3: the center and both guards covered. So you're you're kind 394 00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:30,680 Speaker 3: of inducing that outside run, but I think they had 395 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 3: the team speed to run it. You know, it's like, hey, 396 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 3: go ahead and try and go go off tackle to us, 397 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:39,679 Speaker 3: We're going to be there. They didn't want to, you know, 398 00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:42,399 Speaker 3: defend the up the middle part as much. But but 399 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:45,879 Speaker 3: then that front allows with the defensive ends in that 400 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 3: because there's five guys on the line of scrimmage, the 401 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:52,440 Speaker 3: defensive line away from Jonah Williams stretch play, he can 402 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:54,919 Speaker 3: come up the field and be in a position to 403 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 3: defend demand on the boot play. So taking the boot 404 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:02,399 Speaker 3: play out was a factor. They they they double covered 405 00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:05,640 Speaker 3: Boston in the red zone. A lot of people are saying, well, 406 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,679 Speaker 3: that was that was a poor job of getting the 407 00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 3: ball to Boston in the red zone. Hey look, if 408 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:15,120 Speaker 3: they're gonna if they're gonna bracket him down there, There's 409 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:20,000 Speaker 3: there's very few plays that are actually bracket busters. What 410 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:22,160 Speaker 3: you want to do is then find the one on 411 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:25,600 Speaker 3: ones and have good uh concepts in the one on ones. 412 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 3: And I think dead Fish was kind of uh you know, 413 00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:32,360 Speaker 3: but I think he got out coached. He certainly got 414 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:34,560 Speaker 3: out coached in the red zone by Matt Patricia. So 415 00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:37,439 Speaker 3: we'll see if if the Wolverines learned anything on that. 416 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:41,320 Speaker 2: Well, look, I mean you were You're talking to a 417 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:44,800 Speaker 2: CBS Player of the game here, Dicky after the eighty 418 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 2: four game against Michigan, when Hugh Millan took the number 419 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:50,679 Speaker 2: two ranked Huskies into Michigan stadium right and knocked out 420 00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:53,720 Speaker 2: they were Michigan was number two, they were too. Sorry, yes, correct, 421 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:55,560 Speaker 2: correct by fault. But you wore the player of the game. 422 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 2: Do I have that right, CBS? 423 00:21:57,440 --> 00:21:57,640 Speaker 1: Yeah. 424 00:21:57,680 --> 00:21:59,879 Speaker 3: I still got a plaque somewhere before that. 425 00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:03,000 Speaker 2: Nice, nice, nice, Well, I would like to see it 426 00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:06,360 Speaker 2: one day, just to behold and get to uh get 427 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 2: to uh just you know, massage something so great. But uh, 428 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:12,000 Speaker 2: you've been a Michigan fan for a long time, obviously, 429 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:13,399 Speaker 2: way before you were in a Husky fan. 430 00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:15,480 Speaker 1: I think you're a Michigan fan, and I don't know. 431 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:17,480 Speaker 2: I mean this, this just feels like a game where 432 00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:19,960 Speaker 2: if the Huskies can win it, they're six and one, 433 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:23,639 Speaker 2: they're ranked, then they've got UCLA perdue Wisconsin left on 434 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 2: the schedule. I don't know if you guys are watching 435 00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:29,160 Speaker 2: what's happening with with Wisconsin, but Badger fans want Luke 436 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 2: Fickles head on a freaking stick right now after the way. 437 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:33,320 Speaker 3: It's terrible. 438 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 2: Honestly, it's brutal in Madison. So that's a game they 439 00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:40,280 Speaker 2: should win. Ucla looks a little bit different now clearly 440 00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:42,159 Speaker 2: than it did. He should still beat a couple of 441 00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 2: weeks ago. But you still should win all those. As 442 00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:46,440 Speaker 2: you've said, Dick and Hugh, you know this weird thing's 443 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 2: happened at the Rose Bowl, especially when you're playing for 444 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:49,760 Speaker 2: an a ten thousand people. 445 00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 1: So I mean, this game kind of guys. 446 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:54,960 Speaker 2: Doesn't you feel like the difference between maybe a seven 447 00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:56,920 Speaker 2: or eight win team and maybe even a nine or 448 00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:57,720 Speaker 2: ten win team. 449 00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:01,119 Speaker 3: Well, I think Washington's got a pass to the playoffs, 450 00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:05,680 Speaker 3: and I think that all their games are winnable. I mean, 451 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:12,200 Speaker 3: I think Oregon's quarterback looked non competitive. I was shocked 452 00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 3: at how poor they looked, and so you get them 453 00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:21,119 Speaker 3: in Seattle. I think Oregon's beatable. Certainly, Michigan's beatable. In 454 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:24,240 Speaker 3: the environment we're talking about. There are eight teams in 455 00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:28,120 Speaker 3: the Big Ten that are two and one, and an 456 00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:31,359 Speaker 3: additional one in USC that's three and one. So you 457 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 3: got nine teams with one loss in the conference, and 458 00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:38,080 Speaker 3: then the two undefeateds with Ohio State in Indiana, so 459 00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:41,920 Speaker 3: it is so wide open, and you know there's a path. 460 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 3: I mean, obviously the Huskies benefit from not playing Indiana. 461 00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:47,800 Speaker 3: You would have said they benefit from not playing Penn State. 462 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 3: But the Knitton lines a zero and three. But of course, 463 00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:55,240 Speaker 3: you know that's a representative schedule. They got to play 464 00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:56,840 Speaker 3: Afe State, they got to play Michigan, they got to 465 00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:59,399 Speaker 3: play Oregon. They're playing enough of the big boys that 466 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:02,120 Speaker 3: you you know, Nebraska is one of those one lost 467 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:04,280 Speaker 3: teams that Iowa and you know a lot of those 468 00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:07,800 Speaker 3: one lost teams you're not playing right. And maybe UCLA's 469 00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 3: a fraud in that regard. But I really, honestly I 470 00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:14,600 Speaker 3: think that that Washington they play to their capability, that 471 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,159 Speaker 3: they could get really hot and they could be a 472 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:19,040 Speaker 3: legitimate contender for the playoffs. 473 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:21,840 Speaker 4: Hugh, I didn't get a chance to. I ask one 474 00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:23,760 Speaker 4: more Seahawk questions. I'm gonna do it right here before 475 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:25,760 Speaker 4: we let you go. If you would have told me 476 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:29,520 Speaker 4: through six games that the Seahawks are twenty seventh in 477 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:33,280 Speaker 4: yards per carry and twenty third in yards rushing per game, 478 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:35,920 Speaker 4: I would have told you we're probably two and four 479 00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:39,880 Speaker 4: and not four and two. So what do they need 480 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:43,639 Speaker 4: to do to improve that? And why are they still 481 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:47,920 Speaker 4: able to win despite doing something that they've always seemingly 482 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:50,920 Speaker 4: had to do to win well. 483 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:54,159 Speaker 3: First of all, the whole outside zone, the celebrated outside 484 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:56,639 Speaker 3: don't and we spent a lot of time discussing since 485 00:24:56,840 --> 00:25:01,480 Speaker 3: Clint Kubiak was acquired. I mean, that's been almost a 486 00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:04,040 Speaker 3: nothing burger. You know, I was just watching the tape 487 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:07,359 Speaker 3: before coming on with you guys and and Canine and 488 00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:10,200 Speaker 3: and uh, you know, the stress the stress play is 489 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:13,439 Speaker 3: just so inconsistent and when it when it fails, it 490 00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:17,120 Speaker 3: really it really gets bottled up out there on the edge. 491 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:21,879 Speaker 3: So I can't say I'm terribly surprised, but you know, 492 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,639 Speaker 3: certainly I would have predicted that they would have a 493 00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:28,359 Speaker 3: little bit more out of the running game. But I 494 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:30,800 Speaker 3: think that they've made up for it with Sam Darnold 495 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:36,119 Speaker 3: just playing at a an extremely elite level. This is 496 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 3: the best quarterbacking we've seen in a long time, for uh, 497 00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 3: for the Seahawks, and in my opinion, I think he's 498 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:46,320 Speaker 3: surpassing anything Geno Smith ever did at any time as 499 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 3: a Seahawks. You have to go back to the very 500 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:51,920 Speaker 3: very best time. Now you know, we're only six games 501 00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:54,680 Speaker 3: into this, so there's a lot of things that Wheels 502 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:57,600 Speaker 3: can wobble. I understand that, but for now, six games 503 00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:02,399 Speaker 3: into this, only the best years of Russ, a couple 504 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:05,000 Speaker 3: of the best years, and maybe the best year from Hasselback. 505 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 3: You're talking, you know, six weeks into this, this is 506 00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:10,480 Speaker 3: a top three, four five performance we've seen by a 507 00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 3: quarterback in se OK. 508 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:13,840 Speaker 2: History in my opinion, Hey, Hugh, I know we're late 509 00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:15,320 Speaker 2: for a break, but I do got to get a 510 00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 2: quick thought from you and all the firings this weekend 511 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:21,359 Speaker 2: in college football. James Franklin out, Jonathan Smith out, Trent 512 00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:24,600 Speaker 2: Bray out. We told you about Michigan fans hammering more. 513 00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:28,080 Speaker 2: Wisconsin fans are going just killing Luke Fickle right now. 514 00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:30,640 Speaker 2: At Wisconsin, I saw a bunch of people that were 515 00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:34,280 Speaker 2: just videotaping themselves leaving before they do their famous jump 516 00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:37,720 Speaker 2: around thing at the stadium on Saturday, which. 517 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:40,119 Speaker 1: Is almost a cardinal sin to leave before that. 518 00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:44,480 Speaker 2: It's amazing how much money guys is getting tossed around 519 00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 2: in buyouts just so these programs can fire coaches in 520 00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:52,440 Speaker 2: the middle of the year. UCLA has already fired their coach, 521 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:55,840 Speaker 2: so what'd you make of the black Sunday in college 522 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:56,760 Speaker 2: football yesterday? 523 00:26:57,119 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 3: I think there's a feeling that you don't want to 524 00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:02,439 Speaker 3: get left behind like a Penn State would, for example, 525 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:05,400 Speaker 3: would say, hey, we've got the juice of our our name. 526 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:07,879 Speaker 3: You know, there's a brand Penn State, Nitney Lions is 527 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:10,960 Speaker 3: a brand unquestionably right, and they don't want to let 528 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:14,760 Speaker 3: it get away. And and things change fast enough that 529 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:16,840 Speaker 3: you feel like, hey, we get the right guy, and 530 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:18,880 Speaker 3: you can you can switch it around in a year 531 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:21,639 Speaker 3: with the new UH, with the new rules with n 532 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:24,240 Speaker 3: I L and the transfer portal and whatnot. But you know, 533 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:28,399 Speaker 3: I think another component that that has me as a 534 00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:33,000 Speaker 3: Husky at least somewhat intrigued is is UH. Is there 535 00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:37,920 Speaker 3: a discussion that Jetfish has any interest in those jobs? 536 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:41,720 Speaker 3: And do any of those jobs and and their their 537 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 3: principles involved in those programs? Are they interested in and 538 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:48,800 Speaker 3: do they have Jeff Jetfish as a candidate. You know, 539 00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:52,840 Speaker 3: whether or not he is UH may or may not 540 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:55,400 Speaker 3: be true. But in his state of mind, if he 541 00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:58,119 Speaker 3: believes he is or he wants to be right, this 542 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:00,639 Speaker 3: guy that that has a lot of stickers on suitcase 543 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 3: that cannot be debated, and so I just wonder, you know, 544 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:06,919 Speaker 3: if he has any eyes, you know, for any of 545 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:08,440 Speaker 3: these spots that are opening up. 546 00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 1: Here, milling great stuff. 547 00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:13,480 Speaker 2: And we will talk this Friday, all right, buddy good 548 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:14,359 Speaker 2: work man rock and roll. 549 00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:15,320 Speaker 1: Geor Expell
