1
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:09,399
Speaker 1: It's Thursday at seven o'clock. You know what time it is.

2
00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:12,039
Speaker 1: Times for Hawks Live every Thursday right here in seventeen.

3
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:15,560
Speaker 1: He is King Seattle. I'm usually sitting here with Paul Moyer.

4
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:19,600
Speaker 1: Paul is in the desert somewhere playing golf or something.

5
00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:21,960
Speaker 1: But I got my guy, Nasa Choby If you don't

6
00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:23,880
Speaker 1: know who he is, he produces everything the Seahawks, doing

7
00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:26,439
Speaker 1: the radio pretty much during the week. We do two

8
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:29,159
Speaker 1: podcasts together. Nasa Cholby was good, man, what's going on,

9
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:30,760
Speaker 1: bump man? It feels good to be on this side

10
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 1: of the glass. This is weird, man. My guy's producing

11
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:37,120
Speaker 1: and co hosting. He's multitasking right now, something us dads

12
00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:39,159
Speaker 1: to do. That's what we do. But we got to

13
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:41,639
Speaker 1: talk about the Seahawks in this football game. The Seahawks

14
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:45,159
Speaker 1: beat the Texans thirty three to thirteen last week. There

15
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:47,880
Speaker 1: were seven for thirteen on third downs. That's to win

16
00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:50,640
Speaker 1: time of possession. They held the ball twenty six minutes

17
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:53,400
Speaker 1: to thirty three. The Texans might not sound good, but

18
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 1: that's a win right there. This defense held the Texans

19
00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 1: offensive zero points in the second half. That to a win.

20
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 1: But the biggest story come out of this whole thing

21
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:06,080
Speaker 1: was Rashad Penny. This guy had a day. He rushed

22
00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:09,000
Speaker 1: four one hundred and thirty seven yards on sixteen carries

23
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 1: and two touchdowns. The Hawks are gonna win back to

24
00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:15,120
Speaker 1: back wins first time this season, first time since Week seventeen,

25
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 1: sixteen and seventeen, and the twenty twenty season. NASI offense

26
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:20,840
Speaker 1: looks like they're turning a corner. I love it when

27
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:23,679
Speaker 1: you saw that. I mean honestly seeing Rashad Penny do

28
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:26,319
Speaker 1: it he did on Sunday. I've seen him since he

29
00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 1: was drafted in twenty eighteen. He's had to deal with

30
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:31,360
Speaker 1: so many injuries and so many unfortunate things for a

31
00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:33,360
Speaker 1: guy at that position. To see him go out there,

32
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:36,080
Speaker 1: like you said, sixteen carries, one hundred and thirty seven yards,

33
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:39,600
Speaker 1: two touchdowns, career highs in all three categories, and just

34
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 1: everything he's been through, it felt so good to see

35
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:43,680
Speaker 1: that guy shine man. And he had that confidence too,

36
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:46,039
Speaker 1: Like when we saw that first carry boom eight to

37
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:49,200
Speaker 1: ten yards, then again boom, and then on the touchdown,

38
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:51,400
Speaker 1: big boy stiff arm throws the guy to the ground.

39
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:53,840
Speaker 1: So Rashad Penny is balling out and I feel good

40
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:55,520
Speaker 1: for him because he's just taken so much heat in

41
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 1: this market, and the Seahawks drafted him for reason. We've

42
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:00,600
Speaker 1: always seen how good this guy can be at football

43
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 1: when he's healthy. Back to back games, he's been healthy,

44
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 1: so he looks like he's gonna be the Seahawks start

45
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 1: he running back going forward, so he'd love to see

46
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:08,920
Speaker 1: it bump. You're gonna see two zero out there in

47
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:10,799
Speaker 1: the backfield, and he deserves it. Man. I think this

48
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 1: is his audition. It's like, Okay, look, this is my

49
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:16,480
Speaker 1: contract year. I know decisions need to be made. I

50
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:18,919
Speaker 1: haven't been what you expected me to be over the years,

51
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:20,880
Speaker 1: but now it's his time to show the ball club

52
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 1: by look, I can get it done. I can stay healthy,

53
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:24,799
Speaker 1: and I think he's gonna have a chance against these

54
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,200
Speaker 1: Rams to kind of show what he can do. Now

55
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 1: he has to back up this performance. We can't expect

56
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:31,839
Speaker 1: him to go sixteen carries, one hundred and thirty seven

57
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:33,760
Speaker 1: yards and two touchdowns again, all right, that'd be nice.

58
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 1: He had a long or forty seven, that would be nice.

59
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,239
Speaker 1: But you just want to see consistency in the run game,

60
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:42,079
Speaker 1: and I think it's gonna start with him. What is

61
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:45,840
Speaker 1: a good backup performance for Rashot Pinning this weekend. Well,

62
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna get the rock a lot. So

63
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:51,440
Speaker 1: for me, I'm thinking around twelve to seventeen carries, around

64
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 1: sixty plus yards and probably a touchdown. And here's the

65
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:56,399
Speaker 1: thing about when Rashad Penny actually gets active and gets

66
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:59,680
Speaker 1: the football. He has four career games with ten plus carries, right,

67
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,480
Speaker 1: and here are the four games. Twelve carries one hundred

68
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:05,440
Speaker 1: and eight yards touchdown, fourteen carries one hundred and twenty

69
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,800
Speaker 1: nine yards a touchdown, fifteen carries seventy four yards a

70
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 1: touchdown been sixteen carries one hundred and thirty seven yards

71
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 1: two touchdowns. I was against Houston. That's fifty seven attempts,

72
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 1: four hundred and forty eight yards, five touchdowns, seven point

73
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 1: eight yards a carry. Bump. That's pretty dang good when

74
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 1: he's getting the football and he's getting more carries. So

75
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:25,680
Speaker 1: for me, I'm not expecting the rams are good, bump.

76
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:28,119
Speaker 1: They're seventh in the NFL's stopping the run. They're giving

77
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:30,400
Speaker 1: up about a hundred yards a game. So for me,

78
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 1: nothing crazy. It's about being effective and picking and choosing

79
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 1: your spots. And if the Seahawks can stay committed to

80
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,400
Speaker 1: the run and Rashad Penny is able to get those

81
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:41,400
Speaker 1: ten to fifteen carries around sixty to seventy yards and

82
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 1: just be effective and help with that time possession. I

83
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 1: think that's a good stuff spot for him. So what

84
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 1: you're saying, he's like our co host Compadre Turbo. He's

85
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 1: a rhythm guy. He needs at least ten carries to

86
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 1: get going. I understand that, and I think he's going

87
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 1: to get that. Now, let's shift over to the Los

88
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 1: Angeles Rams. They got a lot of stuff going on

89
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:01,400
Speaker 1: over there. COVID has shown up in Los Angeles in

90
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 1: the Rams facility. But let's focus on what they did

91
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 1: on Monday night against the Arizona Cardinals. They came out

92
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:09,480
Speaker 1: and had a day, didn't allow Cola Murray to throw

93
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 1: out one touchdown. Colin Murray had over four hundred yards,

94
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 1: his best performance when it comes to yards as a quarterback,

95
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:18,600
Speaker 1: but no touchdowns. And then offensively, Matthew Stafford had a day.

96
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 1: He showed why they spent all those first rounds and

97
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:24,280
Speaker 1: all this money on this dude and had long passes

98
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:27,040
Speaker 1: of Van Jefferson, long passes to Cooper Cup I mean,

99
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:30,240
Speaker 1: this Rams offense looks when everyone's healthy, looks dangerous, and

100
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:33,719
Speaker 1: this defense looks dangerous as well when everyone is healthy.

101
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness. First of all, all all you need you

102
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:38,320
Speaker 1: say is Aaron Donald. Yeah, that man is an absolute freak.

103
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 1: In the game started with a sack, and it was

104
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,680
Speaker 1: a sack and it was just so disrespectful. Bump that

105
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:45,880
Speaker 1: first play takes the guard throws him essentially into Colin Murray, Columur,

106
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:50,599
Speaker 1: he goes down. Aaron Donald is unbelievably talented. His record

107
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,480
Speaker 1: numbers against the Seahawks are unreal. Then he got Gray Gaines.

108
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,040
Speaker 1: Shout out to you, dub who's bawling Leonard Floyd, who

109
00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:58,600
Speaker 1: seems to have a hundred sacks every time he plays

110
00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:01,920
Speaker 1: the Seahawks. So their talent to defensively Jalen Ramsey when

111
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,279
Speaker 1: he's in there. You mentioned the COVID stuff. Jale Ramsey's

112
00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 1: still on the COVID list. So they got ballers on

113
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:08,560
Speaker 1: that side of the ball, and the Seahawks didn't have

114
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:10,680
Speaker 1: to come with it because they always play Seahawks tough.

115
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,440
Speaker 1: And it didn't matter whether it's twenty fourteen, twenty seventeen.

116
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:16,280
Speaker 1: Now the Rams are good defensively and they showed it.

117
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 1: And the Seahawks offensive line's got to come with it.

118
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 1: Aaron Donald sixteen games against the Hawks, sixteen tackles. Now

119
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,120
Speaker 1: we look at this total offense. The Rams have the

120
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 1: seventh rank total offense in the NFL. They have the

121
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:31,359
Speaker 1: twenty fourth rushing attack, the third ranked passing attack, and

122
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 1: points per game. They scored twenty eight points per game

123
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:36,360
Speaker 1: that is tied for fourth. So we can expect this

124
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:38,760
Speaker 1: secondary to be tested. We all know about the woes

125
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:42,040
Speaker 1: the Hawks have had on defense against the pass. They

126
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 1: are dead lads. So if there's a day for them

127
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:47,480
Speaker 1: to step up against Oldell Backham, against Tyler Higbye, Olde Backham,

128
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:50,680
Speaker 1: if he's available against Tyler Higby, if he's available in

129
00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:52,600
Speaker 1: Cooper Cup, has got to be this week. Pass game

130
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:55,159
Speaker 1: is gonna be crucial, you'd hope. So. I mean. The

131
00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:57,039
Speaker 1: thing about it, though, is while we're talking about this,

132
00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,360
Speaker 1: I'd be remiss if I didn't talk about the Seahawks.

133
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:01,720
Speaker 1: Also some COVID issues right now. Tyler Lockett was put

134
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:04,280
Speaker 1: on the COVID reserve list as well as Alex Collins.

135
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:05,839
Speaker 1: We don't know the status is going to be with

136
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:08,880
Speaker 1: those two heading into the weekend, probably won't know until Saturday.

137
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,760
Speaker 1: That being said, though offensively, if that's the case, DK

138
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:15,200
Speaker 1: Neckalf needs to be involved, he said, two good games

139
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:17,480
Speaker 1: against the Rams and his last two opportunities, whether he's

140
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 1: going against Jale Ramsey, whoever's in the secondary. Like you mentioned,

141
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 1: the Rams have twenty five people in the COVID reserve

142
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 1: lists right now, so it's not doing well. We'll see,

143
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:30,359
Speaker 1: we're gonna take it up till Thursday. But offensively, again Russell,

144
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:33,119
Speaker 1: DK needs to be involved. That connection needs to happen.

145
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 1: I think we're going to see some of those one

146
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 1: on one matchups, and I think they can take advantage

147
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 1: of this Rams defense because even though last year they

148
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 1: were number one and almost everything. Yeah right, so this year,

149
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,360
Speaker 1: while we know they got talent, they're not exactly where

150
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:46,400
Speaker 1: we'd expect them to be ranking wise, but we know

151
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 1: they got dudes over there in DK. The last two

152
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:50,800
Speaker 1: times they got together with the Rams, DKs had a

153
00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 1: day January twenty one, five receptions for ninety six yards,

154
00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:58,800
Speaker 1: two touchdowns. They lost in the playoffs that game. Earlier

155
00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 1: this year, five receptions ninety eight yards, two touchdowns on

156
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,200
Speaker 1: five targets, so for some reason DK gets up for

157
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:07,520
Speaker 1: this game or the Hawks do a good job of

158
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:09,920
Speaker 1: game planning for him in this game. We're looking at

159
00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 1: that matchup. If Ramsey's available first DK, if Lockett is available.

160
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 1: This is the first game I think I've ever covered

161
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,080
Speaker 1: where I'm saying if is available, and we're not talking

162
00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:22,160
Speaker 1: about injuries. We're to talk about COVID and how this

163
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:24,240
Speaker 1: is affecting the NFL. And it's not just this team,

164
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:26,520
Speaker 1: it's across the loan right now. Yeah, the Rams have

165
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:28,800
Speaker 1: almost twenty five, the Browns are in the twenties. Right,

166
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 1: you have all these teams and the Seahawks. This is

167
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:33,880
Speaker 1: the first time Gerald Everett missed a game earlier this year,

168
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 1: but with these two on the active lists of the

169
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,080
Speaker 1: Seahawks all last year the height of the pandemic had

170
00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,640
Speaker 1: no positive tests, right, So the Seahawks has been such

171
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:42,880
Speaker 1: a great job, but this is a problem throughout the league,

172
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,239
Speaker 1: and they've introduced some new protocols which will help guys

173
00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:48,040
Speaker 1: get back in the games earlier. But man, this week's

174
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:50,360
Speaker 1: gonna be tough, especially because the Browns also got twenty

175
00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 1: plus and they're playing on Saturday. So man, pay attention

176
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,200
Speaker 1: to the way reward because Saturday, just pay attention because

177
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 1: I'm hoping guys are out there. I don't have to

178
00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:59,280
Speaker 1: wait and see. All right, So real quick, we know

179
00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 1: that Rashad Any emerging has been great for this offense.

180
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 1: But there's a guy who's under center who's been improving

181
00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:07,360
Speaker 1: every week since he's been back. I'm talking about no

182
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:10,560
Speaker 1: other than Russell Wilson. He had he was seventeen for

183
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 1: twenty eight, two hundred and sixty yards and two touchdowns.

184
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:15,800
Speaker 1: Not a big game, but in efficient game for him.

185
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:17,760
Speaker 1: The Hawks need that to continue for them to keep

186
00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:19,600
Speaker 1: balling out. Yeah, Bump, real quick, what do you think?

187
00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:21,239
Speaker 1: What have you seen from him? Why is he getting

188
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 1: better the last couple of games. He's getting body, he's

189
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:26,120
Speaker 1: more confident, his mechanics are on point. I think they're

190
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:28,880
Speaker 1: giving him more options underneath, and I think he is

191
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:31,040
Speaker 1: throwing the deep ball better. The claim to fame for

192
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:33,960
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson. He throws the best deep ball in the game,

193
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 1: Tyler Lockett even DK thirty three yards over the shoulder.

194
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 1: Russell is getting back into him place, and this team's

195
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:48,560
Speaker 1: in a good place, and we're gonna find out how

196
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:50,319
Speaker 1: good of a place they're rim because we're gonna talk

197
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:55,439
Speaker 1: to Guard Gabe Jackson next on Hawk Slide. Welcome back

198
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 1: to Hawks Slide. We're here every Thursday, seven to nine

199
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 1: o'clock and now we get to talk to to Guard

200
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 1: Gabe Jackson for your Seahawks game. How are you doing, man?

201
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,319
Speaker 1: I'm doing great. Man. How you doing? Hey, We're doing good.

202
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:10,480
Speaker 1: We appreciate you taking time out of your day. Now.

203
00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:12,959
Speaker 1: You know, we always look up the bios or whatnot.

204
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 1: We've spoken before, and you're from Mississippi. I got family

205
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:18,800
Speaker 1: from Mississippi. But you were in Oakland for about six

206
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:21,240
Speaker 1: seven years. Did you ever catch on to like just

207
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:23,680
Speaker 1: the bay music? You know? Did you get into that

208
00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:25,199
Speaker 1: Mac dre and all that. Are you kind of just

209
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:29,840
Speaker 1: stuck to that dirty South music? I'd be a little

210
00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:34,120
Speaker 1: both man. I learned to appreciate the Bay Air music,

211
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,840
Speaker 1: so I listened more often than I than I used to.

212
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:40,960
Speaker 1: I feel it. Now, let's talk some football. Man. Last

213
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:44,200
Speaker 1: week gave Jackson went off man and he praised the

214
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:48,160
Speaker 1: offensive line constantly throughout his postgame meetings. What was it

215
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:50,600
Speaker 1: like for you being a starter on that offensive line?

216
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:53,680
Speaker 1: Seeing the number two, number three guy come in and

217
00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 1: just have a day. Man, It's great, you know, it's

218
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 1: greatful and about it. You know that a part of

219
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 1: our team to have great sussists. But also for a

220
00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 1: guy that you know that was injured early on that

221
00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:08,360
Speaker 1: just not really catching his break, you know, just to

222
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 1: see him succeed and for him to finally had that

223
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:15,240
Speaker 1: break through, it's very rewardless. Now, Gabe, talk to me

224
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:17,800
Speaker 1: a little bit now. You guys obviously love running the football.

225
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:20,400
Speaker 1: You dominated the football game against the Texans. How much

226
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,320
Speaker 1: pride is an offensive line do you take in the

227
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:23,960
Speaker 1: run game? And if it was up to you, would

228
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:28,640
Speaker 1: you run the ball every play? Probably? So? Probably, so,

229
00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:32,240
Speaker 1: I can't say I wouldn't. But it's good to have

230
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:36,040
Speaker 1: balance as well, you know, but as offense a lot

231
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:38,040
Speaker 1: you always take pride in that, you know, run the

232
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:41,760
Speaker 1: ball and Dan physic school. Now, a couple of weeks ago, Gabe,

233
00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:45,200
Speaker 1: the Seahawks signed Adrian Peterson. And now for me, growing up,

234
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:47,679
Speaker 1: you know, I watched a lot of Adrian Peterson football,

235
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:49,640
Speaker 1: and I'm sure you did the same as well. What

236
00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:51,600
Speaker 1: was it like to block for him that one game

237
00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:53,880
Speaker 1: against the forty nine ers Being a guy that you

238
00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:56,080
Speaker 1: watched in high school? And how much of an impact

239
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 1: did he have in that running back room as well

240
00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:02,760
Speaker 1: as that offense. It was crazy, man, Honestly, you got

241
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:06,040
Speaker 1: a guy that you know one day gonna have one

242
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:12,040
Speaker 1: of those jackets, and uh, it's motivating, and you know,

243
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:14,760
Speaker 1: it's it's it's it's it's great. You know you got

244
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 1: a guy like that that you know, a hard runners. Uh,

245
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:19,640
Speaker 1: he got a lot of history behind him from the past,

246
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:22,400
Speaker 1: and he said, it can run it. You know. We

247
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:24,280
Speaker 1: was in walk through one day and he cursed out

248
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:27,640
Speaker 1: there and he ran past, and I was like, dang,

249
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:31,040
Speaker 1: I I kind of felt the wind from sometimes running

250
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 1: through that gap like that. So he said, got some

251
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:36,320
Speaker 1: juice to him. Hey, Gay, what's it like in the

252
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:38,360
Speaker 1: huddle after a big run. One of the things I

253
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:42,080
Speaker 1: missed most about playing. It's just the interactions with your boys.

254
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:44,720
Speaker 1: If you just dominate a defensive line or a secondary

255
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:46,560
Speaker 1: you get back in the huddle and you know, you

256
00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 1: guys are feeling yourselves. Man, when this offense is going,

257
00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:51,240
Speaker 1: when the run game is going, what's the energy like

258
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:56,400
Speaker 1: in that huddle? It's crazy because when when when that's going, knowledge,

259
00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:59,600
Speaker 1: you know that everybody in the horror, everybody in that game.

260
00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:02,760
Speaker 1: You you feel it. It's like you almost in control

261
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:05,120
Speaker 1: of the game. So when you when you're like that,

262
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:07,679
Speaker 1: you can you can do play action, you can go

263
00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:10,240
Speaker 1: the balls and it doesn't matter. You know, you know

264
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:14,000
Speaker 1: you hear a full control because you were dominating. Now

265
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:15,800
Speaker 1: gave some of the young guys have got an opportunity

266
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 1: to play. Jake Kurhan gotta started right tackle. He might

267
00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:20,440
Speaker 1: play a little bit more this week. So for a

268
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,280
Speaker 1: veteran guy like yourself and Dwayne Brown on an offensive line,

269
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:25,240
Speaker 1: what you see from him and what a kind of

270
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:26,920
Speaker 1: the tips did you help some of these younger guys

271
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:28,679
Speaker 1: when they get their first time in the game like that?

272
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,800
Speaker 1: For one, I mean I told him Jake, you know

273
00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:37,480
Speaker 1: he first got there as a couple of weeks. Um,

274
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:39,439
Speaker 1: he was in shorts and I was like, okay. He

275
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,080
Speaker 1: was like, he might be good. Didn't put pants on.

276
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:44,160
Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, he might be good. Then I saw

277
00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:46,040
Speaker 1: him a preseason but don't can ye he he a

278
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:49,800
Speaker 1: ball But from just me knowing him from this short

279
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:52,959
Speaker 1: period of time, he has great confidence in himself. You know,

280
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 1: he's a hard worker. Um, he listened, he listened to coaching,

281
00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:59,840
Speaker 1: he listened in the coaching point that a player might give,

282
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:03,040
Speaker 1: but for me it was to him just like, just

283
00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:04,679
Speaker 1: be who you are. You here for a reason. It

284
00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:07,480
Speaker 1: wasn't no mistake that you feel here to be a

285
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:10,439
Speaker 1: you know, a seahawk and just take full advantage and

286
00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:13,120
Speaker 1: half fun because you know, just games is here, but

287
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:15,240
Speaker 1: it'll be a fama, but it won't be first for us,

288
00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:17,719
Speaker 1: So just take full advantage of and have fun. Just

289
00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:21,120
Speaker 1: me of life. Gabe as an analyst, man, we dive

290
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,080
Speaker 1: into the numbers, like we got six days to talk

291
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:26,839
Speaker 1: about this matchup and think about this matchup and kind

292
00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:28,800
Speaker 1: of see where Okay, the Rams are good at this,

293
00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:30,960
Speaker 1: the Hawks are good at that. Do you guys get

294
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:32,520
Speaker 1: into the numbers or do you kind of just look

295
00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:35,040
Speaker 1: at the film and say, all right, this is the situation.

296
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:39,040
Speaker 1: I gotta beat my guy on this plane. I mean,

297
00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:43,040
Speaker 1: it's not always numbers within the game, but you also

298
00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:46,160
Speaker 1: gotta know, you know what you see on films. You know,

299
00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,920
Speaker 1: sometimes the numbers can be a little off based off

300
00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:52,599
Speaker 1: of what time of the game there was, it's a

301
00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:56,599
Speaker 1: blowout or this and that, but um, you gotta you

302
00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:58,640
Speaker 1: gotta watch them, you gotta watch the suit they're good

303
00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:01,920
Speaker 1: at um, you know we're good at was was there

304
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:05,520
Speaker 1: liability to take a better jo? Now while we're talking

305
00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 1: about numbers, Gay, let's talk about number three Russell Wilson.

306
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:10,320
Speaker 1: He's obviously playing some really good football as of late.

307
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:12,320
Speaker 1: He had the finger injury, broke his finger. You guys

308
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:14,839
Speaker 1: were without him for a while. What kind of lift

309
00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,400
Speaker 1: did he bring back to this offensive unit? And how

310
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:19,080
Speaker 1: have you guys been able to get into a rhythm

311
00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 1: while Russell Wilson under center and he's uh to me

312
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:27,440
Speaker 1: us he's a great leader. Um with a great guy

313
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:33,040
Speaker 1: let's to talk to. But he definitely his leadership, his

314
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,680
Speaker 1: president step. You know he I don't know if he's

315
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,920
Speaker 1: intentional his being, but he's always comes to the minding,

316
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:41,680
Speaker 1: hands and seat, do this, and do this and do this,

317
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:45,520
Speaker 1: like throughout the huddle like he's always giving us something

318
00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:47,920
Speaker 1: and is he not saying this? And you can feel

319
00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:50,920
Speaker 1: it through his playing, through his eye contact, his his

320
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:55,200
Speaker 1: just his confidence. You know, he's order so um, it's

321
00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:57,520
Speaker 1: always a boost. He got a guy this going and

322
00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:00,840
Speaker 1: you gonna give your thing he got Gabe. You guys

323
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,000
Speaker 1: are playing some good football right now. The offense is

324
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:05,520
Speaker 1: click and run game. Is going Tyler Locke and make

325
00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:08,160
Speaker 1: some plays. Last week, this defense shut out the Texans

326
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 1: in the second half. Needless to say, this is a

327
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 1: confident football team right now. Oh yeah, I mean I

328
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:19,640
Speaker 1: want to say that we haven't been company in the past,

329
00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:23,600
Speaker 1: but I feel like everything is falling into orders. You know,

330
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:28,040
Speaker 1: some things going our way, and I mean defense, those

331
00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:32,640
Speaker 1: guys are lights out. They're making plays and we played

332
00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:36,560
Speaker 1: the good companyment of football last week and the before

333
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 1: Dan Blue was doing the same thing. So we just

334
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:43,440
Speaker 1: gotta keep getting off of it and just keep jumping away. Now, Gabe,

335
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:46,120
Speaker 1: you talked about that. What what's really changed? You said,

336
00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:47,760
Speaker 1: you guys are playing some good footballs of late, a

337
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:49,800
Speaker 1: little bit more confidence as of late. How did you

338
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:52,280
Speaker 1: guys keep going when things the season wasn't going your way? Right?

339
00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:54,200
Speaker 1: The Seahawks were three and eight at one point, and

340
00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 1: now you guys are finding yourself trying to get back

341
00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:58,440
Speaker 1: in the playoff picture. How did you guys stick together

342
00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:00,760
Speaker 1: as a unit to event get to this point where

343
00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:02,720
Speaker 1: you're building confidence and have the potential they're going to

344
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:06,160
Speaker 1: run here the end of the year. One day at

345
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 1: a time and one player at a time. You can't

346
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:09,800
Speaker 1: get to the next play without taking care of the

347
00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:13,160
Speaker 1: ones you act right there, So just living in that moment,

348
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:16,800
Speaker 1: just being right and just keep talking away. Sometimes it

349
00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:19,640
Speaker 1: might not go white, it might not feel right. You know,

350
00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:24,160
Speaker 1: it's football and it's life. But just believe. And I

351
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:28,000
Speaker 1: feel like we all believe in each other. And you know,

352
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:30,120
Speaker 1: who knows how fun we can go. Just gotta keep

353
00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:32,680
Speaker 1: going and keep chucking it. I gave. But I know

354
00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:36,360
Speaker 1: you're from Mississippi, spent some time in Oakland. Now you're

355
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:39,280
Speaker 1: in the Northwest. How are you dealing with this short days?

356
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:41,800
Speaker 1: It gets dark around four thirty and now it's cold

357
00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:43,400
Speaker 1: and wet all year? How are you dealing with all that?

358
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 1: I mean, honestly, I'm at home about it, so like

359
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:49,120
Speaker 1: I don't be out and about like that in no way,

360
00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:52,960
Speaker 1: so it don't bother me. I look at as a plus,

361
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,040
Speaker 1: you know, especially it's trying to take a napt while

362
00:16:55,600 --> 00:17:00,440
Speaker 1: those through that night. It's Chris Black, so it's a bonus.

363
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:03,000
Speaker 1: And they have me give us some recovery. Here there

364
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 1: we go, sleep recovery. You gotta tell these junctions, man,

365
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 1: they'd be up all night on their phones. They gotta

366
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:10,680
Speaker 1: get to sleep, get that recovery. Gabe, Man, we appreciate

367
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:12,480
Speaker 1: you taking time out of your night. Let's have a

368
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:16,359
Speaker 1: good one this weekend. Thank you all. All right? That

369
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:20,160
Speaker 1: was Gabe Jackson, guard for the Seattle Seahawks. When we return,

370
00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:22,639
Speaker 1: we'll take a deeper look at the Rams. I'm here

371
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:26,000
Speaker 1: with Nasa Choby right on Hawks Lot. Welcome to Hawkslive.

372
00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:28,880
Speaker 1: I'm Michael Bumpus with Nasa Choby. It's time to take

373
00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:32,959
Speaker 1: a deeper look into these Los Angeles Rams. There's one

374
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:36,960
Speaker 1: thing about these Rams, man. They started the season hot man.

375
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:39,520
Speaker 1: They beat the Bears, the Colts, the Bucks. Then they

376
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:42,360
Speaker 1: lose to the Cardinals thirty seven twenty. Then they beat

377
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:45,440
Speaker 1: the Seahawks, the Giants, the Lions of Texas, lose three

378
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:48,119
Speaker 1: in a row, then bounce back and they beat the

379
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:51,320
Speaker 1: Jacksonville Jaguars, and on Monday Night Football they beat the

380
00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:54,320
Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals. Now that's just the surface. We gotta get

381
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 1: deeper into this football team and talk about some of

382
00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 1: these matches we're looking forward to seeing and Choby, the

383
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:01,520
Speaker 1: one matchup I'm looking to see, and it's not even

384
00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:06,080
Speaker 1: one matchups, multiple matchups, is their receivers Verse Hour Secondary

385
00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:08,960
Speaker 1: led by Cooper Cup. Cooper Cups having one of the

386
00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:11,520
Speaker 1: best seasons in NFL history. Of four games left to go,

387
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 1: this guy has one hundred and thirteen receptions, fourteen hundred

388
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:18,280
Speaker 1: and eighty nine yards and twelve touchdowns. He does about everything,

389
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:20,959
Speaker 1: but it's not just him. Van Jefferson has forty one

390
00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:23,960
Speaker 1: receptions for six hundred and seventy nine yards and six touchdowns.

391
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:27,760
Speaker 1: Ob J has fifteen receptions for two or four three touchdowns,

392
00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:31,479
Speaker 1: has one touchdown in each of the last three games.

393
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:34,919
Speaker 1: You got Old Dale, you got Cooper Cup, you got

394
00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:37,680
Speaker 1: Van Jefferson. This is just to take me up top

395
00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:39,800
Speaker 1: group we're looking at well. First of all, shout out

396
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:43,240
Speaker 1: to Cooper Cup. Obviously we know eastern Washington from Yakima,

397
00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:45,920
Speaker 1: Obviously Washington, shout out there. But he's having one of

398
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:48,280
Speaker 1: the best seasons in NFL history. He's not just having

399
00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:50,920
Speaker 1: a good year, he's having one of the best seasons

400
00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:54,520
Speaker 1: ever for a wide receiver. He leads the league in receptions,

401
00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:56,920
Speaker 1: he leads the league in yards, he leads the league

402
00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:59,680
Speaker 1: in touchdowns. Okay, Cup is the first player in NFL

403
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,040
Speaker 1: hist to do that through the first three thirteen games

404
00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:04,879
Speaker 1: the year, and then also he's had. If he reaches

405
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:07,800
Speaker 1: ninety receiving yards against Seattle on Sunday, he will become

406
00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:10,560
Speaker 1: the first player ever to record at least ninety receiving

407
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:13,400
Speaker 1: yards in ten consecutive games in the Super Bowl era.

408
00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:16,240
Speaker 1: So the boy's doing it. So he's all right, he's

409
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:18,920
Speaker 1: all right, He's okay. When you're on list with Jerry Rice,

410
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:21,919
Speaker 1: Michael Irvin, Shanna Sharpe, you're doing it. And the thing

411
00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 1: about him, Bump, you would know better than I would

412
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:26,680
Speaker 1: as a receiver when you just watch him. He's a technician.

413
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:29,320
Speaker 1: He can legitimately do it all. He can beach over

414
00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:32,159
Speaker 1: the top, intermediate, short, he has great hands in the

415
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:35,200
Speaker 1: way the connection he had with Matt staffords so quickly.

416
00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:37,879
Speaker 1: I mean, Cooper cup is a boss. And for me, honestly,

417
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:41,440
Speaker 1: this weekend with the Seahawks, if he has under ninety yards,

418
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:43,440
Speaker 1: that is a huge win. Signed me up for that

419
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:47,600
Speaker 1: all day long. Yeah, he's gonna get eleven to twelve targets.

420
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:49,880
Speaker 1: You hold him under ninety, you're gonna be good. Van

421
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:53,160
Speaker 1: Jefferson is a guy that's kind of been a surprise man.

422
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:56,320
Speaker 1: Actually a funny story. You probably know his dad as

423
00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:58,959
Speaker 1: a receiver, coach Arizona Cardinals. He saw him catch a touchdown.

424
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:01,160
Speaker 1: His dad's going nut. That's over there on the sideline,

425
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:04,000
Speaker 1: just Madden. But you know, Jefferson is a guy who

426
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 1: can take you up top as well. And when you

427
00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:09,280
Speaker 1: have multiple weapons, right, you got Cooper, you got Van Jefferson,

428
00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:12,480
Speaker 1: Oldell Beckham. That's gotta be nice for Matt Stafford. He's

429
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:14,840
Speaker 1: never had this mini weapons. He might have had one

430
00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:17,560
Speaker 1: of the greatest weapons of all time in Megatron Calvin,

431
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:21,080
Speaker 1: but he's never had this mini weapons to go to

432
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,480
Speaker 1: and he's found his way out of that slump. It

433
00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:27,600
Speaker 1: seems like he's in a groove right now. What tells

434
00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:29,720
Speaker 1: me he's in that groove is that touchdown of Cooper

435
00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:32,520
Speaker 1: Cup he threw it. It's a corner of the end zone.

436
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:34,840
Speaker 1: The only place Cooper come down with it. The dB

437
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:38,480
Speaker 1: for Arizona had outstanding perfect covers on the play. Somehow

438
00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 1: he threats and Needle gets it through there. He's playing

439
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:43,720
Speaker 1: at all time high confidence level. He's finally with a

440
00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:47,560
Speaker 1: head coach. That's good. You know what I'm saying, no

441
00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:50,200
Speaker 1: disrespect hole, I should back up. Cadwell is a good coach. Yeah,

442
00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:53,280
Speaker 1: Caldwell is a good coach. The coaches after him struggled

443
00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:55,439
Speaker 1: when Stafford was there, but he's finally with Sean mcvayh

444
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:57,760
Speaker 1: he's finally with an offense that can be explosive. So

445
00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:00,440
Speaker 1: this receiving store scares me. And while Weart's talking about

446
00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:02,440
Speaker 1: the receivers bump, this is one of the biggest keys

447
00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:05,600
Speaker 1: of the game for me. It's explosive plays. Yea. The

448
00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:09,399
Speaker 1: Seahawks allowed ten passes that went over fifteen yards against

449
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:12,840
Speaker 1: the Rams. A sixteen yard reception, a seventeen yard reception, seventeen,

450
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:16,920
Speaker 1: twenty five, sixty eight, twenty twenty, twenty three, twenty four,

451
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:19,359
Speaker 1: thirty three. And this is what that's what killed them

452
00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:22,119
Speaker 1: the last game. It was all these explosive plays. And

453
00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:23,679
Speaker 1: that's the one thing the Seahawks can't have because if

454
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:25,679
Speaker 1: you had that many explosive plays, you're not gonna keep

455
00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:27,800
Speaker 1: off the scoreboard. So that's the number one job of

456
00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:30,960
Speaker 1: this defense is to eliminate the explosives, destroy him and

457
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,280
Speaker 1: you have a chance. And half of those explosive plays

458
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,240
Speaker 1: came on the same play we broke it down on

459
00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:39,800
Speaker 1: our Hawk Talk preview edition and they get into three

460
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:41,639
Speaker 1: by one are just a trip set, it could betray.

461
00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:43,920
Speaker 1: They do have a multiple position, just three receivers to

462
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,320
Speaker 1: the right of the left side. One guy hooks it up,

463
00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:48,600
Speaker 1: another guy runs a deep cross, another guy runs like

464
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:50,399
Speaker 1: a post. And what they do is they put the

465
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:52,639
Speaker 1: flat defender into buying are you gonna jump on the

466
00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:54,080
Speaker 1: hook in front of you? Are you gonna run with

467
00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:58,200
Speaker 1: the deep cross? And for some reason the Seahawks couldn't

468
00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:00,119
Speaker 1: figure it out. Now, I think you told me that

469
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:02,359
Speaker 1: b Wags was saying that they ran it at a

470
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:04,800
Speaker 1: different depth. So now we're in what a week are

471
00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:07,760
Speaker 1: we in? Right now? We are in week fifteen? Week fifteen?

472
00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:11,040
Speaker 1: All right, So now there's so many opportunities to watch film.

473
00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:14,040
Speaker 1: Do you expect them to play that route combination better

474
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:16,200
Speaker 1: than they have in the past? I absolutely do. And

475
00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:18,240
Speaker 1: the thing about it, so I'm gonna get some Bobby

476
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:21,360
Speaker 1: sound like you mentioned. I absolutely think they're gonna play

477
00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:23,320
Speaker 1: it better. But let's go back and listen to Bobby

478
00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:25,359
Speaker 1: Wagner and how to stop those deep crossing routes. We

479
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 1: have to play with some depth. I think that's the

480
00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:31,040
Speaker 1: biggest thing. I think you know, with some of their

481
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:33,920
Speaker 1: routes that they were running up until that point on film,

482
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:37,560
Speaker 1: they weren't running it as deep as they ran it

483
00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:39,840
Speaker 1: in our game, and so we have to be conscious

484
00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:43,720
Speaker 1: of those particular routes and you know, make sure we

485
00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:46,000
Speaker 1: play a little bit deeper this game, but also be

486
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:49,240
Speaker 1: ready to come down and rally to the past, because

487
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:52,639
Speaker 1: you know, do a good job of taking what you

488
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:54,280
Speaker 1: give them. If you jump the short one, they'll throw

489
00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:55,840
Speaker 1: it over your head. If you stay back, they'll take

490
00:22:55,920 --> 00:23:00,399
Speaker 1: the five to seven yard game. And so one of

491
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:03,400
Speaker 1: those games where you're just gonna have to be patient

492
00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:06,280
Speaker 1: and you're gonna have to just keep maga tackle, keep

493
00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:09,640
Speaker 1: mega tackles, then capitalize when they make a mistake. I think,

494
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:10,880
Speaker 1: first of all, I think you just got to tip

495
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:13,960
Speaker 1: your cat to the Rams, because they just they scheme

496
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:16,160
Speaker 1: the Seahawks a little bit right. They are running those

497
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,280
Speaker 1: same routes, that exact same concept out of the trips

498
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:20,880
Speaker 1: at a shorter depth, and with the Seahawks looked at film,

499
00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:22,320
Speaker 1: They're doing it all week and then all of a sudden,

500
00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:24,679
Speaker 1: the Rams boom. Now that dig that was seven or eight,

501
00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:27,480
Speaker 1: it's fifteen, seventeen, twenty yards down. So I think the

502
00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:29,720
Speaker 1: Seahawks were in the film room obviously Ken Norton rest

503
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,120
Speaker 1: that defensive staff. I think they have to adjust because

504
00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:34,400
Speaker 1: the Rams went to this about seven times that first game,

505
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:36,639
Speaker 1: a couple of times on back to back plays, and

506
00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:38,359
Speaker 1: they caught the Seahawks in a couple of blitz is.

507
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,120
Speaker 1: One time Bab Bobby Wagner was blitzing or Jordan Brooks

508
00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:43,600
Speaker 1: was blitzing. So the remaining linebacker turn and ran with

509
00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:45,840
Speaker 1: that over route. So I think they're gonna They're gonna

510
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:48,440
Speaker 1: scheme it up differently. I'd look to see Ugo Amadi

511
00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:51,440
Speaker 1: and some of the backers making plays and I'm saying

512
00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:53,480
Speaker 1: this hoping because if they don't, it's gonna be a

513
00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:55,840
Speaker 1: long day. Yeah, it could be a long day. Man.

514
00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:57,959
Speaker 1: The Rams are in the groove right now. And as

515
00:23:58,040 --> 00:23:59,880
Speaker 1: Paul Moyers said, you rather play a team that's coming

516
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:03,120
Speaker 1: off a loss than a win, but you play who

517
00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:06,560
Speaker 1: you got to play. Now. I look at this Rams

518
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:11,119
Speaker 1: offense and I say to myself, Hawks could do that.

519
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:14,040
Speaker 1: The Hawks can do that. That's what we were expecting, honestly,

520
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:16,159
Speaker 1: getting Shane Waldon over here and seeing some of the

521
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:18,879
Speaker 1: same things. But I think that the Hawks are starting

522
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:20,879
Speaker 1: to do some things that way. I think that Shane

523
00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:24,720
Speaker 1: didn't have his offensive line intact. He loses d Esker

524
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:26,440
Speaker 1: as the guy that he was counting on to help

525
00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:28,640
Speaker 1: out a lot. I mean lose Everett four a game.

526
00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:32,040
Speaker 1: We're finally the run game hasn't been gone. Run game

527
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 1: is huge in what they like to do. You watch

528
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:36,639
Speaker 1: Matthew Matthew Stafford when he does his play fake, he

529
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:39,520
Speaker 1: reminds me of paid manny Man. He shows that football

530
00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:42,280
Speaker 1: on the stretch, he tugs it, he boots around. I

531
00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:44,040
Speaker 1: think those were the type of things that we were

532
00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:47,119
Speaker 1: hoping to see that we're starting to see now. So

533
00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:49,280
Speaker 1: I can't wait to watch the film when this game

534
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:51,000
Speaker 1: is all said and done. Hope of the Hawks gonna

535
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:53,119
Speaker 1: win and I can compare like the kind of the

536
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:55,680
Speaker 1: styles I have the Hawks. Excuse me the rams Chane

537
00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:58,320
Speaker 1: so much since Shane has left. Well, and the thing

538
00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:00,920
Speaker 1: about Shane, right, he's had a tough job. You mentioned

539
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:03,479
Speaker 1: all those factors that were against him. Here's the biggest

540
00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:05,960
Speaker 1: factor to me with Shane and having success on offense.

541
00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:09,000
Speaker 1: The Seahawks have only ran sixty plays in a game

542
00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:12,240
Speaker 1: three times this entire season. You want to look like

543
00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:15,320
Speaker 1: for the defensive side, the Seahawks have allowed over sixty

544
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:20,680
Speaker 1: plays defensively one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten,

545
00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:24,679
Speaker 1: eleven twelve of the games. So obviously it's the play discrepancy, right.

546
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:26,359
Speaker 1: The defense is on the field the whole game. So

547
00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:28,840
Speaker 1: as an offensive coordinator, you call players you've done this.

548
00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:31,440
Speaker 1: It's really hard to get into a rhythm and do

549
00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:34,120
Speaker 1: things when you're only running fifty five plays in a game,

550
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:36,480
Speaker 1: or when you're two of twelve on third down. So

551
00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:40,280
Speaker 1: I think what we're seeing is they're finally elongating some drives.

552
00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:42,360
Speaker 1: They're staying on the football field, and like you said,

553
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:45,119
Speaker 1: we're starting to see little, you know, sprinkles of what

554
00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:47,680
Speaker 1: this Shane Waldron offense could be. And once again we're

555
00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:49,080
Speaker 1: going to see a team for the second week in

556
00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:51,080
Speaker 1: a row that takes the football out the air. The

557
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,879
Speaker 1: Rams have fourteen interceptions to the Hawks seven. It was

558
00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:56,479
Speaker 1: pretty much the same last week against the Houston Texans

559
00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:59,320
Speaker 1: seven to fourteen. They got some guys on the second ary.

560
00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:02,200
Speaker 1: They got Tyler app you up, big ups Jalen Ramsey

561
00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:04,840
Speaker 1: if he's available. Because of the pressure that they can

562
00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:07,679
Speaker 1: cause on that defensive line with aer Donnad, with Leonard Floyd,

563
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:11,280
Speaker 1: they cause quarterback to make poor decisions. That's one thing

564
00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:13,880
Speaker 1: Russ hasn't been doing. He hasn't been making poor decisions.

565
00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:15,680
Speaker 1: Russ's has to do what he's been doing the last

566
00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:18,159
Speaker 1: few weeks, no question about it. He's been efficient. And

567
00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:20,560
Speaker 1: what the best part about last week is that deep

568
00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:22,800
Speaker 1: ball came back. We mentioned it. There's not a living

569
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,479
Speaker 1: human walking this planet Earth that has a better deep

570
00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:28,600
Speaker 1: ball than Russell Wilson. That's fact that is. I won't

571
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:31,560
Speaker 1: I won't hear anybody here, fact right, And we got

572
00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:33,879
Speaker 1: to see that again. We got to see connecting with

573
00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:36,159
Speaker 1: tyr lockin other guys on the football field. And the

574
00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:38,560
Speaker 1: two weeks before that, we didn't really see that touch

575
00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:40,680
Speaker 1: right because his finger wasn't all the way healthy and

576
00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:43,000
Speaker 1: he was getting back he hadn't played football for a month.

577
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:44,960
Speaker 1: And then we're like, dang, this is how other people

578
00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:47,560
Speaker 1: feel all year long. And then back to Sunday, the

579
00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:49,400
Speaker 1: last two weeks, we see the rust we've always known

580
00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:52,399
Speaker 1: and loved, so bump, I mean, I can't wait. I

581
00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:54,120
Speaker 1: feel like he's getting to that point and he's gonna

582
00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:56,000
Speaker 1: take us on a run and people are going to

583
00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:57,640
Speaker 1: feel a certain type of way about the things they've

584
00:26:57,640 --> 00:26:59,480
Speaker 1: been saying about this team all year long. It feels

585
00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:01,439
Speaker 1: like the Hall are getting back in the groove. If

586
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:04,359
Speaker 1: they can win this football game, if they can beat

587
00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:07,680
Speaker 1: the Los Angeles Rams, they can go on a run

588
00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:09,960
Speaker 1: right here after the Rams that have the Bears. We

589
00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:12,600
Speaker 1: assume they win that they have the lines. They better

590
00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:15,320
Speaker 1: win that, and you finish the season off at the

591
00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:18,040
Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals. This is a big game right here. You

592
00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:19,639
Speaker 1: need something to happen in front of you on the

593
00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:22,840
Speaker 1: playoff race. But they get this done and the Hawks

594
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:25,480
Speaker 1: are looking good. When we return, we'll bring in the

595
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:28,040
Speaker 1: professor John Clayton. That is next right here on Hawks Lock.

596
00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:38,359
Speaker 1: Welcome back to Hawks slid on Michael Bumps with NASA

601
00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:53,479
Speaker 1: pieces in here right now. We got NASA Chobe from

Speaker 1: behind the glass. Matt Nelson tooking some time out of

603
00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:59,080
Speaker 1: his day to help us out. So you know we're adjusting.

604
00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:03,840
Speaker 1: That's what football does. Where is everybody, John Paul is

605
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:09,000

607

610
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:31,400
Speaker 1: beginning because again, when you when you hire a pure

611
00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:34,879
Speaker 1: college coach who's never been in the NFL, he just

612
00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:38,360
Speaker 1: doesn't know. And because of the fact that he doesn't know,

613
00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:42,320
Speaker 1: he doesn't know all these different things, and urban Meyer

614
00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:45,880
Speaker 1: turns out to be the worst college coach ever hired.

615
00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:48,920
Speaker 1: Now again, we know that back in two thousand and seven,

616
00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:53,880
Speaker 1: probably Petrino was really bad. Atlanta hated him. He left

617
00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:58,200
Speaker 1: after thirteen games, three and ten to go to Arkansas.

618
00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:01,280
Speaker 1: But in case of Earth, but I mean, look at

619
00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:03,560
Speaker 1: all the things that he did so bad. I mean,

620
00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:06,600
Speaker 1: he hired here in you know, black lives matter in

621
00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 1: the NFL, and he hires an assistant coach who was

622
00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:15,800
Speaker 1: fired in college for racist comments. Okay, then of course

623
00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:21,720
Speaker 1: he treats his players like kids, you know, teenagers when

624
00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:25,320
Speaker 1: they're adults. And I know that the but the players

625
00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:30,120
Speaker 1: on Jacksonville went over and told the fout the Rams,

626
00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:33,400
Speaker 1: particularly Jalen Ramsey, that it's like, oh yeah, it's like

627
00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:37,360
Speaker 1: he treats us like kids. Then he kicks the kicker.

628
00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:40,800
Speaker 1: How do you kick a kicker and then cuss him

629
00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:43,840
Speaker 1: out and then say hey, I'm the head man, I

630
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:48,840
Speaker 1: can kick you anytime I want. So that the poor communication,

631
00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:52,640
Speaker 1: all those different things. I mean, again, I thought this

632
00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:54,920
Speaker 1: was going to be bad. It turned out to be

633
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:58,720
Speaker 1: worse than I thought. I mean, we're just remarkable, John,

634
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:00,560
Speaker 1: Is this the end of the road? Irbymyre? Do you

635
00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:02,840
Speaker 1: think he'll get a job at another Power five conference?

636
00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:05,800
Speaker 1: I think he can get a job in college if

637
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:08,880
Speaker 1: he wants to. The question is does he want to? Now?

638
00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:12,320
Speaker 1: Of course, the one thing is as lazy as he is.

639
00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 1: I mean, he's got a five year deal at seventy

640
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:19,480
Speaker 1: million dollars and so he's making twelve million dollars a year,

641
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:23,720
Speaker 1: so he may not have to work. But you know,

642
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:28,920
Speaker 1: he was the last couple of years not necessarily taking

643
00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:31,280
Speaker 1: college jobs. I mean, he can still get one because

644
00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:34,240
Speaker 1: he's a good college coach. He's just not anything that

645
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:38,560
Speaker 1: the NFL NFL should touch. Hi John, the Seattle Seahaks

646
00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:42,840
Speaker 1: beat the Texans in Texas. Have they officially turned a corner?

647
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:46,520
Speaker 1: Can we start believing again? I think so well, particularly

648
00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:48,840
Speaker 1: two at this game coming up, because I have no

649
00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:51,720
Speaker 1: idea how this thing is going to be played. I

650
00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:54,120
Speaker 1: don't know if he saw it tonight, but nine more

651
00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:57,400
Speaker 1: members of the RAMS went on the COVID list. That's

652
00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:02,400
Speaker 1: twenty five. That's half almost their roster. And I know

653
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:05,880
Speaker 1: that there's adjustments that have been made today in a

654
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:08,760
Speaker 1: standpoint that you can get guys back a lot faster

655
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:12,600
Speaker 1: because now even if they're positive, you're not chosen to.

656
00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:15,280
Speaker 1: You don't necessarily have to say that they have to

657
00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:18,880
Speaker 1: have negative tests or anything else. You're judging them on

658
00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:22,840
Speaker 1: their viral level. As their viral levels at a certain level,

659
00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:26,000
Speaker 1: then they can come back and play. That's why, for example,

660
00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:29,840
Speaker 1: you can't rule out Tyler Lockett unless he's not cleared

661
00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:34,160
Speaker 1: by Saturday, and you can't rule out Alice Collins. So

662
00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:38,080
Speaker 1: there's so much uncertainty. But twenty five guys on the

663
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:42,760
Speaker 1: RAMS list incredible. Now, John, we know the NFL has

664
00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:44,960
Speaker 1: worked really hard to make sure all these games are played.

665
00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:47,680
Speaker 1: They've even talked about that people not getting paychecks if

666
00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:51,120
Speaker 1: there's massive COVID outbreaks. Is there any worry throughout the league,

667
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,680
Speaker 1: whether it's in Cleveland with the Rams, that some games

668
00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:57,160
Speaker 1: won't get played this weekend? Of course. I mean you've

669
00:31:57,160 --> 00:32:00,400
Speaker 1: got more than twenty guys right now on Cleveland. You've

670
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:03,800
Speaker 1: got twenty one right now with Washington, You've got twenty

671
00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:07,280
Speaker 1: five with the Rams, You've got twelve with Chicago, and

672
00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:09,880
Speaker 1: so you don't know how that's all going to play out.

673
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:12,720
Speaker 1: But you know, again it's a team decision, not a

674
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:16,080
Speaker 1: league decision. But if the team doesn't have enough players,

675
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:20,040
Speaker 1: then they can't play. John, are you watching this Thursday

676
00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:24,200
Speaker 1: nights football game? You got Casey thirteen the Charges fourteen.

677
00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:27,880
Speaker 1: I liked this kid, justin Herbert John coming into his career,

678
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:30,680
Speaker 1: I wasn't sure about him, but I'm coming a believer.

679
00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:34,800
Speaker 1: What about you believe the last? Because you know, I

680
00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:37,000
Speaker 1: know I did a story for the Washington Post with

681
00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:40,040
Speaker 1: the Tom Kleesco, the general manager, and this is the

682
00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 1: guy that he wanted, not necessarily twoah, and so when

683
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:46,920
Speaker 1: Miami took twa, he felt totally relieved that he was

684
00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:48,800
Speaker 1: going to get the guy that he wanted. And so

685
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:52,160
Speaker 1: because of that, you can see that Herberts now had

686
00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:56,520
Speaker 1: back to back thirty touchdown seasons. He can run, he's sharp,

687
00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:59,040
Speaker 1: he can do all these different things. I mean, he

688
00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:02,000
Speaker 1: has absolutely since sational, so certainly one of the best

689
00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:05,040
Speaker 1: young quarterbacks to step into the league in the last

690
00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:08,280
Speaker 1: two years. And I think he's got a major play

691
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:11,040
Speaker 1: and right now he's sitting there with a twenty to

692
00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:13,240
Speaker 1: thirteen lead for you to see how they do on

693
00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:16,840
Speaker 1: the extra point. John So, going back to the Rams,

694
00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:20,000
Speaker 1: the Seahawks opponent this weekend, it's Cooper Cup. Two part.

695
00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:22,400
Speaker 1: Question number one, is Cooper Cup the best receiver in

696
00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:24,600
Speaker 1: the league? And is this something that you think he

697
00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:26,200
Speaker 1: can do again? Are we seeing a kind of a

698
00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:28,880
Speaker 1: mirage of a great thing and everything just lines up,

699
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:30,640
Speaker 1: or do you think Cooper Cup can have this kind

700
00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:33,200
Speaker 1: of sustained success throughout the west of his career. No.

701
00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:36,600
Speaker 1: I still remember being on the sideline for the first

702
00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:40,000
Speaker 1: game down with the Rams and Cooper Cup ended up

703
00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:42,719
Speaker 1: hitting his first real chance to play and you can

704
00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:45,680
Speaker 1: see then he was really good. And so as much

705
00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:49,360
Speaker 1: as Davante Adams has been the best receiver over the

706
00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:51,480
Speaker 1: last couple of years, now you have to give it

707
00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:54,920
Speaker 1: the Cup. I mean he's on the verge of setting

708
00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:59,520
Speaker 1: team record, I mean league records for pass catches, for yardage,

709
00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:03,200
Speaker 1: all those different things. And he's just an absolutely fantastic

710
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:06,960
Speaker 1: And we're talking to people down with the Rams that

711
00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:10,080
Speaker 1: the thing is because he actually did play quarterback at

712
00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:14,239
Speaker 1: one point. He's so sharp in recognizing things. I know that.

713
00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:17,719
Speaker 1: John McVeigh just the other day said that, you know,

714
00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:21,640
Speaker 1: he's Peyton Manning sharp in his recognition of what's going

715
00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:25,320
Speaker 1: on with a defense and what's going on overall. And

716
00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:28,600
Speaker 1: he's that good and so right now he is the

717
00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:31,160
Speaker 1: best receiver because he's having one of the greatest receiving

718
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:34,800
Speaker 1: years in NFL history. John, I appreciate you saying that,

719
00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:36,520
Speaker 1: because when I said that, it didn't mean nothing. My

720
00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:38,919
Speaker 1: co hosts were like, the best receiver in the league,

721
00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:40,880
Speaker 1: what are you talking about? All yes, Scooper cup is

722
00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:43,440
Speaker 1: the best receiver in the league. So John Clayton says it,

723
00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:45,360
Speaker 1: you know that it's real. But now I'm going to

724
00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:49,400
Speaker 1: ask you about Matthew Stafford. He is surrounded by weapons,

725
00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:51,919
Speaker 1: he had his tough run, what they lost three games

726
00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:55,120
Speaker 1: in a row. It seems like he is back. Do

727
00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:57,239
Speaker 1: you feel like he is good enough to take this

728
00:34:57,360 --> 00:35:00,799
Speaker 1: team to a super Bowl. I think so yeah. I mean,

729
00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:04,240
Speaker 1: because again, he's that talented and he's always been that talented.

730
00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:06,560
Speaker 1: I mean, the problem is he was in Detroit and

731
00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:09,120
Speaker 1: he didn't have enough talent around him. Now he's got

732
00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:11,680
Speaker 1: more talent around him than he's ever had. It's kind

733
00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:14,839
Speaker 1: of like last year with Tom Brady. Tom Brady never

734
00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:18,640
Speaker 1: had just many wide receivers and skilled players and stuff

735
00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:20,960
Speaker 1: like that when he was with New England, and you

736
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:22,920
Speaker 1: saw what he was able to do last year. He

737
00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:25,400
Speaker 1: took a team to the super Bowl. Now again, you

738
00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:27,919
Speaker 1: know they don't have Odell Beckham Junior. Probably this week

739
00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:31,160
Speaker 1: they're down, you know, one of their backup two of

740
00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:33,799
Speaker 1: their backup tight ends, and so that's going to hurt,

741
00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:36,440
Speaker 1: and they're hurting a little bit on the offensive line.

742
00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:38,840
Speaker 1: But no, I think you could see even though he

743
00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:40,359
Speaker 1: had a little bit of a slump for about three

744
00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:44,439
Speaker 1: or four weeks, I mean, this guy is really really good. Well, John,

745
00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:46,960
Speaker 1: So the Rams have obviously been win Now obviously the

746
00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:48,920
Speaker 1: last couple of years, you're bringing up ob j, you're

747
00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:51,000
Speaker 1: bringing von Miller, all the moves that they continue to

748
00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:53,600
Speaker 1: make you pay. Jellen Ramsey. If the Rams don't get

749
00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:56,840
Speaker 1: to the super Bowl this year? Number one? Is it

750
00:35:56,920 --> 00:36:00,200
Speaker 1: super Bow robust or you know, what's Sean McVay look

751
00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:01,919
Speaker 1: like after this year if they don't get it because

752
00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:03,960
Speaker 1: they don't have a first round pick. Nil, My kids

753
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:06,439
Speaker 1: are probably fifteen, So what's the state of the Rams

754
00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:08,560
Speaker 1: if they don't win the Super Bowl this year? I

755
00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:11,040
Speaker 1: still think it can squeeze out one more year, but

756
00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:13,080
Speaker 1: it'll start to catch up to him in two and

757
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:16,640
Speaker 1: thirteen because again that's gonna be five years without a

758
00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:19,719
Speaker 1: first round pick, and you know, they still have cap

759
00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:23,440
Speaker 1: issues things of that nature and being able to resign

760
00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:26,719
Speaker 1: some players, so that could be very, very difficult. So

761
00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:29,480
Speaker 1: in the end, I think that, you know, the Rams

762
00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:32,480
Speaker 1: still can squeeze out one more year, but that's about

763
00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:35,480
Speaker 1: it because normally you have like about a four or

764
00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:39,520
Speaker 1: five years cycle just stay on top, and you know

765
00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:43,200
Speaker 1: they're still you know, young in that cycle. But overall,

766
00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:45,320
Speaker 1: I think you can see that when you don't have

767
00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:48,359
Speaker 1: the first round picks, and again, like for example, next

768
00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:54,280
Speaker 1: year they only have like about two or three draft choices.

769
00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:58,640
Speaker 1: Now they get another one because of a compensatory pick

770
00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:01,080
Speaker 1: for one of the front officers of executives that they lost,

771
00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:03,960
Speaker 1: so they get a third round compensatory because they just

772
00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:06,919
Speaker 1: don't have any draft choices. And again, if you don't

773
00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:09,640
Speaker 1: have any draft choices, you don't have enough young guys

774
00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:12,319
Speaker 1: to be able to justify your cap. So that will

775
00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:14,960
Speaker 1: definitely catch up to them. No draft picks for a

776
00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:17,200
Speaker 1: long time. My guy says, until his kids were fifteen.

777
00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:19,279
Speaker 1: His kids aren't even born yet. He's on the ways

778
00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:20,640
Speaker 1: or she's on the way, So it's gonna be a

779
00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:23,440
Speaker 1: long time before the Rams have another draft pick. But

780
00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:25,920
Speaker 1: I want to ask you about defensive player of the year.

781
00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:28,279
Speaker 1: Right there's a lot of guys in the mix right now.

782
00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:31,279
Speaker 1: You got Bosa, you got Aaron Donald, and you got

783
00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:35,040
Speaker 1: a rookie and Michael Parsons over there for the Dallas Cowboys.

784
00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:36,759
Speaker 1: Who do you think wins Defensive Player of the year.

785
00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:40,480
Speaker 1: It's still wide open because you can't roll out Aaron Donald.

786
00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:43,879
Speaker 1: But I think right now Michael Parsons has a great

787
00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:46,799
Speaker 1: chance of doing it because again, one of the things

788
00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:49,240
Speaker 1: that happened is that they didn't have the Marcus lawrene.

789
00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:53,680
Speaker 1: They didn't have you know, certainly Randy Gregory, so he

790
00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:56,200
Speaker 1: had to add something to his game. That he didn't

791
00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:58,719
Speaker 1: do in college, which is rushed to the quarterback, and

792
00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:01,759
Speaker 1: he not only Russia quarterback, but he rushed him well.

793
00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:05,120
Speaker 1: And you can see that coming into the draft. You know,

794
00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:09,120
Speaker 1: he and Patrick Certan were the best too defensive players

795
00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:12,000
Speaker 1: in the draft and Certan's had a great ear. But

796
00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:15,440
Speaker 1: again Parts has had even a better year, so I

797
00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:17,960
Speaker 1: think he has a chance. But again it's still kind

798
00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:20,960
Speaker 1: of wide open. It's that time of the show. John.

799
00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:22,360
Speaker 1: First of all, you want to say thank you for

800
00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:25,439
Speaker 1: joining us all season long, every single Thursday and Hawks

801
00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:27,640
Speaker 1: Live at seven forty five with the Professor John Clayton.

802
00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:30,920
Speaker 1: What is that time, John? What's on your mind? But

803
00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:33,640
Speaker 1: what's on my mind right now? It's just a matter.

804
00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:35,520
Speaker 1: By the way, it looks like there's a good chance

805
00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:37,960
Speaker 1: that the Chiefs are going to take the league does

806
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:42,520
Speaker 1: the flag. But the you know, the thing that what

807
00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:45,160
Speaker 1: I like is the fact that I mean, I'm still

808
00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:49,799
Speaker 1: amazed at what the league did with the COVID adjustment

809
00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:51,840
Speaker 1: because I don't know if it's right or wrong. The

810
00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:54,560
Speaker 1: players are upset about it because you know what they

811
00:38:54,760 --> 00:38:57,560
Speaker 1: what they said yesterday is that they were worried that

812
00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:01,080
Speaker 1: the NFL would go back and start to worry more

813
00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:04,560
Speaker 1: about the competition than safety. And so what they did

814
00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:07,360
Speaker 1: today is they came back and and said, Okay, so

815
00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:10,520
Speaker 1: now we're going to let players come back even though

816
00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:13,480
Speaker 1: they test positive in a day or two if they're

817
00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:18,200
Speaker 1: viral level in a certain level. And if that's going

818
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:20,200
Speaker 1: to be the case, I mean, you're gonna get guys

819
00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:24,200
Speaker 1: back faster. But how much damage can they come because again,

820
00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:27,160
Speaker 1: you know, they didn't do as much testing as they should.

821
00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:30,320
Speaker 1: They end up having over one hundred players being on

822
00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:33,880
Speaker 1: the COVID's list. I'm worried about that. And that's what

823
00:39:34,040 --> 00:39:37,760
Speaker 1: I'm because, again, not that I agree with the Players

824
00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:40,520
Speaker 1: Association a lot of times, but in this case I

825
00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:43,359
Speaker 1: agree with them one hundred percent because I think right now,

826
00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:46,480
Speaker 1: what you're looking at, they're more concerned about the competition

827
00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:50,640
Speaker 1: than they are anything else. Money talks, John, Money talks, Man.

828
00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:52,719
Speaker 1: We appreciate you taking time out of your night. We'll

829
00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:55,840
Speaker 1: do it again on Sunday. Okay, sounds good. All right,

830
00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:58,399
Speaker 1: that was John Clayton. When we return, it's time to talk.

831
00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:00,520
Speaker 1: That taught me and Asa Chelby will square up and

832
00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:02,839
Speaker 1: talk about some topics that are dear to us. Will

833
00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:06,080
Speaker 1: the Seahawks make the playoffs. Who's better DK or Jalen Ramsey?

834
00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:08,160
Speaker 1: Is a super Bowl or bus for the rounds? We'll

835
00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:10,279
Speaker 1: talk about that in more. Next right here on Hawks Line,

836
00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:15,080
Speaker 1: it's time to talk that talk with Michael Bumpus and

837
00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:26,359
Speaker 1: Paul Moyer on Hawks Live. Welcome back to Hawks Live.

838
00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:28,200
Speaker 1: It's time to talk that talk. We're gonna pick some

839
00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:31,120
Speaker 1: topics to square off. Except it's not Paul Moyer on

840
00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:34,320
Speaker 1: the other side of the ring. It is NASA, Choby.

841
00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:36,520
Speaker 1: NASA produces this thing, so he knows how it goes.

842
00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:38,040
Speaker 1: I don't need to explain the rules of this, dude.

843
00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:40,160
Speaker 1: Let's go bady. He knows what's up. So the first

844
00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:44,520
Speaker 1: question I got for you, Choby, will the Seahawks make

845
00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:49,239
Speaker 1: the playoffs? The answer is yes. Now everyone's gonna be like, man,

846
00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:51,760
Speaker 1: you are such a homer. There's no chance to season

847
00:40:51,800 --> 00:40:53,880
Speaker 1: make the playoffs. They started three and eight. Yep. Well,

848
00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:55,720
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you why they're gonna make the playoffs.

849
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:58,160
Speaker 1: Take a look at the current playoffs standings, right, I'm

850
00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:00,400
Speaker 1: only gonna look at the wild cart spots. Right, you

851
00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:03,880
Speaker 1: have the Washington football team six and seven, Minnesota Vikings

852
00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:06,920
Speaker 1: six and seven, Eagles six and seven, Falcons six and seven,

853
00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:10,160
Speaker 1: Saint six and seven, Panthers five name. I'm gonna tell

854
00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:12,160
Speaker 1: you why, and it's in the schedule. That's why. All.

855
00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:15,560
Speaker 1: Obviously it should be noted that I'm assuming the Seahawks

856
00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:17,200
Speaker 1: went out and they take care of business to Sunday,

857
00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:19,480
Speaker 1: and I do think that's gonna happen, So let's just

858
00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:21,759
Speaker 1: put that aside. The Seahawks finished nine and eight. The

859
00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:25,120
Speaker 1: Washington Football team plays the Eagles, the Cowboys, the Eagles,

860
00:41:25,239 --> 00:41:27,920
Speaker 1: the Giants. They're gonna split with the Eagles, probably they

861
00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:30,040
Speaker 1: play them twice, and they're gonna lose to the Cowboys. Boom.

862
00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:32,839
Speaker 1: What does that make it? Eight to nine, doesn't matter.

863
00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:34,520
Speaker 1: If the Seahawks last toom, they have a better record.

864
00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:37,720
Speaker 1: The Vikings. They got the Bears, the Rams, the Packers,

865
00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:40,279
Speaker 1: the Bears, they play the Bears Swiss Division rival. They

866
00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:43,359
Speaker 1: probably split. They're definitely losing to the Rams and they're

867
00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:46,320
Speaker 1: losing to the Packers. So they could finish seven in

868
00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:52,560
Speaker 1: ten or eight nine five Vikings, Eagles, Washington Football Team twice, Giants, Cowboys.

869
00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:55,160
Speaker 1: They're gonna smack the Giants. They'll split with the Washington

870
00:41:55,160 --> 00:41:57,960
Speaker 1: football team. Division rival. They'll lose to the Cowboys. Okay,

871
00:41:58,040 --> 00:42:02,919
Speaker 1: they're gone Falcons, forty nine Ers, Lions, Bills, Saints. They're

872
00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:04,799
Speaker 1: gonna lose to the forty nine Ers. They're gonna smack

873
00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:06,520
Speaker 1: the Lions, but they're gonna lose to the Bills and

874
00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:10,080
Speaker 1: the Saints. Doesn't matter because they're now eight nine. Now

875
00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:14,880
Speaker 1: going to the Saints. They play Tampa, Miami, Panthers, Falcons,

876
00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:18,000
Speaker 1: they're losing to Tampa. They're probably losing to Miami. They'll

877
00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:21,480
Speaker 1: beat the Panthers and the Falcons, and then the Panthers

878
00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:23,640
Speaker 1: they're lost cause they're five and eight. They got they

879
00:42:23,719 --> 00:42:26,960
Speaker 1: got Buffalo, the Bucks twice in the Saints, so if

880
00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:28,960
Speaker 1: they're they're not they might not win another game this year.

881
00:42:29,360 --> 00:42:31,239
Speaker 1: And the Seahawks went out and I'm telling you, Bump,

882
00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:33,560
Speaker 1: it's going to happen. I just broke down the schedule,

883
00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:37,000
Speaker 1: everything I said. It feels real. There's a possibility there.

884
00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:40,680
Speaker 1: I'm saying it's gonna happen. Take care of business on

885
00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:42,880
Speaker 1: Sunday and they are going to the playoffs. And they

886
00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:46,160
Speaker 1: are going to the playoffs. He says, I love his energy,

887
00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:49,680
Speaker 1: his belief. He wakes us up on Sundays with all

888
00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:52,520
Speaker 1: this hypeness and let's us know why this is gonna happen.

889
00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:54,759
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you why it's not gonna happen. And

890
00:42:54,920 --> 00:42:57,839
Speaker 1: I love the Hawks. Gave me an opportunity to play

891
00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:00,160
Speaker 1: the game. I love for money, I work for them

892
00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:02,479
Speaker 1: on Sundays. I like some of the guys on the team,

893
00:43:03,920 --> 00:43:06,480
Speaker 1: my dudes, all right, But I think it comes down

894
00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:09,960
Speaker 1: to the Minnesota Vikings. They are so unpredictable. Of these Vikings,

895
00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:12,359
Speaker 1: all right, they played the Bears twice. I think they

896
00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:15,160
Speaker 1: handle them. I think they're gonna handle the Bears twice. Okay,

897
00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:17,920
Speaker 1: then I think they're gonna win a game between the

898
00:43:18,120 --> 00:43:21,040
Speaker 1: Rams and the Packers. They're gonna win one of those games.

899
00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:22,960
Speaker 1: It might be the Rams, it might be the Packers.

900
00:43:23,239 --> 00:43:26,160
Speaker 1: Kirk Huts is the most unpredictable quarterback in the league.

901
00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:28,160
Speaker 1: I want to say he leaves the league in touchdowns

902
00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:31,600
Speaker 1: right now. He you just never know he's gonna do

903
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:34,879
Speaker 1: the wild Card just because of the unpredictable. I don't

904
00:43:34,920 --> 00:43:37,799
Speaker 1: have the wins and the losses, and he's they're gonna

905
00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:40,120
Speaker 1: be in then moved there and all the scientific stuff

906
00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:42,600
Speaker 1: that you just did. I'm just going off of my

907
00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:46,160
Speaker 1: heart and what the Minnesota Vikings do, and I think

908
00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:48,400
Speaker 1: they're gonna win three out of their last four. They

909
00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:53,200
Speaker 1: hold the tiebreaker. It's a rat I mean, without argument,

910
00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:55,080
Speaker 1: they are very unpredictable. But I could also see them.

911
00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:58,319
Speaker 1: Because they're so unpredictable, I can see them going for whatever. Hey,

912
00:43:58,719 --> 00:44:00,640
Speaker 1: I'm with that. I hope they do. I hope you're right.

913
00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:03,720
Speaker 1: I hope i'll too, for a lot of different reasons. Okay,

914
00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:08,879
Speaker 1: next topic. Will Rashad Penny have another one hundred yard

915
00:44:08,920 --> 00:44:12,319
Speaker 1: game before the season's over? Will he? That is most

916
00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:15,000
Speaker 1: definitely this guy's gonna get gone. I don't know if

917
00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:17,239
Speaker 1: it's against the Rams. I think that he plays well

918
00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:19,320
Speaker 1: against the Rams, but I think the Bears and the

919
00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:21,960
Speaker 1: Lions are ready to give up one hundred twenty one

920
00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:24,719
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty five. They're just waiting to give up

921
00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:26,600
Speaker 1: one hundred twenty hundred and twenty five. So yeah, just

922
00:44:26,640 --> 00:44:28,840
Speaker 1: because of the schedule, because I know the Ram struggles

923
00:44:28,840 --> 00:44:31,200
Speaker 1: defensively and the Lion struggles, I think he's gonna get

924
00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:33,359
Speaker 1: a dem this week. Though. I just need to see

925
00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:37,560
Speaker 1: him get the ball fifteen to sixteen times and be

926
00:44:37,719 --> 00:44:41,200
Speaker 1: effective and have those impact runs. As Turbo would say,

927
00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:43,480
Speaker 1: what do you think, Well, you know, I think about

928
00:44:43,520 --> 00:44:45,400
Speaker 1: a deva's advocate would say, well, do you think he's

929
00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:47,480
Speaker 1: gonna continue to be healthy? I think he's gonna be

930
00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:49,200
Speaker 1: healthy because he's shown it the last two weeks. And

931
00:44:49,239 --> 00:44:51,960
Speaker 1: I have to ruth you bump because I'm seeing Rashad.

932
00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:55,040
Speaker 1: He's got that swag's walk down around boom, he's getting

933
00:44:55,080 --> 00:44:57,760
Speaker 1: the rock, he's running downhill, he's running between the tackles.

934
00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:00,000
Speaker 1: That confidence is there, and we all know about to speak,

935
00:45:00,719 --> 00:45:03,680
Speaker 1: we're sad, Penny, I'm gonna dot one further. All right,

936
00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:06,759
Speaker 1: my man gets two one one hundred yard games for

937
00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:10,799
Speaker 1: the season's over. I said it against the Bears and Alliance. Yeah,

938
00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:13,480
Speaker 1: maybe even the Cardinals. I don't know, but it's at

939
00:45:13,520 --> 00:45:16,200
Speaker 1: least two. I'm going I'm going with two. I'm with you,

940
00:45:16,320 --> 00:45:19,040
Speaker 1: I'm with you, all right, my turn on your term.

941
00:45:19,239 --> 00:45:22,719
Speaker 1: That's all right. Matthew Stafford will never win or play

942
00:45:23,080 --> 00:45:27,319
Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl. Thoughts. Oh, that's a tough one, um,

943
00:45:28,239 --> 00:45:31,120
Speaker 1: but it's really not a tough No. Ain't going down, huh.

944
00:45:31,200 --> 00:45:32,680
Speaker 1: I don't think it's going down. And there's nothing to

945
00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:34,600
Speaker 1: do with mat Matthew Stafford. I think he is a

946
00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:36,440
Speaker 1: great quarterback. I think he did get a lot of

947
00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:39,120
Speaker 1: shade for playing in Detroit. I think he's better than

948
00:45:39,320 --> 00:45:41,200
Speaker 1: all those teams he played on. But when you want

949
00:45:41,200 --> 00:45:43,560
Speaker 1: to look at Matthew Stafford, look at what he's gone through. Man,

950
00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:47,880
Speaker 1: he has struggled so mightily in his career. Okay, as

951
00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:50,000
Speaker 1: I'm just fumbling through these notes trying to find the

952
00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:52,800
Speaker 1: staff that I wrote down, and here it is. Matthew Stafford.

953
00:45:53,520 --> 00:45:56,440
Speaker 1: Last Monday night was his first win ever against a

954
00:45:56,480 --> 00:45:58,640
Speaker 1: team with eight plus victories at the time of the

955
00:45:58,800 --> 00:46:02,719
Speaker 1: game previously and twenty Matthew Stafford also collected his first

956
00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:05,479
Speaker 1: win against an opponent who entered the game at least

957
00:46:05,560 --> 00:46:09,040
Speaker 1: five games above five hundred and seventeen heading into that game.

958
00:46:09,480 --> 00:46:11,040
Speaker 1: And you can say, well, a lot of that is

959
00:46:11,120 --> 00:46:13,399
Speaker 1: playing in Detroit. That's a bad program. That's a bad

960
00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:15,479
Speaker 1: football team. You got him the playoff once, they always

961
00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:17,640
Speaker 1: took outs. Now he's here with a great head coach,

962
00:46:18,200 --> 00:46:20,399
Speaker 1: a great environment. They're going all in to win out.

963
00:46:21,719 --> 00:46:23,520
Speaker 1: I just don't think they win the Super Bowl this year,

964
00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:24,960
Speaker 1: and this is their best year to do it. I

965
00:46:25,040 --> 00:46:27,120
Speaker 1: think they're gonna have to pay people and has nothing

966
00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:28,799
Speaker 1: to do with his skill set. Or Sean McVay. Those

967
00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:31,600
Speaker 1: are two amazing players and coach coach and player combo.

968
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:33,480
Speaker 1: I just don't think if they don't do it this year,

969
00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:35,080
Speaker 1: they're gonna they don't have draft picks, they don't have

970
00:46:35,120 --> 00:46:36,719
Speaker 1: any of that stuff. And I don't think it's gonna happen.

971
00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:39,520
Speaker 1: He's gonna start to decline. He's old. So no, Matt

972
00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:41,520
Speaker 1: does not go to a Super He might go to one,

973
00:46:41,560 --> 00:46:43,719
Speaker 1: he definitely doesn't win win. All right, Well, you just

974
00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:45,879
Speaker 1: stoled my argument because I'm saying, if it don't happen

975
00:46:45,920 --> 00:46:47,279
Speaker 1: this year, and it ain't gonna happen, and it's not

976
00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:50,440
Speaker 1: gonna happen this year, Aaron Rodgers playing out of sight,

977
00:46:51,520 --> 00:46:53,440
Speaker 1: Tom Brady playing out of sight, you still got to

978
00:46:53,480 --> 00:46:55,480
Speaker 1: go through Kyler Murray, you still got to go through

979
00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:57,600
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott. Let's go to the other side of the

980
00:46:57,680 --> 00:47:00,400
Speaker 1: bragget you got Mac Jones on the page. Just ain't well.

981
00:47:00,560 --> 00:47:03,200
Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans are fighting their way through. You can never

982
00:47:03,320 --> 00:47:06,120
Speaker 1: sleep on Pat Mahomes and those boys, and Justin Herbert

983
00:47:06,200 --> 00:47:08,319
Speaker 1: is emerging as a star in this sleep. Too many

984
00:47:08,440 --> 00:47:11,480
Speaker 1: obstacles for this young man to go over. I don't

985
00:47:11,480 --> 00:47:13,879
Speaker 1: think he's young anymore. He's probably like my like thirty three,

986
00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:15,640
Speaker 1: thirty four years. He's been in the league for a minute.

987
00:47:15,680 --> 00:47:17,160
Speaker 1: He's at least that he's been here for a while.

988
00:47:17,239 --> 00:47:19,759
Speaker 1: He ain't young no more. I do not think it

989
00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:22,400
Speaker 1: is going to happen. Well, I'm gonna sneak one more

990
00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:24,040
Speaker 1: in before the gun, because we got no more guests

991
00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:25,880
Speaker 1: coming up beyond this. I can do this because you

992
00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:29,600
Speaker 1: know what he's what I able to have said in

993
00:47:29,680 --> 00:47:31,400
Speaker 1: your ear. But I'm on this side of the glass.

994
00:47:31,440 --> 00:47:32,840
Speaker 1: I never get to do this and never to make

995
00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:34,640
Speaker 1: decisions on the air like that, So I'm gonna do

996
00:47:34,680 --> 00:47:38,960
Speaker 1: it a quick one. Will dk Metcalf get the better

997
00:47:39,120 --> 00:47:44,080
Speaker 1: of Jalen Ramsey on Sunday? Most definitely, most definitely, because

998
00:47:44,120 --> 00:47:47,640
Speaker 1: he's due. He's due. He's a sleeping volcano. He's due.

999
00:47:47,640 --> 00:47:49,319
Speaker 1: The last couple of games, I believe he has five

1000
00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:51,480
Speaker 1: per SEPs one hundred and seventy three yards. It's a

1001
00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:54,799
Speaker 1: five somewhere around there. One hundred and seventy three yards

1002
00:47:54,840 --> 00:47:56,800
Speaker 1: in the last two, two or three games. That's just

1003
00:47:56,960 --> 00:47:59,640
Speaker 1: not DK Metcalf. Tyler Lockett has gotten a lot of love.

1004
00:47:59,680 --> 00:48:03,000
Speaker 1: He deserves it. All these targets good for him, but

1005
00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:05,480
Speaker 1: I think it's time for fourteen to re emerge and

1006
00:48:05,560 --> 00:48:08,120
Speaker 1: he gets up for games like this. He likes the

1007
00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:11,760
Speaker 1: challenge of Jalen Ramsey. I think he wins the bout.

1008
00:48:12,680 --> 00:48:14,120
Speaker 1: I'm with you because I want to see it. But

1009
00:48:14,239 --> 00:48:16,239
Speaker 1: what I really want to see in all the fans

1010
00:48:16,320 --> 00:48:19,600
Speaker 1: out there want to see is DK Metcalf Jalen Ramsey

1011
00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:22,920
Speaker 1: both miked up. Please, but we're never gonna see that. Man.

1012
00:48:23,480 --> 00:48:25,279
Speaker 1: You don't people don't pay enough money for that. You

1013
00:48:25,280 --> 00:48:27,000
Speaker 1: don't get that stuff for free. You know what I'm saying.

1014
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:28,960
Speaker 1: I pay a hundred bucks for that one hundred I

1015
00:48:29,080 --> 00:48:31,560
Speaker 1: pay sixty five for the UFC. I'll pay one hundred

1016
00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:34,960
Speaker 1: bucks for DK and Ramsey miked up. I think you

1017
00:48:35,040 --> 00:48:36,759
Speaker 1: get people. I think there's people out there that pay

1018
00:48:36,800 --> 00:48:39,480
Speaker 1: a lot more than that. Yeah, something to think about, NFL.

1019
00:48:39,600 --> 00:48:41,359
Speaker 1: You heard it here. You gotta give us our moneyf

1020
00:48:41,400 --> 00:48:43,200
Speaker 1: y'all do that though we need like five percent. All right,

1021
00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:45,920
Speaker 1: we returned. We'll go inside the film when we'll breakdown.

1022
00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:49,000
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson finding Tyler Locket for a fifty five yard touchdown.

1023
00:48:49,320 --> 00:48:52,759
Speaker 1: Darryl Taylor sax David's mills in the fourth quarter. Then

1024
00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:55,120
Speaker 1: we're shot. Penny takes it to the house forty seven yards.

1025
00:48:55,440 --> 00:48:58,400
Speaker 1: All that's next Here on Hawks Live, Welcome back to

1026
00:48:58,560 --> 00:49:01,520
Speaker 1: Hawks Live of Michael Bump is joined with NASA Chovie. Today,

1027
00:49:01,600 --> 00:49:03,840
Speaker 1: Paul Moyer's out hitting golf balls in a desert or

1028
00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:06,359
Speaker 1: some sort. It's time to go into the film room.

1029
00:49:06,960 --> 00:49:09,440
Speaker 1: And I love the film room. Man. This is if

1030
00:49:09,480 --> 00:49:12,360
Speaker 1: you ever played sports and they're filming your practice and

1031
00:49:13,080 --> 00:49:15,959
Speaker 1: the eye and the sky never lies. If your coach

1032
00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:19,640
Speaker 1: asks you a question, you better come with its accurate

1033
00:49:19,680 --> 00:49:22,279
Speaker 1: as a response as you can because you're gonna watch

1034
00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:25,360
Speaker 1: film and be exposed. Oh absolutely. I think about coach Stewart,

1035
00:49:25,480 --> 00:49:27,800
Speaker 1: who had an amazing career. Shout out to coach Stewart,

1036
00:49:27,800 --> 00:49:30,160
Speaker 1: my high school coach at Menot High School, retired from

1037
00:49:30,160 --> 00:49:32,600
Speaker 1: another great run at Mariner High School. But you couldn't

1038
00:49:32,640 --> 00:49:35,120
Speaker 1: lie man, that old film mind the sky were you blocked?

1039
00:49:35,160 --> 00:49:37,040
Speaker 1: You better have an answer because if you're wrong, you're

1040
00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:39,080
Speaker 1: an answer to it. But I have the right answer. Okay,

1041
00:49:39,120 --> 00:49:41,480
Speaker 1: So now let's break down our first play. We're gonna

1042
00:49:41,520 --> 00:49:43,640
Speaker 1: look at Russell Wilson. He finds Tyler Lockett for a

1043
00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:46,640
Speaker 1: fifty five yard touchdown on first and ten from the

1044
00:49:46,680 --> 00:49:49,879
Speaker 1: Hawks forty five, sliding to his right side, stops look

1045
00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:54,520
Speaker 1: strost a man out there. Locker flight open touchsdown straight Hawks.

1046
00:49:55,320 --> 00:49:58,439
Speaker 1: How in the world this time? And Locker get open

1047
00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:01,800
Speaker 1: heavy hits took that I can swims the rest of

1048
00:50:01,880 --> 00:50:06,720
Speaker 1: the way up fifty five yard rainbow by Russell Wilson

1049
00:50:07,080 --> 00:50:09,600
Speaker 1: and the twelves and there are a lot of them

1050
00:50:09,880 --> 00:50:15,160
Speaker 1: are going nuts and Houston sixteen ten the Hawks league

1051
00:50:16,360 --> 00:50:19,719
Speaker 1: just a real nice combination for the defense that the

1052
00:50:19,800 --> 00:50:21,759
Speaker 1: Hawks or see him. The Texans come out of one

1053
00:50:21,880 --> 00:50:24,239
Speaker 1: high look and dropping to cover three. That means the

1054
00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:28,560
Speaker 1: corner free safety corner have deep thirds. Now Tyler Locket

1055
00:50:28,640 --> 00:50:30,560
Speaker 1: is on the bottom. He's on the bottom of the number.

1056
00:50:30,600 --> 00:50:32,280
Speaker 1: He has a tight end inside of him. I believe

1057
00:50:32,280 --> 00:50:34,640
Speaker 1: that's Jared Evert. Jared Everard is gonna run the speed

1058
00:50:34,680 --> 00:50:37,840
Speaker 1: out and take care of the flat defender. Tyler Lockett

1059
00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:41,480
Speaker 1: stems inside to kind of feel that corner, and when

1060
00:50:41,560 --> 00:50:43,799
Speaker 1: he gets about to the forty he jabs at him

1061
00:50:43,960 --> 00:50:46,160
Speaker 1: boom right foot in the ground and that kind of

1062
00:50:46,680 --> 00:50:49,600
Speaker 1: kind of stumbles the cornerback a little bit. And just

1063
00:50:49,760 --> 00:50:51,840
Speaker 1: fly by him. But the key to all this is

1064
00:50:51,880 --> 00:50:54,359
Speaker 1: happening is at safety. And as to Choby was talking

1065
00:50:54,400 --> 00:50:56,439
Speaker 1: about this before the break, like, look, when you see

1066
00:50:56,480 --> 00:50:58,279
Speaker 1: us a safety, try to speed turn out of that.

1067
00:50:58,360 --> 00:51:00,560
Speaker 1: Think it is at a speed turn. What's the proper well, no,

1068
00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:02,719
Speaker 1: he should have speech. Should he opened up his hips

1069
00:51:02,840 --> 00:51:05,640
Speaker 1: right and then opened up back left. Yeah, And once

1070
00:51:05,719 --> 00:51:08,960
Speaker 1: we see that happening, you're done. So all Lockett does

1071
00:51:09,080 --> 00:51:11,000
Speaker 1: is he gets skinny, he stays away from the safety,

1072
00:51:11,040 --> 00:51:14,279
Speaker 1: gets on top of the corner, and Russell just delivers

1073
00:51:14,480 --> 00:51:17,719
Speaker 1: a bomb in sixteen does what he does? You know

1074
00:51:17,800 --> 00:51:20,919
Speaker 1: that for the Texans defensively, they're they're in decent shape.

1075
00:51:20,920 --> 00:51:22,719
Speaker 1: You just gotta do your job. Yep, you're watching this.

1076
00:51:22,840 --> 00:51:25,640
Speaker 1: It's it's passed all the way. Tyler Lockett is great

1077
00:51:25,640 --> 00:51:27,440
Speaker 1: at running these deep routs. You can rally up to

1078
00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:30,000
Speaker 1: anything short. When you're a deep third defender, you gotta

1079
00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:32,719
Speaker 1: stay deep and it's easy pitching catch. And that's what

1080
00:51:32,760 --> 00:51:35,239
Speaker 1: we talked about earlier talking about Russell Wilson's amazing arm

1081
00:51:35,280 --> 00:51:37,880
Speaker 1: and the moonballs and the shots right there, that's exactly

1082
00:51:37,920 --> 00:51:40,840
Speaker 1: what you're looking at. And just I mean, the Texans

1083
00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:42,440
Speaker 1: are worth. They are for a reason. They ranked the

1084
00:51:42,480 --> 00:51:44,759
Speaker 1: dead last in almost every single category against the past

1085
00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:47,799
Speaker 1: though fifteen. Yeah, you're no, you're right, you're right, you're right.

1086
00:51:47,840 --> 00:51:50,520
Speaker 1: I sold them short. But on this play, it's just

1087
00:51:50,640 --> 00:51:53,440
Speaker 1: it's just bad secondary play. The safety gets out of position. Granted,

1088
00:51:53,920 --> 00:51:56,280
Speaker 1: when you have DK Metcalf on one side, ty Lockett

1089
00:51:56,280 --> 00:51:58,440
Speaker 1: one side, and they're both running deep routes, I understand

1090
00:51:58,520 --> 00:52:01,120
Speaker 1: being conflicted, but you gotta feet turned, baby, otherwise you've

1091
00:52:01,120 --> 00:52:05,200
Speaker 1: got no chance. Yeah, it's amazing to me how Tyler

1092
00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:08,759
Speaker 1: Lockett continues to get open deep and he's a fast

1093
00:52:08,800 --> 00:52:11,000
Speaker 1: football player, but he does the little subtle things that

1094
00:52:11,040 --> 00:52:13,120
Speaker 1: people don't really pick up on, like that jab aft

1095
00:52:13,160 --> 00:52:15,520
Speaker 1: the corner to make him stumble. That's a subtle thing.

1096
00:52:15,560 --> 00:52:20,520
Speaker 1: That's something may maybe a receiver that's not as experienced

1097
00:52:20,640 --> 00:52:22,640
Speaker 1: really that really doesn't do. He just shots run by you,

1098
00:52:22,760 --> 00:52:24,640
Speaker 1: but he says, look, I'm gonna run by you, but

1099
00:52:24,680 --> 00:52:27,719
Speaker 1: I'll make you stumble. At the same time, Lockett is

1100
00:52:28,520 --> 00:52:29,880
Speaker 1: one of the like I said, I'll say it all

1101
00:52:29,880 --> 00:52:32,480
Speaker 1: the time, the most humble superstar in this league that

1102
00:52:32,719 --> 00:52:36,400
Speaker 1: nobody talks about. Give this man his love, man, all right,

1103
00:52:36,480 --> 00:52:39,240
Speaker 1: next play we got Darryl Taylor. He sacks Davis Mills

1104
00:52:39,320 --> 00:52:42,080
Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter, second and fourteen, second down and

1105
00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:46,880
Speaker 1: fourteen play fake. Mills wrapped up and dropped Taylor into

1106
00:52:46,920 --> 00:52:49,000
Speaker 1: the backfield, and this time he gets and this time

1107
00:52:49,040 --> 00:52:52,880
Speaker 1: it's gonna count Darryl Taylor with the sock, and that

1108
00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:56,879
Speaker 1: is his sixth sock all the year. This play bump

1109
00:52:57,040 --> 00:52:59,239
Speaker 1: is really simple. First of all, Darryl Taylor is an

1110
00:52:59,239 --> 00:53:02,520
Speaker 1: amazing and he has great get off. And I'm gonna

1111
00:53:02,560 --> 00:53:05,000
Speaker 1: tell you right now, if you're an offensive coordinator somewhere

1112
00:53:05,000 --> 00:53:06,680
Speaker 1: out there the league and you're listening into Hawks Live

1113
00:53:06,800 --> 00:53:09,560
Speaker 1: for some reason on a Thursday night in Seattle at

1114
00:53:09,600 --> 00:53:14,000
Speaker 1: eight o'clock, do not try to pick up Darryl Taylor

1115
00:53:14,200 --> 00:53:17,080
Speaker 1: with a tight end who's motioning across the formation that

1116
00:53:17,320 --> 00:53:20,080
Speaker 1: is in l Throw that out of the playbook. It

1117
00:53:20,239 --> 00:53:22,320
Speaker 1: is not going to help you. Essentially, what happens is

1118
00:53:22,960 --> 00:53:26,480
Speaker 1: the tackle comes down the line of Sacramage towards Alwoods.

1119
00:53:26,480 --> 00:53:28,239
Speaker 1: Get a little Devil team there, and they expect the

1120
00:53:28,360 --> 00:53:31,600
Speaker 1: tight end who's on to Davis's Mills left to come

1121
00:53:31,680 --> 00:53:34,880
Speaker 1: across the formation and pick up and unblock Daryl Taylor.

1122
00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:37,359
Speaker 1: Taylor has a great get off, and there's no chance

1123
00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:39,520
Speaker 1: he this guy has any chance of stopping him, gets

1124
00:53:39,560 --> 00:53:41,640
Speaker 1: by him. Davis Mills has no chance. He goes down

1125
00:53:41,680 --> 00:53:43,640
Speaker 1: for a sack. It would have been a decent completion,

1126
00:53:43,760 --> 00:53:44,920
Speaker 1: not for a lot of yards. It might have got

1127
00:53:44,960 --> 00:53:46,320
Speaker 1: three or four yards if he gets a bout of

1128
00:53:46,320 --> 00:53:48,160
Speaker 1: his hands. But throw that out the playboat. That ain't

1129
00:53:48,160 --> 00:53:53,120
Speaker 1: gonna work. Darryl Taylor's get off is underrated if you

1130
00:53:53,239 --> 00:53:55,920
Speaker 1: just and how often do people just look at the

1131
00:53:56,000 --> 00:53:58,160
Speaker 1: defensive line during a play and say, Okay, I'm gonna

1132
00:53:58,200 --> 00:54:00,800
Speaker 1: hone in on one player. I encourage all you guys

1133
00:54:01,280 --> 00:54:04,400
Speaker 1: three or four times throughout the game on Sunday just

1134
00:54:04,560 --> 00:54:06,839
Speaker 1: locking on Daryl Taylor and see his activity. He might

1135
00:54:06,880 --> 00:54:09,560
Speaker 1: not win that rep, but you see his activity, and

1136
00:54:09,719 --> 00:54:13,239
Speaker 1: he's getting comfortable. Man, he feels that tackle downstep like

1137
00:54:13,280 --> 00:54:15,359
Speaker 1: he's even looking. You look at the tackle, the right

1138
00:54:15,400 --> 00:54:18,600
Speaker 1: tackle's body language, his eyes are inside. He's not even

1139
00:54:18,640 --> 00:54:21,840
Speaker 1: paying attention to Darryl Taylor, and Daryl Taylor playing like

1140
00:54:21,880 --> 00:54:24,000
Speaker 1: a veteran says I can just fire off this football

1141
00:54:24,120 --> 00:54:26,640
Speaker 1: right now and now, like Choby you mentioned, you're asking

1142
00:54:26,719 --> 00:54:30,239
Speaker 1: this tight end to get east west and get out

1143
00:54:30,280 --> 00:54:32,640
Speaker 1: a guy who's going north south downhill right now, who

1144
00:54:32,719 --> 00:54:35,960
Speaker 1: has great hands and great feet, dips that right shoulder,

1145
00:54:36,320 --> 00:54:39,360
Speaker 1: shrugs him off, gets to the quarterback. Darryl Taylor now

1146
00:54:39,480 --> 00:54:41,520
Speaker 1: has six sacks. Big Race, say he's gonna have ten

1147
00:54:41,840 --> 00:54:43,719
Speaker 1: by the end of the season he keeps playing like this.

1148
00:54:43,960 --> 00:54:46,400
Speaker 1: There's a possibility. I hope, Big Race, right, there's got

1149
00:54:46,440 --> 00:54:48,640
Speaker 1: four games left, one sack every game. He gets to ten.

1150
00:54:48,960 --> 00:54:52,319
Speaker 1: Get her done. Det Okay, start the show with Shot Penny.

1151
00:54:52,320 --> 00:54:54,800
Speaker 1: We're gonna break this down. Penny takes a forty seven

1152
00:54:54,920 --> 00:54:58,200
Speaker 1: yard run to the house to still the game. Second

1153
00:54:58,200 --> 00:55:00,840
Speaker 1: down and seven run by Penny left. I break one tackle,

1154
00:55:01,040 --> 00:55:07,560
Speaker 1: first down. He is gone thirty twenty ten, five touchdown. Seahawks.

1155
00:55:08,960 --> 00:55:12,040
Speaker 1: Rashad Penny breaks in at the line of scrimmage and

1156
00:55:12,200 --> 00:55:16,439
Speaker 1: takes off for forty seven yards. There's a hundred plus

1157
00:55:16,640 --> 00:55:20,560
Speaker 1: day for the Seahawks. One hundred thirty seven yards for

1158
00:55:20,880 --> 00:55:24,600
Speaker 1: just Rashawn Penny. One a game. And if you keep

1159
00:55:24,760 --> 00:55:27,759
Speaker 1: doing that, if you keep pounding that line of scrimmage

1160
00:55:27,880 --> 00:55:30,520
Speaker 1: and the defense, one of these is gonna break. And

1161
00:55:30,719 --> 00:55:33,680
Speaker 1: Rashawn has had two of them break today. This is

1162
00:55:33,760 --> 00:55:35,840
Speaker 1: just a numbers game. Man, I think the Hawks and

1163
00:55:35,920 --> 00:55:38,040
Speaker 1: Shane Waldon do a great job here. They line up

1164
00:55:38,080 --> 00:55:39,920
Speaker 1: three tight ends to the right side. That means the

1165
00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:42,279
Speaker 1: Texas gotta bring the finders that way. You have to

1166
00:55:42,320 --> 00:55:45,000
Speaker 1: bring the finders that way. You cannot ignore the three

1167
00:55:45,120 --> 00:55:48,120
Speaker 1: tight ends. They're gonna run away from them. Now, what

1168
00:55:48,280 --> 00:55:51,399
Speaker 1: happens here is our left guard gets the double team,

1169
00:55:51,480 --> 00:55:54,000
Speaker 1: helps the center boom gets to the second level of

1170
00:55:54,040 --> 00:55:56,359
Speaker 1: the linebacker. The right guard gets to the linebacker, gets

1171
00:55:56,400 --> 00:55:58,840
Speaker 1: his hand on the shoulders, and then what really springs.

1172
00:55:58,880 --> 00:56:01,320
Speaker 1: This is DS scridge on. A push crack is what

1173
00:56:01,440 --> 00:56:03,759
Speaker 1: we call it. You push towards the corner, cracked towards

1174
00:56:03,840 --> 00:56:06,560
Speaker 1: the safety, and Rashatt does a great job of being

1175
00:56:06,600 --> 00:56:09,640
Speaker 1: patient and finding his way through. One of the most

1176
00:56:09,680 --> 00:56:12,960
Speaker 1: beautiful things in football is when a run game run

1177
00:56:13,040 --> 00:56:15,360
Speaker 1: just pops Like I'm a receiver. I love roulet combinations,

1178
00:56:15,440 --> 00:56:17,560
Speaker 1: the d ball, all that stuff, but because all the

1179
00:56:17,719 --> 00:56:20,880
Speaker 1: chaos that is in the box in football, when guys

1180
00:56:20,920 --> 00:56:22,920
Speaker 1: get to their spots and do what they have to

1181
00:56:23,000 --> 00:56:25,960
Speaker 1: do and make it easy for running backs, man is beautiful. Yeah,

1182
00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:28,239
Speaker 1: you love it too. Rashad Penny is patient. He's not

1183
00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:30,839
Speaker 1: running in you know, he's patient with the play. Let's

1184
00:56:31,040 --> 00:56:33,040
Speaker 1: the old line do their work, get to the second level.

1185
00:56:33,440 --> 00:56:35,040
Speaker 1: And you mentioned D. S. Rich That's one of my

1186
00:56:35,080 --> 00:56:37,560
Speaker 1: favorite things too, because he gets the safety and that's

1187
00:56:37,600 --> 00:56:40,040
Speaker 1: the block that springs this touchdown. He makes this work

1188
00:56:40,120 --> 00:56:42,200
Speaker 1: at the end of the play. And as a safety

1189
00:56:42,200 --> 00:56:45,000
Speaker 1: coming downhill, you're supposed to not be blocked by receiver, right,

1190
00:56:45,480 --> 00:56:47,399
Speaker 1: especially a guy like D. S. Ridge. D s Ris

1191
00:56:47,440 --> 00:56:49,480
Speaker 1: doesn't kill him, He isn't flatback him because you don't

1192
00:56:49,480 --> 00:56:50,920
Speaker 1: need to do that. You just need to get enough

1193
00:56:50,960 --> 00:56:53,120
Speaker 1: to seal the edge. And then Rashad Penny, you want

1194
00:56:53,160 --> 00:56:55,440
Speaker 1: to talk about speed. If you get number twenty in

1195
00:56:55,560 --> 00:56:57,520
Speaker 1: the open field, good luck because you're not going to

1196
00:56:57,600 --> 00:56:59,160
Speaker 1: catch him. And the one thing I love to watch

1197
00:56:59,200 --> 00:57:01,120
Speaker 1: when you're watching film is the guy who's on the

1198
00:57:01,200 --> 00:57:03,720
Speaker 1: backside the corner the savior angle. One of the fastest

1199
00:57:03,719 --> 00:57:06,000
Speaker 1: guys on the field. He's taking that savior angle and

1200
00:57:06,080 --> 00:57:08,719
Speaker 1: nothing's worse and taking that savior angle, and he's just

1201
00:57:08,760 --> 00:57:11,640
Speaker 1: getting farther and farther away, dusting you in the open field.

1202
00:57:11,680 --> 00:57:14,560
Speaker 1: So great run, great call, good word. Wershot. Penny's showing

1203
00:57:14,600 --> 00:57:18,200
Speaker 1: that speed eight returns in college for a touchdown eight returns. Man.

1204
00:57:18,440 --> 00:57:20,600
Speaker 1: All right, when we come back, we'll go around the NFL.

1205
00:57:20,760 --> 00:57:23,080
Speaker 1: Things just keep getting worse in Jacksville, Mane. You won't

1206
00:57:23,120 --> 00:57:25,920
Speaker 1: believe the latest headlines from the Urban Mara fiasco. You

1207
00:57:25,960 --> 00:57:27,920
Speaker 1: wan't want to miss this conversation up next right here

1208
00:57:27,960 --> 00:57:30,280
Speaker 1: on Hawks Live, Hawks Live on Michael bump Is with

1209
00:57:30,480 --> 00:57:33,080
Speaker 1: Nasa Choby. If you're watching Thursday Night football, there's a

1210
00:57:33,160 --> 00:57:36,320
Speaker 1: game going on twenty eight to twenty eight in overtime.

1211
00:57:36,760 --> 00:57:39,720
Speaker 1: Pat Mahomes and the Chiefs get the ball and they

1212
00:57:39,760 --> 00:57:43,280
Speaker 1: are driving just through a pass to the second best

1213
00:57:43,320 --> 00:57:45,120
Speaker 1: tight end in the league, Travis kel So. We all

1214
00:57:45,280 --> 00:57:48,959
Speaker 1: have anointed George Kittle as the best in the league.

1215
00:57:49,320 --> 00:57:51,280
Speaker 1: But now it's time for us to go around the NFL.

1216
00:57:51,320 --> 00:57:53,520
Speaker 1: And there is a headline that we can not ignore

1217
00:57:55,040 --> 00:58:00,920
Speaker 1: urbing Myer. Just this ain't working out for him. Man first,

1218
00:58:00,960 --> 00:58:04,000
Speaker 1: doing all this social justice stuff going on, he hires

1219
00:58:04,160 --> 00:58:08,120
Speaker 1: a strength and conditioning coach who got fired for racial stuff.

1220
00:58:08,920 --> 00:58:12,320
Speaker 1: Starts off all bad, and then he has this issue

1221
00:58:12,400 --> 00:58:15,960
Speaker 1: where he decides to stay and I think we decided

1222
00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:20,640
Speaker 1: it's Cincinnati. Cincinnati stays back behind, has his team flies

1223
00:58:20,720 --> 00:58:23,160
Speaker 1: back home. Then he's caught in a bar, young lady

1224
00:58:23,200 --> 00:58:25,600
Speaker 1: around him. I believe he's married with kids. Sure is

1225
00:58:25,720 --> 00:58:29,200
Speaker 1: not a good look urban and goes around and he

1226
00:58:29,360 --> 00:58:32,720
Speaker 1: has his coaches standing up in a meeting and explain

1227
00:58:33,160 --> 00:58:35,880
Speaker 1: what they've done, just to let them know you haven't

1228
00:58:35,920 --> 00:58:38,680
Speaker 1: done as much as me, So simmer down. Then he

1229
00:58:38,760 --> 00:58:42,760
Speaker 1: kicks his kicker. I mean, this dude from day one

1230
00:58:43,360 --> 00:58:48,600
Speaker 1: has started his NFL career horribly, and because we keep

1231
00:58:48,680 --> 00:58:52,360
Speaker 1: getting offenses. That's just who he is. He must be

1232
00:58:52,400 --> 00:58:54,200
Speaker 1: a heck of an interview. He must know how to

1233
00:58:54,280 --> 00:58:56,680
Speaker 1: interview and hit all the points and come dress correctly

1234
00:58:56,760 --> 00:59:01,400
Speaker 1: and resume's own point. Obviously, but he is what his

1235
00:59:01,520 --> 00:59:04,200
Speaker 1: history says. He is, no question about it. Obviously we

1236
00:59:04,320 --> 00:59:06,320
Speaker 1: know he has one heck of a football coach. He

1237
00:59:06,440 --> 00:59:09,200
Speaker 1: started at Bowling Green, was successful at Utah with Alex

1238
00:59:09,280 --> 00:59:13,480
Speaker 1: Smith Boom. Goes to Florida, incredibly successful there, a national championships,

1239
00:59:13,520 --> 00:59:17,000
Speaker 1: goes to Ohio State, wins national championships. But you know

1240
00:59:17,080 --> 00:59:20,360
Speaker 1: it's in common in all the spots he left behind

1241
00:59:21,080 --> 00:59:24,560
Speaker 1: a lot of controversy, carnage. You leave Florida with a

1242
00:59:24,680 --> 00:59:26,720
Speaker 1: whole bunch of stuff going on, and before you get

1243
00:59:26,760 --> 00:59:28,160
Speaker 1: out of there before there could be any kind of

1244
00:59:28,200 --> 00:59:31,360
Speaker 1: sanctions game over by the Kansas City Chiefs. By the way,

1245
00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:34,960
Speaker 1: that games over Travis Kelsey's calling out. Yeah, anyway, So

1246
00:59:35,080 --> 00:59:37,840
Speaker 1: he leaves Florida and Shambulls to get away from racuit violations.

1247
00:59:38,120 --> 00:59:41,360
Speaker 1: Then at Ohio State when one of his assistant coaches

1248
00:59:41,640 --> 00:59:44,960
Speaker 1: had some domestic violence incidents and urban Meyer not only

1249
00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:46,840
Speaker 1: covered up for him, and then when all the heat

1250
00:59:46,880 --> 00:59:49,360
Speaker 1: started happening, he started having her problems. Yeah, so he

1251
00:59:49,400 --> 00:59:51,120
Speaker 1: walks away from Ohio State. Then he gets a great

1252
00:59:51,160 --> 00:59:53,480
Speaker 1: job at Fox calling games and he was actually I

1253
00:59:53,680 --> 00:59:55,960
Speaker 1: liked him as an analyst because he was good. Right,

1254
00:59:56,920 --> 00:59:58,600
Speaker 1: And then it's the time, Hey, I need to get

1255
00:59:58,640 --> 01:00:02,040
Speaker 1: back into coaching a coach with Jacksonal Jaguars. Shad con

1256
01:00:02,120 --> 01:00:04,680
Speaker 1: takes an opportunity on him. He has a great resume

1257
01:00:04,840 --> 01:00:07,440
Speaker 1: Florida area. Probably will never buy a drink again in Gainesville.

1258
01:00:08,360 --> 01:00:11,080
Speaker 1: And it doesn't work. And here's the thing, bub when

1259
01:00:11,120 --> 01:00:13,800
Speaker 1: you treat people like this, forget about college kids, which

1260
01:00:13,840 --> 01:00:15,880
Speaker 1: is wrong, but when you treat grown men like this

1261
01:00:16,040 --> 01:00:19,280
Speaker 1: in their coaching staff, especially because out here in Seattle.

1262
01:00:19,720 --> 01:00:21,480
Speaker 1: I'll speak for myself, mad love for a lot of

1263
01:00:21,520 --> 01:00:25,760
Speaker 1: the coaches down there, Darryl bever Bevil, Brian Schottenheimer, San j. Law.

1264
01:00:25,840 --> 01:00:28,640
Speaker 1: There's a ton of ex Seahawk ties there, and I

1265
01:00:28,800 --> 01:00:31,480
Speaker 1: just feel for them because they went from coaching under

1266
01:00:31,520 --> 01:00:36,400
Speaker 1: Pete Carroll, John Schneider, Paul Allen, an amazingly run franchise

1267
01:00:36,520 --> 01:00:40,440
Speaker 1: top to bottom with structure and everything about it, and

1268
01:00:40,520 --> 01:00:42,520
Speaker 1: then to end up in Jacksonville, and really bad for

1269
01:00:42,680 --> 01:00:45,360
Speaker 1: Beville because you went to Detroit then jackson But I

1270
01:00:45,480 --> 01:00:47,920
Speaker 1: just can't imagine that these are grown men. Are you

1271
01:00:48,040 --> 01:00:50,120
Speaker 1: kidding me? With families? And you're just a nine stuff

1272
01:00:50,160 --> 01:00:54,080
Speaker 1: And everything about Urban Man makes me sick. Though. What

1273
01:00:54,280 --> 01:00:57,960
Speaker 1: hurts me the most, at least when I started coaching

1274
01:00:58,360 --> 01:01:01,360
Speaker 1: as a head coach in twenty fifteen. Every year I

1275
01:01:01,480 --> 01:01:03,720
Speaker 1: take a book from a head coach. I'm gonna read

1276
01:01:03,800 --> 01:01:06,040
Speaker 1: this book. He's been successful, Let's see what he does.

1277
01:01:06,160 --> 01:01:09,560
Speaker 1: The first one I read was Pete Carroll. Yep, whatever,

1278
01:01:10,120 --> 01:01:12,920
Speaker 1: Yogi Roth, big up, Yogi, He'll write that fam Then

1279
01:01:13,000 --> 01:01:15,760
Speaker 1: I read Tony Dungee's book, one of Tony Dungee's books.

1280
01:01:16,320 --> 01:01:18,439
Speaker 1: Then my third year, I'm going Urban Meyer Man, He's

1281
01:01:18,440 --> 01:01:21,760
Speaker 1: not a lot read the story in order. Dame Bowling Green.

1282
01:01:22,160 --> 01:01:25,040
Speaker 1: He has rules set in place man coaches will not.

1283
01:01:25,600 --> 01:01:29,439
Speaker 1: If coaches are caught doing any type of infidelity, they're gone.

1284
01:01:29,560 --> 01:01:32,280
Speaker 1: Like they're kind of drinking, they're gone. If they disrespect players,

1285
01:01:32,520 --> 01:01:34,920
Speaker 1: they are gone. And I'm reading this and I'm building

1286
01:01:35,040 --> 01:01:38,720
Speaker 1: my program every year with these pillars that he speaks

1287
01:01:38,760 --> 01:01:41,000
Speaker 1: about in his book. Then I watch it all go

1288
01:01:41,200 --> 01:01:44,040
Speaker 1: down in Jacksonville. I'm like, well, we've seen it happening

1289
01:01:44,120 --> 01:01:46,760
Speaker 1: before Jacksonville, but in Jacksonville was like it was clear,

1290
01:01:47,320 --> 01:01:51,440
Speaker 1: like this guy, you can't lead the young men if

1291
01:01:51,520 --> 01:01:55,080
Speaker 1: you can't lead yourself. You can't lead grown men if

1292
01:01:55,160 --> 01:01:58,440
Speaker 1: you can't lead yourself. So that the book that I

1293
01:01:58,600 --> 01:02:01,240
Speaker 1: read it was like three one hundred and something pages.

1294
01:02:01,520 --> 01:02:04,120
Speaker 1: It's just all false to me now. And I contribute.

1295
01:02:04,160 --> 01:02:06,240
Speaker 1: I gave this man some m on money and he's

1296
01:02:06,240 --> 01:02:09,800
Speaker 1: straight duped me. Well, and the thing you mentioned it,

1297
01:02:09,920 --> 01:02:12,680
Speaker 1: it's been at every level since he got there. We

1298
01:02:12,920 --> 01:02:15,320
Speaker 1: know we forgot. He brought in Tim Tebow, who has

1299
01:02:15,400 --> 01:02:18,080
Speaker 1: never played tighten in the National Football League, and he said,

1300
01:02:18,160 --> 01:02:19,720
Speaker 1: you know what, I want to bring you in and

1301
01:02:19,840 --> 01:02:22,160
Speaker 1: play tight end with people who played this game in

1302
01:02:22,280 --> 01:02:27,080
Speaker 1: tight end their entire lives. Okay, So I mean, you're

1303
01:02:27,120 --> 01:02:29,520
Speaker 1: just so tone deaf. It doesn't make sense a message

1304
01:02:29,520 --> 01:02:30,960
Speaker 1: to the locker room that we're trying to win HI,

1305
01:02:30,960 --> 01:02:33,320
Speaker 1: when you bringing guys never played that position and it's

1306
01:02:33,360 --> 01:02:35,480
Speaker 1: been out the league for that long. When you have

1307
01:02:35,560 --> 01:02:38,200
Speaker 1: all these guys grinding into everything they can to stay

1308
01:02:38,240 --> 01:02:40,480
Speaker 1: in the league, so you have that, then a little thing.

1309
01:02:40,920 --> 01:02:43,760
Speaker 1: They get blown out by the Titans. Right game's over.

1310
01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:46,160
Speaker 1: Coaches walk to the middle field, they shake hands, have

1311
01:02:46,320 --> 01:02:49,640
Speaker 1: respect for you, but he doesn't even look at vable

1312
01:02:49,640 --> 01:02:51,640
Speaker 1: as he just goes with a quick handshake and walks away,

1313
01:02:51,720 --> 01:02:55,680
Speaker 1: looks unbelief. That's what I was about to say. I

1314
01:02:55,760 --> 01:02:57,880
Speaker 1: can't like you're you're telling me this man went to

1315
01:02:57,920 --> 01:02:59,600
Speaker 1: war for you and you can't even you can't even

1316
01:02:59,640 --> 01:03:02,480
Speaker 1: look him in the eye and shake his hand. It's

1317
01:03:02,520 --> 01:03:04,520
Speaker 1: just a low low man. You know what I'm gonna say.

1318
01:03:04,640 --> 01:03:08,920
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say I probably would have liked bowling Green Urban. Yes,

1319
01:03:08,960 --> 01:03:12,680
Speaker 1: it's getting started. You're hungry, you're grateful for the opportunity.

1320
01:03:13,000 --> 01:03:16,040
Speaker 1: Once you start winning, you go to Utah, you Alex Smith,

1321
01:03:16,120 --> 01:03:19,520
Speaker 1: you start winning, you go to Florida and that team

1322
01:03:19,680 --> 01:03:22,160
Speaker 1: is full of guys who just were not good guys

1323
01:03:22,240 --> 01:03:26,880
Speaker 1: either him. Tebow's good as again, but there's some other

1324
01:03:26,920 --> 01:03:30,200
Speaker 1: stuff going on. So now you're recruiting guys. I would

1325
01:03:30,200 --> 01:03:32,040
Speaker 1: like to think as a recruiter like you, you can

1326
01:03:32,120 --> 01:03:33,720
Speaker 1: sense if this is a good kid or not. So

1327
01:03:33,840 --> 01:03:37,240
Speaker 1: he doesn't have a good jazzure character, but he keep

1328
01:03:37,360 --> 01:03:40,080
Speaker 1: he kept getting jobs, so he's doing something right. In

1329
01:03:40,160 --> 01:03:42,560
Speaker 1: these interviews, he is presenting himself the right way. But

1330
01:03:42,680 --> 01:03:45,160
Speaker 1: when it comes down to it, Danilovsky said it the

1331
01:03:45,240 --> 01:03:47,240
Speaker 1: best this morning. I believe it was first take I

1332
01:03:47,360 --> 01:03:49,160
Speaker 1: was watching. He goes, he's just not a good guy.

1333
01:03:49,400 --> 01:03:50,640
Speaker 1: That's what it comes down to. It might be a

1334
01:03:50,680 --> 01:03:54,240
Speaker 1: good football coach, but you gotta be both. You gotta

1335
01:03:54,240 --> 01:03:56,960
Speaker 1: be at least a decent human being and a good

1336
01:03:57,040 --> 01:03:59,640
Speaker 1: football coach. It's yeah, you look at it and it's

1337
01:03:59,640 --> 01:04:02,440
Speaker 1: just a I mean, I would say I'm surprised, but

1338
01:04:02,520 --> 01:04:04,400
Speaker 1: I'm not because we kind of felt like this was

1339
01:04:04,480 --> 01:04:08,600
Speaker 1: coming this entire time. But urban man, when you got

1340
01:04:08,640 --> 01:04:10,520
Speaker 1: a family and you got kids, and you're you're putting

1341
01:04:10,520 --> 01:04:12,480
Speaker 1: that out there for everybody, it's hard. And here's it's

1342
01:04:12,480 --> 01:04:15,200
Speaker 1: how you know it's bad. It's not quite getting fired

1343
01:04:15,200 --> 01:04:18,000
Speaker 1: here and day off Craig, but it was close to

1344
01:04:18,120 --> 01:04:20,040
Speaker 1: it because it was at midnight when you get I

1345
01:04:20,080 --> 01:04:22,400
Speaker 1: saw the Lord on my phone. I go, dang, it's

1346
01:04:22,480 --> 01:04:25,080
Speaker 1: I'm in bed already. I'm like, wait, it's three hours

1347
01:04:25,120 --> 01:04:27,480
Speaker 1: in the East Coast. I try to sneak that in

1348
01:04:27,520 --> 01:04:31,880
Speaker 1: there real quick. Right, Hey, I'm not saying that like

1349
01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:34,400
Speaker 1: you have to be a saint, of course not. Nobody's

1350
01:04:34,400 --> 01:04:37,680
Speaker 1: a freaking saint. And especially in the NFL, like the

1351
01:04:37,840 --> 01:04:41,720
Speaker 1: culture is it's very aggressive at times. I mean, we're

1352
01:04:41,800 --> 01:04:43,880
Speaker 1: lucky out here in Seattle. The culture is a bit different,

1353
01:04:44,240 --> 01:04:47,560
Speaker 1: but there's aggressive. It's my cheesemo. There's some change that's

1354
01:04:47,600 --> 01:04:50,080
Speaker 1: been happening in the NFL just because of the reputation

1355
01:04:50,160 --> 01:04:53,360
Speaker 1: that it's had, and I think Urban Myers. Myers one

1356
01:04:53,400 --> 01:04:58,120
Speaker 1: of the guys who helped push that culture. You know, Grant, thankfully,

1357
01:04:58,120 --> 01:04:59,520
Speaker 1: he's only been in the league one year. He helped

1358
01:04:59,560 --> 01:05:02,880
Speaker 1: push the negative culture in football in general over the

1359
01:05:03,000 --> 01:05:05,120
Speaker 1: years and it's coming to light right now. But the

1360
01:05:05,240 --> 01:05:07,960
Speaker 1: thing about him is he's still getting paid, he's still

1361
01:05:08,000 --> 01:05:10,840
Speaker 1: a rich man. He's still gonna live a very good life.

1362
01:05:11,040 --> 01:05:13,680
Speaker 1: And we'll be here talking about him and if this

1363
01:05:13,840 --> 01:05:16,919
Speaker 1: thing will blow over, and like what six months, eight months,

1364
01:05:17,080 --> 01:05:19,080
Speaker 1: he'll be back into Power five. We'll be back on

1365
01:05:19,200 --> 01:05:21,200
Speaker 1: TV and it'll be like nothing ever happened. He can

1366
01:05:21,240 --> 01:05:23,920
Speaker 1: look Remorsefi'll talk about TV. I had this going on,

1367
01:05:24,080 --> 01:05:25,560
Speaker 1: this going on my heart and will be fine and

1368
01:05:25,840 --> 01:05:28,640
Speaker 1: pretend like nothing happened. Yeah, poor urbant Meyer. Negative. Okay,

1369
01:05:28,720 --> 01:05:30,720
Speaker 1: when we return, we'll give you our final thoughts and

1370
01:05:30,960 --> 01:05:35,080
Speaker 1: keys to victory right here on hats lock hot slide

1371
01:05:35,200 --> 01:05:38,480
Speaker 1: for the very last Thursday of this football season is

1372
01:05:38,520 --> 01:05:41,640
Speaker 1: coming to an end. But it's all good. Thank you

1373
01:05:41,720 --> 01:05:43,520
Speaker 1: guys for hanging in there with us. I know my

1374
01:05:43,680 --> 01:05:48,040
Speaker 1: boys c J. Marson, Ross McPherson have been on us

1375
01:05:48,120 --> 01:05:51,200
Speaker 1: all year, on me at least, pointing out all my flaws.

1376
01:05:51,720 --> 01:05:54,680
Speaker 1: But good friends keep you humble. We need that exactly.

1377
01:05:54,800 --> 01:05:57,200
Speaker 1: I'm happy my wife was listening. You know, hasn't texted

1378
01:05:57,240 --> 01:06:00,240
Speaker 1: me anything, only nice things, which isn't true. But I'll

1379
01:06:01,320 --> 01:06:03,880
Speaker 1: we'll take it all right. So our final thoughts. One,

1380
01:06:03,880 --> 01:06:05,720
Speaker 1: I'm gonna throw out there that Irban Meyer should not

1381
01:06:05,800 --> 01:06:09,120
Speaker 1: coach an NFL again. That's a final thought. Don't worry.

1382
01:06:09,160 --> 01:06:13,160
Speaker 1: I don't think collaborat opportunity. Another final thought is I'd

1383
01:06:13,240 --> 01:06:16,200
Speaker 1: love to see Rashad pinning back up his performance. Man,

1384
01:06:16,640 --> 01:06:19,720
Speaker 1: just for him, not for us it's gonna benefit us,

1385
01:06:20,000 --> 01:06:23,040
Speaker 1: the Seahawks, but for him, for his mental for his psyche,

1386
01:06:23,440 --> 01:06:25,720
Speaker 1: for his image that he has in the NFL. Right now,

1387
01:06:26,000 --> 01:06:28,080
Speaker 1: I want to see Rashad Penny go off and I

1388
01:06:28,120 --> 01:06:31,760
Speaker 1: want to see DK get the better of Jalen Ramsey. Absolutely.

1389
01:06:31,800 --> 01:06:33,760
Speaker 1: I think we talked about in the postgame show, at

1390
01:06:33,800 --> 01:06:36,600
Speaker 1: least you guys did with Rashad, how he's just matured

1391
01:06:36,640 --> 01:06:39,200
Speaker 1: and got to this point. He's had all these injuries,

1392
01:06:39,240 --> 01:06:41,640
Speaker 1: dealt with all this stuff, and he finally because he

1393
01:06:41,760 --> 01:06:43,640
Speaker 1: was looking at social media, he was looking at Twitter,

1394
01:06:43,760 --> 01:06:45,880
Speaker 1: he was looking at all these people coming after him,

1395
01:06:46,120 --> 01:06:49,160
Speaker 1: and that's a dark place, man. Twitter is a dark,

1396
01:06:49,760 --> 01:06:52,360
Speaker 1: dark place, especially when you're not playing well. So I

1397
01:06:52,440 --> 01:06:54,160
Speaker 1: feel for him, and he finally was like, listen, this

1398
01:06:54,320 --> 01:06:56,160
Speaker 1: is not good for me. This is not healthy for me.

1399
01:06:56,440 --> 01:06:59,000
Speaker 1: I mean, the vile things people say to these guys,

1400
01:06:59,080 --> 01:07:02,120
Speaker 1: it's it's unbelievable. I've seen some of them. So he

1401
01:07:02,280 --> 01:07:04,040
Speaker 1: made a conscious decision like I'm not gonna look at

1402
01:07:04,040 --> 01:07:06,760
Speaker 1: that nonsense no more, and you come back in this season.

1403
01:07:06,800 --> 01:07:08,600
Speaker 1: He's not paying attention to any of that he's finally

1404
01:07:08,640 --> 01:07:11,480
Speaker 1: getting back healthy and then gets banged up. Then he

1405
01:07:11,520 --> 01:07:13,680
Speaker 1: has that great running against the Cardinals eighteen yards. He

1406
01:07:13,720 --> 01:07:14,920
Speaker 1: thought he's gonna go to the house. He thought he's

1407
01:07:14,920 --> 01:07:17,680
Speaker 1: gonna have a great game, booming to Hammy again. Then

1408
01:07:17,720 --> 01:07:20,200
Speaker 1: he misses a game and you're thinking, man, this is it.

1409
01:07:20,680 --> 01:07:23,080
Speaker 1: We've seen the last Rashod Penny. But he comes back

1410
01:07:23,120 --> 01:07:24,960
Speaker 1: against the forty nine ers, has a great game, not

1411
01:07:25,040 --> 01:07:26,840
Speaker 1: crazy in the stat sheet, but has a nice pick

1412
01:07:26,920 --> 01:07:29,560
Speaker 1: up here, a nice screen pass here, doing a good job.

1413
01:07:29,920 --> 01:07:32,800
Speaker 1: Then last week goes off. So, like you mentioned, I

1414
01:07:32,840 --> 01:07:34,400
Speaker 1: want to see him do it again. I know he

1415
01:07:34,680 --> 01:07:37,000
Speaker 1: has more one hundred yard games in him, not necessarily

1416
01:07:37,080 --> 01:07:38,680
Speaker 1: going to happen this week against the Rams, but I

1417
01:07:38,720 --> 01:07:41,480
Speaker 1: just want to see him have success, continue to stay healthy,

1418
01:07:41,840 --> 01:07:43,440
Speaker 1: and guess what if he balls out the rest of

1419
01:07:43,440 --> 01:07:45,240
Speaker 1: the year, the Seahawks find a crazy way to get

1420
01:07:45,280 --> 01:07:48,080
Speaker 1: to the playoffs, maybe Rashad Penny's back in the Seahawk

1421
01:07:48,160 --> 01:07:51,360
Speaker 1: uniform next year. And that's a crazy statement because no

1422
01:07:51,520 --> 01:07:54,040
Speaker 1: one in Seattle would have thought that leading up to

1423
01:07:54,120 --> 01:07:56,560
Speaker 1: this stretch run here. So I'm happy to see Rashod

1424
01:07:56,600 --> 01:07:59,280
Speaker 1: balling out. Another thing I want to see. I want

1425
01:07:59,320 --> 01:08:02,040
Speaker 1: to see the Sea how continue to be good on

1426
01:08:02,200 --> 01:08:04,280
Speaker 1: third downs. I think that was huge. There were seven

1427
01:08:04,320 --> 01:08:08,880
Speaker 1: to thirteen against the Texans. Texans aren't weren't a great

1428
01:08:08,920 --> 01:08:10,880
Speaker 1: defense when it comes to third downs, but you took

1429
01:08:10,920 --> 01:08:14,200
Speaker 1: advantage of what they didn't do well third down convergence.

1430
01:08:14,520 --> 01:08:17,320
Speaker 1: Also want to see them possess the football. I want

1431
01:08:17,360 --> 01:08:20,040
Speaker 1: to see long sustaining drives. I don't think I think

1432
01:08:20,080 --> 01:08:23,439
Speaker 1: we've seen one or two drives this year over fourteen plays.

1433
01:08:23,720 --> 01:08:26,560
Speaker 1: Typically they're scoring on nine to ten play drives or

1434
01:08:26,720 --> 01:08:29,120
Speaker 1: one to two plays. With the big play. You gotta

1435
01:08:29,120 --> 01:08:31,759
Speaker 1: find a way to mix in the big play drives

1436
01:08:32,120 --> 01:08:34,559
Speaker 1: and the longer drives, no question about it. And when

1437
01:08:34,560 --> 01:08:37,200
Speaker 1: you have long drives, you start winning time of possession.

1438
01:08:37,560 --> 01:08:39,640
Speaker 1: The Seahawks didn't win time of possession last week, but

1439
01:08:39,680 --> 01:08:41,920
Speaker 1: as long as it's close, that's fine. Which you don't

1440
01:08:41,960 --> 01:08:43,760
Speaker 1: want to see is games were I think it was

1441
01:08:43,840 --> 01:08:47,080
Speaker 1: Washington where you it was like forty one to eighteen

1442
01:08:47,240 --> 01:08:49,639
Speaker 1: or forty one nineteen, whatever it was. I gotta stay

1443
01:08:49,640 --> 01:08:51,400
Speaker 1: on the field. And how do you do that? You

1444
01:08:51,479 --> 01:08:54,240
Speaker 1: stay on it with long possessions on offense and defensively.

1445
01:08:54,320 --> 01:08:56,880
Speaker 1: The Seahawks have been great on third downs for the

1446
01:08:57,080 --> 01:08:59,479
Speaker 1: entire season, where they kind of slipped up with Green

1447
01:08:59,560 --> 01:09:02,559
Speaker 1: Bay as Donna they allowed seven of fourteen, but outside

1448
01:09:02,600 --> 01:09:05,559
Speaker 1: of that they've done great five or thirteen it's Washington

1449
01:09:05,720 --> 01:09:08,320
Speaker 1: three of ten against San France and three of thirteen

1450
01:09:08,400 --> 01:09:10,960
Speaker 1: against Houston. And then just to piggyback off of that,

1451
01:09:11,240 --> 01:09:14,479
Speaker 1: while playing good defense in the second half of games,

1452
01:09:15,439 --> 01:09:18,240
Speaker 1: the Seahawks will only allowed eighteen points in the last

1453
01:09:18,479 --> 01:09:21,639
Speaker 1: four games in the second half, So they're playing good

1454
01:09:21,680 --> 01:09:24,439
Speaker 1: football back to back shutouts the last two weeks in

1455
01:09:24,560 --> 01:09:27,439
Speaker 1: the second half. So continue doing that and the Seahawks

1456
01:09:27,520 --> 01:09:29,559
Speaker 1: are gonna have a great shot to be the Rams.

1457
01:09:29,680 --> 01:09:31,880
Speaker 1: And I think they have a good chance to be

1458
01:09:32,000 --> 01:09:34,439
Speaker 1: successful on third downs. The Rams are twenty third in

1459
01:09:34,479 --> 01:09:37,519
Speaker 1: the league allowing forty three percent of their third downs

1460
01:09:37,560 --> 01:09:39,880
Speaker 1: to be converted. The Hawks and number seven in the

1461
01:09:39,960 --> 01:09:43,160
Speaker 1: league allowing thirty five. So here's another chance in other

1462
01:09:43,200 --> 01:09:45,840
Speaker 1: weeks where the numbers say they should be okay, they

1463
01:09:45,880 --> 01:09:47,960
Speaker 1: should be good to go. Another thing, I don't want

1464
01:09:48,040 --> 01:09:50,800
Speaker 1: Lenda Floyd to ball out again get eight sacks against

1465
01:09:50,840 --> 01:09:53,479
Speaker 1: the Hawks slash here eight and two games. He made

1466
01:09:53,520 --> 01:09:56,560
Speaker 1: his money off the Hawks slash year Leonard Floord the

1467
01:09:56,640 --> 01:09:59,160
Speaker 1: great ball player. You need to contain that man, and

1468
01:09:59,240 --> 01:10:02,280
Speaker 1: that's easier set and you got Aaron Donald, got Leonard Floyd.

1469
01:10:02,320 --> 01:10:05,080
Speaker 1: These guys are gonna get after the quarterback. But I

1470
01:10:05,160 --> 01:10:07,320
Speaker 1: feel like if Leonard Floyd has a big day, it's

1471
01:10:07,439 --> 01:10:09,400
Speaker 1: worse than Aaron Donald have a big day having a

1472
01:10:09,439 --> 01:10:12,320
Speaker 1: big day because you just automatically assume that's gonna happen, right, right,

1473
01:10:12,439 --> 01:10:14,720
Speaker 1: Leonard Floyd is like hit or miss. Eventually his year

1474
01:10:14,800 --> 01:10:17,559
Speaker 1: is gonna be good. But let's not have a career

1475
01:10:17,640 --> 01:10:19,559
Speaker 1: against the Hawks like he has the last few times

1476
01:10:19,600 --> 01:10:21,160
Speaker 1: they play. Yeah, I just don't I don't want to

1477
01:10:21,160 --> 01:10:23,040
Speaker 1: see Rust get hit. I don't want to see Rust

1478
01:10:23,080 --> 01:10:24,880
Speaker 1: get hit six seven times. I don't want to see

1479
01:10:25,080 --> 01:10:26,880
Speaker 1: him get beat up with all these quarterback hits and

1480
01:10:26,920 --> 01:10:29,639
Speaker 1: get sacked four or five times, because those are drive killers.

1481
01:10:29,960 --> 01:10:32,439
Speaker 1: Those when the Seahawks give up a sack or they

1482
01:10:32,520 --> 01:10:36,320
Speaker 1: go second and thirteen, third and eighteen bump you were

1483
01:10:36,400 --> 01:10:38,240
Speaker 1: no seat, Those are drive killers. The drive is now

1484
01:10:38,320 --> 01:10:42,200
Speaker 1: over unless borrowing him miraculous play. So keep Russell upright,

1485
01:10:42,200 --> 01:10:43,720
Speaker 1: and that's gonna help with the running game and to

1486
01:10:43,880 --> 01:10:46,040
Speaker 1: do all that bump you talk about Leonard Floyd and

1487
01:10:46,080 --> 01:10:49,080
Speaker 1: Aaron Donald. You gotta run right Aaron Donald, Right. I mean,

1488
01:10:49,120 --> 01:10:50,800
Speaker 1: I feel like he's the type of dude you run

1489
01:10:50,840 --> 01:10:52,479
Speaker 1: away from him to go stuff the outside. He's gonna

1490
01:10:52,520 --> 01:10:54,479
Speaker 1: chase it down and make the tackle anyway, right, Yep.

1491
01:10:54,600 --> 01:10:56,880
Speaker 1: You gotta run right at him and stay committed, and

1492
01:10:57,040 --> 01:10:59,519
Speaker 1: I think good things canna happen. Another thing that I

1493
01:11:00,240 --> 01:11:02,760
Speaker 1: to see happen is Matthew Stafford. I need to see

1494
01:11:02,840 --> 01:11:05,880
Speaker 1: him flustered in the backfield. I need to see him

1495
01:11:06,080 --> 01:11:10,559
Speaker 1: look like when he threw five interceptions in three games

1496
01:11:10,680 --> 01:11:13,120
Speaker 1: against three against the Green Bay Packers. Excuse me, one

1497
01:11:13,120 --> 01:11:16,839
Speaker 1: against the Packers, two against San fran two against Tennessee.

1498
01:11:16,920 --> 01:11:20,879
Speaker 1: Five interceptions in three games. Why because he got pressure

1499
01:11:20,960 --> 01:11:23,280
Speaker 1: on him and they stayed over the top with these receivers.

1500
01:11:23,360 --> 01:11:25,760
Speaker 1: We know what Cooper Cup's gonna do. He's gonna get

1501
01:11:25,880 --> 01:11:30,439
Speaker 1: his but force Matthew Stafford to turn the ball over. Yeah, man,

1502
01:11:30,479 --> 01:11:32,280
Speaker 1: they don't. They do a great job in protection. They've

1503
01:11:32,320 --> 01:11:34,360
Speaker 1: only he's only been sacked twenty or twenty one times

1504
01:11:34,479 --> 01:11:38,240
Speaker 1: this season. Whit worse out there at tackle. He's forty

1505
01:11:38,320 --> 01:11:41,479
Speaker 1: years old. He is still doing it older than me

1506
01:11:41,680 --> 01:11:44,479
Speaker 1: at forty years old, Darryl Taylor, you got some young

1507
01:11:44,560 --> 01:11:47,040
Speaker 1: blood and you beat the old man, the dad with

1508
01:11:47,240 --> 01:11:51,080
Speaker 1: the beard and everything. You know. I mean, I'm heading

1509
01:11:51,120 --> 01:11:53,840
Speaker 1: in that direction. He's got some time a lead on me.

1510
01:11:53,920 --> 01:11:55,840
Speaker 1: So I'm not throwing too much shade at that age room.

1511
01:11:56,080 --> 01:11:57,599
Speaker 1: But for real, though, you just need to get after

1512
01:11:57,640 --> 01:11:59,840
Speaker 1: these guys. Stafford will get the ball out quick. But

1513
01:12:00,120 --> 01:12:05,040
Speaker 1: Darryl Taylor needs to build out that game. Carlos Dunlap

1514
01:12:05,280 --> 01:12:07,320
Speaker 1: needs when he's in the football game, he needs to

1515
01:12:07,320 --> 01:12:10,599
Speaker 1: get out to the quarterback, Alton Robinson, punafod guys locking

1516
01:12:10,680 --> 01:12:12,559
Speaker 1: up in the middle. It needs to be joint effort.

1517
01:12:12,600 --> 01:12:16,880
Speaker 1: You need to get Matthew Stafford uncomfortable quarterback, hits, pressure

1518
01:12:16,960 --> 01:12:19,120
Speaker 1: him and good things lapping. And if you win this game,

1519
01:12:19,200 --> 01:12:21,240
Speaker 1: that's three games in a row. Haven't done that all year.

1520
01:12:21,280 --> 01:12:23,439
Speaker 1: You've already went back to back games. It's your first

1521
01:12:23,520 --> 01:12:26,519
Speaker 1: time you win three in a row. All right, These

1522
01:12:26,600 --> 01:12:28,240
Speaker 1: next two games are set up for you to do

1523
01:12:28,360 --> 01:12:30,600
Speaker 1: what you gotta do and then we can then you

1524
01:12:30,680 --> 01:12:32,400
Speaker 1: can get in the lab and run all the numbers

1525
01:12:32,479 --> 01:12:35,000
Speaker 1: when it comes to playoffs against the Cardinals and be like, look,

1526
01:12:35,080 --> 01:12:37,160
Speaker 1: this is what needs to happen and we can sit

1527
01:12:37,280 --> 01:12:39,840
Speaker 1: around like we got brackets and march madness and this

1528
01:12:40,000 --> 01:12:42,680
Speaker 1: watch people knock each other out and see who does what.

1529
01:12:43,000 --> 01:12:45,360
Speaker 1: But it starts with this game. You are in LA.

1530
01:12:45,600 --> 01:12:49,240
Speaker 1: You're in LA. You're on the road, Hollywood. Hopefully. I

1531
01:12:49,360 --> 01:12:51,920
Speaker 1: hope all the guys on the Rams roster who has COVID,

1532
01:12:51,960 --> 01:12:54,040
Speaker 1: I hope it's not serious. I hope you are healthy,

1533
01:12:54,080 --> 01:12:56,679
Speaker 1: you bounce back, but I hope you don't play because

1534
01:12:57,000 --> 01:12:59,439
Speaker 1: I wouldn't mind a Hawks getting a break this weekend. Yeah,

1535
01:12:59,439 --> 01:13:02,080
Speaker 1: hopefully they all asymptomatic and they are back in better

1536
01:13:02,160 --> 01:13:06,080
Speaker 1: than ever. But what I want is, yeah, listen, it

1537
01:13:06,240 --> 01:13:07,720
Speaker 1: is what it is. Man. I want the Seahawks win

1538
01:13:07,760 --> 01:13:10,280
Speaker 1: this football game. They need you. It would be great

1539
01:13:10,320 --> 01:13:12,200
Speaker 1: to end the year. Because here's the thing. Since Pete

1540
01:13:12,240 --> 01:13:16,080
Speaker 1: Carroll has been here, they don't play meaningless games in Seattle. Ever.

1541
01:13:16,520 --> 01:13:18,840
Speaker 1: If they don't, that's not the standard here, that's not

1542
01:13:18,920 --> 01:13:20,720
Speaker 1: the standard they set. They never do it, and I

1543
01:13:20,720 --> 01:13:23,799
Speaker 1: don't want it to start now, huge, huge game on Sunday.

1544
01:13:23,960 --> 01:13:26,280
Speaker 1: It sounds like a movie, you know, Sleepless in Seattle.

1545
01:13:26,400 --> 01:13:30,719
Speaker 1: Meaningless games in Seattle's let's never Let's not make that movie,

1546
01:13:30,840 --> 01:13:33,120
Speaker 1: let's not make it. Another thing I want to see

1547
01:13:33,439 --> 01:13:36,080
Speaker 1: is Russell Wilson continues to be efficient man, and I

1548
01:13:36,520 --> 01:13:39,679
Speaker 1: want to see him be vocal again, Like I feel

1549
01:13:39,720 --> 01:13:41,280
Speaker 1: like I haven't seen himself for that one time when

1550
01:13:42,240 --> 01:13:45,760
Speaker 1: he was like, Russ, get back to doing what you do. Man.

1551
01:13:45,880 --> 01:13:47,760
Speaker 1: Who knows what's going on in this man's life. He's

1552
01:13:47,800 --> 01:13:50,800
Speaker 1: about an injury, he lost a very close friend he had,

1553
01:13:50,840 --> 01:13:53,880
Speaker 1: He's had a slump, he's played horribly, he's played good.

1554
01:13:53,920 --> 01:13:55,360
Speaker 1: There's a lot of stuff going over Russ, but I

1555
01:13:55,400 --> 01:13:57,479
Speaker 1: think he's moving in the right direction. Just keep that

1556
01:13:57,680 --> 01:13:59,880
Speaker 1: energy up. I have all the faith in the world.

1557
01:14:00,320 --> 01:14:02,679
Speaker 1: Last week was the eight week mark with that finger injury,

1558
01:14:02,880 --> 01:14:05,760
Speaker 1: and that's when we knew Boom who's back. Russell Wilson's back.

1559
01:14:05,840 --> 01:14:07,840
Speaker 1: Number three is back to where we've been seen from him.

1560
01:14:08,080 --> 01:14:09,600
Speaker 1: So I have all the faith in the world that

1561
01:14:09,680 --> 01:14:12,439
Speaker 1: he's gonna take this team to new heights. And I

1562
01:14:12,560 --> 01:14:15,960
Speaker 1: said it earlier to the playoffs, and we're gonna play

1563
01:14:16,000 --> 01:14:18,439
Speaker 1: this all over the pre and postgame show when I'm correct.

1564
01:14:18,640 --> 01:14:20,800
Speaker 1: If I am not correct, our season will be over

1565
01:14:20,960 --> 01:14:22,639
Speaker 1: and you will not hear from me till twenty twenty.
