Second to day three 3 00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:11,559 Speaker 1: wide receivers now in motion as Bumpas left to right, 4 00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:14,600 Speaker 1: Julius Jones, a single setback Matt Pumpecks looking at the 5 00:00:14,680 --> 00:00:17,320 Speaker 1: goal line, he throws it into the end zone. Touchdown, 6 00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:21,560 Speaker 1: Saint Hawks. It's Michael Bumpas with a diving catching the 7 00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:25,880 Speaker 1: end zone. Our ten yard touchdown reception for Bumpus, and 8 00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:28,960 Speaker 1: the kid out of Washington State has found himself a 9 00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:33,200 Speaker 1: place on this team. Powered by Seahawks dot Com. Week 10 00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:35,760 Speaker 1: three is here in his time for a Hawk Talk preview. 11 00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:39,560 Speaker 1: The Seahawks are playing the Minnesota Bikes this week, looking 12 00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:42,479 Speaker 1: to bounce back as usual. It's Michael Bumpas. I'm here 13 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:44,800 Speaker 1: with NASA Toby. NASA is gonna hit us with these 14 00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:47,879 Speaker 1: injury updates. Overall, pretty solid injury update from head coach 15 00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 1: Pete Carroll. Ryan Money was inactive against the Titans last week, 16 00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:54,040 Speaker 1: but it's making progress. His strength is really coming back, 17 00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,800 Speaker 1: and from what I heard today, they tested him for 18 00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 1: the first time in three or four days, and so 19 00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 1: I don't know what that means yet, but his strength 20 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:06,040 Speaker 1: came way back from where it was, so he's feeling 21 00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:07,960 Speaker 1: much better. We can find out if that's enough to 22 00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:10,280 Speaker 1: let him play. I don't know yet. Peker also gave 23 00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:13,760 Speaker 1: an update on Brandon Shell, DK Metcalf and Rashad Penny. First, 24 00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:16,679 Speaker 1: Brandon Shell, he's still a little sore right now. He 25 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 1: won't go to day. We'll see what happens this week. 26 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:23,919 Speaker 1: Go day to day here, Okay, Um, he's he's running 27 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 1: and he's gonna he won't make it this week unless 28 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:30,039 Speaker 1: it's a real surprise at the end of the week 29 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 1: due to the process that he has to make one 30 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 1: ground running and all that. Yeah, yeah, he's going today, 31 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 1: all right, Bump. Like you mentioned, the Seahawks are taken 32 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:45,679 Speaker 1: on the O and two Minnesota Vikings. Who's next, Who's next? 33 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 1: Who's next? The Vikings had a rough start to the season, 34 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 1: starting O and two and two heartbreaking losses in tough fashion. 35 00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:57,280 Speaker 1: They lose twenty seven to twenty four to the Cincinnati 36 00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 1: Bengals and overtime. Also dropped a tough game last week 37 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,880 Speaker 1: thirty four to thirty three to the Arizona Cardinals. Now 38 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 1: week one, I mentioned they lost in a heartbreaker to 39 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 1: the Bengals. They were down fourteen in the second half. 40 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:12,639 Speaker 1: Scratch Claude fought their way back, needed a fifty three 41 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:14,919 Speaker 1: yard field goal to send the game into overtime. They 42 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 1: got it in overtime. Dalvin Cook had a critical fumble 43 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:20,919 Speaker 1: that led to the excuse me led to the Bengals 44 00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:23,800 Speaker 1: game winning field goal and overtime. Vikings had to overcome 45 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 1: lots of mistakes. They're penaltized twelve times for one hundred 46 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:30,959 Speaker 1: and sixteen yards, four penalties Bump in the first eight plays, 47 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,959 Speaker 1: so couldn't have started any worse. Last week, Week two, 48 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 1: the pain continued for those Vikings. They took on a 49 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 1: tough Cardinals team coming off a big win over the Titans. 50 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:44,360 Speaker 1: But Bump, let me tell you something, man, how this 51 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:49,120 Speaker 1: game ended painful? So the Vikings are lining up for 52 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:51,960 Speaker 1: a thirty seven yard field goal with the game on 53 00:02:52,000 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 1: the line put down, Joseph, Are you kidding me, mister Wright? 54 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 1: He mister right, Paul, Oh my, just mister Wright. Watch 55 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 1: a gut punch to a team fall that play after 56 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 1: play toward the yet fought its way out. All right, 57 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 1: that's a courtesy of the Vikings radio network. Man Bump, 58 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:27,639 Speaker 1: real quick before you get into this. I have to. 59 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:30,639 Speaker 1: I feel for the guy. Paul Allen, who's a play 60 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 1: by play voice for the Minnesota Vikings, is a great 61 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 1: job along with Peter burs It's the color man. It's 62 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: tough man. Especially in Arizona. The broadcast angle where those 63 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 1: booths are is not in a good location. It's in 64 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 1: the top corner. From that vantage point, it's hard to 65 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 1: different differentiate if it's good or not. That's why a 66 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 1: lot of situations like that, play by play guys usually 67 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 1: wakes even though it's painful and everyone's like, why are 68 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 1: they giving us a call? They wait to see that 69 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 1: official signal. Unfortunately, he jumped the gun and you could 70 00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 1: just feel the pain in his voice. Oh man, he 71 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 1: went from the most excited dude in the stadium to 72 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 1: the most disappointed ad. That was a tough way to lose, 73 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 1: the Vikings man. Two weeks in a row, heartbreak losses. 74 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 1: But they've been in the game. That's why I look 75 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 1: at this team and I'm like, this isn't a bad 76 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,159 Speaker 1: football team. They got some guys. Now they played against 77 00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray. Kyler Murray doesn't get the love he deserves 78 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 1: so far this year, okay, he was twenty nine to 79 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 1: thirty six, four hundred yards, three touchdowns, did have two interceptions, 80 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 1: but he ran for thirty one yards and another touchdown. 81 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,359 Speaker 1: Everybody was touching a ball. It fell like he spread 82 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 1: the wealth around to six different receivers who had three 83 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:36,600 Speaker 1: receptions each. Kyler Murray needs some more love, He needs 84 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:38,920 Speaker 1: some more respect. Kylin Murray is scary good right now. 85 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: And he's in year three and he's slowly figuring out 86 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:43,720 Speaker 1: that offense. It feels like the game is slowing down, 87 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 1: and he just has those dynamic plays. I hate to 88 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 1: compare him to Russell Wilson, but Russell Wilson opened up 89 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:52,279 Speaker 1: the door for quarterbacks like Kyler Murray, and you just 90 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 1: see those plays. Like in Tennessee. They couldn't get him down, 91 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 1: flicking the wrist downfield, you can't keep him in the pocket, 92 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,599 Speaker 1: rolling out to his right, left doesn't matter. Ala Murray 93 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 1: is absolutely electric. Dalvin Cook another good running back, rush 94 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,720 Speaker 1: for over fourteen hundred yards last year, had twenty two 95 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 1: carries one hundred and thirty one yards. Now, I just 96 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 1: did a film session. You guys check that out. It 97 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 1: should be on the Seahawks YouTube this week and Dalvin 98 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:17,160 Speaker 1: Cook in the run scheme for the Minnesota is impressive. 99 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:19,160 Speaker 1: They like that gap, they like to pull guards, they 100 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,280 Speaker 1: like to down block, they like to lead with the 101 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:24,279 Speaker 1: full back. It's gonna be another tough week when it 102 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:26,919 Speaker 1: comes to stopping the running backs. Dalvin Cook is a 103 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:29,599 Speaker 1: downhill runner, but he does have some wiggle, has some 104 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,599 Speaker 1: breakaway speed as well. Yeah. Man, it's after a tough week. 105 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:34,120 Speaker 1: We're getting this a little bit later. After a tough 106 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,599 Speaker 1: week stopping Derrick Henry last week. For the Seahawks defense, 107 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:38,719 Speaker 1: they're gonna have their work cut out for him. Dalvin 108 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 1: Cook is a very talented back, and Mike Zimmer in 109 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:43,839 Speaker 1: the Vikings scheme and system that is similar in the 110 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 1: sense of what you've seen for Pete Carroll over the years. 111 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 1: They're gonna run the football. They're good at running football. 112 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:49,599 Speaker 1: They want to play good defense, so it'll be a 113 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:52,000 Speaker 1: good matchup Bear kirk Cousins. He turned out a pretty 114 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 1: soliday two hundred and forty four yards with three touchdowns. 115 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,280 Speaker 1: As we mentioned earlier, the team's kind of traded vehicles 116 00:05:57,279 --> 00:05:59,039 Speaker 1: in the fourth. It was low key a really good 117 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:02,360 Speaker 1: football game. Cardinals and the Vikings. Matt Prador hits. The 118 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 1: twenty seven yard field goal given Arizona the thirty four 119 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:07,279 Speaker 1: to thirty three lead with four twenty five left. The 120 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 1: Vikings drove all the way down the field and as 121 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 1: you heard earlier, Joe system is that thirty seven yard 122 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 1: field goal. So it was a heartbreaker for the Vikings. 123 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,480 Speaker 1: But that being said, they're gonna be jacked up, fired up, 124 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:19,280 Speaker 1: Brady to go because no one wants to start the 125 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 1: season owing three. Despite a seventeen game season heart break, 126 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 1: hotel two weeks in a row for the Minnesota Vikings. 127 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 1: I also want to point out Kirk Cousins has not 128 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:30,720 Speaker 1: thrown an interception this year. NaSTA Choo and the Hawks 129 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:34,159 Speaker 1: have not recorded an interception on defense this year. Let's 130 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 1: switch it up, all right, man, Let's look at this 131 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 1: head to head comparison. Head to head, man, the Seahawks 132 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 1: one and one, Vikings zone and two. And if you 133 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 1: look at this, bumba, I'm gonna start on defense. It 134 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 1: took a hit last week. Yeah. Again, it's hard to 135 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:50,360 Speaker 1: look they head to head in depth because we're only 136 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:52,280 Speaker 1: two weeks in the season, but the Seahawks fell to 137 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:55,040 Speaker 1: thirtieth in total defense, given up four hundred thirty four 138 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:56,640 Speaker 1: yards a game. A lot of that was because of 139 00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:59,479 Speaker 1: what happened last weekend Rust defense fell the thirty first, 140 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:01,239 Speaker 1: given up one hundred and sixty two on the ground, 141 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 1: and pass defense fell the twenty second with two hundred 142 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:06,720 Speaker 1: and seventy one yards given up per game. Again, if 143 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 1: you give up five hundred plus yards to a team, 144 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:10,520 Speaker 1: your numbers are gonna take a hit, especially with a 145 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 1: small sample size. The other side of the ball, the 146 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 1: Vikings also haven't played that great defensively in terms of stats. 147 00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 1: They're giving up four hundred and twenty yards of total 148 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:22,000 Speaker 1: offense that's twenty eighth in the league. Rush defense are 149 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 1: given up one hundred and twenty six yards on the ground, 150 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 1: tied for twenty first, and past defense are given up 151 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 1: two hundred and ninety four yards a game, tied for 152 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:31,880 Speaker 1: excuse me, twenty sixth in the league. So last week 153 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 1: did not help their stat book as well, so it'll 154 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 1: be interesting to see how these defenses bounced back two 155 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 1: weeks in. Both of these defenses are in the bottom 156 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 1: third of the league when it comes to these stats. 157 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 1: Now where they excel a bit is on the offensive side. 158 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 1: Total offense ranked four the Seahawks, they're eleventh. Now I 159 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 1: think they're better than eleventh, is just you know, things happen, 160 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 1: and the Vikings are six. When it comes to rush offense, 161 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 1: the Seahawks are nineteen, the Vikings are eleven. Pass offense, 162 00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 1: the Seahawks are tenth and the Vikings are eight. Pretty even. 163 00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 1: It looks like these teams are evenly matched. Right. They're 164 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 1: both tours about them on defense, both around the middle 165 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 1: to the top of the pact. On offense, another thing 166 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 1: they have in common penalty woes. Okay, you have to 167 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 1: get rid of these penalties. Last week, the Seahawks had 168 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 1: ten penalties for one hundred yards. For the season, they 169 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 1: have seventeen penalties four hundred and fifty three. Right behind them, 170 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: the Vikings have fifteen penalties for one hundred and thirty two. 171 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 1: So both coaches are going into this week and they're saying, 172 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 1: let's clean this stuff up. Yeah. I mean, that's one 173 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 1: thing that you talk to any coach, especially Pete Carroll. 174 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 1: You cannot be penalized. He spoke of that at length 175 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 1: this week and after the game, that we just can't 176 00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 1: do that. Especially those are penalties a lot of which 177 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 1: happen that can be avoided, you know, lay hits on 178 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:42,320 Speaker 1: the quarterback, the taunting one. We've talked about that we're 179 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 1: not gonna get it at. That's off the table. There's 180 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 1: other penalties that can easily be stopped. I think both 181 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 1: coaches feel the same way, and that has to get 182 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 1: cleaned up as we go into this week. All right, 183 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:55,120 Speaker 1: let's look into the history. Know your history, no your history? 184 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 1: All right? The Seahawks lead the all time series twelve 185 00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 1: to five, or the Minnesota Vikings and the last meeting, 186 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 1: bump Man, this wasn't This was a crazy game at 187 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 1: Loomanfield last year. Unfortunately there's no fans there to experience 188 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 1: this crazy comfort behind victory. Last season, the Seahawks beat 189 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:13,760 Speaker 1: the Vikings twenty seven to twenty six. The Seahawks have 190 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:17,120 Speaker 1: won the last six matchups against the Vikings. It feels 191 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 1: like we play them every year. We play them the 192 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:22,080 Speaker 1: last three. But in that last meeting, the Seahawks couldn't 193 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,440 Speaker 1: get much going in the first half, trailing thirteen to nothing. 194 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 1: The Vikings stormed back, scoring three straight touchdowns to take 195 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:31,240 Speaker 1: a twenty one thirteen lead, or the Seahawks did. Then 196 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:33,440 Speaker 1: the Vikings answer were two more scores of their own, 197 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 1: but got stopped on a big two point conversion attempt 198 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 1: and then bump. If you remember this last final drive, 199 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:42,040 Speaker 1: you know I'll remember bro the Vikings kickoff to the Seahawks. 200 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,679 Speaker 1: Seahawks were trailing twenty six to twenty one with one 201 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,439 Speaker 1: fifty seven on the clock, with the ball on their 202 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:51,920 Speaker 1: own six yard line. Somehow Russell Wilson, DK Tyler they 203 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:54,840 Speaker 1: get things going. The Seahawks were up against a fourth 204 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 1: in ten Russell throws up a prayer DK Metcalf on 205 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 1: the sideline for thirty nine yards. Seahawks continue to drive 206 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:03,559 Speaker 1: to have all the way down to the Viking six 207 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 1: yard line, went three straight incompletions, but faced this fourth 208 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:11,880 Speaker 1: and goal with fifteen seconds remaining. Russell lookout, He's gonna 209 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:14,679 Speaker 1: fire inside, preaching up, make you a catch? Does he 210 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:20,679 Speaker 1: hang on? He does? Kids a touchdown. It's a touchdown Seahawks. 211 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:23,880 Speaker 1: And it's Metcalf who reaches up and makes the catch, 212 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,720 Speaker 1: crossing the field, making the catch in the middle of 213 00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:29,680 Speaker 1: the Enzo and Russell finds him and throws the dark 214 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 1: and we all waited to see who it was. David 215 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 1: and made the catch because it could have been anybody. 216 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:39,360 Speaker 1: But it was Medcalf going to the ground, perfect passed 217 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:44,360 Speaker 1: by Russ and absolutely no doubt about it. Russell Wilson 218 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:48,719 Speaker 1: comes back for his thirty fourth career fourth quarter or 219 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:53,520 Speaker 1: overtime comeback and Seattle now Leeds twenty seven, twenty six. 220 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,560 Speaker 1: That game was unreal. Bump. What do you remember about that? Man? 221 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:58,960 Speaker 1: I remember one. We were some of the lucky few 222 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 1: who were in the stadium in the suite. We had 223 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 1: a perfect view of that last drive. They were going 224 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 1: towards the north end zone. We were in the south 225 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 1: end zone. We saw it all go down. Yeah, DK 226 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:09,720 Speaker 1: macal come up with two crucial plays on fourth down, 227 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:13,120 Speaker 1: and I remember thinking DK's here. Now he has a ride. 228 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,560 Speaker 1: It's raining, it's wet out there. He's still making these 229 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 1: tough passes and you know, getting to those four downs 230 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 1: with stressful. But Russell did what Russell usually does, leads 231 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 1: him down the field for a game with a touchdown. 232 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:25,760 Speaker 1: Like Steve Rabel said, that was his thirty fourth time 233 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:29,120 Speaker 1: doing it. I hope it doesn't come to that this week. Nope. 234 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:31,240 Speaker 1: I would like to play how the Seahawks playing in 235 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 1: Week one. Comfortable, not getting your heart rate up, not pacing, 236 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 1: not back and forth. Stay out big, keep winning big. 237 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:38,880 Speaker 1: But the Seahawks will play the Vikings a ton last 238 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 1: couple of years will help the trend continues the Seahawks 239 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 1: way as it's going. But man, the NFC West, boy, 240 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 1: that's a bad division. What's the word? And the Seahawks 241 00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:55,840 Speaker 1: where the NFC West champs? Again? What's the word? In 242 00:11:55,880 --> 00:12:01,520 Speaker 1: the West? On Hawk talk? What's the word? Seattle's one 243 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:03,600 Speaker 1: and one and they are last in the division right now, 244 00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 1: that's how good this division is. The Rams of two 245 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,760 Speaker 1: and no, Cardinals two and no. Nine Ers are two 246 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:11,040 Speaker 1: and oh. We've set this a million times in NFCY 247 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:13,559 Speaker 1: West is the best division in football. If the Hawks 248 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 1: were able to beat the Tennessee Titans, say, the whole 249 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:19,080 Speaker 1: division as a whole would have been eight in oh. 250 00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 1: Let's focus on some of these teams. Now, the Rams 251 00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 1: beat the Colts in a close twenty seven to twenty 252 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 1: four matchup. Now, Carson Wentz went out late in the game. 253 00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 1: We got to see a local kid, Lake Stephens stand out, 254 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:32,600 Speaker 1: U dub stand out. Jacob Eaton had a chance off 255 00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:34,840 Speaker 1: the bench to be the hero, but he threw an interception. 256 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 1: I saw that interception. It was such a rookie throw. 257 00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:39,680 Speaker 1: He tried to throw a corner into a deep cover's look. 258 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 1: That corner dropped right into the zone. Picked it off. 259 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 1: It was easy pick as I believe that was. I 260 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 1: don't know who the corner was. I just know there 261 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 1: was a battery. He looked like a rookie right there. Now. 262 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,840 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford turned in an okay performance nineteen to thirty 263 00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:56,520 Speaker 1: twenty seventy eight yards and two touchdowns, one interception. But 264 00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 1: my guy Cooper Cup, oh man, Yeah, he's one of 265 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 1: my favorite receivers. Every chance it gets to talk about him, 266 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do it. Nine receptions, one hundred and sixty 267 00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 1: three yards, two touchdowns. He's getting better. Cooper Cup is 268 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 1: getting he looks faster. I'm like, where did this speed 269 00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:13,400 Speaker 1: come from? What's your offseason workout? Look like? Cooper Cup 270 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:16,040 Speaker 1: and those Rams are looking good right now? Yeah, Cooper 271 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:18,840 Speaker 1: is scary man. They still got those weapons over there now. 272 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:21,560 Speaker 1: It was the Rams obviously win the game. They have 273 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 1: a big stop late. They didn't look as explosive outside 274 00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 1: of Cooper Cup as they had done in previous weeks. 275 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 1: I believe Henderson only rushed for like sixty yards Stafford 276 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 1: was you know, I mean it wasn't by no means 277 00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:35,840 Speaker 1: was a bad game at all. Two hundred and sevent 278 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:39,520 Speaker 1: eight yards, two touchdowns, win, interception. But there's some chinks 279 00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:41,840 Speaker 1: in the armor many they looked. I wouldn't I don't 280 00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 1: want to say vulnerable, but it wasn't as good as 281 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:46,000 Speaker 1: they looked in Week one. However, it wins a win. 282 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,560 Speaker 1: That's all it counts in the record. Call him. So 283 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 1: the Rams out to a good start now. Also in 284 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,439 Speaker 1: the division, the forty nine ers, so they kind of 285 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:55,959 Speaker 1: want an ugly game. But I'm not gonna lie to 286 00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:59,200 Speaker 1: seventeen to eleven over the Eagles last Sunday. When you 287 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:01,520 Speaker 1: look at the box score, you can kind of condemned replay. 288 00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:05,200 Speaker 1: Nothing really jumps out. Jimmy g twenty two for thirty 289 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:08,559 Speaker 1: one hundred and eighty nine yards, one touchdown, also ran 290 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:11,199 Speaker 1: for touchdown. He's a mobile quarterback. He's running for touchdown. Hey, 291 00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:13,559 Speaker 1: he ran for like five first downs, bro, so he 292 00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 1: was doing something right. But the main thing to me, 293 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 1: Bump was Trey Lance watched every snap from the sidelines, 294 00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 1: So he's surprised by that. I'm not surprised if you're winning, 295 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:24,400 Speaker 1: and Jimmy G's like, look, you got Trey Lance. I'm 296 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 1: forget me. I'm mobile, Okay, I can pick up first 297 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 1: downs too. They're gonna bring on Trey Land slowly now 298 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 1: at this point. Honestly, I thought that we would be 299 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 1: seeing a little bit more Trey Lance. We've seen him 300 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 1: a little bit the first the first week. But if 301 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 1: it ain't broke, don't fix it. Even if it's ugly. 302 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:39,800 Speaker 1: A win is a win. These Niners are two and 303 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 1: oh and Jimmy G's having an okay season, so I 304 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 1: don't I'm not surprised. Yeah, there's no reason to rush 305 00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:47,239 Speaker 1: a rookie along in a second week if you're winning ballgames. 306 00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 1: And you know, Jimmy G gets a lot of flak. 307 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 1: I know there's a lot of questions about whether or 308 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:54,080 Speaker 1: not he was gonna be replaced even by week three, 309 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:57,280 Speaker 1: or if he was gonna start the year. He's calm, cool, collected. 310 00:14:57,320 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 1: You know, he's a good looking dude. He's out there, 311 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:01,280 Speaker 1: like I'm confident the starter. Things are going well for them. 312 00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:03,360 Speaker 1: They didn't run the ball particularly well. I know George 313 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:05,320 Speaker 1: Kittle talked about last week that they're the best running 314 00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:07,520 Speaker 1: team in the National Football League or at least in 315 00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 1: the NFC West, So it'll be interesting to see how 316 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:11,680 Speaker 1: they go. But they're really banged up at running back. 317 00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 1: They lost a ton of players. It seems like any 318 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 1: running back they plug in there's pretty good and it's 319 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 1: okay anyway, So it'll be interesting to see. We'll get 320 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:20,720 Speaker 1: a chance to catch up with those boys in San 321 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 1: Francisco here pretty soon, Yes we will. We already talked 322 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 1: about the Cardinals. Man, those news look explosive. AJ Green 323 00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 1: is great in the red zone. Hoskins is doing this thing. 324 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:31,720 Speaker 1: He Edmunds looks good. Man. Yeah, and they got another guy, 325 00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 1: Rondale I believe his name is Rondale Moore. They look good. 326 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 1: I look at his office and I'm like, Arizona ain't 327 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:40,320 Speaker 1: get enough pub man, you gotta be careful. But we're 328 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:43,440 Speaker 1: not talking about Arizona. We're talking about the Vikings. Let's 329 00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:50,440 Speaker 1: look at some of these matchups. Man up this man 330 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:56,480 Speaker 1: up on Hawk Talk. As we do every week, we 331 00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 1: look at the key matchup the Seahawks will be facing 332 00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:01,360 Speaker 1: this Sunday, and you can't look any farther than the 333 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 1: quarterback for the Minnesota Vikings, Kirk Cousins Man and his 334 00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:07,400 Speaker 1: career bump. He's just been a lightning rod for criticism 335 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:09,960 Speaker 1: since he's entered the league and became a starter. You know, 336 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:12,160 Speaker 1: he's typically done well in the regular season, but has 337 00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:14,320 Speaker 1: a stigma for not doing well in the big game. 338 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 1: You know, I feel like he's kind of changed that 339 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:19,160 Speaker 1: narrative twenty nineteen with a wild card win in the 340 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 1: playoffs over the New Orleans Saints. They didn't make the 341 00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 1: playoffs last year. But bump, here's the staff that I 342 00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:26,120 Speaker 1: don't want to throw to you. Man, this is crazy. 343 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 1: The longest streak of consecutive games within ninety plus passer 344 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 1: rating in NFL history. Okay, this is I'm gonna name 345 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 1: read off a couple of names. Number one Peyton Manning. 346 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:40,120 Speaker 1: He had twenty three of those games from twenty twelve 347 00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:43,880 Speaker 1: two thirteen. That's very expected. Everyone knows that number three 348 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 1: is Peyton Manning at fifteen to two thousand and four, 349 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 1: and tied for number three Steve Young at fifteen in 350 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 1: nineteen ninety four, nineteen ninty five. But you know who's 351 00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:54,800 Speaker 1: number two in that list? Who's that Kirk Cousins. From 352 00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:58,280 Speaker 1: last year to right now, he has had sixteen straight 353 00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 1: games within ninety plus aascerating So say what you want. 354 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 1: He might not be splashy some other guys. People got 355 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:07,760 Speaker 1: angry when he got paid all that guaranteed money. But 356 00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:10,520 Speaker 1: the guy's playing pretty good football. I don't know worse 357 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:12,440 Speaker 1: to say about it. I mean, he's a good football player. 358 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:14,640 Speaker 1: You know what I can say? You like that? Don't 359 00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:18,439 Speaker 1: you like that? Kirk Cousins, man, he is like public 360 00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:20,720 Speaker 1: Enemy number one. Him and Jimmy, I feel like no 361 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 1: one wants to believe in him, but they just win 362 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:24,680 Speaker 1: ball games. And now you're telling me stats where he's 363 00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:27,080 Speaker 1: mentioned with Steve Young and all these other guys. That 364 00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:29,600 Speaker 1: is crazy. But you and I have been around long 365 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:31,239 Speaker 1: enough to know that Kurt is going to keep them 366 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:32,840 Speaker 1: in the game. He might not win the game, but 367 00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:35,160 Speaker 1: he will keep them in the game. And these receivers 368 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:37,840 Speaker 1: are looking good right now. Jefferson looks good, theling looks good. 369 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:40,199 Speaker 1: You got Osborne who's hit the scene. Now you got 370 00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 1: a running back. He's surrounded by some talent. So it 371 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:47,639 Speaker 1: surprises me, but it doesn't surprise me about mister kirk Cousins. 372 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 1: All right, another matchup Dalvin Kugg versus the Seahawks front seven. 373 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:54,119 Speaker 1: We know what this guy can do. In twenty twenty one, 374 00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:55,840 Speaker 1: he has forty two carries from one hundred and ninety 375 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:58,800 Speaker 1: two yards and one touchdown. Last week was his bounce 376 00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:01,240 Speaker 1: back game, twenty two carries, one hundred and thirty one yards. 377 00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 1: I just like this running scheme the Big Ray was here. 378 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:05,120 Speaker 1: I mean, he would have a lot of great things 379 00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:07,520 Speaker 1: to say about it. They play power football. They're gonna 380 00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:09,840 Speaker 1: pull guards, they're gonna lead with fullbacks, They're gonna get 381 00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:13,160 Speaker 1: bodies on bodies. So Dalvin Cook can open this thing 382 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:16,359 Speaker 1: up and do his thing. It's gonna take a community, 383 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:18,680 Speaker 1: just like it did last week. If you can, if 384 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:20,520 Speaker 1: you can hone in on what the Hawks did that 385 00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:23,879 Speaker 1: first half and bring this to this Vikings game, they 386 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:25,960 Speaker 1: should be okay. But if they don't rally to the football, 387 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:28,080 Speaker 1: and if they don't tackle, if they do not read 388 00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:30,359 Speaker 1: their keys, it could be a long day. And the 389 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:32,960 Speaker 1: thing about that bumps that stuff happens so quick. You 390 00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 1: can play a great half of football, like we saw 391 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:36,800 Speaker 1: the Seahawks play in the front seven against the run 392 00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:40,040 Speaker 1: against the Titans. But one little breakdown here, one little 393 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,240 Speaker 1: breakdown here, Now they get confidence now they start doing 394 00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:44,200 Speaker 1: stuff here, here's re screwed up. We're gonna come back 395 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:45,680 Speaker 1: with this. We'renna hit you with the counter. We're gonna 396 00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:47,880 Speaker 1: hit you with this. So they need to stay disciplined. 397 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:49,879 Speaker 1: And it was talked about a lot, you know, between 398 00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:52,560 Speaker 1: whether it's Pete, Where's Bobby Wagner, whether there's Jamal Adams 399 00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:54,920 Speaker 1: when they spoke after the game. It's about gap integrity. 400 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:57,160 Speaker 1: If your job is a B gap or the A gap, 401 00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,240 Speaker 1: you need to have that gap. If your job on 402 00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 1: the play is force or secondary force, you have to 403 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:04,080 Speaker 1: do that. I mean, and that's how things break down 404 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:07,280 Speaker 1: because it's team defensing. We have basic good running back 405 00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:10,000 Speaker 1: like Dalvin Cook. If ten guys do their job but 406 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:12,159 Speaker 1: one doesn't, that's when you get in trouble. So the 407 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:14,479 Speaker 1: Seahawks have a lot to work on because it's going 408 00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:16,399 Speaker 1: to be a tough opponent. We know they can do 409 00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 1: it though. That's a that's a great thing. Bobby Wagner 410 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 1: is your leader on defense. From all Adams Squandrey digs, 411 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:23,639 Speaker 1: there's guys that can get that done. So I'm excited 412 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:25,720 Speaker 1: to see what this matchup books like against Dalvin Cook. 413 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:28,399 Speaker 1: All Right, next matchup, We're gonna go DJ Read and 414 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:33,640 Speaker 1: Trey Flowers versus Justin Jefferson, Adam Theeland and kJ Osborn. 415 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 1: Now theeling Justin Jefferson is rubbing off on Theeeling. I 416 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 1: know Theeland is the guy who's been there for a while, 417 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 1: But I saw a Theling score a touchdown and do 418 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:45,360 Speaker 1: the dance. Though, hey, Jefferson does. He's got his chain out. 419 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:47,800 Speaker 1: They I guarantee you they believe in hype each other 420 00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:49,240 Speaker 1: up like we are one of the best duels in 421 00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:51,119 Speaker 1: the league. And I am mad Adam for thinking that. 422 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:53,760 Speaker 1: All right, Justin Jefferson had a huge rookie campaign with 423 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 1: fourteen hundred yards and seven touchdowns eighty eight receptions. So 424 00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:59,880 Speaker 1: far this year he has eleven receptions for one hundred 425 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,439 Speaker 1: six yards and one touchdown. Feeling is doing his thing. 426 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:05,480 Speaker 1: He is so good in the red zone. Man, he 427 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:07,639 Speaker 1: goes and gets that football. He works the back of 428 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:10,040 Speaker 1: the end zone. This year he has fifteen receptions one 429 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 1: hundred and thirty one yards three touchdowns. But kJ Osborne, 430 00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:17,119 Speaker 1: the second year player, has emerged in twenty twenty one. 431 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 1: He leads the Vikings in receiving with twelve receptions one 432 00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:23,280 Speaker 1: hundred seventy six yards one big sixty four yard touchdown 433 00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 1: last week. Now he had to make the play, but 434 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:28,359 Speaker 1: that was just a bust on the defense. That corner 435 00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:30,760 Speaker 1: thought he had safety help over the top. It looked 436 00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:33,360 Speaker 1: like a Cover two look. Safety was not over the top. 437 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:36,920 Speaker 1: He stayed in the scene against Justin Jefferson. But Osborne 438 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:38,720 Speaker 1: did a good job of getting outside of that corner, 439 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:41,320 Speaker 1: getting down the sideline and catching the easy football, good 440 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:45,200 Speaker 1: pass from Kirk Cousins. Yeah, these guys, I mean the 441 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:47,479 Speaker 1: Seahawks are gonna start getting into some of these spans 442 00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 1: where they just have good receiver combo after good receiver combo. 443 00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:52,600 Speaker 1: He had a tough one last week. With Julio Jones 444 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:54,000 Speaker 1: and A. J. Brown. We know what they can do. 445 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:57,320 Speaker 1: This trio is something special. Justin Jefferson is gonna be 446 00:20:57,400 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 1: here to stay for a long time. He's eventually gonna 447 00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:02,359 Speaker 1: be any all Pro type player. So DJ Read and 448 00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 1: Trey Flowers, you know, in evaluating them and how they've played, 449 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:08,280 Speaker 1: they've played solid. I mean they haven't. They haven't done 450 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:10,440 Speaker 1: much to value, but they made some plays. They broke 451 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:12,440 Speaker 1: out some plays in the end zone. The one glaring 452 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:14,359 Speaker 1: thing that came out of last week is when Flowers 453 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:16,680 Speaker 1: got beat on that fit fifty one yard go ball. 454 00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:19,480 Speaker 1: And the thing about Flowers, he's always in position. He's 455 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 1: just got to make the play that that's the difference. 456 00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:24,640 Speaker 1: And it's gonna be a tough, tough matchup this week. 457 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:26,600 Speaker 1: But I got faith in those guys. It's just about 458 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:28,920 Speaker 1: making the plays when they're there to be made. They'll 459 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 1: need some help underneath and underneath coverage, because sometimes when 460 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 1: you see a ball get completed on a corner, doesn't 461 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:36,800 Speaker 1: mean it was his fault. It might be that they're 462 00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:39,200 Speaker 1: playing cover three and they are giving that up. That's 463 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:40,840 Speaker 1: just the scheme of the defense I was called in 464 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 1: that play. Sometimes we're playing a little bit more aggressive 465 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:45,400 Speaker 1: bump and runs, so it's hard to differentiate every play 466 00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:47,680 Speaker 1: if it was so and so's fault. But they're playing 467 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:49,480 Speaker 1: okay football. I just want to see them take the 468 00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:51,760 Speaker 1: next step this weekend and take the football away. I 469 00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:53,440 Speaker 1: want I want you guys to look at now that 470 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:56,359 Speaker 1: the vikings are gonna do some motion before the snap. 471 00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:59,239 Speaker 1: They're gonna move the tightening have some unbalanced look. If 472 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:01,480 Speaker 1: you don't see anybody running with that tight end, that 473 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,080 Speaker 1: means it is a zone. So in zone, your job 474 00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:06,000 Speaker 1: is to keep everything in front of you. So if 475 00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:08,119 Speaker 1: you see a zone look and footballs are caught in 476 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:10,119 Speaker 1: front of these guys, that's a plus. You want to 477 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:12,680 Speaker 1: keep things in front of you. Absolutely, let's get in 478 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:16,359 Speaker 1: the next matchup Chris Carsonding, it's this Vikings front seven Carson. 479 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:18,399 Speaker 1: He did have two touchdowns last week, but only had 480 00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 1: thirty one yards on thirteen carries. This is huge for me. 481 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 1: I think this is gonna be one of the biggest 482 00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:24,720 Speaker 1: keys of the game. They need to get this guy 483 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:27,840 Speaker 1: going early. Thirteen carries is not enough in my opinion. 484 00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:31,359 Speaker 1: And it's about establishing the run early. And when you 485 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:33,520 Speaker 1: here established a run, that doesn't mean given the ball 486 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:36,120 Speaker 1: thirty seven times and run down first and second down 487 00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:39,320 Speaker 1: every time. It's getting into a flow and going into 488 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:43,960 Speaker 1: it and starting early. Because what happens when you go 489 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,120 Speaker 1: to it early you start to wearing these guys down, 490 00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:48,160 Speaker 1: You start to set stuff up. You're like, hey, we've 491 00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:51,080 Speaker 1: been showing this look all time. Let's do a design cutback, 492 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:53,280 Speaker 1: let's get into this, let's toss, let's do this action. 493 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:56,239 Speaker 1: So if you don't establish a run, when you need 494 00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:58,879 Speaker 1: to sustain a drive, in the fourth quarter. Maybe it's 495 00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:00,879 Speaker 1: a four minute drill and you haven't been able to 496 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,560 Speaker 1: run the football. It's really hard to sustain drives because 497 00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:05,720 Speaker 1: the defense is gonna make you one dimensional. So it's 498 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:08,120 Speaker 1: really important this week to get Chris Carson going bum 499 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 1: You said something important, wear them down, and you got 500 00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:13,240 Speaker 1: to have a certain back to wear. Defense is down, 501 00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 1: a back that's gonna fall forward, that's gonna meet force 502 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:19,160 Speaker 1: food force. Guess what thirty two does that He will 503 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:21,560 Speaker 1: wear you down. He will lower that shoulder. Patty's also 504 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:23,439 Speaker 1: good out the backfield. I think this week the focus 505 00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 1: has to be, Okay, we gotta get Chris Carson the ball. 506 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:28,119 Speaker 1: He needs to touch it at least twenty times in 507 00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:30,680 Speaker 1: the run game. Another five or six would dump offs 508 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:33,440 Speaker 1: and check downs. Gotta get this man. Be football. The 509 00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:35,880 Speaker 1: Vikings defense is twenty first in the league against the run. 510 00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 1: All right, two games are allowing one hundred twenty six 511 00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 1: yards per game. That is encouraging Chris Carson. Let's get 512 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:45,120 Speaker 1: him going, all right. Another matchup Seahawks offense as a whole, 513 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:47,480 Speaker 1: they need to be more consistent, all right. They came 514 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 1: out hot, sputtered in the second half, only had one 515 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:52,120 Speaker 1: touchdown in the second half. They have to be able 516 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 1: to sustain drives when the game this on the line. 517 00:23:55,400 --> 00:24:00,440 Speaker 1: Every scoring drive was a long play sixty something yard touchdown, 518 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:02,800 Speaker 1: three play drive, four play drive. Let's put together some 519 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:05,200 Speaker 1: ten play drives. Absolutely. That's the other thing too, Like 520 00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:08,160 Speaker 1: even Alton Robinson caused a fumble and Chris Carson punched 521 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:11,160 Speaker 1: it in the big explosive plays. Don't get me wrong. 522 00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:13,159 Speaker 1: Don't hear us say that and be like, oh, you 523 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:15,200 Speaker 1: guys didn't want them to score sixty eight your touchdowns, 524 00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:18,879 Speaker 1: but we also want to see drives to replace some 525 00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:21,200 Speaker 1: of those three and outs. Even if you don't score, 526 00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:24,359 Speaker 1: go forty or fifty yards, flip the field position, give 527 00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:26,600 Speaker 1: your defense a break, and just sustain drives like we 528 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:28,640 Speaker 1: know they're capable of. They do so much good motion 529 00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 1: stuff that we've seen from them. We saw in week one, 530 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 1: So you just need to dictate to those that vikings 531 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:36,119 Speaker 1: defense and the other thing, man, they just have to 532 00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:38,359 Speaker 1: be better on third down. Four of twelve is not 533 00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 1: really what we want to see. So I'm looking forward 534 00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:45,080 Speaker 1: to that. Better on third down. Sustain These drives wear 535 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 1: these dudes out all right, and they're not bad on offense. Right, 536 00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:51,320 Speaker 1: they're Tier eight scoring twenty nine points per game, but 537 00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:53,920 Speaker 1: they got to be where Daniel Hunter last week excuse me, 538 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 1: Daniel Hunter. Yeah, last week had against Arizona, had seven pressures, 539 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:02,120 Speaker 1: four hurries, three sacks, and seven even tackles. Now, guys 540 00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:04,880 Speaker 1: are going to make plays. Of course, this is the NFL. 541 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:07,120 Speaker 1: But you can't have a guy to dominate a ball game. 542 00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 1: That's what you don't want to have. So see offense, 543 00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:12,480 Speaker 1: Let's get back to doing what you did first week. 544 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:15,040 Speaker 1: In the first half a week two, what's the path 545 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:19,639 Speaker 1: to victory? At the forty five waits for the snaff, 546 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,760 Speaker 1: Michael Vickton puts it down. That kick is away, and 547 00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 1: that kick is gone. It's gone. It's a path to victory. 548 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 1: On Hawk Talk half the victory, How will these Seahawks 549 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:34,399 Speaker 1: get back in the wind column? I'll tell you exactly 550 00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:36,440 Speaker 1: how they're gonna get back in the wind column. Stop 551 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:40,200 Speaker 1: the run and play discipline. Pete Carroll. Defenses are always 552 00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:42,679 Speaker 1: good at stopping the run. That's what they do. They 553 00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:45,040 Speaker 1: need to flesh the second half from last week, get 554 00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:47,880 Speaker 1: back after during practice this week and stop a talented 555 00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 1: back like Dalvin Cook. Bump you alluded to all the 556 00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:52,280 Speaker 1: things that they want to do, pulling guards, leading with 557 00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:55,280 Speaker 1: full backs, gaps, all that stuff. The Seahawks, they know 558 00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:57,399 Speaker 1: what they need to do. They got some dogs in there. Okay, 559 00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:01,080 Speaker 1: whether it's you got Bobby Wagner, obviously you got Jordan 560 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:04,280 Speaker 1: Brooks in upfront, Al Woods, poona Ford. The guys that 561 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:06,560 Speaker 1: are making plays, they just need to be consistent, stay 562 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 1: disciplined in their gap, their run fits. And that includes 563 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:11,879 Speaker 1: when Jamal Adams comes down, when we're a nickel, all 564 00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 1: that stuff. Stay this one. Stop the run, and now 565 00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:16,680 Speaker 1: I'll set them up for success. Stop the run and 566 00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:19,600 Speaker 1: get after this quarterback. After a great week one, the 567 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:22,480 Speaker 1: pass rush was not consistent enough. Now you have to 568 00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:24,639 Speaker 1: hit Kirk Cousins. You have to force him to make 569 00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:27,880 Speaker 1: bad decisions. So far he hasn't made any bad decisions. 570 00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:30,200 Speaker 1: He has no turnovers. This week. You have to force 571 00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:33,320 Speaker 1: him into interceptions. Take the ball away. You want to 572 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 1: help your offense out like you did last week. You 573 00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:37,359 Speaker 1: call is to force fumble, put the offense within the 574 00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:40,439 Speaker 1: five bull and Chris Carson punches it in. Short fields 575 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:43,879 Speaker 1: are good for the offense. Long fields are good for 576 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:46,840 Speaker 1: the defense. Absolutely, And let's get into rhythm offensively. We 577 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:48,959 Speaker 1: alluded to it just a second ago. The big us 578 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:51,760 Speaker 1: most flash plays we love and those are great and 579 00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:54,119 Speaker 1: want those to continue to happen, but we need to 580 00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:55,639 Speaker 1: be able to sustain where the Seahawks need to be 581 00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:57,800 Speaker 1: able to stay in the long drives and establish that 582 00:26:57,880 --> 00:26:59,399 Speaker 1: run with Chris Carson. That's a good way to do 583 00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:02,280 Speaker 1: that and match. They need to get into rhythm. When 584 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 1: they are are in a rhythm, this offense is scary 585 00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:07,520 Speaker 1: good and you gotta get DK involved. Ka had eleven 586 00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:09,959 Speaker 1: targets last week, but none really down the field. They 587 00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 1: kept him underneath the coverage of lots of slants, hitches 588 00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 1: or what not going across the field in shallows. It's 589 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:16,879 Speaker 1: time for DK to have a breakout game now. The 590 00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:20,040 Speaker 1: focus of the Minnesota defense is going to be unlocket. 591 00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:22,840 Speaker 1: They're not gonna ignore number four team, but it's time 592 00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:25,639 Speaker 1: to see number four team with that blue hair, with 593 00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 1: that nose ring and the air rings. Let him do 594 00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:30,760 Speaker 1: what he does and bounce back. This week, it's time 595 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:33,000 Speaker 1: to go one and on the week you win this game, 596 00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:35,360 Speaker 1: you're two on one. You're back on track. Let's get 597 00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:38,680 Speaker 1: it done. Absolutely looking forward to a great game.
