00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:24,000
Speaker 1: Michael Bumpus. Guys, good to have you back. You had

7
00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:26,520
Speaker 1: a little week off there, and uh, you're back and

8
00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:29,760
Speaker 1: ready to analyze Seahawk football. We were both off on

9
00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:32,560
Speaker 1: if you were. I had big Ray Roberts here. Yeah,

10
00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:37,000
Speaker 1: it was refreshing, refreshing. Was it like a light nice

11
00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:40,360
Speaker 1: lemonade or something? Yeah, sort of like we're more like

12
00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:45,160
Speaker 1: an ipa. Yes, that's where you are bitter, Yes, yeah, strong,

13
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:47,960
Speaker 1: but yeah I'm strong, Yeah, but we're not bitter after

14
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:52,080
Speaker 1: that loss. About that for a transition there, Huh, let's

15
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:55,320
Speaker 1: recap this game last week with the Buccaneers. Um, I

16
00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:59,280
Speaker 1: feel like, you know, on the media side, you sort

17
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:01,640
Speaker 1: of look for every thing that's bad or what's what

18
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:05,000
Speaker 1: to worry about, and then you know, as a player,

19
00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:08,319
Speaker 1: I go, man. I was never seven and two, never

20
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:12,880
Speaker 1: maybe in high school, but seven and two is awfully good.

21
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:16,039
Speaker 1: But but yeah, I understand all of everything and what's

22
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:19,520
Speaker 1: going on because you know, for example, San Francisco went

23
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:22,640
Speaker 1: to Tampa Bay and beat them pretty handily. You know,

24
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:26,520
Speaker 1: they also beat Cincinnati pretty handily on the road, and

25
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 1: the Seahawks have not done that. They have not had

26
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,040
Speaker 1: those kinds of games. They had to go into overtime

27
00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 1: to beat to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. But I'll tell

28
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:37,520
Speaker 1: you what bump. I mean with the quarterback that you have,

29
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:39,560
Speaker 1: and that's the one thing, you know, we can talk.

30
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 1: We're gonna talk all about the defense. And by the way,

31
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:46,319
Speaker 1: coming up, we're gonna get an opponent preview from Jennifer

32
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:49,720
Speaker 1: lee Chan at NBC Sports Bay Area. And then also

33
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 1: we're going to talk to Joey Hunt, who has done

34
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 1: a great job and we'll be talking about him and

35
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:57,480
Speaker 1: what this offense did and uh and then also kJ

36
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:03,279
Speaker 1: Wrights gonna be playing some sort of video game with FIFA. Okay,

37
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 1: it's soccer. I just don't see from the morning from

38
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,679
Speaker 1: the morning show. Yeah, you don't see him as a

39
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 1: soccer guy. He's playing Paul. He's playing Paul Gallant. It's Paul,

40
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 1: a video guy. We will see, Okay, we will find out.

41
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: We'll see if he gets schooled. But guys, what what

42
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:21,800
Speaker 1: was your sort of impression after that game? I think

43
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 1: there was some frustration about the Seahawks defense allowing a

44
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 1: lot of yards. Same thing the week before, giving up

45
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:32,720
Speaker 1: what four and sixty yards to a backup quarterback. But bump,

46
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:34,520
Speaker 1: you know you look now, all of a sudden, I

47
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,440
Speaker 1: feel like we go back and forth on Russell Wilson nationally. Oh,

48
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:40,239
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, he's an MVP candidate. Again, thank

49
00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:42,399
Speaker 1: you very much. But we've kind of known that here

50
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:47,640
Speaker 1: here in the Great Northwest for pretty much the whole season. Yeah,

51
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:50,959
Speaker 1: And with Russell, it seems like every week he has

52
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 1: to prove that he's an MVP to where a guy

53
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:55,679
Speaker 1: like an Aaron Rodgers and gonna have an off week.

54
00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:57,680
Speaker 1: Oh he had an off week. He comes back at

55
00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:59,639
Speaker 1: those a couple of testdowns. Oh, he's back in the mix.

56
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,240
Speaker 1: And I think I think that's the Russell Wilson effect.

57
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 1: That's the I'm not cocky enough, I'm not on the

58
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:08,240
Speaker 1: right media market. My team is not performing at a

59
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,919
Speaker 1: certain level that people expect him to perform. So every

60
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 1: week he has to prove that he's an MVP and

61
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:16,800
Speaker 1: going off a last week, it is what it is.

62
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,119
Speaker 1: I'm at the point now, it's where we're halfway through

63
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 1: the season. Okay, no more moves can be made as

64
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:24,160
Speaker 1: far as trades or whatnot. So just get used to

65
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:26,840
Speaker 1: this defense. I spoke earlier in the week, I think

66
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 1: on the Danny and Paul Show, it's like, this is

67
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:32,000
Speaker 1: the ultimate ben but don't break defense all right. Then

68
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:35,080
Speaker 1: last week they gave the DB's lineup outside shade. They

69
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 1: gave up the slants, they gave up the curls, but

70
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,680
Speaker 1: when it got down into the twenty they kind of

71
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:43,760
Speaker 1: bowed up a little bit. So as a fan it

72
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 1: frustrates me. But as an analyst, I look and I

73
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 1: see what they're doing, and I'm like, okay, I don't.

74
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 1: They don't seem confident enough to take a lot of chances.

75
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 1: So they're gonna keep everything in front and they're gonna

76
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 1: hope that they do enough to let Russell Wilson win

77
00:03:58,440 --> 00:03:59,840
Speaker 1: the game for them at the end of the day.

78
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:04,240
Speaker 1: It's interesting because we were up twenty four to nothing

79
00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 1: against Atlanta, right and they come back and make a

80
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:10,960
Speaker 1: game of it. Everybody goes, oh, you have twenty four nothing.

81
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:14,119
Speaker 1: Last week we're down twenty one to seven, we come back,

82
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:17,279
Speaker 1: take the lead, and it's the same thing, you know,

83
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 1: so it doesn't matter, you know. Defensively, I bump your right.

84
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 1: You're seven and two. You are you are who you are.

85
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 1: I mean, now, you just find ways to win games.

86
00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 1: We've done a pretty good job in that we're seven

87
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,719
Speaker 1: and two. We're about to play a very tough team,

88
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:34,920
Speaker 1: a very tough schedule coming up. I'm curious to see

89
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 1: how we hold up. We usually do play to our competition,

90
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 1: and this, to me, the team we're about to play

91
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 1: is the best team we played all year. And we've

92
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,480
Speaker 1: played New Orleans and we've played Baltimore, who are two

93
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 1: fantastic teams. It is a battle. It is shocking to

94
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 1: me the improvement that San Francisco has made from last

95
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:58,840
Speaker 1: year to this year. Defensively, they averaged last year oh

96
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:07,080
Speaker 1: point one turnovers per game, basically at zero. I think

97
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:11,159
Speaker 1: they had two h point one this year. You know

98
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:13,600
Speaker 1: they're at like one point eight or something like that.

99
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 1: You look at their everything, sacks or off the charts,

100
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:20,680
Speaker 1: yards per game, off the charts, everything. And now I

101
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,520
Speaker 1: was telling you guys earlier, if you took San Francisco

102
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:25,720
Speaker 1: and said, I'm just going to treat them as a player,

103
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:28,240
Speaker 1: and look at that player and the improvement that that

104
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,919
Speaker 1: player made from last year to this year. You would

105
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,719
Speaker 1: swear they are on steroids. So there's no way you

106
00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 1: make that big of an improvement in one year. And

107
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 1: yet they have. And they're fun to watch. They're aggressive,

108
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 1: they're beautible, and I think we you know, we can

109
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 1: run the football on them. I believe defensively, we gotta

110
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 1: take our chances downfield and we got to play errolist

111
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 1: football on defense. But it's gonna be a tough football game.

112
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 1: You know. You say this is the best team that

113
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 1: the Hawks have faced all year. I think this is

114
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 1: the best team that the Niners have faced all year.

115
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 1: Last year, Jimmy goes out early, you know, and they're

116
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:04,400
Speaker 1: not performing, they're not doing the things they need to do,

117
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 1: So for them to make that jump, it's surprising. But

118
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:09,080
Speaker 1: then they makes sense at the same time because they

119
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 1: didn't have their franchise quarterback. But also they haven't played

120
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:14,880
Speaker 1: The hawkshit common opponents will all beat the same guys

121
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:18,080
Speaker 1: except for the Redskins and the Panthers. Other than that,

122
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 1: I think this assumed me the Seahawk team will be

123
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:23,040
Speaker 1: the best team to nineer teams face. That's kind of

124
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 1: interesting talking to people in the Bay Area that you

125
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,600
Speaker 1: got that sort of sense of some trepidation down there,

126
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 1: that they were like, yeah, they have not played a

127
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:33,039
Speaker 1: team like the Seahawks. And if you look at their schedule,

128
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:35,560
Speaker 1: think they have to go to New Orleans and Baltimore

129
00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 1: another playing both those teams. They got to come to Seattle,

130
00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:41,720
Speaker 1: which is always a tough place to win. So yeah,

131
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:43,920
Speaker 1: they're they're kind of a tough schedule, right. They got

132
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:46,600
Speaker 1: Green Bay, they got Baltimore, New Orleans, they got the

133
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:49,720
Speaker 1: Rams again, they got to come at Seattle. Man, we

134
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,320
Speaker 1: got a tough schedule too, but there's just you know,

135
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 1: probably a little bit tougher. Yeah, and they've played an

136
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:58,560
Speaker 1: easier schedule up to this point. Mentioned before, they did

137
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:02,920
Speaker 1: beat their opponents a little pretty soundly as opposed to

138
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,800
Speaker 1: the Seahawks. And that's the thing I think. So, what

139
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 1: are you guys worried about and what would be your

140
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:12,120
Speaker 1: biggest concern for me? I did a thing on sacks

141
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 1: this week, and you know, pressures, hurries, all that stuff,

142
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 1: but sacks are huge, They're drive killers. And you know,

143
00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 1: I went through and looked at all the fifteen sacks

144
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:25,600
Speaker 1: what they resulted in. Resulted in four punts, four fumbles,

145
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:30,320
Speaker 1: three made field goals, no touchdowns, two missfield goals, and

146
00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:34,720
Speaker 1: an end of game. And actually Cincinnati survived two sacks

147
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 1: on a drive, which is why this numbers off by one,

148
00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 1: and we're still able to get a field goal. But

149
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:43,880
Speaker 1: you're looking at nine points there, and this is they're

150
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 1: kind of like turnovers and that you're getting extra possessions.

151
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 1: To me, that's where it needs to happen. I don't

152
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 1: know how you fix it. They've blitzed, they've done everything.

153
00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 1: But to me, that's that's a big deal. But it

154
00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 1: also goes hand in hand with pass coverage too, right, Paul, Well,

155
00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:01,920
Speaker 1: David and I are thinking on the same wavelength. I mean,

156
00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 1: that's what we grew up as you know, sacks are

157
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 1: you know, pass rush and pass coverage. And you know,

158
00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:10,360
Speaker 1: when I was watching last week's game, I go, there's time.

159
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:14,160
Speaker 1: We don't give our d line enough. We don't give

160
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:16,880
Speaker 1: him enough time to get the sack. We're playing eight

161
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:19,880
Speaker 1: nine yards off, we're back pedaling, they're running these eight

162
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:22,520
Speaker 1: ten yard curl routes in front of us or turn routes.

163
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 1: It's just pitch and catch along the way. We're not

164
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:30,640
Speaker 1: contesting the short stuff along the way there. And you know,

165
00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:34,400
Speaker 1: you watch San Francisco twenty thirteen, we were a bit

166
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:38,439
Speaker 1: this way and that you could rush four guys. You

167
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:42,199
Speaker 1: can play tight zone defense contest because you know the

168
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:46,000
Speaker 1: football is coming out quickly. Now we rush four, it's

169
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 1: not you know, it doesn't come out that fast, and

170
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 1: so it's just tough. I mean, right now, it's a

171
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:53,559
Speaker 1: little bit of both. It's I don't think we're that

172
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 1: far off. But at the same time, I go, there

173
00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,559
Speaker 1: was a I think I text both of you. We

174
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:02,680
Speaker 1: ran a blitz, sent six guys. We Brent, Bobby Wagner

175
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:06,319
Speaker 1: came up on the guard. We brought Kendricks around on

176
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:08,079
Speaker 1: the other side. He was on the other side guard,

177
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 1: and he came around the other side of the football

178
00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 1: to the on the center side. Bobby did an inside

179
00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:15,719
Speaker 1: swim move. It was a fantastic swim move and he

180
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:17,920
Speaker 1: would have won that battle on his own. And if

181
00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:20,079
Speaker 1: we were playing zone behind it, we probably get a

182
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:21,520
Speaker 1: sack as he wouldn't have been able to throw it.

183
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 1: In this case, Kendricks comes around into that same exact

184
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,480
Speaker 1: gap and they kind of bump into each other. I

185
00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 1: watched the bull rush from Clowney, I was like, God,

186
00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 1: he didn't give him any space. I read he's got

187
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 1: to win that battle against the center. He's got to

188
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:38,400
Speaker 1: get up field so that the center can't come off

189
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,840
Speaker 1: the stunt. And in that case, he just got pushed

190
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 1: sideways into the guard. He was able to come off

191
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 1: and pick up Kendricks. So there's there's fundamental things there.

192
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,199
Speaker 1: You can't just X and O things. You got to

193
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:53,480
Speaker 1: execute it properly, and I just feel like sometimes we're

194
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,480
Speaker 1: just missing that piece. Yeah. The thing that kind of

195
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,680
Speaker 1: keeps me optimistic is because I look at his defense

196
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:03,599
Speaker 1: play and I see where improvements can be made. And

197
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:05,960
Speaker 1: this is a guy who's not with these guys Monday

198
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:08,599
Speaker 1: through Saturday putting in all the time they put in.

199
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:11,400
Speaker 1: So I'd like to think that this defensive staff is

200
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 1: looking at the same film and feeling some of the

201
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,520
Speaker 1: same things, like, Hey, maybe we should tweak this, maybe

202
00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 1: we should tweak that, And maybe they're saving something for

203
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,720
Speaker 1: these guys. Maybe they felt that they can be as

204
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 1: vanilla as possible through week one through seven eight and

205
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,880
Speaker 1: meet these guys here and be like, Okay, now let's

206
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:32,600
Speaker 1: throw the kitchen sinking it. This isn't high school football

207
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:36,120
Speaker 1: when you're saving stuff for the playoffs this week, I

208
00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:39,880
Speaker 1: guarantee you see something on Monday that you haven't seen

209
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:42,720
Speaker 1: all your own film guarantee. I'm sure that. Now, don't

210
00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:46,680
Speaker 1: you your hope that he's right? Though? Right? They're good,

211
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:51,520
Speaker 1: these beautiful executed blitzers, all kinds of takeaways, sacks and whatnot.

212
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:54,079
Speaker 1: Because I feel like we got the players, I really do.

213
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:56,599
Speaker 1: I feel the schemes right. It's just we got to

214
00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:58,679
Speaker 1: just bring it in a little bit tighter. Well, i'll

215
00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:01,040
Speaker 1: tell you what coming up next. Well, ask Jennifer Leechan

216
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:03,920
Speaker 1: if she thinks they have the right personnel. She's with

217
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:08,440
Speaker 1: NBC Sports Bay Area, and as I mentioned, we talked

218
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:10,800
Speaker 1: to a few people down there and they're just as

219
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:13,439
Speaker 1: afraid of the Seahawks as the Seahawks are of the

220
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:15,680
Speaker 1: forty nine ers. We'll do that next on Hawks Live.

221
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:19,400
Speaker 1: Hawks's Live every Thursday from seven to nine Live. It's

222
00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:24,960
Speaker 1: now Call Me Casino on seven ten ESPN Seattle. Welcome

223
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:28,839
Speaker 1: back to Hawks Live. Dave Wyman, Michael Bumpus and Paul Moyer,

224
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,600
Speaker 1: and on the phone we have Jennifer Leechan from NBC

225
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:35,080
Speaker 1: Sports Bay Area. Jennifer, thank you so much for joining us.

226
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:39,640
Speaker 1: Absolutely glad for it's glad to be on all right.

227
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:43,559
Speaker 1: So are you and everybody down there as afraid of

228
00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:47,320
Speaker 1: the Seahawks as the Seahawks fans and everyone up here

229
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:50,280
Speaker 1: is afraid of the forty nine ers because man, they

230
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:55,679
Speaker 1: look really good at eight. No. I think with this

231
00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 1: these two teams, the feeling is always mutual. I think,

232
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,200
Speaker 1: no matter what the records are, these two teams come

233
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:04,360
Speaker 1: together and play each other hard. You really never know

234
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:07,080
Speaker 1: who's going to be on top of the end of it. Jennifer,

235
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:10,240
Speaker 1: It's pretty amazing what they have done down there because

236
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:12,559
Speaker 1: you know, a little while ago they hire they take

237
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,800
Speaker 1: kind of a maybe a flyer on Kyle Shannon. I mean,

238
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,760
Speaker 1: I think he was a good offensive coordinator clearly, and

239
00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 1: then you hire a guy out of the TV booth

240
00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 1: and John Lynch, I mean, great NFL guy, But these guys,

241
00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:27,680
Speaker 1: I mean, it's got to be a really proud moment

242
00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:30,760
Speaker 1: for those guys and ownership taking a chance, a little

243
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:32,520
Speaker 1: bit of a chance on guys with not a whole

244
00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:35,280
Speaker 1: lot of experience. But man, it sure seems to be

245
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:40,319
Speaker 1: paying off for those two. You know, that's true. You know,

246
00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 1: it wasn't without a little heartache. The first years. They

247
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:45,680
Speaker 1: were very tough. Everybody wondered if they actually were going

248
00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:48,440
Speaker 1: to make it through their full six year contract. Now,

249
00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:51,440
Speaker 1: you know, all of a sudden, they look like they

250
00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:55,080
Speaker 1: could be a huge success and that the Foreigners organization

251
00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:58,560
Speaker 1: made the right decision in hiring both of them. Hey, Jennifer,

252
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 1: going into actually a few weeks until the season, my

253
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:04,000
Speaker 1: opinion was that the forty nine ers were missing a

254
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:07,920
Speaker 1: number one receiver. Do you guys feel like Emmanuel Sanders

255
00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:10,040
Speaker 1: is the piece that will put you over the top.

256
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:13,959
Speaker 1: I think he's definitely a big part of it. I

257
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:16,679
Speaker 1: think he's even exceeded expectations that they had for him

258
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:20,600
Speaker 1: before he arrived. They got him involved very quickly, which

259
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:23,040
Speaker 1: is you know, it's always interesting to see what's going

260
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:26,319
Speaker 1: to happen, because now with the Seahawks picking up Josh Gordon,

261
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:29,160
Speaker 1: he Carroll says that they're not sure whether he's going

262
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:31,400
Speaker 1: to play, But the plan for Emmanuel Sanders was immediately

263
00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 1: to get him in action, and he obviously did. He

264
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:35,880
Speaker 1: had a huge game this I mean he played a

265
00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:37,480
Speaker 1: ton of snaps the first game, but even had a

266
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:41,560
Speaker 1: bigger game facing Arizona last Thursday. So he's been a huge,

267
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:43,960
Speaker 1: huge part of the offense and has done a great

268
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:47,079
Speaker 1: job since he's been in town, you know, Jennifer. The

269
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,560
Speaker 1: one thing that's interesting, there's been some turnarounds in the NFL.

270
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:53,480
Speaker 1: I mean, at least from a win lost standpoint, you know,

271
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:55,679
Speaker 1: to watch him go from one to seven to eight, No,

272
00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 1: that's not unprecedent, but to see what they've done defensively.

273
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:03,360
Speaker 1: I was pulling up some statistics from last year. They

274
00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 1: average point o one our turnovers per game. They're sacks

275
00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:12,360
Speaker 1: almost everything. It's either double in the positive or in

276
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:15,040
Speaker 1: half in yards and all that stuff. I've never seen

277
00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:17,160
Speaker 1: this big a turnaround. And I know they got d

278
00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,800
Speaker 1: Ford and they got Bosa as well, but what is

279
00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:23,920
Speaker 1: it that other people aren't seeing. That's the biggest reason

280
00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:28,360
Speaker 1: for this turnaround on defense. I mean, I gotta say

281
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 1: part of it, a huge part of it is, you know,

282
00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:34,520
Speaker 1: former Seahawks Richard Sherman being healthy. Granted they didn't throw

283
00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:36,480
Speaker 1: a lot to him last year, but him being healthy

284
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:39,920
Speaker 1: on one side, the Emmanuel Moseley stepping in for a Kella.

285
00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,120
Speaker 1: Whether it's been the secondary has been really good. The

286
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:45,160
Speaker 1: pass rush and the coverage obviously is very connected. So

287
00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:47,880
Speaker 1: with the quarterback having less time to throw, they have

288
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:50,120
Speaker 1: had to cover less and it's really just made the

289
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:53,320
Speaker 1: defense more sound. Obviously, losing Kwon Alexander for the season

290
00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:55,880
Speaker 1: is a huge loss for them. But you know, I

291
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:59,480
Speaker 1: think Fred Warner is very smart. He's progressed even more

292
00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:02,280
Speaker 1: in his year. He was a great rookie. But well,

293
00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 1: it'll be a challenge for Jerry Gilaw to step in

294
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 1: and have that position. Jennifer Jimmy Garoppolo. How is he

295
00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:11,360
Speaker 1: viewed down there? Ax, I'm look at his number seventy

296
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 1: one percent. Anytime you're over seventy percent completion percentage, it's

297
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:20,360
Speaker 1: it's good. But he's thrown seven interceptions thirteen touchdowns. Is

298
00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:24,320
Speaker 1: he viewed as kind of a game manager for your

299
00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 1: really good running game or do do you feel like

300
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 1: he's a guy that can actually go out and buy

301
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:34,680
Speaker 1: himself win a game for you. I think kind of

302
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:40,240
Speaker 1: the conception was before last week's game in Arizona, is

303
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 1: that he was kind of a game manager and of course,

304
00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 1: you know, you never want to say that to your

305
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:47,520
Speaker 1: quarterback or about him, but you know people were kind

306
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:49,680
Speaker 1: of mentioning that, and then he goes out and has

307
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:52,360
Speaker 1: a huge game against Arizona because Arizona kind of shut

308
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:55,240
Speaker 1: down the run game. So it's you know, with that

309
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:57,760
Speaker 1: last game, I think there's people that are going to

310
00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,840
Speaker 1: be less likely to say that about him because it

311
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:03,360
Speaker 1: looks like he does have the ability to be the

312
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:06,600
Speaker 1: guy that the team can rely on when he is

313
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:10,640
Speaker 1: behind center. Hey, Jim, when I watched this defense play,

314
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:14,720
Speaker 1: I see them flying around having fun talking smack. Is

315
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:20,240
Speaker 1: that part of the Richard Sherman effect? You know, a

316
00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:23,360
Speaker 1: part of it is is him. But really, this locker

317
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 1: rooms is very unique, and I actually just wrote a

318
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:30,200
Speaker 1: story about how between the last three seasons the locker

319
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:33,040
Speaker 1: room really isn't much different. I Mean, the biggest question

320
00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:34,840
Speaker 1: I've had is what is it like going into an

321
00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:39,320
Speaker 1: undefeated locker room? But really the attitude and mood. Obviously,

322
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:42,520
Speaker 1: they're of course happier winning, but it was never really miserable.

323
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:44,800
Speaker 1: When they were oh and nine or when they were

324
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:48,080
Speaker 1: two and seven, it was, you know, still a group

325
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:49,960
Speaker 1: of guys that really enjoyed being around each other, and

326
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:52,400
Speaker 1: it's really Yes, Richard Sherman and some of the Sea

327
00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:55,400
Speaker 1: you know, the veteran leaders have done that, but it's

328
00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:58,200
Speaker 1: the roster that John Lynch and Kyle shannonha put together,

329
00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:01,240
Speaker 1: getting the guys that really enjoy the game of football

330
00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:03,560
Speaker 1: and they really enjoy each other. They don't necessarily have

331
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,200
Speaker 1: to have the same beliefs or likes, but they all

332
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:09,760
Speaker 1: really enjoyed being together. They're very, very close guys that

333
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:11,720
Speaker 1: have been in other locker rooms that have come in here.

334
00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:15,440
Speaker 1: I mean, Emmanuel Sanders said it very clearly that he

335
00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:18,359
Speaker 1: was really surprised how close everyone was and how much

336
00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:20,359
Speaker 1: fun he was having just in the tunnel and running

337
00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:23,040
Speaker 1: out into the field. You know, the leader I guess

338
00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:26,000
Speaker 1: of this, at least on the sidelines is their defensive coordinator,

339
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:30,680
Speaker 1: Robert sala Is. Robert sala I could have a newcomer,

340
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:33,840
Speaker 1: but my goodness, does he have energy. Tell us about

341
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:37,120
Speaker 1: him and how the perception of him as the coach there.

342
00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:41,920
Speaker 1: It's been quite a journey for him, him being on

343
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:43,920
Speaker 1: the hot seat the last two years and now he's

344
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:47,159
Speaker 1: being spoken about as the next head coaching candidate. He

345
00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:49,760
Speaker 1: has finally I think got the pieces together, the guys

346
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:52,920
Speaker 1: are playing much more sound football. And he's a really

347
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:55,520
Speaker 1: fun guy to watch. I'm sure you heard the quote

348
00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:58,119
Speaker 1: that he actually blacked out during those huge plays for

349
00:17:58,160 --> 00:17:59,879
Speaker 1: the defense when they had that goal line stand. He

350
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:03,000
Speaker 1: doesn't really remember a whole lot, which is kind of funny.

351
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:07,720
Speaker 1: But he is just, you know, pure unadulterated enthusiasm for

352
00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:09,479
Speaker 1: the game, which is always great to have on your

353
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:11,600
Speaker 1: coaching staff. Yeah, and he was a guy that was

354
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:14,200
Speaker 1: up here for a while. Yeah. Yeah, now he's he's

355
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:17,199
Speaker 1: got some energy. I love watching him on the sideline. Well, Jennifer,

356
00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:20,280
Speaker 1: we really appreciate your time, and uh, we look forward

357
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:22,040
Speaker 1: to seeing you. Hopefully we'll see you down there in

358
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:25,840
Speaker 1: San San Francisco. I'm thinking of the old candlestick. We'll

359
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:28,920
Speaker 1: be down in Santa Clara on Monday night. Yeah. Thanks,

360
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:31,200
Speaker 1: I will be there, looking forward to me to you.

361
00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:34,240
Speaker 1: Thank you so much. There she goes Jennifer lee Chan

362
00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:37,640
Speaker 1: from NBC Sports Bay Area. Coming up next, we'll talk

363
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:40,400
Speaker 1: to maybe the smartest guy on the team. I think

364
00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:44,479
Speaker 1: he thinks so. But Russell Wilson probably the smartest guy

365
00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:47,960
Speaker 1: on the team. Do you think you would be? I

366
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:50,600
Speaker 1: think he is so big there. It's not him, it's

367
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:55,359
Speaker 1: me two center, Joey Hunt. He knows pretty much everybody's position.

368
00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:59,000
Speaker 1: We'll talk to him next on Hawks Live. Hawks's Live

Speaker 1: and Michael Pumpus. And on the phone, we have the

373
00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:19,040
Speaker 1: smartest football player on the team, Joey Hunt. I've dubbed

374
00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 1: you the smartest football player on the team, Joey wow

375
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:26,680
Speaker 1: Man as much appreciate it. That's that's a way, yeah,

376
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:28,600
Speaker 1: I know. And that's how you suck up to the guest,

377
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:31,880
Speaker 1: you know. So he's nice to us, all the answers

378
00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:33,920
Speaker 1: we want. But hey, Joey had a great game, man.

379
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:38,440
Speaker 1: And really, the only time I saw in Dominican SU's

380
00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:41,080
Speaker 1: name called was when he got a holding penalty. He

381
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:44,120
Speaker 1: was cheating, cheating his ass off. He tried to pull

382
00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:47,800
Speaker 1: Joey away from from a block. But how did you

383
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:51,560
Speaker 1: feel like your your game win? I feel like it

384
00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:53,080
Speaker 1: was a good game, you know, it was a good

385
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 1: uh first start of the year, and Um, it was

386
00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:58,520
Speaker 1: a good team win. We were able to play together

387
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:01,359
Speaker 1: as an offensive line will and overall thought it was

388
00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:05,760
Speaker 1: a really good game. Hey, Joey, Um, in my years

389
00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:08,760
Speaker 1: of playing football and watching football, the offensive line is

390
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:11,879
Speaker 1: the closest group on a football team. Please tell me

391
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:16,159
Speaker 1: that is the truth with this team. Yeah, exactly. Um,

392
00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:19,399
Speaker 1: We're definitely a tight knit group. Luckily we have a

393
00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:21,679
Speaker 1: We got a really good room this year. I mean

394
00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:25,360
Speaker 1: everybody in the room, from from Dwayne all the way

395
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:27,880
Speaker 1: down to Phil, you know, the youngest guy in the room.

396
00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:31,160
Speaker 1: It's a real tight knit group. Everybody comes in ready

397
00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:36,200
Speaker 1: to work with great attitude, and everybody comes together. Honestly,

398
00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:37,960
Speaker 1: I feel like we're really there for each other and

399
00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:41,280
Speaker 1: communicate with one another, like even guys who aren't dressed

400
00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:44,359
Speaker 1: on Sundays being there asking we need anything, and then

401
00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:47,320
Speaker 1: communicating within the guys in the room and be able

402
00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:49,120
Speaker 1: to work with each other. I feel like it kind

403
00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:52,280
Speaker 1: of translates into the on the field and somewhere to

404
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:56,480
Speaker 1: be able to do and it helps communicating, which is awesome. Joey,

405
00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:59,800
Speaker 1: It's crazy this your fourth year. It seems like yes,

406
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:01,880
Speaker 1: or do you when you were drafted out of TCU

407
00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:05,520
Speaker 1: and you know when when Justin went down, do they

408
00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:08,360
Speaker 1: change anything? I know you're you are smart. They talk

409
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,080
Speaker 1: about it, Pete talks about it. I listened to Dwayne

410
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:14,520
Speaker 1: Brown today when they're on with Dave Wyman and those guys,

411
00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:17,080
Speaker 1: and they talked about how smart you are. But do

412
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:19,320
Speaker 1: you guys do anything and take advantage of some of

413
00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:24,920
Speaker 1: your skill sets too? Um? No, I would say so. Honestly,

414
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:27,280
Speaker 1: I feel like we know what we want to do

415
00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:30,920
Speaker 1: on offense, and uh, BRIT's a real smart football player

416
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,439
Speaker 1: two though, so I mean he definitely knows what's going

417
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:35,080
Speaker 1: on out there as well. So I feel like there's

418
00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:39,040
Speaker 1: nothing anything that we do any differently as far as that. So,

419
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:40,359
Speaker 1: I feel like we tried to go out there and

420
00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:42,440
Speaker 1: one offense and do what we do as a team.

421
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:46,560
Speaker 1: Is there any advantage to uh, because Justin's what six

422
00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:49,560
Speaker 1: five six six? You're you're about? Yeah, they've list you

423
00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:52,800
Speaker 1: at six two? Is there an advantage to a center?

424
00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:58,639
Speaker 1: I guess what's that say? Did I say? I guess? No? No?

425
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:01,159
Speaker 1: I said they listed you at six two? No? I

426
00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:05,800
Speaker 1: was no, no, no, Look I trust me, man. They

427
00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:08,280
Speaker 1: I used to argue about my height too. Man. They

428
00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:10,640
Speaker 1: never gave me away. Assure you, man, I was thinking

429
00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:14,119
Speaker 1: you're probably closer to sixty three. Joey, how's that? But

430
00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:16,800
Speaker 1: is there an advantage at center and maybe not being

431
00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:20,560
Speaker 1: that six foot six range? How's that? I mean, I

432
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:22,399
Speaker 1: don't know about center, but I feel like anywhere all

433
00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:25,280
Speaker 1: in line, I mean, yeah, I naturally have better leverage

434
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:28,800
Speaker 1: than all those guys. Yeah, every time. Just so if

435
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:31,480
Speaker 1: I stand straight up, you know, we both stand straight up,

436
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:34,480
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be six inches five inches shorter than below them.

437
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:36,960
Speaker 1: So I feel like, yeah, there's natural leveraging there. But

438
00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:39,080
Speaker 1: the end of the day, if I stayed up high,

439
00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:41,200
Speaker 1: I get my hips high, I'm gonna end up on

440
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:44,320
Speaker 1: my butt, just not in a composition. So you gotta

441
00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:46,840
Speaker 1: still have compallible. But yeah, you either some natural leveras there.

442
00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:51,119
Speaker 1: You know, Joey's gonna be the largest man in the

443
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:54,760
Speaker 1: history of the world who has a small man's complex

444
00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:58,680
Speaker 1: because everybody and I keep going, he's not small man.

445
00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:03,200
Speaker 1: He's six two three. Yeah. And and actually we yeah,

446
00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:05,200
Speaker 1: we talked to Dwayne today. He did have He talked

447
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:08,639
Speaker 1: about your your built in leverage. But really and then

448
00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:12,119
Speaker 1: the other thing about blocking out is say is if

449
00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:14,320
Speaker 1: you're just a pest, right, I mean, if you just

450
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:16,920
Speaker 1: get in the way and you know, move your feet

451
00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:19,320
Speaker 1: and you have good hands and good feet, I mean

452
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:23,160
Speaker 1: that's really you don't have to necessarily pull a DJ

453
00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:25,479
Speaker 1: Fluker on every single play. I mean, it's just more

454
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:29,239
Speaker 1: about getting between the ball. Got you gotta stop your

455
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:31,840
Speaker 1: man from making the tackles. So I feel like that's

456
00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:33,919
Speaker 1: a big part offensive line place. So getting the way

457
00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:36,960
Speaker 1: of them and slowing them down to get there, you

458
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:38,720
Speaker 1: can get the job done. There's multiple ways to do it.

459
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:41,399
Speaker 1: All right. We're talking to Joey Hunt here center for

460
00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:43,560
Speaker 1: the Seahawks, and how are you going to get in

461
00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:46,199
Speaker 1: the way of that defensive line? The forty nine ers?

462
00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,080
Speaker 1: What have you seen from them? Boy? They got they

463
00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:50,240
Speaker 1: got thirty sacks. That's a pretty good group. What are

464
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:54,240
Speaker 1: you seeing on film? Yeah, they're they're a talented group.

465
00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:56,680
Speaker 1: You see that broad when you turn on the tape

466
00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:58,480
Speaker 1: and you see how deep they are as a group,

467
00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:01,920
Speaker 1: And I feel like that's something um they take advantage

468
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:04,520
Speaker 1: of and they all work together well and they have

469
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:07,280
Speaker 1: depth throughout the entire game, which I feel like is

470
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:09,720
Speaker 1: big for them. But they're they're definitely talented, they get

471
00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:11,960
Speaker 1: up the quarterback, they can stop the run, and we're

472
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 1: looking forward to the challenge. Well, I say that it

473
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:17,639
Speaker 1: is going to be a challenge. I mean, they that

474
00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:20,720
Speaker 1: the one thing about their pass rushes is pretty impressive.

475
00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:24,840
Speaker 1: Butts watching them on film, they you know, they play

476
00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:28,240
Speaker 1: it high at times because they are pass rushers, and

477
00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:31,359
Speaker 1: they do look a bit susceptible to the run game. Um,

478
00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:34,600
Speaker 1: I imagine you guys. You guys like to run the

479
00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:36,359
Speaker 1: football anyway. So that's gonna be a big part of

480
00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:39,560
Speaker 1: the game plan going in this week for sure. You

481
00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:41,680
Speaker 1: know we're going every week one to run the football

482
00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:44,000
Speaker 1: and h I feel like, yeah, we wouldn't have a

483
00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:46,240
Speaker 1: balance attack. I feel like that's kind of what gets

484
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:49,520
Speaker 1: our offense going. And um, that's something we're gonna want

485
00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:51,800
Speaker 1: to do on weekend and week out. I feel like,

486
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:53,520
Speaker 1: I mean, we want to get one of the top run.

487
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:55,359
Speaker 1: Even last weekend we still went out there, right, I

488
00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:57,359
Speaker 1: was just trying to run the ball. So I feel

489
00:24:57,359 --> 00:24:59,280
Speaker 1: like every week we're gonna try to go out there

490
00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:01,879
Speaker 1: on the football and um just see how the game flows.

491
00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:04,639
Speaker 1: You never know really how it goes, um honestly, so,

492
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:06,399
Speaker 1: but yeah, as when we got there, come with a

493
00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:08,960
Speaker 1: balance attack like we do every week. Joey, tell us

494
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:11,399
Speaker 1: what it's like in the huddle with with Russell Wilson,

495
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:14,000
Speaker 1: because I think early on in the early years and

496
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:16,239
Speaker 1: we were all here, I know you were still back

497
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:19,040
Speaker 1: at TCU, Joey, but I mean he came off as

498
00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:22,159
Speaker 1: kind of a boy scout. He was always positive and everything.

499
00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:24,400
Speaker 1: And I don't know if he you know, the veterans

500
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:26,920
Speaker 1: were sort of skeptical, but man, I mean he this

501
00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:31,399
Speaker 1: team seems to reflect his attitude. Just being around Russell.

502
00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:34,639
Speaker 1: I kind of compare him to Dave Craig who we

503
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,280
Speaker 1: played with. He never thought he was gonna lose. He

504
00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:39,960
Speaker 1: always thought he was in every single game. And then

505
00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:42,119
Speaker 1: you know a lot of times that that sort of

506
00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:46,119
Speaker 1: positivity comes off as phony and it is. It is

507
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:48,720
Speaker 1: not with him to talk about him and h and

508
00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:51,239
Speaker 1: what he's like to be around, especially you know when

509
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:55,400
Speaker 1: you're making a fourth quarter comeback drive, Yeah, no doubt,

510
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:57,040
Speaker 1: I mean you hit you hit the nail on the

511
00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:01,360
Speaker 1: to him on the head with that one. Um. Yeah.

512
00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:04,679
Speaker 1: He comes out every day, He comes out of practice

513
00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:06,960
Speaker 1: every day with like that toy battitude. He comes the

514
00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:10,760
Speaker 1: meetings every day. I mean he really believes. I mean,

515
00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:12,440
Speaker 1: it's just a great opportunity. Honestly, I feel like he

516
00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:16,760
Speaker 1: takes everything as the opportunity and um so like when

517
00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:18,760
Speaker 1: we have the drive to go for he just strigas.

518
00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:21,800
Speaker 1: He's just like believing. He always believes. Honestly, I feel

519
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:23,880
Speaker 1: like he just takes advantage of every opportunity he gets.

520
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:28,080
Speaker 1: But uh, yeah, you hit perfect. He he never thinks

521
00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:30,760
Speaker 1: that we're out. I mean there's been some games. I

522
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:32,840
Speaker 1: mean a few years back where a couple of years

523
00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:34,200
Speaker 1: back when we were down pretty bad and he was

524
00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:37,600
Speaker 1: still on the siline everybody stay up, you know, like believing,

525
00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:40,639
Speaker 1: and it wasn't looking very good. But uh and I

526
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:42,800
Speaker 1: feel like he's anyway believes it, like he was ready

527
00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:46,200
Speaker 1: to go. He's like two touchdown, onside kick touchdown, onside

528
00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:53,639
Speaker 1: kick touchdown and well yeah who knows, ye, so but

529
00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:55,560
Speaker 1: uh and I and he really believes it. I mean

530
00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:58,159
Speaker 1: I feel like he does it. He does it every day.

531
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:00,399
Speaker 1: He does it in the building, and he does it

532
00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:02,240
Speaker 1: from the field. He does it practice and you know,

533
00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:05,480
Speaker 1: shot flight. It's it's some genuine and you really just

534
00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:09,760
Speaker 1: have to leave it because that's all it is. Hey, Joey,

535
00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:12,600
Speaker 1: I am a high school head football coach, and my

536
00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:16,280
Speaker 1: offensive alignment are always running to the sideline after a

537
00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:19,280
Speaker 1: pancake block. Do you guys still get as hyped off

538
00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:21,840
Speaker 1: of pancake blocks as and more just about alignment assignment

539
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:25,760
Speaker 1: type stuff? Oh nah, Yeah, you gave more hype, even

540
00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:29,000
Speaker 1: more hype in the NFL about pancake blocks. It's way

541
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:31,159
Speaker 1: harder to get those man in the league, just because

542
00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:35,800
Speaker 1: it's way harder to getting a grown man to end

543
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:38,360
Speaker 1: up on his back. So yeah, we're always getting hype

544
00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:42,400
Speaker 1: about those. Gonna change a little bit on you here. Here,

545
00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:44,800
Speaker 1: you're a Texas kid. Went to TCU. My kids just

546
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:48,479
Speaker 1: better of fact, two weeks ago, I've been crying like crazy.

547
00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:53,280
Speaker 1: They just moved to Dallas. Um, so I'm yeah, yeah,

548
00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:56,159
Speaker 1: but you got here in the world. Yeah, you know

549
00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:59,120
Speaker 1: what I do. My I think mom, mom, and dad

550
00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:00,720
Speaker 1: would be moving out there as soon as soon my

551
00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:04,200
Speaker 1: daughter has some children there. Um, big game this week though,

552
00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:08,480
Speaker 1: you guys got the Longhorns. Is because TCU wasn't in

553
00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:12,680
Speaker 1: the Big twelve for thirty years? Is that a rival game?

554
00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:15,920
Speaker 1: I mean, is that a big deal? This week? No?

555
00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:20,119
Speaker 1: They actually played UT like two two weeks, two weekends ago. Oh,

556
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:21,640
Speaker 1: I thought they were playing them this week. I don't.

557
00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:25,520
Speaker 1: Let's say there there it goes, my great Joey, pretend

558
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:30,000
Speaker 1: like they're playing them this week. Yeah. NOA, we know

559
00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:33,600
Speaker 1: we've wanted to I think six out of seven meeting

560
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:37,080
Speaker 1: now six out of eight meetings. So since we've been

561
00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:39,400
Speaker 1: joined the Big Twelve, we've been doing pretty good in there.

562
00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:43,280
Speaker 1: Yeah you know, you know I said, Joey's really smart.

563
00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:47,040
Speaker 1: I'm not. You're not, Paul, Sorry, I'm aging. I don't

564
00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:49,120
Speaker 1: know why I saw it. I just looked it up.

565
00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:52,120
Speaker 1: I'm clearly my thing didn't get refreshed. I blame that

566
00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:56,920
Speaker 1: in our production. You're good, honestly, I just want to

567
00:28:56,960 --> 00:29:01,360
Speaker 1: do some shade of UT. But there you go down. Yeah, no,

568
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:03,760
Speaker 1: my little sister goes there. My little sister actually goes

569
00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:05,720
Speaker 1: to UT though, So I don't have any bad blood

570
00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:08,960
Speaker 1: swords against them or anything like that. We talked to

571
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:12,400
Speaker 1: Brandon Jackson. He said, he said, horns down through that

572
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:14,600
Speaker 1: one in there Horndown. Well, yeah, you know, he's a

573
00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:18,960
Speaker 1: Red Raider man. They're different. Yeah. Hey, Joey, thanks for

579
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:39,440
Speaker 1: trip around the NFL with the Professor John Clayton. That's

580
00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:43,400
Speaker 1: next on Hawks Live. Hawks Slive every Thursday from seven

581
00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:48,240
Speaker 1: to nine live a snow Qualmy Casino on seven ten ESPN, Seattle.

582
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:52,680
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the snow Qualmie Casino. It's Hawks Live.

583
00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:55,440
Speaker 1: Dave Wyman, Paul Moyer, and Michael Bumpus and now we're

584
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:59,200
Speaker 1: joined by the Professor John Clayton. Professor, are you enjoying

585
00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:02,520
Speaker 1: the game to you know? It's in interesting games because

586
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:04,640
Speaker 1: again it's like I've never seen Philip Rivers make this

587
00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:07,640
Speaker 1: many mistakes. I mean, he's almost been eligible for about

588
00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:10,640
Speaker 1: four interceptions. And the Raiders, I mean, I think you

589
00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:12,640
Speaker 1: can see the improvement of the team with the John

590
00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:16,120
Speaker 1: Gruden play calling and what they're doing with the running

591
00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 1: backs and all that stuff. But an interesting game. Yeah,

592
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:22,000
Speaker 1: I'm rooting for John Gruden to turn things around. And

593
00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:26,120
Speaker 1: you know, you see what happened with in San Francisco.

594
00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:29,640
Speaker 1: I mean, look, you brought in Shanahan and John Lynch

595
00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:33,080
Speaker 1: and didn't work right away last year. They're four and twelve,

596
00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:36,120
Speaker 1: and so yeah, for the Raiders, I mean their second

597
00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:39,080
Speaker 1: year with Gruden, I feel like, you know, he can

598
00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:41,560
Speaker 1: turn this thing around. And you know, is Derek Carr

599
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:44,959
Speaker 1: maybe the sneakiest best quarterback in the league right now.

600
00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:48,040
Speaker 1: You don't hear a lot about him. Man, he's good,

601
00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:50,360
Speaker 1: but you can see with Gruden he's kind of like, um,

602
00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:53,000
Speaker 1: I don't know, like, for example, you go week to

603
00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:55,880
Speaker 1: week with how Gruden feels about him, and I don't

604
00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:58,920
Speaker 1: know a long term how he feels about car because

605
00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:01,360
Speaker 1: you know, in the end, it's like he's really tough

606
00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:04,720
Speaker 1: on quarterbacks, but you can see what he's done. He's

607
00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:07,200
Speaker 1: taken the position. It's like, Okay, I'm not gonna let

608
00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:09,760
Speaker 1: him throw real tough passes. I'm gonna try to get

609
00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:12,360
Speaker 1: the running game going. I'm gonna set this thing up.

610
00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:14,840
Speaker 1: And you know, it's like it's it's not there's no

611
00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:17,440
Speaker 1: guarantee that Cars is going to be the quarterback for

612
00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:19,800
Speaker 1: him next year. I think he should because I think

613
00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:23,240
Speaker 1: he's talented enough, but uh, you know, Gruden's tough on

614
00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:25,520
Speaker 1: these quarterbacks, and I know he doesn't like to go

615
00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:28,240
Speaker 1: for rookies. That's one thing that we've seen in the past.

616
00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:33,720
Speaker 1: An interesting dynamic, you know, John, I've never seen we

617
00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:37,240
Speaker 1: were talking earlier. We've seen a team go from one

618
00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:41,280
Speaker 1: and seven to eight no before, you know, but I've

619
00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:44,600
Speaker 1: never seen a team this dominant on defense who really

620
00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:49,200
Speaker 1: struggled last year, couldn't really didn't sack, didn't get turnovers, struggled,

621
00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:52,280
Speaker 1: you know, yardage wise. Can you remember a team that's

622
00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:55,440
Speaker 1: made this big a jump from one year to the next. No,

623
00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:58,480
Speaker 1: I can't, because I was talking to John Lynch about this,

624
00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:01,080
Speaker 1: interviewed him a couple of days ago, and it's like,

625
00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:04,000
Speaker 1: I can't remember because now injuries put them in a

626
00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:06,760
Speaker 1: position where they were the second worst team in the

627
00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:10,160
Speaker 1: league last year. Okay, and you know they I think,

628
00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:13,320
Speaker 1: what was it the number nine turnovers they created during

629
00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:16,600
Speaker 1: the course of the season and incredibly low. Now, they

630
00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:19,200
Speaker 1: knew they needed to get edge pass rushers, and so

631
00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:21,680
Speaker 1: they go for d Ford and they trade for him

632
00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:23,920
Speaker 1: a second round pick. They used the first round pick,

633
00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:26,640
Speaker 1: second pick in the draft on Nick Boza, and they

634
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:29,360
Speaker 1: have three other first round picks on their defensive line

635
00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:33,320
Speaker 1: that shoots everything up. Then they signed Kwam Alexander from

636
00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:36,720
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay, who I've loved this player for so many years.

637
00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:39,600
Speaker 1: He's just so good, and so he comes in and

638
00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:42,080
Speaker 1: does a good job now until it gets his aco injury,

639
00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:45,240
Speaker 1: and it's like, Wow, you improved the front seven enough

640
00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:47,320
Speaker 1: that now you can take the position. You can go

641
00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:50,760
Speaker 1: from the second worst team in the league too, I

642
00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:53,400
Speaker 1: guess technically the best team in the league. I've never

643
00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:56,000
Speaker 1: seen a jump like this. They're the best I've seen

644
00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:59,080
Speaker 1: on film. I mean they're they're at least defensively, they're

645
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:01,440
Speaker 1: they're that good. Hey, John, I want to talk about

646
00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:04,080
Speaker 1: Jason Myers. He's struggled a little bit obviously the past

647
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,440
Speaker 1: couple of weeks, and people might be calling for his

648
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:09,680
Speaker 1: said how difficult is it to find a solid kicker

649
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:12,240
Speaker 1: in the NFL today? Oh, Michael, I love you for

650
00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:16,600
Speaker 1: saying that. I went through the eight kickers who have

651
00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:19,600
Speaker 1: signed with different teams, and again, this is the pool

652
00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:22,840
Speaker 1: of players that are available. Okay, so those eight kickers

653
00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:26,720
Speaker 1: have come in, they're twenty five of thirty nine. Twenty

654
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:29,560
Speaker 1: five of thirty nine, roughly in the sixty percent range

655
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:33,600
Speaker 1: of making field goals and a lot of missed extra points.

656
00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:36,680
Speaker 1: And so there's no pool of guys that are going

657
00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:39,000
Speaker 1: to be better than the guy that you're going to replace.

658
00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:42,360
Speaker 1: I mean, look, for example, the New England Patriots, Stephen

659
00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:45,480
Speaker 1: Goskowski gets an injury, he goes on injured reserve, so

660
00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:49,400
Speaker 1: they bring in, you know, Mike Nugent, who ends up

661
00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:51,880
Speaker 1: getting cut. Then they have to get Nick Folk, who

662
00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:54,880
Speaker 1: was from the AAF. I mean, there's not nothing available.

663
00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:56,760
Speaker 1: And you also look out there and you say, okay,

664
00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:59,320
Speaker 1: who also is available? Blair Walsh? Are you going to

665
00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:03,520
Speaker 1: go with Blair Walsh or Cody Parkey? And Cody Parkey technically,

666
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:06,360
Speaker 1: of all the eight kickers that have come into the

667
00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:10,520
Speaker 1: lag because of injuries, bad kicking or whatever, Cody Parkey

668
00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:13,440
Speaker 1: street for three. Do you want to trust him? And

669
00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:16,560
Speaker 1: and that? And when Ryan suck Up got back healthy

670
00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:19,120
Speaker 1: off the injury reserve list, they let him go. There's

671
00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:22,920
Speaker 1: nobody better on the street than Jason Myers. Yeah, I

672
00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:25,440
Speaker 1: don't want to suck up on our team. No up,

673
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:30,719
Speaker 1: Cody Doink Doink is not the one you want to

674
00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:34,560
Speaker 1: go for. Let's talk some injuries here and uh, we'll

675
00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:38,879
Speaker 1: start with San Francisco man George Kittle is a man

676
00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:41,840
Speaker 1: that is a phenomenal tide and it looked like the

677
00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:44,439
Speaker 1: hype hyper extended his leg last week and it didn't

678
00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:46,640
Speaker 1: even slow him down. But I but I saw I

679
00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:50,359
Speaker 1: didn't practice either. Maybe today, what's the latest on him?

680
00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:52,160
Speaker 1: Got to be a concern. Now again, when you look

681
00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:53,840
Speaker 1: at the Wednesday injury list and you look at the

682
00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:56,960
Speaker 1: long list of both Seattle and San Francisco, you discounted

683
00:34:57,040 --> 00:34:59,400
Speaker 1: because it's the Wednesday injury list. Some of it is

684
00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:02,080
Speaker 1: a matter of resting the players and all those different things.

685
00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:04,120
Speaker 1: But you've got to be concerned because, I mean, George

686
00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:06,000
Speaker 1: Kettle is one of the best tight ends in the league.

687
00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:09,280
Speaker 1: And tight end is so important for Kyle Shanahan's offense,

688
00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:11,719
Speaker 1: and so you know, if he's going to miss the game,

689
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:15,600
Speaker 1: that's huge. Now, again, the one injury on defense that

690
00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:19,480
Speaker 1: affects him as kwam Alexander because he's so good in coverage,

691
00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:21,600
Speaker 1: one of the best coverage linebackers in the league. That

692
00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:25,799
Speaker 1: creates a hole. If they're missing Alexander and Kettle from

693
00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:28,640
Speaker 1: the Arizona games, that's a team that's gonna be a

694
00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:31,480
Speaker 1: lot weakened, so they have to have him back out

695
00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:34,040
Speaker 1: there because tight ends are so important in the Kyle

696
00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:36,840
Speaker 1: Shanahan offense, So that could be a huge injury if

697
00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:40,080
Speaker 1: he can't play. Hey, gentle, I'm looking at the forty

698
00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:43,239
Speaker 1: nine Ers schedule in the Seahawks schedule. How important is

699
00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:45,879
Speaker 1: this game for the Seahawks? Can they afford to take

700
00:35:45,920 --> 00:35:48,120
Speaker 1: a loss and think that they can catch up to

701
00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:50,359
Speaker 1: forty nine Ers and win the division. Now, if they

702
00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:52,560
Speaker 1: take the loss, they're probably gonna be the wild card

703
00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:54,640
Speaker 1: because you know, now it's going to be too tough

704
00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:56,840
Speaker 1: to catch them because there's such a big lead. And

705
00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:59,000
Speaker 1: you know, like in the case of the forty nine

706
00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:01,800
Speaker 1: Ers and the Seahawks, yeah, they have both have tough schedules.

707
00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:04,200
Speaker 1: Forty nine Ers, believe it around tougher than the Seahawks,

708
00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:07,319
Speaker 1: and the closing schedule Seahawks. I mean, the Seahawks are

709
00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:11,239
Speaker 1: like twenty seven and forty nine Ers are thirty first

710
00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:13,880
Speaker 1: as far as the wins, as far as that, as

711
00:36:13,920 --> 00:36:16,600
Speaker 1: far as the closing schedule. But in the end, I mean,

712
00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:18,359
Speaker 1: you've got to win this game to close the gap.

713
00:36:18,520 --> 00:36:20,920
Speaker 1: I mean, both teams are going to be in the playoffs.

714
00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:23,560
Speaker 1: I think because I mean, if they lose this game,

715
00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:26,239
Speaker 1: Seattle can still get to ten or eleven. But if

716
00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:28,840
Speaker 1: you're San Francisco, this is the game that gets you

717
00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:31,600
Speaker 1: a bye week. If you can win this now you're

718
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:34,080
Speaker 1: gonna win twelve. And if you win twelve, depending on

719
00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:37,160
Speaker 1: the tiebreakers against Green Bay or whoever, you're gonna be

720
00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:39,799
Speaker 1: now a home team that's going to get a bye week.

721
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:42,840
Speaker 1: And that's huge. So both teams have so much on

722
00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:46,040
Speaker 1: the line in this game. But you know, one thing

723
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:48,680
Speaker 1: that's the more I think about this, this game against

724
00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:51,759
Speaker 1: Seattle is like, Okay, you favor the forty nine ers

725
00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:54,440
Speaker 1: they got. You know, they can rush for drop seven

726
00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:57,280
Speaker 1: and do different things. But again changes on the Kualme

727
00:36:57,320 --> 00:36:59,880
Speaker 1: Alexander thing. That's going to change some things in their coverage.

728
00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:02,200
Speaker 1: But you know, in the end, Seattle, I think can

729
00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:04,880
Speaker 1: have a pretty close game and do pretty well in

730
00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:08,480
Speaker 1: this game. You know, Pete's really tried to manage the

731
00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:13,160
Speaker 1: expectations on the Josh Gordon signing. UM been working hard.

732
00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:15,680
Speaker 1: He's just trying to learn the system. What do you

733
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:19,720
Speaker 1: think happens this week? I think maybe twenty plays, maybe

734
00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:24,640
Speaker 1: two catches, something like that, because he like Quandre Diggs

735
00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:27,160
Speaker 1: has to get into the system to see where they fit.

736
00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:30,160
Speaker 1: But when you think about this, now, I know that

737
00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:33,160
Speaker 1: Josh Gordon is not the Pro Bowl player he was

738
00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:35,640
Speaker 1: in two thousand and fourteen. You know, so many things

739
00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:38,440
Speaker 1: have happened with off the field stuff and just his

740
00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:40,279
Speaker 1: play in the fact now he's a little bit older,

741
00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:42,560
Speaker 1: past the age of thirty. He's not you know, the

742
00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:46,080
Speaker 1: two thousand and thirteen player that got sixteen hundred and

743
00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:49,200
Speaker 1: thirty six yards. But he still can be good and

744
00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:51,879
Speaker 1: he still can be an option. And again you're you're

745
00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:54,920
Speaker 1: looking at the third best receiver on the team. You know,

746
00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:57,719
Speaker 1: how does he look compared to Jaron Brown, How does

747
00:37:57,760 --> 00:38:00,560
Speaker 1: he look compared to you know, David Moore? And if

748
00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:02,440
Speaker 1: he can be an upgrade as far as that, that

749
00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:05,719
Speaker 1: can be huge. And again, Russell Wilson, as good as

750
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:08,799
Speaker 1: he is, makes every wide receiver who works with him

751
00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:10,840
Speaker 1: that much better. So I think this could be a

752
00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:13,960
Speaker 1: good combination. And it's a good addition because now even

753
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:15,839
Speaker 1: though he's on a one year deal and all those

754
00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:19,360
Speaker 1: different things, I think he can help. You know, Josh Gordon,

755
00:38:19,680 --> 00:38:24,160
Speaker 1: Quandre Digs, ziggy Ansa. I don't really expect that that

756
00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:27,400
Speaker 1: much from them. Any anything to me that you get

757
00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:30,160
Speaker 1: from those guys is a bonus. But I expect something

758
00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:32,839
Speaker 1: from Ed Dixon. And you know, there was a chance

759
00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:36,319
Speaker 1: that he was going to be good to go last week.

760
00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:39,000
Speaker 1: They didn't end up activating him. But he is a

761
00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:41,480
Speaker 1: really good tight end, and I think you know, it'll

762
00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:43,920
Speaker 1: you know, Pete said something today though, like if he

763
00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:46,560
Speaker 1: makes it there or if he makes it up, and

764
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:48,600
Speaker 1: I felt like it was a going to be kind

765
00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:50,800
Speaker 1: of a game time decision on do they need a

766
00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:53,520
Speaker 1: tight end, do they need to activate you know, a

767
00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:56,920
Speaker 1: guard or an offensive lineman. But I don't know how

768
00:38:57,080 --> 00:39:00,400
Speaker 1: you guys all fill you two. John, I feel like

769
00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:04,560
Speaker 1: at Dixon's I think you can expect really good things

770
00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:07,000
Speaker 1: from him this year. I agree because again, he's good

771
00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:09,080
Speaker 1: enough to be the starter because he's a good blocker,

772
00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:12,120
Speaker 1: he's a good pass catcher, and he's just a good player.

773
00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:13,880
Speaker 1: And I think the only thing is, like in the

774
00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:16,600
Speaker 1: back of Pete Carroll's mind, in John Snyder's eye, is

775
00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:19,319
Speaker 1: that you're letting a good player go to get him

776
00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:21,520
Speaker 1: on the roster. And so it's like, okay, are you

777
00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:24,000
Speaker 1: ready to do that? Because you know here they let

778
00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:26,920
Speaker 1: the Gary Jennings go. And they like Gary Jennings a lot.

779
00:39:27,239 --> 00:39:29,360
Speaker 1: And you notice he got claimed by a couple of teams.

780
00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:33,560
Speaker 1: Giants claimed him, Miami Dolphins claimed him. Good player, And

781
00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:36,200
Speaker 1: so are you willing to do that? And I think

782
00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:39,480
Speaker 1: in this case they probably would because again you don't

783
00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:42,200
Speaker 1: know how. I Luke Wilson was limited in practice today

784
00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:44,520
Speaker 1: with a rib injury, and so it looks like he

785
00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:48,080
Speaker 1: could be available. Can you get by with Wilson and

786
00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:51,200
Speaker 1: Jacob Hollister? And certainly did it last week because Hollister

787
00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:55,160
Speaker 1: played so well, two touchdown passes, big interference in the

788
00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:57,759
Speaker 1: end zone. I mean, he did so well. But again,

789
00:39:58,040 --> 00:40:01,000
Speaker 1: Dixon is such a good players. I think, in fact

790
00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:05,359
Speaker 1: he's he's healthy. I think they'll activate him. Yeah, all right, professor, Well,

791
00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:07,480
Speaker 1: thank you very much. I will talk to you tomorrow

792
00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:10,040
Speaker 1: and uh we will. You guys will probably talk to

793
00:40:10,120 --> 00:40:12,520
Speaker 1: him on Monday in the pregame show. Yes we will

794
00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:14,640
Speaker 1: hand the cars game show. Thank you, professor, Thank you.

795
00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:17,839
Speaker 1: All right, there he goes John Clayton. Coming up next,

796
00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:19,920
Speaker 1: we're going to dive into the Seahawk defense. We get

797
00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:23,640
Speaker 1: to two head coaches that were wait, were you a

798
00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:25,719
Speaker 1: head coach. Now, Paul, you were an assistant coach, it

799
00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:29,120
Speaker 1: felt like a head coach though. Yeah, I got paid yeah,

800
00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:32,440
Speaker 1: and then yeah, of course assistant coach for the Seattle Seahawks,

801
00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:35,279
Speaker 1: Michael Bumpas, head coach. Don't be complaining about your pay.

802
00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:39,200
Speaker 1: We got the same I did when I was an

803
00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:44,800
Speaker 1: assistant with Oh yeah, Munroe High School head coach Michael Bumpas,

804
00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:46,879
Speaker 1: and I try to be a coach. We're gonna see

805
00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:49,080
Speaker 1: if we can fix the problems that they're having on

806
00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:52,959
Speaker 1: the defense. That's next on Hawks Live. Hawks Sucks Live

813
00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:18,360
Speaker 1: you don't know who TCU plays, but you knew that

814
00:41:18,520 --> 00:41:21,840
Speaker 1: we probably wouldn't have a show. You know that that

815
00:41:22,040 --> 00:41:30,040
Speaker 1: was That was not the first mistake I've made, the

816
00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:34,040
Speaker 1: first time you've ever flowed. Thank you, Thank you. All right, Well,

817
00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:36,640
Speaker 1: how about if you're that smart, Paul, bring you fix

818
00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:39,120
Speaker 1: this defense. And it's not like, look, you know, I

819
00:41:39,239 --> 00:41:43,000
Speaker 1: keep going during the the the week on my radio show.

820
00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:44,839
Speaker 1: I'm like, I have to stop. Go. We're seven and two.

821
00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:47,600
Speaker 1: You know, we're seven to two, and you got to me,

822
00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:51,200
Speaker 1: I don't see personnel problems. I mean, we'll see. I

823
00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:53,759
Speaker 1: think maybe the jury's out on you know. I don't

824
00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:55,440
Speaker 1: think they have a bunch of They're not loaded with

825
00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:57,799
Speaker 1: pass rushers like the forty nine ers, But I think

826
00:41:57,840 --> 00:42:00,399
Speaker 1: they're good up front. I think they're linebackers are great.

827
00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:02,239
Speaker 1: I think they have a couple of players in their

828
00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:04,880
Speaker 1: defensive backfield that can be great. But I think that

829
00:42:05,040 --> 00:42:07,440
Speaker 1: maybe the jury's out on them. But really the jury's

830
00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:09,000
Speaker 1: out on the whole defense because of the number of

831
00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:12,080
Speaker 1: yards they give up. What would what would be your

832
00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:15,320
Speaker 1: guys fix? What is the if when you look at it,

833
00:42:15,440 --> 00:42:20,239
Speaker 1: what's the biggest priority? I guess I should ask who, um, Well,

834
00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:22,520
Speaker 1: I guess depends on do you want more sacks? Do

835
00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:26,000
Speaker 1: you want to get to third down? Quicker? Things like that?

836
00:42:27,120 --> 00:42:28,799
Speaker 1: If you said, okay, but you only get you only

837
00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:31,880
Speaker 1: got a couple of things, I would fix the the

838
00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:35,919
Speaker 1: past defense and I would give our our defensive line

839
00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:38,279
Speaker 1: more of an opportunity to get to the quarterback. There's

840
00:42:38,320 --> 00:42:40,439
Speaker 1: a lot of quick passes, and if you allow those

841
00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:44,000
Speaker 1: quick passes, there's nothing your defensive line can do. So

842
00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:47,160
Speaker 1: we got to contest more on first and second down.

843
00:42:47,239 --> 00:42:50,080
Speaker 1: That's not really our philosophy, um. And partly as I'm

844
00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:52,800
Speaker 1: seeing running more zone on first and second down, not

845
00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:55,279
Speaker 1: a lot of man. Yeah, and not just that, I

846
00:42:55,360 --> 00:42:57,680
Speaker 1: see us playing off you know. So we do a

847
00:42:57,719 --> 00:43:00,800
Speaker 1: lot of bail technique, and so our warners open to

848
00:43:00,920 --> 00:43:05,200
Speaker 1: the inside and so you can stem them very easily

849
00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:08,319
Speaker 1: and create slants and seam routes, and we don't give

850
00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:11,080
Speaker 1: a lot of underneath help to them. You know, the

851
00:43:11,120 --> 00:43:13,840
Speaker 1: old days, we would we would crowd the inside guys

852
00:43:13,920 --> 00:43:16,200
Speaker 1: and we'd say, okay, corners, you're on your own. You

853
00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:19,279
Speaker 1: got to make some plays. Well that technique right now,

854
00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:22,440
Speaker 1: and with the ball not coming out really quick, you know,

855
00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:24,840
Speaker 1: the place can can develop a little bit. I'd like

856
00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:27,399
Speaker 1: to see us play a little bit more contested Cover two.

857
00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:29,320
Speaker 1: I'd like to play every once in a while some

858
00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:31,520
Speaker 1: two man. You know, you got to pick your spots

859
00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:33,680
Speaker 1: because you play two man and you got a running quarterback,

860
00:43:33,719 --> 00:43:35,719
Speaker 1: which they haven't wanted to do, you know, obviously with

861
00:43:35,800 --> 00:43:38,720
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson and two man is you've got everybody manned

862
00:43:38,760 --> 00:43:41,600
Speaker 1: up underneath and two safeties over the top and help

863
00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:44,600
Speaker 1: the two. Yeah, I've always when I was playing, when

864
00:43:44,640 --> 00:43:46,920
Speaker 1: I was coaching high school football, I love two men

865
00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:48,839
Speaker 1: because you're taking a little bit of a chance man

866
00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:50,600
Speaker 1: and up. I mean, you're it's one on one, but

867
00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:53,719
Speaker 1: you've got safety help, you know. And Cover one is

868
00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:56,080
Speaker 1: the classic man to man. You only got one safety

869
00:43:56,120 --> 00:43:59,239
Speaker 1: back two man, you got two safeties back. So yeah,

870
00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:03,000
Speaker 1: I kind of like that defense. It's scary because it's

871
00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:04,600
Speaker 1: hard to stop the run. If you've got a running

872
00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:07,960
Speaker 1: quarterback and he breaks the quarter or the pocket, you

873
00:44:08,080 --> 00:44:10,640
Speaker 1: got your whole defense with their back to the football,

874
00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:13,879
Speaker 1: and you know, Lamar Jackson and guys who can run.

875
00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:17,479
Speaker 1: That's a that's a challenge. Russell did that against Cleveland David.

876
00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:20,239
Speaker 1: But if you said, if there's one defense, I just

877
00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:23,439
Speaker 1: don't see that much anymore. It's it's our old Cover

878
00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:27,080
Speaker 1: eleven and where I would bring the backside safety down

879
00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:29,680
Speaker 1: away from the two or three wide receiver set. That way,

880
00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:32,440
Speaker 1: I'm helping with the slant route on the week side,

881
00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:35,279
Speaker 1: and I'm helping with the crossing routes along the way.

882
00:44:35,320 --> 00:44:36,800
Speaker 1: So you got a guy who's kind of playing in

883
00:44:36,840 --> 00:44:39,560
Speaker 1: a zone. Everybody else is playing tight man to man,

884
00:44:39,640 --> 00:44:42,560
Speaker 1: you still got free safety help along the way. I

885
00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:45,439
Speaker 1: used to like it where I ran a double. Both

886
00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:47,840
Speaker 1: safeties would come down, particularly in the red zone, and

887
00:44:47,960 --> 00:44:50,480
Speaker 1: you've got them zoned up between between the numbers and

888
00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:54,480
Speaker 1: the hash, and so it buys time for your coverage

889
00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:57,080
Speaker 1: and it buys time for your defensive line to get

890
00:44:57,120 --> 00:45:00,920
Speaker 1: to the quarterback. We play very vanilla. It's very van Now.

891
00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:02,799
Speaker 1: Look we're seven and two, so it's hard to say

892
00:45:03,480 --> 00:45:07,000
Speaker 1: it's I get the bend in the frustration and we're

893
00:45:07,080 --> 00:45:10,120
Speaker 1: giving up yards. But we're seven and two, and I

894
00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:12,200
Speaker 1: think we are going to make some change. I think

895
00:45:12,680 --> 00:45:15,479
Speaker 1: we're playing some teams now. I don't know if Peache

896
00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:19,360
Speaker 1: hold anything back, but they're gonna make adjustments, and I

897
00:45:19,400 --> 00:45:21,640
Speaker 1: think the bye week coming up, you'll see a few

898
00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:24,000
Speaker 1: more adjustments to the scheme. Yeah, if I were to

899
00:45:24,040 --> 00:45:27,200
Speaker 1: do anything, I would confuse the quarterback in the pre

900
00:45:27,400 --> 00:45:30,560
Speaker 1: snap right now, as a quarterback, you look at the defense.

901
00:45:30,800 --> 00:45:32,959
Speaker 1: What you see is what you're gonna get. There's nothing

902
00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:35,640
Speaker 1: going on that's gonna make him drop back and change

903
00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:38,640
Speaker 1: his perception of the coverage. You can play your bill,

904
00:45:38,880 --> 00:45:41,799
Speaker 1: play your bills, start deep, then press then bill you can.

905
00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:43,640
Speaker 1: You can press them for a minute, then get out

906
00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:45,120
Speaker 1: of there. You know you can still get the guys

907
00:45:45,160 --> 00:45:46,840
Speaker 1: to the spot you want to get them to. But

908
00:45:47,080 --> 00:45:50,359
Speaker 1: make the quarterback work pre snap, and that's that's all

909
00:45:50,440 --> 00:45:52,440
Speaker 1: I want to see. I get their philosophy. I get

910
00:45:52,480 --> 00:45:55,000
Speaker 1: they want to keep everything in front, but you're making

911
00:45:55,160 --> 00:45:57,600
Speaker 1: life too easy on a quarterback. With the defense we're

912
00:45:57,640 --> 00:45:59,839
Speaker 1: playing right now, I can look at the left side

913
00:45:59,840 --> 00:46:01,719
Speaker 1: and say, all right, I got this hitch whenever I

914
00:46:01,800 --> 00:46:03,520
Speaker 1: want it. All right, I got this slant whenever I

915
00:46:03,640 --> 00:46:06,799
Speaker 1: want it. I want them to walk him up, press him.

916
00:46:07,080 --> 00:46:09,279
Speaker 1: The quarterback looks at the defense presnap. I don't know

917
00:46:09,320 --> 00:46:11,520
Speaker 1: if I want that. He gets into what's dropback. I

918
00:46:11,640 --> 00:46:13,520
Speaker 1: think I want that, but maybe I'm a little late

919
00:46:13,600 --> 00:46:16,000
Speaker 1: now because I'm second guests to myself. Just make the

920
00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:19,239
Speaker 1: QB work mentally pre snap and I think they'll be okay. Well,

921
00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:21,600
Speaker 1: I ask you bump. The other thing, we do play

922
00:46:21,600 --> 00:46:23,920
Speaker 1: a lot of base defense, and even when we do

923
00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:27,279
Speaker 1: match up with five defensive backs. We're getting a lot

924
00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:31,680
Speaker 1: of pre snap motions and they're looking to see. It's

925
00:46:31,680 --> 00:46:34,480
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, McDougall out wide on a tight

926
00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:37,759
Speaker 1: end or running back. In that case, it's man. Right

927
00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:40,040
Speaker 1: if he's inside, we know its own or would see

928
00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:43,040
Speaker 1: Michael Kendricks. We're lying up outside on a running back.

929
00:46:43,239 --> 00:46:45,360
Speaker 1: Oh we got man. Oh no, now he's inside. So

930
00:46:45,800 --> 00:46:49,520
Speaker 1: we're getting there. They are looking to see immediately what

931
00:46:49,719 --> 00:46:52,759
Speaker 1: are the Seahawks running? And I was, so you're you're

932
00:46:52,840 --> 00:46:55,800
Speaker 1: picking that up then, obviously. And with that, what I

933
00:46:55,840 --> 00:46:58,000
Speaker 1: would do is, Okay, if McDougall's a man on one side,

934
00:46:58,040 --> 00:47:00,960
Speaker 1: the guy motions over, leave him there, bump that guy over.

935
00:47:01,080 --> 00:47:04,400
Speaker 1: So now that's the other safeties responsibility, that's the nickels responsibilities.

936
00:47:04,480 --> 00:47:08,160
Speaker 1: So you gotta disguise some things. And I'm telling you

937
00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:10,640
Speaker 1: that's why I hope I'm right. That's why I think

938
00:47:10,719 --> 00:47:13,640
Speaker 1: this week we'll see some things that we haven't seen

939
00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:15,880
Speaker 1: on film yet. Yeah. For me, I mean, you always

940
00:47:15,920 --> 00:47:17,759
Speaker 1: look at the position that you played, and I look

941
00:47:17,760 --> 00:47:20,239
Speaker 1: at the linebackers who are really good, and I don't

942
00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:22,840
Speaker 1: think it's a problem leaving base defense in but the

943
00:47:22,960 --> 00:47:26,239
Speaker 1: way they play their zone. It can't be that you're

944
00:47:26,280 --> 00:47:28,879
Speaker 1: a spot dropper. It can't be that you drop back

945
00:47:29,080 --> 00:47:31,560
Speaker 1: and you cover an area of grass. You have to

946
00:47:32,080 --> 00:47:35,399
Speaker 1: crowd receivers and you need to kind of predict where

947
00:47:35,400 --> 00:47:37,560
Speaker 1: they're going. Pattern progress. We used to call it, you know.

948
00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:39,960
Speaker 1: And so there was a couple of examples where the

949
00:47:40,120 --> 00:47:43,120
Speaker 1: very first play of the game, you know, the linebacker

950
00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:45,319
Speaker 1: is supposed to first of all a bit way too

951
00:47:45,400 --> 00:47:47,960
Speaker 1: hard on play action. And then if you do buy

952
00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:50,000
Speaker 1: it on play action, you have to turn your butt

953
00:47:50,080 --> 00:47:52,759
Speaker 1: and run back there and get in your zone because

954
00:47:52,800 --> 00:47:55,080
Speaker 1: you gotta be twelve fifteen yards deep, and then you

955
00:47:55,160 --> 00:47:57,600
Speaker 1: got to look up receivers. You can't just turn around

956
00:47:57,600 --> 00:47:59,919
Speaker 1: and look at the quarterback. So that happened a number

957
00:47:59,920 --> 00:48:03,000
Speaker 1: of times, and I think there we've seen that there's

958
00:48:03,080 --> 00:48:06,799
Speaker 1: lots of catches in between the linebackers and the next

959
00:48:06,880 --> 00:48:10,080
Speaker 1: level in that sort of twelve to fifteen yard You know,

960
00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:12,719
Speaker 1: they've got to do a better job. I think, uh there,

961
00:48:12,840 --> 00:48:15,440
Speaker 1: But I mean they'll get it done. These are good linebackers.

962
00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:19,000
Speaker 1: I don't think the answer is just necessarily let's play

963
00:48:19,080 --> 00:48:21,680
Speaker 1: more nickel. I just think the way they're playing it,

964
00:48:22,040 --> 00:48:24,000
Speaker 1: they just need to be a little bit. You who

965
00:48:24,080 --> 00:48:26,759
Speaker 1: said contested was that you, Yeah, you gotta contest, yea.

966
00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:30,680
Speaker 1: And it doesn't have to be like a I'm up

967
00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:32,879
Speaker 1: on the guy's face, man to man, and I'm gonna

968
00:48:32,920 --> 00:48:35,160
Speaker 1: run with him everywhere. But you know, on some of

969
00:48:35,280 --> 00:48:37,879
Speaker 1: these routes, you know, even if it's a zone kind

970
00:48:37,880 --> 00:48:40,799
Speaker 1: of play, like a matchup zone thing, it's it's it's

971
00:48:40,960 --> 00:48:45,279
Speaker 1: confidence because at some point zone becomes man. Right. If

972
00:48:45,320 --> 00:48:47,280
Speaker 1: I have deep third and this guy's running a streak,

973
00:48:47,360 --> 00:48:49,680
Speaker 1: this is now my guy. As a corner. Yeah, you know.

974
00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:51,920
Speaker 1: If if I'm covering the flat as an LB, this

975
00:48:52,040 --> 00:48:54,399
Speaker 1: running back is running to a flat, this is now

976
00:48:54,600 --> 00:48:57,360
Speaker 1: my guy. So I think it comes down to trust

977
00:48:57,520 --> 00:48:59,600
Speaker 1: and just knowing that if I do what I'm supposed

978
00:48:59,640 --> 00:49:01,279
Speaker 1: to do, the guys behind me and in front of

979
00:49:01,280 --> 00:49:02,800
Speaker 1: me are gonna do with their spoon. Now, you go

980
00:49:02,920 --> 00:49:05,840
Speaker 1: watch San Francisco name because they will spot drop and

981
00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:08,560
Speaker 1: you can spot drop and you can have a six

982
00:49:08,680 --> 00:49:12,520
Speaker 1: or eight yard drop and play the shallow crossing routes

983
00:49:12,560 --> 00:49:15,759
Speaker 1: and the checkdowns because that ball is coming out so

984
00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:20,160
Speaker 1: fast with four guys rushing, We're trying that, but the

985
00:49:20,239 --> 00:49:23,040
Speaker 1: ball's not coming out so now what happens. We saw

986
00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:25,879
Speaker 1: it last week Mike Evans, he's working fifteen yards behind

987
00:49:25,880 --> 00:49:29,160
Speaker 1: the linebackers. Well, they're sitting at sixty eight yards kind

988
00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:31,120
Speaker 1: of what the defense is telling them to do. No,

989
00:49:31,239 --> 00:49:33,480
Speaker 1: I can't run that defense anymore if I can't if

990
00:49:33,520 --> 00:49:35,960
Speaker 1: that ball doesn't come out quickly. So that's the thing

991
00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:38,800
Speaker 1: where I think they have to make the adjustment and say, Okay,

992
00:49:38,920 --> 00:49:40,600
Speaker 1: I get it. The ball's not coming, so we got

993
00:49:40,680 --> 00:49:41,960
Speaker 1: to make a little jet. So we're gonna have to

994
00:49:42,080 --> 00:49:45,120
Speaker 1: drop deeper, or in this case, we're gonna play tighter,

995
00:49:45,280 --> 00:49:48,000
Speaker 1: but we're gonna play with cover two where I've got,

996
00:49:48,160 --> 00:49:50,399
Speaker 1: you know, two guys over the top help in along

997
00:49:50,440 --> 00:49:52,399
Speaker 1: the way. So those are the subtle things I think,

998
00:49:52,719 --> 00:49:55,359
Speaker 1: and I think they'll do it. They're smart coaches. These

999
00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:57,960
Speaker 1: guys are not dumb. Yeah, they did not suddenly get dumb.

1000
00:49:58,080 --> 00:50:00,560
Speaker 1: They're not listening to us right now. It's saying, oh,

1001
00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:05,640
Speaker 1: that's that's a good No. I always you know, I

1002
00:50:05,760 --> 00:50:07,719
Speaker 1: hate to do that because you know, but when you

1003
00:50:07,840 --> 00:50:10,200
Speaker 1: hear people say, well they should do this, I'm like, yeah,

1004
00:50:10,280 --> 00:50:12,480
Speaker 1: I think they already thought of that. They're working at

1005
00:50:12,960 --> 00:50:15,840
Speaker 1: twenty hours a day film, right now, hey, but this

1006
00:50:15,960 --> 00:50:17,440
Speaker 1: is part of being a fan, right, you know, you

1007
00:50:17,520 --> 00:50:19,800
Speaker 1: get to be a coach, you uh, you know, like

1008
00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:22,319
Speaker 1: you get to complain about your team even when they're

1009
00:50:22,360 --> 00:50:25,840
Speaker 1: seven and two. Yeah, sometimes, which is ridiculous but horrible

1010
00:50:25,960 --> 00:50:29,160
Speaker 1: spoil coming up next year, Sorry, folks, You're gonna get

1011
00:50:29,239 --> 00:50:32,520
Speaker 1: more coaching. We're gonna go inside the film room. We'll

1012
00:50:32,600 --> 00:50:34,640
Speaker 1: look at the three of the biggest plays from the

1013
00:50:34,719 --> 00:50:38,359
Speaker 1: Seahawks win over the Buccaneers. That's next here on Hawks Live.

1020
00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:05,680
Speaker 1: welcome back to Hawks Live, Paul Moyer, Michael Bumpus, and

1021
00:51:05,920 --> 00:51:07,880
Speaker 1: what we're gonna do now is go through inside the

1022
00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:10,840
Speaker 1: film room, go through some of the biggest plays that

1023
00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:13,760
Speaker 1: the Seahawks made. And we've been talking lots about defense

1024
00:51:13,880 --> 00:51:16,439
Speaker 1: and sacks and I didn't get to this, but I'll

1025
00:51:16,480 --> 00:51:18,680
Speaker 1: go through it real quick. The sacks the fifteen sacks

1026
00:51:18,719 --> 00:51:22,200
Speaker 1: the Seahawks have had this year has resulted in four punts,

1027
00:51:22,520 --> 00:51:26,160
Speaker 1: four fumbles, three field goals, two missfield goals, and one

1028
00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:28,960
Speaker 1: end of the game that was ziggyanza at the very end.

1029
00:51:29,040 --> 00:51:33,120
Speaker 1: So sacks are important. And on this play third and

1030
00:51:33,200 --> 00:51:36,359
Speaker 1: five at the Seattle forty, they came up with one.

1031
00:51:36,480 --> 00:51:39,960
Speaker 1: Michael Kendricks came up big. The fullback is in the block,

1032
00:51:40,040 --> 00:51:42,560
Speaker 1: a trip set to the right side. Here comes the blitz.

1033
00:51:42,640 --> 00:51:45,319
Speaker 1: Winston fall is tipped up in the air. It's picked

1034
00:51:45,400 --> 00:51:47,960
Speaker 1: up coming the other way for Tim Green. Hang on

1035
00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:50,960
Speaker 1: to the football, young man. He goes down the fifteen.

1036
00:51:52,080 --> 00:51:57,120
Speaker 1: Mike Evans chases him down, but Sayhawks sports the football.

1037
00:51:57,160 --> 00:52:00,760
Speaker 1: Winston coughs it up. 's seen. Green pits up takes

1038
00:52:00,800 --> 00:52:04,279
Speaker 1: it all the way to the Tampa Bay fifteen. Good

1039
00:52:04,360 --> 00:52:08,080
Speaker 1: Seahawks are in business again. I love this rush by

1040
00:52:08,120 --> 00:52:11,000
Speaker 1: Michael Kendricks. I mean, he's very low to the ground,

1041
00:52:11,360 --> 00:52:14,239
Speaker 1: but he just gets an inside hand right in the

1042
00:52:14,400 --> 00:52:17,480
Speaker 1: chest of that offensive tackle. And I think the reason

1043
00:52:17,520 --> 00:52:19,440
Speaker 1: why he was able to move him so well, it

1044
00:52:19,520 --> 00:52:22,080
Speaker 1: made it look easy, but he got him light on

1045
00:52:22,120 --> 00:52:24,520
Speaker 1: his feet because he thought that he was gonna edge

1046
00:52:24,600 --> 00:52:26,480
Speaker 1: rush him. And then all of a sudden, just bull

1047
00:52:26,560 --> 00:52:29,680
Speaker 1: rushed him right back into Jameis Winston. Ball comes out

1048
00:52:29,800 --> 00:52:32,560
Speaker 1: and then Rashime Green takes off. Yeah. What I like

1049
00:52:32,640 --> 00:52:35,200
Speaker 1: about this play is Clowney Conney's lined up on the

1050
00:52:35,320 --> 00:52:39,600
Speaker 1: second level, so they're they're playing a vision game with him.

1051
00:52:39,680 --> 00:52:42,080
Speaker 1: You see clowning on on on the second level. You

1052
00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:45,400
Speaker 1: know that he's going after the full ball. Bobby is

1053
00:52:45,480 --> 00:52:47,800
Speaker 1: lined up on the left side, he's rushing. Then Kendricks

1054
00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:50,400
Speaker 1: he's outside of the box. And once you get outside

1055
00:52:50,440 --> 00:52:53,080
Speaker 1: of the box, those lineman stopped counting for you. They're like, Okay,

1056
00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:56,640
Speaker 1: he's no longer my responsibility. That's the quarterbacks responsibility. So

1057
00:52:56,880 --> 00:52:59,440
Speaker 1: I see a stunt, and I see a look at

1058
00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:03,320
Speaker 1: this offense probably wasn't ready to defend. They run the

1059
00:53:03,480 --> 00:53:06,800
Speaker 1: same blitz, uh, the way I was talking about earlier,

1060
00:53:06,840 --> 00:53:10,800
Speaker 1: but with different people in different positions. So Clowney is

1061
00:53:10,840 --> 00:53:15,080
Speaker 1: in the position that Kendricks was earlier, and and clown

1062
00:53:15,320 --> 00:53:17,759
Speaker 1: and Kendricks is where Clowney was in another one. But

1063
00:53:17,800 --> 00:53:20,719
Speaker 1: it's the same type of blitz. And here's the weird

1064
00:53:20,840 --> 00:53:24,239
Speaker 1: thing though, again the two guys end up in the

1065
00:53:24,360 --> 00:53:27,680
Speaker 1: same gap and I'm like, what are they trying to accomplish?

1066
00:53:27,760 --> 00:53:31,399
Speaker 1: And um, but Kendricks, my goodness, I mean he bullrushes

1067
00:53:32,160 --> 00:53:35,080
Speaker 1: their left tackle. I mean he's quick and he's strong

1068
00:53:35,200 --> 00:53:37,600
Speaker 1: for a little guy. I was gonna say one thing

1069
00:53:37,600 --> 00:53:40,200
Speaker 1: because there was a huge play, big turnover in that game,

1070
00:53:40,239 --> 00:53:43,360
Speaker 1: and David from point A to point B, what's the

1071
00:53:43,440 --> 00:53:46,440
Speaker 1: quickest way to get there? Straight line? Straight line? And

1072
00:53:46,560 --> 00:53:50,080
Speaker 1: well he gets the ball about three yards inside the

1073
00:53:50,200 --> 00:53:52,800
Speaker 1: numbers and he starts working his way through the corner,

1074
00:53:53,680 --> 00:53:56,160
Speaker 1: I know, and then Mike Evans is coming down to

1075
00:53:56,239 --> 00:53:59,200
Speaker 1: remember and wide receivers are on the outside, let them

1076
00:53:59,320 --> 00:54:01,879
Speaker 1: come get you. You in the middle, lineman aren't gonna

1077
00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:04,439
Speaker 1: find you. You probably remember this, Paul Um. I didn't

1078
00:54:04,480 --> 00:54:06,719
Speaker 1: have my hands on the ball very many times in

1079
00:54:06,760 --> 00:54:12,040
Speaker 1: the NFL. Worst runbacks ever, the one I had I

1080
00:54:12,120 --> 00:54:14,840
Speaker 1: picked off Dan Marino down in Miami, and it was

1081
00:54:14,920 --> 00:54:17,799
Speaker 1: just awful. I don't know what I was thinking about,

1082
00:54:17,800 --> 00:54:20,239
Speaker 1: what I was doing. Yeah, the football gout and all

1083
00:54:20,239 --> 00:54:23,520
Speaker 1: of a sudden, just like that was a tight end

1084
00:54:23,560 --> 00:54:25,600
Speaker 1: in high school. You bet you are a great tight

1085
00:54:25,719 --> 00:54:27,840
Speaker 1: end too. Yeah. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know

1086
00:54:27,880 --> 00:54:29,600
Speaker 1: what to tell you. Dave all right, coming up next

1087
00:54:29,600 --> 00:54:32,200
Speaker 1: to the next play. Here we got DK Metcalf, who

1088
00:54:32,719 --> 00:54:35,520
Speaker 1: is just so not a rookie, but he's good for

1089
00:54:35,600 --> 00:54:38,600
Speaker 1: a fifty three yard touchdown. It's a play back by

1090
00:54:38,680 --> 00:54:45,759
Speaker 1: Russell who stops, looks, throws backside Metcalf, catcher Gavasi fun

1091
00:54:46,480 --> 00:54:53,080
Speaker 1: then touchdowns Shawks and if Tampa Bay can do it,

1092
00:54:53,400 --> 00:54:57,120
Speaker 1: the Seahawks can do it one better. Come fifty three

1093
00:54:57,360 --> 00:55:02,120
Speaker 1: Russell with a beautiful right bull shot j Metcalf who

1094
00:55:02,320 --> 00:55:06,320
Speaker 1: ran away from the defense. Jamal Dean was chasing. He

1095
00:55:06,600 --> 00:55:09,799
Speaker 1: was not gonna catch the rookie, and the Seahawks back

1096
00:55:09,840 --> 00:55:13,840
Speaker 1: out on top thirty three twenty seven. Michael, You'll probably

1097
00:55:13,840 --> 00:55:16,120
Speaker 1: be able to describe this better than anybody, but I

1098
00:55:16,239 --> 00:55:20,839
Speaker 1: just I loved how hard Dk Metcalf leaned on Dean.

1099
00:55:20,960 --> 00:55:23,000
Speaker 1: He leaned on him hard, and then all of a

1100
00:55:23,040 --> 00:55:25,439
Speaker 1: sudden just took off away from him like a forty

1101
00:55:25,480 --> 00:55:28,880
Speaker 1: five degree angle headed to the corner. Kind of a

1102
00:55:28,960 --> 00:55:31,920
Speaker 1: corner route there, but that was a great way of

1103
00:55:31,960 --> 00:55:34,200
Speaker 1: getting separation with that big body of hit. Yeah, it's

1104
00:55:34,239 --> 00:55:38,240
Speaker 1: a golf of your point. Space is bad and route running.

1105
00:55:38,440 --> 00:55:40,520
Speaker 1: When I break at the top of my route or

1106
00:55:40,560 --> 00:55:42,800
Speaker 1: whatever I'm doing, I want you as close to me

1107
00:55:42,920 --> 00:55:45,400
Speaker 1: as possible, so you can feel what I'm doing and

1108
00:55:45,520 --> 00:55:47,920
Speaker 1: not see what I'm doing. If if that guy's three

1109
00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:50,040
Speaker 1: yards off at DK and he sees him make that

1110
00:55:50,239 --> 00:55:52,520
Speaker 1: jab step, okay, I see it. I can react to you.

1111
00:55:52,760 --> 00:55:55,239
Speaker 1: So now if he's half yard off of me and

1112
00:55:55,320 --> 00:55:57,800
Speaker 1: he feels me make that jab step, he has to

1113
00:55:57,880 --> 00:56:00,080
Speaker 1: react to what I'm doing, and that's a better and

1114
00:56:00,200 --> 00:56:02,400
Speaker 1: move right there. He got on his toes and smacked him.

1115
00:56:02,440 --> 00:56:05,279
Speaker 1: But the thing that impresses me the most about this

1116
00:56:05,440 --> 00:56:09,200
Speaker 1: play design is that there's a receiver outside of Tyler Lockett.

1117
00:56:09,200 --> 00:56:12,040
Speaker 1: I believe it is David Moore. He comes down like

1118
00:56:12,120 --> 00:56:15,200
Speaker 1: he's gonna block or get like a jet sweep or whatnot.

1119
00:56:15,640 --> 00:56:18,759
Speaker 1: That makes the safety react and go downhill. We all

1120
00:56:18,840 --> 00:56:21,160
Speaker 1: know that Tyler Lockett loves to run crossing routes. What

1121
00:56:21,239 --> 00:56:23,200
Speaker 1: do you do with crossing routes? You man him up

1122
00:56:23,200 --> 00:56:25,480
Speaker 1: and you send another guy to collision him, and it

1123
00:56:25,719 --> 00:56:29,600
Speaker 1: all works together. So uh, d mo goes in the backfield,

1124
00:56:29,800 --> 00:56:32,399
Speaker 1: grabs a defender, and then Tyler Locket runs his cross

1125
00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:34,719
Speaker 1: grabs two defenders, and now you got a one on

1126
00:56:34,800 --> 00:56:37,239
Speaker 1: one with DK and number thirty five. I don't know

1127
00:56:37,320 --> 00:56:39,480
Speaker 1: his name. God bless him. He got a tough rookie,

1128
00:56:39,880 --> 00:56:44,880
Speaker 1: ye ye rookie on rookie, and now and now DK

1129
00:56:45,200 --> 00:56:48,520
Speaker 1: is allowed to highlight his skill in his knowledge of

1130
00:56:48,560 --> 00:56:50,600
Speaker 1: the game to where he's patient. I know I got

1131
00:56:50,640 --> 00:56:52,560
Speaker 1: this one one match. I'm gonna get on his toes.

1132
00:56:52,680 --> 00:56:54,600
Speaker 1: I'm gonna jab and make him feel me and create

1133
00:56:54,960 --> 00:56:57,200
Speaker 1: one or two yards of separation. Now you just get

1134
00:56:57,239 --> 00:56:58,719
Speaker 1: the young man in the ball. Let him gallop down

1135
00:57:00,160 --> 00:57:02,040
Speaker 1: three speed, Dave. This is how we we're gonna have

1136
00:57:02,040 --> 00:57:04,759
Speaker 1: to get San Francisco. We're gonna to run the ball

1137
00:57:04,800 --> 00:57:07,560
Speaker 1: hard and then we're gonna have to play accent just

1138
00:57:07,719 --> 00:57:10,239
Speaker 1: like this. This was impressive by Russell Wilson. And he's

1139
00:57:10,280 --> 00:57:14,080
Speaker 1: got a linebacker who sees it late and barreling down

1140
00:57:14,160 --> 00:57:16,680
Speaker 1: on him. And he was so calm and cool he

1141
00:57:16,840 --> 00:57:20,200
Speaker 1: let the play develop even though he knew there he

1142
00:57:20,360 --> 00:57:22,120
Speaker 1: had to throw the ball at some point and he's

1143
00:57:22,120 --> 00:57:24,960
Speaker 1: gonna get hit. But we kept eight guys in blocking.

1144
00:57:25,120 --> 00:57:27,640
Speaker 1: We brought, as you mentioned, a wide receiver into blocking

1145
00:57:27,720 --> 00:57:30,800
Speaker 1: in We kept Carson on the fake and Heat chipped

1146
00:57:30,840 --> 00:57:33,400
Speaker 1: to the end. So we had a wide receiver and

1147
00:57:33,560 --> 00:57:36,280
Speaker 1: a running back on both of their ends, kept all

1148
00:57:36,320 --> 00:57:39,760
Speaker 1: the linemen in you know, two man route and you

1149
00:57:39,800 --> 00:57:43,479
Speaker 1: know you've got touchdown and that that play, those type plays,

1150
00:57:43,520 --> 00:57:45,680
Speaker 1: how we're gonna beat San Francisco. Well, I'll tell you what.

1151
00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:48,920
Speaker 1: Russell did a good job, as Nasa Choby pointed out,

1152
00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:51,800
Speaker 1: of looking off the receiver. And he also did a

1153
00:57:51,840 --> 00:57:55,440
Speaker 1: pretty good job in the next play in overtime second goal.

1154
00:57:55,520 --> 00:57:58,200
Speaker 1: It's the game winner, Jacob Hollister with a ten yard

1155
00:57:58,240 --> 00:58:01,600
Speaker 1: pass from Russell Wilson. Russell looks one way, throws the other.

1156
00:58:02,320 --> 00:58:05,200
Speaker 1: Ross takes a shotgun snap, looks throws inside ballas caught

1157
00:58:06,920 --> 00:58:15,360
Speaker 1: Sawkin touts down say Hawks. Jacob Hollister his second score

1158
00:58:15,920 --> 00:58:21,320
Speaker 1: and the Seahawks win in dramatic fashion hit overtime here

1159
00:58:21,400 --> 00:58:26,120
Speaker 1: at Century League Field one a game the Seahawks never

1160
00:58:26,280 --> 00:58:30,760
Speaker 1: quit and Russell Wilson has his thirty first win in

1161
00:58:31,120 --> 00:58:35,480
Speaker 1: fourth staff, fourth quarter or overtime. As all the players

1162
00:58:35,760 --> 00:58:40,000
Speaker 1: head to the far side to congratulate Jacob Hollister on

1163
00:58:40,200 --> 00:58:44,240
Speaker 1: the game winning reception. I guess Russ didn't exactly look

1164
00:58:44,320 --> 00:58:45,840
Speaker 1: him off, but he did a good job of like

1165
00:58:46,640 --> 00:58:52,320
Speaker 1: looking one way. His arm slot was was very you know,

1166
00:58:52,560 --> 00:58:54,320
Speaker 1: much to the right where his head was going a

1167
00:58:54,360 --> 00:58:57,880
Speaker 1: little bit to the left. But Hollister not only did

1168
00:58:58,040 --> 00:59:00,440
Speaker 1: he had a couple of catches, two touch downs, and

1169
00:59:00,520 --> 00:59:03,320
Speaker 1: then he also drew a pass interference penalty, which he

1170
00:59:03,400 --> 00:59:05,640
Speaker 1: told us on Monday all about You know, he saw

1171
00:59:05,720 --> 00:59:09,080
Speaker 1: that it was a linebacker and linebacker could run. It

1172
00:59:09,200 --> 00:59:12,360
Speaker 1: was the guy that ran down Chris Carson, Devin White,

1173
00:59:12,440 --> 00:59:16,120
Speaker 1: I think it was his name, but yeah, he knew

1174
00:59:16,160 --> 00:59:17,800
Speaker 1: that the guy was going to panic a little bit,

1175
00:59:17,920 --> 00:59:20,000
Speaker 1: so he choked it down a little bit when the

1176
00:59:20,040 --> 00:59:21,840
Speaker 1: ball was in the air, was able to draw that.

1177
00:59:22,040 --> 00:59:24,320
Speaker 1: So really happy for this kid. You know, he's got

1178
00:59:24,360 --> 00:59:26,840
Speaker 1: a twin brother and he's actually on the practice squad

1179
00:59:26,920 --> 00:59:30,680
Speaker 1: at Tennessee for the Titans and just a football guy

1180
00:59:30,920 --> 00:59:34,000
Speaker 1: through and through and position. I'm sorry, No, he's a

1181
00:59:34,040 --> 00:59:37,000
Speaker 1: wide receiver actually, ok. Yeah, his brother's a wide receiver.

1182
00:59:37,120 --> 00:59:39,680
Speaker 1: He's a tight end, and really he's on the smaller

1183
00:59:39,760 --> 00:59:42,280
Speaker 1: end certainly of tight ends, but he runs great routes.

1184
00:59:42,400 --> 00:59:44,320
Speaker 1: You know, it's crazy about that play. I mean, you

1185
00:59:44,400 --> 00:59:47,280
Speaker 1: watch it from the sideline, you go, just a play.

1186
00:59:47,400 --> 00:59:50,440
Speaker 1: I mean they really for Russell to find the one

1187
00:59:50,520 --> 00:59:52,840
Speaker 1: guy that was open, maybe the wide receiver up top

1188
00:59:52,880 --> 00:59:55,640
Speaker 1: to the right. There was some space there but nothing else.

1189
00:59:56,040 --> 00:59:58,320
Speaker 1: And I'm watching a throw on the sideline. They go, no,

1190
00:59:58,560 --> 01:00:00,720
Speaker 1: no big deal, and they you watch it from the

1191
01:00:00,880 --> 01:00:03,240
Speaker 1: end zone and you watch how much he led him.

1192
01:00:03,320 --> 01:00:06,280
Speaker 1: I mean, he throws it early to give him enough

1193
01:00:06,360 --> 01:00:10,080
Speaker 1: time still to lead him to create that separation from

1194
01:00:10,120 --> 01:00:12,920
Speaker 1: the safety. And how shouldn't I go, Man, That's an

1195
01:00:13,120 --> 01:00:16,800
Speaker 1: unbelievable throw for something that looks so simple. From the sideline.

1196
01:00:17,200 --> 01:00:19,880
Speaker 1: Russell is off the charts and his decision making an

1197
01:00:19,920 --> 01:00:23,200
Speaker 1: accuracy right now. This play right here, this lets me

1198
01:00:23,360 --> 01:00:26,880
Speaker 1: know how much the game is slowed down for Russell.

1199
01:00:26,920 --> 01:00:29,720
Speaker 1: Obviously it slows down every year, but you look at

1200
01:00:29,760 --> 01:00:32,320
Speaker 1: this play. It lets me know that he knows exactly

1201
01:00:32,400 --> 01:00:34,960
Speaker 1: what he's looking at. He knows that Mike linebacker is

1202
01:00:35,000 --> 01:00:37,440
Speaker 1: a spy. He knows, he knows he has man here.

1203
01:00:37,480 --> 01:00:39,280
Speaker 1: He knows if I look this way, that safety is

1204
01:00:39,280 --> 01:00:41,520
Speaker 1: gonna go there. This running back's going to take care

1205
01:00:41,560 --> 01:00:44,640
Speaker 1: of the outside linebacker. Hollisters should be open. And it's

1206
01:00:44,640 --> 01:00:47,600
Speaker 1: just so much composure in his thought process and he

1207
01:00:47,720 --> 01:00:51,840
Speaker 1: breaks down a defense so fast it's amazing. And this

1208
01:00:51,920 --> 01:00:54,640
Speaker 1: is one of the most beautiful design players I've seen

1209
01:00:54,680 --> 01:00:57,160
Speaker 1: it's really simple. But unless you have a quarterback who

1210
01:00:57,280 --> 01:01:00,200

Speaker 1: it too late or too early and read someone else.

1213
01:01:05,280 --> 01:01:07,240
Speaker 1: And you're right. I mean, from the sideline, you go,

1214
01:01:07,320 --> 01:01:09,200
Speaker 1: it's not a big deal. From the end zone, you go,

1215
01:01:09,840 --> 01:01:11,840
Speaker 1: that's actually more complex than you think it is. And

1216

01:02:15,640 --> 01:02:17,200
Speaker 1: Now I'm on the West coast. How do you get

1239
01:02:17,280 --> 01:02:19,600
Speaker 1: up so early to watch soccer? Because now if you're

1243
01:02:28,480 --> 01:02:31,280
Speaker 1: five fifteen coming on for five fifteen. What's what's the

1244
01:02:31,360 --> 01:02:32,840
Speaker 1: key to getting out of bed that early? Because I'm

1245
01:02:32,840 --> 01:02:34,960
Speaker 1: doing the morning show now with Danny O'Neill. I show

1246
01:02:35,080 --> 01:02:37,120
Speaker 1: starts at seven. I'm like trying to get up at

1247
01:02:37,160 --> 01:02:39,080
Speaker 1: four thirty. But I keep pressing this the keys. If

1248
01:02:39,120 --> 01:02:41,320
Speaker 1: you love your job, you'll get up, and if you don't,

1249
01:02:41,560 --> 01:02:44,640
Speaker 1: I love sleeping. I love my job, man, so I

1250
01:02:44,680 --> 01:02:47,240
Speaker 1: gotta wake up. All right, let's get this thing started.

1251
01:02:47,360 --> 01:02:49,240
Speaker 1: What's what's the biggest trick to keep in the body?

1252
01:02:49,280 --> 01:02:53,600
Speaker 1: Hanging in there cold cold to twice a week? How long?

1253
01:02:54,120 --> 01:02:57,280
Speaker 1: Ten minutes? Ten minutes? Minutes in the cold tub? And

1254
01:02:57,720 --> 01:03:00,400
Speaker 1: it does match for me? So what what do you

1255
01:03:00,480 --> 01:03:03,200
Speaker 1: do afterwards? Because I imagine you get out your shivery?

1256
01:03:03,280 --> 01:03:04,880
Speaker 1: Oh you cold afterward? You just take a shower when

1257
01:03:04,880 --> 01:03:07,560
Speaker 1: you get done, a shower. Okay, okay, but the cold,

1258
01:03:07,600 --> 01:03:10,880
Speaker 1: cold top, we'll see. I got I gotta figure that out. So,

1259
01:03:11,120 --> 01:03:13,160
Speaker 1: like K Jr. Plays in the NFL, I play a

1260
01:03:13,160 --> 01:03:15,640
Speaker 1: little flag football And right now I'm trying to I'm trying.

1261
01:03:15,680 --> 01:03:18,479
Speaker 1: My knees are not feeling very good. Played a little

1262
01:03:18,520 --> 01:03:23,560
Speaker 1: game yesterday. Um okay, so you are is fee for

1263
01:03:23,600 --> 01:03:26,240
Speaker 1: your favorite kind of sports game? It used to be

1264
01:03:26,360 --> 01:03:27,880
Speaker 1: I used to play it all the time in college

1265
01:03:27,920 --> 01:03:31,600
Speaker 1: with my roommates. But um, pretty, I'm mad and Madden okay,

1266
01:03:31,680 --> 01:03:34,440
Speaker 1: And I've been playing Man since the early early nineties.

1267
01:03:34,760 --> 01:03:37,080
Speaker 1: Is it weird being in the game now? No? I

1268
01:03:37,200 --> 01:03:39,600
Speaker 1: love it? You love it? Do you control yourself when

1269
01:03:39,680 --> 01:03:41,920
Speaker 1: you play? No? I'm using I used to control the

1270
01:03:41,960 --> 01:03:44,720
Speaker 1: free safety. Okay, control the free safety most of the time.

1271
01:03:44,840 --> 01:03:47,200
Speaker 1: Oh okay, gotcha. So I'm guessing during the days of

1272
01:03:47,200 --> 01:03:49,080
Speaker 1: EARLD times you had a lot of fun. Yeah, but

1273
01:03:49,200 --> 01:03:54,520
Speaker 1: that's awesome. I typically go for one of the defensive linemens,

1274
01:03:54,560 --> 01:03:55,960
Speaker 1: so if I were playing as you guys, i'd be

1275
01:03:56,000 --> 01:03:59,160
Speaker 1: playing a lot ash deb in Clowne really yes, Oh definitely.

1276
01:03:59,400 --> 01:04:01,320
Speaker 1: So I was covering Clowning with the Houston Texans for

1277
01:04:01,400 --> 01:04:04,360
Speaker 1: a while and it was he was such a such

1278
01:04:04,400 --> 01:04:06,960
Speaker 1: a force there, such a force here too. Uh. I

1279
01:04:06,960 --> 01:04:08,440
Speaker 1: don't know I'm gonna talking to I'll play at the

1280
01:04:08,440 --> 01:04:10,200
Speaker 1: same It's really difficult, isn't it. I don't know what

1281
01:04:10,280 --> 01:04:15,320
Speaker 1: I'm doing either. Um? So okay, So Madden, what was

1282
01:04:15,440 --> 01:04:18,720
Speaker 1: your favorite version of now two and eleven? Madden eleven

1283
01:04:18,840 --> 01:04:21,320
Speaker 1: twenty eleven? Did you did you keep the game? No?

1284
01:04:21,920 --> 01:04:23,520
Speaker 1: You gotta keep, you gotta, you gotta, you gotta. What

1285
01:04:23,640 --> 01:04:27,240
Speaker 1: were you originally rated? Probably in the low sanities something

1286
01:04:27,320 --> 01:04:30,440
Speaker 1: like this. I'm just spendful. They always that's awful. But

1287
01:04:32,040 --> 01:04:33,480
Speaker 1: when I remember the first time I was on, it

1288
01:04:33,560 --> 01:04:39,280
Speaker 1: was pretty cool. See you can you can talk and

1289
01:04:39,400 --> 01:04:41,960
Speaker 1: play very easily. Look at you with the first goal

1290
01:04:42,000 --> 01:04:43,960
Speaker 1: of the game. Who's the toughest running back that you've

1291
01:04:44,120 --> 01:04:48,880
Speaker 1: gone up against in your career? The toughest is, uh

1292
01:04:48,960 --> 01:04:50,800
Speaker 1: the running back from the Atlanta Falcon is the big

1293
01:04:50,880 --> 01:04:57,120
Speaker 1: guy with a big thighs, Michael Turner, Michael Turner monster.

1294
01:04:57,560 --> 01:04:59,400
Speaker 1: What was most difficult about? Just like trying to bring

1295
01:04:59,440 --> 01:05:01,480
Speaker 1: him down? I cannot bring them down and save my life,

1296
01:05:02,200 --> 01:05:04,360
Speaker 1: Like bounced off of him. I try to wrap his

1297
01:05:04,480 --> 01:05:06,560
Speaker 1: legs up. I trying to hit him high to do

1298
01:05:06,760 --> 01:05:10,720
Speaker 1: to do it is pretty good? Uh so power running

1299
01:05:10,720 --> 01:05:13,480
Speaker 1: back to the other guys that yeah, because yeah, I'll

1300
01:05:13,480 --> 01:05:16,280
Speaker 1: do go through with the small guys. But um, that

1301
01:05:16,680 --> 01:05:19,040
Speaker 1: he gave us some trouble. The forty nine ers have

1302
01:05:19,280 --> 01:05:22,000
Speaker 1: like a lot of running backs that There's Raida, There's

1303
01:05:22,040 --> 01:05:27,200
Speaker 1: Tevin Coleman, there's got Kyle u. Shap's coming back to fullback.

1304
01:05:27,320 --> 01:05:29,680
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, so what what when you're going up against

1305
01:05:29,680 --> 01:05:31,480
Speaker 1: a good fullback like that? What's the key to making

1306
01:05:31,520 --> 01:05:34,120
Speaker 1: sure that guy is not getting blocking you? Yeah? Yeah,

1307
01:05:34,200 --> 01:05:36,000
Speaker 1: which just with full back, you just gotta be physical

1308
01:05:36,040 --> 01:05:38,440
Speaker 1: with him. And um, he's a guy that they use

1309
01:05:38,520 --> 01:05:40,480
Speaker 1: a lot in the passing game and in the run game.

1310
01:05:41,080 --> 01:05:42,800
Speaker 1: So you just gotta set the tone early, because if

1311
01:05:42,840 --> 01:05:46,080
Speaker 1: you get those guys any confidence, they'll just try to

1312
01:05:46,160 --> 01:05:48,440
Speaker 1: check you all games. Yeah, and so he's gotta set

1313
01:05:48,520 --> 01:05:51,600
Speaker 1: the tone pretty early. What do you think about Garoppolo? Grandpolo?

1314
01:05:51,720 --> 01:05:53,760
Speaker 1: He's good, he's good. It's it's good to see him

1315
01:05:53,880 --> 01:05:56,440
Speaker 1: out there healthy, you know, having a whole season Tom

1316
01:05:56,640 --> 01:05:59,720
Speaker 1: to prove himself and he's doing good job. He's um,

1317
01:06:00,000 --> 01:06:01,640
Speaker 1: he's got to get the ball out really quick. He

1318
01:06:01,760 --> 01:06:05,240
Speaker 1: has some great office sive coordinator with a Shannonhan and

1319
01:06:05,360 --> 01:06:12,080
Speaker 1: so um wow, No, come on, all right, I got

1320
01:06:12,080 --> 01:06:15,360
Speaker 1: a little corner here going on here. Uh So, DK

1321
01:06:15,600 --> 01:06:19,560
Speaker 1: Metcalf has been awesome this season and he played at

1322
01:06:19,800 --> 01:06:21,520
Speaker 1: is there is there a little rivalry between you two

1323
01:06:21,520 --> 01:06:23,320
Speaker 1: since he went to Old mess and you you went

1324
01:06:23,320 --> 01:06:26,320
Speaker 1: to Mississippi State. Not at all. Welcome, welcome man with

1325
01:06:26,440 --> 01:06:29,000
Speaker 1: open arms. But the Egg Bowl is coming up. Yeah,

1326
01:06:29,160 --> 01:06:31,160
Speaker 1: you guys have anything on the line. We're putting some

1327
01:06:31,320 --> 01:06:33,240
Speaker 1: on the I don't know what it is, but both

1328
01:06:33,280 --> 01:06:37,040
Speaker 1: teams are really bad, so the stakes won't be too high.

1329
01:06:37,680 --> 01:06:41,840
Speaker 1: Uh So, I've always wondered at Mississippi State, why why

1330
01:06:42,240 --> 01:06:46,240
Speaker 1: why so much cow bell? You haven't heard I've never

1331
01:06:46,360 --> 01:06:50,120
Speaker 1: heard honestly, I never I never knew. So back in

1332
01:06:50,200 --> 01:06:54,280
Speaker 1: the day, I guess in the early nineteen hugs, they're

1333
01:06:54,280 --> 01:06:58,040
Speaker 1: playing a football game, and I guess a random cow

1334
01:06:58,840 --> 01:07:01,840
Speaker 1: had groaned onto the field. Oh god, and this is

1335
01:07:01,960 --> 01:07:04,920
Speaker 1: the state had warn and so you so it's like

1336
01:07:04,920 --> 01:07:07,160
Speaker 1: a lucky cow. That's a lucky cow. And he got

1337
01:07:07,200 --> 01:07:09,520
Speaker 1: the cow in the cow bills, and so they've been

1338
01:07:09,520 --> 01:07:11,880
Speaker 1: hadn't ever since they tried to ban it. Like I

1339
01:07:11,920 --> 01:07:15,080
Speaker 1: guess it was a it was an advantage. But um

1340
01:07:15,840 --> 01:07:18,720
Speaker 1: that's what it all seems from. Okay, I have no

1341
01:07:18,880 --> 01:07:21,240
Speaker 1: idea what I'm doing right now, just to be perfectly

1342
01:07:21,520 --> 01:07:26,000
Speaker 1: about to miss. Yeah yeah, yeah. When did they change

1343
01:07:26,040 --> 01:07:31,240

01:08:11,080 --> 01:08:12,480
Speaker 1: and I was like, can we just do this? And

1359
01:08:12,640 --> 01:08:15,720
Speaker 1: it's like, oh, by all means okay? And so everything

1360
01:08:15,800 --> 01:08:18,840
Speaker 1: went smooth. That's awesome, said yes, And they did like

1361
01:08:18,920 --> 01:08:21,920
Speaker 1: the things where they dropped down the Willie Many on

1362
01:08:22,040 --> 01:08:25,280
Speaker 1: the side of the plane. So she saw it and

1363
01:08:25,439 --> 01:08:27,360
Speaker 1: that's when she that's when she mean, is that the

1364
01:08:27,520 --> 01:08:29,400
Speaker 1: Is that the most nervous before that? Yeah, you've ever

1365
01:08:29,439 --> 01:08:31,599
Speaker 1: been in your life. I was actually good. She claimed

1366
01:08:31,600 --> 01:08:34,000
Speaker 1: that I was actually real weird that thing. I was like,

1367
01:08:34,120 --> 01:08:35,960
Speaker 1: there's no way because I was I was pretty smooth.

1368
01:08:36,120 --> 01:08:37,960
Speaker 1: There you go. But she claimed I was acting funny.

1369
01:08:38,080 --> 01:08:42,720
Speaker 1: So would you would you ever fly a plane like you? Uh,

1370
01:08:43,080 --> 01:08:46,519
Speaker 1: that's something my dad was really into and I am

1371
01:08:46,560 --> 01:08:50,760
Speaker 1: too scared. Yeah, I did the flight simulator and that

1372
01:08:50,920 --> 01:08:54,160
Speaker 1: thing feels it feels real, But yeah, I would love to.

1373
01:08:55,600 --> 01:08:59,960
Speaker 1: Oh that was nice. God, I got I gotta get

1374
01:09:00,080 --> 01:09:02,680
Speaker 1: the offense going here. It's robbing me like Bennett, this

1375
01:09:02,880 --> 01:09:05,240
Speaker 1: is this is can't you know that? I feel like

1376
01:09:05,360 --> 01:09:09,000
Speaker 1: right now I'm get out, No, no, no, get out,

1377
01:09:09,040 --> 01:09:12,840
Speaker 1: get out. What my goalie has played amazing. I'm not

1378
01:09:12,920 --> 01:09:14,920
Speaker 1: gonna lie. I wish I could take credit for it,

1379
01:09:15,080 --> 01:09:17,439
Speaker 1: but that is entirely the computer. There. What have you

1380
01:09:17,520 --> 01:09:19,599
Speaker 1: been talking about on your podcast? Man? My podcast called

1384
01:09:34,760 --> 01:09:39,639
Speaker 1: so pretty much. We talked about everything, UM relationships too, Okay,

1385
01:09:39,880 --> 01:09:44,719
Speaker 1: we talked about gun control, we talked about UM, should

01:09:44,720 --> 01:09:47,200
Speaker 1: athletes be paid, the college experience, we talk about it all.

1387
01:09:47,760 --> 01:09:50,240
Speaker 1: So it's really fun. Who just did this offseason? Awesome?

1388
01:09:50,280 --> 01:09:51,680
Speaker 1: Gon go pick it back up on the season in

1389
01:09:51,880 --> 01:09:54,160
Speaker 1: all right? Cool? What's what's been the trickiest part of

1390
01:09:54,200 --> 01:09:56,800
Speaker 1: starting a podcast? The trick is part of starting the

1391
01:09:56,880 --> 01:10:00,160
Speaker 1: podcast is I think with us, we got to um

1392
01:10:01,240 --> 01:10:04,640
Speaker 1: think about topics way beforehand because sometimes we just be like,

1393
01:10:04,680 --> 01:10:07,960
Speaker 1: all right, we got a topic, right, let's go, but yeah,

1394
01:10:08,200 --> 01:10:09,599
Speaker 1: and then getting the guests in. I want to get

1395
01:10:09,680 --> 01:10:11,760
Speaker 1: some more guests in to come in and speak with us.

1396
01:10:12,320 --> 01:10:14,479
Speaker 1: And so we had some good guys come in. Bobby

1397
01:10:14,560 --> 01:10:18,840
Speaker 1: came in, the twins came in, and see that's want

1398
01:10:18,880 --> 01:10:21,559
Speaker 1: to get more people in. We're running a young lady

1399
01:10:21,640 --> 01:10:25,400
Speaker 1: to speaking in speaking about relationships, so perpective does she

1400
01:10:25,520 --> 01:10:28,439
Speaker 1: have any I mean, I know you're married now, there

1401
01:10:28,760 --> 01:10:31,240
Speaker 1: is there any interesting advice that maybe I shouldn't be

1402
01:10:31,240 --> 01:10:33,880
Speaker 1: taken into my own life? Yes? I think with guys,

1403
01:10:33,960 --> 01:10:36,760
Speaker 1: guys just need to be more what's what I'm looking for?

1404
01:10:36,960 --> 01:10:40,240
Speaker 1: Authentic and real? Okay, don't be beat on its upfront,

1405
01:10:40,280 --> 01:10:41,960
Speaker 1: don't be lying to these young ladies. So tell them

1406
01:10:42,000 --> 01:10:45,439
Speaker 1: like right away that I'm a cat dad. Yes, yes, yeah,

1407
01:10:46,680 --> 01:10:50,679
Speaker 1: this is this is turning into a body back game. Okay, look,

1408
01:10:51,040 --> 01:10:53,120
Speaker 1: clearly this is no rivalry. You're way better than me

1409
01:10:53,200 --> 01:10:56,360
Speaker 1: at FIFA. But is there anything different playing under the

1410
01:10:56,479 --> 01:10:58,559
Speaker 1: lights and you guys have had a lot of success

1411
01:10:59,000 --> 01:11:01,240
Speaker 1: playing under the lights Monday Nights football war as we

1412
01:11:01,280 --> 01:11:03,720
Speaker 1: saw earlier this year on Thursday. Any different field going

1413
01:11:03,760 --> 01:11:06,479
Speaker 1: into the game, Um, little a little bit. You just

1414
01:11:06,680 --> 01:11:11,600
Speaker 1: know that it's Monday. Obviously everyone was watching and you

1415
01:11:11,640 --> 01:11:14,160
Speaker 1: know it's a tough opponent, and so I say a

1416
01:11:14,200 --> 01:11:15,479
Speaker 1: little bit. At the end of the day, when the

1417
01:11:15,520 --> 01:11:18,519
Speaker 1: ball is snap, it's still football time. You got a

1418
01:11:18,560 --> 01:11:21,240
Speaker 1: running hit. But but the lead up to the game

1419
01:11:21,479 --> 01:11:23,960
Speaker 1: is more media around it, and so you definitely feel

1420
01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:26,920
Speaker 1: those buys. But overall, when the ball is snap, let's

1421
01:11:26,960 --> 01:11:30,000
Speaker 1: go time. All right, Well, kJ just destroyed me. Um,

1422
01:11:30,200 --> 01:11:32,040
Speaker 1: this is this is awful. I'm gonna need I'm gonna

1423
01:11:32,040 --> 01:11:34,439
Speaker 1: need I spat after this one because this one really hurts.

1424
01:11:34,720 --> 01:11:37,800
Speaker 1: He's kJ right, kJ, appreciate it, man, this was a

1425
01:11:37,840 --> 01:11:40,439
Speaker 1: lot of fun. Good luck this week. Good luck against

1426
01:11:40,479 --> 01:11:43,800
Speaker 1: the forty nine ers, and we'll see maybe if you

1427
01:11:44,000 --> 01:11:46,080
Speaker 1: guys can improve to eight and two. Let's do it.

1428
01:11:46,200 --> 01:11:48,200
Speaker 1: Let's do it. Let's do it. Thank you man, No problem.

1429
01:11:50,720 --> 01:11:53,760
Speaker 1: There they go, Paul, go launch and kJ right. I

1430
01:11:53,920 --> 01:11:56,759
Speaker 1: know this about kJ. He's not a cat guy. Because

1431
01:11:57,080 --> 01:11:59,000
Speaker 1: Kevin Pierre Lewis had a cat. He said when he

1432
01:11:59,080 --> 01:12:01,240
Speaker 1: went over to his house in time, He's like, yeah,

1433
01:12:01,240 --> 01:12:02,800
Speaker 1: I saw that cat. I had my eye on that

1434
01:12:02,920 --> 01:12:06,479
Speaker 1: cat the whole time. I don't trust cats. Paul Gallant

1435
01:12:06,760 --> 01:12:09,040
Speaker 1: is a cat guy. I like cats because they kill things.

1436
01:12:09,479 --> 01:12:13,599
Speaker 1: You like cats because your your wife, that lover, animal

1437
01:12:13,680 --> 01:12:16,880
Speaker 1: lover and you have no choice. Yeah. Okay, well that's

1438
01:12:16,960 --> 01:12:19,439
Speaker 1: actually the truth. It is true. But I've learned to

1439
01:12:19,560 --> 01:12:22,519
Speaker 1: love them. You don't trust them. Don't trust kJ doesn't either.

1440
01:12:22,640 --> 01:12:24,200
Speaker 1: You can go out and live your own life for

1441
01:12:24,240 --> 01:12:29,679
Speaker 1: a week and come back. You don't need me. Like dogs. Yeah,

1442
01:12:29,760 --> 01:12:32,560
Speaker 1: the cats and they move stuff. The cats kind of

1443
01:12:32,640 --> 01:12:35,800
Speaker 1: have that. I really don't give a belief about you, man.

1444
01:12:36,400 --> 01:12:38,400
Speaker 1: I'm self sufficient. I can take care of it. But

1445
01:12:38,439 --> 01:12:40,280
Speaker 1: it was so funny. kJ was like, Yeah, I had

1446
01:12:40,360 --> 01:12:44,120
Speaker 1: my eye on that cat the whole night. They're not evil, man,

1447
01:12:45,560 --> 01:12:48,679
Speaker 1: all right. That was entertaining. kJ such a good dude.

1448
01:12:49,000 --> 01:12:51,760
Speaker 1: Uh and uh, well, I'll tell you what. Coming up,

1449
01:12:51,760 --> 01:12:54,439
Speaker 1: we're gonna do our final thoughts. I don't like giving predictions,

1450
01:12:54,560 --> 01:12:57,320
Speaker 1: but we'll tell you how we think this game is

1451
01:12:57,400 --> 01:13:01,280
Speaker 1: gonna go. Paul Moyer, Michael mus Dave Wyman. That's next

1452

Speaker 1: on Hawks Live, Hawks Live every Thursday from seven to

1453
01:13:05,400 --> 01:13:11,960
Speaker 1: nine Live at snow Qualmy Casino on seven espncle Welcome

1454
01:13:12,000 --> 01:13:15,320
Speaker 1: back to the snow Qualmy Casino. Michael Bumpas, Paul Moyer,

1455
01:13:15,439 --> 01:13:19,160
Speaker 1: Dave Wyman. Guys, final thoughts going into this game. You know,

1456
01:13:19,200 --> 01:13:21,439
Speaker 1: it's funny when the you start talking about it in

1457
01:13:21,479 --> 01:13:23,760
Speaker 1: the beginning. First you you know, kind of go through

1458
01:13:24,000 --> 01:13:27,000
Speaker 1: and do the autopsy on the game before, and then

1459
01:13:27,000 --> 01:13:30,080
Speaker 1: about Tuesday Wednesday, you start feeling getting a feeling for

1460
01:13:30,760 --> 01:13:34,000
Speaker 1: this game. And I feel like the longer this week goes,

1461
01:13:34,120 --> 01:13:36,960
Speaker 1: sometimes I get more uptight, kind of like before Baltimore,

1462
01:13:37,960 --> 01:13:40,160
Speaker 1: I felt like, oh man, how are they going to

1463
01:13:40,200 --> 01:13:44,519
Speaker 1: stop this running game? But you know that's not like

1464
01:13:44,600 --> 01:13:46,800
Speaker 1: I was one hundred percent this year, but that's how

1465
01:13:47,160 --> 01:13:49,679
Speaker 1: the feeling went as the week went on. This week,

1466
01:13:49,840 --> 01:13:52,040
Speaker 1: I'm starting to feel more positive. And maybe it's because

1467
01:13:52,080 --> 01:13:55,400
Speaker 1: there's been so much negativity around the seven and two team.

1468
01:13:55,760 --> 01:13:58,519
Speaker 1: How do you guys feel that the outcome? What's it

1469
01:13:58,600 --> 01:14:02,960
Speaker 1: gonna look like? On Monday night? Well, I, as you

1470
01:14:03,120 --> 01:14:07,120
Speaker 1: know that the movie Blink or the book Blink. I

1471
01:14:07,280 --> 01:14:09,880
Speaker 1: try to do a quick assessment and just say, okay,

1472
01:14:09,960 --> 01:14:12,599
Speaker 1: now let me go analyze it and see what I'm seeing.

1473
01:14:12,720 --> 01:14:15,559
Speaker 1: Is that true or not? And my first thought when

1474
01:14:15,600 --> 01:14:19,080
Speaker 1: I looked at them San Francisco, I went, wow, I

1475
01:14:19,200 --> 01:14:22,519
Speaker 1: go they are a problem. And I can't get this

1476
01:14:22,720 --> 01:14:25,439
Speaker 1: vision out of my mind of these four or five

1477
01:14:25,920 --> 01:14:30,959
Speaker 1: defensive linemen just barreling down on people, and the corners

1478
01:14:31,000 --> 01:14:34,520
Speaker 1: and safeties they're all just sitting there. They're not even backpedal,

1479
01:14:34,600 --> 01:14:36,600
Speaker 1: and they're just waiting for the guys to come to

1480
01:14:36,760 --> 01:14:40,040
Speaker 1: them so that they can jump the pass. And I

1481
01:14:40,120 --> 01:14:42,800
Speaker 1: can't get that vision out of my brain. And so

1482
01:14:43,560 --> 01:14:45,920
Speaker 1: we cannot get into a second and long, third and

1483
01:14:45,960 --> 01:14:48,559
Speaker 1: long situation. We're gonna have to make this very physical

1484
01:14:48,640 --> 01:14:51,800
Speaker 1: football game. They're physical, but they're not physical in the

1485
01:14:51,920 --> 01:14:54,640
Speaker 1: run game. Defensively, that is their one weakness, and we

1486
01:14:54,760 --> 01:14:57,920
Speaker 1: have got to exploit that. It's the Dave I will

1487
01:14:57,960 --> 01:15:01,639
Speaker 1: say this in five six years. It's the first time

1488
01:15:01,920 --> 01:15:05,080
Speaker 1: I've really said I don't know how we're gonna beat him.

1489
01:15:05,640 --> 01:15:08,240
Speaker 1: Now I'm hoping I'm wrong, because now I start game

1490
01:15:08,320 --> 01:15:10,880
Speaker 1: playing and I watched the Arizona game, I go, there's

1491
01:15:10,960 --> 01:15:14,200
Speaker 1: plays to be had. We're gonna have to take shots downfield.

1492
01:15:14,200 --> 01:15:16,800
Speaker 1: We're gonna have to be patient in the running game.

1493
01:15:17,080 --> 01:15:19,640
Speaker 1: I think we can do some stuff to them defensively.

1494
01:15:20,080 --> 01:15:22,479
Speaker 1: I'm curious to see how that game plan comes up.

1495
01:15:22,920 --> 01:15:25,560
Speaker 1: But I've we've we've been in this situation before. We

1496
01:15:25,680 --> 01:15:27,839
Speaker 1: went this is gonna be a tough game for Russell

1497
01:15:28,280 --> 01:15:30,639
Speaker 1: only for Russell to just light it up. He sees

1498
01:15:30,680 --> 01:15:33,200
Speaker 1: it different than we do. But this is the I

1499
01:15:33,240 --> 01:15:34,960
Speaker 1: think this is one of the toughest games we're gonna

1500
01:15:35,000 --> 01:15:37,320
Speaker 1: play in the last four or five years. I think

1501
01:15:37,360 --> 01:15:39,960
Speaker 1: they're that good upfront, and I think with a getting

1502
01:15:40,040 --> 01:15:43,640
Speaker 1: d Ford and this boasted kid it is it's a

1503
01:15:43,720 --> 01:15:46,960
Speaker 1: relentless defense that's playing at a super high level. And

1504
01:15:47,040 --> 01:15:49,599
Speaker 1: so I'm really curiously it can we physically get after

1505
01:15:49,720 --> 01:15:51,600
Speaker 1: him on the line and just say, you know what,

1506
01:15:51,720 --> 01:15:54,120
Speaker 1: here's what we do. We may run it twenty times

1507
01:15:54,160 --> 01:15:55,960
Speaker 1: in a row and then we'll take some shots down

1508
01:15:56,040 --> 01:15:58,479
Speaker 1: field once we loose them out. It's it's gonna be

1509
01:15:58,520 --> 01:16:04,040
Speaker 1: a tough game. I'm looking for the break, like where

1510
01:16:04,280 --> 01:16:07,760
Speaker 1: can the Seahawks catch a break? So every day I've

1511
01:16:07,800 --> 01:16:11,320
Speaker 1: been looking at the injury report. Who's healthy, who's not healthy? Where,

1512
01:16:11,600 --> 01:16:14,280
Speaker 1: Where is there a matchup that these guys can exploit?

1513
01:16:14,520 --> 01:16:17,160
Speaker 1: And when I see Dfourd questionable, you know he's gonna play.

1514
01:16:17,160 --> 01:16:21,800
Speaker 1: But at least I know, hey, he's banged okay, Britta questionable,

1515
01:16:21,880 --> 01:16:25,360
Speaker 1: he's gonna play. He's gonna play, but maybe he's banged up.

1516
01:16:25,400 --> 01:16:27,960
Speaker 1: So that I look for where's the break gonna be

1517
01:16:28,240 --> 01:16:30,479
Speaker 1: And then when I when I think of the football game,

1518
01:16:30,800 --> 01:16:33,439
Speaker 1: I look at the emotional part of the game. It's

1519
01:16:33,560 --> 01:16:37,519
Speaker 1: Monday night, they're in San fran they have to weather

1520
01:16:37,640 --> 01:16:40,320
Speaker 1: the first wave of the storm. You have the weather

1521
01:16:40,360 --> 01:16:42,800
Speaker 1: first wave. You can't let the Niners come out and

1522
01:16:43,000 --> 01:16:44,920
Speaker 1: drive the ball down the field, put up seven and

1523
01:16:45,000 --> 01:16:47,360
Speaker 1: then have the Hawks go at three and out. That

1524
01:16:47,600 --> 01:16:50,759
Speaker 1: first half of the first quarter is going to be crucial.

1525
01:16:50,960 --> 01:16:54,559
Speaker 1: Can they find themselves to calm down, execute the offense

1526
01:16:54,960 --> 01:16:57,920
Speaker 1: and overcome all of the hype because to me, this

1527
01:16:58,120 --> 01:17:00,600
Speaker 1: is the biggest game in the NFL all year. You

1528
01:17:00,720 --> 01:17:02,720
Speaker 1: got the seven and two Hawks verse the A No.

1529
01:17:02,880 --> 01:17:06,400
Speaker 1: Forty nine Ers. The rivalry is renewed. The NFC West

1530
01:17:06,520 --> 01:17:08,639
Speaker 1: is hot right now. So there's a lot of emotion

1531
01:17:08,800 --> 01:17:11,720
Speaker 1: behind this. Get through that first wave, and then it

1532
01:17:11,800 --> 01:17:14,559
Speaker 1: comes down to, Okay, who's the better coach team? Then

1533
01:17:14,640 --> 01:17:17,639
Speaker 1: who's going to execute? And I look at this forty

1534
01:17:17,720 --> 01:17:21,720
Speaker 1: nine er defense and you talk about Bolsa, Eric arm Stay,

1535
01:17:21,800 --> 01:17:25,240
Speaker 1: like all these guys who are making plays, How is

1536
01:17:25,320 --> 01:17:27,360
Speaker 1: Russell gonna handle that? How is that old line gonna

1537
01:17:27,360 --> 01:17:30,599
Speaker 1: handle that? Russell was hit eleven times last game? Eleven

1538
01:17:30,720 --> 01:17:32,639
Speaker 1: times and this is the best defensive line these guys

1539
01:17:32,680 --> 01:17:36,240
Speaker 1: are gonna see. So keep him upright, find a break somewhere,

1540
01:17:36,680 --> 01:17:40,800
Speaker 1: exploit that matchup, and whether the emotional storm that's inevitable.

1541
01:17:40,960 --> 01:17:44,200
Speaker 1: I'm curious on the emotion who's who is more emotion

1542
01:17:44,240 --> 01:17:46,680
Speaker 1: because the one thing I did but I don't want

1543
01:17:46,680 --> 01:17:49,519
Speaker 1: to say bother because I heard you there day worries me.

1544
01:17:49,920 --> 01:17:54,080
Speaker 1: The challenge is they play with a lot of emotion too. Um,

1545
01:17:54,520 --> 01:17:57,040
Speaker 1: the ones that day, I think of their thirty sacks,

1546
01:17:57,640 --> 01:18:00,400
Speaker 1: twenty four of them have come from the defensive line,

1547
01:18:00,840 --> 01:18:03,880
Speaker 1: which means they're rushing four guys ours. We got linebackers

1548
01:18:03,920 --> 01:18:07,920
Speaker 1: and safeties and all over the board. But you can't

1549
01:18:08,000 --> 01:18:13,840
Speaker 1: ever underestimate Pete Carroll, Prime Time, Russell Wilson, just our

1550
01:18:13,920 --> 01:18:16,760
Speaker 1: physical nature and you know the experience that we have.

1551
01:18:17,479 --> 01:18:21,080
Speaker 1: I can't wait for Monday, I really, I'm I'm so excited.

1552
01:18:21,240 --> 01:18:23,360
Speaker 1: My gut is it's gonna be a tough game. We're

1553
01:18:23,360 --> 01:18:25,760
Speaker 1: gonna to play a perfect game and we're capable of

1554
01:18:25,840 --> 01:18:28,880
Speaker 1: doing it. Yeah. Well, and also you mentioned Pete Carroll.

1555
01:18:29,760 --> 01:18:32,840
Speaker 1: What are they on Prime Time? Some ridiculous thing. It's

1556
01:18:32,880 --> 01:18:37,280
Speaker 1: like five and one, twenty seven, five and one in

1557
01:18:37,360 --> 01:18:39,760
Speaker 1: primetime since Pretty Carroll. And then they're also forty four

1558
01:18:39,800 --> 01:18:43,920
Speaker 1: and seventeen November, December, January and regular season games. So look,

1559
01:18:44,000 --> 01:18:45,640
Speaker 1: this is a this is a second half of the

1560
01:18:45,720 --> 01:18:48,719
Speaker 1: season team. And then you know, I heard a national

1561
01:18:48,760 --> 01:18:51,400
Speaker 1: guy saying that Russell Wilson has had to come back

1562
01:18:51,479 --> 01:18:55,719
Speaker 1: in what three games? Four games? But that's that's the bonus.

1563
01:18:55,880 --> 01:18:58,240
Speaker 1: That's that's a good thing. That's a good thing. But

1564
01:18:58,360 --> 01:19:00,840
Speaker 1: I know I understand what he's saying, because you know,

1565
01:19:00,960 --> 01:19:03,920
Speaker 1: the Niners haven't had to do that. But you know,

1566
01:19:04,520 --> 01:19:07,200
Speaker 1: there's nothing like a two by four upside the head.

1567
01:19:07,240 --> 01:19:10,320
Speaker 1: And if they're able to give that defense run on them,

1568
01:19:10,439 --> 01:19:12,280
Speaker 1: they're not great. They're middle of the road as far

1569
01:19:12,320 --> 01:19:15,240
Speaker 1: as run defense goes four point seven yards per carry.

1570
01:19:15,320 --> 01:19:17,760
Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's a high number. Yeah, you know,

1571
01:19:17,960 --> 01:19:20,680
Speaker 1: so I agree day Yeah, But I'll tell you this.

1572
01:19:21,000 --> 01:19:23,479
Speaker 1: The thing that I guess bothers me the most. Yeah,

1573
01:19:23,560 --> 01:19:26,000
Speaker 1: they have talent, but they're playing together right now. You

1574
01:19:26,040 --> 01:19:28,759
Speaker 1: look at San Francisco and I guess the one example

1575
01:19:28,840 --> 01:19:31,800
Speaker 1: I would give is their running game. When you watch

1576
01:19:31,920 --> 01:19:34,519
Speaker 1: the runs, they're pretty old school. They're pretty I don't

1577
01:19:34,520 --> 01:19:37,760
Speaker 1: want to say basic, but you know they're they're their

1578
01:19:38,040 --> 01:19:40,960
Speaker 1: plays actually from our era, Paul, from the eighties and nineties.

1579
01:19:40,960 --> 01:19:42,920
Speaker 1: They line up an eye and they run power out

1580
01:19:43,160 --> 01:19:46,280
Speaker 1: and bob and all those different things. But I saw

1581
01:19:46,360 --> 01:19:48,880
Speaker 1: a running play and when you freeze it, you see

1582
01:19:48,920 --> 01:19:51,519
Speaker 1: a body on a body, like everybody's doing their job.

1583
01:19:52,040 --> 01:19:56,240
Speaker 1: I was watching the Carolina game and one of a

1584
01:19:56,360 --> 01:19:59,759
Speaker 1: blocker goes out and just abuses Luke Keekley like blocks

1585
01:19:59,800 --> 01:20:01,599
Speaker 1: of up and then just slams him to the ground.

1586
01:20:01,600 --> 01:20:03,800
Speaker 1: I'm like, man, I want, who's that guy? I was

1587
01:20:04,080 --> 01:20:05,960
Speaker 1: expecting to see a guard or a tackle. It was

1588
01:20:06,040 --> 01:20:09,840
Speaker 1: George Kettle. Yeah, So I mean, we'll see if he's

1589
01:20:09,880 --> 01:20:12,360
Speaker 1: able to play. But just the way they're playing together

1590
01:20:12,520 --> 01:20:15,439
Speaker 1: right now, that's the thing. I guess that that concerns me,

1591
01:20:16,000 --> 01:20:19,200
Speaker 1: and that the Seahawks aren't playing together. And I mean,

1592
01:20:19,320 --> 01:20:21,120
Speaker 1: good enough to be seven and two, but I feel

1593
01:20:21,160 --> 01:20:24,080
Speaker 1: like they have much more potential that if they do

1594
01:20:24,280 --> 01:20:27,120
Speaker 1: play together the way San Francisco is, and look, they're

1595
01:20:27,120 --> 01:20:31,040
Speaker 1: well coached. They are, so they will at some point

1596
01:20:31,120 --> 01:20:33,240
Speaker 1: and I'm waiting to see it. But I'm with you, Paul,

1597
01:20:33,280 --> 01:20:36,200
Speaker 1: I can't. I can't wait to watch on Monday, and

1598
01:20:36,280 --> 01:20:39,720
Speaker 1: I think they certainly have a chance to beat them,

1599
01:20:39,760 --> 01:20:43,360
Speaker 1: but I think everybody else's you know, and well, especially

1600
01:20:43,400 --> 01:20:45,479
Speaker 1: around town. I think it's kind of a defense mechanism

1601
01:20:45,560 --> 01:20:47,560
Speaker 1: for fans. They don't want to go too far in

1602
01:20:48,280 --> 01:20:50,760
Speaker 1: on this team. But I say, go go all in, man,

1603
01:20:51,040 --> 01:20:53,559
Speaker 1: put all your chips in and watch this team go down,

1604
01:20:53,640 --> 01:20:55,839
Speaker 1: because this would be if you look at the schedule,

1605
01:20:56,120 --> 01:20:58,280
Speaker 1: it's by far them, it would be the most unlikely win.

1606
01:20:58,800 --> 01:21:01,760
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it's there. Remember last year I thought, I

1607
01:21:01,800 --> 01:21:03,719
Speaker 1: don't know if you guys felt this way, but Carolina

1608
01:21:03,760 --> 01:21:05,920
Speaker 1: had won ten in a row at home going back

1609
01:21:05,920 --> 01:21:09,559
Speaker 1: to the previous year, and that was a tough trip

1610
01:21:09,640 --> 01:21:12,040
Speaker 1: to make. That was an unlikely win. And they early

1611
01:21:12,120 --> 01:21:14,839
Speaker 1: on they shut the running game down and then Russell

1612
01:21:15,640 --> 01:21:18,160
Speaker 1: did his magic and they you know, well, and we

1613
01:21:18,240 --> 01:21:20,320
Speaker 1: saw what happened to New England against Baltimore and went

1614
01:21:20,439 --> 01:21:22,280
Speaker 1: up against a really good football team. I mean, all

1615
01:21:22,280 --> 01:21:25,519
Speaker 1: of a sudden, their mystique is over. And if I

1616
01:21:25,680 --> 01:21:29,000
Speaker 1: didn't dislike San Francisco so much, because I do not

1617
01:21:29,680 --> 01:21:33,479
Speaker 1: dislike a team more than San Francisco, just the rivalry

1618
01:21:33,560 --> 01:21:35,479
Speaker 1: just and it make goes back to the eighties. You

1619
01:21:35,560 --> 01:21:40,559
Speaker 1: guys never liked them. If I didn't dislike them so much,

1620
01:21:40,560 --> 01:21:43,000
Speaker 1: I would love to watch them. I really do, because

1621
01:21:43,040 --> 01:21:46,080
Speaker 1: they are a fun team to watch. Oh Man, when

1622
01:21:46,120 --> 01:21:48,240
Speaker 1: they're having fun, they're having fun the right way. It's

1623
01:21:48,280 --> 01:21:52,120
Speaker 1: not even a disrespectful way. It's it's to themselves. It

1624
01:21:52,280 --> 01:21:54,400
Speaker 1: reminds me I hate doing this because other teams have

1625
01:21:54,680 --> 01:21:56,880
Speaker 1: brought this up in the past. Oh it reminds me

1626
01:21:56,960 --> 01:21:59,960
Speaker 1: of the Seahawks in twenty thirteen. It reminds me of

1627
01:22:00,360 --> 01:22:03,880
Speaker 1: the twenty thirteen Sea defense. The way they're just flying around,

1628
01:22:03,960 --> 01:22:08,160
Speaker 1: having fun, making plays, getting after the quarterback. They're really

1629
01:22:08,200 --> 01:22:09,880
Speaker 1: good and I hope we put a whooping on them.

1630
01:22:09,960 --> 01:22:12,040
Speaker 1: And they're a tough team. There was a play last

1631
01:22:12,080 --> 01:22:14,880
Speaker 1: week where Kittle goals for a block and looks like

1632
01:22:14,960 --> 01:22:18,680
Speaker 1: he hyper extends his knee. Three plays later, they give

1633
01:22:18,800 --> 01:22:20,880
Speaker 1: him the ball, he stiff starns a dude, drives them

1634
01:22:20,920 --> 01:22:23,240
Speaker 1: to their ground, dives into the end zone. I'm like,

1635
01:22:23,400 --> 01:22:26,080
Speaker 1: this is a tough football team. And then they score

1636
01:22:26,560 --> 01:22:29,360
Speaker 1: and the celebration is just different. You know, when the

1637
01:22:29,400 --> 01:22:32,280
Speaker 1: Seahawks scorer, everyone's excited, they do their dance or something.

1638
01:22:32,360 --> 01:22:35,320
Speaker 1: But when the forty nine ers scored, it seemed like

1639
01:22:35,360 --> 01:22:37,560
Speaker 1: it was just a release of emotion and everyone was

1640
01:22:37,560 --> 01:22:40,799
Speaker 1: on the same page. And like you said, they're playing together.

1641
01:22:40,960 --> 01:22:43,280
Speaker 1: They are a tight knit group, and that is a

1642
01:22:43,400 --> 01:22:45,320
Speaker 1: dangerous group. I don't care if you're the best team

1643
01:22:45,360 --> 01:22:48,559
Speaker 1: in the NFL, you're a middle of the road NFL team.

1644
01:22:48,720 --> 01:22:51,320
Speaker 1: If you play together and you get about forty five

1645
01:22:51,439 --> 01:22:53,439
Speaker 1: guys believing in what the heck is going on, you

1646
01:22:53,560 --> 01:22:56,959
Speaker 1: become extremely dangerous. And I truly believe a man that handsome,

1647
01:22:57,720 --> 01:23:01,479
Speaker 1: that pretty like Garoppolo not truly take it to the

1648
01:23:01,520 --> 01:23:05,240
Speaker 1: promised lane. You gotta have some something negative, right, one

1649
01:23:05,320 --> 01:23:08,800
Speaker 1: hundred million dollars the best looking quarterback in the history

1650
01:23:08,840 --> 01:23:12,560
Speaker 1: of the NFL. You cannot Tom Brady. That's what my

1651
01:23:12,640 --> 01:23:16,640
Speaker 1: wife said. Well, Tom's Tom's nice looking, but you know,

1652
01:23:16,720 --> 01:23:19,360
