Speaker 1: and mister Paul Moyer, these Hawks are four Now went

7
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:29,000
Speaker 1: down to Florida. Handled the time change, the weather, they

8
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:32,120
Speaker 1: had a crowd for the first time, handled it like pros.

9
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:36,320
Speaker 1: Made it back. What stood out to you, well, I

10
00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:39,560
Speaker 1: think a lot one is I felt defensively, I thought

11
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:42,479
Speaker 1: we played our best team defense and that's not a

12
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:44,720
Speaker 1: you know. Somebody said was out a knock on Jamal Adams.

13
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:47,640
Speaker 1: I said no. I just thought as a group, we

14
00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:49,600
Speaker 1: we played good team d We didn't give up any

15
00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:53,600
Speaker 1: big plays. There's nothing over thirty yards. I thought we

16
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:57,200
Speaker 1: tackled well. Again. I thought our pass rush was good.

17
00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:00,440
Speaker 1: You know, it wasn't like he was sitting there patting

18
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:02,960
Speaker 1: the ball looking for receivers. He went back there. He

19
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:04,320
Speaker 1: had to get rid of the ball. You know, on

20
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:06,720
Speaker 1: on time, you know natural do you want the ball

21
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 1: to come out now as a as a coordinator, it's

22
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 1: you know, a secondary coach. Now I can start design

23
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 1: and pass defense, take away your primary and now he's

24
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:17,960
Speaker 1: got to pull it down. I feel the pass for

25
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:22,640
Speaker 1: US thing can get there. I truly believe we're getting

26
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 1: better and I think we're gonna be a decent pass

27
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:26,280
Speaker 1: for US team by the by the end of the year.

28
00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:30,520
Speaker 1: So offensively, it looks say o, samo, I just pick

29
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:34,479
Speaker 1: your poison. I mean, it's DK, It's Tyler, It's DK.

30
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 1: It's Tyler's DK. This time we had everybody from you know, Carson, uh,

31
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 1: Tyed Olson. I mean everybody was involved. So Freddie Swain,

32
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 1: I think he's a guy. You you can't just say, oh,

33
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:50,520
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take care of those other two studs. You

34
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 1: know he can hurt you too. So offense is just, uh,

35
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:55,640
Speaker 1: they're at a pace. It's ridiculous. Man. I watched the

36
00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:59,480
Speaker 1: film and I saw a defense. When I see linebackers

37
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 1: antis painting routes, getting their hands up to try to

38
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,000
Speaker 1: make plays on the football, that just lets me know

39
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:08,240
Speaker 1: that they're understanding what they're seeing. I feel like in

40
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 1: weeks prior, guys are running behind them, don't even fill them.

41
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 1: You know, guys are running across their face. They're not

42
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:14,920
Speaker 1: putting hands on him. And I looked at the defense.

43
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:17,919
Speaker 1: I saw Bobby trying to get after it. Obviously kJ

44
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,240
Speaker 1: could had his hands on a couple of footballs. And

45
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:22,360
Speaker 1: then Ryan Neil, the guy who gets bumped up from

46
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:25,080
Speaker 1: practice squad. This dude can play football. He did have

47
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 1: that that pick earlier than that big hit. But other

48
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 1: than that, I mean, he's flying to the football, he's

49
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:33,080
Speaker 1: in the right spot. He's showing too high, rolling down

50
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,240
Speaker 1: and playing the mind games with the quarterback. He had

51
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 1: a tackle for loss. Like this doesn't look like a

52
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:39,639
Speaker 1: dude who was just activated off a practice squad. He's

53
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 1: a practice squad guy. I mean he woke up on

54
00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 1: a Sunday a week ago, well a week ago Sunday,

55
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,520
Speaker 1: and hey, you're up. And then Jamal gets hurt and

56
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,680
Speaker 1: he makes the game, you know, saving the interception against

57
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:54,880
Speaker 1: the Cowboys. He can play football. That's a small sample size,

58
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:56,320
Speaker 1: and I was getting it. I was gonna get a

59
00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 1: little bold, you know, because they said, look, he can

60
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 1: play cover two. Wropped down in the backside of a

61
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,119
Speaker 1: slot like Jamal does and come up on that tight

62
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 1: end and blitz. He does a nice job there, very

63
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:10,360
Speaker 1: good tackler, and more important, he has a feel for

64
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 1: the passing game, both in pattern recognition and the feel

65
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:17,919
Speaker 1: on the quarterback. And I mentioned it with Dave Wyman.

66
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,400
Speaker 1: I go, I don't know if he's been taught really

67
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 1: well or if it's just natural. It's probably just natural.

68
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:25,920
Speaker 1: There's just some guys who just have that instinct. They

69
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 1: just have good peripheral vision, They've got a good set.

70
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:31,400
Speaker 1: He has a good sense. If he keeps playing the

71
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,680
Speaker 1: way he's playing, I see us going in more with

72
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 1: a three safety set. We dropped Jamal down as one

73
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,560
Speaker 1: of the outside linebackers. That way we can still blitz

74
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:42,800
Speaker 1: without sending the farm. He's you know, he's great in

75
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,240
Speaker 1: the box. And now you've got Neil behind. If it

76
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 1: could play cover two, we can drop down and play

77
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 1: both Adams and him opposite each other, kind of like

78
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 1: a four four set, and we just call it a

79
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 1: four two. So you got four down line and two linebackers,

80
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 1: two safety, So you know, a form of a nickel set.

81
00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 1: I think here something that let's us have some versatility.

82
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 1: And again we got a game and a quarter with him.

83
00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 1: But I really do like what I've seen. I like

84
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 1: what I've seen out of him. I also like what

85
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:11,440
Speaker 1: I seen out as You Kill Griffin the past couple

86
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 1: of weeks, especially this week, I used to watch when

87
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:16,320
Speaker 1: I was with the Hearts. I used to watch Marcus

88
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 1: Truefont guard guys and it was almost like he was

89
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 1: running the route for them going backwards. Now Shack isn't Truefont,

90
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:24,919
Speaker 1: But every now and then I see little glens. I'm like,

91
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 1: he's anticipating this, and I think he and I want

92
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,719
Speaker 1: to get the coaches some credit, because when I feel

93
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:35,440
Speaker 1: like defenders are recognizing route combinations, that means that they've

94
00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 1: gotten the scott and report. The coaches have drilled it

95
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:39,280
Speaker 1: into them. They took it to practice to get to

96
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,240
Speaker 1: drill to get the team, and now it was showing

97
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,360
Speaker 1: up on Sunday. That just doesn't happen. I guy isn't

98
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:45,480
Speaker 1: to show up on a Sunday. And now he's backpedaling,

99
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:47,840
Speaker 1: breaking on the post with confidence. I see a real

100
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:51,000
Speaker 1: confident corner in Shock right now. Yeah, he's a grass

101
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:53,440
Speaker 1: of two, He's not. I mean, he truly playing some

102
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 1: bumping and he's marrying their receivers. What's interesting is to

103
00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,600
Speaker 1: watch something on film and it's just one of those

104
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:05,280
Speaker 1: a she always go but what if he ran, you know,

105
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:07,719
Speaker 1: and in and go. That mean he just jumped it

106
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,680
Speaker 1: and the ball wasn't there. Man, You can't take that

107
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 1: away from a corner. You say, look, this is what

108
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,480
Speaker 1: we saw on film. We know in this situation, this

109
00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:16,120
Speaker 1: is what they like to run. They start to run

110
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:18,480
Speaker 1: that you trust your instincts. Now, there's a point where

111
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:20,479
Speaker 1: you got to feel the rush and there's a quarterback

112
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 1: going to throw it or not, and you got to

113
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 1: be somewhat careful at times, but the other times you

114
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:27,240
Speaker 1: just got to trust what you see. And there were

115
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 1: a bunch of times where I saw Neil do that.

116
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,760
Speaker 1: I certainly saw Griffin do that. I see Digs do that.

117
00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:34,400
Speaker 1: You know Trey Flowers is the one right now that

118
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:37,920
Speaker 1: he just doesn't quite have that confidence. He hadn't And

119
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,240
Speaker 1: I thought he had that confidence last year. Some people

120
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:41,680
Speaker 1: who dogged him a little bit towards the end of

121
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:42,920
Speaker 1: the year, but I thought he had a good year.

122
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 1: But I had a coach tell me a long time ago,

123
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:50,040
Speaker 1: know your limitations, know your strengths and weaknesses, and if

124
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 1: you don't feel comfortable right now doing bump then you know,

125
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 1: don't get beat over the top. Play a technique that

126
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:58,800
Speaker 1: you're comfortable with, and I think that's what he's doing.

127
00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,120
Speaker 1: He's doing a lot of whether he's in a bump

128
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:05,240
Speaker 1: press position or he runs out, he's opening up immediately

129
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:07,839
Speaker 1: to the inside so we can see the quarterback and

130
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:10,520
Speaker 1: be on the outside shoulder of the receiver. He's doing

131
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:12,680
Speaker 1: that a bunch. It's gonna be hard to stop shorter routes,

132
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 1: but that's okay. Last week we didn't give up any

133
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:17,839
Speaker 1: big plays. It's it's hard to go down to field

134
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,279
Speaker 1: DNC and Dunk and eighty arts. Yeah, you make a team,

135
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,039
Speaker 1: Deacon Dunk. They gotta put together twelve fourteen player drives

136
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,679
Speaker 1: and we all know that bad things happen when guys

137
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 1: get tired. Now, let's talk about the old man on

138
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,600
Speaker 1: that second level. kJ Wright. He cut that deal two

139
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 1: years ago. People thought he'd be good for one. This

140
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,120
Speaker 1: second year he'd be gone. He's stepping his game up.

141
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:38,920
Speaker 1: Could have had two picks, But I'm seeing a dude

142
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,200
Speaker 1: who one understands what he's seeing. I feel like that's

143
00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:43,600
Speaker 1: the theme for the defense last week. They understood what

144
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,240
Speaker 1: they were looking at, flying to the football, getting his

145
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:48,080
Speaker 1: hands on the rock. He says, his goal this year

146
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:50,440
Speaker 1: is to have five interceptions. We'll see if he gets there.

147
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:52,280
Speaker 1: But this doesn't look like a dude who's in his

148
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,920
Speaker 1: what tenth the year in the NFL. No, he's, well,

149
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 1: we know how smart a player and how good a

150
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 1: football player he is. And you know, look, you get older,

151
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:01,919
Speaker 1: you lose that a half step here and there. It happens.

152
00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:05,880
Speaker 1: You make up with Yeah, just being smart and experience

153
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:08,800
Speaker 1: the very Remember the very first out route. I don't

154
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:10,880
Speaker 1: know if you remember it, but uh, he was on

155
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 1: Trey Flower side and Kjum I couldn't tell he was

156
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,880
Speaker 1: trying to squeeze on the number two receiver, but it

157
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:19,840
Speaker 1: looked like he was supposed to work towards the out

158
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 1: and get underneath that outroute on the number one receiver,

159
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:24,920
Speaker 1: and he tapped his chest. It was my bad, Trey,

160
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 1: my bad. Well, guess what the next side he was

161
00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:30,120
Speaker 1: on the other side, he got underneath that one for Griffin.

162
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 1: It hit him right in the mits. He should have

163
00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:34,680
Speaker 1: had a pick. And then the play he made down

164
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 1: by the goal line. Actually it looked like Bobby got

165
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:41,160
Speaker 1: crost There's three wide receivers to our right, and Bobby

166
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:43,080
Speaker 1: was the middle guy and it looked like he got

167
00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,040
Speaker 1: cross face. So the guy came inside of Bobby. It

168
00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:49,240
Speaker 1: would have been a touchdown, and kJ was reading it beautiful.

169
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 1: He came up. Oh, put the diamond together up. Man,

170
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 1: put their hands up, man, the chapel, whatever you want

171
00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:00,160
Speaker 1: to steeple. I am in to go to practice us

172
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,600
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna go work with him work because there's

173
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 1: one thing. Look, there's wide receivers and coaches trying to

174
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:08,920
Speaker 1: teach them. It isn't the same. Okay, they're not throwing

175
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:12,600
Speaker 1: it to us. I gotta go get it, and there's

176
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 1: a different mindset and when you want picks. So I'm

177
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:18,640
Speaker 1: gonna go work with kJ on that. And he's playing phenomenal.

178
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:20,160
Speaker 1: All right, you go work with him. If it doesn't

179
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:21,960
Speaker 1: work out, I'll holler at him the next week, so

180
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 1: he probably have to holler at him, all right. Coming

181
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:28,200
Speaker 1: up next, we'll dive into the Seahawks Week five opponent

182
00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:31,040

187
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,800
Speaker 1: But right now we get to talk to Matt Caller, Matt,

188
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:56,200
Speaker 1: how are you doing today? I am doing very well.

189
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,880
Speaker 1: I can't wait for this game. I'm with you, man,

190
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:00,760
Speaker 1: I can't wait either. And you know I can't wait

191
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:04,280
Speaker 1: to ask you this question either, Matt. Every time I

192
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:06,959
Speaker 1: hear people talk about Kirk Cousins, is he's average, He's

193
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:10,480
Speaker 1: averaged with his win percentage, he's averaged with his tds

194
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:12,200
Speaker 1: and intercession. But then I look at the film and

195
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:14,760
Speaker 1: I'm like, hold up, this guy can spend the rock,

196
00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:17,360
Speaker 1: and he's a veteran. He makes good plays. What is

197
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 1: the overall feel of Kirk Cousins down there in Minnesota?

198
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 1: Up there in Minnesota should say, well, you know, I

199
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:26,080
Speaker 1: think after two weeks, and maybe even after three, even

200
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 1: though he played well against Tennessee, a lot of people

201
00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:32,000
Speaker 1: were talking about Trevor Lawrence, which I think tells you

202
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,880
Speaker 1: a little bit about how they feel about Kirk Cousins.

203
00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:37,600
Speaker 1: I don't think that anyone looks at Kirk Cousins and

204
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:41,359
Speaker 1: says he's a bad quarterback. But I think that there's

205
00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:44,760
Speaker 1: a conversation about whether you can win with some of

206
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 1: his limitation. So we've sort of followed over the last

207
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:51,080
Speaker 1: couple of years the kirk Cousins roller coaster, where it'll

208
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:53,840
Speaker 1: be a really good game against the bad team and

209
00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:57,040
Speaker 1: everyone gets excited, and then they face a big game

210
00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 1: against the good team and kirk Cousins comes up short. Now,

211
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 1: did win in New Orleans last year the playoffs and

212
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:06,120
Speaker 1: he played great, because there's credit for that. But aside

213
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:09,200
Speaker 1: from that, he's only beating two playoff teams in the

214
00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:11,640
Speaker 1: entire first two seasons that he's been there. And I

215
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:14,360
Speaker 1: think that that's where some of the frustration comes from,

216
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:16,400
Speaker 1: is that if he gets pressured up the middle, if

217
00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:19,120
Speaker 1: they're not running well, if Dalvin Cook, if there's a

218
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:22,240
Speaker 1: receiver out, or if anything is going against him kind

219
00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:24,720
Speaker 1: of you know, bouncing the wrong way, you don't expect

220
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,319
Speaker 1: kirk Cousin to make up for it. So well, he

221
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:30,280
Speaker 1: is very, very talented and could put up huge numbers.

222
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:32,720
Speaker 1: The question isn't really can he be good in the

223
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:35,560
Speaker 1: NFL and makes you competitive, it's can he gets you

224
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,120
Speaker 1: over the hump? And now, of course, this team at

225
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:40,080
Speaker 1: the moment is just trying to get back in the race.

226
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:43,080
Speaker 1: So that conversation, I guess we'll at least be put

227
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:45,920
Speaker 1: on hold unless he beat Seattle. You know, you look

228
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 1: on paper, My goodness, Dalvin Cook, I mean he is,

229
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:51,960
Speaker 1: he's a special player. Yeah, Kurt kovs and has just

230
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,080
Speaker 1: talked about Adam Thialan, who's always struck fear in me

231
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:59,199
Speaker 1: whenever we played them, you know, Kyle Rudolph, and then

232
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,920
Speaker 1: we put on the film and this justin Jefferson jumps

233
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:06,520
Speaker 1: out and he's beyond special. But this team has loaded,

234
00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:09,960
Speaker 1: but they're pretty far down the rankings offensively. Is it?

235
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,880
Speaker 1: Is it because occurred? What's the reason they're so far

236
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:16,720
Speaker 1: down offensively? With all this down? Yeah, I think if

237
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:20,200
Speaker 1: you watch the right and left guard, you'll see a

238
00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:23,080
Speaker 1: lot of issues there. Now, in Seattle, you have a

239
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:26,199
Speaker 1: quarterback who can make up for some offensive line deficiencies

240
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,320
Speaker 1: and has done that a lot during his career. But

241
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,080
Speaker 1: in Minnesota they don't have that type of quarterback. And

242
00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,680
Speaker 1: so the first two weeks I think was Gary Kubiak

243
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,600
Speaker 1: trying to figure out how he's going to work around

244
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:41,360
Speaker 1: the fact that the guards are so poor in past protection.

245
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:43,960
Speaker 1: And I would extend that to some extent to their

246
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:47,280
Speaker 1: center Gary Bradbury as well, who's been up and down. Basically,

247
00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:49,679
Speaker 1: if he faces someone really good, he's going to get

248
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 1: steamrolled on a weekly basis. And they really struggled in

249
00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:55,320
Speaker 1: those first two weeks with that a ton of pressure,

250
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,120
Speaker 1: and then even in weeks three, Kirk Cousins was pressured

251
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:00,920
Speaker 1: sixty percent of the time, but you know, was able

252
00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,520
Speaker 1: to make up for it and put up some big statistics.

253
00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:05,839
Speaker 1: But it's hard to get those guys a ball with

254
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,160
Speaker 1: so much pressure in his face, and I think that's

255
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:10,640
Speaker 1: what's been holding back the offense. So what we saw

256
00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:13,960
Speaker 1: last week was Gary Kubiak went old school and started

257
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:17,520
Speaker 1: doing max protect and sending out only two wide receivers.

258
00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:18,800
Speaker 1: And I think you're going to see a ton of

259
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 1: this on Sunday where Justin Jefferson and Adam Field were

260
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 1: the only guys going out, and so they were trying

261
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 1: to use a lot of play action, a lot of

262
00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:30,600
Speaker 1: run looks and things like that. Kyle Rudolph stayed in

263
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 1: and pass block the fourth most of any tight end

264
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:36,680
Speaker 1: in Week four, which you just don't expect that for

265
00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:39,959
Speaker 1: Kyle Rudolph, who caught eighty passes one season. But those

266
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:42,200
Speaker 1: are the adjustments that they're having to make. And I

267
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:44,960
Speaker 1: think that maybe even Gary Kubiak was caught off guard

268
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:46,559
Speaker 1: a little bit in the first couple of weeks of

269
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 1: the things that he was going to be limited by

270
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:53,040
Speaker 1: that offensive line. But now they're starting to figure it out. Well, Matt,

271
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:56,160
Speaker 1: these organizations have two things in common. The defense is

272
00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:59,400
Speaker 1: struggling at this point. Now do you guys have Yannick

273
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:01,960
Speaker 1: and got Quay that you picked up this year. You

274
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 1: have Eric Hendricks who's been doing his thing, but you

275
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:07,040
Speaker 1: lost Anthony Barr and Daniel Hurt. What are you seeing

276
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:09,360
Speaker 1: out of this defense that's really making them not perform

277
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:12,960
Speaker 1: the way that we're used to seeing. Yeah, and Kendricks

278
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:15,280
Speaker 1: has not practiced yet so far this week, so we're

279
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:17,719
Speaker 1: gonna find out tomorrow what his status is. And then

280
00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,360
Speaker 1: you know, Harrison FIfF got thrown out of the last

281
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:23,880
Speaker 1: game on a little little bit of a questionable penalpion

282
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:27,480
Speaker 1: and ejection on a hit. But uh, yeah, they've really

283
00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:31,200
Speaker 1: been devastated by injuries and you know, guys leaving, I mean,

284
00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:33,439
Speaker 1: this is not going to be the defense that you

285
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:35,199
Speaker 1: will remember. I think you guys will be watching the

286
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:38,079
Speaker 1: game on Sunday, Cohen, Who who is this guy? What?

287
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:42,520
Speaker 1: Because this is not you know, Xavier Gray Wallas and

288
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 1: all the you know Everson Griffins that you've seen for

289
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:48,160
Speaker 1: years against the Seattle So they have, you know, new

290
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:50,640
Speaker 1: cornerbacks across the board. You're going to see at least

291
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:53,800
Speaker 1: two rookies out there playing a cornerback, which could be

292
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:56,880
Speaker 1: a real issue against Russell Wilson and that group of weapons.

293
00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:00,439
Speaker 1: They've really really struggled to stop the run in the middle.

294
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:04,000
Speaker 1: They've pretty much been steamrolled because Michael Pierce opted out

295
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:06,559
Speaker 1: of this season and he's a star nose tackle and

296
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:10,720
Speaker 1: Mike Zimmer's defense really is built around that nose tackle position.

297
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 1: And you remember Lindvall Joseph and how important he was

298
00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:16,240
Speaker 1: when I was supposed to be Michael Pierce. But he

299
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 1: opts out. So now you're dealing with backup players all

300
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:22,000
Speaker 1: over the field. And if Kendricks camp play, he's gonna

301
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:25,840
Speaker 1: be talking about three starting backup linebackers, which could be

302
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:29,320
Speaker 1: a pretty serious issue. So this one just has shootout

303
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:32,720
Speaker 1: written all over it. It does, and we've seen those

304
00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:35,800
Speaker 1: every week. We scored over thirty points every game that

305
00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:38,520
Speaker 1: seems like every play comes down to the last play

306
00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:42,720
Speaker 1: for the Seahawks. Did you guys know about this Jefferson kid.

307
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:45,680
Speaker 1: I know, coming out of LSU and his first round pick,

308
00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:48,800
Speaker 1: and you know, people thought he was gonna be good,

309
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,120
Speaker 1: But did they think he was gonna be this good

310
00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:56,560
Speaker 1: this quick? Because I'm telling you, this guy's he's special. Yeah,

311
00:14:56,560 --> 00:15:01,560
Speaker 1: So in treating camp, we got that. We knew that

312
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:04,560
Speaker 1: it was a shortened training camp, no preseason, so it's

313
00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:06,640
Speaker 1: gonna be tough for him for maybe the first couple

314
00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:09,760
Speaker 1: of weeks. But it's pretty rare when it's all NFL

315
00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:12,280
Speaker 1: players out there in the same field and one guy's

316
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:15,440
Speaker 1: faster than everybody else and he just moves different and

317
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:18,880
Speaker 1: then just was able to make contorted catches and contested

318
00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:21,240
Speaker 1: catches at a different level than everybody else on the

319
00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:24,040
Speaker 1: field aside from Adam Fealand. But he's even faster than

320
00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:27,080
Speaker 1: Adam Deealand. And that's was pretty clear to just us

321
00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:30,000
Speaker 1: reporters standing on the sideline. So for us, it was

322
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:32,200
Speaker 1: always a matter of when he was going to break out,

323
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:35,160
Speaker 1: not if. And then in week three they had struggled

324
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:37,600
Speaker 1: so much for the first couple of weeks. They basically

325
00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:39,360
Speaker 1: just threw up their hands and said, all right, kid,

326
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:41,440
Speaker 1: it's time to go. And then he gets one hundred

327
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:44,360
Speaker 1: and seventy five yards. And the other thing about him,

328
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:47,560
Speaker 1: beyond his route running, which has been very impressive, he's

329
00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:50,600
Speaker 1: played outside receiver, which he didn't always do at LSU.

330
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 1: That's been really impressive. Down the field were contested catches,

331
00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:57,320
Speaker 1: but his personality has really impressed me. And after the

332
00:15:57,360 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 1: first game he had one hundred and seventy five yards

333
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:01,920
Speaker 1: and the game he was talking about one catch he

334
00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:05,240
Speaker 1: didn't make that he was frustrated about. And everything that

335
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:07,440
Speaker 1: they've said about him is the kid is obsessed with

336
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:10,680
Speaker 1: route running details that he has stuck himself to Adam

337
00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:13,520
Speaker 1: feeling and it basically followed him around, you know, like

338
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:15,600
Speaker 1: a little kid with his older brother and that kind

339
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:18,640
Speaker 1: of thing. And when you hear that, that's that's different

340
00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:21,080
Speaker 1: for a kid to have that type of maturity and

341
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:24,000
Speaker 1: to really know the path to being a superstar so

342
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:26,600
Speaker 1: quickly as opposed to having to find his way. And

343
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:29,400
Speaker 1: so my expectation is that he's going to continue doing

344
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:32,000
Speaker 1: this and that even though you know, the Vikings don't

345
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:34,440
Speaker 1: have to find Diggs anymore that they've replaced him with

346
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:38,560
Speaker 1: somebody who is very, very talented. All right, Matt Unique

347
00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:40,680
Speaker 1: and Goquay was a free agent full while I thought

348
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 1: that the Hawks might have a chance to get him,

349
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:44,480
Speaker 1: But you went up and stole him from us. You

350
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:47,680
Speaker 1: stall him. He has three sacks and two forest fumbles.

351
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:49,640
Speaker 1: What have you seen out of this guy thus far

352
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:53,720
Speaker 1: this season? So you know, he kind of reminds me

353
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:57,000
Speaker 1: a little bit of like a Mario Williams where you

354
00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:59,520
Speaker 1: won't see him and you won't really notice him, and

355
00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 1: then all of a sudden he makes a big play

356
00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:04,440
Speaker 1: that's a game changer. And that's what the Vikings need

357
00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:07,240
Speaker 1: out of this game with him. They need a strip sack.

358
00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:09,840
Speaker 1: And Russell Wilson does take sacks from time to time,

359
00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:12,960
Speaker 1: and got Way will get one or two plays where

360
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:16,280
Speaker 1: you're really blown away by him, but he's also limited.

361
00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:18,400
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think that he is like Everson

362
00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:21,920
Speaker 1: Griffin where he just dominates all the time throughout the game,

363
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:24,640
Speaker 1: where he's constantly driving your tackle back into the quarterback.

364
00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:27,520
Speaker 1: He's much more of a finesse rusher and if you're

365
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:30,800
Speaker 1: gonna run at him, that's probably gonna work out pretty well,

366
00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:33,120
Speaker 1: for you, he is not good at all in terms

367
00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:36,600
Speaker 1: of stopping the run, and I think as well as

368
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:38,840
Speaker 1: he's come up with a couple of really nice plays

369
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:42,040
Speaker 1: that top on film, maybe it's been a little disappointing

370
00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:45,000
Speaker 1: in terms of his all around play and maybe it

371
00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:47,840
Speaker 1: will kind of grow as he goes along. But you know,

372
00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:50,080
Speaker 1: if you're looking at the perspective of this year, in

373
00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:52,200
Speaker 1: this game, he could be a game changer for sure,

374
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:55,280
Speaker 1: and he has a special talent for strip sack and quarterbacks.

375
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:58,199
Speaker 1: But from the perspective of the long term, are you

376
00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:00,560
Speaker 1: going to pay this guy twenty million dollars a year

377
00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:03,439
Speaker 1: after the first four games? I'm I don't know. I'm

378
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 1: a little skeptical on that. And because of he's just

379
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 1: not really an all around player, so I expect Seattle

380
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:11,280
Speaker 1: to take advantage of that and to run towards his

381
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:14,320
Speaker 1: side quite a bit. Matt, you said you're excited about

382
00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:17,520
Speaker 1: this game, and we Russell Wilson is for us who

383
00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:20,720
Speaker 1: get to see him every single game over the last

384
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:25,640
Speaker 1: ten years, unbelievable. What's your thoughts going to this game?

385
00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:32,160
Speaker 1: Give me your prediction. My prediction is all sorts of points. Um.

386
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:35,160
Speaker 1: You know, what was it mister T who predicted pain,

387
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:40,000
Speaker 1: I will predict points. You know, I really do think

388
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:42,280
Speaker 1: that the Vikings are a different team over the last

389
00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:46,480
Speaker 1: two weeks, and I'm picking them mostly for entertainment purposes only,

390
00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:49,240
Speaker 1: Like I think Seattle is a better team all around,

391
00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:52,000
Speaker 1: but not having Jamal Adams in the mix. I mean,

392
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:55,120
Speaker 1: this one could be thirty one forty or something like that,

393
00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:58,520
Speaker 1: or you know, forty one thirty eight. I think that's

394
00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:01,080
Speaker 1: what we're looking at. And I'm also really rooting for

395
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:04,000
Speaker 1: that just as an enjoyer of football, like I would

396
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:06,239
Speaker 1: love to see them go back and forth Wilson and

397
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:09,119
Speaker 1: Cousins and Jefferson and DK Metcalf, you know, battle of

398
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:12,280
Speaker 1: young receivers. So I think we're looking at something exciting.

399
00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:16,200
Speaker 1: If I'm being reasonable, I'll say Seattle wins. But also

400
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:18,159
Speaker 1: the lad season is on the line here though, so

401
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:21,000
Speaker 1: if they get a win, it's huge for them going forward.

402
00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:22,879
Speaker 1: So they'll go in as a desperate team, and I

403
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:25,480
Speaker 1: do think they have a chance. You know what I wish.

404
00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:27,960
Speaker 1: I wish you weren't allowed to substitute. You had to

405
00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:31,120
Speaker 1: play both ways, and I would love to see Jefferson

406
00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:34,680
Speaker 1: and Metcalf go at each other, one playing corner one

407
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:39,080
Speaker 1: because they are both tough dudes, all right. And the

408
00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:43,760
Speaker 1: athleticism there's crazy. Man, Matthew, I appreciate you taking time

409
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:46,159
Speaker 1: out of your day. We'll see what happens this Sunday.

00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:49,000
Speaker 1: Have a good nice sir. Yeah, thanks for having me.

422
00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:34,000
Speaker 1: uh remember we did I don't know if you remember. Now,

423
00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:35,800
Speaker 1: you're a busy guy. We did one hundred yards with

424
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 1: Bumpers last year and I asked you I try to go, man,

425
00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:42,399
Speaker 1: what's your favorite route? And so serious looked me in

426
00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:45,280
Speaker 1: my eyes. Set the gold ball. That's all you do, baby,

427
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:47,600
Speaker 1: You go down the field, you cast the rock. You're

428
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 1: doing your thing. Man, I'm I'm excited for you. I'd

429
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 1: like to see you doing your thing. Coming into this camp.

430
00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:57,200
Speaker 1: There's a receiver competition. I mean they drafted, Um, Freddie Swain,

431
00:20:57,320 --> 00:20:59,080
Speaker 1: you got DK you have a locket over there. What

432
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:01,440
Speaker 1: was your mentality trying to solidify your spot on this

433
00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:07,040
Speaker 1: football team? I really looked. I really went into a

434
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:10,360
Speaker 1: looking at it like, hey man, we got some good

435
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:13,400
Speaker 1: old boys in this role. It's going to be one

436
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:15,720
Speaker 1: heck of a receiver for That's kind of just how

437
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:17,840
Speaker 1: I looked at it. I just I didn't really think

438
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:20,520
Speaker 1: of it as competition. I want to look at it

439
00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:26,760
Speaker 1: as all boys to get the same goal. And I

440
00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:29,600
Speaker 1: and I'm guessing competition it doesn't really matter. I mean,

441
00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:31,879
Speaker 1: you know you're on the team. You know right now,

442
00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:35,320
Speaker 1: you guys just pulling for each other. Um, I charted

443
00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 1: I can't remember it was the first game or second game.

444
00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:41,320
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson, you guys played and I charted him. And

445
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:45,520
Speaker 1: outside of a go route, there was not one pass

446
00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:48,960
Speaker 1: that a receiver had to extend his hands out to

447
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,400
Speaker 1: catch the ball. I mean, he pretty much hit everybody

448
00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:53,080
Speaker 1: in the numbers other unless it was a go route

449
00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:55,120
Speaker 1: and you had to extend your hands. Is there something

450
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:58,360
Speaker 1: going on different with Russell? I mean, he's obviously been phenomenal,

451
00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:00,960
Speaker 1: but make goodness, he's playing at a level that is

452
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:04,560
Speaker 1: one of the greats of all time right now. I

453
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:06,800
Speaker 1: don't know, not that I think he's been he's been

454
00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:08,760
Speaker 1: able to do this stuff. I think they're kind of

455
00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:11,719
Speaker 1: just opening up a little bit more of the passing

456
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:15,400
Speaker 1: side of it. Um so kind of get to see

457
00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:19,280
Speaker 1: really what he's got back there and really just airing

458
00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:23,080
Speaker 1: it out, which is pretty good to see. He's doing

459
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:28,399
Speaker 1: a fantastic job for you. And I asked this Freddie Swain.

460
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:30,920
Speaker 1: It was either a week or two ago. You know

461
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:33,560
Speaker 1: that you guys have designed plays and my guess is

462
00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:36,280
Speaker 1: obviously it's it's designed to go to a player or two,

463
00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 1: but you know, defense dictates. Is this a team that

464
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:43,560
Speaker 1: every play though you think I've got a shot of

465
00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:46,720
Speaker 1: getting the ball, does does Russell say, hey, everybody's live

466
00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:50,200
Speaker 1: in this play? Yeah? For sure. We always started to

467
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:53,360
Speaker 1: go it too, so like everybody's sure gonna be long.

468
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:55,520
Speaker 1: He has his reads and stuff like that, but you

469
00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:57,000
Speaker 1: never know what the ball's gonna go at the end

470
00:22:57,040 --> 00:23:00,320
Speaker 1: of the day, is what they say. So yeah, running

471
00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:03,040
Speaker 1: like you getting the ball, it's supposedly you might end

472
00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:05,639
Speaker 1: up with it. Okay, So let me talk about that

473
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:08,879
Speaker 1: play right before the half last week. Was that designed

474
00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:12,720
Speaker 1: to go to you? Or you would just all said

475
00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:14,879
Speaker 1: he breaks the pocket and a little bit of a

476
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:20,639
Speaker 1: bus at coverage and you're there, So really that yeah,

477
00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:24,159
Speaker 1: it I wouldn't say it was designed for me. It

478
00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:27,240
Speaker 1: was a design to really try to get the ball

479
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:30,920
Speaker 1: to the middle of the field and get some yards quick.

480
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:35,120
Speaker 1: But with Greg running his route and the way our

481
00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:40,600
Speaker 1: spaces was set up, yeah, the coverage busted. It kind

482
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:43,960
Speaker 1: of just helped me out. Really, you know what to

483
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:46,840
Speaker 1: get outside the now? Im one? You know what's been

484
00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:49,200
Speaker 1: interesting David this year? And sorry I'm hogging all the

485
00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:52,720
Speaker 1: questions for my my buddy, who's the wide receiver? Um,

486
00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:55,679
Speaker 1: there seems like there is a lot of bus and

487
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,680
Speaker 1: the teams you're playing, and I don't think that's by accident.

488
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:02,560
Speaker 1: I mean the play against the Cowboys and New England,

489
00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:04,720
Speaker 1: I want to say the one where Tyler locket, it

490
00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:07,560
Speaker 1: looked like maybe they're expecting a deep cross and all

491
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:11,040
Speaker 1: senden he busts to the post. As a lot of

492
00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:13,760
Speaker 1: these busts are just by design, you guys see going

493
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:15,520
Speaker 1: into the game that, Hey, we think this is what

494
00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:19,880
Speaker 1: they're gonna do, and we're gonna play off of that exactly. Yeah,

495
00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:22,080
Speaker 1: for sure, that's kind of how we go in at

496
00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:26,119
Speaker 1: the game plan and shoot, they say play fast and

497
00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:28,600
Speaker 1: that's what really gets people on the toes and less

498
00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:33,200
Speaker 1: defenses up, move around, confuse him a little bit. Yeah,

499
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:36,439
Speaker 1: that's pretty much the game plan. Hey, David, one of

500
00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:38,840
Speaker 1: the things that impresses me the most about you is

501
00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:41,680
Speaker 1: your body control. I mean, both of your touchdowns this year,

502
00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:45,160
Speaker 1: you've showed complete awareness and body control. Is that something

503
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:47,359
Speaker 1: that's always been a part of your game or is

504
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:51,000
Speaker 1: that something that's developed over the years. I would say

505
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 1: I've always pretty good ball. I'm buding control growing up

506
00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:58,160
Speaker 1: and then yeah, graduate, as you get older, you get

507
00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:00,520
Speaker 1: better out and say, but the more you practice it,

508
00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:05,760
Speaker 1: y'all say, I would say I had body control, butts

509
00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:11,000
Speaker 1: is getting better. You you had a jet sweep last game,

510
00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:13,960
Speaker 1: you had an edge defender on skates, snatched his ankles,

511
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:18,480
Speaker 1: got some yards after that, defender, what was your what's

512
00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 1: your phone blowing up after that? Because I know, man,

513
00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:22,320
Speaker 1: when I made plays, my boards were texting me and

514
00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 1: how I mean, what was that that postgame like? After that? Uh? Yeah,

515
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:32,280
Speaker 1: my guys in yelp from back home for sure talking

516
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:37,159
Speaker 1: about talking about how I did buddy wrong. But I

517
00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:39,720
Speaker 1: was just like, yeas what I thought? He was smashed.

518
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:44,520
Speaker 1: I thought he's for sure going to kill me. But yeah,

519
00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:48,359
Speaker 1: I had to make some kind of move some so

520
00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:52,720
Speaker 1: there's a go ahead. Damn. Sorry, No, I was just

521
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:54,320
Speaker 1: gonna say, yeah, they were, they were for sure. You

522
00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:58,360
Speaker 1: kN about that. That's the fun. That's the fun part.

523
00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:00,840
Speaker 1: May he playing the NFL and and people think it's

524
00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:03,600
Speaker 1: bigger in life, and then you get pulled down to

525
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,680
Speaker 1: being humble in the reality and your your old friends

526
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:11,359
Speaker 1: you hung out with start dogging on on text and Twitter.

527
00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:16,280
Speaker 1: Keep you humble, that no doubt, that's the greatest for sure.

528
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:20,199
Speaker 1: Let me ask you a question on this. There's a

529
00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:23,840
Speaker 1: statistic about you guys motion more than any team in

530
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:28,040
Speaker 1: the NFL. How does that play in Is that something

531
00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:31,320
Speaker 1: that's designed every day or the For the most part,

532
00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:37,080
Speaker 1: the motions already set with you know, your your basic calls. Uh,

533
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:42,240
Speaker 1: sometimes it's said what's called, but the majority of Thomas

534
00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:46,159
Speaker 1: just to see what's the defense and man staring manson

535
00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:53,240
Speaker 1: or whatever, dinner decent skin, take yourself out a little

536
00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:57,679
Speaker 1: bit more seeing struggling with us, who's staying or you

537
00:26:57,720 --> 00:26:59,840
Speaker 1: know what I mean, see if they're rolling back or whatever.

538
00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:04,639
Speaker 1: Here's an even more important question, David, what happened to

539
00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:06,960
Speaker 1: the wide receiver dances? Knew you were going with that question.

540
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:11,639
Speaker 1: We we miss it. Man, what's up with the dances coming?

541
00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:18,520
Speaker 1: Dang is I've been trying to get these boys on

542
00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:23,120
Speaker 1: top of it, but it's just like, I guess it's

543
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:27,119
Speaker 1: just kind of wow. Right now with COVID, we're not

544
00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:31,440
Speaker 1: really thinking about it. I don't know, but hopefully hopefully

545
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,800
Speaker 1: we kind of settled out and kind of get them

546
00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:38,159
Speaker 1: on hers together. Thank you some Hobey, we can get

547
00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:41,320
Speaker 1: you off on Sunday. Well. So, so here's the thing.

548
00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:45,719
Speaker 1: So I saw a clip where Tyler Lockett was miked up,

549
00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:49,120
Speaker 1: and uh, I can't remember who asked me. He said,

550
00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:50,760
Speaker 1: how come you're not doing any damn baby. It might

551
00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:53,200
Speaker 1: have been Digs or Adams, and he said, why aren't

552
00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:56,760
Speaker 1: you doing the dances? And hecaus, uh, I'm trying to.

553
00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:01,120
Speaker 1: I don't know if he said intimidates or or make

554
00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:04,280
Speaker 1: them fearful of us. I think it was making them

555
00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:07,840
Speaker 1: fearful of us. You know Tyler, and you know his

556
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:10,120
Speaker 1: his size. I don't know how much fear, but he does.

557
00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:17,480
Speaker 1: I'm not saying you're small. I'm saying he's slight, but no,

558
00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:20,439
Speaker 1: but fear is route running. I just thought it was

559
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:23,040
Speaker 1: kind of funny that and also I think it also

560
00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:26,040
Speaker 1: says something how focused you guys are and what he's

561
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:28,760
Speaker 1: thinking about, goes luk Man, this is this is super

562
00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:33,560
Speaker 1: Bowl time. I would say that's kind of I think

563
00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:35,560
Speaker 1: that's kind of like the bigger reasons we all been

564
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:39,520
Speaker 1: pretty focused on really just like kind of dialed in,

565
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:44,280
Speaker 1: so we hadn't really thought about dances. I'm sure thing

566
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:47,600
Speaker 1: goes on and things are still going good and stuff

567
00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:52,000
Speaker 1: like that. It'll come around, but it's still getting out

568
00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:53,640
Speaker 1: of the season. We just feel like we just got

569
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:55,920
Speaker 1: out of training camp like two weeks ago. It's kind

570
00:28:55,920 --> 00:29:00,320
Speaker 1: of weird, you know, it's all all so yeah, sure,

571
00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:03,240
Speaker 1: I think that's why dance. I'm coming in. I'm gonna

572
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:06,920
Speaker 1: I'm gonna email texts. You had a really good choreographic

Speaker 1: Swag covering them. Next, we're gonna go across the NFL

587
00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:51,080
Speaker 1: with no other than John Clayton, the Professor right here

588
00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:58,640
Speaker 1: on Hawks Live, Hawks Slive from seven and nine Live

589
00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:03,960
Speaker 1: on Air seven Chann ESPN Sea Hawk Slide with Me,

590
00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:07,320
Speaker 1: Michael Bombas and Paul Morier every Thursday at seven o'clock

591
00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:10,040
Speaker 1: right here on seven ten ESPN, and we are in

592
00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:13,160
Speaker 1: Century Link. Jay Ce. We didn't get no funk for

593
00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:15,480
Speaker 1: you today, though. How are you doing good? Hey? We

594
00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:18,280
Speaker 1: want more funk. We'd love funk. Funk is the best.

595
00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:20,040
Speaker 1: Funk is the best. What do you think of this

596
00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:23,440
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay Chicago game so far? Should it be this close? Yeah?

597
00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:25,160
Speaker 1: Because I tell you what I mean. You can see

598
00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:28,240
Speaker 1: some holes in both teams. You can see Nick Foles

599
00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:31,000
Speaker 1: overthrowing guys deep and I mean some of the worst

600
00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:33,920
Speaker 1: throws on wide open deep throws we've seen this year.

601
00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:36,400
Speaker 1: And you can also see that the offensive line is

602
00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:39,800
Speaker 1: starting to collapse around Tom Brady because particularly in that

603
00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:43,080
Speaker 1: last series, I mean, they got to him pretty well,

604
00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:44,960
Speaker 1: and it's now got to the point where they're getting

605
00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:47,560
Speaker 1: a bunch of holding calls and everything else. And so

606
00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:50,520
Speaker 1: this is this is interesting game right now. You know

607
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:52,840
Speaker 1: that Tampa Bay came in they were a little undermanned

608
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:57,680
Speaker 1: at the skilled positions because Chris Godwin was inactive and

609
00:30:57,920 --> 00:30:59,800
Speaker 1: you know O. J. Howard had the Achilles tear and

610
00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:02,800
Speaker 1: he's out for the year. Leonard for Nett, you know,

611
00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:04,719
Speaker 1: they were down with him. I mean he's just an

612
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:07,960
Speaker 1: emergency running back. And Lashawn McCoy, I mean he was

613
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 1: inactive and so you can see that. I mean, Brady

614
00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:13,800
Speaker 1: is doing good things. Fols is doing a lot of

615
00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:17,000
Speaker 1: underneath stuff. Pretty good football game. You know, John they

616
00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:19,880
Speaker 1: used to say Chuck Knox, he say, don't tell me

617
00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:21,880
Speaker 1: how to rough the water. Let's just bring the boat in.

618
00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:24,719
Speaker 1: I don't want to hear about all those other teams injuries.

619
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:26,480
Speaker 1: I want to talk about our injuries. Yeah, I have

620
00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 1: a wish list I need. I need Dunbar healthy, got it.

621
00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:33,600
Speaker 1: I would like to have Adams healthy, But but I

622
00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:37,760
Speaker 1: can go another buye week until then. So give me

623
00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:42,320
Speaker 1: a nice little injury happy Thursday report. Honestly, because we

624
00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:45,040
Speaker 1: had what there was. Seahawks had four guys that didn't

625
00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,280
Speaker 1: practice today, and there's a good chance that you're not

626
00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:49,040
Speaker 1: going to see any of the four. You know, Nico

627
00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:51,320
Speaker 1: Thorpe probably has a core injury that could be a

628
00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:53,240
Speaker 1: season ender if he has to go to Philadelphia and

629
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:55,680
Speaker 1: get the surgery. Then Jamal Adams is going to miss

630
00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:57,840
Speaker 1: this week. You know, Jordan Brooks is going to miss

631
00:31:57,880 --> 00:31:59,840
Speaker 1: this week, and so you know, you can kind of

632
00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:02,320
Speaker 1: scratch that, and then you kind of get a negative

633
00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:05,440
Speaker 1: feeling right now as far as Leno Hill Leano Hill,

634
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:07,640
Speaker 1: because again that back wasn't any better and he wasn't

635
00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:10,760
Speaker 1: able to practice today. So with the fact that there's

636
00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:12,600
Speaker 1: a bye week, you know they're gonna be a little

637
00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:15,160
Speaker 1: extra cautious and maybe buy an extra week for everybody

638
00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:17,880
Speaker 1: to get healthy. Because what you're gonna understand, it's like, Okay,

639
00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 1: you evaluate the talent that's there, and you say, you

640
00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:24,120
Speaker 1: got Minnesota coming in. They're a beatable team, but it's

641
00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:26,640
Speaker 1: still a dangerous team. But also coming out of the

642
00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:29,720
Speaker 1: bye week, there's more important games because you've got Arizona,

643
00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:32,600
Speaker 1: San Francisco, you got division games, and so you want

644
00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:34,960
Speaker 1: to try to make sure that you're the healthiest for

645
00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:37,240
Speaker 1: the division games because in many ways they might be

646
00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:39,600
Speaker 1: the toughest. Do you have in a good portion of

647
00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:41,760
Speaker 1: the rest of the season. Yeah, we got some tough

648
00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:44,520
Speaker 1: running games coming up against San Francisco. We still got

649
00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:46,800
Speaker 1: to play them twice, the Rams twice or some other

650
00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:49,600
Speaker 1: teams that pantas. So this isn't an injury question, But

651
00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:52,640
Speaker 1: I do want to talk about Damon Snacks Harrison. What's

652
00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:54,480
Speaker 1: the status? Say I? Know they put him up practice

653
00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:57,840
Speaker 1: while we get why, but when will he be eligible

654
00:32:57,880 --> 00:32:59,719
Speaker 1: to come and play him when do you expect him too? Well,

655
00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:01,920
Speaker 1: he's eligible to be able to come up and go

656
00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:04,680
Speaker 1: right now. It's just a matter. It's like, okay, is

657
00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:06,440
Speaker 1: that going to be the right thing to do. He's

658
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:08,680
Speaker 1: been on the practice field now for two days. If

659
00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:11,160
Speaker 1: they see that, you know there's enough there. They have

660
00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:12,880
Speaker 1: the simple thing that they can bring them up from

661
00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:15,480
Speaker 1: the practice squad. It doesn't eat up a roster spot

662
00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:17,800
Speaker 1: because they have the extra roster spot and so they

663
00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:20,960
Speaker 1: can do that without having to release anybody. And so

664
00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:23,560
Speaker 1: you know, you figure, if anything, maybe he can help

665
00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:26,400
Speaker 1: out for ten to fifteen to twenty plays and helping

666
00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:28,440
Speaker 1: the run stopping if they need it against Alvin Cooks.

667
00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:30,680
Speaker 1: That's always think that could be an option right there.

668
00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:33,000
Speaker 1: And of course you know you figure Damarious Randall is

669
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:35,240
Speaker 1: going to be taken and brought up if Plano Hill's

670
00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:36,960
Speaker 1: not going to be able to play. So those could

671
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:38,920
Speaker 1: be the couple of moves that they can make you

672
00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:41,600
Speaker 1: on Saturday to get them on the roster. And then

673
00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:43,760
Speaker 1: right after the bye week, then you find a way

674
00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:46,680
Speaker 1: to get Snacks Harrison on the full roster so you

675
00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:49,080
Speaker 1: can get him ready for Arizona and in San Francisco.

676
00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:52,080
Speaker 1: All right, John, I'm leaving the organization. I'm going out

677
00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:54,520
Speaker 1: east the Buffalo Bills. I haven't believed in this as

678
00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:56,600
Speaker 1: Jim Kelly was the quarterback and all of a sudden

679
00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:59,160
Speaker 1: they're four and oh they'd beating the Jets, Dolphins, the Rams,

680
00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:02,200
Speaker 1: the Raiders. Josh Allen is performing at a high level.

681
00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:05,280
Speaker 1: Is it time that the nation buys into what these

682
00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:07,640
Speaker 1: guys are doing? If everybody, if you don't buy in,

683
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:10,600
Speaker 1: you're you're missing something because you know, even though this

684
00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:13,279
Speaker 1: is a year still where you know, defense is still

685
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:14,960
Speaker 1: hard to be able to catch up, and Buffalo is

686
00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:17,719
Speaker 1: giving up more points than they have since John McDermott

687
00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:20,320
Speaker 1: has been there, you know, it's still a good defense.

688
00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:23,000
Speaker 1: They got the pass rush, they got the secondary, they

689
00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:26,480
Speaker 1: got everything going. But now Josh Allen is going and

690
00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:28,360
Speaker 1: he's playing. I mean, you can start to make the

691
00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:31,839
Speaker 1: argument when you're talking MVP. You know, it's Russell Wilson one,

692
00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:35,280
Speaker 1: and then you go Aaron Rodgers too, maybe Patrick mahomes

693
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:38,480
Speaker 1: number three, but Josh Allen's probably number four. I mean,

694
00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:41,160
Speaker 1: he's taken an offense that when he started in the

695
00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:44,000
Speaker 1: previous years he never did better than nineteen point two

696
00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:46,360
Speaker 1: two points a game. Now he's up to like twenty

697
00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:49,400
Speaker 1: eight twenty nine points. He's got Stefan Diggs able to

698
00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:51,640
Speaker 1: get the ball deep to him, and so you know,

699
00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:54,120
Speaker 1: they got the deep passes, they still got some running,

700
00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:58,800
Speaker 1: they did a decent offensive line. This team's legit embarrassment

701
00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:01,520
Speaker 1: of riches at why receiver of the Seahawks right now?

702
00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:04,560
Speaker 1: Obviously you know DK and Tyler and I think you

703
00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:08,719
Speaker 1: know David Morris played well, what is Philip Dorset? Does

704
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:11,279
Speaker 1: he get back here this year? And if he does,

705
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:14,920
Speaker 1: does he does he contribute? He does? But right now,

706
00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:17,400
Speaker 1: as strange as it sounds, and again, they signed him

707
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:19,320
Speaker 1: for the minimum, so it's not like there's a major

708
00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:22,440
Speaker 1: monetary commitment to him. You know, he might be the

709
00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:25,520
Speaker 1: fifth receiver because of that foot injury, because it's pretty

710
00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:28,560
Speaker 1: clear David Moore has established himself as the number three

711
00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:31,080
Speaker 1: and Freddie swayin he's getting better and better every week,

712
00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:34,160
Speaker 1: so he's number four. So Dorset could be number five.

713
00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:37,279
Speaker 1: But still, I mean, if your number five receiver can

714
00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:40,719
Speaker 1: do a four, three, three forty and get downfield, that's

715
00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:43,480
Speaker 1: not a bad thing. So they're they're they're the richest

716
00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:46,359
Speaker 1: on the wide receiving corps, which does help. And again

717
00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:48,560
Speaker 1: getting doors set back. You know, again, if it's going

718
00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:50,680
Speaker 1: to be this week, he was limited in practice today,

719
00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:55,319
Speaker 1: that could help. John Offenses have been lighting up the

720
00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:58,600
Speaker 1: scoreboard this year in the NFL, teams that score thirty

721
00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:01,960
Speaker 1: points fifty one times season. Do you see this trend

722
00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:04,000
Speaker 1: continuing or do you feel like the defenses are going

723
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:05,640
Speaker 1: to catch up and slow this thing down? Now? I

724
00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:08,200
Speaker 1: think it's going to continue because again you can see

725
00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:10,200
Speaker 1: now we'll see how it goes week to week with

726
00:36:10,239 --> 00:36:14,279
Speaker 1: the holding penalties. You know, tonight Kemp the referee, he's

727
00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:17,200
Speaker 1: called about four holding penalties, but so far since this

728
00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:20,240
Speaker 1: season started is only one hundred and twenty five holding

729
00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:22,960
Speaker 1: penalties called and one or two marched off. And so

730
00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:26,320
Speaker 1: what that does it gives the quarterbacks and the offense

731
00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:29,400
Speaker 1: more rhythm because now you're not facing first and twenty

732
00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:32,760
Speaker 1: second and fifteen. You can get a rhythm going on offense.

733
00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:36,120
Speaker 1: And now what you have is eighteen quarterbacks on pace

734
00:36:36,200 --> 00:36:38,640
Speaker 1: to be able to throw for more than four thousand

735
00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:43,000
Speaker 1: yards this year, and we're seeing incredible numbers coming in

736
00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:45,960
Speaker 1: as far as the quarterbacks, and so I mean the

737
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:48,440
Speaker 1: ratings and the quarterbacks is higher than ever. I mean

738
00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:51,320
Speaker 1: you can see the yards, the points, all those different things,

739
00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:54,239
Speaker 1: and so you put that all together. I don't necessarily

740
00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:56,920
Speaker 1: see a changing because the game is now set up,

741
00:36:57,040 --> 00:36:59,840
Speaker 1: both with officiating and also with the fact that defense

742
00:36:59,920 --> 00:37:01,480
Speaker 1: is are behind now again no catch up to a

743
00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:04,520
Speaker 1: little bit. But if you're in the NFC, you're it's

744
00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:06,359
Speaker 1: going to have to go through this all year. That's

745
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:08,520
Speaker 1: why I keep on saying, if you're looking at the

746
00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:13,040
Speaker 1: Seahawks stats, ignore them, because every team in the NFC

747
00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:15,000
Speaker 1: is going through the same things. I mean, you've got

748
00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:18,839
Speaker 1: twenty seven points a game plus coming out of NFC offenses,

749
00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:21,560
Speaker 1: and a lot of that's because you've got thirteen quarterbacks

750
00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:24,640
Speaker 1: that are experienced. Twelve of them are making over twenty

751
00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:27,320
Speaker 1: one million dollars a year, and eleven have been to

752
00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:29,120
Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl. And the only two that haven't been

753
00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:31,480
Speaker 1: or two quarterbacks who once went to the Super Bowl,

754
00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:35,480
Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo and Nick Foles. No, John, I actually like

755
00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:38,239
Speaker 1: the and I'm a defensive guy. I like the less

756
00:37:38,360 --> 00:37:41,759
Speaker 1: holding calls. Look, if it's agreed just you call that thing.

757
00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:44,440
Speaker 1: I think the ten yard penalty putting people back in

758
00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:47,880
Speaker 1: a first and twenty or second and twenty, it's just

759
00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:50,200
Speaker 1: a game change. And it's not even that it also

760
00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:53,759
Speaker 1: takes if there's a completed pass, you know, then it's

761
00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:56,319
Speaker 1: even a bigger penalty. Right, you make a twenty yard

762
00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:59,840
Speaker 1: and you're that's a thirty yard penalty. So I actually

763
00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:03,040
Speaker 1: and I'm fine with it moving forward. So I'm gonna

764
00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:05,759
Speaker 1: ask you this question again, what do you what have

765
00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:08,680
Speaker 1: you not been asked this week? John? What's out there

766
00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:11,920
Speaker 1: that's interesting that we don't know about? Well, we know

767
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:14,240
Speaker 1: that certainly, we you know, talk about the bad situation

768
00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:18,000
Speaker 1: with the Tennessee Titans. Uh. You know what I haven't

769
00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:21,160
Speaker 1: been asked about yet is you know, what has been

770
00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:25,080
Speaker 1: the status of the coaches that are on the hot seat?

771
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:28,000
Speaker 1: And what's amazing to think that we already got Bill

772
00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:30,759
Speaker 1: O'Brien fired early in the week. All right, so he's

773
00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:32,960
Speaker 1: the first. I look at six other coaches that we

774
00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:36,400
Speaker 1: put together the Bill O'Brien numbers, it's like those coaches

775
00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:40,359
Speaker 1: are four and eighteen, four and eighteen, and they're all

776
00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:43,640
Speaker 1: drafting into top ten. So at this stage, there's at

777
00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:47,279
Speaker 1: least seven coaches fired either during the season or after

778
00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:50,239
Speaker 1: the season, and so nobody's asked about that. So that's

779
00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:52,839
Speaker 1: one that nobody's asked about. And then the other thing

780
00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:56,200
Speaker 1: is just the scoring on offense as far as how

781
00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:59,520
Speaker 1: pronounced it is, particularly in the NFC, you know, with

782
00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:01,640
Speaker 1: a fifty one games where there's been over thirty points

783
00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:04,520
Speaker 1: scored in those games, it's remarkable. And the other thing

784
00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:07,239
Speaker 1: to have been asked about is the fourth quarter comebacks

785
00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:09,279
Speaker 1: because you know, because of the fact that they're not

786
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:12,360
Speaker 1: calling the holding penalties, you get rhythm coming back. Is

787
00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:14,839
Speaker 1: that you know, you've now got you know, so many

788
00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:17,799
Speaker 1: quarterbacks having big numbers in the fourth quarter, and there's

789
00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:20,680
Speaker 1: been twenty one, twenty two games that have had fourth

790
00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:24,640
Speaker 1: quarter comebacks to win. John they they they mocked me

791
00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:27,839
Speaker 1: a week ago for asking that two weeks in a row.

792
00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:31,880
Speaker 1: It's been my favorite moment. Yeah, that was really good stuff.

793
00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:35,280
Speaker 1: I appreciate. I appreciate that thing. Yeah, John Planning symbol

794
00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:38,879
Speaker 1: who is the best team in the National Football League today? Uh,

795
00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:41,960
Speaker 1: you know you at the moment, you'd have to say Seattle,

796
00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:44,799
Speaker 1: even though the defense is giving up you know, too

797
00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:46,719
Speaker 1: many yards. But again the yards are kind of their

798
00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:49,759
Speaker 1: throwaways because again they've had four games with double digit

799
00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:52,200
Speaker 1: leads in the fourth quarter. And you know, say what

800
00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:54,600
Speaker 1: you want about Kansas City, they're great. I mean, Pat,

801
00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:56,840
Speaker 1: you can still make the argument that Patrick Mahomes maybe

802
00:39:56,880 --> 00:40:00,239
Speaker 1: better overall than Russell Wilson, but not this year. I mean,

803
00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:02,600
Speaker 1: because Russell Wilson is having one of the greatest stretches

804
00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:05,480
Speaker 1: of quarterback play we have ever seen in this league.

805
00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:09,600
Speaker 1: Six sixteen touchdown passes in four games, you know, almost

806
00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:13,560
Speaker 1: as many touchdown passes as completions. It's incredible. But you'll

807
00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:16,200
Speaker 1: look at Kansas City as great as it is for them.

808
00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:18,200
Speaker 1: You know, they're so only scoring like twenty eight twenty

809
00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:20,600
Speaker 1: nine points a game, where Seattle's like scoring like what

810
00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:24,840
Speaker 1: thirty seven points? All right, John, we appreciate your insight

811
00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:29,080
Speaker 1: as always, Keep it funky and I'll talk to you soon, Okays,

812
00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:31,919
Speaker 1: All right, John, have a good night. All right, another week,

821
00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:01,319
Speaker 1: get to talk. That talk my favorite part of the show. Right.

822
00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:03,640
Speaker 1: I enjoyed this that when I have Clayton and the

823
00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:06,880
Speaker 1: posing preview and when we open up. But this is

824
00:41:07,120 --> 00:41:09,520
Speaker 1: so all this segments prior to Okay, this is my

825
00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:12,680
Speaker 1: favorite part. So what we saw, what we need to see.

826
00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:15,920
Speaker 1: What we saw, I'll tell you. I saw an offense

827
00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:18,759
Speaker 1: that is starting to open up. In the run game,

828
00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:22,279
Speaker 1: Chris Carson had sixteen carries for eighty yards. I saw

829
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:24,920
Speaker 1: DJ Dallas get a couple of carries and I really

830
00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:26,760
Speaker 1: like what I saw at him. He had four touches,

831
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:29,640
Speaker 1: but every touch he had I was like, Ooh. As

832
00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:31,719
Speaker 1: one who plays, I'm like, oh, I'm grabbing something like

833
00:41:31,760 --> 00:41:34,680
Speaker 1: oh what this young guy has some talent. He caught

834
00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:38,040
Speaker 1: the rock, he ran the rock. I see receivers who

835
00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:40,400
Speaker 1: can get it done. I saw DK catch a smoke

836
00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:42,920
Speaker 1: screen and make a guy miss. A guy his size

837
00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:45,279
Speaker 1: shouldn't make guys miss. He just runs through them. He

838
00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:47,959
Speaker 1: showed like, okay, if I need to thirty three yard,

839
00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:51,279
Speaker 1: we're on three a little hitcher out. You know. No,

840
00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:55,160
Speaker 1: it probably wasn't a yard throw. I was smoke. He

841
00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:57,440
Speaker 1: took one step, turned around, got it to him, made

842
00:41:57,440 --> 00:41:58,920
Speaker 1: a guy miss, got a fine. I think that was

843
00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:03,600
Speaker 1: RPL on that. I think, so yeah, I think we're

844
00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:05,440
Speaker 1: gonna play this one. Later, I started to watch more

845
00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:09,920
Speaker 1: and more. Man that whole thing. Everybody's blocking downfield, the receivers,

846
00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:13,279
Speaker 1: the offensive lineman. I watched Dwayne Brown at the end

847
00:42:13,719 --> 00:42:16,680
Speaker 1: kind of look back like what you know? So yeah,

848
00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:19,480
Speaker 1: and that the one person who knew it was coming

849
00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:22,520
Speaker 1: to him was obviously Russell and DK I guess two people.

850
00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:24,759
Speaker 1: So I think it was an RPO though. That's the

851
00:42:24,760 --> 00:42:28,000
Speaker 1: great thing about RPOs is that no one knows what's

852
00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:30,439
Speaker 1: going to happen. Therefore, you just do what the play

853
00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:32,719
Speaker 1: says to do, Like you go ahead, you block this guy,

854
00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:35,040
Speaker 1: you get there, you turn around, you look for the football.

855
00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:37,640
Speaker 1: The only person who really knows what's going on is

856
00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:40,120
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson. That's probably how you have to coach like

857
00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:42,960
Speaker 1: six seventh graders, right, you just do what you're supposed

858
00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:44,640
Speaker 1: to do. Don't worry about anything else. We're doing that

859
00:42:44,719 --> 00:42:46,920
Speaker 1: play later, right, Yeah, So we'll talk about it because

860
00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:48,960
Speaker 1: there's some stuff to that that I saw. Let me

861
00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:51,120
Speaker 1: ask you this, and we're talking about till the offense.

862
00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:55,760
Speaker 1: How good is this whole line? And give me maybe

863
00:42:55,800 --> 00:43:01,799
Speaker 1: go back to twenty thirteen, two thousand five and just

864
00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:04,480
Speaker 1: talk to me about this. I was asked this question

865
00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:08,800
Speaker 1: earlier this week, and I say, the offensive line and

866
00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:12,239
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson, it's a group project. I feel like now

867
00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:14,640
Speaker 1: in a group project, you have that one kid who's

868
00:43:14,680 --> 00:43:17,440
Speaker 1: gonna study, who's gonna lead the charge's gonna organize it.

869
00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:19,560
Speaker 1: He's going to be the talker. That's Russell Wilson, and

870
00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:22,040
Speaker 1: you have the other guys who aren't good at something

871
00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:24,960
Speaker 1: and they just contribute. Now, this offensive line is playing

872
00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:28,080
Speaker 1: better than previous years. But I also feel like Russell

873
00:43:28,120 --> 00:43:31,399
Speaker 1: Wilson is such in control of the group project that

874
00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:34,000
Speaker 1: he makes them look better than what they really are.

875
00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:36,560
Speaker 1: They are better than last year. Now the bar was

876
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:39,080
Speaker 1: set pretty low last year, but they are better than

877
00:43:39,160 --> 00:43:41,640
Speaker 1: last year. But I think Russell Wilson makes it go.

878
00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:45,400
Speaker 1: And I think that the contributions from the old line

879
00:43:45,719 --> 00:43:48,960
Speaker 1: are going to start getting greater and greater every single week.

880
00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:51,560
Speaker 1: I think they've been playing better, so I'll make expand

881
00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:55,080
Speaker 1: on that. All right, you say they're better than last year,

882
00:43:55,080 --> 00:43:58,640
Speaker 1: but he kind of like not that much better. But

883
00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:04,279
Speaker 1: break it down run game, pass protection. I mean right now,

884
00:44:04,320 --> 00:44:07,840
Speaker 1: I mean Russell's averaging there like three point one seconds

885
00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:12,000
Speaker 1: throw or something that it's ridiculous at times. So just

886
00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:14,960
Speaker 1: break it down. Run last year, pass this year. All right,

887
00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:18,880
Speaker 1: when it comes to pass this year, his right side

888
00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:21,520
Speaker 1: I feels a lot more secure than it was last year.

889
00:44:22,239 --> 00:44:26,040
Speaker 1: I feel like Russell is stepping up in the pocket

890
00:44:26,040 --> 00:44:27,560
Speaker 1: and he's keeping his eyes down to feel like a

891
00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:30,040
Speaker 1: veteran quarterback. But I feel like that right side feels

892
00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:32,600
Speaker 1: pretty good. That left side is gonna be fine. Wayne Brown,

893
00:44:32,640 --> 00:44:35,399
Speaker 1: you potty, as long as he's healthy, he's good to go. Now,

894
00:44:35,440 --> 00:44:37,160
Speaker 1: as far as the run game goes, I don't think

895
00:44:37,160 --> 00:44:40,000
Speaker 1: we've even seen what they're really capable of doing because

896
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:42,120
Speaker 1: they haven't really asked these guys to do much. This

897
00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:44,919
Speaker 1: is a zone run type team right now. They don't

898
00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:46,640
Speaker 1: pull a lot of guards. They don't they don't gt

899
00:44:46,840 --> 00:44:48,920
Speaker 1: pull that stuff. They say, look, put a man on

900
00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:50,640
Speaker 1: a man, get to the second level and go. So

901
00:44:50,680 --> 00:44:53,520
Speaker 1: I think that as the season goes along, I'll see

902
00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:56,480
Speaker 1: more from these guys in the run game, but I

903
00:44:56,560 --> 00:44:59,360
Speaker 1: focus on the pass game, and I think that the

904
00:44:59,480 --> 00:45:02,520
Speaker 1: right side of secure and Russell is a is patient

905
00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:04,919
Speaker 1: and he's patient and he's on time. At the same time,

906
00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:08,160
Speaker 1: he's weird. It's like he's not going to force anything. Um,

907
00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:10,800
Speaker 1: but he's going to make the right decision. He he's

908
00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:13,239
Speaker 1: making them look better than what they are, I think, Yeah,

909
00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:15,879
Speaker 1: and he knows when to get rid of it on time. Yeah,

910
00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:18,920
Speaker 1: and then he also realizes, hey, i've got six guys in,

911
00:45:19,600 --> 00:45:22,279
Speaker 1: we've got these protected. I'm I'm gonna extend and let

912
00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:25,080
Speaker 1: these deep routes go as well. I think it's been

913
00:45:25,080 --> 00:45:29,239
Speaker 1: pretty and runs the numbers numbers, it's it's um, yeah,

914
00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:32,160
Speaker 1: it's impressive. Yeah, I mean, Russell was playing leve It's

915
00:45:32,200 --> 00:45:35,239
Speaker 1: just it's it's insane to me. Well, one secon bump.

916
00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:36,800
Speaker 1: So you talk about the right side of the line.

917
00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:40,440
Speaker 1: The difference here, right is we're talking about can you

918
00:45:40,520 --> 00:45:47,080
Speaker 1: hear me? No? Sure, yeah, well you're on. Well it's

919
00:45:47,120 --> 00:45:49,920
Speaker 1: he on. He last last week he hopped in and

920
00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:52,279
Speaker 1: we couldn't hear him. But yeah, but it was on Yeah, okay,

921
00:45:52,280 --> 00:45:57,920
Speaker 1: well never mind, then it's go ahead. Then never mind, Paul.

922
00:45:57,960 --> 00:46:01,000
Speaker 1: But you you break it down to me, No, the

923
00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:03,840
Speaker 1: reason why I'm throwing out there, I think our offensive

924
00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:07,840
Speaker 1: line is so and why we're running or throwing the

925
00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:10,080
Speaker 1: ball so much, it's the protection. I think we can

926
00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:12,759
Speaker 1: run it all day. One of our colleagues today, I

927
00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:14,919
Speaker 1: won't call him out, he said, we need to run

928
00:46:14,960 --> 00:46:19,760
Speaker 1: it more. I'm like, we're scoring over thirty points every game.

929
00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:22,120
Speaker 1: Do we really need to run it more? I mean,

930
00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:25,360
Speaker 1: it really is a byproduct of what the other team's

931
00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:27,560
Speaker 1: doing to us. Right, if we can throw it, Like

932
00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:29,520
Speaker 1: if we throw it sixty times, don't run it once

933
00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:31,719
Speaker 1: and score forty points, we don't need to run the ball. Yeah,

934
00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:33,640
Speaker 1: but do we do? We need to run the ball

935
00:46:33,680 --> 00:46:36,919
Speaker 1: more now. I think if there's a need to run

936
00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:39,160
Speaker 1: the ball more, it's just to get a guy like

937
00:46:39,239 --> 00:46:42,200
Speaker 1: Chris Carson, just keeping him engage because you get down

938
00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:44,600
Speaker 1: to the goal line. There's a couple of times Week

939
00:46:44,640 --> 00:46:46,439
Speaker 1: one through three they got down to the goal line

940
00:46:46,480 --> 00:46:48,680
Speaker 1: and they're tossing it. Now, if I'm a running back,

941
00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:51,080
Speaker 1: we're doing all this work, we're grinding to get down there.

942
00:46:51,280 --> 00:46:53,520
Speaker 1: It's my time to shine and let me finish this off.

943
00:46:53,600 --> 00:46:55,400
Speaker 1: So I feel like if there is a reason to

944
00:46:55,520 --> 00:46:57,480
Speaker 1: run the ball is to kind of keep the morale

945
00:46:57,560 --> 00:47:01,360
Speaker 1: of that running back room up. Yeah, you know, I

946
00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:04,279
Speaker 1: I think it's just called deficient running. You know, we're

947
00:47:04,320 --> 00:47:07,040
Speaker 1: we're we are different. We're a different team. It's a

948
00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:10,680
Speaker 1: different philosophy. It's not about controlling the clock anymore. Um,

949
00:47:10,760 --> 00:47:13,280
Speaker 1: it's about let's go ahead and score. It's really interesting.

950
00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:15,839
Speaker 1: I think in the past we've been a team that said,

951
00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:19,200
Speaker 1: let's reduce the amount of possessions for the other offense,

952
00:47:19,560 --> 00:47:22,239
Speaker 1: let's play great defense. And now I feel like it's

953
00:47:22,280 --> 00:47:25,319
Speaker 1: almost the opposite. No, let's just get back out there,

954
00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:28,759
Speaker 1: Let's get our offense as many opportunities as possible. We're

955
00:47:28,760 --> 00:47:32,200
Speaker 1: gonna score points. And I'm almost to the belief of

956
00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:35,640
Speaker 1: this is where philosophy, because this is what would be

957
00:47:35,680 --> 00:47:40,160
Speaker 1: an interesting conversation with Pete Carroll and Ken Norton, as hey,

958
00:47:40,640 --> 00:47:43,400
Speaker 1: go ahead and take some chances again, and if you

959
00:47:43,640 --> 00:47:46,440
Speaker 1: if they score quick, I don't care. Well, we want

960
00:47:46,440 --> 00:47:49,040
Speaker 1: to get right back on the field. We're gonna score again. Anyways,

961
00:47:49,880 --> 00:47:52,960
Speaker 1: that's a completely different mindset than what we've had in

962
00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:55,600
Speaker 1: the past. Okay, so now we're we talked about what

963
00:47:55,640 --> 00:47:58,120
Speaker 1: we saw in this offense, and you say they don't

964
00:47:58,200 --> 00:48:00,600
Speaker 1: need to run the football, so offensive, what do we

965
00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:02,440
Speaker 1: need to see? Is there anything that we need to

966
00:48:02,440 --> 00:48:06,400
Speaker 1: see offensively? We're scoring over We scored over thirty points

967
00:48:06,440 --> 00:48:09,480
Speaker 1: every game, so no, we're not. So what can we

968
00:48:09,520 --> 00:48:12,239
Speaker 1: improve on? How's that? I think you're running games there.

969
00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:14,800
Speaker 1: If you want to let us run the ball thirty times,

970
00:48:14,920 --> 00:48:17,640
Speaker 1: I think we can have one hundred and fifty two

971
00:48:17,719 --> 00:48:21,040
Speaker 1: hundred yards. I believe that we got to convert more

972
00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:24,520
Speaker 1: th third down. It's the one weakness we've had, which

973
00:48:24,560 --> 00:48:28,279
Speaker 1: is kind of surprising. But I also get I mean,

974
00:48:28,320 --> 00:48:31,400
Speaker 1: third downs are are weird. I mean it's just sometimes

975
00:48:31,400 --> 00:48:34,640
Speaker 1: you feel pressure on it. Sometimes you're running routes always

976
00:48:34,719 --> 00:48:37,560
Speaker 1: to the sticks. You're gonna have to mix that up

977
00:48:37,600 --> 00:48:39,680
Speaker 1: a little bit. There's other teams that say, hey, fine,

978
00:48:39,880 --> 00:48:44,920
Speaker 1: we're gonna we're gonna give We're gonna convert at thirty percent.

979
00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:47,160
Speaker 1: We're gonna force you at thirty percent, but we may

980
00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:49,200
Speaker 1: give up a touchdown on one of those. So there's

981
00:48:49,200 --> 00:48:51,480
Speaker 1: just that cat and mouse chess game where we are

982
00:48:51,480 --> 00:48:54,359
Speaker 1: in the field and in the game, what are they doing,

983
00:48:54,440 --> 00:48:57,680
Speaker 1: But we're completing I think thirty eight percent, where it's

984
00:48:57,719 --> 00:49:00,640
Speaker 1: pretty low, which thirty percent should be the middle of

985
00:49:00,680 --> 00:49:02,799
Speaker 1: the pack. By the way, thirty eight percent, now you're

986
00:49:02,840 --> 00:49:06,239
Speaker 1: almost at the bottom. Yeah, there's I can't. I think

987
00:49:06,280 --> 00:49:09,319
Speaker 1: the Cowboys they were converting over fifty percent on third down.

988
00:49:09,600 --> 00:49:12,080
Speaker 1: That was unheard of that but that was impossible in

989
00:49:12,120 --> 00:49:15,239
Speaker 1: the old days. But now it's it's happening. So that

990
00:49:15,280 --> 00:49:17,440
Speaker 1: would be my one if we could do that, because

991
00:49:17,440 --> 00:49:20,160
Speaker 1: there's really not been very many teams that have stopped us.

992
00:49:20,239 --> 00:49:23,799
Speaker 1: We've stopped ourselves with penalties, a few drops here and there,

993
00:49:25,120 --> 00:49:28,440
Speaker 1: you know, a couple weird you know, interceptions, but other

994
00:49:28,480 --> 00:49:30,520
Speaker 1: than now, I think we're awfully good. So now I

995
00:49:30,600 --> 00:49:32,080
Speaker 1: go over to the defense, all right, bring it on,

996
00:49:32,160 --> 00:49:35,040
Speaker 1: and now what I think or what I want to

997
00:49:35,080 --> 00:49:37,600
Speaker 1: see from that defense or need to see. I actually say,

998
00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:40,600
Speaker 1: to stick with the theme of this whole thing is, uh,

999
00:49:40,840 --> 00:49:43,600
Speaker 1: it's not a secret, just more sacks, as simple as that.

1000
00:49:43,680 --> 00:49:46,440
Speaker 1: Because they're getting quarterback knocked downs, they lead the league.

1001
00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:50,360
Speaker 1: They're getting turnover second second in league in turnovers, especially interceptions.

1002
00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:54,399
Speaker 1: Six interceptions seven is the next best. So they're right

1003
00:49:54,440 --> 00:49:58,400
Speaker 1: there now you throw the football, and because they're getting interceptions,

1004
00:49:58,440 --> 00:50:00,720
Speaker 1: it leads me to believe that the pressure is getting

1005
00:50:00,719 --> 00:50:04,160
Speaker 1: to the quarterbacks because most intercepts interceptions are Aaron throws

1006
00:50:04,200 --> 00:50:07,000
Speaker 1: because the pocket is collapsing on him. I just need

1007
00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:09,560
Speaker 1: to see more sex now. We started the season in

1008
00:50:09,600 --> 00:50:11,680
Speaker 1: the middle of the pack when he came to sex. Now,

1009
00:50:11,719 --> 00:50:14,000
Speaker 1: I think the leaders like at seventeen sacks and we're

1010
00:50:14,080 --> 00:50:17,600
Speaker 1: like at six, you know, seven, So it's the same

1011
00:50:17,600 --> 00:50:21,279
Speaker 1: old story to me. Before Miami, I would say I

1012
00:50:21,320 --> 00:50:23,239
Speaker 1: need to see the linebackers to get more depth and

1013
00:50:23,320 --> 00:50:26,759
Speaker 1: really understand the route combinations and tip the football. We

1014
00:50:27,160 --> 00:50:29,480
Speaker 1: saw Cody Barton tip of football, saw KG and get

1015
00:50:29,520 --> 00:50:32,560
Speaker 1: his hands on a couple. Bobby was close. But after this,

1016
00:50:32,600 --> 00:50:34,440
Speaker 1: I'm just like, Okay, well, I feel like that's fixed.

1017
00:50:34,480 --> 00:50:36,960
Speaker 1: The back end is fixed. We got two picks last week,

1018
00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:41,399
Speaker 1: should have had four, should have had four, maybe five. Yeah,

1019
00:50:41,400 --> 00:50:43,840
Speaker 1: But defensively, I'm like, just get after the quarterback. What

1020
00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:46,160
Speaker 1: do you need to see? Yeah, your sacks are kind

1021
00:50:46,160 --> 00:50:49,239
Speaker 1: of like interceptions. Sometimes they're just hard. You know, Miami

1022
00:50:49,680 --> 00:50:51,840
Speaker 1: coming into the game. He'd only been sacked five times,

1023
00:50:52,080 --> 00:50:54,319
Speaker 1: you know, so the boss coming out quick, he gets back,

1024
00:50:54,360 --> 00:50:56,960
Speaker 1: he's throwing it. He doesn't care once he hits his

1025
00:50:57,040 --> 00:50:59,560
Speaker 1: back foot. Talking about Fitzpatrick, it could be a dump

1026
00:50:59,600 --> 00:51:01,520
Speaker 1: off to the back. It could be, you know, just

1027
00:51:01,719 --> 00:51:05,280
Speaker 1: a three yard hitch route. They're they're hard at times.

1028
00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:08,120
Speaker 1: To me. I just want to see the pocket collapse.

1029
00:51:08,560 --> 00:51:10,080
Speaker 1: I want to see the ball come out on time

1030
00:51:10,080 --> 00:51:13,360
Speaker 1: because now I can divide again design my defense around

1031
00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:15,719
Speaker 1: that my past defense, So I'm okay with it. I

1032
00:51:15,760 --> 00:51:18,600
Speaker 1: want to see quarterback hits. I want to see, you know,

1033
00:51:18,640 --> 00:51:20,439
Speaker 1: I don't want them holding the ball for two point

1034
00:51:20,480 --> 00:51:24,799
Speaker 1: eight three three seconds. That's bad. I feel better about

1035
00:51:24,840 --> 00:51:27,640
Speaker 1: where we're going on defense. And again, if we could

1036
00:51:27,680 --> 00:51:30,760
Speaker 1: take the fourth quarter away, I know we can't. I'm

1037
00:51:30,760 --> 00:51:34,160
Speaker 1: gonna have something for Sunday. What we give up first

1038
00:51:34,360 --> 00:51:36,960
Speaker 1: first quarter, second quarter, third quarter, amount of yards in

1039
00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:40,239
Speaker 1: first downs, and fourth quarter the fourth quarter. We we

1040
00:51:40,320 --> 00:51:42,480
Speaker 1: just got to figure out something philosophy wise. But I

1041
00:51:42,520 --> 00:51:44,560
Speaker 1: bet there's not one team in the NFL right now

1042
00:51:44,600 --> 00:51:48,040
Speaker 1: it's had a double digit lead every single game this year.

1043
00:51:48,040 --> 00:51:51,560
Speaker 1: But the Seahawks, as usual, we got it all figured out.

1044
00:51:51,600 --> 00:51:53,799
Speaker 1: We just listen to Michael Bumps and Paul Moyer and

1045
00:51:53,880 --> 00:51:56,520
Speaker 1: we're good to go. I'll give our podcast numbers later.

1046
00:51:56,560 --> 00:51:58,880
Speaker 1: There we go. Coming up next, we'll go inside the

1047
00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:01,200
Speaker 1: film room and revisit the biggest plays from the Seahawks

1048
00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:04,000
Speaker 1: victory over the Dolphins. That's right around a corner right

Speaker 1: just in case, just in case. Did you know that? Though?

1056
00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:34,160
Speaker 1: Were you even born when they were serious getting jiggie

1057
00:52:34,160 --> 00:52:37,280
Speaker 1: in two thousands? Come on, man, how were you thousands?

1058
00:52:37,719 --> 00:52:41,520
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter, but I was like, you were in diapers? No, Paul,

1059
00:52:41,920 --> 00:52:44,200
Speaker 1: I'm an eighties baby. I wasn't in diapers. Well, I

1060
00:52:44,280 --> 00:52:47,160
Speaker 1: mean some people were diapers to like sixteen seventeen. You

1061
00:52:47,239 --> 00:52:50,200
Speaker 1: never know. All right, Well, let's get jiggie with these

1062
00:52:50,200 --> 00:52:52,799
Speaker 1: players there, Paul. The first player we're gonna look at

1063
00:52:52,880 --> 00:52:55,520
Speaker 1: is Russell Wilson finds David Moore on a fifty seven

1064
00:52:55,640 --> 00:52:59,200
Speaker 1: yard touchdowns set up. Excuse me, let me try to again.

1065
00:52:59,280 --> 00:53:02,400
Speaker 1: Russell wasn't five David Moore on a fifty seven yards

1066
00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:05,120
Speaker 1: setting up a testdown before the half four man rush

1067
00:53:05,200 --> 00:53:07,120
Speaker 1: on first and ten. Now, Russell is gonna scramble left,

1068
00:53:07,160 --> 00:53:09,319
Speaker 1: looks gonna let it fly down field. Got him out

1069
00:53:09,320 --> 00:53:11,719
Speaker 1: out there, wide open, making the catch. David Moore knocked

1070
00:53:11,719 --> 00:53:14,920
Speaker 1: out of bounds at the five yard line. Russell Wilson

1071
00:53:14,960 --> 00:53:18,160
Speaker 1: extends the play as he does, and David Moore just

1072
00:53:18,280 --> 00:53:21,919
Speaker 1: got wide open down the nearest sidelines and russ laid

1073
00:53:21,960 --> 00:53:26,200
Speaker 1: it out there perfectly, throwing left, rolling left, that is,

1074
00:53:26,239 --> 00:53:29,040
Speaker 1: and throwing with his right arm out sixty nine yard

1075
00:53:29,160 --> 00:53:32,360
Speaker 1: hook up. I'm gonna leave that to you. No, I

1076
00:53:33,239 --> 00:53:36,080
Speaker 1: was thinking this is perfect for you. You want to

1077
00:53:36,160 --> 00:53:38,920
Speaker 1: leave it to me because it's a complete bus by

1078
00:53:38,960 --> 00:53:45,040
Speaker 1: the defense exactly. Here's what's impressive about this though. There

1079
00:53:45,200 --> 00:53:49,520
Speaker 1: was about twenty four seconds left on the clock, and

1080
00:53:49,840 --> 00:53:52,839
Speaker 1: the offensive coaches went to Pete and said, we want

1081
00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:55,880
Speaker 1: to push this. We think we can score. There's twenty

1082
00:53:55,880 --> 00:53:59,360
Speaker 1: four seconds left on the clock. Most people are running it.

1083
00:53:59,400 --> 00:54:01,719
Speaker 1: Let's see if we have a play. And we had

1084
00:54:01,800 --> 00:54:04,319
Speaker 1: David Moore on early and we asked him about this play,

1085
00:54:04,400 --> 00:54:06,640
Speaker 1: and he said, we were trying to work the middle

1086
00:54:06,680 --> 00:54:08,600
Speaker 1: of the field. Just wee he gets some yards, maybe

1087
00:54:08,600 --> 00:54:10,680
Speaker 1: get to midfield. I think they're just hoping, maybe they

1088
00:54:10,760 --> 00:54:14,120
Speaker 1: get a field goal. We got three wide receivers to

1089
00:54:14,200 --> 00:54:17,960
Speaker 1: the right. It's just a bust. I think it's a

1090
00:54:18,040 --> 00:54:20,600
Speaker 1: three deep zone. They dropped the safety on the week side,

1091
00:54:20,600 --> 00:54:23,160
Speaker 1: which I have no idea why they did this. There's

1092
00:54:23,239 --> 00:54:26,840
Speaker 1: nobody over there. But this is just a dumb defense.

1093
00:54:26,880 --> 00:54:29,160
Speaker 1: And the left or excuse me, the right corner goes

1094
00:54:30,080 --> 00:54:32,480
Speaker 1: on an end route when David Moore is the outside

1095
00:54:32,520 --> 00:54:34,200
Speaker 1: receiver runs a goal. I don't even know how to

1096
00:54:34,200 --> 00:54:37,040
Speaker 1: explain this other than most of the time the guy

1097
00:54:37,120 --> 00:54:39,879
Speaker 1: has one more chance for his on the street. But

1098
00:54:40,320 --> 00:54:43,000
Speaker 1: I think, again, what's so great about this play is

1099
00:54:43,040 --> 00:54:46,480
Speaker 1: it's Russell Wilson, always looking downfield, always looking to push

1100
00:54:46,480 --> 00:54:50,000
Speaker 1: the ball. David Moore, who wasn't the primary We asked

1101
00:54:50,040 --> 00:54:53,120
Speaker 1: him about that. There was probably was Freddie Swain or

1102
00:54:53,160 --> 00:54:54,680
Speaker 1: somebody in the middle of it. Could have been Olsen.

1103
00:54:55,520 --> 00:54:59,040
Speaker 1: But you never quit with Russell Wilson. Every guy is

1104
00:54:59,160 --> 00:55:02,440
Speaker 1: live in the play and this is huge. I mean,

1105
00:55:02,440 --> 00:55:05,480
Speaker 1: this sends up becoming a touchdown. This is why you

1106
00:55:05,560 --> 00:55:08,480
Speaker 1: always run your routes hard because you never know, especially

1107
00:55:08,520 --> 00:55:10,279
Speaker 1: in this office, you never know when you're gonna get

1108
00:55:10,280 --> 00:55:12,320
Speaker 1: the football. Now to me, I look at this defense.

1109
00:55:12,320 --> 00:55:14,960
Speaker 1: It's supposed to be a three deep zone. That corner

1110
00:55:15,040 --> 00:55:18,440
Speaker 1: took the bait. I want to say Olsen had two

1111
00:55:18,520 --> 00:55:20,920
Speaker 1: or three catches prior to this on that same route,

1112
00:55:20,920 --> 00:55:23,920
Speaker 1: and he's trying to do someone else's job. One of

1113
00:55:23,960 --> 00:55:26,160
Speaker 1: the main things my coaches told me growing up, do

1114
00:55:26,600 --> 00:55:29,240
Speaker 1: your job. Don't worry about his job, ton't worry about

1115
00:55:29,239 --> 00:55:31,840
Speaker 1: their job. Doing your job. This corner is trying to

1116
00:55:31,880 --> 00:55:34,520
Speaker 1: be a hero. He jumps on greg Olsen's route, which

1117
00:55:34,560 --> 00:55:36,839
Speaker 1: is about a ten fifteen yard end. It's a tight end.

1118
00:55:37,560 --> 00:55:40,400
Speaker 1: There's twenty four seconds left and a half and what

1119
00:55:40,480 --> 00:55:43,360
Speaker 1: does Russell do? Gets outside the pocket, extends to play,

1120
00:55:43,680 --> 00:55:47,600
Speaker 1: makes the defense pay for their mistake. Easy catch by

1121
00:55:47,680 --> 00:55:50,160
Speaker 1: David Moore. All David Moore does his catch goal balls anyway,

1122
00:55:50,200 --> 00:55:52,840
Speaker 1: So there you go. What do you call him? Demo swag,

1123
00:55:52,880 --> 00:55:56,400
Speaker 1: babymail swag? All right. The next place, Shaquille Griffin intercepts

1124
00:55:56,480 --> 00:55:59,880
Speaker 1: Ryan Fitzpatrick setting up at Chris Carson touchdown first and ten.

1125
00:56:00,160 --> 00:56:03,080
Speaker 1: Fitzpatrick is gonna throw inside. Both picked off. It's Shack

1126
00:56:03,160 --> 00:56:05,960
Speaker 1: Griffin here. He comes back to the right side across

1127
00:56:06,000 --> 00:56:08,480
Speaker 1: the forty down to the thirty five, knocked out of

1128
00:56:08,480 --> 00:56:12,280
Speaker 1: bounds by the Seahawks bench. Inside the thirty five yard line,

1129
00:56:12,520 --> 00:56:15,399
Speaker 1: Shaq Griffin comes up with his second interception in as

1130
00:56:15,400 --> 00:56:18,680
Speaker 1: many weeks. Fitzpatrick throws his second pick of the day

1131
00:56:18,840 --> 00:56:21,360
Speaker 1: and the Seahawks are back in business to really salt

1132
00:56:21,480 --> 00:56:24,919
Speaker 1: us away with four to sixteen left to play. Man,

1133
00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:28,960
Speaker 1: this is good stuff. So you asked about sacks. Mayo

1134
00:56:29,239 --> 00:56:32,959
Speaker 1: comes off the left edge here and fantastic rush, push

1135
00:56:33,040 --> 00:56:36,640
Speaker 1: pressure on Fitzpatrick. He's got a step step up, make throw.

1136
00:56:36,680 --> 00:56:39,040
Speaker 1: But this is the three man rush as Shakim is

1137
00:56:39,120 --> 00:56:41,359
Speaker 1: kind of a spy. Maybe he's looking for a check

1138
00:56:41,400 --> 00:56:44,759
Speaker 1: down here as well, because you know, Fitzpatrick did run

1139
00:56:44,800 --> 00:56:47,839
Speaker 1: the ball well, I mean, he could scramble. But this

1140
00:56:47,920 --> 00:56:51,919
Speaker 1: is when I'm starting to feel shat Griffin. He goes

1141
00:56:51,960 --> 00:56:54,480
Speaker 1: this is a three deep zone. It's it's kind of

1142
00:56:54,480 --> 00:56:56,719
Speaker 1: a classic. Whether they're running kind of what we call

1143
00:56:56,880 --> 00:57:00,400
Speaker 1: skinny post or a skinny route right on the numbers.

1144
00:57:01,960 --> 00:57:05,480
Speaker 1: He trust his instincts. He undercuts this thing hard. Now

1145
00:57:05,520 --> 00:57:09,000
Speaker 1: some coaches say, don't go until that ball strone. He's

1146
00:57:09,000 --> 00:57:12,680
Speaker 1: starting to break about the time the ball strone. This

1147
00:57:12,760 --> 00:57:15,600
Speaker 1: is just a fantastic interception. By the way, I gotta

1148
00:57:15,600 --> 00:57:18,160
Speaker 1: get props to kJ right on this too. He reads

1149
00:57:18,160 --> 00:57:21,240
Speaker 1: this route. They've got three ride receiver, three wide receivers

1150
00:57:21,240 --> 00:57:25,120
Speaker 1: to our left. kJ immediately opens up to it and

1151
00:57:25,240 --> 00:57:28,120
Speaker 1: he runs with this deep crossing route. And this one

1152
00:57:28,200 --> 00:57:31,160
Speaker 1: of our weaknesses. This is when I feel like we're

1153
00:57:31,200 --> 00:57:34,800
Speaker 1: starting to understand these these past concepts better. Yeah. I

1154
00:57:34,920 --> 00:57:39,400
Speaker 1: look at this play and defensively, it's beautiful. You mentioned kJ.

1155
00:57:39,840 --> 00:57:42,400
Speaker 1: I look at Bobby. Bobby has eyes in the backfield.

1156
00:57:42,400 --> 00:57:44,200
Speaker 1: He drops to his zone. He tries to get a

1157
00:57:44,200 --> 00:57:46,760
Speaker 1: hand on it. Ugu Amadi has the flat. He re

1158
00:57:46,920 --> 00:57:50,200
Speaker 1: routes number two, gets to number one. Shack saw number

1159
00:57:50,240 --> 00:57:53,320
Speaker 1: one go in. He's like, he's no longer my responsibility.

1160
00:57:53,560 --> 00:57:55,439
Speaker 1: Now I gets a freelance a little bit. He saw

1161
00:57:55,560 --> 00:57:58,520
Speaker 1: number one go in, locksaw number two and then rolls

1162
00:57:58,560 --> 00:58:01,960
Speaker 1: the dice and rolls seven on the come out. This

1163
00:58:02,040 --> 00:58:04,640
Speaker 1: lets me know one, this is one of the art.

1164
00:58:04,680 --> 00:58:06,560
Speaker 1: This is one of the plays that I watched, and

1165
00:58:06,600 --> 00:58:09,120
Speaker 1: I'm like, this defense is understanding what they're looking at.

1166
00:58:09,240 --> 00:58:12,880
Speaker 1: And if they can continue to play like this, they're

1167
00:58:12,920 --> 00:58:14,840
Speaker 1: gonna be tough. Now, I would love to be out

1168
00:58:14,840 --> 00:58:17,200
Speaker 1: there and hear the communication in in and in over

1169
00:58:17,240 --> 00:58:19,240
Speaker 1: the top, you know, just this that type of stuff

1170
00:58:19,240 --> 00:58:21,160
Speaker 1: that people don't get to hear that. Now, it's not

1171
00:58:21,200 --> 00:58:22,720
Speaker 1: like basketball. We're you gonna be able to talk to

1172
00:58:22,760 --> 00:58:26,040
Speaker 1: each other the whole. It's it's a little bit here

1173
00:58:26,080 --> 00:58:30,320
Speaker 1: in it's it's it's um. Hell would I describe it's

1174
00:58:30,400 --> 00:58:35,080
Speaker 1: it's um. I don't know. I'm drawing a blank on

1175
00:58:35,120 --> 00:58:38,680
Speaker 1: the word. It's. It's like more of association. You say something.

1176
00:58:38,680 --> 00:58:42,720
Speaker 1: I didn't really hear the end. I just heard a sound, right,

1177
00:58:42,760 --> 00:58:45,360
Speaker 1: which means you're talking to me, which I said, okay,

1178
00:58:45,400 --> 00:58:48,080
Speaker 1: I've got an ind route shallow in route with that

1179
00:58:48,800 --> 00:58:52,640
Speaker 1: outside receiver. So there's that kind of communication because yeah,

1180
00:58:52,680 --> 00:58:55,720
Speaker 1: I'm not having a conversation with you. You know, it's

1181
00:58:55,720 --> 00:58:58,480
Speaker 1: it's it's a different language. But you're right, and and

1182
00:58:58,600 --> 00:59:00,840
Speaker 1: it's weird as that as you pick that up as

1183
00:59:00,840 --> 00:59:04,880
Speaker 1: an offensive guy, to teach that to defensive guy, sometimes

1184
00:59:04,880 --> 00:59:07,960
Speaker 1: it takes a while. Yeah, you know, it's just againy chemistry.

1185
00:59:08,000 --> 00:59:11,120
Speaker 1: You got an out route, what you've got an income

1186
00:59:11,240 --> 00:59:13,920
Speaker 1: or a turn coming in behind that. You know, you

1187
00:59:14,000 --> 00:59:17,400
Speaker 1: got what was called a china or a little dagger move,

1188
00:59:17,520 --> 00:59:19,320
Speaker 1: or he got a seven route behind. You know, you

1189
00:59:19,360 --> 00:59:21,600
Speaker 1: just start picking up on them. Then once you start

1190
00:59:21,760 --> 00:59:25,080
Speaker 1: reading that early, that's when interceptions came. I got a

1191
00:59:25,080 --> 00:59:30,080
Speaker 1: lot of interceptions from the flex on him, Paul, flex

1192
00:59:30,160 --> 00:59:33,280
Speaker 1: on him. Let's speaking of flex. This next one is

1193
00:59:33,320 --> 00:59:36,160
Speaker 1: a big flax, big boy flex. His next play Russell

1194
00:59:36,160 --> 00:59:40,200
Speaker 1: Wilson his DK on it quick that takes thirty two yards.

1195
00:59:40,240 --> 00:59:42,720
Speaker 1: After a stiff arm and a slot far so one

1196
00:59:42,800 --> 00:59:45,720
Speaker 1: quick throw farside, Paul is caught by medcalf makes one

1197
00:59:45,720 --> 00:59:47,760
Speaker 1: man missed that time of the tackle, turns up field

1198
00:59:47,800 --> 00:59:50,960
Speaker 1: down the sidelines, knocked out of bounds by about the

1199
00:59:51,000 --> 00:59:53,880
Speaker 1: five yard line. I think he was knocked out of bounds.

1200
00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:57,600
Speaker 1: He was, but down to the one. Wow, he actually

1201
00:59:57,680 --> 01:00:00,720
Speaker 1: stayed in bounds that long stride of his and he

1202
01:00:00,840 --> 01:00:03,680
Speaker 1: stepped out of the tackle back near the twenty five

1203
01:00:03,760 --> 01:00:06,760
Speaker 1: and just race down the sidelines on the right side.

1204
01:00:06,920 --> 01:00:11,040
Speaker 1: Almost scored. It's gonna be first in gold Seahawk. Now, Paul,

1205
01:00:11,080 --> 01:00:13,120
Speaker 1: you pointed something out to me that I didn't really

1206
01:00:13,160 --> 01:00:16,360
Speaker 1: see prior to you saying that you said this was

1207
01:00:16,760 --> 01:00:19,600
Speaker 1: an RPO. This might have been just a check with me,

1208
01:00:20,240 --> 01:00:23,080
Speaker 1: because just the way this thing is, this set of

1209
01:00:23,160 --> 01:00:25,960
Speaker 1: like the slot is blocking the other receivers of blocking.

1210
01:00:26,320 --> 01:00:28,960
Speaker 1: Carson thinks he's getting the ball. He eases up after

1211
01:00:29,000 --> 01:00:32,720
Speaker 1: two or three steps. I think that watching film together

1212
01:00:32,760 --> 01:00:35,280
Speaker 1: that I look, dk we get this look right here,

1213
01:00:35,280 --> 01:00:36,919
Speaker 1: we got this play off. They're gonna play you seven

1214
01:00:36,960 --> 01:00:39,000
Speaker 1: yards off in this situation, I'm just gonna turn in

1215
01:00:39,040 --> 01:00:42,000
Speaker 1: and get you because these linemen are still getting downfield. Well,

1216
01:00:42,120 --> 01:00:45,800
Speaker 1: but it's try. I mean, this is a run, and

1217
01:00:46,320 --> 01:00:49,080
Speaker 1: so funny. Use just said check with me. The old days,

1218
01:00:49,160 --> 01:00:51,680
Speaker 1: check with me was you would look at a defense

1219
01:00:51,840 --> 01:00:53,240
Speaker 1: and you say, well, if they're over the letter to

1220
01:00:53,240 --> 01:00:54,640
Speaker 1: the left, check with me, I'm gonna run it to

1221
01:00:54,680 --> 01:00:58,240
Speaker 1: the right, or potentially I could audible to a pass.

1222
01:00:58,480 --> 01:01:01,000
Speaker 1: In this particular play, they got six guys on the

1223
01:01:01,040 --> 01:01:05,439
Speaker 1: line of scrimmage. We actually if we stayed with the run,

1224
01:01:05,720 --> 01:01:09,080
Speaker 1: it's there. And partly because I think it was Dwayne

1225
01:01:09,080 --> 01:01:11,520
Speaker 1: Brown and a Potty did such a good job on

1226
01:01:11,520 --> 01:01:16,720
Speaker 1: this zone run coming off, there's a play there, but

1227
01:01:16,840 --> 01:01:19,880
Speaker 1: he goes, all right, I got a chance here. One

1228
01:01:19,920 --> 01:01:22,400
Speaker 1: on one. They've got six guys in the box with

1229
01:01:22,480 --> 01:01:25,760
Speaker 1: a middle linebacker. There's seven guys up. I know that

1230
01:01:25,800 --> 01:01:28,440
Speaker 1: Tyler Locket's gonna block this slacker. So it's one on

1231
01:01:28,440 --> 01:01:30,560
Speaker 1: one and with DK metcal if I can get a

1232
01:01:30,600 --> 01:01:34,000
Speaker 1: one on one maybe the one time he tackles me

1233
01:01:34,080 --> 01:01:37,600
Speaker 1: for two yards. But then I get this thirty which

1234
01:01:37,640 --> 01:01:40,320
Speaker 1: wrote to me was a touchdown, and that's all it was.

1235
01:01:40,520 --> 01:01:43,280
Speaker 1: It's it's the simplest play in the world. Right, you

1236
01:01:43,440 --> 01:01:48,040
Speaker 1: watch this play. This was a run play. Everything's going

1237
01:01:48,200 --> 01:01:51,000
Speaker 1: to our right, the defense, excuse me, the defense, right,

1238
01:01:51,040 --> 01:01:54,240
Speaker 1: are left. No one knows the ball was thrown except

1239
01:01:54,240 --> 01:01:57,240
Speaker 1: for Russell and DK. If this was a check with

1240
01:01:57,360 --> 01:02:00,440
Speaker 1: me play in twenty fourteen, does Russell will have their

1241
01:02:00,440 --> 01:02:06,280
Speaker 1: freedom to do that? Um, yeah, I think he has

1242
01:02:06,280 --> 01:02:09,960
Speaker 1: the freedom. I just don't know if he goes, Oh,

1243
01:02:10,120 --> 01:02:13,280
Speaker 1: that horse out there can go the distance. You know,

1244
01:02:13,400 --> 01:02:16,480
Speaker 1: maybe he's throwing it to Bobby or Bobby wasn't with

1245
01:02:16,520 --> 01:02:20,480
Speaker 1: the step with me. We got who who we got

1246
01:02:20,520 --> 01:02:24,120
Speaker 1: in two thousand and four, we got bald one. Maybe

1247
01:02:24,280 --> 01:02:28,040
Speaker 1: bald One's probably inside on the slot. Um, look, DK

1248
01:02:28,200 --> 01:02:32,480
Speaker 1: Metcalfez doesn't knock on wood. He stays healthy. This guy's

1249
01:02:32,480 --> 01:02:33,920
Speaker 1: gonna be one of the great ones of all time.

1250
01:02:34,000 --> 01:02:35,919
Speaker 1: He's gonna be one of the great ones. In that

1251
01:02:36,040 --> 01:02:39,040
Speaker 1: play just added something to his arsenal one yard throw.

1252
01:02:39,160 --> 01:02:43,360
Speaker 1: He can make a guy miss thirty two. I'm Paul Moore,

1253
01:02:43,440 --> 01:02:45,800
Speaker 1: He's Michaelobbs. Don't forget a naid chow be controlling this

1254
01:02:45,840 --> 01:02:49,080
Speaker 1: whole thing. Coming back, we will go around the n

1260
01:03:14,280 --> 01:03:16,200
Speaker 1: now we're going around the NFL. And the first thing

1261
01:03:16,240 --> 01:03:19,520
Speaker 1: I want to talk about, Paul, the Tennessee Titans got

1262
01:03:19,560 --> 01:03:21,800
Speaker 1: themselves that have been in trouble. They had some guys

1263
01:03:21,840 --> 01:03:25,080
Speaker 1: test positive for COVID, and they're supposed to shut things down,

1264
01:03:25,120 --> 01:03:28,000
Speaker 1: but these men got together and wanted to practice. And

1265
01:03:28,600 --> 01:03:30,320
Speaker 1: I know the public is like, what are they doing?

1266
01:03:30,520 --> 01:03:32,880
Speaker 1: They need to understand it, which I understand as well.

1267
01:03:32,880 --> 01:03:35,320
Speaker 1: But you also have to understand you have to prepare

1268
01:03:35,360 --> 01:03:37,640
Speaker 1: to play NFL game, the same the NBA, where you

1269
01:03:37,640 --> 01:03:39,920
Speaker 1: can take two days off. Now I practice, you have

1270
01:03:40,000 --> 01:03:43,160
Speaker 1: to prep and show up. So I understand why they

1271
01:03:43,280 --> 01:03:46,040
Speaker 1: did it, but they gotta follow the rules though. Yeah,

1272
01:03:46,080 --> 01:03:48,440
Speaker 1: it's not like soccery take a month off and go

1273
01:03:48,480 --> 01:03:49,920
Speaker 1: out and play the next day. I mean, you got

1274
01:03:50,000 --> 01:03:54,520
Speaker 1: to actually practice, not tease. And I love soccer. Um, yeah,

1275
01:03:54,520 --> 01:03:58,240
Speaker 1: I do. I actually like to sound. Um. Look, I

1276
01:03:58,640 --> 01:04:01,280
Speaker 1: just think it's so complicated in it. Now. You know,

1277
01:04:01,840 --> 01:04:05,360
Speaker 1: you've been around each other since July, right, and pretty

1278
01:04:05,400 --> 01:04:08,320
Speaker 1: much the only people you've been around is each other

1279
01:04:08,720 --> 01:04:11,600
Speaker 1: and a couple of people test positive. And you want

1280
01:04:12,000 --> 01:04:15,160
Speaker 1: I remember doing that on a strike. We all got together.

1281
01:04:15,200 --> 01:04:18,760
Speaker 1: We weren't even supposed to. We are grabbing plays and

1282
01:04:19,040 --> 01:04:20,840
Speaker 1: we just wanted to get ready. I mean that's what

1283
01:04:20,960 --> 01:04:24,800
Speaker 1: you're accustomed to. And I get this is such a

1284
01:04:24,840 --> 01:04:28,520
Speaker 1: different time. And they're young men, you know, I mean,

1285
01:04:28,560 --> 01:04:31,600
Speaker 1: we're all fallible. I believe that in life you have

1286
01:04:31,680 --> 01:04:34,560
Speaker 1: grace and you teach and you learn, you know, learnable

1287
01:04:34,600 --> 01:04:37,000
Speaker 1: lessons along the way. This is one of them, and

1288
01:04:37,080 --> 01:04:39,200
Speaker 1: we're just we've never gone through this before. And it's

1289
01:04:39,200 --> 01:04:41,480
Speaker 1: just one of those Look, if you guys want to play,

1290
01:04:41,680 --> 01:04:45,440
Speaker 1: it's not about you being sick. It's about there's a

1291
01:04:45,480 --> 01:04:49,160
Speaker 1: process today that if you test positive, you have to

1292
01:04:49,280 --> 01:04:52,560
Speaker 1: quarantine yourself. And so I don't know what's gonna happen.

1293
01:04:52,600 --> 01:04:54,880
Speaker 1: It'd be interesting they end up having a forfeit. Right now,

1294
01:04:54,920 --> 01:04:57,240
Speaker 1: it looks like they're gonna play on Tuesday. That throws

1295
01:04:57,240 --> 01:04:59,440
Speaker 1: all kinds of schedules out. It's gonna be a weird time.

1296
01:05:00,040 --> 01:05:05,680
Speaker 1: I appreciate Tuesday football. I'll take it. Tuesday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday,

1297
01:05:05,760 --> 01:05:07,400
Speaker 1: I'll take it. I'll take it too every day of

1298
01:05:07,400 --> 01:05:13,120
Speaker 1: the week, especially with how your Lakers doing. Hey, championship.

1299
01:05:13,360 --> 01:05:16,280
Speaker 1: Here's my problem. So i'd real quick and subject heard

1300
01:05:16,280 --> 01:05:19,680
Speaker 1: you say that. Man, I just I don't know if

1301
01:05:19,960 --> 01:05:22,960
Speaker 1: I know how many how many players they got one

1302
01:05:23,000 --> 01:05:27,120
Speaker 1: guy on the team they drafted. Are they worry? Are

1303
01:05:27,160 --> 01:05:29,640
Speaker 1: they wearing yellow? And you and I were I had

1304
01:05:29,760 --> 01:05:33,160
Speaker 1: Laker fans. It just feels different. Yeah, it does feel different.

1305
01:05:35,880 --> 01:05:38,960
Speaker 1: Four one, I'd go figure, they just beat Tampa Bay.

1306
01:05:39,120 --> 01:05:41,080
Speaker 1: That's good. By the way, Tom Brady just threw his

1307
01:05:41,240 --> 01:05:44,200
Speaker 1: surface thing and broke it. I think you can afford

1308
01:05:44,200 --> 01:05:49,600
Speaker 1: to buy another one. Um, I'm for every great quarterback

1309
01:05:49,920 --> 01:05:53,280
Speaker 1: in the NFC right now to lose. Tom was one

1310
01:05:53,280 --> 01:05:57,280
Speaker 1: of those. I think we could take Chicago. They got

1311
01:05:57,280 --> 01:06:03,360
Speaker 1: a fantastic defense. You put Foals or Traubisky against Russell Wilson,

1312
01:06:03,400 --> 01:06:07,280
Speaker 1: I'll take that all day. Okay, Aaron rodd is your boy,

1313
01:06:07,560 --> 01:06:11,040
Speaker 1: your favorite quarterback in the league. There they are, they're

1314
01:06:11,080 --> 01:06:19,640
Speaker 1: a problem. You don't like his technique, not playing as

1315
01:06:19,640 --> 01:06:23,800
Speaker 1: well as Russell though he doesn't is. Uh completion percentage

1316
01:06:23,800 --> 01:06:25,840
Speaker 1: isn't as good, his yards per attempt isn't as good,

1317
01:06:25,920 --> 01:06:29,880
Speaker 1: doesn't have as many touchdowns. Um is uh QB ratings

1318
01:06:29,920 --> 01:06:32,479
Speaker 1: not as good. He's QBR I think was a little

1319
01:06:32,480 --> 01:06:35,400
Speaker 1: bit better. Uh. Look, I'm just not a fan of him.

1320
01:06:35,440 --> 01:06:37,400
Speaker 1: But the reason why I think they're a problem, they

1321
01:06:37,400 --> 01:06:40,840
Speaker 1: don't even have or Jamal Adams out there yet. Not

1322
01:06:40,920 --> 01:06:44,920
Speaker 1: Jamal ar Jamal Adams, um Davante Adams. They don't even

1323
01:06:45,000 --> 01:06:47,360
Speaker 1: have him out there yet. Um. They have a good defense.

1324
01:06:47,480 --> 01:06:52,400
Speaker 1: They're playing really good football. Aaron is he looks happy,

1325
01:06:52,520 --> 01:06:55,440
Speaker 1: He's smiling for the first time. He never smiles. I mean,

1326
01:06:55,480 --> 01:06:58,840
Speaker 1: he's a guy that I I really thought hated football.

1327
01:06:59,200 --> 01:07:01,800
Speaker 1: He's just out there playing because he has to. He's

1328
01:07:01,800 --> 01:07:04,720
Speaker 1: actually smiling now. So they're a problem we need. I

1329
01:07:05,120 --> 01:07:07,840
Speaker 1: think fifteen and one is what the Seahawks you're gonna

1330
01:07:07,880 --> 01:07:09,960
Speaker 1: have to do if they want home field advantage. All right,

1331
01:07:10,080 --> 01:07:13,560
Speaker 1: all right, Bill O'Brien by about time he was fired,

1332
01:07:13,560 --> 01:07:16,240
Speaker 1: But his winning presentage is better than any other Texans

1333
01:07:16,280 --> 01:07:18,000
Speaker 1: coach that was before him. Well, I mean they were

1334
01:07:18,040 --> 01:07:21,360
Speaker 1: expansion team. There's not a lot of people before him.

1335
01:07:21,680 --> 01:07:24,200
Speaker 1: Here's what I will say about that. You try to

1336
01:07:24,240 --> 01:07:27,280
Speaker 1: be a GM head coach, it just doesn't work. It's

1337
01:07:27,320 --> 01:07:29,680
Speaker 1: just too much. There's just too much going on. I

1338
01:07:29,760 --> 01:07:33,240
Speaker 1: run a business and you have to have other people

1339
01:07:33,320 --> 01:07:35,160
Speaker 1: doing things for you, and I only got you know,

1340
01:07:35,240 --> 01:07:39,640
Speaker 1: twenty some employees. You have that much, you set them

1341
01:07:39,720 --> 01:07:43,040
Speaker 1: up for failure. There's outside of Bill Belichick, there's not

1342
01:07:43,200 --> 01:07:47,480
Speaker 1: been a successful GM head coach. Bill Belichick pretty good

1343
01:07:47,680 --> 01:07:51,360
Speaker 1: has a tree of coaches, and everyone goes out at

1344
01:07:51,360 --> 01:07:53,400
Speaker 1: some point and does their thing, but no one really

1345
01:07:53,440 --> 01:07:56,120
Speaker 1: has success as a head coach. As a head coach, right,

1346
01:07:56,160 --> 01:07:58,680
Speaker 1: as coordinators, that's different. Right, how much longer does Matt

1347
01:07:58,720 --> 01:08:03,480
Speaker 1: Patricia having he should have a week? I don't know.

1348
01:08:03,520 --> 01:08:06,800
Speaker 1: Why they picked him. Look, he's a slob. I'm a

1349
01:08:06,800 --> 01:08:10,920
Speaker 1: big believer in you can't tell your players to be

1350
01:08:10,960 --> 01:08:14,880
Speaker 1: in the greatest shape of your their lies, be disciplined,

1351
01:08:15,200 --> 01:08:18,320
Speaker 1: and then to walk out the way he does. And

1352
01:08:18,439 --> 01:08:21,240
Speaker 1: I go, you haven't earned the right to be a

1353
01:08:21,360 --> 01:08:25,240
Speaker 1: jerk like Bill Belichick, And he's a jerk to the media.

1354
01:08:25,880 --> 01:08:29,799
Speaker 1: I just to me, he goes, I just he lacks leadership.

1355
01:08:29,800 --> 01:08:31,240
Speaker 1: He may be a great X and now I heard

1356
01:08:31,240 --> 01:08:34,439
Speaker 1: he's a brilliant guy. That's fine. There are people who

1357
01:08:34,479 --> 01:08:38,280
Speaker 1: are defensive coordinator's, offensive coordinator, assistant coaches. To be a

1358
01:08:38,280 --> 01:08:42,360
Speaker 1: head coach, you are managing running a company. He doesn't

1359
01:08:42,360 --> 01:08:45,240
Speaker 1: know how to run that company. Run a company, Dan Quinn,

1360
01:08:45,439 --> 01:08:47,160
Speaker 1: Does he know how to run a company? Now, we

1361
01:08:47,240 --> 01:08:51,479
Speaker 1: love this guy here in Seattle, but at some point

1362
01:08:51,880 --> 01:08:54,519
Speaker 1: it's got a start up top. I think this offense

1363
01:08:54,720 --> 01:08:57,599
Speaker 1: is playing well, one of the best offenses in the league,

1364
01:08:57,600 --> 01:09:00,839
Speaker 1: but defensively it's they're hurting and he is the defensive

1365
01:09:00,880 --> 01:09:04,400
Speaker 1: guy there. Yeah, they should probably they should have at

1366
01:09:04,479 --> 01:09:08,160
Speaker 1: least two or three wins. Look, I like Danny went

1367
01:09:08,200 --> 01:09:10,080
Speaker 1: to the Super Bowl. They should have won it. They

1368
01:09:10,120 --> 01:09:13,840
Speaker 1: had have won it. He's got all kinds of grace here, right,

1369
01:09:14,800 --> 01:09:18,479
Speaker 1: Sometimes it's just you need to change. And unfortunately, as

1370
01:09:18,520 --> 01:09:20,920
Speaker 1: good at coaches he as well, as as much as

1371
01:09:20,920 --> 01:09:23,439
Speaker 1: he's liked, as good as a leader he is, I

1372
01:09:23,479 --> 01:09:26,400
Speaker 1: think his time is coming up. Hawks have a chance

1373
01:09:26,439 --> 01:09:28,800
Speaker 1: to go five and over the first time in franchise

1374
01:09:29,120 --> 01:09:32,479
Speaker 1: his crazy. How wild is that? Yeah? I mean I

1375
01:09:32,600 --> 01:09:34,800
Speaker 1: had a twelve and four year. We were twelve and

1376
01:09:34,840 --> 01:09:37,040
Speaker 1: two at one point and won eight games in a row.

1377
01:09:37,040 --> 01:09:41,120
Speaker 1: It's pretty special. They've only been two other times. We've

1378
01:09:41,120 --> 01:09:44,160
Speaker 1: been four now. You know that goes back twenty and thirteen,

1379
01:09:44,960 --> 01:09:48,040
Speaker 1: So pretty special. And we need it. And here's what

1380
01:09:48,640 --> 01:09:51,280
Speaker 1: we got Arizona coming up after the bye. We got

1381
01:09:51,320 --> 01:09:54,120
Speaker 1: them twice, we got San Francisco, we've got the Rams,

1382
01:09:54,520 --> 01:09:58,599
Speaker 1: and we've got another tough Buffalo that is a tough

1383
01:09:58,720 --> 01:10:01,720
Speaker 1: five game stretch. So we'd better be five and oh

1384
01:10:02,000 --> 01:10:04,880
Speaker 1: because there's a chance we come out of this seven

1385
01:10:04,880 --> 01:10:07,479
Speaker 1: and three, eight and two and two. I think I

1386
01:10:07,479 --> 01:10:09,280
Speaker 1: think they can and they will go five and oh.

1387
01:10:09,640 --> 01:10:11,880
Speaker 1: Prime time full ball, you know how that You know

1388
01:10:11,960 --> 01:10:14,880
Speaker 1: the Hawks always get up for primetime? Why not do

1389
01:10:14,920 --> 01:10:17,519
Speaker 1: it against the Minnesota Vikings last time they were here

1390
01:10:17,520 --> 01:10:21,439
Speaker 1: and they got it done. One thirty eight liked who

1391
01:10:21,560 --> 01:10:26,879
Speaker 1: who won last week's prediction? Your boy about so between

1392
01:10:27,040 --> 01:10:30,000
Speaker 1: us we got all four wins. I don't like the

1393
01:10:30,040 --> 01:10:31,920
Speaker 1: way that sounds because you got three, I got one. Yeah,

1394
01:10:31,960 --> 01:10:37,479
Speaker 1: we got it. We're part I'd rather say I knocked

1395
01:10:37,479 --> 01:10:41,200
Speaker 1: you off your winning street. Now I'm the top. Everybody

1396

Speaker 1: look and I get the Oscar for best Actor. Okay, yeah,

1398
01:10:50,760 --> 01:10:53,280
Speaker 1: it's good. We're both paid well. As long as as

1399
01:10:53,320 --> 01:10:55,120
Speaker 1: long as we're paid, I'm good with that. I'm going

1406
01:11:25,040 --> 01:11:27,240
Speaker 1: Have you ever wanted to be pal Moore? You know?

1407
01:11:27,439 --> 01:11:30,120
Speaker 1: If you ever said you know? You know? Once or

1408
01:11:30,160 --> 01:11:32,920
Speaker 1: twice I've said that. You know why I say that

1409
01:11:32,960 --> 01:11:35,559
Speaker 1: because all I want to do is turn and run

1410
01:11:35,600 --> 01:11:38,360
Speaker 1: on a cover three and go get the rock intercept.

1411
01:11:38,479 --> 01:11:41,240
Speaker 1: What's an interception in the NFL. Feel like it feels good?

1412
01:11:41,439 --> 01:11:44,120
Speaker 1: Does it feels good? All? Right? Cool? Some feel better

1413
01:11:44,160 --> 01:11:46,840
Speaker 1: than others, but you know they're all. They're all good.

1414
01:11:46,920 --> 01:11:49,040
Speaker 1: Even if it's like a tip. You know, guy tips

1415
01:11:49,040 --> 01:11:51,879
Speaker 1: it and you're happening to be there. But my favorite

1416
01:11:51,920 --> 01:11:56,360
Speaker 1: interception we're playing back then it was Houston Oilers. Okay,

1417
01:11:56,520 --> 01:12:01,040
Speaker 1: we're now Tennessee Titans. Um war in Moon. There's a

1418
01:12:01,120 --> 01:12:04,160
Speaker 1: quarterback and Warren used to do this play. They did

1419
01:12:04,160 --> 01:12:07,080
Speaker 1: the run and shoot back then, and Warren would drift

1420
01:12:07,960 --> 01:12:11,360
Speaker 1: to his right and to pull the safety and then

1421
01:12:11,400 --> 01:12:15,120
Speaker 1: come back left or my defense is right but his

1422
01:12:15,320 --> 01:12:19,360
Speaker 1: left and throw a It was a post route, but

1423
01:12:19,360 --> 01:12:21,760
Speaker 1: it was where you really couldn't get there as a

1424
01:12:21,800 --> 01:12:24,280
Speaker 1: safety if you drifted at all. I worked on that

1425
01:12:24,360 --> 01:12:26,559
Speaker 1: all week. I was ready for it. I was ready

1426
01:12:26,680 --> 01:12:29,160
Speaker 1: and I'll be din right. So we're I think we're

1427
01:12:29,240 --> 01:12:31,680
Speaker 1: up or down by three. There's about four or five

1428
01:12:31,680 --> 01:12:34,240
Speaker 1: minutes left in the game. And he slides to his

1429
01:12:34,439 --> 01:12:37,919
Speaker 1: right and I start to go because it's like, oh,

1430
01:12:37,920 --> 01:12:40,400
Speaker 1: it's just a natural thing. And also my brain kicks

1431
01:12:40,400 --> 01:12:43,519
Speaker 1: and I go, oh no, and thank god, I mean

1432
01:12:43,760 --> 01:12:48,479
Speaker 1: one million nano second later, if I don't do it

1433
01:12:48,520 --> 01:12:50,720
Speaker 1: and come back. It's a touchdown, but I do I

1434
01:12:50,840 --> 01:12:54,280
Speaker 1: come back pick that bad fellow got my diamond hands

1435
01:12:54,360 --> 01:12:57,280
Speaker 1: right there, took it down the sideline to about the

1436
01:12:57,320 --> 01:12:59,439
Speaker 1: forty yardland. We end up going down kick in the field.

1437
01:12:59,439 --> 01:13:01,360
Speaker 1: I think the one game nice. Yeah, it was good.

1438
01:13:01,479 --> 01:13:04,800
Speaker 1: You know what, My favorite touchdown was my only love.

1439
01:13:05,160 --> 01:13:08,400
Speaker 1: Everybody has so and and Matt didn't want to throw

1440
01:13:08,400 --> 01:13:10,600
Speaker 1: it to me. Matt house back. He he pumped me.

1441
01:13:10,600 --> 01:13:12,040
Speaker 1: He's like, I don't want to give us to that rookie.

1442
01:13:12,080 --> 01:13:13,840
Speaker 1: He looks back. He had no choice but to throw

1443
01:13:13,880 --> 01:13:16,639
Speaker 1: it through. It nice and low made a catch. Yeah, boom.

1444
01:13:16,760 --> 01:13:19,120
Speaker 1: I remember I was there. You're there. Yeah, I told

1445
01:13:19,160 --> 01:13:22,760
Speaker 1: mass thank you. I appreciate that. Yeah, all right. My

1446
01:13:22,840 --> 01:13:29,240
Speaker 1: other two touchdown Seahawks blank, Sony Paul. One of these

1447
01:13:29,240 --> 01:13:31,840
Speaker 1: guys needs to do to win. To me, it's simple.

1448
01:13:32,160 --> 01:13:34,800
Speaker 1: Dalvin Cook, he's the leading Russia NFL four into twenty

1449
01:13:34,800 --> 01:13:38,439
Speaker 1: four yards, six touchdowns. Uh, he's broken twenty one tackles.

1450
01:13:38,960 --> 01:13:41,479
Speaker 1: They can't let him get loose. Yeah, I think there are.

1451
01:13:41,520 --> 01:13:43,519
Speaker 1: They are the number three rush defense in the league

1452
01:13:43,560 --> 01:13:45,880
Speaker 1: for a reason, averaging what seventy five yards. I believe

1453
01:13:45,920 --> 01:13:47,840
Speaker 1: the Hawks are giving up on the ground. They have

1454
01:13:47,920 --> 01:13:50,519
Speaker 1: to be that defense. To me, it's real simple. Dalvin

1455
01:13:50,560 --> 01:13:52,720
Speaker 1: Cook control them. Yeah, it's it's not the yarchs per

1456
01:13:52,800 --> 01:13:55,879
Speaker 1: game though that has been impressed for the yards per attempt.

1457
01:13:56,200 --> 01:13:58,719
Speaker 1: You know, we we've done a really good job against

1458
01:13:58,760 --> 01:14:02,880
Speaker 1: the run. I think we're or stout, but we haven't. Again,

1459
01:14:02,920 --> 01:14:06,679
Speaker 1: when you're up two double digit points in the fourth

1460
01:14:06,760 --> 01:14:08,600
Speaker 1: quarter and teams are having to throw on you, I

1461
01:14:08,840 --> 01:14:10,760
Speaker 1: don't know what that means in the fourth quarter because

1462
01:14:10,760 --> 01:14:14,040
Speaker 1: that's when you know it's it's men versus men. There

1463
01:14:14,120 --> 01:14:17,240
Speaker 1: right now, it's it's a slug fest. You're tired, So

1464
01:14:17,240 --> 01:14:18,960
Speaker 1: we'll see how we hold up there. But you're right,

1465
01:14:19,000 --> 01:14:21,120
Speaker 1: I think Cook last year, I don't know if I

1466
01:14:21,120 --> 01:14:23,040
Speaker 1: think he got hurt in our game last year, so

1467
01:14:23,080 --> 01:14:26,559
Speaker 1: we didn't get a full game with him. He's special.

1468
01:14:27,040 --> 01:14:29,400
Speaker 1: But man, they are loaded. I think this is gonna

1469
01:14:29,400 --> 01:14:31,320
Speaker 1: be a high scoring game. Game. You got Dalvin Cook,

1470
01:14:31,360 --> 01:14:33,240
Speaker 1: who's one of the best nut I don't want to

1471
01:14:33,240 --> 01:14:35,080
Speaker 1: say that beat. He's one of the top five running

1472
01:14:35,120 --> 01:14:38,400
Speaker 1: backs in the league. This justin Jefferson, rookie at LSU

1473
01:14:38,439 --> 01:14:41,160
Speaker 1: wide receiver, really special and the reason why I say

1474
01:14:41,200 --> 01:14:45,120
Speaker 1: that is Adam Thielen was a guy that everybody worried about.

1475
01:14:45,640 --> 01:14:49,599
Speaker 1: Adam looks average versus this justin Jefferson. And then you're

1476
01:14:49,600 --> 01:14:52,960
Speaker 1: throwing um Kyle Rudolph as well, really good tight end

1477
01:14:53,400 --> 01:14:55,639
Speaker 1: where they struggle as in the offensive line. Their guards

1478
01:14:55,640 --> 01:14:58,080
Speaker 1: are not that great, their center's average. They got a

1479
01:14:58,160 --> 01:15:01,240
Speaker 1: rookie tackle. I think we can get after him. I

1480
01:15:01,240 --> 01:15:03,400
Speaker 1: think we're gonna hold up against the run. We better

1481
01:15:03,560 --> 01:15:06,600
Speaker 1: because we we're gonna have to force the pass that

1482
01:15:06,720 --> 01:15:10,040
Speaker 1: they throw for four hundred yards again we win, which

1483
01:15:10,080 --> 01:15:12,360
Speaker 1: our record against four hundred yard passers, I don't know.

1484
01:15:12,680 --> 01:15:15,120
Speaker 1: I don't know. So what, I'm fine with ten and

1485
01:15:15,120 --> 01:15:16,759
Speaker 1: and let's go to five and oh in the season.

1486
01:15:16,840 --> 01:15:20,439
Speaker 1: The thing that scares me about Jefferson is that it

1487
01:15:20,520 --> 01:15:23,599
Speaker 1: makes Feeling that much better because Feeling had his best

1488
01:15:23,640 --> 01:15:27,200
Speaker 1: games when Stefan Diggs was the guy. Feeling he can't

1489
01:15:27,200 --> 01:15:28,840
Speaker 1: be a number one, but I feel like he's more

1490
01:15:28,920 --> 01:15:32,719
Speaker 1: comfortable as a number two. And Jefferson leads the team

1491
01:15:32,760 --> 01:15:35,479
Speaker 1: in yards, and I think it's gonna open up the

1492
01:15:35,520 --> 01:15:38,240
Speaker 1: game for Adam Feeling. So I will see. And then

1493
01:15:38,600 --> 01:15:40,599
Speaker 1: because they go in there, there there are two tight

1494
01:15:40,680 --> 01:15:42,760
Speaker 1: end sets. They play big boy football, two tight end

1495
01:15:42,760 --> 01:15:44,840
Speaker 1: sets there, gonna have two guys releasing. So that means

1496
01:15:44,880 --> 01:15:46,639
Speaker 1: that we're gonna be in our base. I means Cody

1497
01:15:46,640 --> 01:15:50,800
Speaker 1: Barton is gonna be out there kJ Bobby, at least

1498
01:15:51,439 --> 01:15:53,960
Speaker 1: in theory, they will be in their base. When you

1499
01:15:54,080 --> 01:15:56,599
Speaker 1: when you talk about personnel, two tight end sets, you're

1500
01:15:56,600 --> 01:15:58,320
Speaker 1: gonna have your base out there. We'll see what the

1501
01:15:58,320 --> 01:16:00,719
Speaker 1: Seahawks do. If they get into the base, they stay

1502
01:16:00,720 --> 01:16:03,519
Speaker 1: in their base, then I think that's going to be

1503
01:16:03,560 --> 01:16:05,640
Speaker 1: an issue. Okay, So I'm gonna throw this at you

1504
01:16:05,720 --> 01:16:10,160
Speaker 1: because I actually I love and hate when a team

1505
01:16:10,280 --> 01:16:14,200
Speaker 1: blocks eight guys up and throws two wide receivers downfield.

1506
01:16:14,680 --> 01:16:18,120
Speaker 1: I love it because if I got a really smart second,

1507
01:16:18,120 --> 01:16:20,040
Speaker 1: they I go, okay, this is no brainer. I mean,

1508
01:16:20,080 --> 01:16:23,240
Speaker 1: got once we see this, we lock up, we just

1509
01:16:23,320 --> 01:16:25,360
Speaker 1: double we pass the sing off of to no. But

1510
01:16:25,880 --> 01:16:29,200
Speaker 1: you've got to know it's coming on the flip side.

1511
01:16:29,280 --> 01:16:32,120
Speaker 1: I hate it because they have so much time to throw,

1512
01:16:32,400 --> 01:16:34,639
Speaker 1: and at some point a really good receiver will find

1513
01:16:34,680 --> 01:16:37,120
Speaker 1: a way to get open. So let's start at you.

1514
01:16:37,120 --> 01:16:40,479
Speaker 1: You're you're coaching this team right now, and they run

1515
01:16:40,520 --> 01:16:43,439
Speaker 1: a lot of two three man routes. Are you comfortable

1516
01:16:43,520 --> 01:16:48,759
Speaker 1: to Seahawks playing that type of defense base, I'm thinking

1517
01:16:48,760 --> 01:16:50,519
Speaker 1: we're gonna be base because they're gonna come out in

1518
01:16:50,560 --> 01:16:52,400
Speaker 1: two tight ends. Look at third down, we're gonna be

1519
01:16:52,439 --> 01:16:54,840
Speaker 1: a nickel no matter what. But let's let's talk for

1520
01:16:54,880 --> 01:16:58,000
Speaker 1: a second down play action the bootlegs these two three

1521
01:16:58,000 --> 01:17:00,960
Speaker 1: man and by the way, we have been susceptible, susceptible

1522
01:17:01,000 --> 01:17:02,920
Speaker 1: to that in the past. Yeah, the reason why I'm

1523
01:17:02,920 --> 01:17:05,160
Speaker 1: okay with it at least to start. Now, once you

1524
01:17:05,200 --> 01:17:07,000
Speaker 1: get beat, you keep getting beat, you have to adjudge,

1525
01:17:07,040 --> 01:17:09,280
Speaker 1: you gotta get out of it. I'm okay to start

1526
01:17:09,880 --> 01:17:13,200
Speaker 1: because I want guys who can tackle on the football field.

1527
01:17:13,240 --> 01:17:15,160
Speaker 1: I want guys who can get in the box. Because

1528
01:17:15,200 --> 01:17:17,519
Speaker 1: what they're gonna do is they're gonna go misdirection, gonna

1529
01:17:17,560 --> 01:17:20,080
Speaker 1: motion this tied into that side. He's gonna block the

1530
01:17:20,439 --> 01:17:23,479
Speaker 1: back end. Dalvin Cook's gonna run the other way. They're

1531
01:17:23,479 --> 01:17:26,400
Speaker 1: going to force as Big Ray would say, what a

1532
01:17:26,439 --> 01:17:29,280
Speaker 1: phone booth boxing match. That's what they want. They want

1533
01:17:29,280 --> 01:17:31,760
Speaker 1: you to stay in that that personnel. So you can

1534
01:17:31,760 --> 01:17:33,920
Speaker 1: do that. Now, if you bring your little guys out there,

1535
01:17:34,040 --> 01:17:36,479
Speaker 1: then that gives them the advantage. So I think that

1536
01:17:36,560 --> 01:17:38,960
Speaker 1: you have to respect the personnel and come out in

1537
01:17:39,040 --> 01:17:42,120
Speaker 1: that base. But once you see your guys getting getting gashed,

1538
01:17:42,200 --> 01:17:44,519
Speaker 1: then you have to adjust. This is gonna be a

1539
01:17:44,560 --> 01:17:47,120
Speaker 1: really good task for us moving forward because we have

1540
01:17:47,240 --> 01:17:52,719
Speaker 1: not seen everything's complex. I mean, these are smart coaches,

1541
01:17:52,760 --> 01:17:56,599
Speaker 1: but it complex running game. This is our first one

1542
01:17:56,640 --> 01:17:58,519
Speaker 1: where they're committed to the running game. They got a

1543
01:17:58,560 --> 01:18:01,960
Speaker 1: phenomenal running back and again we've got San Francisco that

1544
01:18:02,479 --> 01:18:04,519
Speaker 1: you know, people say, oh, why can't you stop the run?

1545
01:18:04,640 --> 01:18:07,840
Speaker 1: I go because it's when you see it on film,

1546
01:18:07,840 --> 01:18:10,840
Speaker 1: it's really difficult. Where's your gaps? They're always moving people,

1547
01:18:10,840 --> 01:18:14,160
Speaker 1: they're pulling people. The rams are the same way. This

1548
01:18:14,240 --> 01:18:16,880
Speaker 1: is gonna be if we stopped this running game. I'm

1549
01:18:16,880 --> 01:18:20,040
Speaker 1: feeling pretty good. We will make teams one dimensional, moving fast.

1550
01:18:20,040 --> 01:18:24,439
Speaker 1: I mean, you've held Elliot's at thirty four yards. Todd

1551
01:18:24,479 --> 01:18:27,840
Speaker 1: Gurley didn't get off either. Cam Newton didn't get offs.

1552
01:18:27,880 --> 01:18:30,800
Speaker 1: Gasking his miles. Gasking his best game with sixty yards

1553
01:18:30,840 --> 01:18:34,320
Speaker 1: this year. If you can control Dalvin Cook it's tough,

1554
01:18:35,160 --> 01:18:37,840
Speaker 1: then you're looking pretty nice. Yeah, because it only takes

1555
01:18:37,880 --> 01:18:40,639
Speaker 1: one with him, you know, if he he just mess

1556
01:18:40,720 --> 01:18:43,040
Speaker 1: up once on your read, I mean he has a

1557
01:18:43,120 --> 01:18:45,800
Speaker 1: chance to go to the distance. I feel really good though,

1558
01:18:45,800 --> 01:18:49,519
Speaker 1: with or with Diggs for us, and I'm stefan um.

1559
01:18:49,640 --> 01:18:53,080
Speaker 1: I feel really good with Diggs. He's really good tackler,

1560
01:18:53,320 --> 01:18:57,360
Speaker 1: really good football player. We get done bar back, Adams back.

1561
01:18:57,920 --> 01:19:01,519
Speaker 1: Now we're playing good team defense. I feel like again

1562
01:19:01,560 --> 01:19:04,200
Speaker 1: we got one of the best secondaries in the league again,

1563
01:19:04,360 --> 01:19:07,760
Speaker 1: and now offensively, they started two rookie corners last week,

1564
01:19:08,000 --> 01:19:09,640
Speaker 1: so I feel like locket in d K will be

1565
01:19:09,640 --> 01:19:11,880
Speaker 1: able to take care of that. We're hearing from John

1566
01:19:11,960 --> 01:19:14,439
Speaker 1: Clayton or was it Matthew Caller who told us that

1567
01:19:14,960 --> 01:19:17,439
Speaker 1: Kendris hasn't practiced this week. But now, if you lose,

1568
01:19:17,560 --> 01:19:20,840
Speaker 1: if you lose Kendis, you've lost three starting linebackers for

1569
01:19:21,080 --> 01:19:23,880
Speaker 1: your team this year. That means everything's wide open. You

1570
01:19:23,960 --> 01:19:27,960
Speaker 1: got rookie corners, you got backup linebackers. The playbooks should

1571
01:19:28,000 --> 01:19:30,479
Speaker 1: be wide open. If that's the case, Yeah, this could

1572
01:19:30,520 --> 01:19:34,040
Speaker 1: be a high scoring game, and I really could be Minnesota.

1573
01:19:34,240 --> 01:19:37,000
Speaker 1: I'm shocked, and it's partly because their offensive line, whether

1574
01:19:37,160 --> 01:19:40,800
Speaker 1: I think they're twenty six or seventh, offensively, they're they're

1575
01:19:40,920 --> 01:19:43,040
Speaker 1: they're only like three hundred and fifty yards a game, which,

1576
01:19:43,040 --> 01:19:44,920
Speaker 1: again in the old day, three to fifty meant something.

1577
01:19:45,360 --> 01:19:47,679
Speaker 1: Today it's like if you're not within in the four

1578
01:19:47,760 --> 01:19:51,720
Speaker 1: hundred year an afterthought. Offensively, they still have you know,

1579
01:19:51,760 --> 01:19:53,839
Speaker 1: Harrison Smith, I think is one of the best safeties

1580
01:19:53,840 --> 01:19:56,880
Speaker 1: in the league. They've got some players there. Offensively, I

1581
01:19:56,920 --> 01:19:59,880
Speaker 1: already went through all the mall. They are skilled every

1582
01:20:00,240 --> 01:20:02,639
Speaker 1: This is a dangerous football team. They got a really

1583
01:20:02,720 --> 01:20:05,600
Speaker 1: good coaching staff. We're gonna have to play exceptional. I

1584
01:20:05,600 --> 01:20:07,479
Speaker 1: think it's gonna be another high scoring game, all right.

1585
01:20:07,520 --> 01:20:13,360
Speaker 1: So to close this off, what's the score? Ye come on,

1586
01:20:13,439 --> 01:20:16,320
Speaker 1: come on, three and one. Give me a nugget. Three

1587
01:20:16,360 --> 01:20:18,679
Speaker 1: and one, I mean, because you've won three and you've

1588
01:20:18,720 --> 01:20:21,680
Speaker 1: lost one. My partner had one. That's your boy. As

1589
01:20:21,720 --> 01:20:23,720
Speaker 1: a team on four, no, okay, as a team on

1590
01:20:23,800 --> 01:20:26,120
Speaker 1: four no two, I'm with that. Okay, we're four and others.

1591
01:20:26,880 --> 01:20:30,760
Speaker 1: I'm averaging twenty eight year eight. But you're on a

1592
01:20:30,840 --> 01:20:33,400
Speaker 1: winning team. Man. You're gonna go to the super Bowl.

1593
01:20:33,439 --> 01:20:35,720
Speaker 1: That's all that. Matt. We're gonna win the NBA Championship.

1594
01:20:35,880 --> 01:20:39,880
Speaker 1: See how you're gonna win? Um, Honestly, I think we're

1595
01:20:39,880 --> 01:20:43,200
Speaker 1: gonna win by double digits. But it's gonna be high scoring. Yeah,

1596
01:20:43,280 --> 01:20:44,840
Speaker 1: I think. I think it'll be a high scoring game,

1597
01:20:44,840 --> 01:20:47,080
Speaker 1: double digits. I haven't seen it, and when I see

1598
01:20:47,080 --> 01:20:48,800
Speaker 1: it then I'll start believing in it. But that's just

1599
01:20:48,800 --> 01:20:51,360
Speaker 1: not what the Hawks do, all right. That's it. That's

1600
01:20:51,360 --> 01:20:53,559
Speaker 1: all we got, man. We want to think Matthew Coller,
