1 00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:12,920 Speaker 1: It's Thursday at seven o'clock. So you know it's me 2 00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:16,400 Speaker 1: Michael Bumps and Paul Moyer on Hawks Live. Thank you 3 00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:18,640 Speaker 1: for joining us tonight. Moya, how you doing, man, I'm 4 00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:21,720 Speaker 1: doing well. It's it's been a long week. Anytime coming 5 00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:23,720 Speaker 1: off a loss, it takes a while to get the 6 00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:27,240 Speaker 1: week going. But you know, now it's Thursday, it suns out, 7 00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:30,360 Speaker 1: it's gonna be a beautiful weekend. And see it's got 8 00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:32,720 Speaker 1: another tough one. I know, everybody just letting you know. 9 00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:37,280 Speaker 1: Minnesota is owing to both their losses on the road 10 00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:41,760 Speaker 1: total of four points. Yep. So before we get on Minnesota, 11 00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:44,600 Speaker 1: we still have to digest and talk about this loss. 12 00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:46,640 Speaker 1: Real question, let's just go on to minute. We can't. 13 00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:48,440 Speaker 1: We can't do that, Moyer. We have we have to 14 00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 1: live in the president. And now now they lost to 15 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:53,760 Speaker 1: the Titans thirty three to thirty in overtime, and it 16 00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:55,440 Speaker 1: was really a tell of two halves, right, the first 17 00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:57,720 Speaker 1: half is twenty forty nine. You're feeling good. I saw 18 00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 1: a video of Pete Carroll getting ah the crowd all 19 00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:03,600 Speaker 1: hyped up going into halftime, and then you come out 20 00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:06,600 Speaker 1: in the second half and the Titans really dominated. They 21 00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 1: dominated the time of possession. They put together long drives. 22 00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:12,720 Speaker 1: Dereck Henry had a huge play of sixty yard touchdown 23 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:15,160 Speaker 1: to get these guys going. The offense only had the 24 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 1: ball once in the third quarters. So I let you 25 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,919 Speaker 1: know right now that this Tennessee Titans team really controlled 26 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:23,120 Speaker 1: the pace of the game. They slowed it down the 27 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:25,400 Speaker 1: first half. It was boom boom, boom boom, big plays 28 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:28,040 Speaker 1: taking shots down the field. Second half, the Titans kind 29 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:30,319 Speaker 1: of took control and say, look, you're gonna play our 30 00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:36,039 Speaker 1: game now. Yeah. I remember us doing a halftime you know, updates, 31 00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:38,640 Speaker 1: and we were up twenty four tonight. So I felt 32 00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:41,759 Speaker 1: good with the score, but Tennessee was getting the ball. 33 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 1: We weren't. But I didn't feel good with how we 34 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 1: were playing. It just wasn't sharp. And you know, they're 35 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 1: gonna correct all this too, And we went back through 36 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:53,360 Speaker 1: the film and I go, oh my god, they have 37 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 1: so much to correct. Monday was probably an interesting meeting 38 00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 1: day calling guys out. And what I mean by cleaning 39 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:03,680 Speaker 1: things up, I mean just silly penalties, just not be 40 00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 1: attention to detail. And I can go through a bunch 41 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:10,920 Speaker 1: of those as we go. So I wasn't comfortable with 42 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:12,800 Speaker 1: the way the game was being played. I was just 43 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 1: comfortable with the lead, but I also was going, again, 44 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 1: it's only two scores there, you know, I mean, particularly 45 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,840 Speaker 1: with two point conversions and stuff along the way at 46 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 1: the time of possession was off the charts still in 47 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:25,280 Speaker 1: the first half for Tennessee, it's two games in a row, 48 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:27,920 Speaker 1: and so for me, the Seahawks, we're just not They 49 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 1: weren't sustaining enough drives. I really did think defensively, though, 50 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:34,919 Speaker 1: they're gonna have to throw the football, We're gonna get 51 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 1: after them. And obviously that's not what happened in the 52 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 1: second half. Quite the opposite, quite the opposite second half. 53 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:44,079 Speaker 1: Chris Carson also didn't touch the football as much. He 54 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:47,639 Speaker 1: did have two touchdowns in the first half, but that 55 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:51,160 Speaker 1: that doesn't really reflect how he played. Are the opportunities 56 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 1: that he got a positive Tyler Lockett had another great 57 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,799 Speaker 1: game over one hundred and seventy yards, two touchdowns. Excuse me, 58 00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 1: just one touchdown, but a long touchdown sixty nine yards, 59 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:03,080 Speaker 1: another big play for fifty one yards. Russell Wilson played okay, 60 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,359 Speaker 1: twenty three to thirty one, three hundred and forty three yards, 61 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 1: two touchdowns. I think when you think of the player 62 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson, you just look at the overtime and you 63 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 1: look at the three passing plays that the Hawks came 64 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,520 Speaker 1: out with while backed up. And this week I've been 65 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 1: on a couple of shows and are always asking me 66 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:20,680 Speaker 1: who's the blame? But who's the blame? I'm someone blame. 67 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 1: That was the team, ail man. I mean the offense 68 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,240 Speaker 1: played well at times. The offense did not play well 69 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,640 Speaker 1: at times. The offense gave up now excuse me, defense 70 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 1: gave up a whole bunch of yards. But when it 71 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 1: was time and overtime, we get the offense the ball. 72 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 1: They gave the offense the ball. So I cannot play 73 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 1: blame on one side of the ball. I say this 74 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 1: was a true team loss, and that's not a cop out. 75 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 1: That's really how I see it. Yeah, I can even 76 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 1: throw special teams in there. You know. Obviously the missed 77 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 1: extra point was huge. I mean, we just scored again, 78 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 1: which would look like we're gonna have a fifteen point lead, 79 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 1: and that is that's different because now you do have 80 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:55,840 Speaker 1: to go get a two point conversion at one one 81 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,840 Speaker 1: of those touchdowns. If you're trying to catch up, but 82 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 1: we also had you know, two punts where they they 83 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: went into the end zone. You know, we didn't get 84 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 1: him inside the plus twenty, which changed his fuel position 85 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 1: on there too. So I'm not blaming him. I'm just 86 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 1: saying no one really played exceptional, and even Russell is 87 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 1: as good as Russell is. And again I thought he 88 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 1: played pretty well. He wasn't real sharp at the beginning. 89 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 1: I mean the first past the DK metcalf. You know, 90 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:25,039 Speaker 1: he's wide open on the sideline, he throws it a 91 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 1: little high, he catches it out of bound. So instead 92 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 1: of that coming up set third and two, third and 93 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:31,160 Speaker 1: three in the very first series, now we're at third 94 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 1: and ten and we come up a yard short. And 95 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 1: then the one where we got our opening field goal. 96 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:38,920 Speaker 1: You know, you got Tyler Lockett running a drag route 97 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 1: across the field to our rights. I guess if you 98 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 1: want to do that from left to right, and Russell's 99 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 1: rolling out and it's a tough throw. I mean most 100 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 1: human beings, that's a tough throw, but it's Russell Wilson. 101 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 1: I expect Russell to make any throw where there's a 102 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,640 Speaker 1: window open, and he was open. I guarantee Russell. I 103 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 1: should have hit him. There's a game right there. Man, 104 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 1: there's four points at the extra point there five points. 105 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 1: There's so many little plays in this game. And that's 106 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:07,279 Speaker 1: where why Pete. I guarant Pete couldn't sleep because he's 107 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 1: going the a tension to detail the silliness. After the game, 108 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 1: Week said youthful mistakes along the way, and one of 109 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:18,040 Speaker 1: them was Jordan Brooks. I mean, it's just the guy's 110 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 1: two three yards out of bounds, gives them the extra 111 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,920 Speaker 1: shove off send we get a fifteen yard penalty, So penalties. 112 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:27,039 Speaker 1: The beauty is win. Clean all that up that the 113 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:30,159 Speaker 1: talents there. I mean for us to jump out twenty 114 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,279 Speaker 1: four to nine, it means we're a good football team. 115 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:36,599 Speaker 1: I think the frustration is we gotta start putting teams away. 116 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 1: This is the NFL. Nobody goes away. Everybody's talented. I 117 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 1: don't even care if it's Jacksonville who we got later 118 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:44,920 Speaker 1: in the year. You better come with your a game. 119 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:48,039 Speaker 1: I think that's probably was the message this week. You 120 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,479 Speaker 1: have to put teams away, especially a team like the 121 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings who lost to the Bengals twenty seven to 122 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,920 Speaker 1: twenty four. That's three points lost to the Cardinals last 123 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:00,040 Speaker 1: week thirty four to thirty three. That's one point and 124 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 1: how to field goal to win the gamety seven yard 125 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 1: field and just then the kicker just pushed her right. 126 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,040 Speaker 1: So if there's any time to put a team away, 127 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 1: you have to start this week and learn from your 128 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 1: lessons from last week. And why because this is a 129 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:14,279 Speaker 1: good football team. They are owing two, but they have 130 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:16,360 Speaker 1: some guys on this roster who can get it done. 131 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 1: Say what you want about Kirk Cousins, Moyer, this guy 132 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 1: keeps his team in the ball game. I was on 133 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 1: a podcast with Nasa Chovy. He said he has a 134 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 1: QBR rating of ninety over how many years? Spit that 135 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:32,159 Speaker 1: stat for us, nast Essentially you date back to I 136 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:35,039 Speaker 1: forgot what year was any quarterback who's had a QBR 137 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 1: of over ninety active streaks, right, Number one was Peyton 138 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:40,840 Speaker 1: Manning during that Super Bowl run with the Broncos that 139 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,720 Speaker 1: first run. Number two is Kirk Cousins. He has sixteen 140 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 1: straight games with a QBR over ninety, second best in 141 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:50,280 Speaker 1: NFL history, second best in NFL history. Say what you want. 142 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:51,919 Speaker 1: He might not win the big games, but you know what, 143 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 1: he'll win a couple of games. And they'll tell you 144 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 1: how you like that. Well, now with that, we know 145 00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:57,920 Speaker 1: they've got guys that can throw to I think that 146 00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson, the kid last year, is a real at LSU. 147 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 1: I mean we saw him on film and went, WHOA. Okay, 148 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 1: I see why they traded Diggs to Buffalo. Not that 149 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,080 Speaker 1: that was a good trade because Diggs is they could 150 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:11,120 Speaker 1: have used him too, but you know, get a younger guy. 151 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 1: You gotta Adam Thalian as well. You know they've got 152 00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 1: I mean Dalvin Cook who has a sprained ankle. You know, 153 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 1: we're gonna be looking at their offense mostly because they've 154 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 1: got guys on the defense. They've got a really good secondary. 155 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 1: They've they've had it. We kind of had their number, 156 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 1: even though every game seems to be close or you 157 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 1: will come back. And this goes back to the playoffs 158 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 1: a few years ago when they missed an easy chip 159 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 1: shot field goal probably to win it. It's gonna be 160 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:41,000 Speaker 1: a tough game. It's Minnesota's home opener there. They are 161 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 1: excited to be back indoors and have all the fans 162 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 1: as well. It's a really good football team. And we 163 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 1: said the same thing last weekends about Tennessee. Forget their loss, 164 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 1: forget how they got destroyed by Arizona. People make adjustment. 165 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 1: This is the League of adjustments, and you've got to 166 00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 1: be ready every week. You gotta be ready to go positive. 167 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 1: Hawks are six and oh their last six against Minnesota, 168 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 1: So there's some positives there. But you mentioned some of 169 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 1: the guys. You got os Born who's leading the charge 170 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 1: right now, the receiving core fifteen receptions, one hundred seventy 171 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 1: sixty seven yards and one touchdown, justin Jefferson, Adam Feelin 172 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 1: who just scores touchdowns. He's got three touchdowns one hundred 173 00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 1: and thirty one yards, and Dalvin Cookman. This is the 174 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 1: second week in a row they're going up against a 175 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 1: top five, maybe eight running back in the league. Now 176 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 1: their run game looks a big different. There's a lot 177 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 1: more power, a lot more trap, a lot more guards 178 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:32,320 Speaker 1: pulling leading with fullbacks. They're gonna have to get downhill 179 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:34,679 Speaker 1: hit this guy. He has big play ability, just like 180 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 1: Derek Henry Well, he's also dangerous out of the backfield. 181 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 1: They use him in the passing game. He's got a 182 00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 1: sprained ankle. I was just reading that he is expected 183 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:47,760 Speaker 1: to play. They're gonna go with him. You know, Look, 184 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:49,840 Speaker 1: it's hard to play in the sleep. You can get 185 00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:52,720 Speaker 1: hurt in a game and play exceptionally well. It's hard 186 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:56,960 Speaker 1: to come during the week, be hurt and then play 187 00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 1: a great game. You know. The adrenaline usually gets you 188 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 1: through a game when you're nicked up. It's much tough 189 00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 1: for going into one. So and I will talk more 190 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 1: about the Seahawks obviously break that down also, but just 191 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:10,000 Speaker 1: talk everybody off the ledge. We're gonna be okay. We 192 00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:12,679 Speaker 1: got a really good football team. Yes, we just didn't 193 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:14,960 Speaker 1: close the deal last week. You got to close the deal. 194 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,440 Speaker 1: You have to learn from your mistakes. That's why you 195 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:19,400 Speaker 1: have a week to prepare in football. You get to 196 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,679 Speaker 1: look at film, critique yourself. Your coaches are going to 197 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 1: critique you. They are going to challenge you. Pie's gonna 198 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:27,480 Speaker 1: challenge Russ. Russ gonna challenge his line. That's just how 199 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,839 Speaker 1: a functional team works. That is Sorr. I'm gonna jump 200 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:32,600 Speaker 1: in real quick before before we go to break here, 201 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 1: I just want to correct myself for everyone looking at 202 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:38,200 Speaker 1: their stats. It's the longest streak of consecutive games with 203 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:41,679 Speaker 1: a ninety plus passer rating in NFL history not QBR 204 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 1: passer rating. Eton Manning is twenty three in a row 205 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 1: from twenty twelve to twenty thirteen. Kirk Cousins is number 206 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 1: two all time, sixteen games in a row from twenty 207 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 1: twenty currently active. So we're gonna get a good game 208 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 1: from more than likely as usual as you. Okay, when 209 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 1: we return, we'll get an opponent preview from Matt Caller 210 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:02,120 Speaker 1: from the Purple Side dot Com. That's next right here 211 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 1: on Hawks Live. Welcome back to Hawks Live with me, 212 00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 1: Michael Bumpus and my guy Paul Moyer every Thursday. We'll 213 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:11,320 Speaker 1: be right here, and now we get to talk to 214 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 1: Matthew Caller from the Purple Insider. Matthew, how you doing? 215 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:18,040 Speaker 1: I am doing good man. I'm excited for this game. 216 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 1: It should be a great game. Now. The people out 217 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:23,600 Speaker 1: here who aren't really doing their homework on the Minnesota 218 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:25,720 Speaker 1: Vikings are going to see this O and two team 219 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 1: and say, oh yeah, they should get this win. Now. 220 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 1: They lost close loss to the Bengals, close loss to 221 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 1: the Cardinals. Tell me that this is a good football team, 222 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:37,200 Speaker 1: Matt Well, I can't tell you for sure that's a 223 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:41,160 Speaker 1: good football team, because there have been enough weaknesses, especially 224 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:44,040 Speaker 1: in their defense. To question now, it has been some 225 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:47,720 Speaker 1: bad luck. Dalvin Cook fumbled in overtime to set up 226 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,720 Speaker 1: the Cincinnati win, and then a wide right field goal 227 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 1: was the cause of the loss against Arizona, but they 228 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:56,559 Speaker 1: also gave up sixty one points on defense, and Kyler 229 00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: Murray through for four hundred yards and probably could have 230 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 1: put up more or had he not thrown it right 231 00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 1: to a Vikings linebacker for a pick six. So now 232 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 1: they face a very similar quarterback but a better version 233 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:10,560 Speaker 1: of Kyler Murray and Russell Wilson, which I think will 234 00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 1: be a very tough task for a defense that is 235 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 1: supposed to be rebuilt and revamped and brand new and shiny. 236 00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:18,720 Speaker 1: But it hasn't really looked like that. It's looked a 237 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:22,440 Speaker 1: lot like last year. That said, the Vikings are very 238 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,680 Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans ish. They run the ball extremely well with 239 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:28,760 Speaker 1: Delvin Cook, assuming he's healthy, he has miss practice, and 240 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 1: they've been throwing the ball about as well as I've 241 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,440 Speaker 1: seen from Kirk Cousins, and so I think their offense 242 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 1: is a little more dynamic and dangerous than it was 243 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:38,080 Speaker 1: last year, and that would be I think the reason 244 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:42,080 Speaker 1: that Seattle should be concerned. You know, the Minnesota has 245 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:44,079 Speaker 1: always been scary for a Seattle and you know we've 246 00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 1: had some great games, you know, going back to the 247 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 1: playoffs a few years ago in Minnesota. Let's let's talk 248 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 1: a little bit on this defense because they're their rankings. 249 00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 1: As you just mentioned, they've they've given up some yards 250 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:57,560 Speaker 1: like the Seahawks. But man, it feels like on paper, 251 00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:00,880 Speaker 1: both of these teams defensively should be much better. Share 252 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:03,560 Speaker 1: where maybe some of that breakdown's going because they've got 253 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 1: big names. Knowing you're right, yeah, I think that the 254 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:12,200 Speaker 1: biggest issue is that secondaries are kind of a weak 255 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:15,480 Speaker 1: link system. So if somebody is having a bad time, 256 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,200 Speaker 1: the opponent will figure this out and attack them. And 257 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:20,920 Speaker 1: we actually saw that from Seattle a couple of years 258 00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:23,200 Speaker 1: ago when Xavier Rhodes was trying to play through an 259 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:25,560 Speaker 1: injury and it seemed that the word was out and 260 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:27,720 Speaker 1: they just threw Adam and threw Adam and threw Adam. 261 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:30,080 Speaker 1: And well, this year, I mean it's been bashad Brelan. 262 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,080 Speaker 1: It's also been a couple of communication issues and when 263 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:36,560 Speaker 1: you add all new names to the secondary outside of 264 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 1: Harrison Smith, they've all got to figure out exactly how 265 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 1: Mike Zimmer wants them to play every scenario, every route combination, 266 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:46,280 Speaker 1: every situation, and what we saw last week was a 267 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:49,400 Speaker 1: couple of breakdowns can result in a seventy seven yard 268 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,680 Speaker 1: touchdown or something like that. And nobody's better than Seattle 269 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:56,000 Speaker 1: at taking advantage of a breakdown and having Russell Wilson 270 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:58,760 Speaker 1: drop a fifty yard bomb. And I think that's the 271 00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 1: biggest concern for the by The other thing is too 272 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:03,679 Speaker 1: that you know, there's big names and Daniel Hunter has 273 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 1: come back extremely strong, but there's also some guys that 274 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 1: you go, maybe that's not really gonna work. I mean, 275 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 1: they've put their trust in a fourth round or DJ 276 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 1: want him to start Across from Hunter, he's kind of 277 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 1: been a no show in these first couple of weeks. 278 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:21,840 Speaker 1: Their big idea in the offseason was to sign two well, 279 00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:24,199 Speaker 1: to sign one run stuffer in Dalvid Thompson, and then 280 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:27,200 Speaker 1: bring back Michael Pierce, who has sat out for COVID 281 00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:29,920 Speaker 1: concerns from the year before. So their big idea was 282 00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:32,720 Speaker 1: to stuff the run. Stuff the run, and that means 283 00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 1: that you sacrifice something in the past rush, right, And 284 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:37,960 Speaker 1: so I think we've seen a lot of clean pockets 285 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:41,080 Speaker 1: for opposing quarterbacks take advantage. And even though they have 286 00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:44,720 Speaker 1: all this talent, they have enough weak links to be problematic. 287 00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 1: All right, Matthew, I'm gonna do something that we normally 288 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 1: don't do. We're gonna talk about kickers. Man. Greg Joseph 289 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:53,160 Speaker 1: had an interesting Sunday. He missed a game winning field goal, 290 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 1: but he had a couple of fifty two yard field goals. 291 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 1: He also hit a big fifty three yard field goal 292 00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 1: to force overtime in Week one. How's the media treat 293 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 1: this kicker over there in Minnesota. Well, I don't know 294 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 1: how close you guys have followed the NBA, but there's 295 00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 1: been some drama here with the NBA teams that has 296 00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:13,439 Speaker 1: caused sort of Greg Joseph to maybe a void of 297 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:19,840 Speaker 1: being in the thing that is haunted the Vikings for 298 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:23,680 Speaker 1: so long. With these kickers. Go back to Gary Anderson 299 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:26,480 Speaker 1: miss a wide left in the NFC Championship game. You 300 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 1: are very well familiar with. Blair Walsh has missed in 301 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 1: the playoffs in two fifteen. Last year, Dan Bailey, a 302 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 1: long proven kicker, melted down for this team and they 303 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 1: lost some games because of it. I mean, it's just 304 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:42,880 Speaker 1: been something that is so perplexing and haunting for this 305 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 1: franchise that I wish I had an explanation. But this 306 00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 1: year they might have brought it on themselves. I mean, 307 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 1: they had no competition at all for Greg Joseph in 308 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 1: the preseason and training camp, which I don't understand because 309 00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:56,600 Speaker 1: he hadn't kicked in the NFL's twenty eighteen So I 310 00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 1: guess it wasn't super shocking to see a complete no 311 00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 1: name kick come up small in the biggest moment. But 312 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:06,040 Speaker 1: I think biking stands mostly just kind of nodded their heads, like, yeah, 313 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 1: that's about what we expected from a kicker. Well, one 314 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:12,080 Speaker 1: person who's been pretty consistent is Kirk Cousins, and he, 315 00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 1: you know, he takes a lot of heat, but you 316 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 1: know he is second all time for most quarterback or 317 00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 1: quarterback grade of ninety or more, you know, a sixteen 318 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:24,760 Speaker 1: consecutive games than only Peyton Manning had a longer streak. Yeah, 319 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 1: so what's the take there. I mean, he's having a 320 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:30,080 Speaker 1: great year. He's got five touchdowns, no interceptions, quarterback rading 321 00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:34,080 Speaker 1: around one twelve. Just to take there, and how people 322 00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 1: are feeling about Kirk Cousins, Yeah, I think that with 323 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins. By now everybody kind of knows exactly what 324 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 1: you have there, like they know the strength and the 325 00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 1: weakness is. This is not Russell Wilson. Outside of the pocket. 326 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,720 Speaker 1: When he's got a clean pocket, when he's got time 327 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 1: to throw, when he's in favorable situations like second and short, 328 00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:57,640 Speaker 1: first to ten, third and short, he can operate as 329 00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:00,480 Speaker 1: well as anybody in the league. But when anything goes 330 00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 1: a little awry, if Delvin Cook isn't running the football 331 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,400 Speaker 1: very well at the offensive lines getting beat up a 332 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 1: little bit, that's when we start to see Cousins get 333 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 1: a little shaky and a little panicky. And there's also 334 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 1: the Cousins coaster that they call it here, because he'll 335 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:18,480 Speaker 1: have the best month you've ever seen and he'll win 336 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 1: Player of the Month, and then he'll leave the league 337 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:23,280 Speaker 1: in interceptions the next month. And that's what happened last year. 338 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 1: He started the season kind of the opposite of this year, 339 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:27,960 Speaker 1: very poorly out of the gate, led the league in 340 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 1: interceptions for the first six weeks and got his team 341 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 1: to one in five. And I think the concern is 342 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:35,320 Speaker 1: that he had two very good games out of Kirk 343 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 1: Cousins and you lost both of them. So if the 344 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:42,640 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins coaster has a dip against Seattle, for example, 345 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 1: or Cleveland, who they play next week, I mean, he's 346 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 1: are must win games now, and if he has one 347 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 1: of those games where he's just no shows, you're talking 348 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 1: about your season kind of being over if you get 349 00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:55,680 Speaker 1: to oh in three, and definitely over if you get 350 00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:57,920 Speaker 1: to how and four. So I think that you know, 351 00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 1: there's always these Cousins debates that go on, but I 352 00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 1: think after you see enough of them, you kind of 353 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:05,680 Speaker 1: get why he's a five hundred quarterback. But this ceiling, 354 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:09,119 Speaker 1: especially when he plays a questionable defense like Seattle, the 355 00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:13,000 Speaker 1: ceiling is that Cousins could play extremely well, and I 356 00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:15,440 Speaker 1: think that for this game he should because of kind 357 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:18,199 Speaker 1: of the makeup of Seattle's defense. All right, let's talk 358 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:21,160 Speaker 1: about a guy who benefits directly from Kirk Cousins. Second 359 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:24,720 Speaker 1: year guy kJ Osborne is leading the team twelve receptions, 360 00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:27,679 Speaker 1: one hundred and sixty seven yards, one touchdown. Have you 361 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:30,320 Speaker 1: guys been expecting this type of performs from this young 362 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 1: man or are you guys surprised at his performance? You know, 363 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 1: I you know, I think we weren't surprised because in 364 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:41,639 Speaker 1: OTA's mini camp training camp he was just excellent. And 365 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:45,640 Speaker 1: the thing that happened was Jefin Jefferson got hurt in 366 00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:48,200 Speaker 1: the training camp. He went down with an ac joint 367 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 1: issue that has not been hindering him so far in 368 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 1: the season, but he had to sit out a couple 369 00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,720 Speaker 1: of weeks with his shoulder injury, and that gave kJ 370 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 1: Osbourne an opportunity to step into that starting wide receiver 371 00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:02,400 Speaker 1: every day and practiced him. We just saw him make 372 00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:05,119 Speaker 1: play after play after playings that like, I know, this 373 00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:08,880 Speaker 1: guy's a fifth rounder and really only had one year 374 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:11,440 Speaker 1: of playing at a super high level with Miami, and 375 00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 1: yet we taught him, you know, stepping up to the 376 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 1: challenge here. And this is something that the Vikings desperately 377 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 1: needed because IRV Smith Junior was supposed to be a 378 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 1: huge part of this offense and Irv Smith got hurt 379 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,280 Speaker 1: with a knee injury that is keeping him out the 380 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 1: entire season. So you know, they needed someone to step up. 381 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:31,240 Speaker 1: And they they've had to adapt their offense from a 382 00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 1: two tight end offense now to a three wide offense, 383 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:36,439 Speaker 1: and if they didn't have I don't know where they 384 00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:38,600 Speaker 1: would be through these couple of weeks, and I think 385 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:42,480 Speaker 1: they may have found something with IRV Smith going down 386 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:44,480 Speaker 1: and then you know kJ having to step to the 387 00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 1: play only got about a minute. I know Dalvin Cooks 388 00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:53,359 Speaker 1: got the sprained ankle. What's the status on him. Yeah, 389 00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:55,159 Speaker 1: I think it's a little tricky. I mean, I think 390 00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:58,479 Speaker 1: they're taking a lot of caution with it because he 391 00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 1: hasn't practiced at all, and that's certainly a red flag. 392 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:04,159 Speaker 1: I'm usually guys are limited. If there's a chance that 393 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 1: there's they're going to play. So we're gonna find out 394 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:09,359 Speaker 1: tomorrow when we show up the practice if he's practicing, 395 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:11,440 Speaker 1: even on a limited basis, I think there's a great 396 00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 1: chance that he goes. And Mike Zimmer basically said, look, 397 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:16,680 Speaker 1: if he could play, you know, we're gonna ride Galvin Cook. 398 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 1: And that's no secret it's being on out to the 399 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks. But it's definitely something to watch because when 400 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:25,240 Speaker 1: Cook has been injured in the past and tried to 401 00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 1: play through it, it has not been the same guy. 402 00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:30,840 Speaker 1: All Right, great information there from Matthew Caller from The 403 00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:34,760 Speaker 1: Purple Insider Man.

And man, my first question to you, man, 416 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:11,960 Speaker 1: I'm a California kid, and growing up California, we all 417 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 1: thought we played the best football. The older I get, 418 00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:16,959 Speaker 1: the more I see I'm Texas Boys or something else? Man, 419 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:20,760 Speaker 1: what is it about Texas football? And then we just 420 00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 1: do a bigger well you know, you know I'm biased, man, Oh, 421 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:32,480 Speaker 1: I gotta be all right. Well, what's amazing is uh 422 00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:35,239 Speaker 1: we had h Kyle Fuller on last week and matter 423 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:37,560 Speaker 1: of fact, I think our three guests so far this year, 424 00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:41,359 Speaker 1: everybody's been from Texas and it is pretty amazing. So 425 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:45,399 Speaker 1: growing up, I mean you're from Austin. I'm assuming you 426 00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:47,560 Speaker 1: are a long Horn fan, so you had that whole 427 00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:52,479 Speaker 1: recruiting process go for you. I would in cool, you know, um, 428 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 1: you know, you know, growing up you kind of always 429 00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:58,160 Speaker 1: think about going there. But you know I worked out 430 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:00,720 Speaker 1: from that, I'm going to Texas Tech, and uh, you know, 431 00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:03,160 Speaker 1: kind of the best decision that happened for me. You know, 432 00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:05,680 Speaker 1: growing up, growing up down the street, you know, you're 433 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:07,959 Speaker 1: all kind of excusing yourself going to that other school, 434 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, I was just happy. 435 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:13,240 Speaker 1: Am I going to Texas? Take now, Karen, You've had 436 00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:15,959 Speaker 1: a nice journey in the NFL. You moved on from 437 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,280 Speaker 1: Dallas in twenty eighteen, and you have a breakout season 438 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:22,919 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty. But with the forty nine ers, what happened, 439 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:24,800 Speaker 1: Like what clicked in your game? Was it something that 440 00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 1: you've always had in you that you're just waiting to 441 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:29,160 Speaker 1: really show the world what clicked with you to allow 442 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:33,200 Speaker 1: you to play so greatly. The NFL is full of 443 00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:35,439 Speaker 1: great players, man, It's just a lot of times it 444 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:37,920 Speaker 1: comes down an opportunity. When you get the opportunity to play, 445 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,720 Speaker 1: then you've got to give a jaw. You know, everyone 446 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:43,520 Speaker 1: every team gots talent. You know, when you got opportunities, 447 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:46,600 Speaker 1: you got to show your stuff. And I got an 448 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:48,720 Speaker 1: opportunity to play. You know that they had some guys 449 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 1: go down and I distrust them to the starting lineup, 450 00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:54,320 Speaker 1: and I just I was ready for that moment. I 451 00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:56,879 Speaker 1: think everybody thought the forty nine ers are going to 452 00:21:56,960 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 1: resign you. Um, and there are some things that went 453 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:02,960 Speaker 1: down there. How did you end up being a Seahawk? 454 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:07,880 Speaker 1: I know there's a lot of stories on that one. Um. 455 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:10,879 Speaker 1: You know, it's a competitive game, and you know teams 456 00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:12,920 Speaker 1: are always trying to make themselves better in that kind 457 00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:18,240 Speaker 1: of game. Seattle came calling. You know, you know, I 458 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:19,959 Speaker 1: kind of you kind of thought you were gonna end 459 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 1: up somewhere to bull the business, you never know for 460 00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:25,800 Speaker 1: sure where you're gonna end up, especially free agency, and 461 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,760 Speaker 1: Seattle came calling. It seemed like a perfect fifth feeling. 462 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 1: I care, you guys took a tough loss to the Titans, 463 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:33,639 Speaker 1: a game that I know you guys felt like you 464 00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 1: could have won. What's the vibe like in v mag? 465 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:40,560 Speaker 1: What's the approach this week? Next week? You know, uh, 466 00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:43,400 Speaker 1: we watched the tape, you know, you know, as a group, 467 00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:45,120 Speaker 1: we kind of felt like we gonna let one get away, 468 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:47,680 Speaker 1: but then finish your game strong. But uh, we're really 469 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 1: focused on this week. We really want to you know, 470 00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 1: get back on track. Game. It's played four quarters, you know, 471 00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 1: we you know, we played a good half last week, 472 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:57,040 Speaker 1: but he just didn't finish the game. So as we 473 00:22:57,080 --> 00:23:00,479 Speaker 1: get focused on just playing for four quarters and as 474 00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:03,359 Speaker 1: finish now, I will win. I know last week obviously 475 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:05,119 Speaker 1: it didn't go the way you guys wanted to. But 476 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 1: what was it like finally playing in front of the 477 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:11,400 Speaker 1: twelve at Looming Field that you know that maybe even 478 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:14,480 Speaker 1: compared a little to where San Francisco versus the Seahawks 479 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:20,000 Speaker 1: with a home crowd. You know, I know it's hard 480 00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:22,280 Speaker 1: for the offense to communicate when you know the crowd 481 00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:25,120 Speaker 1: is as loud as it is, But for defensive player, 482 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:27,680 Speaker 1: it was new for me. I couldn't hear my players 483 00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 1: next to me, I couldn't hear Bobby talking, I couldn't 484 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:32,399 Speaker 1: hear those things. So I was the first time for 485 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 1: me out there and really hearing the twelves like that, 486 00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:37,959 Speaker 1: And man, it was electric out there. Man, I couldn't. 487 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 1: I couldn't hear I couldn't hear the person next to 488 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:42,960 Speaker 1: me out there. So that's you know, you can't you 489 00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:45,600 Speaker 1: can't really prepare for it. You just gotta get into it, 490 00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:48,800 Speaker 1: you know.

And I know that's got to keep 558 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:18,920 Speaker 1: you really preoccupied on your free time. Oh yeah, man, 559 00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:21,880 Speaker 1: when I'm not playing football, I'm my dad dude, just 560 00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:23,680 Speaker 1: trying to, you know, do my part. You know, during 561 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 1: the season, it's hard to get to the time you 562 00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:28,600 Speaker 1: want to get in. So I try to maximize my 563 00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:31,640 Speaker 1: time and hold it. Try some time my father when 564 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:33,879 Speaker 1: I worked in I feel you, man, you need a 565 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 1: woman to hold you down most definitely. Now let's talk 566 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:39,960 Speaker 1: about these Vikings real quick. Man. When when you look 567 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:42,280 Speaker 1: at this film, what do you see in the Minnesota 568 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:47,920 Speaker 1: Vikings physical bunch? You know, obviously Dalvincase is a great 569 00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 1: running back, and uh, it's gonna take a team effort. 570 00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:52,960 Speaker 1: You know, we just can't you know, use a lot 571 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,000 Speaker 1: like Garek Henry in a lot of ways where he 572 00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:56,760 Speaker 1: can you know, he can hit the home run ball 573 00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:59,680 Speaker 1: and again make a lot of plays. So a lot 574 00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:02,479 Speaker 1: of the offense once to them. So we just you know, 575 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:04,520 Speaker 1: we're gonna take a group effort. You know, we had 576 00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:07,639 Speaker 1: to stop to run and Russian coverage got to work together. 577 00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:11,320 Speaker 1: You know. I know this kind of sounds like something 578 00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:13,600 Speaker 1: people say every week, but you know that's the basis 579 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:15,359 Speaker 1: of defense. You gotta stop to run and we gotta 580 00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:18,720 Speaker 1: get out to the quarterback whenever we can. Well, you 581 00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:21,639 Speaker 1: got you again. Last week wasn't how you wanted it? Um, 582 00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:24,240 Speaker 1: what do is tell the truth? Monday? Like? And then 583 00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:26,840 Speaker 1: this is your first year there, supposedly it's a it's 584 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:30,240 Speaker 1: a very open and let's be honest with each other. Yeah, 585 00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:33,000 Speaker 1: what what came out of Monday's meeting for you? Because 586 00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:36,760 Speaker 1: you guys are too talented defensively, you know to have 587 00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:41,120 Speaker 1: two hundred yards on you. Well, we just you know, 588 00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:43,840 Speaker 1: we just gotta do better a fenision four quarters. You know, 589 00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 1: we teams are too good in this league for us 590 00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:48,480 Speaker 1: to beat ourselves. So there's an opportunity for us to 591 00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:51,600 Speaker 1: make the play or not do something to cause something negatives. 592 00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:53,800 Speaker 1: We gotta we gotta do it because you know, you 593 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:55,960 Speaker 1: let it's a good team like that standing too long 594 00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:59,440 Speaker 1: and we can make some minimal mistakes, they're gonna capitalize 595 00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:03,120 Speaker 1: on it. Looking at the stills in the mirror and 596 00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:05,480 Speaker 1: letting us know that you know, like, hey, we played. 597 00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:07,040 Speaker 1: We played a decent game, but we hat to play 598 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:09,200 Speaker 1: full quarters. We came to give games away like that, 599 00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 1: especially plead. That's a great thing about the NFL carry 600 00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:15,200 Speaker 1: you always bounce back the following a week. Man. We 601 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 1: expect you guys to do that. We appreciate you taking 602 00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:20,240 Speaker 1: time out of your day.

That was Carrie Hireder. When 606 00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:29,680 Speaker 1: we return, we're gonna talk to the professor. I'm gonna 607 00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:32,160 Speaker 1: ask him about this Thursday night football game. Are the 608 00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:34,760 Speaker 1: Hawks still continues? Moria have some question for him as well. 609 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:37,560 Speaker 1: That's next right here on Hawks Live. Welcome back to 610 00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:41,120 Speaker 1: Hawks Live. It is seven forty five. That means we're 611 00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 1: gonna talk to the professor John Klain John, no funk 612 00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:45,680 Speaker 1: music for you today, But we know what time it is. 613 00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:49,040 Speaker 1: Oh no, absolutely, time to get into the funk, time 614 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,240 Speaker 1: to get into it all right, John, are you watching 615 00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:55,320 Speaker 1: this Thursday night football game? Unfortunately, I'm looking at Sam 616 00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:58,840 Speaker 1: Donald and he is twenty to twenty nine, twenty sixty 617 00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:02,680 Speaker 1: two yards. Do you think this guy can resurrect his 618 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:05,440 Speaker 1: career so early, I guess in his career and really 619 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:08,000 Speaker 1: have a good a good career overall, a good career. 620 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:09,240 Speaker 1: I don't know if he's gonna have a great career. 621 00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:12,200 Speaker 1: I don't think he's being the third pick in the draft. 622 00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:14,400 Speaker 1: I mean because again, I mean, you can see some 623 00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:17,600 Speaker 1: inconsistencies in his game, but again I think you can 624 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:20,720 Speaker 1: see that, you know, he's certainly better now in Carol 625 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:22,840 Speaker 1: Lineman than he was with Adam Gays in the New 626 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:25,280 Speaker 1: York Jets. I mean, he's you know, you can see 627 00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:27,920 Speaker 1: his running ability. It's a shame that that holding penalty 628 00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:31,400 Speaker 1: by number seventy five took away the thirty three yard 629 00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:34,000 Speaker 1: run because that would have helped. But again, it's like 630 00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:37,440 Speaker 1: you're playing the Houston Texans team and I think I 631 00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:39,840 Speaker 1: had to just walk down before they made the field goal, right, 632 00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:44,080 Speaker 1: so it's seventeen. Yeah, got seventeen seventeen six. So it's like, 633 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 1: you know, at least they were able to you know, 634 00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:49,040 Speaker 1: they're not scoring enough points against a bad Houston team 635 00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:53,560 Speaker 1: that basically has absolutely and totally no offense. With that 636 00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:56,160 Speaker 1: being said, though, John, I mean, they're about to go 637 00:30:56,280 --> 00:30:58,600 Speaker 1: three and oh Carolina. Yeah, and they did be they 638 00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 1: blew out in New Orleans, who blew out you know, 639 00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:05,200 Speaker 1: Green Bay? I mean, again, another weird year of NFL football. 640 00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:07,200 Speaker 1: It's you know, what have you done for me lately? 641 00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:09,800 Speaker 1: But you know, would that be the surprise team so 642 00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:11,520 Speaker 1: far this year? If they go three and oh? I 643 00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:13,160 Speaker 1: had to do a thing for the Washington Post this 644 00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:15,480 Speaker 1: year or this last week. We had to rate to 645 00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:18,240 Speaker 1: seven and oh teams and I rated them number seven, 646 00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:20,240 Speaker 1: and I said that they had a chance to be 647 00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:22,720 Speaker 1: one of the surprise teams in the league. Now I 648 00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 1: think we need to see more. In fact, I even 649 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:29,240 Speaker 1: suggested that, uh, you know, I if if they won, 650 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:31,320 Speaker 1: and I don't know, I might need to have another 651 00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:33,840 Speaker 1: week just to make sure. But it's like I actually 652 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:36,760 Speaker 1: suggested that, you know, I do a story next week 653 00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:40,960 Speaker 1: for the Post with Scott Fitter on uh just fitter 654 00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 1: to basically talk about where this team is because you know, 655 00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:47,560 Speaker 1: darnold of all the quarterback acquisitions and now we're up 656 00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:50,240 Speaker 1: to what fourteen new quarterbacks in the league looks to 657 00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:53,880 Speaker 1: be among the best, and that looks good. And then 658 00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:59,760 Speaker 1: you can see that their Phil Snow is just amazing 659 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:03,480 Speaker 1: the blitz packages and everything else. He's their defensive coordinator. 660 00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:06,240 Speaker 1: Nobody knows who he is, but Phil Snows and one 661 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:09,760 Speaker 1: is designing these blitz packages and they're much better on offense. 662 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:11,760 Speaker 1: And so it's like, uh, you know, it's not maybe 663 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:15,040 Speaker 1: showing tonight, but again, I like this team, all right, John, 664 00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:18,240 Speaker 1: I must shipped over to the Seattle Seahawks. Tyler Lockett 665 00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:21,040 Speaker 1: is having a great year. Twelve receptions, twenty seventy yards, 666 00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 1: three touchdowns. I know it's early, but do you think 667 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:26,600 Speaker 1: that he can keep this pace up and be the 668 00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:29,400 Speaker 1: seahawks number one receiver throughout the year. I wouldn't. I 669 00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 1: wouldn't think not. I mean again, you know, technically you 670 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:34,960 Speaker 1: can always say, even though Metcalf has had big numbers 671 00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:37,640 Speaker 1: and big plays down field, that Tyler Lockett has been 672 00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 1: the number one receiver all along. You know, it's like 673 00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:43,840 Speaker 1: both of I mean, you know, Metcalf certainly gets the 674 00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:47,520 Speaker 1: you know, accolades because he's so big and he makes 675 00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:49,720 Speaker 1: so many big plays and all that stuff. But I 676 00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:52,760 Speaker 1: think that you weigh the big plays that Lockett makes 677 00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:56,240 Speaker 1: in the incredible runs that he has puts them into 678 00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 1: rare spot. I mean, he's been in the NFL Top 679 00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:01,080 Speaker 1: one hundred now from the NFL Fill Network for what 680 00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:04,680 Speaker 1: two three years, and he's been a Pro Bowl alternate 681 00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:07,200 Speaker 1: for several several years. You know the way he's going 682 00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:09,280 Speaker 1: right now, particularly if a good over one hundred catches, 683 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:11,200 Speaker 1: you know, because again, say what you want, it's like 684 00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:15,000 Speaker 1: he did have more catches last year than DK Medcalf, 685 00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:17,000 Speaker 1: and I wouldn't you know. It's like, sure, you can 686 00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:19,880 Speaker 1: maybe make the argument that both are number ones, but 687 00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:22,280 Speaker 1: right now you'd have to say that I still think 688 00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:25,080 Speaker 1: you would consider Tyler Olaka the number one receiver on 689 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:28,360 Speaker 1: the team, even though DK Medcalf has so much more talent. 690 00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:31,640 Speaker 1: It's interesting you get near, you know, second third year, 691 00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:34,320 Speaker 1: you got you gotta adjust, and then DK's finding out 692 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:37,320 Speaker 1: again jos he did last year. But let's let's talk 693 00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:39,720 Speaker 1: about something that again I thought I hurt in the Seahawks. 694 00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:41,600 Speaker 1: We didn't have a lot of injuries last week, but 695 00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:43,480 Speaker 1: I thought we had some key ones, particularly on the 696 00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:47,600 Speaker 1: defensive line. Brian Money, you know, tough running game. Where 697 00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:49,840 Speaker 1: are we with some injuries right now? Well, I mean 698 00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 1: right now, it certainly looks questionable as far as Brandon 699 00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:56,120 Speaker 1: Shell at right tackle because he didn't practice today because 700 00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:59,440 Speaker 1: of the ankle injury. You know. Yeah, Still you wonder 701 00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:03,840 Speaker 1: about Dwayne Estridge because again, you know, a concussion should 702 00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:06,680 Speaker 1: be okay after one week, but he's still been struggling 703 00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:08,640 Speaker 1: a little bit with that, so that's going to be 704 00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:11,600 Speaker 1: in question. You know, Damian Lewis sounds like he's in 705 00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:14,319 Speaker 1: better shape now. He's limited, but again that means he's 706 00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:16,480 Speaker 1: probably gonna be questionable, but he's got to be much 707 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:18,400 Speaker 1: better than he was last week where he had to 708 00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:22,400 Speaker 1: alternate with Jamarco Jones. But overall, I mean Rashad Penny 709 00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:24,359 Speaker 1: obviously he's not going to be able to play, and 710 00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:26,520 Speaker 1: so they're not in too bad of a shape. I 711 00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:28,799 Speaker 1: think as far as their injuries, you know, we'll see 712 00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:32,440 Speaker 1: where they are with you know, Freddie Swain Swayne has 713 00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:34,759 Speaker 1: the back injury, but he was limited today and I 714 00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:37,319 Speaker 1: can't imagine a back injury is going to keep a 715 00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:40,719 Speaker 1: fast receiver out of a game. John, The NFL did 716 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:44,040 Speaker 1: a great job a couple of years back allowing team celebrations, 717 00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:46,960 Speaker 1: having fun, right there were the No Fun League. Then 718 00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:49,879 Speaker 1: they mess up. They get a pass interference type call 719 00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:52,080 Speaker 1: in there where guys can challenge that. They mess that up. 720 00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:55,080 Speaker 1: They fixed that, So now it's the taunting, right, the 721 00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:57,720 Speaker 1: over emphasis on taunting. Do you think this is something 722 00:34:57,760 --> 00:34:59,880 Speaker 1: that the NFL is going to stick with? Are the 723 00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:02,080 Speaker 1: gonna make right eventually? Right now, they're gonna stick with 724 00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:04,560 Speaker 1: it because they're stubborn and you know, and each year 725 00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:07,960 Speaker 1: they'll come up with some rule change that's absolutely dumb, 726 00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:10,359 Speaker 1: and this one's really dumb. I mean, here's the thing 727 00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:13,120 Speaker 1: that's so bad about this. It's like, okay, so now 728 00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:16,720 Speaker 1: you have a taunting penalty, particularly something that's really innocent, 729 00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:18,680 Speaker 1: that's not going to cause a fight, you know, just 730 00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:22,960 Speaker 1: like you know DJ Reid and his little celebration that 731 00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:25,640 Speaker 1: he was turning was like, was that celebrating himself? Was 732 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:28,160 Speaker 1: he trying to show up the receiver who dropped the ball? 733 00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:29,760 Speaker 1: And I don't think he was showing up the receiver 734 00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:32,120 Speaker 1: dropped the ball. But here's the stupid part of it. 735 00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:35,240 Speaker 1: To add to the fact that they're doing this fifteen 736 00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:39,560 Speaker 1: yards fifteen yards for a taunting penalty, you're making this 737 00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:42,920 Speaker 1: the same as you know, knocking down the quarterback, knocking 738 00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:47,479 Speaker 1: a roughing, roughing running back, you know, helmet type hits. 739 00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:50,399 Speaker 1: I mean, you're making a taunting penalty where there's no 740 00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:53,600 Speaker 1: contact and making it a fifteen yard penalty. Now there's 741 00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:55,840 Speaker 1: been eleven of them, and I think what the Seahawks 742 00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:58,239 Speaker 1: have about twenty percent of them. But to me, it 743 00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:01,719 Speaker 1: is a waste of time. And again, you know, penalties 744 00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:05,000 Speaker 1: right now or at the stage where you know they've increased, 745 00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:07,879 Speaker 1: you know, maybe about ten to fifteen percent, there are 746 00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:11,200 Speaker 1: two thirty five after two weeks, and uh, you know, 747 00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:14,640 Speaker 1: the taunting penalties adds to it. And it's crazy. John, 748 00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:16,239 Speaker 1: I don't even know if you know this question, but 749 00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:20,400 Speaker 1: I'll ask it. Yeah, because when I think of rules 750 00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:23,240 Speaker 1: like this, like the I don't want to say targeting, 751 00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:24,920 Speaker 1: but you know, if you hit somebody too hard in 752 00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:28,400 Speaker 1: the NFL, now, you know, particularly defensively hits offensive guys 753 00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:31,440 Speaker 1: like receivers, they throw a penalty. I get that because 754 00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:34,759 Speaker 1: you're trying to protect a player, and the fans why 755 00:36:34,760 --> 00:36:37,080 Speaker 1: they don't like it. The NFL is going to go, 756 00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:40,279 Speaker 1: I get it, but we've got a bigger goal here. 757 00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:46,640 Speaker 1: The taunting one isn't about safety, and the fans hate it. 758 00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:51,480 Speaker 1: So I don't really get why wouldn't they go right 759 00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:54,319 Speaker 1: now middle of the year ago, this is a dumb thing. 760 00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:56,399 Speaker 1: Let's let's we don't have to change the rule, because 761 00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:58,239 Speaker 1: they really didn't change the rule. All we're doing is 762 00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:03,160 Speaker 1: emphasizing it. Now. Just let's take the emphasis off. Yeah. Yeah, 763 00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:04,960 Speaker 1: but I don't think they will because I think that 764 00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:06,879 Speaker 1: they're going to be stubborn about this, you know, once 765 00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:08,799 Speaker 1: they make a decision. You know, they stuck with the 766 00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:12,680 Speaker 1: you know, the stupid defensive interference rule and that challenge 767 00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:16,040 Speaker 1: and all that stuff until the entire season, until it 768 00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:19,200 Speaker 1: went to the NFC Championship game against the Rams and 769 00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:21,319 Speaker 1: the Saints had a call that should have gone their 770 00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:24,520 Speaker 1: way but didn't, and they end up going out going 771 00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:27,200 Speaker 1: to the super Bowl. And out of that they said, well, gee, 772 00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:29,239 Speaker 1: this costs the Saints the chance to go to the 773 00:37:29,239 --> 00:37:32,440 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. Let's take that rule away. And in this case, 774 00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:35,480 Speaker 1: I mean, you're getting too many penalty and again fifteen 775 00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:39,560 Speaker 1: yards for taunting and then not only fifteen yards, but 776 00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:42,000 Speaker 1: you now you put the player one half of the 777 00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:46,799 Speaker 1: way from being ejected. Yeah, it really doesn't make any sense. 778 00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:50,400 Speaker 1: Let's Minnesota real quick. Oh and two. Zimmer has probably 779 00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:54,239 Speaker 1: taking some heat here. Pretty good football team, John, I mean, 780 00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:56,279 Speaker 1: going on the road, this is our home opener. You know, 781 00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:58,680 Speaker 1: just your your thoughts on how how good of a 782 00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:01,719 Speaker 1: team were about to face? Who is actually owing two? Yeah, 783 00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:04,640 Speaker 1: I think their average because obviously they've got a pass rush, 784 00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:07,080 Speaker 1: particularly with the Neil Hunter, who's one of the best 785 00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:09,719 Speaker 1: in the league. And they've got really good linebackers, but 786 00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:12,279 Speaker 1: they're really shaky in the secondary. And that's been the 787 00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:14,279 Speaker 1: way for the last couple of years. I mean, you 788 00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:17,000 Speaker 1: think about the fact that, you know what they've in 789 00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:20,040 Speaker 1: the last like three years, four years, they've drafted two 790 00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:23,520 Speaker 1: first round picks at cornerback and they're no longer with 791 00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:26,200 Speaker 1: the team, and that's bad. And so it's like, I mean, 792 00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:28,440 Speaker 1: last year they were so young at line at cornerback 793 00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:30,640 Speaker 1: that they were just getting carved up. And I think 794 00:38:30,640 --> 00:38:33,120 Speaker 1: they're still at the stage right now where they're vulnerable 795 00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:35,759 Speaker 1: at the cornerback position. So that that has to be 796 00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:38,600 Speaker 1: a concern, and then they continue to not do well 797 00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:41,480 Speaker 1: on the offensive line. Then the other weird part, and 798 00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:43,319 Speaker 1: I have to double check this because I know that 799 00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:45,960 Speaker 1: you know, there was a stat out there that actually 800 00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:48,560 Speaker 1: was wrong that said the only two teams in the 801 00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:52,399 Speaker 1: league that have not played draft choices or even had 802 00:38:52,400 --> 00:38:55,720 Speaker 1: a draft choice snap was Seattle and Minnesota. But obviously 803 00:38:55,800 --> 00:38:57,680 Speaker 1: Dwayne Estridge has been on the field, so he's been 804 00:38:57,680 --> 00:39:00,960 Speaker 1: out there. But the Vikings had eleven drafty. I know 805 00:39:01,040 --> 00:39:04,880 Speaker 1: that you know Darres Saul the tackle he's hurt, and 806 00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:06,759 Speaker 1: if you've got a couple of other injuries, but how 807 00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:10,480 Speaker 1: can you draft eleven players and not play them? All? Right? 808 00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:12,920 Speaker 1: John's that time? What do you want to talk about? 809 00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:17,920 Speaker 1: I want to talk about what's going on with Josh Gordon? Rule? Okay, 810 00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:20,600 Speaker 1: what's going on with Josh Gordon? Well, Josh Gordon of course, 811 00:39:21,320 --> 00:39:24,120 Speaker 1: as Adam Schefter, has been reporting for more than two weeks, 812 00:39:24,360 --> 00:39:27,440 Speaker 1: has been passing every one of his drug tests, so 813 00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:29,640 Speaker 1: he's all set to come back in the league. The 814 00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:32,200 Speaker 1: question is going to be when. Now, if you ask 815 00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:35,160 Speaker 1: the Seahawks, they will have no word. Is that if 816 00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:37,840 Speaker 1: they're interested in signing him if they're not interested in 817 00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:40,799 Speaker 1: signing him because obviously he burned them twice with two suspensions. 818 00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:43,640 Speaker 1: So it's like, we don't know that. But here's the 819 00:39:43,719 --> 00:39:47,200 Speaker 1: key and follow where I'm going on this. Guess where 820 00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:53,000 Speaker 1: Josh Gordon continues to live Seattle, m okay? And so 821 00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:56,960 Speaker 1: my read is early next week he's going to be reinstated. 822 00:39:57,160 --> 00:40:00,279 Speaker 1: And if that is the case and you're Seattle, I mean, 823 00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:02,640 Speaker 1: and he can talk his way onto the roster. I 824 00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:05,319 Speaker 1: think what you can see is that Josh Gordon will 825 00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:07,680 Speaker 1: be on the practice squad. He may obviously he's not 826 00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:09,840 Speaker 1: going to play next in the Thursday night game against 827 00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:12,480 Speaker 1: the Rams, but also he puts himself in a position 828 00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:15,480 Speaker 1: to at some point after a couple of weeks, he 829 00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:17,800 Speaker 1: can emerge and challenge for the number three receiver spot. 830 00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:22,319 Speaker 1: You know, if Michael Bumpus had Josh Gordon's body, he'd 831 00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:27,440 Speaker 1: still be playing. John. We call that Cass, John, Cass, Hey, John, 832 00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:30,359 Speaker 1: we appreciate your time. Man. We will talk to you 833 00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:32,319 Speaker 1: on Sunday.

That was John Clayton when we returned. 835 00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:37,080 Speaker 1: It's time to talk. That talk we'll pick some topics 836 00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:39,200 Speaker 1: and Paul Moyer and I will square up maybe Tyler 837 00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:42,200 Speaker 1: Lockett justin Phills Kirk Cousins. You have to tune in 838 00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:44,160 Speaker 1: to find out that's next. Right here on Hawks Live, 839 00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:48,600 Speaker 1: it's time to Talk that Talk with Michael Bumpus and 840 00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:53,240 Speaker 1: Paul Moyer. On Hawks Live, It's time for Talk that Talk. 841 00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:56,279 Speaker 1: Michael Bompas here with Paul Morier. Every Thursday. We'll be 842 00:40:56,360 --> 00:41:00,279 Speaker 1: right here at seven o'clock. Talk that Talk. Moyer. This 843 00:41:00,360 --> 00:41:02,239 Speaker 1: is when we kind of we can debate a little bit. 844 00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:04,960 Speaker 1: We go back and forth about certain topics. And the 845 00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:06,759 Speaker 1: first one I'll start us off first. I want to 846 00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:10,280 Speaker 1: ask you, Moyer. Once you're your true opinion here, all right, 847 00:41:10,480 --> 00:41:13,080 Speaker 1: Tyler Lockett? Will he end the season leading the Seahawks 848 00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:19,640 Speaker 1: and receptions, yards and touchdowns? Yes he will, Yes, he will. 849 00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:22,000 Speaker 1: He will. And partly he's got such a huge lead 850 00:41:22,200 --> 00:41:24,239 Speaker 1: right from the get go, and I truly believe this 851 00:41:24,400 --> 00:41:28,720 Speaker 1: offense is not designed for one guy to go crazy. 852 00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:31,920 Speaker 1: He's gone crazy the last two games. And partly is 853 00:41:33,360 --> 00:41:36,399 Speaker 1: you know DK in this league is the League of Adjustments, right, 854 00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:39,480 Speaker 1: you know, how do they play the DK metcalf last year? 855 00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:43,120 Speaker 1: This year. At some point, you know, they're gonna start 856 00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:47,080 Speaker 1: shifting a little bit to Tyler, and that's gonna open 857 00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:49,279 Speaker 1: things up for DK. And once they see that, I mean, 858 00:41:50,120 --> 00:41:52,640 Speaker 1: I just think Tyler's gonna have more opportunities not to 859 00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:54,760 Speaker 1: be doubled all along the way. I think this offense 860 00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:56,400 Speaker 1: will give him that shot. But I just think it's 861 00:41:56,440 --> 00:41:59,600 Speaker 1: gonna be hard for one guy to dominate right now. 862 00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:01,920 Speaker 1: I think you just have such a big lead, you 863 00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:05,000 Speaker 1: know what. I disagree. I think DK is going to 864 00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:08,280 Speaker 1: get going. I think when it comes to this natural ability, 865 00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:10,680 Speaker 1: right DK has that. I think Lockett is the more 866 00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:13,960 Speaker 1: crafty receiver at this point in his career. That's the 867 00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:17,920 Speaker 1: next step for DK become crafty and catch the difficult football. 868 00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:21,319 Speaker 1: And I think eventually, because teams are gonna hone in 869 00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:24,560 Speaker 1: on Lockett, DK is gonna put together two or three 870 00:42:25,040 --> 00:42:27,239 Speaker 1: good weeks that at least are gonna keep him in 871 00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:29,759 Speaker 1: the fight and get him going. I don't think it's 872 00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:31,359 Speaker 1: gonna be a blow out. I think it's gonna be close. 873 00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:34,759 Speaker 1: They're gonna be within a hundred yards. Ten catches, two touchdowns. 874 00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:36,520 Speaker 1: He saw what the numbers were last year. I mean, 875 00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:38,759 Speaker 1: these dudes were close, So I think it's a toss up. 876 00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:42,920 Speaker 1: But I think that mister DK Metcalf. All right, So 877 00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:46,240 Speaker 1: right now, you've got two hundred and seventy eight yards 878 00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:50,320 Speaker 1: for Lockett. Yeah, you got one hundred and eleven for Metcalf. 879 00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:56,080 Speaker 1: You got three touchdowns for Lockett, one for Metcalf. Hey, 880 00:42:56,120 --> 00:42:58,040 Speaker 1: you could talk me out of that one. Yeah, and 881 00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:00,680 Speaker 1: may and I really think Lockets can have more yards 882 00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:04,480 Speaker 1: and more catches. The touchdown won those trick here because 883 00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:08,040 Speaker 1: we start getting into that red zone. You know, DC's force. 884 00:43:08,320 --> 00:43:10,279 Speaker 1: I think the Titans come into play as well. But 885 00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:13,600 Speaker 1: you know, I'm still gonna stick with Lockett. But the 886 00:43:13,640 --> 00:43:16,279 Speaker 1: touchdown one, I think is gonna be the toughest. All right, 887 00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:21,839 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go last week. When you get double digit leads, 888 00:43:22,160 --> 00:43:24,320 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say double digit leads, I'm gonna say 889 00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:27,919 Speaker 1: more than one score. So let's get nine points or more. 890 00:43:28,320 --> 00:43:30,800 Speaker 1: Is that fair? That means you're a pretty good team. 891 00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:33,439 Speaker 1: I mean, you're you're doing some really great things. Last 892 00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:37,280 Speaker 1: year we had a bunch of those. Defense was struggling 893 00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:39,759 Speaker 1: the first, you know, half of the season and got 894 00:43:39,800 --> 00:43:42,279 Speaker 1: it right in the second half. We've done that again 895 00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:45,280 Speaker 1: twice in two games and last week we're up by fifteen, 896 00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:47,320 Speaker 1: We're up by fourteen, should have been up by fifteen 897 00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:50,880 Speaker 1: into the fourth quarter. Will the Seahawks and will this 898 00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:53,000 Speaker 1: be the last time the Seahawks blow? And I hate 899 00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:55,759 Speaker 1: saying blow? Will they last time to give up more 900 00:43:55,800 --> 00:44:00,719 Speaker 1: than a score and lead in the fourth quarter? I'm 901 00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:04,239 Speaker 1: gonna say no, and I say no because this is 902 00:44:04,320 --> 00:44:07,080 Speaker 1: the NFL and there are gonna be times where you 903 00:44:07,120 --> 00:44:09,200 Speaker 1: are going to fail. I think this offense is still 904 00:44:09,239 --> 00:44:11,680 Speaker 1: trying to figure themselves out. It looks like a good offense. 905 00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:13,279 Speaker 1: I think you and I both agree. We like what 906 00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:16,160 Speaker 1: they're doing. We're like what they're trying to accomplish. But 907 00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:18,960 Speaker 1: they're gonna be times where it just ain't working. Where 908 00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:22,759 Speaker 1: you come out hot and like we mentioned during the postgame, 909 00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:25,920 Speaker 1: have time adjustments, meaning that two minutes that the coaches 910 00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:28,240 Speaker 1: got to speak to you, they throw a little nugget 911 00:44:28,239 --> 00:44:29,879 Speaker 1: in there and say all right, look we're gonna do this, 912 00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:32,480 Speaker 1: and then maybe it changes. I just know how this 913 00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:35,120 Speaker 1: league works, man. No one goes undefeated. There's never a 914 00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:38,160 Speaker 1: flawless game. They're gonna be times for your quarterback struggles, 915 00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:40,080 Speaker 1: gonna be time with your defense struggles. I'm gonna give 916 00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:41,560 Speaker 1: them one more time this year. I don't think it's 917 00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:43,439 Speaker 1: gonna be a habit, but one more time, you know, again, 918 00:44:43,520 --> 00:44:45,520 Speaker 1: give it up. A lead happens. You know, you're up 919 00:44:45,520 --> 00:44:48,480 Speaker 1: by three, six, whatever, I mean, the teams score up 920 00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:50,520 Speaker 1: and then again, that's just part of life. Give it 921 00:44:50,600 --> 00:44:53,080 Speaker 1: up a double digit lead, though that those are rare. 922 00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:55,040 Speaker 1: Matter of fact, it's the first time I think, and 923 00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:58,680 Speaker 1: Pete Carroll's time here that you know, going into the 924 00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:01,920 Speaker 1: fourth quarter, that that's happened. But it's not just on 925 00:45:01,960 --> 00:45:05,279 Speaker 1: the defense, you know, it's it's a lot on the 926 00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:08,879 Speaker 1: defense because I'm paying you guys to stop these guys now, 927 00:45:09,200 --> 00:45:12,120 Speaker 1: and they're they should be throwing the football. Last week 928 00:45:12,160 --> 00:45:14,879 Speaker 1: we found out Tennessee said now we'll run it. Well, 929 00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:18,200 Speaker 1: we're fine, fourth quarter, we'll we'll still run the football down, 930 00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:21,839 Speaker 1: you know, two scores. But the offense man went three 931 00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:23,799 Speaker 1: and out, three and out, three and out, four and out. 932 00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:25,319 Speaker 1: You know, I don't know if it was quite in 933 00:45:25,360 --> 00:45:28,200 Speaker 1: that order. One of those was actually I believe a touchdown. 934 00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:31,120 Speaker 1: But they got to help him out too. This was 935 00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:35,360 Speaker 1: a team fourth quarter loss. Defense gave it up with 936 00:45:35,400 --> 00:45:39,239 Speaker 1: a big play, The big running play offense, not sustaining drive, 937 00:45:39,360 --> 00:45:42,000 Speaker 1: not getting first downs. They almost doubled us in first down. 938 00:45:42,080 --> 00:45:45,040 Speaker 1: So I think we get it corrected. I think if 939 00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:47,720 Speaker 1: we got a nine point leader more, we're not giving 940 00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:50,120 Speaker 1: that up again this year. Now. I just we're too 941 00:45:50,160 --> 00:45:54,520 Speaker 1: good a pass rushing team. I believe our secondary is good. 942 00:45:54,600 --> 00:45:57,279 Speaker 1: We gotta we gotta get better. I think we're gonna 943 00:45:57,320 --> 00:45:59,919 Speaker 1: make a huge improvement from this last week to this week. 944 00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:05,959 Speaker 1: And how we how we play, I don't know. Just 945 00:46:05,960 --> 00:46:08,960 Speaker 1: just just tighten things up now. Not making selly mistakes 946 00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:11,720 Speaker 1: along the way. And team lost. We gotta throw special 947 00:46:11,719 --> 00:46:13,359 Speaker 1: teams in there, and there was an extra point I 948 00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:15,400 Speaker 1: was missed and that kind of bit him in the 949 00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:19,080 Speaker 1: butt later. All right, Now, next question Aaron rodgers Man. 950 00:46:19,080 --> 00:46:21,560 Speaker 1: We've been talking about him a lot this offseason, especially 951 00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:24,760 Speaker 1: during the season. First week against the New Orleans Saints, 952 00:46:24,760 --> 00:46:27,600 Speaker 1: He's fifteen to twenty eight, two interception, doesn't look good, 953 00:46:27,640 --> 00:46:30,760 Speaker 1: one sack. Looks like he's been vacation in all off season. 954 00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:34,319 Speaker 1: Second week against the Bears, thirty five to seventeen win, 955 00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:37,279 Speaker 1: eighty one eighty one. He completes eighty one percent of 956 00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:41,919 Speaker 1: his passes, four touchdowns, no interceptions. Was Aaron Rodgers right? 957 00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:44,719 Speaker 1: Are the Packers? Okay? Should we go back to what 958 00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:48,359 Speaker 1: he said a couple of years ago and just relax? Well, 959 00:46:48,360 --> 00:46:50,360 Speaker 1: if they had to play the Bears, I might have 960 00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:53,440 Speaker 1: changed my mind. But I think they played Detroit and 961 00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:58,319 Speaker 1: they beat Detroit thirty five seventeen. They were down at 962 00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:05,440 Speaker 1: halftime to Troit. Yeah, it's Detroit, Detroit at home. Aaron 963 00:47:05,520 --> 00:47:08,200 Speaker 1: Rodgers played well, he's what twenty two for twenty seven 964 00:47:08,520 --> 00:47:11,239 Speaker 1: four touchdowns? You know, look good? He still looks like 965 00:47:11,239 --> 00:47:13,880 Speaker 1: a yoga instructor. To me, I just don't think yoga 966 00:47:13,920 --> 00:47:19,040 Speaker 1: instructors are built to last season in the NFL. You're 967 00:47:19,120 --> 00:47:22,560 Speaker 1: not for all you and yoga instructors betweeting me and 968 00:47:22,600 --> 00:47:25,000 Speaker 1: all that. I love yoga. I think it should be 969 00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:27,040 Speaker 1: a part of every person's life for a lot of 970 00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:29,680 Speaker 1: good reasons. But if that's all you do, not truly 971 00:47:29,680 --> 00:47:32,520 Speaker 1: that I think that's all Aaron Rodgers do. No, I 972 00:47:32,640 --> 00:47:35,200 Speaker 1: think I think Green Bay's in trouble. They to me, 973 00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:38,160 Speaker 1: didn't look good against Detroit. Maybe Detroit's better than we thought. 974 00:47:38,239 --> 00:47:42,560 Speaker 1: They've actually played pretty well two weeks in a row. Um. No, 975 00:47:42,560 --> 00:47:44,680 Speaker 1: now there they are who they are? You know, I 976 00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:48,200 Speaker 1: think they're gonna be okay. And what maybe a believer 977 00:47:48,440 --> 00:47:51,200 Speaker 1: was watching some of the throws that Aaron Rodgers made 978 00:47:51,239 --> 00:47:53,439 Speaker 1: against Detroit. I know it is Detroit, but he's still 979 00:47:53,440 --> 00:47:55,480 Speaker 1: off his back foot, he slide into the right, he's 980 00:47:55,520 --> 00:47:58,880 Speaker 1: off balance, He's still making the Aaron Rodgers type throws. 981 00:47:59,040 --> 00:48:01,200 Speaker 1: I like your point to he don't look like he's 982 00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:03,239 Speaker 1: built to last. But you know who else don't looks 983 00:48:03,239 --> 00:48:05,279 Speaker 1: like he's built to last. Tom Brady looks like, man, 984 00:48:05,280 --> 00:48:07,279 Speaker 1: if you hit him too hard on a Tuesday, he's 985 00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:09,640 Speaker 1: done for two weeks. He just doesn't look like a 986 00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:12,400 Speaker 1: very strong football player. And now the quarterack position, I 987 00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:15,120 Speaker 1: don't think you need to look like that. But I 988 00:48:15,200 --> 00:48:17,560 Speaker 1: just I believe in the magic of Aaron Rodgers for 989 00:48:17,600 --> 00:48:20,160 Speaker 1: some reason. Yeah, Tom Brady and I get that's a 990 00:48:20,160 --> 00:48:23,360 Speaker 1: good point. Um. You know, the differtory is Tom and Aaron. 991 00:48:23,640 --> 00:48:25,920 Speaker 1: Tom's says, I'm not holding on the ball more in 992 00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:29,400 Speaker 1: two seconds, Yeah, Aaron wants to backpedal, he wants extent 993 00:48:29,680 --> 00:48:32,560 Speaker 1: and you know, look all pretty as he's leaning back 994 00:48:32,560 --> 00:48:35,920 Speaker 1: and throwing off his back foot. So no, no go 995 00:48:36,080 --> 00:48:39,680 Speaker 1: for me? All right, twenty seconds, Josh Gordon is available, 996 00:48:39,719 --> 00:48:41,279 Speaker 1: do you take a chance on him. Yeah. That came 997 00:48:41,320 --> 00:48:46,000 Speaker 1: from our last segment with John Clayton and potentially him 998 00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:50,040 Speaker 1: being available next week. He's living here. Yes, I'm taking 999 00:48:50,120 --> 00:48:53,320 Speaker 1: him Athletic leaks crazy. Put him on the practice squad. 1000 00:48:53,320 --> 00:48:54,719 Speaker 1: I don't think we need him right now. But if 1001 00:48:54,760 --> 00:48:57,800 Speaker 1: you put him out wide with DK and Tyler inside, 1002 00:48:57,840 --> 00:49:01,640 Speaker 1: mix in some Eskridge as well, just say pure that 1003 00:49:02,200 --> 00:49:07,239 Speaker 1: his presence alone Josh Gordon makes teams go, oh, do 1004 00:49:07,360 --> 00:49:09,960 Speaker 1: we leave him alone? Yeah? All right, I don't know 1005 00:49:09,960 --> 00:49:12,120 Speaker 1: where I stand on that. I think you got some 1006 00:49:12,200 --> 00:49:13,839 Speaker 1: young guys who are ready to go. I don't know that. 1007 00:49:13,840 --> 00:49:16,040 Speaker 1: That's a tricky one. All right, when wait, wait, wait, 1008 00:49:16,440 --> 00:49:18,879 Speaker 1: all right, all right, yes, no, no, okay, no, don't 1009 00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:24,600 Speaker 1: take it later, camp White, there was no tilent that 1010 00:49:24,719 --> 00:49:26,439 Speaker 1: was shown in there for you. All right, My bad, 1011 00:49:26,880 --> 00:49:29,279 Speaker 1: my bad. Moyer. All right, when we return, we're gonna 1012 00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:31,799 Speaker 1: go inside the film room. Bobby Wagner sack. He got 1013 00:49:31,800 --> 00:49:35,640 Speaker 1: Tyler Locke's touchdown, Henry's sixty yard touchdown. We'll break it 1014 00:49:35,680 --> 00:49:39,040 Speaker 1: down right here on Hawks Lock. Welcome back to Hawkslive 1015 00:49:39,080 --> 00:49:42,640 Speaker 1: of Michael Bump is hanging out with Paul Moyer. We're 1016 00:49:42,680 --> 00:49:44,520 Speaker 1: about to go inside the film room. This is something 1017 00:49:44,560 --> 00:49:48,040 Speaker 1: that Moyer and I really enjoy doing. Right as we 1018 00:49:48,160 --> 00:49:52,320 Speaker 1: both played, we both coached. There's nothing like watching film 1019 00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:55,040 Speaker 1: and breaking down what really happened because a lot of 1020 00:49:55,080 --> 00:49:57,799 Speaker 1: people sit on their couch, Moyer and they got all 1021 00:49:57,840 --> 00:50:00,000 Speaker 1: the answers, but they can't tell you what it texts 1022 00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:02,799 Speaker 1: this done is. They can't tell you what what that 1023 00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:04,879 Speaker 1: nine tech is. They can't tell you what a cover 1024 00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:06,839 Speaker 1: three is. So Morier, we're here to help the people 1025 00:50:06,920 --> 00:50:09,839 Speaker 1: learn the game. I like it. And there's as we 1026 00:50:09,880 --> 00:50:12,359 Speaker 1: say that you're never as good or as bad as 1027 00:50:12,360 --> 00:50:14,560 Speaker 1: you think you are until you go into the film 1028 00:50:14,640 --> 00:50:16,759 Speaker 1: session and find out what's really going on. Yep, you 1029 00:50:16,760 --> 00:50:18,560 Speaker 1: gotta tell the truth, all right. The first play we're 1030 00:50:18,560 --> 00:50:22,240 Speaker 1: gonna break down. Bobby Wagner sex Ryan Tannehill on third down. 1031 00:50:22,440 --> 00:50:25,200 Speaker 1: It's a force a field goal Tannehill from the shotgun 1032 00:50:25,760 --> 00:50:29,160 Speaker 1: with a slot near side. Tannehill gets hit and goes 1033 00:50:29,200 --> 00:50:34,839 Speaker 1: down on the blitz. Bobby Wagner came flashing through untouched 1034 00:50:35,040 --> 00:50:39,000 Speaker 1: and he just barry Tannehill back at the fifteen yard 1035 00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:42,120 Speaker 1: line at eight yard loss. And Dave you mentioned it, 1036 00:50:42,200 --> 00:50:45,720 Speaker 1: there may be no better blitzer from that inside backer spot. 1037 00:50:45,840 --> 00:50:47,520 Speaker 1: There's a lot of good things here. First of all, 1038 00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:51,719 Speaker 1: shout out to Bobby a really productive day, twenty tackles 1039 00:50:52,200 --> 00:50:55,839 Speaker 1: franchise record last week, and I know he's not happy 1040 00:50:55,840 --> 00:50:57,399 Speaker 1: about it because you know, we lost and they gave 1041 00:50:57,440 --> 00:50:59,440 Speaker 1: up a lot of yards and stuff. But this is 1042 00:50:59,480 --> 00:51:02,480 Speaker 1: something he's been doing well for so long. It's something 1043 00:51:02,480 --> 00:51:06,200 Speaker 1: I love. I actually like it when they have a 1044 00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:08,520 Speaker 1: bit of a five band front, you know, this bare look, 1045 00:51:08,880 --> 00:51:11,400 Speaker 1: which isn't I'm not describing his play right now, and 1046 00:51:11,400 --> 00:51:15,520 Speaker 1: then shoot the tackles are defensive tackles out wide and 1047 00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:18,600 Speaker 1: pull the guards out wide too, so there's a big 1048 00:51:19,400 --> 00:51:21,560 Speaker 1: space there that he can work one on one against 1049 00:51:21,560 --> 00:51:25,000 Speaker 1: the center. I've seen hardly any centers that can beat 1050 00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:27,480 Speaker 1: him or can lock him up one on one like that. 1051 00:51:27,760 --> 00:51:31,000 Speaker 1: But in this particular play, they just run a little stunt. 1052 00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:32,600 Speaker 1: And it's really the reason why I say it's a 1053 00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:36,160 Speaker 1: little stunt is Bobby Wagner times is so perfect. And 1054 00:51:36,360 --> 00:51:39,440 Speaker 1: as soon as the center puts his head down because 1055 00:51:39,440 --> 00:51:42,000 Speaker 1: they're in a shotgun, look, as soon as he puts 1056 00:51:42,480 --> 00:51:44,680 Speaker 1: his head down, if this comes from film study, he 1057 00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:47,759 Speaker 1: knows the ball is gonna get snapped, right, after so 1058 00:51:47,840 --> 00:51:50,799 Speaker 1: his timing of it's perfect. And so they bring our 1059 00:51:51,040 --> 00:51:55,400 Speaker 1: left tackle inside the garden center kind of mess it up. 1060 00:51:55,440 --> 00:51:58,040 Speaker 1: They should have actually picked us up, but Bobby so fast. 1061 00:51:58,360 --> 00:52:00,360 Speaker 1: By the time they realize what was going on. The 1062 00:52:00,400 --> 00:52:03,640 Speaker 1: guard looked and Bobby said, where'd he go? Where'd who go? 1063 00:52:04,520 --> 00:52:06,920 Speaker 1: And it was a big sack. I was actually worried 1064 00:52:06,920 --> 00:52:09,080 Speaker 1: on this play that we're gonna get a personal file 1065 00:52:09,120 --> 00:52:11,839 Speaker 1: because Bobby really did a bear hug high and went 1066 00:52:12,320 --> 00:52:15,360 Speaker 1: towards his helmet and neck or Bobba's neck. And nowadays 1067 00:52:15,360 --> 00:52:16,800 Speaker 1: you just don't know what they're gonna call if you 1068 00:52:16,880 --> 00:52:19,959 Speaker 1: hurt somebody too much. But just it shows it's still 1069 00:52:19,960 --> 00:52:23,760 Speaker 1: a speed as explosiveness. Another big played by Bobby Wagner, 1070 00:52:24,040 --> 00:52:26,160 Speaker 1: big play by Bobby. The thing that sticks out to 1071 00:52:26,200 --> 00:52:28,400 Speaker 1: me is Ryan Tannehill. He's not even looking at Bobby. 1072 00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:31,600 Speaker 1: He looks at this offensive line and what they're bringing. 1073 00:52:31,600 --> 00:52:33,560 Speaker 1: It says, look, I'm protected on that side. Even if 1074 00:52:33,600 --> 00:52:35,759 Speaker 1: they stunt that, I should be good. It's a numbers game. 1075 00:52:35,920 --> 00:52:37,920 Speaker 1: So Ryan Tannehill is looking to the left and then 1076 00:52:37,960 --> 00:52:41,040 Speaker 1: you mentioned man, Bobby Wagner times it up perfectly. Big 1077 00:52:41,120 --> 00:52:43,919 Speaker 1: hit on Ryan Tannehill. Forcing them to a field goal. 1078 00:52:44,440 --> 00:52:47,880 Speaker 1: Every game. I look for a signature Bobby Wagner play. 1079 00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:50,319 Speaker 1: We got one in week two with this play for sure. 1080 00:52:50,640 --> 00:52:53,120 Speaker 1: All right, next play, we're gonna break down. Russell Wilson 1081 00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:56,400 Speaker 1: finds Tyler Lockett for a sixty three yard touchdown in 1082 00:52:56,440 --> 00:52:59,560 Speaker 1: the second quarter wide slot, far side Russ play fake 1083 00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:01,960 Speaker 1: beach chase. Now he looks now he throws back. It's 1084 00:53:01,960 --> 00:53:05,280 Speaker 1: Tyler Lockett. Waits makes the catch, but to tackle thirty 1085 00:53:05,440 --> 00:53:12,839 Speaker 1: twenty five backup, touching ten five toutsdown, Tyler locking toutsdown 1086 00:53:13,080 --> 00:53:19,880 Speaker 1: Seahawks a sixty three yarder. The Tyler Locket stop started, 1087 00:53:20,160 --> 00:53:22,880 Speaker 1: broke a tackle and then broke the tape at the 1088 00:53:22,920 --> 00:53:27,200 Speaker 1: finish line like he was winning the hundred in the Olympics. 1089 00:53:27,280 --> 00:53:31,320 Speaker 1: The building is rocking and the Seahawks go on top 1090 00:53:32,040 --> 00:53:35,040 Speaker 1: nine to six. Now this is just beautiful. I look 1091 00:53:35,080 --> 00:53:38,280 Speaker 1: at Tyler Lockett's release and he understands what he's trying 1092 00:53:38,280 --> 00:53:40,880 Speaker 1: to accomplish. Now, you young receivers, you don't just line 1093 00:53:40,920 --> 00:53:42,040 Speaker 1: them to the line of the scream to say, okay, 1094 00:53:42,040 --> 00:53:44,279 Speaker 1: I'm running a post. You gotta have a plan, And 1095 00:53:44,360 --> 00:53:47,239 Speaker 1: this shows Tyler Lockett has a plan. He knows he's 1096 00:53:47,239 --> 00:53:49,640 Speaker 1: going to sell that corner, right, but he knows I'm 1097 00:53:49,640 --> 00:53:51,440 Speaker 1: gonna go back to this post. So what does he do. 1098 00:53:51,680 --> 00:53:53,959 Speaker 1: He takes an inside release and says, look, I'm gonna 1099 00:53:54,040 --> 00:53:55,920 Speaker 1: let this defender thing. He has me on the corner. 1100 00:53:56,040 --> 00:53:57,880 Speaker 1: At the top of this route, he turns his shoulders 1101 00:53:57,880 --> 00:54:00,640 Speaker 1: to the corner the defender's line, I mean position at 1102 00:54:00,640 --> 00:54:03,040 Speaker 1: this point. He snaps it off at the top, breaks 1103 00:54:03,040 --> 00:54:05,120 Speaker 1: to the post and says, lip, there's nothing but space 1104 00:54:05,160 --> 00:54:08,960 Speaker 1: an opportunity for me. Russell throws a deep ball. The 1105 00:54:09,040 --> 00:54:11,879 Speaker 1: rest is Tyler Lockett, our friend Bradley McDougal, who used 1106 00:54:11,880 --> 00:54:14,000 Speaker 1: to play on this ball club, takes a horrible angle 1107 00:54:14,280 --> 00:54:17,440 Speaker 1: and the rest is number sixteen. This is a receiver 1108 00:54:17,560 --> 00:54:20,760 Speaker 1: who has a plan and who understands how to attack 1109 00:54:20,760 --> 00:54:23,920 Speaker 1: a defense. Yeah, good, good protection. I this is one 1110 00:54:23,960 --> 00:54:27,600 Speaker 1: where Russell kind of slid inside the pocket bottle just 1111 00:54:27,640 --> 00:54:31,120 Speaker 1: a little bit of extra time. Throws an absolute dime. 1112 00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:35,600 Speaker 1: And you'd mentioned sometimes their deception from receivers, right, So 1113 00:54:35,680 --> 00:54:38,200 Speaker 1: if I'm covering you the particularly of my backs to 1114 00:54:38,239 --> 00:54:41,319 Speaker 1: the football, there's times where I've got to play your 1115 00:54:41,360 --> 00:54:44,040 Speaker 1: hands right. I'm looking at your hip and what kind 1116 00:54:44,040 --> 00:54:46,279 Speaker 1: of route you're gonna run. And there's a guy named 1117 00:54:46,320 --> 00:54:49,359 Speaker 1: Steve Largent that many people are familiar with. I'll never 1118 00:54:49,400 --> 00:54:52,840 Speaker 1: forget when he was playing against Lester Hayes. It's Lester. 1119 00:54:52,920 --> 00:54:55,279 Speaker 1: I think it's Lesters from the Raiders. I mean he 1120 00:54:55,440 --> 00:54:57,520 Speaker 1: was He had all the you know, stick him on 1121 00:54:57,560 --> 00:55:01,239 Speaker 1: his arms and everything, just a fantastic And we were 1122 00:55:01,280 --> 00:55:04,120 Speaker 1: playing at home in the Kingdom and they were battling 1123 00:55:04,160 --> 00:55:06,480 Speaker 1: all day and Lester's you know, just bump and run, 1124 00:55:06,840 --> 00:55:09,160 Speaker 1: mirroring him wherever he can go. But Steve's having a 1125 00:55:09,160 --> 00:55:14,399 Speaker 1: pretty good day. And it's like twenty yards downfield and 1126 00:55:14,719 --> 00:55:16,920 Speaker 1: Steve runs a fade route, you know, it gets an 1127 00:55:16,920 --> 00:55:21,160 Speaker 1: outside release. Lester's got him pinned to the sideline. But 1128 00:55:21,440 --> 00:55:24,680 Speaker 1: Lester liked to read his hands, so he's running and 1129 00:55:24,719 --> 00:55:27,000 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, Steve puts out his hands like 1130 00:55:27,040 --> 00:55:30,040 Speaker 1: it's a fade route, and as soon as Lester turns 1131 00:55:30,040 --> 00:55:32,520 Speaker 1: around for the ball, he stops and does a twenty 1132 00:55:32,600 --> 00:55:35,640 Speaker 1: yard come back. Oh it was good, Nay, yeah, it 1133 00:55:35,680 --> 00:55:37,799 Speaker 1: was nasty. And so Lockett has a little bit of 1134 00:55:37,840 --> 00:55:40,400 Speaker 1: that deception in him in his route. So that was 1135 00:55:40,480 --> 00:55:42,520 Speaker 1: my point there. Yeah, and he has his own style 1136 00:55:42,719 --> 00:55:45,200 Speaker 1: no one runs routes and plays like Tyler Lockett. I 1137 00:55:45,320 --> 00:55:47,920 Speaker 1: love to see it. Next play, This one might hurt 1138 00:55:47,920 --> 00:55:51,319 Speaker 1: a little bit. Derek Henry sixty yard touchdown and run 1139 00:55:51,440 --> 00:55:55,040 Speaker 1: in the four. Henry stays in the backfield first and ten. 1140 00:55:55,160 --> 00:55:57,760 Speaker 1: He gets the hand off, starts left, cuts back inside, 1141 00:55:57,880 --> 00:56:01,200 Speaker 1: but miss tackle, turns up field. Peach By digs down 1142 00:56:01,200 --> 00:56:04,279 Speaker 1: the near sidelines, stiff arms digs He's gonna go in? 1143 00:56:04,360 --> 00:56:09,359 Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? Derek Henry goes sixty yards down 1144 00:56:09,360 --> 00:56:13,319 Speaker 1: the near sideline. Seattle hit. Done a magnificent job the 1145 00:56:13,560 --> 00:56:18,120 Speaker 1: entire game of bottling up. Number twenty two he bounces outside, 1146 00:56:18,480 --> 00:56:22,319 Speaker 1: two tackles missed, and he goes sixty yards for a 1147 00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:25,840 Speaker 1: touch and just like that, Tennessee right back in at 1148 00:56:25,840 --> 00:56:28,799 Speaker 1: thirty to twenty two. Yeah, this one hurts me as 1149 00:56:28,840 --> 00:56:33,360 Speaker 1: a coach because I've got the play. You know, I 1150 00:56:33,400 --> 00:56:36,600 Speaker 1: won't describe the whole thing on this, but they come 1151 00:56:36,640 --> 00:56:40,399 Speaker 1: into a tight formation like a wing. Look, even though 1152 00:56:40,440 --> 00:56:42,040 Speaker 1: I think one of them is a wide receiver to 1153 00:56:42,120 --> 00:56:45,839 Speaker 1: our right, Jamal Adams is in between what you know, 1154 00:56:45,880 --> 00:56:50,160 Speaker 1: I used to a wing formation. So he blitzes and 1155 00:56:50,280 --> 00:56:52,600 Speaker 1: he comes into it. I don't even know what gap 1156 00:56:52,600 --> 00:56:55,160 Speaker 1: we're looking at here at this point, but he comes 1157 00:56:55,160 --> 00:56:58,320 Speaker 1: inside between the two tight ends or that it's actually 1158 00:56:58,320 --> 00:57:00,000 Speaker 1: wide receiver, but it looks like a two tight end, 1159 00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:03,520 Speaker 1: and set trying to describe this for people. The ball 1160 00:57:03,640 --> 00:57:06,480 Speaker 1: is in is on our far left hash mark. As 1161 00:57:06,480 --> 00:57:09,319 Speaker 1: a defense, it's offense is far far right hash mark. 1162 00:57:10,200 --> 00:57:13,840 Speaker 1: Everybody gets washed down mefic. Jamal gets washed down so far. 1163 00:57:14,080 --> 00:57:16,560 Speaker 1: Even though he gets penetration and he gets up field, 1164 00:57:16,880 --> 00:57:19,320 Speaker 1: he gets washed down so far. He gets pushed all 1165 00:57:19,360 --> 00:57:21,640 Speaker 1: the way all to where the ball was almost to 1166 00:57:21,680 --> 00:57:24,800 Speaker 1: the hash mark. So now tray flower and by the way, 1167 00:57:24,840 --> 00:57:27,160 Speaker 1: this is like a little via or what I've called 1168 00:57:27,200 --> 00:57:30,200 Speaker 1: just what would you call this we've got Henry takes 1169 00:57:30,200 --> 00:57:32,160 Speaker 1: a jab step to his right and then he comes 1170 00:57:32,160 --> 00:57:37,520 Speaker 1: back to his left misdirection. And what it does is 1171 00:57:37,640 --> 00:57:40,440 Speaker 1: when you get flow, what we call flow of the 1172 00:57:40,600 --> 00:57:42,880 Speaker 1: running back going to the left side of the defense, 1173 00:57:43,240 --> 00:57:46,000 Speaker 1: everybody has a certain gap. Well, as soon as he 1174 00:57:46,080 --> 00:57:48,640 Speaker 1: makes that misdirection and comes back to the other everybody's 1175 00:57:48,640 --> 00:57:50,520 Speaker 1: got to shift over back to the other side with 1176 00:57:50,600 --> 00:57:56,320 Speaker 1: their gap. Bobby doesn't make that adjustment. Jamal gets washed 1177 00:57:56,320 --> 00:57:58,560 Speaker 1: too far. So now you've got Trey Flowers sitting out 1178 00:57:58,600 --> 00:58:02,200 Speaker 1: there as the force in the contained corner, and he's 1179 00:58:02,240 --> 00:58:05,080 Speaker 1: got so much space. It's a one on one tackle 1180 00:58:05,120 --> 00:58:08,800 Speaker 1: in the open field against Henry who's six foot three, 1181 00:58:08,920 --> 00:58:11,360 Speaker 1: six foot four, two hundred and fifty five sixty pounds, 1182 00:58:11,440 --> 00:58:13,920 Speaker 1: runs a four to five, and which surprised me is 1183 00:58:13,920 --> 00:58:16,680 Speaker 1: he runs away from everybody. It's you know, it's not 1184 00:58:16,760 --> 00:58:20,560 Speaker 1: a bad defense. It's just this is technique. These are 1185 00:58:20,600 --> 00:58:24,080 Speaker 1: the little things. You can never get washed in this 1186 00:58:24,240 --> 00:58:27,600 Speaker 1: situation for Jamal. Jamal can't. You can't get run up field, 1187 00:58:27,640 --> 00:58:30,200 Speaker 1: you can't get washed down inside. Now, I would say 1188 00:58:30,200 --> 00:58:32,120 Speaker 1: for Trey, Trey, you gotta try and squeeze out as 1189 00:58:32,200 --> 00:58:35,200 Speaker 1: much as he can. It was my original thought. You 1190 00:58:35,200 --> 00:58:36,960 Speaker 1: gotta squeeze it down trying to get in a hip 1191 00:58:36,960 --> 00:58:39,200 Speaker 1: pocket of that tight end. In this case, it's a 1192 00:58:39,200 --> 00:58:42,520 Speaker 1: wide receiver off the ball man. It's just too much space. Yeah, 1193 00:58:42,640 --> 00:58:45,120 Speaker 1: way too much space. And correct me if I'm wrong here. More, 1194 00:58:45,320 --> 00:58:48,160 Speaker 1: I think that Jamal can do a better job of 1195 00:58:48,280 --> 00:58:51,280 Speaker 1: not committing right now. Right, he gets in there and 1196 00:58:51,280 --> 00:58:54,160 Speaker 1: he gets washed because he gets that penetration and gets 1197 00:58:54,160 --> 00:58:56,960 Speaker 1: pushed in the back. He makes as a receiver, all right, 1198 00:58:57,000 --> 00:58:59,640 Speaker 1: if I know that, Okay, this run is meant to 1199 00:59:00,200 --> 00:59:02,760 Speaker 1: pop outside. If you go inside, I'm like, yep, I'm 1200 00:59:02,760 --> 00:59:04,480 Speaker 1: gonna push you on your shoulder. I've done my job. 1201 00:59:04,520 --> 00:59:06,439 Speaker 1: I don't even really need to make it great block. 1202 00:59:06,680 --> 00:59:08,400 Speaker 1: I just need to take you where you wants to go. 1203 00:59:08,760 --> 00:59:11,520 Speaker 1: That's what Julio Jones does. And then I feel bad 1204 00:59:11,520 --> 00:59:13,400 Speaker 1: for Trey Flowers. They don't pay him to make tackles 1205 00:59:13,400 --> 00:59:16,680 Speaker 1: like that. That's that's now. He should make tackles. But 1206 00:59:16,840 --> 00:59:19,080 Speaker 1: that's not You don't expect your corner. It's not like 1207 00:59:19,120 --> 00:59:21,200 Speaker 1: he's Richard Sherman, where you know Sherman used to make 1208 00:59:21,240 --> 00:59:24,960 Speaker 1: those tackles. But I don't see corners as open field 1209 00:59:24,960 --> 00:59:29,600 Speaker 1: tacklers like that. But yeah, but this is tough one. 1210 00:59:29,640 --> 00:59:32,240 Speaker 1: And again I see what Jamal sees. Jamal sees that 1211 00:59:33,520 --> 00:59:36,600 Speaker 1: misdirection step going to his left them Again, Jamal's on 1212 00:59:36,600 --> 00:59:39,640 Speaker 1: the right side. He's blitzing down the line of scrimmage basically, 1213 00:59:39,960 --> 00:59:41,960 Speaker 1: or in the backfield, but down the line of scrimmage. 1214 00:59:42,240 --> 00:59:44,760 Speaker 1: He thinks he's gonna have a blow up shot on Henry. 1215 00:59:45,560 --> 00:59:49,200 Speaker 1: Henry does the misdirection cuts it back, and then you 1216 00:59:49,280 --> 00:59:51,440 Speaker 1: have Trey Trey right now it's going. Oh. The only 1217 00:59:51,440 --> 00:59:53,080 Speaker 1: thing I would tell Trey is guy, if he could 1218 00:59:53,120 --> 00:59:55,400 Speaker 1: have just shut it down a little bit sooner he 1219 00:59:55,720 --> 00:59:58,600 Speaker 1: actually comes two or three yards into the backfield, I 1220 00:59:58,600 --> 01:00:00,640 Speaker 1: would have tried to set a little close for the 1221 01:00:00,680 --> 01:00:04,080 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage there. But I look, honestly, I'm looking 1222 01:00:04,160 --> 01:00:06,520 Speaker 1: this play over and over and night. Go. Trey is 1223 01:00:06,560 --> 01:00:10,600 Speaker 1: in a tough situation, and this show's one of the 1224 01:00:10,640 --> 01:00:13,360 Speaker 1: most nimble plays for a man who's two hundred and 1225 01:00:13,440 --> 01:00:16,480 Speaker 1: sixty pounds. Look at the cut and again for those 1226 01:00:16,520 --> 01:00:17,880 Speaker 1: who can get a chance to go back and look 1227 01:00:17,920 --> 01:00:19,600 Speaker 1: at it. You know, Bump and I are looking at 1228 01:00:19,600 --> 01:00:22,520 Speaker 1: it right now. Look at the cutting makes on Trey here. 1229 01:00:22,840 --> 01:00:26,000 Speaker 1: I mean, it's just a one step cut upfield, and 1230 01:00:26,040 --> 01:00:28,960 Speaker 1: look at all that room. Nothing Tray can do. Nothing 1231 01:00:29,040 --> 01:00:32,680 Speaker 1: he can do there. That play changed the game for sure, 1232 01:00:32,720 --> 01:00:35,040 Speaker 1: all right. Those were our three players, Bobby Wagner, Sack, 1233 01:00:35,360 --> 01:00:38,280 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson, and Tyler Lockett. And then Derreck Henry's sixty 1234 01:00:38,360 --> 01:00:40,760 Speaker 1: yard TD run That definitely changed the game. When we 1235 01:00:40,840 --> 01:00:43,959 Speaker 1: come back, we're gonna go around the NFL Kyler Murray 1236 01:00:44,040 --> 01:00:48,000 Speaker 1: versus Russell Wilson. Grant makes a confession on Monday Night football. 1237 01:00:48,200 --> 01:00:51,840 Speaker 1: All that is next right here on Hawks Line. Welcome 1238 01:00:51,920 --> 01:00:54,800 Speaker 1: back to Hawks Live. Thanks for hanging out with us 1239 01:00:54,840 --> 01:00:57,640 Speaker 1: tonight on a Thursday. If you weren't watching the game, 1240 01:01:00,040 --> 01:01:03,000 Speaker 1: the Panthers gotta done. Good win by the Panthers Sam 1241 01:01:03,080 --> 01:01:05,120 Speaker 1: Darnold twenty three to thirty four, three out of four 1242 01:01:05,520 --> 01:01:09,000 Speaker 1: yards and two rushing touchdowns three and oh three and 1243 01:01:09,080 --> 01:01:12,560 Speaker 1: oh three and oh on the Thursday. That's a good feeling. Yeah, 1244 01:01:12,600 --> 01:01:17,680 Speaker 1: it is good to chill watch it go down. All right. 1245 01:01:17,960 --> 01:01:20,440 Speaker 1: So now we're going around the NFL. We're gonna start 1246 01:01:20,480 --> 01:01:23,240 Speaker 1: with Stephen A. Smith. We all know he has very 1247 01:01:23,320 --> 01:01:27,640 Speaker 1: strong opinions about things, and he talked about two quarterbacks. 1248 01:01:27,640 --> 01:01:29,640 Speaker 1: There's a quarterback in the NFC West that's making a 1249 01:01:29,720 --> 01:01:31,560 Speaker 1: case in saying, look, man, don't forget about me. I 1250 01:01:31,600 --> 01:01:33,720 Speaker 1: know Matthew Stafford is new to the block. I know 1251 01:01:33,840 --> 01:01:37,280 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson is here. You gotta maybe a controversy brewing 1252 01:01:37,280 --> 01:01:41,479 Speaker 1: in San Francisco with Garoppolo and Trey Lance. But Kylin 1253 01:01:41,560 --> 01:01:43,200 Speaker 1: Murray has been doing doing this thing, and Stephen A. 1254 01:01:43,280 --> 01:01:46,040 Speaker 1: Smith has something to say about that. Which quarterback would 1255 01:01:46,080 --> 01:01:49,720 Speaker 1: you rather have? Russ or Kyler? Shockingly I'm gonna tell you, 1256 01:01:49,760 --> 01:01:52,440 Speaker 1: Kylin Murray, and I'm fully aware of the greatness of 1257 01:01:52,520 --> 01:01:55,480 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson. He's a first, He's a future Hall of Famous. 1258 01:01:55,480 --> 01:01:58,480 Speaker 1: Far as I'm concerned, he's carried to Seahawks franchise on 1259 01:01:58,520 --> 01:02:01,960 Speaker 1: his back. I love me Russell Wilson. He is special 1260 01:02:03,240 --> 01:02:06,919 Speaker 1: with Colin Murray, ladies and gentleman. He's putting everybody on notice. 1261 01:02:06,960 --> 01:02:10,600 Speaker 1: He's twenty four years old. Okay, this brother already has 1262 01:02:10,600 --> 01:02:13,360 Speaker 1: passed for nearly seven hundred yards in two games this season, 1263 01:02:13,400 --> 01:02:16,560 Speaker 1: seven touchdowns just being receptions. He's completing over seventy three 1264 01:02:17,000 --> 01:02:19,720 Speaker 1: of his passes. And I'm looking at this dude, just 1265 01:02:19,880 --> 01:02:23,520 Speaker 1: make things happen. He's got an arm. When you talk 1266 01:02:23,600 --> 01:02:25,640 Speaker 1: about I mean, when you talk about a guy that 1267 01:02:25,680 --> 01:02:28,640 Speaker 1: can move in and out of the pocket, extend plays, 1268 01:02:28,680 --> 01:02:31,800 Speaker 1: and create opportunities to his offense. In terms of running 1269 01:02:31,800 --> 01:02:33,960 Speaker 1: with the football, there's nobody better than him other than 1270 01:02:34,040 --> 01:02:37,320 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. All right, Moyer, why is he wrong? Why 1271 01:02:37,400 --> 01:02:39,040 Speaker 1: is he right? How do you feel about this? I 1272 01:02:39,040 --> 01:02:42,320 Speaker 1: don't know if he's wrong. I think Kyler Murray heard 1273 01:02:42,320 --> 01:02:47,240 Speaker 1: me in preseason say he's just not accurate and he's 1274 01:02:47,240 --> 01:02:49,600 Speaker 1: stepped up his game, but he's second the league. He's 1275 01:02:49,680 --> 01:02:52,000 Speaker 1: right with six hundred and eighty nine yards. He's got 1276 01:02:52,080 --> 01:02:55,560 Speaker 1: seven touchdowns. The thing I like to look at and 1277 01:02:56,240 --> 01:02:59,320 Speaker 1: I do believe you know that they're doing a pretty 1278 01:02:59,320 --> 01:03:01,520 Speaker 1: good job of making him get rid of the ball. Yeah. 1279 01:03:01,680 --> 01:03:04,360 Speaker 1: Is he completing eighty percent of his passes at seventy 1280 01:03:04,360 --> 01:03:08,080 Speaker 1: three point? I don't know. I'm not completely sold at it. 1281 01:03:08,080 --> 01:03:11,280 Speaker 1: I would say this after two games. I think his 1282 01:03:11,480 --> 01:03:13,880 Speaker 1: legs are so dynamic and it's such a big part 1283 01:03:13,960 --> 01:03:17,560 Speaker 1: of this game nowadays. You know when protection breaks down 1284 01:03:17,560 --> 01:03:21,400 Speaker 1: and what the receivers he has. I don't I'm not 1285 01:03:21,440 --> 01:03:23,880 Speaker 1: saying stephen A is wrong after the first two games, 1286 01:03:24,440 --> 01:03:26,160 Speaker 1: But let me tell you what the last eight games 1287 01:03:26,160 --> 01:03:28,080 Speaker 1: of the year. In the last three games, are you 1288 01:03:28,120 --> 01:03:30,440 Speaker 1: going to the playoffs? Oh? I promise you you want 1289 01:03:30,520 --> 01:03:33,600 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson, Yes, And Kyler Murray's he's good man. He's 1290 01:03:33,680 --> 01:03:36,480 Speaker 1: short though. Man, I just I don't know. Teams are 1291 01:03:36,480 --> 01:03:40,120 Speaker 1: going to figure that part out. Yeah. See, this is 1292 01:03:40,120 --> 01:03:42,040 Speaker 1: the way I feel about Kyler Murray. I love what 1293 01:03:42,120 --> 01:03:45,120 Speaker 1: he does is exciting. He extends plays, But when you 1294 01:03:45,200 --> 01:03:47,439 Speaker 1: go on a road trip, you don't take the sports car. Right, 1295 01:03:47,440 --> 01:03:50,120 Speaker 1: you take the reliable, you take the suv. You can 1296 01:03:50,120 --> 01:03:52,040 Speaker 1: fit the family in there. You know it is there 1297 01:03:52,080 --> 01:03:54,840 Speaker 1: for the long haul. That's how I see Russell Wilson. 1298 01:03:54,920 --> 01:03:57,920 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson is like, look, I'm the dependable vehicle, all right. 1299 01:03:57,960 --> 01:03:59,960 Speaker 1: You gotta you gotta tune me up. You gotta take 1300 01:04:00,200 --> 01:04:01,520 Speaker 1: to the shop and make sure I'm good to go. 1301 01:04:01,560 --> 01:04:03,520 Speaker 1: But I'm gonna be there for you. Like you mentioned 1302 01:04:03,720 --> 01:04:06,760 Speaker 1: the last eight games, the last three games, I just 1303 01:04:06,800 --> 01:04:09,280 Speaker 1: have to see a full season from Kyler Murray. You 1304 01:04:09,280 --> 01:04:11,160 Speaker 1: can only depend on those legs so much. A lot 1305 01:04:11,200 --> 01:04:13,400 Speaker 1: of his big plays are broken down plays where he 1306 01:04:13,440 --> 01:04:15,800 Speaker 1: makes things happen. Now there's a guy, Patrick Mahomes who 1307 01:04:15,880 --> 01:04:18,360 Speaker 1: kind of does the same thing. It just looks different. 1308 01:04:18,400 --> 01:04:20,040 Speaker 1: I don't know what it is. Boy, it looks different 1309 01:04:20,080 --> 01:04:22,400 Speaker 1: when Mahomes does it. It looks like it's more sustainable 1310 01:04:22,440 --> 01:04:26,440 Speaker 1: when Mahomes does it. I think Kyler Murray had two 1311 01:04:26,880 --> 01:04:31,320 Speaker 1: better weeks than Russell Wilson. But in the long haul, man, 1312 01:04:31,960 --> 01:04:34,120 Speaker 1: I'm taking Russell. Well, I mean, let's go ahead and 1313 01:04:34,120 --> 01:04:36,520 Speaker 1: look at Russell's numbers just a little bit. And by 1314 01:04:36,520 --> 01:04:40,200 Speaker 1: the way, just got Patrick Mahomes is super accurate, yea 1315 01:04:40,440 --> 01:04:44,840 Speaker 1: with an incredible arm, and he's mobile. Kyler has a 1316 01:04:44,960 --> 01:04:49,920 Speaker 1: strong arm, unbelievably mobile. He not super accurate, and he 1317 01:04:50,400 --> 01:04:52,680 Speaker 1: needs the dinks and dunks. But you just mentioned that 1318 01:04:52,920 --> 01:04:55,479 Speaker 1: he's completing seventy three percent of his pass as well. 1319 01:04:55,840 --> 01:04:59,920 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson's completing seventy four percent of his passes. Kyler 1320 01:05:00,040 --> 01:05:04,080 Speaker 1: Murray has seven touchdown Russ Wilson has six touchdowns. You 1321 01:05:04,200 --> 01:05:07,760 Speaker 1: got a quarterback rating? What's what's Kyler's quarterback rating? One? 1322 01:05:08,480 --> 01:05:11,400 Speaker 1: As apologize it's not seventy one point six. Oh excuse me, 1323 01:05:11,440 --> 01:05:13,760 Speaker 1: one twenty one point five. Yeah, one twenty one point five. 1324 01:05:13,880 --> 01:05:16,680 Speaker 1: We got Russell Wilson with one forty six point nine. 1325 01:05:17,600 --> 01:05:20,160 Speaker 1: So Kyler Murray has played the best two games of 1326 01:05:20,200 --> 01:05:23,080 Speaker 1: his life and it's still not as good as Russell Wilson. 1327 01:05:23,240 --> 01:05:26,080 Speaker 1: Tell him, Moawyer. But they are two and oh and 1328 01:05:26,160 --> 01:05:29,720 Speaker 1: the NFC West has not lost a game in regular 1329 01:05:30,440 --> 01:05:33,240 Speaker 1: time so far this year and overtime lost. Let me 1330 01:05:33,280 --> 01:05:35,480 Speaker 1: just add some food for thought. Right now. Number one, 1331 01:05:35,720 --> 01:05:38,480 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray does not have the career he has right now. 1332 01:05:38,520 --> 01:05:40,360 Speaker 1: It's not even this league if there wasn't for Russell 1333 01:05:40,400 --> 01:05:43,440 Speaker 1: Wilson number one. That's point blank. But I will say 1334 01:05:43,520 --> 01:05:46,400 Speaker 1: this a little devil's advocate here the things that we're 1335 01:05:46,400 --> 01:05:49,120 Speaker 1: saying about Kyler right now, some people said about Russell 1336 01:05:49,160 --> 01:05:51,400 Speaker 1: in the sense of it's an unfair comparison. Russell has 1337 01:05:51,400 --> 01:05:53,640 Speaker 1: done so much in this league. When Russell first got in, 1338 01:05:53,840 --> 01:05:57,600 Speaker 1: everyone compared him to Tom Brady, Drew Brees, Aaron Rodgers. 1339 01:05:57,680 --> 01:05:59,440 Speaker 1: He didn't have as much time in the league at 1340 01:05:59,440 --> 01:06:01,959 Speaker 1: that point. But now, I don't know, are we saying 1341 01:06:01,960 --> 01:06:04,360 Speaker 1: the same things about a young Russell Wilson that he 1342 01:06:04,400 --> 01:06:06,200 Speaker 1: just makes too many plays with his feet. He's really 1343 01:06:06,320 --> 01:06:08,840 Speaker 1: about this, He's only good when the plays breakdown. Are 1344 01:06:08,880 --> 01:06:11,040 Speaker 1: we making the same mistakes that maybe we said about 1345 01:06:11,080 --> 01:06:13,280 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson that we other people said back in the day. 1346 01:06:13,480 --> 01:06:17,320 Speaker 1: All right, so I'll add to that. When Russell was 1347 01:06:17,360 --> 01:06:19,280 Speaker 1: coming out, did you think of him as a runner 1348 01:06:19,360 --> 01:06:22,560 Speaker 1: or a thrower runner? All day? Did? I thought it 1349 01:06:22,600 --> 01:06:25,080 Speaker 1: was a runner? He rush for eight hundred yards one season? Yeah, No, 1350 01:06:25,160 --> 01:06:28,240 Speaker 1: that was like year whenever there was a year we 1351 01:06:28,520 --> 01:06:32,040 Speaker 1: didn't rush very well. But um, I still thought of 1352 01:06:32,120 --> 01:06:35,600 Speaker 1: him as a thrower who could run. I think Kyler 1353 01:06:35,680 --> 01:06:40,120 Speaker 1: as a runner. That's a tough one. Because Lamar is 1354 01:06:40,160 --> 01:06:42,600 Speaker 1: starting to come out of that that stigma too, and 1355 01:06:42,680 --> 01:06:44,760 Speaker 1: every said he's a runner, you know, he's not a thrower. 1356 01:06:44,880 --> 01:06:47,120 Speaker 1: He's starting to, I think, prove some doubters on that 1357 01:06:47,160 --> 01:06:52,000 Speaker 1: one wrong. I don't know. If you took the mobility 1358 01:06:52,000 --> 01:06:56,720 Speaker 1: away from Kyler, I think he's done. You take some mobility, 1359 01:06:56,840 --> 01:06:58,360 Speaker 1: you think you can win just on throwing that you 1360 01:06:58,400 --> 01:07:01,240 Speaker 1: can throw. You think you can because I think Russell 1361 01:07:01,280 --> 01:07:02,960 Speaker 1: can sit in the pocket and beat you. Okay, but 1362 01:07:03,080 --> 01:07:05,960 Speaker 1: all right, well, are you take away his legs? He 1363 01:07:06,040 --> 01:07:08,920 Speaker 1: becomes say like an Aaron Rodgers. Aaron Rodgers doesn't have 1364 01:07:08,960 --> 01:07:10,720 Speaker 1: great legs, but he can move a little bit. He 1365 01:07:10,760 --> 01:07:13,320 Speaker 1: can slide in the pocketing and extend some plays. If 1366 01:07:13,400 --> 01:07:16,480 Speaker 1: he had the legs of Aaron Rodgers. I think he's 1367 01:07:16,480 --> 01:07:21,120 Speaker 1: still okay. I I think Kyler's just he Kyler has 1368 01:07:21,160 --> 01:07:23,280 Speaker 1: to have the legs because he's so short, you know, 1369 01:07:23,320 --> 01:07:26,680 Speaker 1: I mean, he's really limited and seeing Overlyneman. So I'm 1370 01:07:26,680 --> 01:07:29,680 Speaker 1: saying he's done after you're eight nine, you know, I 1371 01:07:29,720 --> 01:07:33,280 Speaker 1: don't know. I don't know what I'm saying. I want. 1372 01:07:33,320 --> 01:07:35,120 Speaker 1: I'm trying to make a good analogy here, and it's 1373 01:07:35,160 --> 01:07:38,160 Speaker 1: not doing very well for me. I just think you 1374 01:07:38,280 --> 01:07:41,400 Speaker 1: take Russell's legs away. Which look, Russell doesn't run as 1375 01:07:41,400 --> 01:07:44,360 Speaker 1: well as he used to. Know, He's still shifty, he 1376 01:07:44,400 --> 01:07:47,360 Speaker 1: knows how to escape, but he's not running by anybody. 1377 01:07:47,720 --> 01:07:50,400 Speaker 1: Kyler is. Yeah. I just think when that goes away, 1378 01:07:50,440 --> 01:07:53,440 Speaker 1: will Kyler be a guy that you you fear throwing 1379 01:07:53,480 --> 01:07:56,360 Speaker 1: the football? Because I think people now go, oh, I 1380 01:07:56,400 --> 01:07:59,680 Speaker 1: fear Russell Russell throwing it. Yeah, and maybe that Kyler 1381 01:07:59,720 --> 01:08:02,640 Speaker 1: turns into that. Yeah. Time will tell. Time. I will 1382 01:08:02,680 --> 01:08:05,919 Speaker 1: take Russell, though, I'll take Russell too. All right, real quick, 1383 01:08:05,920 --> 01:08:09,800 Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about Rob Gronkowski. He made a confession 1384 01:08:10,200 --> 01:08:12,400 Speaker 1: on the pay Manning or excuse me, the Manning Brothers 1385 01:08:12,480 --> 01:08:15,000 Speaker 1: make it cast on Monday Night Football. My teammate cam 1386 01:08:15,360 --> 01:08:17,880 Speaker 1: Break just asked me the other day. He goes, Rob, 1387 01:08:17,920 --> 01:08:21,040 Speaker 1: I have a serious question. He goes, do you ever 1388 01:08:21,120 --> 01:08:24,760 Speaker 1: watch film? And I said, no, I don't. It's I 1389 01:08:24,880 --> 01:08:27,760 Speaker 1: just run by guys. If I'm feeling good, I'm feeling good. 1390 01:08:29,040 --> 01:08:30,760 Speaker 1: So I don't know how to answer that. Eli, I 1391 01:08:30,800 --> 01:08:34,519 Speaker 1: don't watch film, but I do watch it when the 1392 01:08:34,560 --> 01:08:38,320 Speaker 1: team is showing it. So uh, and I actually do 1393 01:08:38,400 --> 01:08:40,600 Speaker 1: go up to time because I know Tim watches like, 1394 01:08:41,000 --> 01:08:43,240 Speaker 1: I don't know forty hours of film a week. I go, Tom, 1395 01:08:43,360 --> 01:08:45,920 Speaker 1: who's covering me this week? What type of coverages are 1396 01:08:45,960 --> 01:08:49,760 Speaker 1: they doing? I love it and I hate it at 1397 01:08:49,760 --> 01:08:51,960 Speaker 1: the same time. I love it because he's honest and 1398 01:08:52,000 --> 01:08:53,800 Speaker 1: he's that good to where he probably doesn't have to 1399 01:08:53,800 --> 01:08:56,120 Speaker 1: watch it. I hate it because Moyer, I needed to 1400 01:08:56,160 --> 01:08:58,559 Speaker 1: watch film. I needed to know what they're gonna look 1401 01:08:58,600 --> 01:09:01,520 Speaker 1: like a third down? What are they gonna be their adjustments? 1402 01:09:01,600 --> 01:09:03,280 Speaker 1: Who am I going up? Begins? I look up, and 1403 01:09:03,640 --> 01:09:07,200 Speaker 1: I would mark down to the third step? Easy out 1404 01:09:07,200 --> 01:09:09,599 Speaker 1: of his break by his third step? What is gonna 1405 01:09:09,640 --> 01:09:11,240 Speaker 1: do in this covers? Like, I had it down to 1406 01:09:11,320 --> 01:09:14,040 Speaker 1: a science. So I love it because he's just good 1407 01:09:14,040 --> 01:09:16,080 Speaker 1: and he's honest. But I'm jealous because I had to 1408 01:09:16,080 --> 01:09:20,960 Speaker 1: watch film. Yeah, most guys, look, first of all, we 1409 01:09:21,000 --> 01:09:25,240 Speaker 1: watch a ton of film. Just in your position meetings, right, 1410 01:09:25,280 --> 01:09:28,240 Speaker 1: I mean it's they get everything broken down. Here's by 1411 01:09:28,280 --> 01:09:31,400 Speaker 1: formation where you are on the field down a distance. 1412 01:09:31,640 --> 01:09:34,360 Speaker 1: Oh and by the way, here's some tendencies on these players. 1413 01:09:34,840 --> 01:09:36,320 Speaker 1: Go look at this, and by the way, you got 1414 01:09:36,320 --> 01:09:38,439 Speaker 1: some cut ups, you know, look at third down, look 1415 01:09:38,439 --> 01:09:41,720 Speaker 1: at play acts, and you get all that stuff along 1416 01:09:41,760 --> 01:09:44,240 Speaker 1: the way. So most of us have watched a ton 1417 01:09:44,280 --> 01:09:47,240 Speaker 1: of film, but there's others that watched a lot more. 1418 01:09:47,320 --> 01:09:50,599 Speaker 1: I liked watch the film. I've always liked it. Now, 1419 01:09:50,800 --> 01:09:53,960 Speaker 1: I didn't study the players like they probably do today 1420 01:09:54,040 --> 01:09:57,080 Speaker 1: because quite frankly, it wasn't an HD, and you know, 1421 01:09:57,520 --> 01:10:00,559 Speaker 1: I couldn't see, you know, the fingers move and things 1422 01:10:00,640 --> 01:10:02,479 Speaker 1: like that they do today. I mean, it's more about 1423 01:10:02,520 --> 01:10:05,559 Speaker 1: formations and all that other stuff. But the Seahawks used 1424 01:10:05,600 --> 01:10:07,920 Speaker 1: to do something that was really funny back then. Have 1425 01:10:08,040 --> 01:10:10,800 Speaker 1: you have you ever heard of VHS tapes? Of course, okay, 1426 01:10:10,840 --> 01:10:13,240 Speaker 1: you're you're you're not too young. For those out there 1427 01:10:13,240 --> 01:10:15,800 Speaker 1: who are listening for the first time, VHS what is it? 1428 01:10:16,120 --> 01:10:18,360 Speaker 1: They're there are video tapes that they would make and 1429 01:10:18,400 --> 01:10:20,479 Speaker 1: they would give them all the players and give them 1430 01:10:20,520 --> 01:10:24,519 Speaker 1: to them with cutups and other games. Most of the players, 1431 01:10:24,640 --> 01:10:26,720 Speaker 1: we've watched enough film. You don't need to go home 1432 01:10:26,720 --> 01:10:29,360 Speaker 1: and put on a VHS and back and back. Well, 1433 01:10:29,360 --> 01:10:31,160 Speaker 1: one day they said, by the way, we know if 1434 01:10:31,160 --> 01:10:34,840 Speaker 1: you've been watching it, because we can tell if I 1435 01:10:34,840 --> 01:10:36,519 Speaker 1: don't know. They made by the way, they made this 1436 01:10:36,640 --> 01:10:39,679 Speaker 1: up so players would go home and stick the tape 1437 01:10:40,200 --> 01:10:42,599 Speaker 1: into their tape and just let it run till the end, 1438 01:10:42,720 --> 01:10:46,200 Speaker 1: pull it out and give it back to the film guys, thinking, oh, 1439 01:10:46,240 --> 01:10:48,920 Speaker 1: these guys know think I watched film. And I found 1440 01:10:48,920 --> 01:10:51,320 Speaker 1: out later from Tom Fermstad and some of the other 1441 01:10:51,360 --> 01:10:53,240 Speaker 1: guys they said, oh, we just made that. We had 1442 01:10:53,280 --> 01:10:56,520 Speaker 1: no idea if you guys watched film and um. But yeah, 1443 01:10:56,560 --> 01:10:59,519 Speaker 1: if you're an NFL player, you're you're putting in twenty 1444 01:10:59,560 --> 01:11:02,719 Speaker 1: thirty hours a week of film work. Moral of the story, kids, 1445 01:11:02,720 --> 01:11:06,800 Speaker 1: watch film. Prepare yourself for the test. If you ever 1446 01:11:06,840 --> 01:11:09,680 Speaker 1: walked into a class and you ain't steady and you 1447 01:11:09,720 --> 01:11:12,759 Speaker 1: get that examine in front of you and you are lost, 1448 01:11:12,840 --> 01:11:14,840 Speaker 1: that's how you will feel on a football field. Yeah, 1449 01:11:14,880 --> 01:11:17,519 Speaker 1: unless you're Rob Grondcows. Kids, they just get an age, 1450 01:11:17,560 --> 01:11:19,320 Speaker 1: just show up and say what do we what's the 1451 01:11:19,360 --> 01:11:21,880 Speaker 1: test on today? Hey? And there's always a kid like 1452 01:11:21,960 --> 01:11:23,880 Speaker 1: that who can do that. Yeah. It just shows up 1453 01:11:24,160 --> 01:11:26,280 Speaker 1: during the week and then he's good to go for 1454 01:11:26,320 --> 01:11:28,960 Speaker 1: the test. I used to have I said, come here, 1455 01:11:29,240 --> 01:11:31,439 Speaker 1: do you mind doing my here? Give me the answers. 1456 01:11:32,720 --> 01:11:34,800 Speaker 1: Never no, never did that as shoot, that never happened. 1457 01:11:34,800 --> 01:11:36,960 Speaker 1: All right, when we come back, we will give you 1458 01:11:37,000 --> 01:11:40,200 Speaker 1: our final thoughts and the keys to victory for the Seahawks. 1459 01:11:40,240 --> 01:11:42,720 Speaker 1: That is next here on Hawks Live. Welcome back to 1460 01:11:42,800 --> 01:11:46,920 Speaker 1: Hawks Live every Thursday. I'm Michael Bumps along with Paul Moyer. 1461 01:11:47,560 --> 01:11:51,519 Speaker 1: Last segment of the day. On the sheet here it says, 1462 01:11:51,560 --> 01:11:54,920 Speaker 1: show recap, Final thoughts and keys, Show recap. I think 1463 01:11:54,920 --> 01:11:56,439 Speaker 1: we did our thing, Moyer. I think we had a 1464 01:11:56,439 --> 01:11:59,880 Speaker 1: good show. We did. It's always always fun. We have 1465 01:12:00,040 --> 01:12:02,720 Speaker 1: good time here. Look keys of the game on this one. 1466 01:12:03,760 --> 01:12:06,719 Speaker 1: We could go the same route almost every week because 1467 01:12:06,800 --> 01:12:09,960 Speaker 1: usually it's turnovers things like that. I'm gonna go on 1468 01:12:10,000 --> 01:12:13,360 Speaker 1: a little different this time. And actually I think Robert 1469 01:12:13,360 --> 01:12:15,720 Speaker 1: Turbin may have said it in our pregame show last week. 1470 01:12:16,240 --> 01:12:18,800 Speaker 1: We got to sustain drives. We gotta start getting first 1471 01:12:18,840 --> 01:12:22,160 Speaker 1: downs offensively. If you go and look last week, I 1472 01:12:22,280 --> 01:12:25,720 Speaker 1: don't think we had a drive. I remember it now. 1473 01:12:25,960 --> 01:12:29,680 Speaker 1: We had two drives over two minutes. Two two of 1474 01:12:29,720 --> 01:12:32,080 Speaker 1: those were four minute drives both times we punt it. 1475 01:12:32,120 --> 01:12:34,880 Speaker 1: Those are two longest drives. Everything else was under two minutes. 1476 01:12:35,720 --> 01:12:37,519 Speaker 1: You know, not a lot of first downs on AAM. 1477 01:12:37,560 --> 01:12:39,920 Speaker 1: I think we had seventeen eighteen first downs last week 1478 01:12:40,000 --> 01:12:43,240 Speaker 1: versus you know, thirty two thirty three. That can't happen 1479 01:12:43,280 --> 01:12:45,719 Speaker 1: in this league. And again, I love the big play, 1480 01:12:45,800 --> 01:12:49,600 Speaker 1: I love scoring, but you start looking at what Tennessee 1481 01:12:49,600 --> 01:12:52,800 Speaker 1: did to us defensively, started running. We got some long 1482 01:12:52,920 --> 01:12:56,040 Speaker 1: drive boom offenses off the field in a minute and 1483 01:12:56,040 --> 01:12:58,479 Speaker 1: a half. Defense got to go back out. Now, I'm 1484 01:12:58,520 --> 01:13:01,600 Speaker 1: not putting it on the offense. That's not the offenses. 1485 01:13:02,040 --> 01:13:05,400 Speaker 1: Falter job, you know, the defense. But we've got us 1486 01:13:05,400 --> 01:13:08,519 Speaker 1: sustain drives. We gotta start eating some clock. We gotta 1487 01:13:08,520 --> 01:13:11,439 Speaker 1: get some first downs where their defense had a little 1488 01:13:11,439 --> 01:13:13,160 Speaker 1: bit more. And that's really what we haven't done in 1489 01:13:13,160 --> 01:13:15,719 Speaker 1: the first two weeks. Yeah, I'm with you. Sustain those drives. 1490 01:13:15,720 --> 01:13:18,120 Speaker 1: Here are the scoring drives for us. Five plays fifty 1491 01:13:18,120 --> 01:13:20,800 Speaker 1: seven yards a minute, fifty eight three plays eighty three 1492 01:13:20,880 --> 01:13:23,559 Speaker 1: yards a minute, forty four two plays six yards, seven 1493 01:13:23,560 --> 01:13:27,040 Speaker 1: plays seventy five yards, three plays sixty six yards. And 1494 01:13:27,120 --> 01:13:29,120 Speaker 1: you look at nine of them over two minutes, none 1495 01:13:29,120 --> 01:13:31,720 Speaker 1: of them over two minutes. Now, the Tennessee Titans, man, 1496 01:13:31,800 --> 01:13:34,599 Speaker 1: they took control of this name. Eight plays eighty yards 1497 01:13:34,640 --> 01:13:38,240 Speaker 1: four minutes twenty three seconds. How many twelve plays sixty 1498 01:13:38,280 --> 01:13:41,320 Speaker 1: eight yards three minutes forty four seconds you hit it 1499 01:13:41,360 --> 01:13:43,840 Speaker 1: on the head. Thirty three first downs to the Hawks 1500 01:13:43,880 --> 01:13:46,719 Speaker 1: seven team. You have to have the ball to control 1501 01:13:46,800 --> 01:13:49,400 Speaker 1: the temple of the game, and I think the Hawks 1502 01:13:49,479 --> 01:13:51,840 Speaker 1: offense can do that. They showed that the first week. Right, 1503 01:13:52,000 --> 01:13:54,599 Speaker 1: there's a quick game. You can check stuff down, get 1504 01:13:54,640 --> 01:13:57,439 Speaker 1: things going. We don't want to eliminate the big plays. 1505 01:13:57,560 --> 01:13:59,599 Speaker 1: We're not saying, oh no, we don't want that sixty 1506 01:13:59,640 --> 01:14:01,720 Speaker 1: nine yard touchdown from Locket or that sixty two f 1507 01:14:01,800 --> 01:14:04,559 Speaker 1: Freddie Swayne. We're just saying, look, in between those big plays, 1508 01:14:04,600 --> 01:14:07,280 Speaker 1: let's play three or four drives together to really wear 1509 01:14:07,720 --> 01:14:10,519 Speaker 1: this defense down like the Titans that and the Hogs 1510 01:14:10,520 --> 01:14:13,160 Speaker 1: have a running back who can wear defense down thirty 1511 01:14:13,200 --> 01:14:16,800 Speaker 1: two runs hard, let him touch the peel. Yeah, no, 1512 01:14:16,840 --> 01:14:21,000 Speaker 1: I agree, there is You know, there's a human element 1513 01:14:21,080 --> 01:14:25,439 Speaker 1: to this that people sometimes forget this video game. These 1514 01:14:25,479 --> 01:14:28,280 Speaker 1: are human beings and it's a physical game. And if 1515 01:14:28,280 --> 01:14:30,519 Speaker 1: you if you're an offense and you're wearing them out 1516 01:14:30,520 --> 01:14:34,639 Speaker 1: and get these seven, eight play drives or twelve play drives, man, 1517 01:14:34,680 --> 01:14:37,960 Speaker 1: it's taxing on a defense. We're tired. And then you 1518 01:14:38,040 --> 01:14:40,840 Speaker 1: go to sit back down and it's you know, it's warm, 1519 01:14:40,920 --> 01:14:42,679 Speaker 1: you know it's still we're still got some some weather 1520 01:14:42,720 --> 01:14:44,439 Speaker 1: going on. You get to have a little drinking if 1521 01:14:44,479 --> 01:14:46,160 Speaker 1: you gotta go back out there. Even though you just 1522 01:14:46,400 --> 01:14:50,200 Speaker 1: you scored. I'm happy you scored. Yeah, Mike, I am, 1523 01:14:50,240 --> 01:14:52,519 Speaker 1: but I need a break because I'm physically I'm starting 1524 01:14:52,520 --> 01:14:55,360 Speaker 1: to get get tired. And I've said this forever, it's 1525 01:14:55,439 --> 01:15:00,200 Speaker 1: really important to get first downs. If last week we 1526 01:15:00,200 --> 01:15:02,840 Speaker 1: were getting we were we weren't getting first downs on 1527 01:15:02,960 --> 01:15:06,240 Speaker 1: mixed downs. And if you're coming up third down all 1528 01:15:06,280 --> 01:15:09,160 Speaker 1: the time, you go first down, second down, third down. Man, 1529 01:15:09,240 --> 01:15:11,240 Speaker 1: it's just the law of averages. You can convert on 1530 01:15:11,280 --> 01:15:14,000 Speaker 1: fifty percent of your third downs. But at some point 1531 01:15:14,080 --> 01:15:16,599 Speaker 1: and that drive, I'm off the field. So I need 1532 01:15:16,640 --> 01:15:19,320 Speaker 1: to start getting eight nine play drives with one or 1533 01:15:19,360 --> 01:15:22,719 Speaker 1: two third down opportunities, because if I've got four or five, 1534 01:15:23,600 --> 01:15:26,000 Speaker 1: likelihood of us scoring is really difficult. It's just not 1535 01:15:26,080 --> 01:15:27,840 Speaker 1: the odds aren't in your favor, and you speak up 1536 01:15:27,880 --> 01:15:30,479 Speaker 1: third downs. The Hawks for four for twelve on third 1537 01:15:30,479 --> 01:15:32,800 Speaker 1: downs not great. They never really have been a great 1538 01:15:32,840 --> 01:15:34,880 Speaker 1: third down team, at least not in the last two 1539 01:15:35,000 --> 01:15:37,559 Speaker 1: or three seasons. So they need to clean that up. Now. 1540 01:15:37,600 --> 01:15:40,160 Speaker 1: The Vikings they're going to run the football. They're gonna 1541 01:15:40,200 --> 01:15:42,160 Speaker 1: run a bit different. They're gonna run some power, They're 1542 01:15:42,160 --> 01:15:44,960 Speaker 1: gonna run some trap. They're gonna lead with their tight ends. 1543 01:15:44,960 --> 01:15:48,040 Speaker 1: They're gonna lead with their fullback. They have the ability 1544 01:15:48,360 --> 01:15:51,479 Speaker 1: to play hard nosed football in the bots and spread 1545 01:15:51,520 --> 01:15:54,120 Speaker 1: it up, spread it out on the outside with Thelon 1546 01:15:54,200 --> 01:15:57,640 Speaker 1: and Osbourne and Justin Jefferson. I mean, we said it 1547 01:15:57,720 --> 01:15:59,640 Speaker 1: last week, Paul, and I don't think people really believe us. 1548 01:15:59,640 --> 01:16:01,640 Speaker 1: We're gonna staying again this week. This is going to 1549 01:16:01,760 --> 01:16:04,200 Speaker 1: be a tough game. And you're going to Minnesota. You 1550 01:16:04,240 --> 01:16:06,720 Speaker 1: mentioned earlier, it's their first home game. They are going 1551 01:16:06,800 --> 01:16:09,679 Speaker 1: to be ready to go. Yeah, they've got some heat 1552 01:16:09,720 --> 01:16:11,880 Speaker 1: on him, Zimmer, their head coach. Normally, I always say 1553 01:16:11,880 --> 01:16:14,280 Speaker 1: I want to play a team who's lost. I'd rather 1554 01:16:14,280 --> 01:16:16,320 Speaker 1: play a team who's lost a game than won a game. 1555 01:16:16,320 --> 01:16:19,040 Speaker 1: And if the reason for me is if you've won, 1556 01:16:19,080 --> 01:16:21,639 Speaker 1: you're playing well. If you've lost, you're usually not. I'd 1557 01:16:21,720 --> 01:16:24,040 Speaker 1: rather play the team who's not playing well. Now, sometimes 1558 01:16:24,040 --> 01:16:27,599 Speaker 1: there's some adjustments that come into play there. This one 1559 01:16:27,840 --> 01:16:30,680 Speaker 1: is a little different because they're O and two and 1560 01:16:30,840 --> 01:16:34,240 Speaker 1: they are a wounded animal, and they are at home. 1561 01:16:34,360 --> 01:16:37,479 Speaker 1: They can't lose this game. They lose this game, Minnesota, 1562 01:16:37,479 --> 01:16:39,519 Speaker 1: they're other player. You go on three the statistics on 1563 01:16:39,640 --> 01:16:42,679 Speaker 1: that's crazy. So the Seacus have to play the best 1564 01:16:42,680 --> 01:16:45,280 Speaker 1: game of the year. It I don't know if it's 1565 01:16:45,280 --> 01:16:49,160 Speaker 1: the Yeah. Actually I wouldn't even say it's a tie 1566 01:16:49,240 --> 01:16:52,559 Speaker 1: with Indy. I think it's a similar team, maybe a 1567 01:16:52,560 --> 01:16:55,799 Speaker 1: better quarterback than Wentz. But you know, they got skilled 1568 01:16:55,800 --> 01:16:59,040 Speaker 1: people that are a challenge. Like last week. Last week 1569 01:16:59,080 --> 01:17:01,720 Speaker 1: they had a ton of skill position. You look at 1570 01:17:02,000 --> 01:17:06,960 Speaker 1: Minnesota across the board, wide receivers, running backs, quarterback. You know, 1571 01:17:06,960 --> 01:17:08,920 Speaker 1: we'll see if they can protect them. And if we are, 1572 01:17:10,439 --> 01:17:12,720 Speaker 1: we've got to start playing some man to man. We 1573 01:17:12,840 --> 01:17:15,160 Speaker 1: gotta start taking away the short stuff. Yea. If we're 1574 01:17:15,200 --> 01:17:18,519 Speaker 1: gonna keep playing three deep zone and teams are as 1575 01:17:18,520 --> 01:17:20,320 Speaker 1: hot as they are throwing the ball and dinking and 1576 01:17:20,400 --> 01:17:22,320 Speaker 1: Duncan and not even dinking Dune but hitting seven eight 1577 01:17:22,400 --> 01:17:25,559 Speaker 1: yard place. I think Bobby Wagner had ten tackles in 1578 01:17:25,640 --> 01:17:27,920 Speaker 1: the passing game last year. So they're working that middle 1579 01:17:27,960 --> 01:17:30,280 Speaker 1: of the field and if you're dropping in the zone, 1580 01:17:31,360 --> 01:17:32,960 Speaker 1: we're giving some of that up. So we're gonna have 1581 01:17:33,000 --> 01:17:34,760 Speaker 1: to tighten some things up. Play a man to man. 1582 01:17:34,880 --> 01:17:37,439 Speaker 1: Just play with play with confidence on defense. And this 1583 01:17:37,479 --> 01:17:39,559 Speaker 1: game is crucial. Man. After this game, you got the 1584 01:17:39,640 --> 01:17:41,920 Speaker 1: Niners at the Niners and the Rams come into town. 1585 01:17:41,920 --> 01:17:46,040 Speaker 1: You get into the division. You have to get into 1586 01:17:46,040 --> 01:17:49,240 Speaker 1: these division games feeling good about yourself and you have 1587 01:17:49,360 --> 01:17:52,479 Speaker 1: to get into these these division games correcting a lot 1588 01:17:52,560 --> 01:17:55,519 Speaker 1: of your wrongs. Russell Wilson has played some good football. 1589 01:17:55,680 --> 01:17:58,840 Speaker 1: My minus the overtime, they only had the ball once 1590 01:17:58,880 --> 01:18:00,720 Speaker 1: in the third quarter. You got to tip your head 1591 01:18:00,720 --> 01:18:02,599 Speaker 1: off to the Titans. They really just controlled that game. 1592 01:18:02,680 --> 01:18:04,559 Speaker 1: Russell had a chance to win the game, he just 1593 01:18:04,600 --> 01:18:06,640 Speaker 1: didn't do it. Doesn't mean the magic is gone this 1594 01:18:06,720 --> 01:18:08,600 Speaker 1: The NFL guys are going to make play. So I 1595 01:18:08,640 --> 01:18:11,400 Speaker 1: just want to see this offense continue to grow. And 1596 01:18:11,479 --> 01:18:13,640 Speaker 1: like you said, this defense has tightened a couple of 1597 01:18:13,680 --> 01:18:16,719 Speaker 1: things up. We need some more plays from those defensive linemen. 1598 01:18:16,760 --> 01:18:18,720 Speaker 1: I think the first week we saw Ratime Green, we 1599 01:18:18,760 --> 01:18:21,559 Speaker 1: saw Darryl Taylor. Those guys kind of disappeared week two. 1600 01:18:21,880 --> 01:18:25,880 Speaker 1: They're young, They're still finding their way. I like when 1601 01:18:26,680 --> 01:18:30,479 Speaker 1: Rabel is calling names out that aren't Locket, DK Russell 1602 01:18:30,840 --> 01:18:35,519 Speaker 1: and Jamal Adams, so Everett dis Lee, Carson yeah, yeah, 1603 01:18:35,520 --> 01:18:38,160 Speaker 1: I agree with that. We're spreading the football. It didn't 1604 01:18:38,160 --> 01:18:40,679 Speaker 1: feel that way last week. It's as comfortable as Russell 1605 01:18:40,760 --> 01:18:43,880 Speaker 1: look the first week. I don't want to say he 1606 01:18:43,880 --> 01:18:47,080 Speaker 1: looked uncomfortable. Last week, he just didn't look for whatever reason. 1607 01:18:47,080 --> 01:18:48,960 Speaker 1: I don't know what it was. You know, to me, 1608 01:18:49,720 --> 01:18:53,080 Speaker 1: Tennessee was a better defensive line than I thought they. 1609 01:18:53,760 --> 01:18:55,639 Speaker 1: Damian Lewis was hurt. I mean, you go and look 1610 01:18:55,640 --> 01:18:58,760 Speaker 1: at the first two plays. You know, Dwayne Brown got 1611 01:18:58,800 --> 01:19:01,679 Speaker 1: you know, pushed back. The next play, Damian Lewis got 1612 01:19:01,680 --> 01:19:05,360 Speaker 1: pushed back and Damien was hurt. I'm hoping he's healthy 1613 01:19:05,360 --> 01:19:07,479 Speaker 1: because that I think that's a big factor in our 1614 01:19:07,560 --> 01:19:09,479 Speaker 1: run game. We try to run to the left side 1615 01:19:09,760 --> 01:19:13,000 Speaker 1: where we need Damian Lewis healthy, and you know, if 1616 01:19:13,000 --> 01:19:16,519 Speaker 1: you get him Dwayne Brown together both healthy, we should 1617 01:19:16,560 --> 01:19:18,200 Speaker 1: be able to run the football. I like that. I 1618 01:19:18,320 --> 01:19:21,040 Speaker 1: like that Alex Collins should get a few more touches 1619 01:19:21,080 --> 01:19:23,080 Speaker 1: this week. You know that one big run he had, 1620 01:19:23,320 --> 01:19:25,400 Speaker 1: It was a great tackle by the defender there, but 1621 01:19:25,720 --> 01:19:27,720 Speaker 1: he had a nice run. D s Gridge is going 1622 01:19:27,760 --> 01:19:30,080 Speaker 1: to get healthy, and then I think offensively, you get 1623 01:19:30,080 --> 01:19:33,640 Speaker 1: those tight ends back in the game. I'm not worried, Um, 1624 01:19:33,840 --> 01:19:35,880 Speaker 1: but I'm a I'm a big, a bit anxious for 1625 01:19:35,920 --> 01:19:38,160 Speaker 1: this game. I want to there's some things that I 1626 01:19:38,760 --> 01:19:40,559 Speaker 1: want to see and I have to see to make 1627 01:19:40,640 --> 01:19:44,280 Speaker 1: me have the same feelings I had week one. Yeah, 1628 01:19:44,280 --> 01:19:47,280 Speaker 1: I'm not worried. Look Seahawks back. I mean, what's Russell 1629 01:19:47,320 --> 01:19:49,760 Speaker 1: Wilson's record after a loss? Are you kidding me? I 1630 01:19:49,800 --> 01:19:52,200 Speaker 1: mean it's it's off the charts. He's gonna play well. 1631 01:19:52,200 --> 01:19:54,120 Speaker 1: We're gonna play better because we have things to clean up. 1632 01:19:54,120 --> 01:19:56,360 Speaker 1: And that is the one thing about a loss. You 1633 01:19:56,479 --> 01:19:59,439 Speaker 1: go back and fix things. You know, when we're winning, 1634 01:19:59,479 --> 01:20:02,800 Speaker 1: sometimes you we're good. You know, quite self scout is 1635 01:20:03,000 --> 01:20:05,920 Speaker 1: as hard as sorry. Pete, if you're listening, I know 1636 01:20:06,000 --> 01:20:09,479 Speaker 1: you guys self scout, but you don't worry about something 1637 01:20:09,479 --> 01:20:12,800 Speaker 1: that may be working. Um, So we're gonna crack some things. 1638 01:20:12,800 --> 01:20:16,800 Speaker 1: We're not gonna play youthful mistakes this week, and I 1639 01:20:16,840 --> 01:20:19,639 Speaker 1: expect a nice win for us, no youthful mistakes. If 1640 01:20:19,640 --> 01:20:22,320 Speaker 1: we do that, there should be a W in the 1641 01:20:22,360 --> 01:20:24,519 Speaker 1: win column. All right, Well, home, bump, I'm gonna cut 1642 01:20:24,520 --> 01:20:26,360 Speaker 1: you off before we get out of here. Paul, you 1643 01:20:26,439 --> 01:20:30,120 Speaker 1: talked about record after loss, so Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson 1644 01:20:30,240 --> 01:20:34,080 Speaker 1: has a seven point seven nine one winning percentage after 1645 01:20:34,120 --> 01:20:36,679 Speaker 1: an in season loss. It's the best since the nineteen 1646 01:20:36,840 --> 01:20:40,960 Speaker 1: seventy merger. He's thirty four nine following a loss. That's 1647 01:20:41,000 --> 01:20:43,560 Speaker 1: pretty good. That goes back a long way too. That 1648 01:20:44,720 --> 01:20:47,120 Speaker 1: it's a double well, it's let's put this way. If 1649 01:20:47,160 --> 01:20:49,439 Speaker 1: you were in Vegas, that'd be a good bet. Yeah, 1650 01:20:49,479 --> 01:20:51,799 Speaker 1: good bet, good bet, all right, bet on these Hawks 1651 01:20:52,200 --> 01:20:54,559 Speaker 1: before we get out of here.
