WEBVTT - Hour 2 - More MNF Reaction, Bob Condotta 0:00:00.640 --> 0:00:03.480 You are listening to The Dan Patrick Show on Fox 0:00:03.560 --> 0:00:06.880 Sports Radio. We had a rough first hour here, at 0:00:07.000 --> 0:00:10.760 least Fritzie did. We'll see how we are an hour 0:00:10.960 --> 0:00:14.360 two check in with the Seahawks coming up in a 0:00:14.400 --> 0:00:18.080 little bit. I was surprised the greeting that Russell Wilson 0:00:18.160 --> 0:00:22.599 got not during the game. Before the game. I thought 0:00:22.640 --> 0:00:25.919 that they would acknowledge at least what he's done, what 0:00:26.000 --> 0:00:29.400 he did for that organization. Even when Brady went back 0:00:29.680 --> 0:00:32.919 to New England, they acknowledged him with a video tribute. 0:00:33.120 --> 0:00:36.000 I was just a little bit surprised there. Maybe not 0:00:36.080 --> 0:00:39.440 a big deal, but Russ, you know, they tried to 0:00:39.440 --> 0:00:41.720 trade him a couple of times. It wasn't I think 0:00:41.800 --> 0:00:43.560 Russ got to the point where he's like, all right, 0:00:44.000 --> 0:00:47.559 i'll go. Just help me fight a landing spot where 0:00:47.600 --> 0:00:50.280 I want to go, and I'll go. And the fact 0:00:50.280 --> 0:00:53.520 that Pete Carroll and Russell Wilson didn't have any interaction 0:00:53.640 --> 0:00:56.200 prior to that game, I think tells you an awful 0:00:56.240 --> 0:01:00.360 lot about that relationship or lack thereof eight seven seven 0:01:00.400 --> 0:01:03.280 three d P Show Email Andressdpat dan Patrick dot com, 0:01:03.320 --> 0:01:05.920 Twitter handle at DPS show. Say good morning. If you're 0:01:05.920 --> 0:01:08.880 watching on Peacock and why wouldn't you bet You can 0:01:09.160 --> 0:01:12.040 download the app you can watch that's a streaming partner, 0:01:12.240 --> 0:01:16.160 and our radio affiliates around the country numbering nearly four 0:01:16.280 --> 0:01:20.720 hundred Seahawks. Hold On beat the Bronchos seventeen to sixteen, 0:01:20.760 --> 0:01:25.480 and a lot of questions there for the coaching philosophy 0:01:25.640 --> 0:01:29.520 strategy that Nathaniel Hackett had for the Bronchos. In the 0:01:29.600 --> 0:01:31.960 final two minutes, they could have won it. They didn't 0:01:31.959 --> 0:01:35.640 play well, but they could have won it. And if 0:01:35.640 --> 0:01:37.880 you're a six six and a half point favored on 0:01:37.920 --> 0:01:41.360 the road, you should be winning those games. But you 0:01:41.440 --> 0:01:44.200 had your opportunity fourth and five. You decided that you 0:01:44.240 --> 0:01:46.840 were going to be in field goal range for sixty 0:01:46.959 --> 0:01:52.680 four yards. The probability of making that was around fourteen percent. 0:01:53.760 --> 0:01:57.040 The probability of letting Russ go for it on fourth 0:01:57.080 --> 0:02:00.960 and five, according to next Gen Stats, was forty two 0:02:01.240 --> 0:02:05.520 point one percent. Yes, do you think that teams they 0:02:05.520 --> 0:02:08.240 have all these analytics people. There's also I've heard that 0:02:08.320 --> 0:02:11.000 teams have like a clock management guy in the sidelines 0:02:11.040 --> 0:02:13.000 telling them what they should do in situations. Is there 0:02:13.040 --> 0:02:15.680 an analytics person who could get in someone's ear at 0:02:15.720 --> 0:02:18.600 that junction and goal. This is the wrong move or 0:02:19.520 --> 0:02:22.360 is the sport football too fast? Analyst guy doesn't have 0:02:22.360 --> 0:02:24.200 that kind of access to the head coach. Well, I 0:02:24.240 --> 0:02:27.920 would think you would have those numbers going into a game. Now, 0:02:28.160 --> 0:02:31.520 this is our kicker. This isn't mile high with the 0:02:31.560 --> 0:02:36.000 altitude at a fifty two hundred feet. This is elevation 0:02:36.120 --> 0:02:39.399 is sixteen feet. So you're not getting any bonus here, 0:02:39.440 --> 0:02:42.760 any added advantage. But I think this is more of 0:02:42.800 --> 0:02:48.600 a in the moment of field decision. Nathaniel Hackett, what 0:02:48.680 --> 0:02:53.239 are you feeling here, Russ. This is why you traded 0:02:53.320 --> 0:02:55.600 for him, That's why you pay him two hundred and 0:02:55.639 --> 0:02:58.960 fifty million dollars. You want him in this situation, you 0:02:59.120 --> 0:03:03.120 need him in the situation. You have him in that situation, 0:03:03.560 --> 0:03:07.519 and you took him off the field. It's really inexcusable. 0:03:08.280 --> 0:03:13.240 Here is Nathaniel Hackett who was hoping or maybe a 0:03:13.560 --> 0:03:17.320 shorter field goal attempt. Obviously I wish we would have 0:03:17.320 --> 0:03:19.240 gotten a lot closer, but it put us in that 0:03:19.280 --> 0:03:21.280 weird spot there because we were in the field goal range, 0:03:21.280 --> 0:03:24.000 but we were on that fourth down situation. Didn't think 0:03:24.000 --> 0:03:25.480 we were gonna get that many yards. So I thought 0:03:25.520 --> 0:03:27.680 it was a great job by Javante, and we just 0:03:27.720 --> 0:03:29.359 made the decision we want to take our shot there 0:03:29.800 --> 0:03:32.079 on that one. Yeah, I don't want a sixty four 0:03:32.160 --> 0:03:36.120 yard field goal. I'm gonna let Russ try to get 0:03:36.160 --> 0:03:39.720 five yards because I don't know how Seattle is going 0:03:39.760 --> 0:03:43.040 to play this, and they might allow you a little 0:03:43.080 --> 0:03:49.640 bit more room to move, and you have two timeouts 0:03:49.720 --> 0:03:53.080 after that, you're going to be in great shape and 0:03:53.160 --> 0:03:55.920 you'll probably get down to maybe a forty yard field goal, 0:03:56.120 --> 0:03:59.080 and that's the average field goal attempt in the NFL, 0:03:59.160 --> 0:04:01.680 A little bit less in that. That's what you want, 0:04:02.160 --> 0:04:08.280 not sixty four. Anybody who's ever played golf knows I 0:04:08.280 --> 0:04:11.120 don't know if I could get there. So you swing harder, 0:04:11.680 --> 0:04:14.720 you do something that's out of the ordinary. I got 0:04:14.720 --> 0:04:17.480 a sixty four yard field goal game on the line, 0:04:17.560 --> 0:04:22.560 and he pulled it left trying too hard instead of 0:04:23.040 --> 0:04:25.120 let me get you into a comfort zone. I have 0:04:25.240 --> 0:04:27.680 Russ in a comfort zone. He loves this. This is 0:04:27.720 --> 0:04:30.039 what he lives for. I got a kicker that I 0:04:30.040 --> 0:04:33.680 didn't put into a comfort zone there. But Russell Wilson, 0:04:34.080 --> 0:04:38.159 no surprise, backed up his coach and the call. I 0:04:38.200 --> 0:04:40.240 believe in coach Hack. I believe what we're doing. Um, 0:04:40.480 --> 0:04:43.279 you know, I believe in everything. And uh, you know, 0:04:43.800 --> 0:04:45.800 anytime you can try to find a way to make 0:04:45.839 --> 0:04:47.560 a play on fourth and five, that's a great too. 0:04:47.560 --> 0:04:49.040 But also I think I think I think it was 0:04:49.040 --> 0:04:50.760 the wrong decision. You know, I think he can make it. 0:04:50.800 --> 0:04:53.880 Obviously hindsight, you know we didn't make it. But if 0:04:53.880 --> 0:04:57.200 we're in that situation again, I wouldn't doubt whatever he decided. Okay, 0:04:58.760 --> 0:05:03.360 Russ is saying all the right thing because it's coded there. 0:05:03.400 --> 0:05:05.159 He talks about, you know, making a play on fourth 0:05:05.240 --> 0:05:08.479 and five. That's that's the real answer there, that he 0:05:08.520 --> 0:05:11.920 wanted to make him play. Of course he backs his coach. 0:05:11.960 --> 0:05:13.719 Should be news if he said, you know, I don't 0:05:13.720 --> 0:05:15.160 know about this hack. I don't know if he can 0:05:15.240 --> 0:05:21.600 hack it. You get that, like yeah, yeah, oh sorry, sorry? 0:05:22.000 --> 0:05:24.400 Is it too soon for the Broncos jokes there? For 0:05:24.920 --> 0:05:27.039 I want the analytics of with two delay of game 0:05:27.080 --> 0:05:29.359 penalties and the false starts and illegal motion and all 0:05:29.400 --> 0:05:31.240 the things that kept pushing them back, You've got a 0:05:31.279 --> 0:05:33.279 factor that in too, that could end up being now 0:05:33.320 --> 0:05:35.600 you're not gonna try sixty nine yard field goal or 0:05:35.720 --> 0:05:39.159 seventy four yard No, maybe a chance. No, if there's 0:05:39.200 --> 0:05:42.080 a false start, now you have to go for it. 0:05:42.640 --> 0:05:44.560 So you're not going to kick a sixty nine yard 0:05:44.600 --> 0:05:46.839 field goal. I wish I had more conference that that 0:05:46.839 --> 0:05:48.760 fourth and five is gonna they have to really go. 0:05:49.000 --> 0:05:52.040 You would have had fourth and ten, not a sixty 0:05:52.120 --> 0:05:55.440 nine yard field goal. I think that's why they decided 0:05:55.440 --> 0:05:56.960 to kick it at that moment. Said that while it 0:05:57.040 --> 0:05:59.760 was sixty four before, they have a false start situation 0:06:00.000 --> 0:06:02.320 and pushes it back. So you agree with the coach 0:06:02.520 --> 0:06:06.480 and that I wasn't as angry as a lot of us. Understand. 0:06:06.480 --> 0:06:09.160 It's Russell, So no, just yes or no, you agree 0:06:09.200 --> 0:06:11.800 with the coaching decision In the moment, I think it's 0:06:11.960 --> 0:06:15.520 simple black and they're kicking. That wasn't myrac so I 0:06:15.560 --> 0:06:17.480 guess I was okay with it. Then My reaction wasn't 0:06:17.520 --> 0:06:19.240 oh my god, they're kicking and not going front on 0:06:19.240 --> 0:06:22.719 fourth and five. That wasn't my reaction. I just thought, no, no, no, 0:06:22.720 --> 0:06:25.680 no no. If Drew Locke still in Denver, I get it. 0:06:25.960 --> 0:06:29.839 You got Russell Wilson that this is where you show 0:06:29.920 --> 0:06:33.520 the Seahawks and the rest of the NFL. Now we're players. 0:06:33.720 --> 0:06:36.080 Now you got to deal with us. We're gonna win 0:06:36.160 --> 0:06:39.760 these games. We would normally lose these games. We're winning 0:06:39.760 --> 0:06:43.040 these games because we had this quarterback. You took him 0:06:43.120 --> 0:06:49.040 off the field, go around. Let's say it was Tom Brady. 0:06:49.279 --> 0:06:54.400 Is he coming off the field fourth and five? Todd No, 0:06:54.839 --> 0:06:59.120 Aaron Rodgers, Nope, Patrick Mahomes, They'd all still be out 0:06:59.120 --> 0:07:03.479 there on fourth Batley. You have Russell Wilson. I gotta 0:07:03.600 --> 0:07:06.680 I have to trust him, and I want to do 0:07:06.720 --> 0:07:10.640 that from game one on. I want to say to him, Hey, 0:07:11.560 --> 0:07:15.560 let's ride. I'm riding with you. You go whatever happens, 0:07:16.080 --> 0:07:18.920 and you know what, if we don't make it, I'm 0:07:18.920 --> 0:07:21.880 going to answer all the questions here. I believe in 0:07:21.960 --> 0:07:25.960 you go out there, pick up the five yards. We're 0:07:25.960 --> 0:07:27.960 gonna go down and kick the game winning field goal. 0:07:28.960 --> 0:07:31.280 That would be my approach to it. Did he see 0:07:31.320 --> 0:07:33.200 something where he goes? I don't know. I don't know. 0:07:33.200 --> 0:07:39.840 If Russ is cooking right now, sixty four yards second longest, 0:07:39.880 --> 0:07:43.480 if they made it in NFL history on the road, 0:07:44.800 --> 0:07:49.160 if it's in Denver, I can at least accept it. 0:07:49.960 --> 0:07:55.679 I can at least go Okay, mile high elevation, hometown home, 0:07:55.840 --> 0:08:01.040 home field, advantage, familiarity, not on the road, sixty four yards, 0:08:01.400 --> 0:08:05.760 not in that situation, and the odds, you know, bear 0:08:05.840 --> 0:08:08.480 that out. Yeah, Polly, I'm to the point where I 0:08:08.480 --> 0:08:10.320 think it was such a wrong call that, let's say 0:08:10.360 --> 0:08:13.720 it was fourth and twelve at that same yard line, 0:08:13.800 --> 0:08:15.720 I would have still kept the ball in Russell's hands, 0:08:15.760 --> 0:08:17.600 And I bet the next gen stats would bear out 0:08:17.640 --> 0:08:20.520 that Russell Wilson went the ball fourth and twelve, you'd 0:08:20.520 --> 0:08:22.800 have a better shot of converting than a sixty four 0:08:22.880 --> 0:08:26.440 yard vehicle. McManus is one for seven in his career. Yeah, 0:08:26.640 --> 0:08:29.760 and it was from over sixty, from over sixty and 0:08:29.760 --> 0:08:31.920 it was sixty one yards, So you're still again, you're 0:08:31.960 --> 0:08:37.280 maxing him out completely. Yeah, I don't want to. Also, 0:08:37.320 --> 0:08:40.160 when I saw what was what Russ was wearing when 0:08:40.160 --> 0:08:43.400 he showed up, I thought, boy, it's gonna be tough 0:08:43.440 --> 0:08:45.880 to go to the podium if you lose wearing that 0:08:46.040 --> 0:08:51.640 shiny light lime green. What color was that? Awqua sea green, 0:08:51.720 --> 0:08:55.319 dan sea green, sea green. I like the jacket and pants, 0:08:55.440 --> 0:09:01.160 I didn't like the tie is too pee wee Hermann Herman. Okay, 0:09:01.800 --> 0:09:03.920 I thought there was a dumb and dumber field to 0:09:04.720 --> 0:09:07.160 the suit. Seaton sent that to me, you know, with 0:09:07.800 --> 0:09:11.560 Jim Carrey's at the bar and he's got the orange 0:09:11.640 --> 0:09:16.520 tuxed putting out the vibe at the bar. When Russ 0:09:16.640 --> 0:09:20.120 came in, I went, man, if you win, that's a 0:09:20.240 --> 0:09:22.520 damn good outfit. I was like, what time is it there? 0:09:24.240 --> 0:09:26.400 Did he just is that from the night before, just 0:09:26.559 --> 0:09:29.719 real early to the Galla Walk of Shame? Yeah, that one, 0:09:30.040 --> 0:09:33.439 that one's tough. That one was. I want to know 0:09:34.360 --> 0:09:38.440 the outfit he decided not to wear if if he said, yeah, yeah, 0:09:39.000 --> 0:09:45.200 I like it. People don't wear tuxedos during the day normally. 0:09:46.280 --> 0:09:49.960 People don't wear tuxedos normally to a football game. Yes time, 0:09:50.200 --> 0:09:52.640 I thought at least some players were they winning versus 0:09:52.760 --> 0:09:54.880 losing outfit. That's why I was surprised he was still 0:09:55.160 --> 0:09:57.240 wearing that. I thought, like, things don't go well, maybe 0:09:57.280 --> 0:09:58.960 I just throw on a Broncos sweatshirt and I had 0:09:58.960 --> 0:10:00.840 I'm not gonna be were that look at me? Here 0:10:00.880 --> 0:10:04.520 I come, I'm entering my old stadium outfit. Well, if 0:10:04.600 --> 0:10:07.840 you if you're bringing another outfit, I don't like that mindset. 0:10:08.040 --> 0:10:13.240 You're bringing a losing outfit. Yeah, maybe he had clothes 0:10:13.320 --> 0:10:20.679 that were similar to what you were yesterday. So no 0:10:20.920 --> 0:10:29.800 underwear that was a losing outfit yesterday. I wouldn't be 0:10:29.840 --> 0:10:31.760 wearing underwear after a loss like that. You gotta let 0:10:31.840 --> 0:10:33.679 something breathe. That was at the heart of year old 0:10:33.720 --> 0:10:37.800 pants by the way. I went out into the kitchen. 0:10:39.040 --> 0:10:41.000 And I don't know if the big German can take 0:10:41.040 --> 0:10:44.520 a picture of this if you're watching, but preparations are 0:10:44.600 --> 0:10:49.559 in place for a eide to the face. The it 0:10:49.679 --> 0:10:53.520 team is still working on the bet that was made yesterday? 0:10:53.840 --> 0:10:56.360 Was it in jest? There you go. If you're watching 0:10:56.440 --> 0:11:00.480 on Peacock, the big German is showing. There's the cross. 0:11:00.640 --> 0:11:03.760 That's very premature. That's a full start on the big German. 0:11:03.840 --> 0:11:06.760 If you want to listen back to what actually happen. Yes, well, 0:11:06.800 --> 0:11:08.480 you know I love about this office is the other 0:11:08.559 --> 0:11:11.240 day I needed pens and paper for work and we 0:11:11.320 --> 0:11:13.840 had none. But we have eighteen pie shows. We did 0:11:13.960 --> 0:11:18.040 cream ready to go, Yes, we do. They priorities here 0:11:19.040 --> 0:11:24.040 pole question for our two seaton O'Connor, oh man, this 0:11:24.120 --> 0:11:27.040 place is the best hour or two I put up 0:11:27.480 --> 0:11:29.679 one that I didn't even really run by you, but 0:11:29.840 --> 0:11:33.920 more entertaining this week college football or the NFL. There's 0:11:33.920 --> 0:11:38.520 a great weekend for both. But the problem is, and 0:11:38.640 --> 0:11:40.880 Paul brought this up earlier when I mentioned this to him, 0:11:41.679 --> 0:11:44.520 college football being on Saturday always gets wiped away by 0:11:44.559 --> 0:11:48.120 the NFL on Sunday Monday. Yeah, pretty much. It's like 0:11:48.240 --> 0:11:54.559 the opening act being better than the featured act. It 0:11:54.760 --> 0:11:58.040 takes a lot to trump the NFL. That was a 0:11:58.120 --> 0:12:03.319 hell of a weekend, though. Yeah. I think if Alabama 0:12:03.440 --> 0:12:07.400 had lost then then maybe because Notre Dame loses, A 0:12:07.520 --> 0:12:11.079 and M loses, and if Alabama had lost to Texas, 0:12:11.679 --> 0:12:16.960 now you get some interesting storylines and the long term ramifications. 0:12:17.120 --> 0:12:19.880 But A and M losing, I didn't think they'd play 0:12:19.920 --> 0:12:25.120 for a national title. Notre Dame that's getting kind of tasty. 0:12:26.040 --> 0:12:28.840 But if Alabama had lost night, say, all right, maybe 0:12:28.960 --> 0:12:31.360 maybe you're going toe to toe. A couple of phone 0:12:31.360 --> 0:12:34.240 calls in here, Warren in Seattle, High Warren, what's on 0:12:34.320 --> 0:12:37.160 your mind? What's up? Dan? Thanks for taking my top 0:12:37.240 --> 0:12:41.480 call six two two thirty three. Thank you, sir, A 0:12:41.600 --> 0:12:43.800 long time Seattle Seahawks fan man, and I got a 0:12:43.840 --> 0:12:45.480 lot of things I wanted to bring up here that 0:12:45.520 --> 0:12:47.640 you guys might want to talk about. But first of all, 0:12:47.640 --> 0:12:51.760 I agree with Paulie because you know, there's a something 0:12:51.840 --> 0:12:54.040 happened with Russ where he changed, you know, and and 0:12:54.160 --> 0:12:56.319 the Seahawks fan like he said, we're kind of conditioned 0:12:56.360 --> 0:12:58.679 where we're part of the game, and nobody was good 0:12:58.679 --> 0:13:00.440 to cheer for Russ like that. I mean I might 0:13:00.520 --> 0:13:02.520 have clapped it, but you wouldn't have heard me over 0:13:02.640 --> 0:13:04.719 the booth. So there there's that right there, you know. 0:13:05.400 --> 0:13:08.880 Um Also in uh, it kind of goes back all 0:13:08.920 --> 0:13:11.360 the way to you know, the super Bowl really and 0:13:11.640 --> 0:13:13.880 the loss, and that's that's a take. I didn't agree 0:13:13.920 --> 0:13:15.840 with paul on because he said the Atlanta one hurt, 0:13:15.880 --> 0:13:18.800 but it felt like I've lost family members then that 0:13:18.920 --> 0:13:20.920 didn't hurt as bad as bad loss. Right there. It 0:13:20.960 --> 0:13:22.920 felt like someone ripped my heart out, you know. And 0:13:23.520 --> 0:13:25.800 I always felt like Russ could have Warren, Warren, can 0:13:25.840 --> 0:13:28.240 you give me the names of the family members you lost? 0:13:28.360 --> 0:13:31.319 Just have that on record, you know, so maybe some 0:13:31.720 --> 0:13:35.360 other people h yeah, by my family probably knows who 0:13:35.400 --> 0:13:37.000 it is. But I'll just leave it at that, you know. 0:13:37.200 --> 0:13:39.839 But I always felt like Russ, you know, if you're 0:13:39.880 --> 0:13:42.600 the quarterback, you know, the right call. And I remember 0:13:42.679 --> 0:13:44.559 you said, actually this was last ride and it was 0:13:44.600 --> 0:13:46.440 like on the two yard line, but if you remember, 0:13:46.480 --> 0:13:48.040 they kind of handed the ball off and I want 0:13:48.080 --> 0:13:51.040 to say he got tripped up. Lynch almost scored in 0:13:51.120 --> 0:13:52.360 that play, and I want to say, that was on 0:13:52.440 --> 0:13:55.000 the sixth inch yard line, you know, and then he 0:13:55.080 --> 0:13:58.439 goes back to m Also, Pete Carroll kind is a 0:13:58.440 --> 0:14:02.040 little too. He loves his coordinators to a fault, you know. 0:14:02.120 --> 0:14:04.160 And I remember Daryl Bevill was kind of getting a 0:14:04.240 --> 0:14:07.280 lot of credit for the Russell Wilson pick, and I 0:14:07.280 --> 0:14:09.800 always felt like he loved Russell. It was like his 0:14:09.920 --> 0:14:13.240 golden boy and makes sense or coordinator QB, you know. 0:14:13.520 --> 0:14:15.520 And there was a lot of feeling for a lot 0:14:15.559 --> 0:14:18.760 of fans that they wanted Russell Wilson to win the 0:14:18.880 --> 0:14:21.400 MVP instead of winning the game. It's like they kind 0:14:21.440 --> 0:14:23.680 of wanted him to get it. And that was and 0:14:23.760 --> 0:14:26.440 I've heard that storyline before, Warren, And thanks for the 0:14:26.520 --> 0:14:29.960 phone call, that they did want Russ to win the MVP, 0:14:30.120 --> 0:14:32.840 because if Marshawn Lynch scores, is Marshawn going to be 0:14:32.880 --> 0:14:37.920 the MVP. But it seems like a long time ago. 0:14:38.520 --> 0:14:42.200 I was just looking for an acknowledgement. That's all, just 0:14:42.320 --> 0:14:45.640 a little acknowledgement. Maybe it's too soon with Russell Wilson 0:14:45.720 --> 0:14:48.280 coming back and it's week one. It's like Peyton Manning 0:14:48.320 --> 0:14:51.080 brought this up last night when he went back to Indianapolis. 0:14:51.200 --> 0:14:55.320 It was year two after he was let go seven 0:14:55.400 --> 0:14:58.800 games into the regular season. Plus they moved on and 0:14:58.840 --> 0:15:01.520 they had Andrew Luck. Like you got to be thrilled. 0:15:01.960 --> 0:15:06.960 Peyton's damaged goods. We got Andrew Luck. Oh you're going, hey, Peyton, Yeah, 0:15:07.000 --> 0:15:09.400 how good to have you back. Even better, we got 0:15:09.480 --> 0:15:12.520 Andrew Luck on our team. You know, Seattle's probably gone, 0:15:13.000 --> 0:15:16.920 you know, damn you Russ. We got Gino Smith and 0:15:17.080 --> 0:15:22.800 Drew Luck. Although Gino Smith played, if he can play 0:15:22.920 --> 0:15:26.440 like that, and you know, you can be competitive. I 0:15:26.560 --> 0:15:30.480 don't know what Jamal Adams. That seemed like a serious injury, 0:15:31.200 --> 0:15:33.520 and I wonder about that as well. But they do 0:15:33.720 --> 0:15:37.640 have some players, they have some playmakers there. I just 0:15:37.720 --> 0:15:40.240 don't know if you can win with Pete's philosophy of 0:15:40.320 --> 0:15:43.760 playing defense and running the football. But it was good 0:15:43.880 --> 0:15:47.400 enough last night. More phone calls coming up. We'll take 0:15:47.440 --> 0:15:50.800 a break we'll check in with the Seahawks. Was there 0:15:50.840 --> 0:15:53.600 any plan to acknowledge Russ? Will there be any plan 0:15:53.880 --> 0:15:57.960 at all to acknowledge Russ? Maybe not down the road. 0:15:58.240 --> 0:16:00.600 I don't know. The next time the Broncos to Seattle 0:16:01.480 --> 0:16:03.840 probably going to be a couple of years there. Well, 0:16:03.880 --> 0:16:06.560 take a break, we're back after this Dan Patrick show. 0:16:08.240 --> 0:16:11.520 Tire Iraq.

The official trading 0:17:29.480 --> 0:17:33.320 cards of The Dan Patrick Show. Bob Condota covers the 0:17:33.400 --> 0:17:36.399 Seahawks for the Seattle Times. Kind enough to join us 0:17:36.480 --> 0:17:39.600 after last night's festivities. What was the build up like 0:17:39.960 --> 0:17:44.680 this past week, Bob to this matchup? M? Well, yeah, 0:17:44.760 --> 0:17:46.639 pretty much. Will you extuct? I mean, obviously a lot 0:17:46.680 --> 0:17:49.280 of a lot of excitement and eagerness and a lot 0:17:49.320 --> 0:17:51.399 of people curious to see how how this is going 0:17:51.440 --> 0:17:53.800 to turn out. With Russell coming back, I mean, he's um, 0:17:54.280 --> 0:17:56.240 you know, he's he's by far I think, you know, 0:17:56.280 --> 0:17:58.200 I think no offense to mast hassle deck, but I 0:17:58.200 --> 0:18:00.680 think he's the best quarterback and ants and probably the 0:18:01.119 --> 0:18:03.359 probably about the most important player a team history, with 0:18:03.800 --> 0:18:06.919 being the finishing piece on the other team that won 0:18:06.960 --> 0:18:08.920 the city. It's only Super Bowl, but obviously there was 0:18:08.920 --> 0:18:11.720 a lot of contentiousness over the last two years basically 0:18:11.840 --> 0:18:14.879 and leading up into the trade. So, um, you know, 0:18:14.960 --> 0:18:17.000 there's a lot of the mixed and conflicting emotions. And 0:18:17.040 --> 0:18:18.560 I think you said that come out at at the 0:18:18.600 --> 0:18:21.320 stadium last night. I guess I was a little bit surprised. 0:18:21.359 --> 0:18:24.320 And I know this is outside looking in, and that 0:18:24.600 --> 0:18:28.320 is there was really no acknowledgement or tribute to Russ 0:18:28.600 --> 0:18:31.479 prior to the game. It felt like as soon as 0:18:31.520 --> 0:18:34.080 he walked out, that was it. We don't know who 0:18:34.160 --> 0:18:36.480 you are, we don't care who you are. And I 0:18:36.600 --> 0:18:38.959 was just wondering about that that even when Brady went 0:18:39.000 --> 0:18:41.000 back to New England, I mean, they did give a 0:18:41.080 --> 0:18:43.320 little bit of a tribute, a video tribute to him. 0:18:43.359 --> 0:18:48.200 So why was there no grace period or a hey, 0:18:48.440 --> 0:18:50.880 we'll spend three minutes. Now we move on and you're 0:18:50.960 --> 0:18:55.359 the opposition. Yeah, you know, I didn't ask that question 0:18:55.400 --> 0:18:57.520 specifically of anybody, so I guess I don't know if 0:18:57.680 --> 0:19:00.880 if the organization considered it, but I think that goes 0:19:00.960 --> 0:19:03.639 in a little bit with Pete Carroll's always compete kind 0:19:03.680 --> 0:19:05.360 of thing that you know that he's on the side. 0:19:05.440 --> 0:19:08.199 He's on the other side now, and there's that there 0:19:08.200 --> 0:19:10.040 will be a time and place for doing that. You know, 0:19:10.160 --> 0:19:12.600 maybe maybe ten or fifteen years from now when everybody's 0:19:12.720 --> 0:19:17.480 hears are over. So that's a long time, Bob. Yeah, yeah, 0:19:17.600 --> 0:19:20.400 Well but as you know, you know better than anybody, 0:19:20.640 --> 0:19:23.119 you know, Russell sort of wanted out, you know. So 0:19:23.320 --> 0:19:25.520 I think they're like, you know, are you gonna you know, 0:19:25.560 --> 0:19:27.800 a guy who guy who wanted out of town? Are 0:19:27.840 --> 0:19:30.960 we then gonna just kind of welcoming back with open 0:19:31.080 --> 0:19:34.320 arms the one time he comes back as as the opponent, 0:19:34.720 --> 0:19:36.679 you know. So I think there's some of that at 0:19:36.760 --> 0:19:39.520 play here, you know, I think it. I mean, we 0:19:39.600 --> 0:19:42.040 all know this wasn't you know, this wasn't the totally 0:19:42.119 --> 0:19:46.439 smooth but in fairness to Russ, and I don't want 0:19:46.480 --> 0:19:49.040 to be the Russ whisperer, but you know, the story 0:19:49.119 --> 0:19:51.679 that came out in twenty eighteen is they were they 0:19:51.760 --> 0:19:53.880 were gonna trade they were in trade Russ to Cleveland 0:19:53.920 --> 0:19:56.200 to get you know, uh, the number one pick on 0:19:56.280 --> 0:20:00.280 the draft, and they were gonna take Josh Josh Ellen. 0:20:00.680 --> 0:20:02.560 So I don't know how close that I don't know 0:20:02.600 --> 0:20:04.320 how close that. I mean, I don't know that that 0:20:04.400 --> 0:20:06.440 was more than about three minute conversation. It was just 0:20:06.560 --> 0:20:09.520 sort of a you know, would you actually entertain this? 0:20:09.720 --> 0:20:11.600 I think that was more of the Seahawks just kind 0:20:11.640 --> 0:20:14.000 of trying to see if anybody even would do something 0:20:14.119 --> 0:20:16.280 like that at that time, and just kind of trying 0:20:16.320 --> 0:20:18.200 to gaze the market. I thought there was a report 0:20:18.280 --> 0:20:22.720 that came out that that was acknowledged, and also you know, yeah, 0:20:22.800 --> 0:20:24.760 I'm saying I think I do. Yeah, I do think 0:20:24.800 --> 0:20:27.080 they talked that, but I don't think it was it 0:20:27.320 --> 0:20:29.400 was will do it? If you say yes, I don't 0:20:29.440 --> 0:20:31.040 think it was that close. I think it was more 0:20:31.040 --> 0:20:33.840 of a you know, just two GM's talking kind of thing. 0:20:34.160 --> 0:20:38.080 But do you think Pete like they didn't even acknowledge 0:20:38.119 --> 0:20:40.760 each other on the field pregame. I don't think they 0:20:40.840 --> 0:20:43.240 did not pregame. They did after the game, but yeah, 0:20:43.280 --> 0:20:47.159 they know they they didn't pregame, But I don't know 0:20:47.240 --> 0:20:49.239 that they were on the field together a whole lot um, 0:20:49.800 --> 0:20:53.200 you know. I Russ sort of did his his pregame thing, 0:20:53.440 --> 0:20:55.720 you know, pretty early, and Pete was you know, and 0:20:55.840 --> 0:20:58.000 maybe Pete intentionally wasn't out there at that early, but 0:20:58.320 --> 0:21:00.680 a lot of times he's not, you know, the two 0:21:00.720 --> 0:21:03.560 hours prior to the game thing when when everybody's out there, 0:21:03.560 --> 0:21:05.239 and then once you know, once the teams are out 0:21:05.280 --> 0:21:08.080 there doing their doing their things together. But again I 0:21:08.480 --> 0:21:11.280 don't it's pretty obvious, isn't it to the outside world. 0:21:11.320 --> 0:21:14.359 This wasn't a happy breakup. So you know, I, you know, 0:21:14.480 --> 0:21:16.600 I don't know. If you see your ex wife, it's 0:21:16.600 --> 0:21:18.520 some social function to you then kind of go up 0:21:18.520 --> 0:21:21.879 and ask like you act like your best friends, you know, 0:21:21.960 --> 0:21:23.800 the first time you see them. Well, I usually do 0:21:24.240 --> 0:21:27.000 a video tribute. Time is going to be needed here. Yeah, 0:21:27.000 --> 0:21:29.760 I would do a video tribute if I was married 0:21:29.840 --> 0:21:33.160 before and I saw my ex wife, you know, I'd 0:21:33.200 --> 0:21:35.680 always do that. Okay. So I think a lot of 0:21:35.720 --> 0:21:39.240 people on the outside looking in thought Seattle maybe they're 0:21:39.280 --> 0:21:41.879 tanking that they didn't really make a move. You know, 0:21:41.960 --> 0:21:44.000
