Playfac go to roll right, jumps it off 3 00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:09,800 Speaker 1: into the right class to Michael Bumpers, who bounces off 4 00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:12,400 Speaker 1: a one tackler gets inside the forty down of the 5 00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:15,880 Speaker 1: thirty five yard line. Powered by Seahawks dot Com, Matt 6 00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:17,840 Speaker 1: pump fakes looking at the goal line. He throws it 7 00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:21,640 Speaker 1: into the end zone. Touchdown Seahawks. It's Michael Bumpus with 8 00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:25,320 Speaker 1: a diving catch in the end zone. Ten yard touchdown 9 00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:28,360 Speaker 1: reception for Bumpus and the kid out of Washington State 10 00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:31,960 Speaker 1: has found himself a place on this team. Now here's 11 00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:36,000 Speaker 1: your host, Nasa Chuby. For the second straight week, it's 12 00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:38,560 Speaker 1: a victory Monday here at the Virginia Mason Athletics Center 13 00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:41,560 Speaker 1: as the Seahawks beat the Chargers thirty seven to twenty 14 00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:44,199 Speaker 1: three on the road down at SOFI Stadium. It was 15 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:47,280 Speaker 1: a great game, one in all phases by the Seahawks 16 00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:50,160 Speaker 1: offense defense Special team from a like we do every week, 17 00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:53,120 Speaker 1: we get inside the trenches with our guy Ray Roberts. 18 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:58,720 Speaker 1: It's time to go inside the trenches with former Seahawk 19 00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 1: Ray Roberts. Ray this clearly, to me at least, was 20 00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 1: the seahawks most impressive win this season on the road, 21 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:08,120 Speaker 1: taking out a good Chargers team thirty seven twenty three. 22 00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:10,680 Speaker 1: Last week, it seemed like the defense really stepped up, 23 00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:12,880 Speaker 1: but this week it seemed like it was way more balanced. 24 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:16,440 Speaker 1: What stood out to you the most from this week's game, Well, 25 00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:18,000 Speaker 1: I think that the one thing that stood out was, 26 00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:19,840 Speaker 1: like what you just said in opening, it was two 27 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 1: you know, the second week in a rope would have win, 28 00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:24,760 Speaker 1: which is awesome. We talked about last week about not 29 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,920 Speaker 1: going win loss win loss, win lost, and then when 30 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 1: I watched the tape then it's just like it was 31 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:36,200 Speaker 1: like an whole team, every dude effort and the way 32 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:39,840 Speaker 1: the defense played like they played much more the defensive line. 33 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,560 Speaker 1: You know, even though Puna four may have had like 34 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:46,400 Speaker 1: a small stat line, his impact was different because he 35 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:51,560 Speaker 1: and Jefferson and Monee and was they all played on 36 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:53,880 Speaker 1: the other side of the on the offensive side of 37 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 1: a lot of scrimmish pretty much the whole day. So 38 00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 1: even though they weren't they may not have had like 39 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,080 Speaker 1: a ton of sacks, but the it was collapsing on 40 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 1: a quarterback that was trying to throw the ball. They 41 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:06,040 Speaker 1: had thing. They had three tip passes in three or 42 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:11,239 Speaker 1: four sacks. So just their aggression and more of attacking 43 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 1: mode on defense just allowed for a lot of guys 44 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 1: to be part of the action. Yesterday, Ray, I continue 45 00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,799 Speaker 1: to be impressed by this offensive line so far. They 46 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 1: got up against Bradley Chubb, you got Bosa, this week 47 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,120 Speaker 1: it was Khalil Mack and it seems like every week 48 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,399 Speaker 1: they they rise to the occasion. Cam Jordan a couple 49 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 1: of weeks ago, is it safe to say these guys 50 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,160 Speaker 1: are selling again? Obviously there's always more to learn and 51 00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 1: more to prove every week we can week out, But overall, man, 52 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 1: I'm extremely impressed by this offensive line, these tackles in general, 53 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 1: anything you saw, Yeah, absolutely. And the thing that I 54 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 1: liked that I'm starting to see is Damian Lewis. I 55 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 1: think it's starting to round into the guy that we 56 00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:00,120 Speaker 1: thought he was gonna be. Like during the game, just 57 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 1: seemed to more connected with the guys he was blocking. 58 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:05,920 Speaker 1: Sometimes you get into a block, you go two or 59 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 1: three steps and you kind of fall off, and then 60 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,240 Speaker 1: that defender has a chance to kind of step back 61 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 1: into the hole and stop the run for like a 62 00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 1: two or three yard game, whereas yesterday he was creating 63 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,720 Speaker 1: nice running lanes driving his guy off the ball three 64 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:20,919 Speaker 1: or four or five yards, And so that goes well 65 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 1: for the center because the better he plays, the better 66 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 1: the centers are going to play. And then you know, 67 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 1: and then the you know, even though Jake came in 68 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 1: for Phil and Phil was the replacing Gabe, that that 69 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 1: position held up well. So they were getting a lot 70 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 1: of push. And when you run into these zone type plays, 71 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 1: you need to have push in the middle to have 72 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 1: created the lanes for the running back to pick. And 73 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 1: you know, whether he wants to go on the front 74 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 1: side a gap or the backside a gap, or right 75 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 1: up the middle, he wants to bounce the day outside. 76 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 1: And if you watch yesterday, Kenneth Walker the third had 77 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 1: opportunities to do all of those things on all the 78 00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 1: different runs. You know, And like the seventy four yard 79 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 1: rum was beautiful, but like some of those four or 80 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 1: five yard runs in those eight or nine yard runs 81 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 1: were just as beautiful because of the way the blocking 82 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 1: was happening. Even looking at um a Charles Cross like 83 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 1: he just seems to have. This game was probably the 84 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:16,440 Speaker 1: most physical I've seen him in the running game trying 85 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 1: to finish blocks, being three and four or five yards 86 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 1: down until trying to finish the bos getting up to 87 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,719 Speaker 1: the second level. You know, Big Aide is just Big Aide. 88 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:26,040 Speaker 1: You know, the very one of the very first runs 89 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:28,240 Speaker 1: in the game, uh, you know, he had he put 90 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 1: a gall on his back and then I think it's 91 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 1: really hard to speak about this offensive line if you 92 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 1: don't include those three tight ends, because those three tight 93 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 1: ends who were blocking their butts off this past week. 94 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 1: The seventy four yard run was a run that they 95 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 1: had that they the same play they ran earlier in 96 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 1: the first quarter that picked up eight or nine to 97 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:50,120 Speaker 1: ten yards and Walker cut it up inside versus bunting 98 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,640 Speaker 1: bouncing to the outside the second time. He bounced it 99 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 1: to the outside and partisan had two blocks on that play. 100 00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 1: He helped displeay with his block, and then he ran 101 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 1: up the field and got the safety which from the 102 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 1: door for Kenneth Walker to break the Sunday four yard 103 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 1: touchdown runs. So it's really hard to include the offensive 104 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 1: line and their ability in the run game without including 105 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:11,520 Speaker 1: the tight ends. And you can say that the same 106 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 1: for the passing game because Dido keeps making them a 107 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 1: priority to go to, especially on tight ends day. Ray, 108 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 1: you mentioned ken Walker. Obviously, we'll take it back to 109 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:22,960 Speaker 1: the draft party in April. You called that you were 110 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 1: very excited. You thought the Seahawks will get after ken Walker. 111 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 1: They end up drafting him. Obviously, he's having a ton 112 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 1: of success. One hundred and sixty a yard rushing, two 113 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 1: touchdowns on Sunday. Now when you watch him, what's the 114 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:36,560 Speaker 1: most impressive thing about his game? And did you think 115 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 1: it would take a little longer to see the type 116 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 1: of success we're seeing, you know what I thought? You know, originally, 117 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 1: you know, obviously they had Rashard opinnion that he was 118 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 1: Rashard opinion that he was gonna be the kind of 119 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 1: the two punch to the one punch, and so it 120 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:52,320 Speaker 1: was going to be given time to kind of find 121 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 1: this way and figure out the offense and how to 122 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,160 Speaker 1: run and all that. But this dude was ready to go, 123 00:05:57,400 --> 00:05:59,479 Speaker 1: you know. And the thing I like about him is 124 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,839 Speaker 1: that they were trying to make comparisons to him in 125 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:05,919 Speaker 1: the game. And the one thing, and I'm not calling 126 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 1: Barry Sanders, but the one thing that Barry could do 127 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 1: was cut laterally and then explode vertically faster than you 128 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:15,839 Speaker 1: could make the defense can make the adjustment. And Kenneth 129 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,440 Speaker 1: has those same types of qualities, like he can his 130 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:20,919 Speaker 1: lateral movement and the way that he can make people 131 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 1: miss in the hole and then all of a sudden, 132 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 1: take one step and he's at full speed and he 133 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 1: can gain in or nine yards, so he can you know, 134 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 1: slow play that outside run. Then when he gets the 135 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 1: shoulders vertical, he takes off and he's running down the field. 136 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:36,920 Speaker 1: So his ability to go from horizontal to vertical faster 137 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,640 Speaker 1: that the defender can make that adjustment is one of 138 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:41,479 Speaker 1: the things that's impressive to me. And that's why he 139 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:46,039 Speaker 1: probably leaves the league and causing the most mistackles because 140 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:48,479 Speaker 1: the guy it's just really hard to get to the ground. 141 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:51,599 Speaker 1: He has great lateral movement, great footwork, and then he 142 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 1: can take one step and be full speed through the hole. 143 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 1: So that's the thing that's impressive about him to me. 144 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 1: Ray we saw this defense can taine Austin Ekeler in 145 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 1: the Charges running game as a whole in the fifty 146 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:05,680 Speaker 1: three yards on the ground. Next week you got sa 147 00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 1: Kuon Barkley coming into Looman obviously, he presents a different challenge, 148 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 1: more of a downhill running than Austin Ekeler. Do you 149 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 1: feel like this defense will be able to contain the 150 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 1: talents of this young man from Penn State. Yeah, I 151 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,960 Speaker 1: think as long as the defensive line all of them 152 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 1: are engaging the stack book. I mean, you think about yesterday, 153 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:31,360 Speaker 1: Jefferson May plays, Adams May plays, Tony four May plays, 154 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 1: I was made plays, Nuols, who May plays, Daryl Taylor 155 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 1: May plays, you know, like mass May plays. You know, 156 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 1: Bruce Irvin had some tackles. You know, as long as 157 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 1: that whole compliment of players are playing on the offensive 158 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 1: side of the line of scrimmage. And then with sa 159 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 1: Kwon Barkley, you have to rally to the ball. He's 160 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: he's a guy like he runs different than Barry, But 161 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 1: usually the first guys I got to bring him down. 162 00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 1: Or even when that first guy has a good hit 163 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 1: on him, he has a way of slipping off, keeping 164 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,320 Speaker 1: his balance whatever, and picking up another five or six 165 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 1: yards or spending off and taking it to the house. 166 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 1: So it's going to be important that they I've heard 167 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 1: this saying on the college football this week, but they 168 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 1: populate to the football it, which means that they need 169 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:19,240 Speaker 1: to get a lot of people there because that dude 170 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 1: can break it and you think that he's down and 171 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 1: he's still going. So that's going to be important for 172 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 1: them this week. Ray, I'll leave you with this. I 173 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 1: know we're really close to this team. Obviously, we've been 174 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 1: around to cover them throughout the year, from training camp 175 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:35,320 Speaker 1: to mini camps to the regular season. Now, everyone and 176 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 1: their moms outside of this building in this area thought 177 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 1: the Seahawks were not gonna be good. They were saying 178 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 1: they're only gonna win maybe five games this year. I've 179 00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 1: seen you on Twitter because you can't you can't not engage. 180 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 1: But going back on everyone who talked about whether it's 181 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,080 Speaker 1: Gino or Pete Carroll not knowing quarterbacks or Pete Carroll 182 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: not knowing when he's doing, to what they're doing on 183 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 1: the field, Now, when you see that kind of stuff 184 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:57,040 Speaker 1: and you kind of knew this was going to be 185 00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 1: the case from the jump, where do you think this 186 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:01,760 Speaker 1: team ceiling can go? Obviously still early in the year, 187 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:03,679 Speaker 1: but now obviously it seems like every time I turn 188 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:05,880 Speaker 1: on the TV, the seahawkstion now the new hottest thing. 189 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 1: All of a sudden. We've like we've been telling you 190 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:08,920 Speaker 1: this the whole time. So what do you think the 191 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:11,960 Speaker 1: ceiling of this team can be this year? No? I 192 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 1: really think if Gino and the offense just keeps every week, 193 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 1: they some element of the game gets better. So this week, 194 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:24,080 Speaker 1: you know, Godwin was a guy with two touchdowns, you know, 195 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 1: and and then uh Tyler was doing his same old thing. 196 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 1: DK went out the game and before you would say, like, man, 197 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 1: d K after game, well we're gonna struggle, like we're 198 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 1: gonna have a hard time moving the ball, or they're 199 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 1: they're gonna be able to isolate on Tyler and take 200 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:40,640 Speaker 1: him out. Who else is going to step up? But man, 201 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:42,439 Speaker 1: he has to be willing to shut down all three 202 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 1: the different skill sets that tight ends have, the speed 203 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 1: that Godwin has, the expert just trying to work his 204 00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 1: his way into it. You have you know, uh Tyler 205 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:55,880 Speaker 1: doing his thing, and then you have the running backside 206 00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:58,640 Speaker 1: of the backfield, and then Gino is just dropping dimes. 207 00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:00,440 Speaker 1: Like I know, I'll keep I try to make the 208 00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 1: comparison of him being a Mark Jackson instead of a 209 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,080 Speaker 1: Steph Curry, But I think he's somewhere in between there 210 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 1: because He's not just the Mark Jackson's just kind of 211 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:11,600 Speaker 1: distributing the ball. This dude is making plays. And then 212 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:13,920 Speaker 1: if you look at how the defense has come on 213 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,000 Speaker 1: in the last couple of weeks, and some people can 214 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 1: say like, well, Arizona, you know, didn't have the whole 215 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 1: bunch of injuries and this that nothing. But it was 216 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 1: important for this defense to see themselves executing this defense 217 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 1: and having success with it, because in that brief confidence, 218 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 1: you kind of go, Okay, this is how we this 219 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 1: is I'm supposed to play that. This is what it 220 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 1: looks like when coaches are asking me to wrong shoulder this, 221 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:37,080 Speaker 1: or get to the outside or set the edge, set 222 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:39,040 Speaker 1: the edge or whatever. And so then you follow that 223 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:41,560 Speaker 1: up last week, you know, this past week with a 224 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:45,720 Speaker 1: guy like the running back that they have for the Chargers, 225 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:49,920 Speaker 1: and he's a tough Eckler is a tough tackle. He's 226 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 1: a tough dude to get down in the passing game 227 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 1: and in the running game, and they did a great 228 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 1: job doing that. So I think with all of that 229 00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: progress and all of these things get better, and I think, 230 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,960 Speaker 1: you know, the second half of the season can be different, 231 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:03,800 Speaker 1: but I think they're gonna be different. So I can 232 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 1: see them winning the NFC West. I just think they're 233 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 1: that good, you know, and this wide open and if 234 00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 1: I look at how wide open it is and how 235 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:13,960 Speaker 1: teams are playing, and then who the coaches are, I'm 236 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 1: taking the Seahawks every time because the team is playing really, 237 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,720 Speaker 1: really well. And to me, Pete Carroll still doesn't get 238 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 1: when people start still kind of trying to highlight what 239 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:24,960 Speaker 1: he does as a coach. It's so great. That just 240 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,240 Speaker 1: means that they haven't been paying attention. And then because 241 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 1: he's been doing it from day one. And so I'll 242 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 1: take Pete and a good Seahawks football team over any 243 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 1: of the other teams and coaches in the division. Ray 244 00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 1: to speak that new existence, dog, I am, I'm here 245 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:40,320 Speaker 1: for it. I'm telling you, I'm gonna put this out there. 246 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 1: Me and Mom're gonna put this out there. Come January. 247 00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:45,080 Speaker 1: Win the NFC West. I'm gonna tell you a man, 248 00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 1: Ray told us on October twenty fourth, he already knew 249 00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:51,560 Speaker 1: about it. So Ray, every week, we appreciate it. Hopefully 250 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 1: we're talking to you next Monday after another Seahawks win. Man, Yeah, sure, 251 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 1: you guys have a good one. Appreciate thank you, Ray Pece. 252 00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:05,560 Speaker 1: See what happened at first, What had happened was we've 253 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 1: talked about this a couple of times over the years. 254 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:10,320 Speaker 1: Seahawks used to struggle a little bit at the beginning, 255 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:11,680 Speaker 1: as we know, you can't win the game till the 256 00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:13,960 Speaker 1: fourth quarter. You know what I'm saying. Things getting figure 257 00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 1: out in the second half. Well, not today, not on Sunday. 258 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,600 Speaker 1: I mean, the seats got after it right from the jump. 259 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 1: And the craziest thing was is Gino threw a pick 260 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 1: on the first drive. It was in this fault kind 261 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:26,439 Speaker 1: of a tight window. Did Lockey get interfered with? It 262 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:28,839 Speaker 1: was kind of a bang bang play ball gets shot 263 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:30,960 Speaker 1: up in the air, it gets picked off. But guess 264 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 1: who comes and play from the jump? The starting defense 265 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 1: come out there. It was an Austin Ekeler got about 266 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 1: four carries to get a huge fourth down stop. Ryan 267 00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:40,960 Speaker 1: Neil and Boy Mothey were leading the charge giving the 268 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,160 Speaker 1: ball to this offense. And on that first drive or 269 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:45,839 Speaker 1: the second drive when they got the ball back, Seahawks capitalize, 270 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 1: going eight plays sixty eight yards, had a couple of 271 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 1: pass interference penalties ending in a twenty yard touchdown to 272 00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:55,960 Speaker 1: Marquis good when really cool to see. Good when you know, 273 00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:59,800 Speaker 1: have some success from that third receiver position on Sunday, Yeah, 274 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 1: good when he saved the day. You know, especially when 275 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 1: DK goes out with an injury, you're looking to say, 276 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 1: all right, who's gonna step up? And Mark he's Goodwin 277 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 1: was that guy and the defense wasn't done. Ryan Neil 278 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:12,200 Speaker 1: would have an interception, which great, look like a Robbert look. 279 00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:14,920 Speaker 1: He gets downhill, intercepts the football, tries to get some 280 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,960 Speaker 1: money afterwards, and that set up ken Walker's first touchdown 281 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:21,720 Speaker 1: was a twelve yard touchdown. Nice little cutback. They made 282 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,719 Speaker 1: the score fourteen and zero. And then DT has his 283 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:28,559 Speaker 1: biggest play of the year. Man bends the corner, a 284 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 1: strip fumble, a striped sack, He picks it up, goes 285 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:34,199 Speaker 1: twenty one yards. That led to a field goal. Want 286 00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:35,800 Speaker 1: to get seven out of it, but no, we'll take 287 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:38,559 Speaker 1: some points and the Charger will get back in the game. 288 00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:41,199 Speaker 1: Austin Eckler scored a touchdown, then the Seahawks would fumble, 289 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:43,679 Speaker 1: and then that led to a thirteen yard pass two 290 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:46,959 Speaker 1: Mike Wims made the score seventeen to fourteen. At this point, 291 00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:49,600 Speaker 1: the game is still tight in play still needs to 292 00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 1: be made. Yeah, so it was a good thing. The 293 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:53,679 Speaker 1: Seahawks built a little bit of cushion, you know what 294 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 1: I'm saying. They're playing a good team. The Chargers are 295 00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:58,160 Speaker 1: very good football team with a lot of good players. Chargers. 296 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 1: Obviously you're gonna hold them down, You're gonna shut them out. 297 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,439 Speaker 1: But like you said, the Seahawks stayed in it. They're 298 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 1: up seventeen fourteen. A couple of obsessions later, they go 299 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,720 Speaker 1: on another seven play seventy three yard drive ending and 300 00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 1: another Marque's good one touchdown, So you're talking about saving 301 00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:13,439 Speaker 1: the day. It's twenty four to fourteen at the half 302 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:15,680 Speaker 1: with you know, with a guy that's coming out and 303 00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: making plays without dk Metcalfs. So you're feeling really good 304 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:21,440 Speaker 1: about this offense being up ten. They opened the second 305 00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:27,000 Speaker 1: half seventeen plays. Man took ten minutes off the clock. Okay, 306 00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:29,120 Speaker 1: so longest drive of the season. I think it's pretty 307 00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 1: safe to stay there. But taking ten plays off the 308 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:33,720 Speaker 1: clock and bum Let's talk about this drive spcipically for 309 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:36,080 Speaker 1: a little bit, because this is the drive where there's 310 00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:40,360 Speaker 1: a bantam fall. Start start on life doesn't move the 311 00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 1: football doesn't do anything, so it comes out of nowhere. 312 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:45,400 Speaker 1: It makes a third and ten. So now there's a 313 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 1: lot of chaos on the sideline. The rafts are talking 314 00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 1: and Gino talking and Pete there's a little you know, 315 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 1: Gino's going back and forth, and then Pete just kind 316 00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,240 Speaker 1: of looks at him kind of birth shops like hey, 317 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 1: we got this, Like be cool, we got you, Dodd, 318 00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:58,320 Speaker 1: and then Ga goes yup. Next play, Boom hits locking 319 00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:00,840 Speaker 1: for a first down on third and ten. I just 320 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,560 Speaker 1: loved everything about that moment because Gino's fiery, but he's like, okay, 321 00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:05,640 Speaker 1: I got you, and then has a coach's back, Boom 322 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:07,760 Speaker 1: gets the first down. So I just love the energy 323 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 1: in in you know, the swag, and it felt different 324 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:13,040 Speaker 1: to me offensively, just felt different. Yeah, it felt different, 325 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 1: and I love I love Gino chirping to the charters 326 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 1: sideline too. After that big play on third down, I'm like, 327 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 1: let's go. I can get with you. So now they 328 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:24,680 Speaker 1: forced the charges to punt, but then they were backed up, 329 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 1: and I think palm Oyer and Brian Watch has made 330 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 1: a good point. Field turf doesn't react the same as grass. 331 00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 1: So they were saying, you know, typically you're top put 332 00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 1: your hills at eight to ten yards if you got 333 00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 1: to move backward, if you're a pump returner, he let 334 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 1: that thing. Oh that's exactly what happened right there. But 335 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 1: the land is so softly, and so the Seals were 336 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:46,160 Speaker 1: backed up on their own two yard line, and then 337 00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:51,160 Speaker 1: the Chargers would get a safety. So um, that happens. 338 00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 1: But then ken Walker has an opportunity to redeem himself 339 00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 1: and redeem that whole situation. What does he do a 340 00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 1: little toss to the right. Bam, seventy four yards. My 341 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 1: guy ran twenty two points zero nine miles per hour, 342 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:07,040 Speaker 1: the fastest ball carrier in the league this year. And 343 00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 1: then the Chargers got some garbage time touchdown. They got 344 00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:12,720 Speaker 1: some yards. It's gonna look a bit prettier than in 345 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:16,160 Speaker 1: norm than it really was. But the second half, man 346 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 1: the defense, the defense really held this Charger offense. They 347 00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 1: went punt punt, punt, down's garbage touchdown. The defense has 348 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 1: another day. Despite the score. You're gonna see the score 349 00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:29,600 Speaker 1: and ask a lot of questions, but if you watched 350 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 1: the game, you know how it really went down. Absolutely, 351 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 1: it was thirty seven sixteen. That game was done In 352 00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 1: that point, Ken Walker put stamp on it. Game was over. 353 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 1: And really before that, the last drive of the first 354 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:42,720 Speaker 1: half was another punt, So the Seahawks defense to hold 355 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:45,800 Speaker 1: that Chargers offensive five straight punts. Yes, you know, Keenan 356 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 1: Allen didn't play as many reps as before, but he's 357 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 1: still out there. Mike Williams is still a really, really 358 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:52,840 Speaker 1: good player. He didn't get hurt till the very end 359 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 1: of that game. So hats off to the defense because 360 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:59,000 Speaker 1: whatever between Pete Carroll, Clint Hurt, Shan Decide Carl Scott, 361 00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 1: they got some figured out. For a while, there's a 362 00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:02,760 Speaker 1: lot of doubt, but it just took takes a little 363 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:04,840 Speaker 1: bit of time, and I feel like we're finally on 364 00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 1: our way to seeing what the potential this defense can 365 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 1: really be. But let's get back into talk about these playmakers. Playmakers. 366 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 1: The guy we were just talking about, Geno Smith twenty 367 00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 1: twenty seven, two hundred and ten yards, two touchdowns, one interception, 368 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:31,600 Speaker 1: QB rating of one oh five point five. With his 369 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:34,400 Speaker 1: two touchdowns in the first half, Geno tie John Freeze 370 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 1: for ninth place on the Seahawks all time passing touchdown 371 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:40,359 Speaker 1: the list with sixteen. Geno Smith leading this offense is 372 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:42,960 Speaker 1: now fifth in the NFL. I'm scoring averaging twenty six 373 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,479 Speaker 1: points per game. And there's nothing else I can say 374 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 1: about Geno that hasnt already been said. This man believe 375 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:51,680 Speaker 1: in himself. He's been consistent each and every single week. 376 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:53,639 Speaker 1: You know, you might be able to let some of 377 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 1: the outside noise creep in when you're starting to have success. 378 00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:58,520 Speaker 1: But he's the same dude as before. He's the same 379 00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:01,360 Speaker 1: dude when everyone was saying he can't play quarterback, when 380 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:03,960 Speaker 1: I believe one of those QB lists came out saying 381 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:06,800 Speaker 1: he was the forty second best quarterback in the league. 382 00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:09,640 Speaker 1: Wherever was No, He's the same dude, consistent as matter. 383 00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:11,440 Speaker 1: You're loving him, you're hating him. Gino just out there 384 00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 1: playing well, efficient. Nothing rattles him. So love to see 385 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:17,639 Speaker 1: what we're seeing from Gino. Man. Gino's a cool cat 386 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 1: right now. He gets fired up at the same time, 387 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:22,560 Speaker 1: but then he brings it back in when it's time 388 00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:24,959 Speaker 1: to execute. Different type of leader, but I love it. 389 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:27,679 Speaker 1: Ken Walker one of the playmakers. Twenty three carries one 390 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 1: hundred and sixty eight yards and two touchdowns. Now his 391 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:33,440 Speaker 1: seventy four yard run is the eighth longest run in 392 00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:37,080 Speaker 1: franchise history. Honestly, there's been some great runs of franchise history. 393 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:38,920 Speaker 1: If the seventy four yard run is the eighth of 394 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:41,640 Speaker 1: the longest run, I got a big up, Sean Alexander, 395 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:43,080 Speaker 1: he got an eighty eight yard or in that thing. 396 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:46,159 Speaker 1: Walker's two one hundred and sixty five yards are the 397 00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 1: most enfranchise history and a player's first who starts we 398 00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:51,920 Speaker 1: talk about that run. This guy ran twenty two point 399 00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:55,760 Speaker 1: zero nine miles per hour. That's the fastest buy a 400 00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:59,600 Speaker 1: ball carry this season, according to next gin stats, Walker's 401 00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:01,400 Speaker 1: the first. See how Ricky when one hundred and fifty 402 00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 1: yards and two rush touchdowns in a game since Lawyer's Guy, 403 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 1: Kurt Warner and h He has some other runs too. 404 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:09,840 Speaker 1: He had a thirty four yard run, a twenty one 405 00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:12,919 Speaker 1: yard run, breaking a lot of tackles. All he's missing 406 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:15,960 Speaker 1: now is just a big, big, big catch out the 407 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:18,440 Speaker 1: backfield or super screen or something like that. Because he's 408 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:20,840 Speaker 1: doing everything he can to help this team win games. 409 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 1: Man is staying contention. Ken Walker is a beast man. 410 00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 1: I can't I can't sit here and think I would. 411 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:28,200 Speaker 1: I knew he was gonna be stud I knew when 412 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:30,280 Speaker 1: we drafted him, I was excited, but what I wasn't 413 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:32,560 Speaker 1: sure was how quickly we're gonna see this right, because 414 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 1: you know we're shot. Penny was getting all the carries 415 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:35,960 Speaker 1: and he was really starting to come on. But the 416 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:38,119 Speaker 1: fact that what I really like is that's two straight 417 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:41,159 Speaker 1: weeks with over twenty carries for ken Walker. Yeah, he's like, 418 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:44,479 Speaker 1: I can handle it, and you know we're gonna give 419 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 1: him the rock and yeah, those those thighs, man, oh 420 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 1: my goodness. And we talked about it the other day. 421 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:53,880 Speaker 1: He's running. It doesn't feel like he's running that fast. Nah, 422 00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:56,600 Speaker 1: But but the talent. I've always noticed this, when you 423 00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 1: guys who are really fast, you look at the guys 424 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:00,920 Speaker 1: chasing them, that's you know, guy, they're fast, Because when 425 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 1: the dudes that are chasing them look like they're giving 426 00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:04,879 Speaker 1: them all on, they're moving and they're getting farther and 427 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:09,479 Speaker 1: farther behind, You're like, oh that boy moving now moving. 428 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:13,200 Speaker 1: Marquis Goodwin, of course, he was balling out two four receptions, 429 00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:16,040 Speaker 1: sixty seven yards, two touchdowns, first game of the touchdowns 430 00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:19,199 Speaker 1: since Week ten of last season, and honestly, for me, 431 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:21,359 Speaker 1: the biggest thing was really good to see receiver outside 432 00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:23,680 Speaker 1: of DK Metcalf for Tyler Lockett step up and really 433 00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:25,639 Speaker 1: be a big part of this offense. You know, d 434 00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:28,200 Speaker 1: Eskridge had started to kind of do that last couple 435 00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 1: of weeks. I still think there's gonna be good things 436 00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:31,399 Speaker 1: for him in this offense. I know he had to 437 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 1: fumble on the toss, but I still think he's gonna 438 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:36,240 Speaker 1: be a guy who's gonna contribute. So again, good to 439 00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:41,159 Speaker 1: see another number three receiver contribute offensively. Next up is 440 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:44,879 Speaker 1: Ryan Neil. Now, when the season started there was another safety, 441 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:46,800 Speaker 1: Josh Jones, who was getting a lot of the reps. 442 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,399 Speaker 1: Ryan was banged up a little bit. Now he's healthy. 443 00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:52,760 Speaker 1: Last week he had seven tackles, four passes defended, in 444 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:56,879 Speaker 1: one interception. He was on our show the huddle and 445 00:20:57,240 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 1: pretty much predicted that he was going to have an interception. 446 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:02,800 Speaker 1: So it's nice to see that come to life. And 447 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:04,920 Speaker 1: he was one of the guys too, when this defense 448 00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:07,959 Speaker 1: was struggling, who was being completely transparent and putting pressure 449 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:11,159 Speaker 1: on himself and his teammates to step this thing up 450 00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:13,800 Speaker 1: in the absence of Jamal adams Man. Ryan Neil plays 451 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:15,520 Speaker 1: a big rolle. He's got to continue to do it 452 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:17,960 Speaker 1: done and every year. Man. I saw him today in 453 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:19,840 Speaker 1: the locker room. I said, man, big play two six. 454 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:22,000 Speaker 1: We want a big play on defense, Go find two six. 455 00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:25,359 Speaker 1: Because he's always a last thing here for playmakers, this 456 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 1: offensive line, man Ray talks about. Lets give him some love. 457 00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:30,400 Speaker 1: It's a group effort. The Seahawks rush for two hundred 458 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:32,920 Speaker 1: and fourteen yards on thirty four carries, averaging six point 459 00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:36,480 Speaker 1: three yards to carry. Also clill Mack for Cluemack any 460 00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:38,760 Speaker 1: day or Clilmack is not in the backfield making a 461 00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:41,080 Speaker 1: ton of plays. Love to see and the other thing 462 00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:42,879 Speaker 1: I love to see, just one one other quick thing 463 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:45,560 Speaker 1: on this month. So it's a run by Ken Walker, right, 464 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 1: clil Max kind of standing over him, trying to rip 465 00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 1: the football out, kind of just trying to punk the 466 00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:52,200 Speaker 1: young rookie, and Ken walks like, yeah, na, dog, that's 467 00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:54,679 Speaker 1: not you know what I'm saying. And then everyone kind 468 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,240 Speaker 1: of got into which is funny. And then klil Max 469 00:21:57,359 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 1: walking off across the sideline. Shelby Harris is just laughing, 470 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:03,400 Speaker 1: right this day's laughing at him. So that's a good 471 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:05,400 Speaker 1: day up front. The big boys are killing the game. 472 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:08,000 Speaker 1: So I love to see what we're seeing there. Yeah, man, 473 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:09,679 Speaker 1: big ups to the old line. They don't get a 474 00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:13,399 Speaker 1: lot of love, so we always whenever we can shout 475 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:15,200 Speaker 1: them out. All right, Let's get to this wide receiver 476 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:18,199 Speaker 1: round that you talked about. Marquis Goodwin. He was the 477 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,880 Speaker 1: man of the day, four for sixty seven and two 478 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 1: touchdowns on five targets. Uncle Will Disley slowly having probably 479 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 1: one of his better seasons his rookie season. He scored 480 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:29,720 Speaker 1: a bunch of touchdowns earlier. Then he gets banged up, 481 00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:32,320 Speaker 1: but Uncle Will's making this thing go. The entire locket 482 00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 1: had seven for forty five, and people are gonna look 483 00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,120 Speaker 1: at the stat line and think he didn't do much, 484 00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:38,760 Speaker 1: but he had some crucial third down catches, especially on 485 00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:40,800 Speaker 1: that seven team play drive that we were talking about. 486 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 1: Clutch catches for this guy. Kobe Parkinson had one of 487 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,480 Speaker 1: the biggest or had the biggest pass play of the day, 488 00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:49,120 Speaker 1: nice little misdirection out the backfield. He had one catch 489 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:51,800 Speaker 1: for twenty eight before DK went down. He had one 490 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:54,480 Speaker 1: for twelve, almost scored a great touchdown. Noah fam had 491 00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:57,439 Speaker 1: one for seven. DJ Dallas didn't talk about him. He 492 00:22:57,480 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 1: had two for six, but he also had thirty eight 493 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:02,520 Speaker 1: yards rushing as well. DJ Dallas is gonna have to 494 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:06,040 Speaker 1: be that number two running back in his offense. Now 495 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 1: with that question, I think there's good stuff from DJ. 496 00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:10,800 Speaker 1: We've seen it quite frankly all season. We saw in 497 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:12,959 Speaker 1: the preseason he's kind of stepping in there. They kind 498 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:16,920 Speaker 1: of assist with Ken Walker. But Travis Homer is another 499 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:19,239 Speaker 1: guy that looks to come off the ir hopefully this week. 500 00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:22,400 Speaker 1: So we'll keep you posted there on that. Let's get 501 00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 1: into the coach's corner. We've talked about it all day. 502 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 1: We've talked about this man, Ken Walker, the seventy four 503 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:30,960 Speaker 1: yard touchdown run that sealed the ball game. First and 504 00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 1: Tim toss to Walker, goes right side, has a little 505 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:35,400 Speaker 1: running room, Parkinson out front here, goes up the side. 506 00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:37,719 Speaker 1: He's on the run fourty down to the three year 507 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 1: they're gonna catch him, I don't think so. Fifteen ten touchdown, 508 00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:48,359 Speaker 1: Sayhawks seventy four yards, but Seayhawks get the ball on 509 00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:53,280 Speaker 1: downs they toss it to ken Walker. The third he 510 00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:56,960 Speaker 1: gets fired out of a gatling gunning. He is gone 511 00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:01,639 Speaker 1: up the right side on seventy four and nobody got 512 00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:04,920 Speaker 1: a whipp and he is in to stretch. This lead 513 00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:09,000 Speaker 1: what a back or a breat play called the Seahawks 514 00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 1: now lead thirty six to sixteen. Man this there's not 515 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 1: a lot to this design, but there's a lot that 516 00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:20,320 Speaker 1: went down. So they're in a three tight end set. 517 00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:21,919 Speaker 1: You got two tight ends to the left, one to 518 00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:24,600 Speaker 1: the right. Uncle Will's to the right. You motioned Kobe 519 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 1: Parkinson over and then Gino tosses to the motion side. 520 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:31,560 Speaker 1: But I think people didn't really recognize here. Will Disley 521 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:33,720 Speaker 1: is supposed to seal that edge right there, and I 522 00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:36,879 Speaker 1: guarantee you Kobe Parkson is supposed to get outside of 523 00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:41,320 Speaker 1: Uncle Will Disley and escort the youngster up the field. 524 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:44,280 Speaker 1: But what happens is that guy over Will Disley gets 525 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:47,640 Speaker 1: so wide that Kobe Parkinson plays football and he goes 526 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:51,199 Speaker 1: in between Uncle Will and Abe Lucas. And when he 527 00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:53,679 Speaker 1: does that, he helps out Uncle Will with his block. Right, 528 00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:55,560 Speaker 1: Uncle Will has hands on him, he's in control them, 529 00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:57,840 Speaker 1: but boom hits him in the shoulder. Now that guy 530 00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:00,800 Speaker 1: drops to the ground, helps Uncle Will get a pancake. 531 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:04,040 Speaker 1: And then you look at again d Eskridge again involved 532 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:06,800 Speaker 1: on another big run. I think that's why one of 533 00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:08,639 Speaker 1: the reasons why this young man is getting more playing 534 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:11,080 Speaker 1: time because they know he can block. He's ficing, he 535 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 1: gets on that safety and now you have Kobe Parkinson 536 00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:17,399 Speaker 1: on the corner on the outside, gets just enough and 537 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:20,480 Speaker 1: the rest is just speed. Man, when you have this 538 00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 1: guy in the backfield, ken Walker would vision and with speed, 539 00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:26,000 Speaker 1: sometimes all you gotta do is getting a guy's way 540 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:29,560 Speaker 1: and let him read your block. And that was explosive. Man, 541 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:32,600 Speaker 1: we saw this play, we were excited. Didn't realize how 542 00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:35,200 Speaker 1: fast a young man was running. But this was a 543 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:38,480 Speaker 1: great pickup for the Seattle Seahouse. He get tags to 544 00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:40,680 Speaker 1: prove it every week. I love everything you said. They're 545 00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:43,600 Speaker 1: bumpo a spot on and you mentioned that's another one. 546 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:45,600 Speaker 1: The first two times I watched his play, I wasn't 547 00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:47,600 Speaker 1: really looking at him. He completely takes the safety of 548 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,960 Speaker 1: the play done. Yeah, absolutely, just that's that's You can't 549 00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:53,400 Speaker 1: ask for anything more than that from receiver blocking down field, 550 00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:56,159 Speaker 1: setting guys up for Kobe Parkinson, who a lot of 551 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 1: the knock on him coming in was you know, he's 552 00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:00,719 Speaker 1: just a pass catcher right out of Stanford, not anymore. 553 00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:02,680 Speaker 1: This offseason he put him the ton away and now 554 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:05,080 Speaker 1: he's a he's a factor in the run game. He 555 00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:08,000 Speaker 1: gets two blocks on this play alongside uncle will know 556 00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:10,040 Speaker 1: a fan on the back side of this play. Everyone 557 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:12,320 Speaker 1: just doing their job and then ken Walker being the 558 00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:16,239 Speaker 1: athlete that he is, a normal dude. It's a nine 559 00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:19,680 Speaker 1: yard game tactic on the sideline ken Walker. Every single 560 00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:22,240 Speaker 1: time he touches the ball, it's a home run potential. 561 00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:24,600 Speaker 1: And if you are a defensive back or if you're 562 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:26,880 Speaker 1: anyone in the backfield, your angles better be on point 563 00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 1: because this man is running. So I'm I'm petty too. 564 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:33,920 Speaker 1: I'm glad that Murray Junior didn't get him because he 565 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:35,399 Speaker 1: had a pick to start the game and he was 566 00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:38,480 Speaker 1: flex and he was he was soaking it all in. 567 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:41,200 Speaker 1: So yep, I'm petty. He all ran him our number nine. 568 00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:43,480 Speaker 1: I'll ran there, number nine. Oh yeah, and he all 569 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:44,760 Speaker 1: ran him by a lot, you know, rand him by 570 00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:47,600 Speaker 1: about fifteen yards. So great to see we got a 571 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:51,440 Speaker 1: special player in ken Walker number nine. Love to see 572 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:53,919 Speaker 1: it in. What I also love to see is getting 573 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 1: in that formation that means you won the football game. 574 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 1: Here it comes the Seahawks offense onto the field and 575 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:06,960 Speaker 1: the Vikings defense crunching out there knowing that one kneel 576 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 1: down and the Seahawks are gonna wind the clock down 577 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:13,760 Speaker 1: and women's fun. It's the victory formation on Hawk Talk. 578 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:15,960 Speaker 1: Like we said it started the show, this is the 579 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:18,800 Speaker 1: most balanced after by the Seahawks all season long. Defense 580 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,880 Speaker 1: played well, offense played well, special teams played well, did 581 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:24,480 Speaker 1: not give up the big play. Things were good, you 582 00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:26,119 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. So love to see what we 583 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:28,720 Speaker 1: saw from this team. Just balance. That's what Pete Carroll preaches. 584 00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:30,919 Speaker 1: They love to see balance. All three phases of the 585 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:35,000 Speaker 1: game played well. That's a good Chargers team down in La. Yeah. 586 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:36,280 Speaker 1: And I think I want to say the biggest play 587 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:38,280 Speaker 1: from Scimmers for the Charges was a twenty four yard 588 00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 1: touchdown to Mike Williams. So it was not a fifty 589 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:43,520 Speaker 1: yard and not an eighty one yard and not these 590 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:45,520 Speaker 1: big plays that we've seen over the years. So good 591 00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:47,560 Speaker 1: for them. We mentioned this guy. We'll do it again, 592 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:50,920 Speaker 1: man ken Walker. He showed that this second round pick 593 00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:54,960 Speaker 1: was perfect all right. Und sixty eight on twenty three carries. 594 00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:57,800 Speaker 1: He continues to do his thing and then Gino efficient 595 00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:01,840 Speaker 1: seventy four percent completion percentage, twenty seven, two touchdowns. He 596 00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:05,119 Speaker 1: played with energy, He played with some fire, but he 597 00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 1: also was composed when he needed to be composed. Gino Man, 598 00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:13,680 Speaker 1: I wonder if nationally he's getting the respect that he deserves, 599 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:16,680 Speaker 1: because reagionally you can't deny it. So I can't wait 600 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:18,720 Speaker 1: to sit down and watch sports in the night and 601 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 1: hopefully they gassed my guy up. It's starting to everything 602 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:24,600 Speaker 1: I've seen, whether it's the NFL Alive, whether it's Get Up, 603 00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:26,800 Speaker 1: there's enough people talking about him or stephen A. Smith 604 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:29,320 Speaker 1: talking about him, So it's slowly starting to get there, 605 00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:30,800 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So loved to see what 606 00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 1: we're seeing there. And I think a guy who's that 607 00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 1: consistent if his name wasn't, if he had a different 608 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:40,800 Speaker 1: name and people didn't already have their minds made about 609 00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:43,200 Speaker 1: who he was, they would be saying, Wow, that guy's 610 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,520 Speaker 1: in the MVP race here. If you look at the 611 00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:48,120 Speaker 1: numbers and what he's done to get the Seahawks team 612 00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:50,360 Speaker 1: to where it's at, anyone would be like, Oh, he's 613 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:53,480 Speaker 1: absolutely the MVP race. So I'm not saying Geno's gonna 614 00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:55,600 Speaker 1: win an MVP, but he's playing at that level and 615 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:57,320 Speaker 1: I think as weeks go on, we're gonna get more 616 00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:59,680 Speaker 1: recognition from that I just talked about a second ago. 617 00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:02,360 Speaker 1: The offensive line played really well, kept Gino upright for 618 00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:04,040 Speaker 1: most of the game. When we gave up two sacks, 619 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:06,760 Speaker 1: Climac had zero of them. So got a level we're 620 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:09,680 Speaker 1: seeing there this offense. We're just seeing the beginning of 621 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 1: what they can do. Their potential and their ceiling is 622 00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:15,440 Speaker 1: incredibly high. Ryan neil Man, he's playing at a very 623 00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:17,959 Speaker 1: high level. He's find like a starter in this league. 624 00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 1: I know people probably view him as a backup, but 625 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:23,920 Speaker 1: this is why you have depth, especially in the secondary, 626 00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:25,840 Speaker 1: with all the struggles they've had in the past. Ever 627 00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:28,520 Speaker 1: since Ryan Neills come along, all he's done is make 628 00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:31,680 Speaker 1: plays like you mentioned earlier. And then Seahawks won two 629 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:33,800 Speaker 1: games in a row for the first time all year. 630 00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:35,200 Speaker 1: That means it's the first time you and I are 631 00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 1: getting in the Victic formation back to back weeks. Let's 632 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:42,000 Speaker 1: make it three. Absolutely huge game for the Seahawks taking 633 00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 1: down the Chargers thirty seven twenty three. Huge game at 634 00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 1: Looming Field next week against the New York Giants, who 635 00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:51,280 Speaker 1: are six in one. Yes, the New York Giants six 636 00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:52,840 Speaker 1: in one for the first time since I believe the 637 00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:55,480 Speaker 1: early two thousands might have been a four, so we'll see. 638 00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:57,760 Speaker 1: Hopefully the Seahawks can get it done on Sunday. We'll 639 00:29:57,800 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 1: be back with you on Wednesday with a preview edition 640 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:03,680 Speaker 1: giving you everything you know about the Giants.
