Speaker 1: None with my man Paul Moore. It's nice to see you, man, Oh,

2
00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:09,360
Speaker 1: what's good to see you as well. And I've I've

3
00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:11,800
Speaker 1: spent a lot of time here at the Bellevue Mall,

4
00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:14,640
Speaker 1: and throughout my lifetime spent a lot of money, that's

5
00:00:14,680 --> 00:00:17,160
Speaker 1: for sure. So my first time. This is a great setup.

6
00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:21,360
Speaker 1: We've got an unbelievable stage. This is presented by Bellevue Collection.

7
00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:23,239
Speaker 1: If you don't know Bellevue Collection, it's part of the

8
00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:28,280
Speaker 1: Lincoln Square Mall. Also the collection here at the Bellevue Square.

00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:33,760
Speaker 1: So um, big big production, massive restaurants, towers here for

10
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:36,680
Speaker 1: for condos, you name it. So um. They've done quite

11
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:39,240
Speaker 1: the job here of creating an atmosphere for us and

12
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:41,919
Speaker 1: my first time doing a show on a couch as well.

13
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:43,800
Speaker 1: We run accounts. We're all lounger right now. Yes, we're

14
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:45,959
Speaker 1: allowing you ru in the middle of the mall. That's

15
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:48,199
Speaker 1: a good scene right here. But uh, why are we

16
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:51,040
Speaker 1: here talk a little fullball? Thank goodness, man, We got

17
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:52,600
Speaker 1: you know who's coming in town. First of that said,

18
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:56,160
Speaker 1: the stage, Russell's Russell's gone, Bobby's gone. All right, this

19
00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:58,320
Speaker 1: is a new fullball team. Ken Norton is gone, you

20
00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:01,360
Speaker 1: got Clinton hurt at the spot, you got Carl Scott

21
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:04,360
Speaker 1: coming in, you got Sean Desai on one side of

22
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:06,920
Speaker 1: the football. Shane waldd into in his second year as

23
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:08,920
Speaker 1: the offense accorded had a lot of change going on

24
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:12,160
Speaker 1: with this football team, and the focus has been the

25
00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:14,480
Speaker 1: quarterback position. We're gonna see a nice little matchup all

26
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:17,080
Speaker 1: Monday fall. Yeah, I mean, look, it's gonna be huge.

27
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 1: I mean there's a lot of talking at do you

28
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:21,240
Speaker 1: boo Russell Wilson? Do you cheer him? I'm just gonna

29
00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:23,720
Speaker 1: get out of the way. I think you cheer him initially.

30
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 1: It just you know, he did at you chair him

31
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:29,000
Speaker 1: during pregame War Month when he first walks out, man's

32
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:30,920
Speaker 1: do you have to here? A little you know, splattering

33
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:35,479
Speaker 1: of applause, But man, it's competitions. He's the enemy now.

34
00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:38,280
Speaker 1: He wanted to be traded, he went to another team.

35
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:41,839
Speaker 1: He's he's the enemy now and you got to treat

36
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:44,560
Speaker 1: him like the enemy once the game starts. I'm looking

37
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 1: forward to this because I'm curious to see what kind

38
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:48,360
Speaker 1: of team we have. We don't know yet, but we

39
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:50,760
Speaker 1: didn't play really, we didn't play thirteen starters for the

40
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:53,640
Speaker 1: most part through preseason, and a lot of people were frustrated,

41
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:56,880
Speaker 1: you know, maybe how the preseason went, but we're trying

42
00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 1: to get one who is gonna play two. Got to

43
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,160
Speaker 1: get these young guys ready to go, and we're gonna

44
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 1: be counting on young guys. So I don't know. We

45
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,840
Speaker 1: may go seventeen to no and we have no idea,

46
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 1: but we also may be one of those. Look, we

47
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,080
Speaker 1: just gotta take baby steps right now. I mean, we're

48
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,960
Speaker 1: so young with a good nucleus what I call up

49
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 1: the middle, you know, with the safeties. I think our

50
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 1: middle linebacker on defense. I think we're gonna be much

51
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,680
Speaker 1: better offensively than people think because I think our offensive

52
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:25,359
Speaker 1: line is gonna gel. We got a lot of depth there.

53
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 1: We've got great running backs, great receivers. The question mark

54
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:30,919
Speaker 1: is going to be on the quarterback. But I just

55
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,600
Speaker 1: don't believe that at the end of the day, we're

56
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 1: gonna say the reason why we won in losses because

57
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 1: of the quarterback. Everybody's got to do their job and

58
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:42,079
Speaker 1: we've got talent, and it's gonna be interesting to see

59
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 1: how these young guys respond to a regular season, because

60
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,640
Speaker 1: you know, it's much different than preseason. But we've got talent.

61
00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 1: We've got good youth speed. I think guys who love

62
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 1: to play football, and that's something that we needed to

63
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 1: get back to get guys who just they live and

64
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:59,799
Speaker 1: die by by the game. So I'm curious. I know

65
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:03,160
Speaker 1: what he knows. Nobody don't know's it's sad to see

66
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:04,840
Speaker 1: these guys go right, it's sad to see some of

67
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 1: the change us happening, but it's also refreshing to see

68
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:09,240
Speaker 1: these new guys coming in and you combine them with

69
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,600
Speaker 1: the old guys, with the DKs, with the locket with

70
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 1: Rashot Penny, see if he can prove him so. And

71
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 1: then this offensive line, you got two rookie tackles out

72
00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 1: of gonna start. You got one tackle, Charles Cross, so

73
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:20,920
Speaker 1: we're gonna talk to a bit later. You also have

74
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 1: Abe Lucas gold Coogs, my guy who drove down in

75
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:25,960
Speaker 1: every went to ars bits of high school. He's playing there.

76
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:27,760
Speaker 1: But you talk about the middle, and I focus on

77
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 1: the middle of the field when it comes to the offense.

78
00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:32,320
Speaker 1: The middle, you got Austin blythe right. He's a new

79
00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 1: guy here, but he's been in this league for a while.

80
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 1: He can play. You got Damian Lewis, you got Gabe Jackson,

81
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 1: you got Gino. Lots of pressure on Gino. You're following

82
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 1: the greatest quarterback in Seahawk history. But we'll see what

83
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 1: they can do. And then in the backfield, you got

84
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:46,080
Speaker 1: some veterans in Rashott and Penny and DJ Dallas. I

85
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 1: gotta show him some love right now. He had one

86
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,240
Speaker 1: of the best preseasons two years in a row four

87
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 1: back of running back. Well, I think we have two

88
00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 1: years now where our draft picks have been. I think exceptional.

89
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 1: We're gonna count on them. Hey both last year, and

90
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 1: we're gonna count on these guys this year. I mean,

91
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:03,880
Speaker 1: there's we're gonna start. It looks like three rookies, one

92
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:09,200
Speaker 1: at quarter at cornerback, which, um you know that is that? Well,

93
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 1: it's his skill sets ridiculous. He's sick. I'm talking about

94
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,240
Speaker 1: wool and Um he's six foot four. The guy ran

95
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,279
Speaker 1: a four two you know, would just round it down

96
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 1: four two forty in the combine. Um, he's a physical guy.

97
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,360
Speaker 1: But he played, you know, in a conference that didn't

98
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:27,240
Speaker 1: have maybe the greatest competition, So it's a jump. Now.

99
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:30,599
Speaker 1: He was phenomenal in preseason through practice and really the

100
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:33,039
Speaker 1: second and third preseason game, even the first game, but

101
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:35,680
Speaker 1: the first drive, you know, he may had a couple

102
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 1: of mistakes gifted Oh man, there's no question about it.

103
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 1: But man, the regular season, I don't doubt he has

104
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:47,359
Speaker 1: the ability to play. What I'm my what I'll be

105
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 1: looking for is he's going to have some moments where

106
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:53,360
Speaker 1: he struggles. He may get beat deep. It's gonna be

107
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:56,039
Speaker 1: hard to beat beat him deep. He may get beat

108
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,480
Speaker 1: on a well, not any six four and he no

109
00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 1: one pulls away from DK METC does not pull away

110
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:04,039
Speaker 1: from on practice. So his speed is real. But it's

111
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:06,039
Speaker 1: the I gave up a twenty yard out, maybe I

112
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:08,640
Speaker 1: blew an assignment. How do you recover it? Because the

113
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 1: plays are so magnified during the regular season, every play

114
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,679
Speaker 1: is critical. In preseason it's not. And so I always

115
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,360
Speaker 1: look at rookies. You're going to get beat, You're gonna struggle,

116
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:20,920
Speaker 1: but how do you respond to that? And so hopefully

117
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 1: we get off to a good start there. I think

118
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:25,360
Speaker 1: both offensive tackles are gonna do fine, and because we're

119
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:27,960
Speaker 1: gonna run the football and they both I think we'll

120
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 1: do well there. Even though I thought Charles Cross is

121
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:36,360
Speaker 1: gifted and easy at pass protection as I've seen. I mean,

122
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 1: he is really good. And by the way, we got

123
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,560
Speaker 1: him here live at eight PM. That's gonna be a

124
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,680
Speaker 1: fun interview. Yeah, So we talk about these rookies on

125
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 1: offense and on defense, and then on defense, we got

126
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 1: a new scheme that we're gonna see. We're gonna see

127
00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:51,320
Speaker 1: a three four defense that means three down linemen, four linebackers,

128
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 1: but typically you're gonna see one of those backers walcome

129
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:55,640
Speaker 1: to the line of scream. Is what I like about

130
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,640
Speaker 1: this new look pause that it allows these outside backers

131
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,039
Speaker 1: to be dynamic. You have to have dynamic guys who

132
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,760
Speaker 1: played this three four defense on that on those outside

133
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 1: backers last year too many times the more year I

134
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:10,600
Speaker 1: saw ninety eight in the coverage, ninety something. Whenever ninety

135
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 1: something that's dropping into coverage. That's no good for football, right,

136
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 1: we don't want to see that. But with this new defense,

137
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:17,760
Speaker 1: we're gonna see Chenna the Wilsu dropping the coverage. We're

138
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 1: gonna see Darrell Taylor dropping the coverage. But we're also

139
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:21,920
Speaker 1: going to see them get after the quarterback the way

140
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 1: the league has moved to. Okay, we're gonna throw the

141
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:26,560
Speaker 1: football a lot. You gotta have guys on that second

142
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:28,920
Speaker 1: level who can do multiple things. I like where this

143
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 1: defense is going well. I liked how we just did

144
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 1: pass coverage. We weren't spot dropping like we've done in

145
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:37,200
Speaker 1: the last few years. I just don't believe that you

146
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:39,359
Speaker 1: can play that type of defense anymore. You can do

147
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 1: it on occasion, but this game is a quick game, right,

148
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,840
Speaker 1: so you better crowd things early, and so you want

149
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:47,840
Speaker 1: to make a zone look a bit like man to

150
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:51,280
Speaker 1: man where he's passing guys off a lot of pattern recognition,

151
00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:53,719
Speaker 1: and something my soft through preseason that we didn't do

152
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,560
Speaker 1: at all last year. Our achileys heel on defense the

153
00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:00,479
Speaker 1: last three or four years was play action legs and

154
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:04,719
Speaker 1: particularly deep crossing routes. Man. I mean, through the preseason,

155
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:06,760
Speaker 1: we actually knew how to play those, and we played

156
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:09,920
Speaker 1: them tight, and so that was refreshing. I'd love to

157
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:12,239
Speaker 1: us going to a three four because it is easier

158
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 1: to find guys who are six three two fifty that

159
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,920
Speaker 1: can run than guys who are six foot four, three

160
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,560
Speaker 1: hundred pounds that can come off the edge. That's those

161
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:23,560
Speaker 1: are pretty darn rare. And then as you mentioned what

162
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:27,440
Speaker 1: will be different this year is look, you can't drop

163
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 1: defensive ends in good Man and they're not they're not

164
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 1: in past defense. You know, they don't understand pattern recognition

165
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:37,040
Speaker 1: and how to look up receivers and read a quarterback.

166
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 1: Here's just there. Basically, minds would just throw a dummy

167
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,120
Speaker 1: bag out there and say, I hope you don't throw

168
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:44,640
Speaker 1: it to this. They're not put in the box. And

169
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,120
Speaker 1: so now you got Jamal Adams, who's going to play

170
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:49,800
Speaker 1: more in the box this year, I believe than last year.

171
00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:52,080
Speaker 1: We played him more in the cover two as a safety.

172
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 1: I've always said this, it's not that he can't do it.

173
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:57,800
Speaker 1: He can, It's just that's not his strength. His strength

174
00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:01,000
Speaker 1: is in run defense in the box. And the box

175
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:04,240
Speaker 1: just means around in between the tackles or around the tackles,

176
00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:07,160
Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage and coming and bringing him off

177
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 1: the edge. And so now you're gonna have two outside linebackers,

178
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:12,760
Speaker 1: You're gonna have Jamal Adams. You don't know who's gonna

179
00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:16,000
Speaker 1: come and blitch and drop into coverage. So it just

180
00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 1: gives him a lot more weapons from a schematic standpoint,

181
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,679
Speaker 1: and I think we brought some innovative coaches as well.

182
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:26,040
Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm really excited defensively what we can do,

183
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:27,960
Speaker 1: and I think we're gonna be much better offensively than

184
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:29,520
Speaker 1: people say. All right, before we break, we got to

185
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:32,360
Speaker 1: talk about this real quick. The quarterback position. Russell is gone.

186
00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:34,040
Speaker 1: He wanted out, he wants to go to Denver. You

187
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:36,640
Speaker 1: send him to Denver. You get Drew Locke to replace him.

188
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,200
Speaker 1: You also get no offense man. You get Shelby Harris right,

189
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 1: Drew Locke not here to replace him, but he was

190
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,680
Speaker 1: part of that ideal. Gino won this job. And I

191
00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:45,440
Speaker 1: think Geno won this job because when he took care

192
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:47,720
Speaker 1: of the football, he knows this system in Pete Carroll,

193
00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:50,200
Speaker 1: trust as guy Phil Badford, Drew lot because he got

194
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,319
Speaker 1: COVID when he was gonna get that start, miss five

195
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:54,679
Speaker 1: or six days. He's behind a ball, he comes out.

196
00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:57,239
Speaker 1: It seems like he forced a couple passes through some interceptions.

197
00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 1: Just didn't look good. Did you expect anyone other than

198
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 1: Geno Smith to be the guy? Did you think maybe

199
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 1: Drew lock had a chance to win this? Well, when

200
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:07,600
Speaker 1: I saw the mock game and that we did before preseason,

201
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:12,120
Speaker 1: Drew Locke impressed me. He was one. He's tall, he's

202
00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 1: six foot four. He could see over linean he had

203
00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,560
Speaker 1: some nice checkdowns. He worked all sides of the field.

204
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:20,520
Speaker 1: He worked the left side, crossing routes, checkdowns, hit the

205
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:23,720
Speaker 1: middle as well on some deep passes. So to me, look,

206
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,160
Speaker 1: he's got this skill level. I mean, he can flat

207
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:29,960
Speaker 1: out spend the football. It's just that it's the critical

208
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,959
Speaker 1: decision making that he's got to get better at. And

209
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:36,080
Speaker 1: I think, well, I know, look, Pete believes we can

210
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 1: win with defense, running the football, and we're gonna be

211
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,440
Speaker 1: good on both of those, and having a quarterback that

212
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:44,520
Speaker 1: you know, takes what the defense gives them, don't don't

213
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,720
Speaker 1: take sacks. I mean Russell again, God bless him, love him.

214
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 1: You know, he led the league Darnier every year in sacks.

215
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:52,199
Speaker 1: You can't tell me the offensive line was a worse

216
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:54,600
Speaker 1: in the league every single year. It's just not the case.

217
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 1: And we're gonna find out Monday very quickly, real quick.

218
00:09:57,679 --> 00:09:59,680
Speaker 1: Is it was it the offensive line or was it

219
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:02,240
Speaker 1: rough So on the sacks, I think, you know, Russell

220
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:04,600
Speaker 1: was probably about half of that, and so we're not

221
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:06,160
Speaker 1: going to be in as bad as situations. I don't

222
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,120
Speaker 1: think we're gonna come up second to seventeen, third and

223
00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:10,880
Speaker 1: fourteen at the same time. If we do get in

224
00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 1: those situations, Russell had, he had a way of getting

225
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:17,040
Speaker 1: getting through that he can make the big play. So

226
00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:20,400
Speaker 1: it's gonna look different because we're gonna be more manageable situations,

227
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:22,679
Speaker 1: which I think Geno is more than capable of handling.

228
00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:24,240
Speaker 1: You know, well, that's the great thing. We will see

229
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 1: real soon Paul Moyer on Monday. But when we return,

230
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,120
Speaker 1: we'll get a pony preview from Kylin Newman from the

231
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:33,160
Speaker 1: Denver Post. That's right here on Hawks Live. Kyle Newman, Kyle,

232
00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:36,080
Speaker 1: we'll up. Man. How are you doing? Hey, I'm doing great, guys.

233
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:39,520
Speaker 1: Thanks for having me on. Appreciate it. Hey, thanks for

234
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:41,439
Speaker 1: for being on with us. Man. First question I have

235
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:44,240
Speaker 1: for you. When Denver found out that this trade was

236
00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:46,760
Speaker 1: going through and you were gonna have Russell Wilson, what

237
00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:50,840
Speaker 1: was the vibe like over there in Colorado? Oh, hysteria,

238
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:55,120
Speaker 1: mania mayhem. I mean, guys, it's been six long years

239
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:58,280
Speaker 1: in Super Bowl, fifty six years of not going the playoffs,

240
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:01,839
Speaker 1: five losing season in that time frame. You know, the

241
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 1: Vic Fangio era not kind to Broncos country around here,

242
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:09,160
Speaker 1: with three straight seasons out of the playoffs and the

243
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:12,680
Speaker 1: offense struggling to score twenty points a game, will all

244
00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:15,160
Speaker 1: of a sudden, you know, one day in March, that

245
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:18,319
Speaker 1: all changes. And George Peyton, of course, he's been wheeling

246
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:22,440
Speaker 1: and dealing since twenty twenty early twenty twenty one as

247
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,520
Speaker 1: the Broncos GM. You know, he brings in Nathaniel Hackett.

248
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:29,600
Speaker 1: Now now Broncos got Russell Wilson, and it's a it's

249
00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:32,600
Speaker 1: a reset expectations out here, guys. I mean, it went

250
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:34,920
Speaker 1: from the last few years of hey, maybe they can

251
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:38,560
Speaker 1: possibly scrap something together to this team should make the

252
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:40,559
Speaker 1: playoffs and this team should make a deep run in

253
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:44,319
Speaker 1: the playoffs. That's the expectation around here. And as we're

254
00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:47,880
Speaker 1: going into you know, week one, it's highly anticipated homecoming

255
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:51,720
Speaker 1: for Rust in Seattle, expectations are even higher. It seems

256
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:54,959
Speaker 1: like around Doug Valley, well, that's awesome, guys, have high

257
00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 1: expectations in Russell hit the ground running. What I really

258
00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:01,679
Speaker 1: want to know is has less Rant has I cut Colorado?

259
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 1: What's up with that? You know, I think Broncos fans

260
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:08,959
Speaker 1: are smart enough to know it's it's his latest catchphrase.

261
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:11,320
Speaker 1: You know, it's the Denver version of go Hawks, right,

262
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 1: but uh yeah, I think it's kind of catching on now.

263
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:16,520
Speaker 1: Of course, I haven't lost the game, haven't gone through

264
00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:19,680
Speaker 1: any university yet, so it's still all teaches and cream

265
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 1: with this new coaching staff with Russ, and you know,

266
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:26,000
Speaker 1: I think obviously Russ for Russ is kind of persona

267
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:28,960
Speaker 1: and especially as persona at the podium, his kind of

268
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:31,960
Speaker 1: coach speak, if you will. I know that rubs people

269
00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:34,440
Speaker 1: the wrong lay a little bit up there in Seattle,

270
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,400
Speaker 1: but it's not it's not rubbing anybody wrong quite yet

271
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 1: down here in Denver, seeing as you know, they're they're welcoming,

272
00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:43,280
Speaker 1: welcoming a Hall of Fame talent after you know, last

273
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,679
Speaker 1: year at this time it was who's going to win

274
00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 1: the job? Drew Locker, Teddy Bridgewater and now they got

275
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:51,720
Speaker 1: probably a future Hall of Famer helmet things and on

276
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:54,600
Speaker 1: a long term deal here uh in Denver. A few

277
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 1: twenty twenty eight, George Peyton's latest and greatest move. We'll

278
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 1: see how great it is the life of the contract.

279
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:04,640
Speaker 1: But certainly those within doub Valley are pretty hyped. Matt

280
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:07,120
Speaker 1: deal got done well I don't want to make this

281
00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:10,120
Speaker 1: all about Russell, but it's it's obviously big news, and

282
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:11,600
Speaker 1: you know, for them to set it up for the

283
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:15,000
Speaker 1: first game on Monday night, it's going to be pretty electric.

284
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 1: And hey, look, we had a great ten year run

285
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,640
Speaker 1: with him, and there's been some rumors that, you know,

286
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:22,760
Speaker 1: the Seahawks maybe hit some of his skill had diminished

287
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:25,320
Speaker 1: that I think it has to do more with the

288
00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:27,920
Speaker 1: Seahawks felt there was a way to win, and Russell

289
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:30,440
Speaker 1: felt there was another way to win. So with that

290
00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:33,000
Speaker 1: being said, what I've heard some rumors that there's a

291
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:36,240
Speaker 1: different player coach relationship between Hackett and Wilson, and some

292
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:38,760
Speaker 1: of references as more of a partnership rather than a

293
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:43,679
Speaker 1: coach player. What's your take on that? What have you heard? Yeah?

294
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,200
Speaker 1: I think you hit it right there and on the head.

295
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:49,720
Speaker 1: I mean in Seattle, Russ and Pete Carroll obviously had

296
00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:53,200
Speaker 1: different ideas of how the offense should be run, and

297
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:56,880
Speaker 1: Carroll wanting it rooted in the run identity and rust

298
00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:58,679
Speaker 1: being like, no, put the ball in my hand. So

299
00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:01,920
Speaker 1: I think out here in Denver that's basically the relationship

300
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:05,880
Speaker 1: that Russ and Nate Hackett have cultivated here. In the

301
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,319
Speaker 1: short time they've been together, it's it's pretty clear that

302
00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:11,920
Speaker 1: Nathaniel Hackett awesome to a coordinator. Justin outon they're really

303
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:14,840
Speaker 1: going to put the game plan in Russ's hand. They're

304
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:16,840
Speaker 1: gonna let him, you know, be in charge of a

305
00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:19,200
Speaker 1: lot of things. They're gonna be okay with him going

306
00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:22,600
Speaker 1: off script and rolling out. And you know, he saw it.

307
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 1: Even though some of these rosters decisions they made at

308
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:27,760
Speaker 1: the back end of their right receiver room. They had

309
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 1: a lot of competitions for that final spot. But Jalen Virgil,

310
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,480
Speaker 1: an undrafted guy out of Appalachian State, made the team

311
00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,400
Speaker 1: and made the team largely because of his wheels. He's

312
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:39,800
Speaker 1: a really fast guy, just like kJ Hammler. He can

313
00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:43,520
Speaker 1: take the top off the defense. And Nate Nathaniel Hackett

314
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:45,160
Speaker 1: pretty much set it straight up. He said, hey, you know,

315
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:47,520
Speaker 1: Russell wanted some more speed on that white Out four

316
00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:50,440
Speaker 1: and more speedy gets. So I think we're already seeing

317
00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 1: signs of it being a different kind of relationship between

318
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:58,400
Speaker 1: Russ and Hackett than Russ and Pete Carroll. And of course,

319
00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:01,200
Speaker 1: you know, as you guys mentioned, ESPN story came out

320
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:04,320
Speaker 1: this week about you know the quote unquote drama that

321
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:07,920
Speaker 1: led up to the trade in March, and Russell Wilson

322
00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,320
Speaker 1: addressed that today in Doug Valley. You know, he pretty

323
00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:12,880
Speaker 1: much took the high road, but he said, yeah, there

324
00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 1: were a couple of times that the Seahawks described to

325
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:18,520
Speaker 1: trade me, including in twenty eighteen right around the draft

326
00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:23,040
Speaker 1: to Cleveland. So you know, this is obviously a relationship

327
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:26,000
Speaker 1: that was on the Rocks before the trade. Russell finds

328
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:28,000
Speaker 1: himself and he's you can tell he's a little re

329
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:33,040
Speaker 1: reinvigorated and a little redetermined to hear especially after in

330
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 1: that story. You know, the Seahawks front office three anonymity

331
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:39,800
Speaker 1: basically say hey, we think this guy is a quarterback

332
00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:44,240
Speaker 1: in decline, Russell Wilson out to prove that. Otherwise he'd say, hey, said, hey,

333
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:46,880
Speaker 1: my first ten years were pretty good, but I still

334
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:48,840
Speaker 1: got a lot left to prove. And you could sense

335
00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:51,080
Speaker 1: that kind of that fire from him today on the

336
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:55,000
Speaker 1: podium at Douve Valley. You know, you guys have where

337
00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:57,080
Speaker 1: they had a heck of a running game last year.

338
00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:00,720
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, Javonte Williams, Melvin Gore, you know both,

339
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:03,240
Speaker 1: you know very you know both over nine hundred yards.

340
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:06,000
Speaker 1: What do you what is this offense is going to

341
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:07,640
Speaker 1: look like. I mean we didn't get to see anything

342
00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:10,880
Speaker 1: in preseason they talked about they want to run it, um,

343
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:13,640
Speaker 1: how about they want to play action it take some

344
00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 1: shots downfield. Be honest, that sounds very similar what the

345
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:18,760
Speaker 1: Seahawks have said for the last ten years. What do

346
00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 1: you see denferent about this ofference that Russell may transition

347
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:25,840
Speaker 1: to from what he was here at Seattle. Yeah, I

348
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:28,680
Speaker 1: mean that's an interesting point, right because he part of

349
00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:32,040
Speaker 1: the reason he wasn't happy in Seattle rust was because,

350
00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:34,320
Speaker 1: like I mentioned, you know, if Pete Carroll wants to

351
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:36,520
Speaker 1: run the rock and establish the I didn't be around

352
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 1: running the football. Well he comes to a franchise Russell does.

353
00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 1: Where the Denver Broncos their best seasons, they their identity

354
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:45,560
Speaker 1: has been running the football. I mean even in the

355
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:48,560
Speaker 1: John Elways Super Bowl years, you had Torell Davis really

356
00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:51,720
Speaker 1: setting the tone up front with Tom Nail and Marshayer,

357
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:54,400
Speaker 1: like all those guys, all those Hogmalli's up front. Well,

358
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:57,360
Speaker 1: now coming to Denver kind of the same thing. You know,

359
00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:00,720
Speaker 1: Javonte Williams and Melvin Gordon both over nine yards last year,

360
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:04,000
Speaker 1: as you mentioned, they split carried basically right down the middle.

361
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:06,440
Speaker 1: That's not going to be the case this year. Javanta

362
00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:09,439
Speaker 1: Williams will be the bell cow, Melvin Gordon kind of

363
00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:13,000
Speaker 1: that third down back, featured back role coming in to

364
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:16,160
Speaker 1: spell Williams when when necessary, and then they got Mike

365
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:19,360
Speaker 1: Bloom the third stringer behind those two. So I expect

366
00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:23,000
Speaker 1: the Broncos to continue to you know, run the football

367
00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:25,680
Speaker 1: and establish the run, and it's it's not going to

368
00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:28,639
Speaker 1: be airing it out completely, especially I think at the

369
00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:31,560
Speaker 1: beginning of the season as their china still find their

370
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:36,040
Speaker 1: offensive identity and rhythm, especially considering no starters basically played

371
00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:39,919
Speaker 1: in the preseason. So I'll be interested to see how

372
00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:42,600
Speaker 1: that balance works here for through these first few games,

373
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:45,439
Speaker 1: the run pass, balance of play action. But one thing

374
00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:48,480
Speaker 1: for certain, Javante Williams is the dude this year in

375
00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:52,080
Speaker 1: the backfield. I'd be very surprised. I'd quite frankly be

376
00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:54,120
Speaker 1: shocked if he didn't go over the thousand yard mark

377
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:56,800
Speaker 1: and a second season in Denver. We're talking to Colin

378
00:17:56,840 --> 00:18:00,600
Speaker 1: Newman from the Denver Pauls. Cowman. With all the expectation

379
00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:02,920
Speaker 1: with his offense were Russell coming over. You cannot forget

380
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:04,920
Speaker 1: that this is there is a really good defense over

381
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,840
Speaker 1: there to start this Monday night football game. Do you

382
00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:10,280
Speaker 1: expect the defense set the tone or do you expect

383
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:12,520
Speaker 1: them say the coaches say, look, Russell, you got the

384
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:14,520
Speaker 1: keys to the carlist open this thing up and see

385
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:17,920
Speaker 1: what happens. I think a little bit of both. I mean,

386
00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 1: but you're right, man. Like this Broncos defense, especially with

387
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:24,040
Speaker 1: Russell come into town and all the mania that he brings,

388
00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:26,760
Speaker 1: I think they're a little underrated. I mean, you look

389
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:29,520
Speaker 1: at what they did in Dick Fangio's tenure. It was

390
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:32,199
Speaker 1: pretty good. It was pretty decent. Especially last year they

391
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,400
Speaker 1: ranked third in the NFL and points allowed for games.

392
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:38,000
Speaker 1: So you got a lot of pieces coming back from

393
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:41,399
Speaker 1: that defense, like Justin Simmons, like Kareem Jackson anchor in

394
00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:44,600
Speaker 1: the back end at the safety positions. But you also

395
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:47,600
Speaker 1: got some new pieces that George Peyton brought in, Kawan

396
00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 1: Williams new nickelback coming in from San Francisco. Also coming

397
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:55,040
Speaker 1: over to San Francisco, DJ Jones who will be should

398
00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:58,000
Speaker 1: be a force up front, and guys, I'm looking also

399
00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:01,840
Speaker 1: for Draymont Jones to break out this year, truly truly

400
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:04,879
Speaker 1: break out, and then on the edges too. You know,

401
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:07,760
Speaker 1: Randy Gregory, I'd be remiss if I didn't mention him

402
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:10,879
Speaker 1: as a huge free agent. Addition, obviously was about to

403
00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:13,680
Speaker 1: sign with the Cowboys that fell through Cayton and Co

404
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,480
Speaker 1: jumped on it. Now he's in Orange and Blue, opposite

405
00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:20,119
Speaker 1: of Bradley Chubb, and I think the Broncos hope Randy

406
00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:23,000
Speaker 1: Gregory and Bradley Chubb can be what Bradley Chubb and

407
00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:26,040
Speaker 1: Von Miller were for. They hoped for them to be,

408
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:29,520
Speaker 1: but injuries over the last few years pretty much derailed

409
00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:33,040
Speaker 1: that combo. So Randy Gregory and Bradley Chubby they've got

410
00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:35,159
Speaker 1: to make some noise. And then of course Pat or

411
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:38,240
Speaker 1: Tan he might be the Broncos best overall player outside

412
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:41,480
Speaker 1: of Wilson, I'd say, I mean, he is the real

413
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,960
Speaker 1: deal second year and they've got all pro aspirations for

414
00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 1: him in year two. He is Kyle Newman of the

415
00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:50,399
Speaker 1: Denver Post. We are appreciate actually joining this man. You

416
00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:52,679
Speaker 1: have a good night, and we'll see what I was

417
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:56,680
Speaker 1: on Monday Fellas. Thanks a lot, all right, that was

418
00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:59,000
Speaker 1: Kyle Newman. When we return, we'll talk to tight end

419
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:01,880
Speaker 1: Kolbe Parkinson. That's coming up next right here on Hawks Live.

420
00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 1: Now we are going to be joined by Seahawks tight

421
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:08,840
Speaker 1: end Colby Parkins and Colby what's up? Man? Hey, how

422
00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:11,720
Speaker 1: y'all doing? Thanks having me on? Hey, thanks for joining us. Man,

423
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:13,879
Speaker 1: We're doing well. You know. The first thing I know

424
00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:16,280
Speaker 1: is about you as you swallow, bro, you put on

425
00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:20,360
Speaker 1: some hounds. What was your off season regiment? Like, Man,

426
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:24,720
Speaker 1: tell me about the calories to workout? You change that body? Yeah,

427
00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:27,600
Speaker 1: I definitely did so. I had trained down in northern

428
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,600
Speaker 1: California with some of my buddies from Stanford. They're actually

429
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:34,040
Speaker 1: all alignment so I was doing some alignment less in

430
00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:35,680
Speaker 1: the offseason, trying to put on a little bit of

431
00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:38,399
Speaker 1: weight so I could come back ready to go for

432
00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:41,720
Speaker 1: the season. Well, it's more than just the weight. I mean,

433
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:44,640
Speaker 1: you know, it's noticeable. People are talking about it. I mean,

434
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:48,280
Speaker 1: you're cut. I mean, I'm sure your girlfriend is very

435
00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:51,399
Speaker 1: happy with the transformation that that you've created. But but

436
00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:53,800
Speaker 1: tell us more about I mean, were you working it

437
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 1: was at the Seahawks. From a nutrition standpoint, were you

438
00:20:56,840 --> 00:21:00,360
Speaker 1: eating special foods? I mean, how much should you just

439
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:03,760
Speaker 1: create calories and your diet, but give us some more

440
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:08,080
Speaker 1: specifics to that. Yeah, so I've always had a very

441
00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:10,800
Speaker 1: fast metabolism. Um, so I have to eat a lot.

442
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:13,240
Speaker 1: So my diet usually consists of anything that I can

443
00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:17,119
Speaker 1: find and eating it, and me and my buddies the

444
00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:19,960
Speaker 1: Alignment from Stamford. Uh, we with meal prep and just

445
00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:23,040
Speaker 1: anything we could find, you know, somewhat healthy food. Pretty

446
00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:26,800
Speaker 1: healthy actually, Uh, but just a lot of intake was

447
00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:30,400
Speaker 1: my my trick. And then the list who are doing

448
00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:34,000
Speaker 1: We're pretty heavy and uh, pretty volume, a lot of

449
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:35,879
Speaker 1: volume in there too, So we were we were getting

450
00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:37,960
Speaker 1: after it's a fun off season, and I got up,

451
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,000
Speaker 1: I got pretty heavy. I'm back down to about two sixty,

452
00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:41,399
Speaker 1: but at one point in the off season I was

453
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:46,240
Speaker 1: I was pushing through seventy. So I remember my my

454
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,680
Speaker 1: third year in the NFL, and I went through that

455
00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:53,600
Speaker 1: same kind of workout and I got fast, no question,

456
00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:56,200
Speaker 1: But more, I was so much more confident going into

457
00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:58,080
Speaker 1: the season because I just felt like I wasn't a

458
00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:01,479
Speaker 1: great at ship are you are you fast? And obviously

459
00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:03,639
Speaker 1: it sounds like you're more confident going into the season

460
00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:06,520
Speaker 1: because of it. Yeah, no doubt, I agree with both

461
00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:09,560
Speaker 1: of those statements. I feel like I'm the fastest I've

462
00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:12,880
Speaker 1: ever been right now, and the confidence has definitely increased

463
00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:14,800
Speaker 1: because I know I can hold my own out there

464
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:17,520
Speaker 1: being a little bit heavier, a little bit stronger, I'm

465
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:21,040
Speaker 1: you know, I feel like I'm established myself as being

466
00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:24,480
Speaker 1: able to go out there and blockwell. So the extra

467
00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,080
Speaker 1: where it has definitely helped with that. Colby. What I

468
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:29,600
Speaker 1: love about tight ends is that you guys are probably

469
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:31,840
Speaker 1: the most versatile guys out there. And I look at

470
00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:34,239
Speaker 1: the three tight ends that we expect to see. If

471
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:36,360
Speaker 1: you guys are different type of tight ends? You got

472
00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:38,440
Speaker 1: you the big guy, go up and get the rock

473
00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:40,000
Speaker 1: out the are you got uncle will dis to do

474
00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:42,040
Speaker 1: the dirty where you got no offense? Does a little

475
00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:45,400
Speaker 1: bit of everything? Does the versatility in your play match

476
00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:47,560
Speaker 1: the personalities? Are you guys different when it comes to

477
00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:52,040
Speaker 1: personalities as well? I think so we all get along great,

478
00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:54,240
Speaker 1: but we definitely bring a different dynamic to the room.

479
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:57,760
Speaker 1: No one's been a great addition, like you mentioned, and

480
00:22:57,880 --> 00:22:59,920
Speaker 1: I think our room is going to be pretty special

481
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:02,359
Speaker 1: this year. We all offer a little different things on

482
00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:04,760
Speaker 1: the field too, and I think when we're all out

483
00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:07,880
Speaker 1: there together, it can be a pretty fun a little

484
00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:10,760
Speaker 1: dynamic between us. So fun dynamic that means you can

485
00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:12,959
Speaker 1: apply pressure on no offense to grow as Stash right

486
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,520
Speaker 1: that the Titans are growing. Oh yeah, well we've been trying.

487
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:19,040
Speaker 1: We have been trying, but he's been resisting. He's buying

488
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:22,280
Speaker 1: into techno. Thursday, though, which is great. We're visiting with

489
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:26,119
Speaker 1: Kobe Parkinson, tied end for the Seattle Seahawks. Um, you

490
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:28,399
Speaker 1: don't have to give me the game plan, but do

491
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:31,280
Speaker 1: you last year, you know a lot of three wide

492
00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:36,359
Speaker 1: receiver sets. Do you expect more two tight end sets

493
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:39,240
Speaker 1: in the game. Again, you'll have to give me the

494
00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:43,920
Speaker 1: game plan, but just going into the season, yeah, I

495
00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:45,760
Speaker 1: think that, Well, we'll try to mix it up a

496
00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:48,080
Speaker 1: little bit. I think we'll be able to marry some

497
00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:49,920
Speaker 1: of the run and pass game stuff that we're doing,

498
00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:55,560
Speaker 1: and that can be eleven twelve really anything. I think

499
00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:57,880
Speaker 1: that the entire playbook is up for us this year,

500
00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:00,960
Speaker 1: and I really like what change doing so far in

501
00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:03,640
Speaker 1: camp in preseason and excited to see it play out

502
00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:07,440
Speaker 1: on Monday Night. Are the tight ends interchangeable or do

503
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:10,920
Speaker 1: they have specific game plans for each one of you?

504
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:14,880
Speaker 1: I think we all can do anything that they ask

505
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:17,200
Speaker 1: us to do. You know, obviously we have different strengths,

506
00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:19,600
Speaker 1: and like you said, well it was a better blocker,

507
00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:22,040
Speaker 1: and Noah's pretty dynamic and I kind of fit in

508
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:25,880
Speaker 1: somewhere in between. But if I don't think anyone's gonna

509
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:27,479
Speaker 1: be worried if one of us is left out there

510
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:30,080
Speaker 1: on the field for a certain play. I think we've

511
00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:32,160
Speaker 1: all proven that we can handle our own and take

512
00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:35,399
Speaker 1: our business. Colby. One of my favorite parts of training

513
00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:37,359
Speaker 1: camp are the install so you kind of get to

514
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:39,680
Speaker 1: see where you're off as a coordinator is going. When

515
00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:42,240
Speaker 1: you first saw that install where they had two tight

516
00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:44,480
Speaker 1: ends in the backfield serving as like blockers for the

517
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:46,440
Speaker 1: running back, did you get excited or were you kind

518
00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:49,280
Speaker 1: of questioning what's going on? No? I love it. I

519
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:51,879
Speaker 1: love changing things up and messing around with it. I

520
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:54,320
Speaker 1: think Change has had a great job with that, you know,

521
00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:57,640
Speaker 1: the creativity part and just trying to get any advantage

522
00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:00,320
Speaker 1: that we can. I don't know if you know this,

523
00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:06,200
Speaker 1: but Russell Wilson's coming back into town on Monday. Um, yeah,

524
00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:10,480
Speaker 1: that's our quarterback. And look it's gonna be electric on Monday.

525
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:14,800
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously Russell has been been. You know, he's

526
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:17,199
Speaker 1: been amazing for ten years, and you know you'll lose him,

527
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,600
Speaker 1: and the fans it would be interesting to see the reaction.

528
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:23,560
Speaker 1: But is it just another opening Monday night game? And

529
00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:26,040
Speaker 1: how you guys handling a bit of that distraction with

530
00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:29,879
Speaker 1: Russell coming back into town. Yeah, obviously the fans are

531
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:31,560
Speaker 1: gonna be pumped up. I think the stadium is gonna

532
00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:34,320
Speaker 1: be absolutely electric. Like he said, it's gonna be pretty

533
00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:37,120
Speaker 1: fun to play. But to us, it's just another game.

534
00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:39,399
Speaker 1: You know, Pete always talks about every single week is

535
00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:43,800
Speaker 1: a championship week, and every single game is championship game, um,

536
00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:46,639
Speaker 1: And it doesn't matter who we're playing. They'll obviously be

537
00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:50,240
Speaker 1: a little extra um talk throughout the week because we're

538
00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:53,320
Speaker 1: playing routs and whatnot, But to us, it doesn't doesn't

539
00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:56,159
Speaker 1: change anything. We're going to prepare like we're going out

540
00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:58,840
Speaker 1: there to win a Super Bowl. Colbe Obviously a lot

541
00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:01,160
Speaker 1: of talk has been about Russell Wilson, But what about

542
00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:04,080
Speaker 1: your quarterback, Geno Smith. He's gonna be understanding for you guys.

543
00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:06,040
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously on the outside looking in, we get

544
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:07,639
Speaker 1: to see what he brings to the table. Tell us

545
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:11,440
Speaker 1: something about Gina, we might not know something you might

546
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:16,560
Speaker 1: not know about Geno. I don't know if there's anything

547
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:18,960
Speaker 1: that you might not know, But what I definitely know

548
00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:21,119
Speaker 1: about him is that he's he's a stud. I mean,

549
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:24,680
Speaker 1: he's definitely taking taking the reins and done a great

550
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:26,679
Speaker 1: job with it. And you guys saw it last year

551
00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:28,760
Speaker 1: when he stopped him when we ust got hurt. I

552
00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:30,600
Speaker 1: thought he did a great job. I thought we definitely

553
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:32,200
Speaker 1: could have won with him. There's just a few things

554
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:34,560
Speaker 1: that didn't go our way, and I'm excited for him

555
00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:36,639
Speaker 1: this year. I think this is a great opportunity for him,

556
00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:39,480
Speaker 1: a great opportunity for us to rally around him and

557
00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:42,720
Speaker 1: show what we are as an offense. I'm gonna ask

558
00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:45,240
Speaker 1: a little bit because we've been talking about Russell, what

559
00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:48,359
Speaker 1: is I mean, it's been tough because nobody plays really

560
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:52,200
Speaker 1: you know, the starters during preseason anymore, so you don't

561
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:54,560
Speaker 1: really know. They got a new coach and staff. But

562
00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:56,720
Speaker 1: just tell us a little bit about their defense, you

563
00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:58,960
Speaker 1: know what, what kind of problems do they possess for

564
00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:02,240
Speaker 1: you guys. Yeah, I mean they've run a very similar

565
00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:05,520
Speaker 1: structure to what we ran here actually with the Bangio

566
00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:11,280
Speaker 1: descent so we've been going against our guys obviously all camp,

567
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:13,880
Speaker 1: and I haven't been able to get a full tell

568
00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:17,000
Speaker 1: on their personnel because of preseason, like you said, But

569
00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:19,560
Speaker 1: structure wise, I think we're gonna be very comfortable out

570
00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:21,480
Speaker 1: there and I can anticipate a lot of the things

571
00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,639
Speaker 1: that they're going to do, and we're looking forward to

572
00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:27,480
Speaker 1: going out there and taking advantage of that since we've

573
00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:32,040
Speaker 1: been going against that Paul Camp in preseason. Colby, this

574
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:36,520
Speaker 1: is Shane Waldron's second year as the offensive coordinator. Do

575
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:39,359
Speaker 1: you kind of see where this office is going, like

576
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:41,280
Speaker 1: the bigger picture at the end of the day, where

577
00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:43,280
Speaker 1: Shane wants to take this office and do you like

578
00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:48,520
Speaker 1: where it's heavy? Oh? Absolutely, I'm fully believing Shane is

579
00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:52,040
Speaker 1: a play caller and from a scheam standpoint as well,

580
00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:56,960
Speaker 1: and looking forward to really getting year two running and

581
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:00,600
Speaker 1: see where we can take it. I think that there's

582
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:04,520
Speaker 1: uh a lot of opportunities for us to tools that

583
00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:06,520
Speaker 1: we are a lot ter than what we showed last year,

584
00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:10,600
Speaker 1: and I think he's the right guy to lead us. Yeah,

585
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:13,159
Speaker 1: it's gonna be It's gonna be fun Sunday or Monday

586
00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:16,600
Speaker 1: because it's so so many young guys out there, We're

587
00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:18,920
Speaker 1: not sure what to expect yet. So I'm gonna take

588
00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:22,600
Speaker 1: you away from football. Um look your Stanford kid, Uh,

589

Speaker 1: my good friend Dave Wyman. Stanford guys. Stanford guys are

590
00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:29,800
Speaker 1: always a little different at times to me. I'm teasing

00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:33,119
Speaker 1: smart guys. But you're Northwest. Now, what do you like

592
00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:36,760
Speaker 1: to do away from football? What keeps you busy? Yeah?

593
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 1: I've been loving living up here. I've always been an

594
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:45,240
Speaker 1: outdoors type of guy. So the hikes around here, the views,

595
00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:48,680
Speaker 1: the just the scenery that you get from. Obviously the

596
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:52,560
Speaker 1: range tough, but the greenery that it produces is pretty amazing.

597
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:55,280
Speaker 1: So blessed to live in such a beautiful place. And

Speaker 1: set that's really unique. Anyways, you can't teach hip. He

611
00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:36,480
Speaker 1: watched him run um. I think it's just a matter

612
00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:39,120
Speaker 1: of giving him that opportunity, that that confidence. But he

613
00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:41,880
Speaker 1: is my guy that I go. He could be a

614
00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:44,520
Speaker 1: deference maker for us. All you heard to hear Paul Moyer, Yeah,

00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:39,120
Speaker 1: font up a little bit. All right, Well, hey, let's

634
00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:41,360
Speaker 1: go around the NFL Mayer. Okay, we got Thursday night

635
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:45,640
Speaker 1: football going down. The Buffalo Bills are beating up an

636
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:47,920
Speaker 1: on the rams right now. Pull up your screen because

637
00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:51,960
Speaker 1: my screen isn't working right now. The thirty one to ten,

638
00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:54,880
Speaker 1: thirty one to ten, The Bills are beating up on

639
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:58,520
Speaker 1: the rams. The Bill's defense has been the highlight, right,

640
00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:01,320
Speaker 1: and we're standing on I'm gonna stand the Bills defense, right,

641
00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:03,560
Speaker 1: that's been the highlights so far. Coming into this season.

642
00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:07,520
Speaker 1: People are talking about Josh Allen MVP candidate. They were

643
00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:10,160
Speaker 1: talking about this Bill's defense. They're saying, look, I've seen

644
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:13,120
Speaker 1: many people pick these guys to win the Super Bowl

645
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:15,720
Speaker 1: this year, and the only team that I saw that

646
00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:18,200
Speaker 1: might be able to beat them, Honestly, preseason wise, I'm

647
00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:20,120
Speaker 1: looking at the Rams and saying, Okay, these guys have

648
00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:23,720
Speaker 1: enough talent they could they could repeat hasn't happened in

649
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:25,560
Speaker 1: fifteen years. I believe the New England Pages were the

650
00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:28,719
Speaker 1: last ones to do. It ain't looking so good so far,

651
00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 1: you know, part of me it's it's um. I don't

652
00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:37,240
Speaker 1: know if it's a perception. There's a talk about this

653
00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:39,640
Speaker 1: book a lot cup blink and it's just something you

654
00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:42,960
Speaker 1: just you see something you trust your instincts. It was

655
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:45,960
Speaker 1: the way they celebrated their Super Bowl win, and it

656
00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:49,360
Speaker 1: just the way they came into the season. They were

657
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:53,160
Speaker 1: kiddy about winning the Super Bowl. It wasn't a bond

658
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:56,400
Speaker 1: of blood, sweat and cheers and what we've accomplished and

659
00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:59,200
Speaker 1: all the hard workers almost like they went to Disneyland. Okay,

660
00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:01,440
Speaker 1: and I just got I don't know if that's repeatable.

661
00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:04,040
Speaker 1: You didn't seen a passion, No, I didn't. And look,

662
00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:08,160
Speaker 1: they brought Bobby Wagner in. We love Bobby. I go.

663
00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:11,120
Speaker 1: I just I wanted to see how that would play out.

664
00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:14,240
Speaker 1: I didn't watch the whole game, you know, but you

665
00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:17,680
Speaker 1: know he's leading in tackles again. But they've given up

666
00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:20,720
Speaker 1: thirty one points. So far, they've given up four hundred

667
00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:24,200
Speaker 1: yards of offense and we're still got nine minutes left

668
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:26,880
Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter. Offensively, they've been held to one

669
00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:31,600
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty six yards. Look, it's tough to repeat

670
00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:34,480
Speaker 1: in that emotion. You know, they may struggle at the

671
00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 1: beginning of the year. They have the talent to get

672
00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:40,560
Speaker 1: it back. But this is an awesome start for the Seahawks.

673
00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 1: All right. So now let's focus on the NFC West specifically.

674
00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:46,000
Speaker 1: Now you got obviously we talked about the Rams. See

675
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,680
Speaker 1: if they can repeat something's going on in the Bay

676
00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:51,040
Speaker 1: Area them forty nine is right, Trey Lands is the

677
00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:54,760
Speaker 1: starting quarterback. Now, they tried to ship off Jimmy Garoppolo there,

678
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:56,440
Speaker 1: and I look, twenty five million dollars a year. I

679
00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:58,160
Speaker 1: ain't taking that. No one's taken us. And they go,

680
00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:00,280
Speaker 1: look all right, Jimmy, come back, all right to pay

681
00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:02,000
Speaker 1: you six million dollars a year. You can be our

682
00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:04,200
Speaker 1: number two. What I think they're doing palm where they're

683
00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:07,160
Speaker 1: gonna wait until halfway through the season, Guys get hurt,

684
00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:09,360
Speaker 1: guys get banged up, and then they're gonna use them

685
00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:11,200
Speaker 1: for tray Bay. But it's kind of weird to have

686
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:13,719
Speaker 1: Jimmy just hanging around, you know, even had I'm practicing

687
00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:15,680
Speaker 1: on a different field at one point than Trey Lance.

688
00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:17,480
Speaker 1: They wouldn't even him near the guy, but he's on

689
00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:20,400
Speaker 1: the squad. Well, the rumors is Trey wasn't real happy

690
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:23,720
Speaker 1: that Garoppolo came back. Would you be, well, if I

691
00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:26,280
Speaker 1: was confident in myself and I believe that was truly

692
00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:29,120
Speaker 1: the number one okay, I'd be fine with it if

693
00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:32,240
Speaker 1: I had a great relationship with him. Um, And again

694
00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:36,000
Speaker 1: those are rumors, right's hearsay along the way, they brought

695
00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:39,720
Speaker 1: Garoppolo back because they don't trust Lance yet, and they said, here,

696
00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:42,680
Speaker 1: here's the deal, and now what I played for seven million? No,

697
00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:48,800
Speaker 1: but that's me, M yeah, you yeah, I'd play for

698
00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:53,200
Speaker 1: to play for a mill um. This is why, again,

699
00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:56,760
Speaker 1: the NFC West is still wide open to me. The Rams,

700
00:33:57,040 --> 00:33:59,640
Speaker 1: it's hard to repeat, you know, emotionally, it's just hard.

701
00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:03,920
Speaker 1: They've gotten older. Um, they're not deep because their salary cap,

702
00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:06,120
Speaker 1: so any of their starters to get injured, I mean,

703
00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:08,359
Speaker 1: I think they've got an issue. I mean they're left

704
00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:11,040
Speaker 1: tackles struggle tonight. Um, you know, we know they got

705
00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:13,479
Speaker 1: Aaron Donald, who's amazing. And they got Cooper Cup Who's

706
00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:16,480
Speaker 1: who's the best receiver in the league. You brought that

707
00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:18,480
Speaker 1: up a couple of years ago ahead of everybody, like,

708
00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:22,080
Speaker 1: but now you've got the forty nine ers who have talent.

709
00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:23,879
Speaker 1: I mean they have town, they got a running game,

710
00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:26,760
Speaker 1: they got unique wide receivers, they got a great defense.

711
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:29,280
Speaker 1: But they're in the same boat as So think about

712
00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:33,040
Speaker 1: this for a minute. If we had Trey Lance with

713
00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:36,960
Speaker 1: the Seahawks be thought of as a Super Bowl contender. No,

714
00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:41,160
Speaker 1: I don't think that is weird to me because they're proven,

715
00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:44,320
Speaker 1: proven that work, proven on defense, they proven, they have

716
00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:46,759
Speaker 1: an offensive scheme that works. That's fair, and I feel

717
00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:50,880
Speaker 1: like that offensive scheme fits a more mobile quarterback like

718
00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:55,600
Speaker 1: Trey Lance. Their their coach, Shanahan, is under five hundred

719
00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:58,719
Speaker 1: as a head coach with the forty nine ers, they've

720
00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:01,440
Speaker 1: had one year. I don't know, man, I'm just not

721
00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:03,920
Speaker 1: at a couple that a couple. The last two stands

722
00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:08,040
Speaker 1: okay um and in Arizona, we know Arizona, I mean Arizona.

723
00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:11,000
Speaker 1: I don't know. Arizona could go sixteen and one or

724
00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:14,040
Speaker 1: they could go six and eleven. You know, so I

725
00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:15,600
Speaker 1: just think it's all over the board. I think of

726
00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:17,480
Speaker 1: the Hawks can just stay in it early because I

727
00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:19,279
Speaker 1: think it's gonna be a battle at the beginning just

728
00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:21,960
Speaker 1: to get this team and rolling. Um. The schedule is tough.

729
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:24,520
Speaker 1: We play the AFC West, NFC West Man, it's a

730
00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:26,840
Speaker 1: tough schedule, but I just I don't know. I just

731
00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:28,520
Speaker 1: think we're gonna be better than people saying, all right,

732
00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:31,239
Speaker 1: let's go outside the NFC West. Now the matchup I'm

733
00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:33,680
Speaker 1: looking forward to watching the most other than, of course,

734
00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:37,080
Speaker 1: the Monday night football showdown would have to be. To me,

735
00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:40,239
Speaker 1: the Browns versus Panthers. I'm all about drama. I'm all

736
00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:42,320
Speaker 1: about the drama. Man's drama. You know you got you

737
00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:44,920
Speaker 1: got Baker Mayfield coming back. He had a quote that slipped.

738
00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:47,800
Speaker 1: He said he's gonna do something in particular to his

739
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:51,400
Speaker 1: former team, and uh, I just like the drama. Deshaun

740
00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:54,040
Speaker 1: wat and you know what's Jacoby gonna look like? What's

741
00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:55,480
Speaker 1: that offense is gonna look like? You still got Nick

742
00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:58,080
Speaker 1: Chubb over there. You look at the Panthers in their offense,

743
00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:01,440
Speaker 1: they got DJ Moore, Chris McCaffrey having seen issues. If

744
00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:03,719
Speaker 1: you picked him on your fantasy team. Good luck hold

745
00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:06,040
Speaker 1: on to him. He's been off for for a little bit.

746
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:08,160
Speaker 1: I just like the drama, and I really want to

747
00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:12,920
Speaker 1: see Ken Baker Mayfield goals somewhere else and produce. Yeah,

748
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:16,080
Speaker 1: two lousy organizations playing against each other in the opener,

749
00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:19,040
Speaker 1: But I agree it is a good drama. It's kind

750
00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:21,640
Speaker 1: of like Russell Wilson coming back. The one thing about

751
00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:24,640
Speaker 1: the NFL and they know how to create a sphere

752
00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:27,319
Speaker 1: Man's there's that's there's nothing like it out there. That's

753
00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:30,120
Speaker 1: why they dominate in ratings and everybody can't wait for

754
00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:33,680
Speaker 1: football to come back. Um. Yeah, I think it's just

755
00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:35,879
Speaker 1: a wide open year. I mean Tampa Bay, we don't

756
00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:37,319
Speaker 1: know what's going to go on there. I mean tom

757
00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:40,600
Speaker 1: Brady's miss camp. I mean, who knows what's that? Whole

758
00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:43,319
Speaker 1: situation is that they're older as well. I mean they

759
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:45,520
Speaker 1: lose Gronk. I think defensive way, they still have a

760
00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:48,359
Speaker 1: pretty good nucleus and with Tom Brady, you never count

761
00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:51,800
Speaker 1: that out. But you just look at the NFC. NFC

762
00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:53,680
Speaker 1: right now, I mean Tampa Bay to me is a

763
00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:56,760
Speaker 1: question mark. We're looking at the Rams just getting annihilated

764
00:36:56,920 --> 00:37:01,319
Speaker 1: at home. I mean that's that's has something to me. Yeah. Right,

765
00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:04,000
Speaker 1: And again the rest of the West that I talked about,

766
00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:06,000
Speaker 1: I don't think there's just a major player out there.

767
00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:08,680
Speaker 1: And that's why I think this this here's gonna be

768
00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:11,320
Speaker 1: so much fun to watch. It's gonna be fun. Another

769
00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:14,120
Speaker 1: matchup I'm looking at right now, Moyer, which one Raiders

770
00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:17,359
Speaker 1: verse the Chargers. That's gonna be a goal. I want

771
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:20,759
Speaker 1: to see Davanta Adams in this offense. You got Darren

772
00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:22,720
Speaker 1: Wallen over there at tight end. You got Hunter Rifral

773
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:25,040
Speaker 1: in the slot down there, you got Josh Jacobs in

774
00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:27,919
Speaker 1: the backfield. I mean, you look at the Raiders on paper,

775
00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:30,279
Speaker 1: they look like one of the most explosive offenses in

776
00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:33,359
Speaker 1: the league. Well, we'll find out, you know, you think

777
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:36,680
Speaker 1: of three examples here, we'll find out. Is it Davante

778
00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:40,560
Speaker 1: Adams or was it Aaron Rodgers? All Right, And I look,

779
00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:43,319
Speaker 1: I think Davanta Adams is amazing. But you're gonna find

780
00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:47,319
Speaker 1: you can be amazing with an amazing quarterback. You can

781
00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:50,080
Speaker 1: be just really good when you don't. I look, I

782
00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:53,040
Speaker 1: think car is very good as well. Aaron Rodgers. It's

783
00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:56,239
Speaker 1: another stratosphere. I think about when Tom Brady left. Was

784
00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:58,840
Speaker 1: it Tom or was it Belichick? I guess what it was.

785
00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:01,280
Speaker 1: It was Tom, And now we're gonna find out. Monday

786
00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:04,560
Speaker 1: night was it the offer to line all the sacks

787
00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:08,120
Speaker 1: was a Russell Wilson And uh, we're gonna find out.

788
00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:09,960
Speaker 1: I'm not even gonna comment on it. Lots of questions

789
00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:12,200
Speaker 1: will be answered. And when we return, we'll be joined

790
00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:14,839
Speaker 1: by the number nine pick in the draft this year,

791
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:18,239
Speaker 1: Charles Cross. That's next right here on Hawks Live. Now

792
00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:21,120
Speaker 1: we are joined by the number nine pick and all

793
00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:23,120
Speaker 1: the land Charles Cross, give it up one time for

794
00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:28,840
Speaker 1: Charles Cross. Charles may So. The first thing I asked you,

795
00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:30,680
Speaker 1: I go, you live around here? He goes, yeah, I

796
00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:33,120
Speaker 1: walked over after Monday night. You're gonna be able to

797
00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:36,160
Speaker 1: walk nowhere. Man, You're gonna you're gonna gonna make a

798
00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:38,440
Speaker 1: name for yourself. How excited are you to get out

799
00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:40,840
Speaker 1: there and just play some ball? Man, I'm very excited.

800
00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:43,400
Speaker 1: On the first game of the season. Oh, I'm just

801
00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:46,120
Speaker 1: ready to go out there and play. Is it gonna

802
00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:48,799
Speaker 1: be weird? I mean, look, you guys had one preseason

803
00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:50,799
Speaker 1: game here, and I don't know how much you guys

804
00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:53,239
Speaker 1: have talked about it, and we had Kobe Parkinson on

805
00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:54,920
Speaker 1: earlier and said, I didn't know even know if you know,

806
00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:58,640
Speaker 1: but Russell Wilson's coming back into town. It is gonna

807
00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:01,239
Speaker 1: be electric, you know, and it might even be loud

808
00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:03,080
Speaker 1: when you guys are on the offense that they kind

809
00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:06,439
Speaker 1: of prepared you for the noise even in your home stadium. Yeah,

810
00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:09,239
Speaker 1: I definitely feel like we're prepared for that. Um, I'm

811
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:11,680
Speaker 1: just gonna take it all in being a moment and

812
00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:14,239
Speaker 1: just take it to play by playing man he played

813
00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:17,240
Speaker 1: in the SEC. Well, you know they got eighty ninety

814
00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:20,760
Speaker 1: thousand every game. Remember we had Paul Allen designed the stadium,

815
00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:24,560
Speaker 1: so it reverberates the pretty good noise there. So what's

816
00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:26,880
Speaker 1: your What was training camp like for you? Because you know,

817
00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:29,880
Speaker 1: in college you get after it in camp, you know

818
00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:31,400
Speaker 1: what I mean. In the league it's a bit different.

819
00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:33,880
Speaker 1: Was it refreshing that you want to do more? What

820
00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:36,560
Speaker 1: was the whole feeling training camp? Oh? The training camp

821
00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:39,000
Speaker 1: field were pretty good. Just coming in there day just

822
00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:41,880
Speaker 1: trying to get better and better improve my technique, um,

823
00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:44,480
Speaker 1: just to find myself as a player. Was there anybody

824
00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:47,839
Speaker 1: that you kind of gravitated towards when you first got

825
00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:50,359
Speaker 1: there were all the rookies like kind of together during

826
00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:52,279
Speaker 1: Rickie Camp, and then once the Vets came in you

827
00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:54,160
Speaker 1: kind of went your own ways or how did that work?

828
00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:56,879
Speaker 1: I feel like we still put pretty close as a group.

829
00:39:57,760 --> 00:40:01,080
Speaker 1: If the vision stuff came man getting to note them

830
00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:03,440
Speaker 1: and connect with them, learn from them. It was just

831
00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:06,560
Speaker 1: a great experience overall. You know, the space pretty well known.

832
00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:09,040
Speaker 1: The Seahawks were looking for an offensive tackle going into

833
00:40:09,080 --> 00:40:12,759
Speaker 1: the draft. Just when the draft started, did you high

834
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:15,400
Speaker 1: expectation the Seahawks would be the one? Or do you

835
00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:17,479
Speaker 1: think you're gonna get picked up even a little bit higher?

836
00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:20,120
Speaker 1: To be honest, I only talked to the Seahous probably

837
00:40:20,160 --> 00:40:23,799
Speaker 1: like two times throughout the whole drab process. Well, I'm

838
00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:26,040
Speaker 1: excited them here, I'm excited in place to be here.

839
00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:28,200
Speaker 1: So I want to share something with you all, and

840
00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:33,480
Speaker 1: and share this too. You negotiated your own contracts. That

841
00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:36,800
Speaker 1: true as a rookie this career, because look, Bobby Wagner's

842
00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:39,960
Speaker 1: done it, Richard Sherman's done it. We had Russello Coomb

843
00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:44,160
Speaker 1: as well, but these guys were veterans. Share how that happened?

844
00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:47,520
Speaker 1: I mean, who did anybody help you with the negotiation. Yeah,

845
00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:49,799
Speaker 1: I did have some help by my business manager, saying

846
00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:54,160
Speaker 1: Omnium and Lifeline Management, and they've been a huge like

847
00:40:54,400 --> 00:41:00,360
Speaker 1: contributor to me, me to contributor to me save my

848
00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:03,239
Speaker 1: own contract. Um, they helped me throughout the process and

849
00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:07,719
Speaker 1: we figured it out. Was it? Uh? Was it intimidating

850
00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:09,600
Speaker 1: to you? I mean, obviously you didn't do anything like

851
00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:12,920
Speaker 1: that in college, but I think you're you're business major

852
00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:15,920
Speaker 1: right in college as well. Yeah, so I'm sure that

853
00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:18,160
Speaker 1: was something you wanted to do. But was it intimidating

854
00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:21,560
Speaker 1: trying to negotiate with you know, I mean I'm figuring

855
00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:24,040
Speaker 1: you're talking with John Schneider and people. It really wasn't

856
00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:27,440
Speaker 1: too intimidating, you know. So the this out the once

857
00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:29,480
Speaker 1: of you year drafted, it is already slided, so it

858
00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:32,080
Speaker 1: will just come down to to figuring out how I

859
00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:34,320
Speaker 1: was gonna get the like designing bonus and payments and

860
00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:36,879
Speaker 1: stuff like that. Do you think that's something that we're

861
00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:39,360
Speaker 1: gonna see more of? Because y'all, you guys are the

862
00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:41,239
Speaker 1: new generation. You know what I'm saying. You guys are

863
00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:44,400
Speaker 1: doing different things like negotiating your own contracts. Do you

864
00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:46,440
Speaker 1: feel like As the years go by, we're gonna see

865
00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:48,560
Speaker 1: more guys coming out of college doing that. I definitely

866
00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:51,040
Speaker 1: feel like they should, I hope. So, well, what are

867
00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:54,040
Speaker 1: the advantages you think of negotiating your own contract? Oh,

868
00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:56,520
Speaker 1: you get to learn in the process. Uh, and you

869
00:41:56,600 --> 00:41:58,480
Speaker 1: get to save money in long run. Those were two

870
00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:00,719
Speaker 1: of my biggest pros on why I did right say

871
00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:04,800
Speaker 1: that three percent? Getting at three percent probably more no

872
00:42:05,040 --> 00:42:06,920
Speaker 1: matter what the number is. Well, they used to have

873
00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:09,719
Speaker 1: a cap to it. Does the nfl PA help you

874
00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:13,200
Speaker 1: with that information? Also? Are they are they a partner

875
00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:15,440
Speaker 1: at all when you go into those negotiations. They did

876
00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:19,560
Speaker 1: reach out and try to help me throughout the negotiation process.

877
00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:22,080
Speaker 1: But it was simple, so it was really it was

878
00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:24,880
Speaker 1: really easy to do. I think that is so impressive.

879
00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:28,120
Speaker 1: I mean, again, business major left hack or you gotta

880
00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:31,239
Speaker 1: be smart anyways, but you know, just get you immediately.

881
00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:34,520
Speaker 1: You're involved in your finances, you know, and your investments

882
00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:36,840
Speaker 1: you know in your own career. So you know, again,

883
00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:39,880
Speaker 1: well well done, that's impressive. What do you say? So

884
00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:43,279
Speaker 1: coming out of Mississippi State, Mike Leach was your head coach, right,

885
00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:45,800
Speaker 1: He was a head coach at my alma mater, WSU

886
00:42:46,040 --> 00:42:48,239
Speaker 1: trying to change the game for us, and they love

887
00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:50,080
Speaker 1: to throw the ball. So coming out, people are like, man,

888
00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:52,160
Speaker 1: how is Charles's gonna do in the run game? I mean,

889
00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:56,160
Speaker 1: obviously Leech runs the ball too, But when you heard

890
00:42:56,239 --> 00:42:58,000
Speaker 1: that kind of stuff that you put a chip on

891
00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:00,120
Speaker 1: your shoulder and say, I'm gonna prove these dudes wrong

892
00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:01,640
Speaker 1: or I'm just I'm gonna just do me. And I

893
00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:03,640
Speaker 1: know I could do whatever this offense asked me to do.

894
00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:06,120
Speaker 1: So differently, just come in and do whatever the offense

895
00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:08,600
Speaker 1: asked me to do. I'll just prove myself, right, I

896
00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:11,160
Speaker 1: proved to myself. I'm not proving anybody else. So what

897
00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:13,480
Speaker 1: what was it like your first Now its preseason game,

898
00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:15,360
Speaker 1: but it's still official game. You put on the jersey.

899
00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:17,120
Speaker 1: What was that first snap? Like? You remember the player?

900
00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:19,120
Speaker 1: You guys ran your first snap? Oh? I think it

901
00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:21,560
Speaker 1: was a run play. Nay, you are away from they

902
00:43:21,600 --> 00:43:23,920
Speaker 1: don't run. I think I think it was towards me.

903
00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:27,000
Speaker 1: I'm not too sure. Okay, felt good though, it felt good.

904
00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:29,400
Speaker 1: There we go. Good. Yeah. I share a little bit

905
00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:31,680
Speaker 1: about Mike Leach. I mean, we we know him from

906
00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:34,480
Speaker 1: the Northwest and everybody liked him but just when he

907
00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:37,320
Speaker 1: got there and what was that experience, like, it was

908
00:43:37,360 --> 00:43:41,680
Speaker 1: definitely different. Um. Coach, He's definitely a character. He's not

909
00:43:42,200 --> 00:43:45,879
Speaker 1: an average coach. He's different. It's like the best way

910
00:43:45,880 --> 00:43:48,640
Speaker 1: I couldn't describe him. He doesn't. He does his own

911
00:43:48,719 --> 00:43:50,759
Speaker 1: thing because he talked. I mean, and then you got

912
00:43:50,840 --> 00:43:53,960
Speaker 1: Pete Carroll, who's you know, he's he's gonna pump you

913
00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:56,880
Speaker 1: up every second you can. What's just the little differences

914
00:43:56,920 --> 00:43:59,040
Speaker 1: between those two. I feel like, I feel like coach

915
00:43:59,120 --> 00:44:01,359
Speaker 1: karb bruns a lot of n H and the energy

916
00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:03,440
Speaker 1: runs through like the whole team through the coach stealth

917
00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:06,200
Speaker 1: and everybody feels it, and it's just it's a great

918
00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:10,000
Speaker 1: it's a great atmosphere to be around. Man, it is

919
00:44:10,040 --> 00:44:12,680
Speaker 1: pretty amazing. Mean, I just talk. Look, we're gonna have

920
00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:16,280
Speaker 1: two starting rookie tackles this week. I mean there's probably

921
00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:18,200
Speaker 1: really not a team in the NFL would do that

922
00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:20,880
Speaker 1: except for Pete because he lets let you guys compete,

923
00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:23,400
Speaker 1: just share what he talks to you guys about, just

924
00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:26,560
Speaker 1: preparing you both for this first game. O. Religious it's

925
00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:30,680
Speaker 1: a different thing competing um and finishing, like just finishing

926
00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:34,600
Speaker 1: competing those like top three things, man, I love. One

927
00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:36,520
Speaker 1: of things I miss about football is just being in

928
00:44:36,560 --> 00:44:39,080
Speaker 1: the huddle with dudes right after you make a player,

929
00:44:39,120 --> 00:44:41,880
Speaker 1: even after stuff ain't going right, when you're when when

930
00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:44,040
Speaker 1: you've been in the huddle during this preseason? What's what's

931
00:44:44,080 --> 00:44:46,400
Speaker 1: Geno like? Is he assertive? Is he laid back? He

932
00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:48,400
Speaker 1: seems like a laid back type of dude. What's he like?

933
00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:50,839
Speaker 1: Gino is a he's a very even key the type person.

934
00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:54,279
Speaker 1: Oh he doesn't leave anything face him and uh so

935
00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:56,600
Speaker 1: now and now you get to block for a rookie

936
00:44:56,640 --> 00:44:58,480
Speaker 1: running back as well. You got Ken Walker once he

937
00:44:58,520 --> 00:45:00,960
Speaker 1: gets healthy, Um, he gonna be out there. You got

938
00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:04,120
Speaker 1: Rashad Penny. What does it feel like knowing that? All right? Man,

939
00:45:04,160 --> 00:45:06,240
Speaker 1: we guys own right coming. I got some guys behind

940
00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:08,839
Speaker 1: me who can get me four or five six yards

941
00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:11,680
Speaker 1: off the rip. I'm excited to see him. I'm excited

942
00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:14,440
Speaker 1: to do will hit the holes, score sets down, celebrate

943
00:45:14,480 --> 00:45:16,400
Speaker 1: what I'm excited for the there we go. What what

944
00:45:16,600 --> 00:45:19,680
Speaker 1: has been the biggest change, I mean coming from Leech's offense?

945
00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:22,600
Speaker 1: Were you you were usually in the two point STAPs, right,

946
00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:24,800
Speaker 1: you guys were rarely with a three point stand with

947
00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:26,960
Speaker 1: a hand down right right where now you you will

948
00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:29,560
Speaker 1: be a little bit more. What's the biggest change? Just

949
00:45:30,320 --> 00:45:31,880
Speaker 1: you know where you came from, what you have to

950
00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:34,279
Speaker 1: do here in the NFL. I've just learned how to

951
00:45:34,320 --> 00:45:38,000
Speaker 1: be uncomfortable, be comfortable, get comfortable with being uncomfortable. Um,

952
00:45:38,239 --> 00:45:40,600
Speaker 1: and just taking it from there and continue to improve

953
00:45:40,640 --> 00:45:44,520
Speaker 1: an improving his days. Well, you are past protection. It

954
00:45:44,640 --> 00:45:46,880
Speaker 1: makes you make it look really easy. And you're a

955
00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:50,560
Speaker 1: rookie and you you watch them, you're gonna be unbelievably impressed.

956
00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:52,439
Speaker 1: We got a left tackle here for a long time,

957
00:45:52,520 --> 00:45:55,040
Speaker 1: that's for sure. But tell me about the game. You

958
00:45:55,120 --> 00:45:58,680
Speaker 1: had some you know, legal procedures. Just what was that about?

959
00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:02,399
Speaker 1: And what Pete tell you about correcting some of those things?

960
00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:04,000
Speaker 1: To me, I can't do that. Can't do that in

961
00:46:04,040 --> 00:46:07,480
Speaker 1: a regular Susie game. Um. The mistakes you learn from

962
00:46:07,520 --> 00:46:11,080
Speaker 1: them and you're not you're trying to make them again. Yeah,

963

982
00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:09,120
Speaker 1: There we go, Okay, every every NFL team we've been on,

983
00:47:10,040 --> 00:47:12,400
Speaker 1: every guy thinks they can play basketball. This guy can

984
00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:14,840
Speaker 1: play basketball and he was a two time state champion.

985
00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:18,440
Speaker 1: Went back in Mississippi. Is that where we got sweet

986
00:47:18,480 --> 00:47:22,600
Speaker 1: feet from? Um? They actually came from Missippi State. One

987
00:47:22,640 --> 00:47:24,680
Speaker 1: of the transm Melissas. He's a copple sweetood. All the time,

988
00:47:24,680 --> 00:47:27,399
Speaker 1: it was just stuck with how good a basketball player.

989
00:47:27,440 --> 00:47:29,360
Speaker 1: Were you in high scot read up some of your stats,

990
00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:31,440
Speaker 1: but you were a small power for it, I'm a

991
00:47:31,480 --> 00:47:34,160
Speaker 1: magic How tall are you? Six four six five? I

992
00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:36,640
Speaker 1: mean that's kind of a shooting guard nowadays. Um, so

993
00:47:36,719 --> 00:47:40,880
Speaker 1: I'm thinking to transition to play college basketball. Maybe that

994
00:47:41,320 --> 00:47:43,080
Speaker 1: wasn't it? But how good were you in high school?

995
00:47:43,320 --> 00:47:47,239
Speaker 1: And b you can be boastful here? Yeah, I feel

996
00:47:47,239 --> 00:47:50,160
Speaker 1: like I feel I was a great player. I really didn't.

997
00:47:50,920 --> 00:47:52,880
Speaker 1: I really didn't like help to me assist anything, but

998
00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:55,680
Speaker 1: like almost here a game I had like a double double,

999
00:47:55,719 --> 00:47:58,759
Speaker 1: So like I was good. I was doing. Okay, what

1000
00:47:59,440 --> 00:48:02,399
Speaker 1: can you shoot? I mean, I know Tyler Lockett thinks

1001
00:48:02,440 --> 00:48:04,400
Speaker 1: she's probably the best shooter on the team right now, right,

1002
00:48:05,160 --> 00:48:07,160
Speaker 1: I'm all right, I'm all right. Issue it's not it's

1003
00:48:07,200 --> 00:48:11,359
Speaker 1: not one of my bit drinks. Well I'm gonna score points.

1004
00:48:11,400 --> 00:48:13,040

1006
00:48:16,280 --> 00:48:18,839

00:50:59,560 --> 00:51:02,719
Speaker 1: It happens great whiskey there and they also have great

1062
00:51:02,760 --> 00:51:09,320
Speaker 1: contails like the mek My wife is Latin saw, you

1063
00:51:09,360 --> 00:51:13,799
Speaker 1: know what I mean. All right, man, let's get back

1064
00:51:13,800 --> 00:51:15,520
Speaker 1: to the Seahawks though. All right, how are we going

1065
00:51:15,560 --> 00:51:18,920
Speaker 1: to measure success in twenty twenty two? All right, I

1066
00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:21,120
Speaker 1: don't think you can look at the wins and the losses.

1067
00:51:21,160 --> 00:51:23,480
Speaker 1: You're going to look at wins and lasses. That's natural, right,

1068
00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:25,680
Speaker 1: especially on Monday. You want these guys to come out

1069
00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:28,480
Speaker 1: and get a w Um. But to me, I'm looking

1070
00:51:28,520 --> 00:51:31,480
Speaker 1: at progress Um offensively. I'll talk about the offense while

1071
00:51:31,480 --> 00:51:32,840
Speaker 1: I want to see from the offense. I want to

1072
00:51:32,880 --> 00:51:36,000
Speaker 1: see this offense look a bit more dynamic. Losing d

1073
00:51:36,200 --> 00:51:38,759
Speaker 1: Eskridge last year hurt the team more than I think

1074
00:51:38,760 --> 00:51:40,680
Speaker 1: people think they think. D Eskridge man, he's been hurt

1075
00:51:40,680 --> 00:51:42,200
Speaker 1: all the time. What does he mean to this offense?

1076
00:51:42,239 --> 00:51:44,360
Speaker 1: To me, he means he's a jet sweep guy, a

1077
00:51:44,440 --> 00:51:47,239
Speaker 1: legit jet sweep guy, a guy who can stretch the

1078
00:51:47,280 --> 00:51:49,200
Speaker 1: field vertically. He's got some wiggle to the game. I

1079
00:51:49,280 --> 00:51:51,560
Speaker 1: look at all the receivers on this team, and I

1080
00:51:51,600 --> 00:51:54,920
Speaker 1: don't see any receivers that move the way that d

1081
00:51:55,120 --> 00:51:57,120
Speaker 1: Eskridge does. So I'm looking to see him. I'm looking

1082
00:51:57,120 --> 00:51:58,759
Speaker 1: to see Penny hard. We know what we're gonna get

1083
00:51:59,040 --> 00:52:02,080
Speaker 1: out of d k locked in. If for Shod Penny

1084
00:52:02,120 --> 00:52:04,439
Speaker 1: stays healthy, we know we're gonna see there. I'm looking

1085
00:52:04,480 --> 00:52:08,480
Speaker 1: to see how Shane Waldron builds week by week off

1086
00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:10,200
Speaker 1: of things that he puts on film, because, as you

1087
00:52:10,280 --> 00:52:13,600
Speaker 1: know Moyer, offensively, you come in with a game plan

1088
00:52:13,760 --> 00:52:15,719
Speaker 1: one week and you add a little bit. The next week,

1089
00:52:15,760 --> 00:52:17,200
Speaker 1: you add a little bit the next week. If your

1090
00:52:17,239 --> 00:52:19,680
Speaker 1: team can handle it so offensively, man, I want to

1091
00:52:19,680 --> 00:52:22,839
Speaker 1: see how this thing blossoms and how it grows. Yeah,

1092
00:52:22,880 --> 00:52:27,960
Speaker 1: I don't. Yeah, I want us to be competitive. And

1093
00:52:28,040 --> 00:52:29,880
Speaker 1: the reason why I'm not putting wins on it, I

1094
00:52:30,000 --> 00:52:33,440
Speaker 1: just we have so many young players going in this

1095
00:52:33,560 --> 00:52:36,760
Speaker 1: we have a new quarterback. Our offense is gonna look different.

1096
00:52:36,840 --> 00:52:38,400
Speaker 1: Not that the play calls are going to be that

1097
00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:41,400
Speaker 1: much different. Um. I think last year we had to

1098
00:52:41,480 --> 00:52:44,320
Speaker 1: play and you're right, I think we missed looked to me,

1099
00:52:44,440 --> 00:52:47,239
Speaker 1: we've missed Doug Baldwin third downs. We have not been

1100
00:52:47,320 --> 00:52:51,080
Speaker 1: the same because that spot that he's kind of like

1101
00:52:51,160 --> 00:52:53,000
Speaker 1: Cooper cut. I mean, he really can't get him off

1102
00:52:53,040 --> 00:52:55,160
Speaker 1: the line. You can't jam him. He's going to beat

1103
00:52:55,200 --> 00:52:57,560
Speaker 1: you off the line. He's going to get separation and

1104
00:52:57,680 --> 00:53:00,239
Speaker 1: that's an easy throw for a first down for five, six, seven,

1105
00:53:00,280 --> 00:53:03,359
Speaker 1: eight yards. I think we're gonna have more too tight

1106
00:53:03,440 --> 00:53:06,000
Speaker 1: in offense. I think they would have liked it done

1107
00:53:06,080 --> 00:53:08,560
Speaker 1: more than that last year. But you know again, I

1108
00:53:08,600 --> 00:53:11,040
Speaker 1: think Russell was like, I want to push the ball

1109
00:53:11,280 --> 00:53:13,279
Speaker 1: more downfield, and there was times that we needed to

1110
00:53:13,320 --> 00:53:15,600
Speaker 1: go three tight in offense because we are usually in

1111
00:53:15,680 --> 00:53:17,719
Speaker 1: second long or third and long from some sacks. So

1112
00:53:18,080 --> 00:53:20,520
Speaker 1: I don't know if the play calls are necessarily going

1113
00:53:20,560 --> 00:53:24,120
Speaker 1: to be different. I think the way we execute him

1114
00:53:24,120 --> 00:53:27,000
Speaker 1: will be. I think it will see more checkdowns. If

1115
00:53:27,120 --> 00:53:30,000
Speaker 1: Geno's in trouble or if he feels heat, there's gonna

1116
00:53:30,040 --> 00:53:34,239
Speaker 1: be options for him. And look, the good and the

1117
00:53:34,280 --> 00:53:37,359
Speaker 1: bad with Russell was. The bad was he would take

1118
00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:39,439
Speaker 1: some sacks at times. The good was he could extend

1119
00:53:39,520 --> 00:53:41,840
Speaker 1: to play and hit DK Metcalf on a deep, you know,

1120
00:53:42,040 --> 00:53:45,520
Speaker 1: improvised play. So I'm excited to see what Shane's offense

1121
00:53:45,640 --> 00:53:48,120
Speaker 1: is going to do with a quarterback that can work

1122
00:53:48,120 --> 00:53:49,520
Speaker 1: a little bit more in the middle of the field.

1123
00:53:50,000 --> 00:53:52,600
Speaker 1: It won't be probably as exciting, but I think it'll

1124
00:53:52,600 --> 00:53:55,280
Speaker 1: be exciting. If the change they're moving and we're actually

1125
00:53:55,360 --> 00:53:58,719
Speaker 1: scoring and keeping possession, we're gonna I believe we're gonna

1126
00:53:58,719 --> 00:54:01,360
Speaker 1: be a really good football team running the ball. I

1127
00:54:01,520 --> 00:54:04,279
Speaker 1: like our offensive line, but we're young. We got what

1128
00:54:04,520 --> 00:54:08,080
Speaker 1: three new people on our offensive line where we'd be better.

1129
00:54:09,280 --> 00:54:11,959
Speaker 1: I think we have more talent on the offensive line.

1130
00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:15,640
Speaker 1: We got massive talent on defense. I don't know what

1131
00:54:15,680 --> 00:54:18,800
Speaker 1: it's that's gonna look like yet, right right, So success

1132
00:54:18,880 --> 00:54:22,920
Speaker 1: for me is huge improvement on defense, huge, right, I

1133
00:54:23,000 --> 00:54:24,960
Speaker 1: mean I want to be a top fifteen defense. That

1134
00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:28,120
Speaker 1: would be massive success. And I want to be the

1135
00:54:28,480 --> 00:54:32,759
Speaker 1: best running team in the NFL. Let's do it, Moyer, Okay,

1136
00:54:32,920 --> 00:54:35,480
Speaker 1: let's do all of that defensively, how do we measure

1137
00:54:35,520 --> 00:54:40,719
Speaker 1: success me? I'm looking for a pass rusher to have

1138
00:54:40,880 --> 00:54:43,480
Speaker 1: double digit sex. When was the last time that happened?

1139
00:54:43,560 --> 00:54:48,280
Speaker 1: Was it Frank Clark? Frank Clark, I know Carlos Dunlap

1140
00:54:48,320 --> 00:54:50,120
Speaker 1: had eight and a half. We got a producer over

1141
00:54:50,120 --> 00:54:51,840
Speaker 1: there could probably looked at whenever I want to, I

1142
00:54:51,880 --> 00:54:55,080
Speaker 1: think it's Frank Clark last Seahawk double digit sex. And

1143
00:54:55,600 --> 00:55:00,160
Speaker 1: I want someone other than Quandre Digs to have re

1144
00:55:00,360 --> 00:55:04,959
Speaker 1: plus picks. Last year it was dj oh the Corner

1145
00:55:05,120 --> 00:55:07,879
Speaker 1: Dja Reid. Dj Reid had had two interceptions. Now he's

1146
00:55:07,960 --> 00:55:10,359
Speaker 1: with the New York Jets. Um Quandre Diggs had five

1147
00:55:10,440 --> 00:55:13,480
Speaker 1: interceptions of the past what four seasons? I need this

1148
00:55:13,719 --> 00:55:16,400
Speaker 1: this second day to to produce some some turnovers. I

1149
00:55:16,480 --> 00:55:20,120
Speaker 1: could pick a hundred ways it will be better on

1150
00:55:20,320 --> 00:55:23,279
Speaker 1: defense and share. First of all, it's just purely and

1151
00:55:23,400 --> 00:55:26,000
Speaker 1: I don't like to put too much credit with coaches

1152
00:55:26,000 --> 00:55:29,160
Speaker 1: because you got to have players to win. But you know, again,

1153
00:55:29,280 --> 00:55:30,880
Speaker 1: this wasn't a knock on Ken Norton. I mean, he

1154
00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:33,560
Speaker 1: just he had a way of running his defense. But

1155
00:55:33,920 --> 00:55:37,840
Speaker 1: you know a past defense was not his strength. And

1156
00:55:38,080 --> 00:55:40,279
Speaker 1: we've got some coaches now that I believe it is.

1157
00:55:40,320 --> 00:55:42,600
Speaker 1: We're gonna be more aggressive. I mean coach he talks

1158
00:55:42,600 --> 00:55:44,319
Speaker 1: about it all the time. I've never heard a coach

1159
00:55:44,360 --> 00:55:46,680
Speaker 1: say we're gonna be less aggressive, but we're gonna be

1160
00:55:46,719 --> 00:55:50,320
Speaker 1: more aggressive in coverage. I think we'll have better pressure

1161
00:55:50,360 --> 00:55:53,080
Speaker 1: because we're gonna have guys. Look, we got some guys

1162
00:55:53,080 --> 00:55:55,160
Speaker 1: who come off the edge, you know. I mean, for sure,

1163
00:55:55,320 --> 00:55:58,560
Speaker 1: Darryl Taylor, he's probably gonna be your double digit guy.

1164
00:55:58,600 --> 00:56:00,719
Speaker 1: But I think you're gonna see Jamal out have a

1165
00:56:00,960 --> 00:56:03,680
Speaker 1: bigger impact this year in the past for us because

1166
00:56:03,719 --> 00:56:05,560
Speaker 1: you're not gonna know where he's coming from. There's a

1167
00:56:05,640 --> 00:56:08,960
Speaker 1: couple of plays in practice I watched when Jamal Adams

1168
00:56:09,200 --> 00:56:11,960
Speaker 1: was in during practice when he came back and they

1169
00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:13,719
Speaker 1: had motioned I think it was either a tight end

1170
00:56:13,800 --> 00:56:17,160
Speaker 1: or a wide receiver, and the backers actually bumped out

1171
00:56:17,440 --> 00:56:21,680
Speaker 1: when they motioned across the formation and Jamal was sitting

1172
00:56:21,680 --> 00:56:24,160
Speaker 1: in the middle of the field. Yes, and let me

1173
00:56:24,200 --> 00:56:27,320
Speaker 1: tell you what can he read a run game? He

1174
00:56:27,480 --> 00:56:29,560
Speaker 1: beat both the guard in the center who were trying

1175
00:56:29,600 --> 00:56:30,960
Speaker 1: to cut him off that couldn't do it, and he

1176
00:56:31,000 --> 00:56:33,560
Speaker 1: made about three yard play in the backfield. And it said,

1177
00:56:33,640 --> 00:56:35,680
Speaker 1: that's what he brings to the game. He brings that

1178
00:56:35,840 --> 00:56:39,040
Speaker 1: kind of explosiveness. And now mixing him coming off the

1179
00:56:39,200 --> 00:56:42,280
Speaker 1: edge or even up the middle in some pass rush situations,

1180
00:56:42,320 --> 00:56:44,040
Speaker 1: which we're going to be able to do with him

1181
00:56:44,160 --> 00:56:46,440
Speaker 1: because we got backers who could actually drop, so they

1182
00:56:46,480 --> 00:56:48,200
Speaker 1: are not not going to know or at least they're

1183
00:56:48,200 --> 00:56:53,000
Speaker 1: gonna have less I guess they'll have less opportunities to

1184
00:56:53,080 --> 00:56:56,120
Speaker 1: know who's coming on a blitz. So we're gonna be

1185
00:56:56,560 --> 00:56:59,359
Speaker 1: massively improved on defense. All right, I'm with you when

1186
00:56:59,400 --> 00:57:02,680
Speaker 1: he comes to the changes on defense, using Jamal correctly

1187
00:57:02,880 --> 00:57:05,279
Speaker 1: or in a way that highlights his attributes with what

1188
00:57:05,360 --> 00:57:07,960
Speaker 1: he's best at. But now let's focus on these rookies, man,

1189
00:57:08,040 --> 00:57:10,399
Speaker 1: because this was one of the best drafts I've seen

1190
00:57:10,480 --> 00:57:13,200
Speaker 1: him from the Seahawks in a long time. So my question,

1191
00:57:13,960 --> 00:57:16,440
Speaker 1: and I'll give you my answer as well, is who

1192
00:57:16,440 --> 00:57:18,480
Speaker 1: will be the most impactful rookie this season? We got

1193
00:57:18,600 --> 00:57:21,080
Speaker 1: Charles Cross, boy and ma Fake ken Walker, Abe Lucas,

1194
00:57:21,160 --> 00:57:26,320
Speaker 1: Kobe Bryant, Trek, Willen bol Melton, and Derek Young. Me personally,

1195
00:57:26,320 --> 00:57:31,080
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Boya. I really think boy A

1196
00:57:31,480 --> 00:57:33,280
Speaker 1: will be the most impact now, he'll be the most

1197
00:57:33,360 --> 00:57:36,160
Speaker 1: impactful that the average fan will be able to recognize, right,

1198
00:57:36,240 --> 00:57:38,360
Speaker 1: because you can look at that offensive line and the

1199
00:57:38,400 --> 00:57:41,000
Speaker 1: only time you're really point out offensive lineman is when

1200
00:57:41,040 --> 00:57:43,720
Speaker 1: they're doing something wrong. Right. You never it's hardly. I

1201
00:57:43,880 --> 00:57:46,280
Speaker 1: hardly watch a game with my boys are or my

1202
00:57:46,360 --> 00:57:48,440
Speaker 1: text threat and someone says, you see that blocked by

1203
00:57:48,560 --> 00:57:50,520
Speaker 1: Charles Cross? Did you see this? Now? They focus on

1204
00:57:50,640 --> 00:57:52,880
Speaker 1: the negative with that old line. So me, I'm gonna

1205
00:57:52,880 --> 00:57:56,120
Speaker 1: go with boy A Mathe. I love the rawness in

1206
00:57:56,200 --> 00:57:58,280
Speaker 1: this game. He started playing football, I thinking like tenth

1207
00:57:58,360 --> 00:58:00,880
Speaker 1: grade or something like that. And there that's a gift

1208
00:58:00,960 --> 00:58:03,840
Speaker 1: and a curse, right. The gift is are the curses

1209
00:58:03,960 --> 00:58:07,840
Speaker 1: that you don't have experience, right, you haven't had thousands

1210
00:58:07,920 --> 00:58:09,600
Speaker 1: of snaps like a lot of these guys have had.

1211
00:58:09,920 --> 00:58:12,560
Speaker 1: The gift is that you're gonna do exactly what you're

1212
00:58:12,600 --> 00:58:14,640
Speaker 1: told because that's all you know, right, You don't have

1213
00:58:15,200 --> 00:58:17,200
Speaker 1: you haven't been coached up by three or four different

1214
00:58:17,200 --> 00:58:19,200
Speaker 1: position coaches who I have three or four different ways

1215
00:58:19,240 --> 00:58:21,280
Speaker 1: of doing things, and that's how we shine. At the

1216
00:58:21,320 --> 00:58:23,360
Speaker 1: Senior Bowl, someone asked when they go, you know, how

1217
00:58:23,400 --> 00:58:26,200
Speaker 1: were you able to come out here and shine against

1218
00:58:26,280 --> 00:58:27,960
Speaker 1: the best guys in the country. He goes, I just

1219
00:58:28,040 --> 00:58:29,600
Speaker 1: did what I was told to do, you know. And

1220
00:58:29,680 --> 00:58:31,080
Speaker 1: he has the ability just to go out there and

1221
00:58:31,120 --> 00:58:33,320
Speaker 1: execut what guys are asking him to do. So I

1222
00:58:33,480 --> 00:58:36,760
Speaker 1: like boy a muffat he is that there might be

1223
00:58:36,880 --> 00:58:39,480
Speaker 1: a steal in the draft, and he was electric even

1224
00:58:39,520 --> 00:58:42,960
Speaker 1: in preseason and practices. He's got he's got that k

1225
00:58:43,240 --> 00:58:45,120
Speaker 1: I mean him and Daryl Taylor at some point they

1226
00:58:45,160 --> 00:58:47,480
Speaker 1: were going to be there, but they're may on the

1227
00:58:47,520 --> 00:58:50,680
Speaker 1: field together, you know, going after the pastor I don't know.

1228
00:58:51,520 --> 00:58:54,400
Speaker 1: Originally I was gonna go with Kenneth Walker. Um, he's hurt,

1229
00:58:54,480 --> 00:58:56,800
Speaker 1: so you know, he's probably not gonna have quite the opportunity.

1230
00:58:56,880 --> 00:59:00,320
Speaker 1: And I think the way DJ Dallas played in pre season,

1231
00:59:00,400 --> 00:59:03,840
Speaker 1: it's gonna be hard to get just enough carries between

1232
00:59:03,920 --> 00:59:06,120
Speaker 1: him and Penny and everybody to make a huge impact.

1233
00:59:06,480 --> 00:59:09,640
Speaker 1: Cross You're gonna love him. We are gonna love he's

1234
00:59:09,680 --> 00:59:12,880
Speaker 1: better than to me Dwayne Brown already in pass protection

1235
00:59:12,920 --> 00:59:15,000
Speaker 1: because Dwayne took a little bit of a step back

1236
00:59:15,360 --> 00:59:17,439
Speaker 1: the last couple of years, even though Dwayne was still

1237
00:59:17,560 --> 00:59:20,360
Speaker 1: a very good player. But Charles pass protection, he makes

1238
00:59:20,400 --> 00:59:23,480
Speaker 1: a look unbelievable easy. I just you know, how do

1239
00:59:23,560 --> 00:59:27,479
Speaker 1: you rate that impact? You know, TYRK cooling. That could

1240
00:59:27,520 --> 00:59:30,240
Speaker 1: be interesting because if you play him on the right

1241
00:59:30,280 --> 00:59:33,080
Speaker 1: side andminds me a little bit of a Browner When

1242
00:59:33,120 --> 00:59:35,160
Speaker 1: we first did that and said, hey, I just want

1243
00:59:35,200 --> 00:59:38,480
Speaker 1: you to play inside technique, force the guys to the sideline,

1244
00:59:38,880 --> 00:59:40,840
Speaker 1: make them try and throw the ball over you. They're

1245
00:59:40,840 --> 00:59:43,120
Speaker 1: gonna have it. It's gonna be almost impossible because of

1246
00:59:43,160 --> 00:59:45,560
Speaker 1: his speed and his length. I mean, you have to

1247
00:59:45,720 --> 00:59:48,600
Speaker 1: change the trajectory of a throw on a deep ball.

1248
00:59:48,640 --> 00:59:50,400
Speaker 1: When you have a guy who's six four with that

1249
00:59:50,560 --> 00:59:53,040
Speaker 1: kind of wingspan, you have to throw a dime that

1250
00:59:53,160 --> 00:59:55,960
Speaker 1: drops from the sky to get that in. That is

1251
00:59:56,640 --> 00:59:58,400
Speaker 1: the people are going to shy away from that, So

1252
00:59:59,000 --> 01:00:05,000
Speaker 1: that'll be interesting. I'm gonna go with God to start.

1253
01:00:05,120 --> 01:00:07,320
Speaker 1: I think there's so many of them outs, but I'm

1254
01:00:07,360 --> 01:00:09,880
Speaker 1: gonna go with Charles Cross. I just think he, uh,

1255
01:00:10,320 --> 01:00:12,080
Speaker 1: he's better than I thought he was gonna be and

1256
01:00:12,160 --> 01:00:14,480
Speaker 1: I thought he was gonna be pretty good, and we

1257
01:00:14,600 --> 01:00:16,320
Speaker 1: just had him on the show. I mean, he's he's

1258
01:00:16,320 --> 01:00:18,080
Speaker 1: so endearing, he's kind of want to hug the guy,

1259
01:00:18,320 --> 01:00:19,720
Speaker 1: you know, I want to put my arms around him

1260
01:00:19,720 --> 01:00:21,760
Speaker 1: and let him know he's gonna be amazing, because he's

1261
01:00:21,800 --> 01:00:24,280
Speaker 1: gonna be amazing. All Right, We're gonna need these rookies

1262
01:00:24,320 --> 01:00:26,680
Speaker 1: to perform to help the team out this year. Okay,

1263
01:00:26,680 --> 01:00:28,640
Speaker 1: but when we return his time to talk that talk

1264
01:00:28,720 --> 01:00:30,600
Speaker 1: this when we pick out a couple of topics and

1265
01:00:30,680 --> 01:00:33,560
Speaker 1: we go head to head, will Russell Wilson win an

1266
01:00:33,640 --> 01:00:37,160
Speaker 1: MVP with the Broncos. The Lance Trey Lance experiment in

1267
01:00:37,280 --> 01:00:39,360
Speaker 1: San fran is Za gonna work. We'll touch on that

1268
01:00:39,440 --> 01:00:41,320
Speaker 1: and other things that's coming up next right here on

1269
01:00:41,360 --> 01:00:45,200
Speaker 1: Hawks Lide. We got football coming up on Monday. All right,

1270
01:00:45,320 --> 01:00:48,439
Speaker 1: Seahawks first, the Broncos. This is the most anticipated game

1271
01:00:48,920 --> 01:00:51,040
Speaker 1: of the year by far. I mean, you had the

1272
01:00:51,120 --> 01:00:52,960
Speaker 1: Bills in the Rams tonight, all right, good game. I

1273
01:00:53,040 --> 01:00:56,040
Speaker 1: mentioned the Parentthers in the Browns. All right, good game.

1274
01:00:56,080 --> 01:00:57,720
Speaker 1: But the NFL knows what they're doing when it comes

1275
01:00:57,760 --> 01:00:59,560
Speaker 1: to scheduling games, and they said, oh, yeah, Russell, you

1276
01:00:59,640 --> 01:01:02,360
Speaker 1: want out? Okay, where'd you go? All right, let's set

1277
01:01:02,440 --> 01:01:04,440
Speaker 1: that up and make it a prime time game. And

1278
01:01:04,680 --> 01:01:07,720
Speaker 1: I'm opening I'm looking forward to because there's so much unknown.

1279
01:01:08,000 --> 01:01:11,120
Speaker 1: It's like, what's Russell Wilson gonna look like? You know,

1280
01:01:11,240 --> 01:01:13,320
Speaker 1: he's this is his offense. He's gonna be able to

1281
01:01:13,360 --> 01:01:15,640
Speaker 1: do whatever he wants to do. What's Geno gonna look like?

1282
01:01:15,720 --> 01:01:17,920
Speaker 1: People are our doubting Geno? You know, Oh he's not.

1283
01:01:18,280 --> 01:01:20,000
Speaker 1: He's not Russell. He don't need to be Russell, just

1284
01:01:20,080 --> 01:01:22,200
Speaker 1: talented around him. So I'm just interested in how this

1285
01:01:22,400 --> 01:01:24,840
Speaker 1: whole thing plays out and which side of the ball

1286
01:01:25,440 --> 01:01:29,520
Speaker 1: leads the charges coming out the gate. Yeah, I think

1287
01:01:29,600 --> 01:01:32,480
Speaker 1: it's kind of simple. I mean, we just have to

1288
01:01:32,640 --> 01:01:36,080
Speaker 1: do what we're expected to do really well, you know,

1289
01:01:36,240 --> 01:01:38,680
Speaker 1: So we have to be able to run the football exceptional.

1290
01:01:39,080 --> 01:01:41,880
Speaker 1: We can't put ourselves in tough situation and it's always

1291
01:01:41,880 --> 01:01:44,160
Speaker 1: a turnover game, so that we gotta win that battle.

1292
01:01:44,560 --> 01:01:47,680
Speaker 1: And then defensively, I'm just really curious. I think we

1293
01:01:47,840 --> 01:01:51,760
Speaker 1: can shut Russell down a bit. What does that mean?

1294
01:01:52,320 --> 01:01:54,240
Speaker 1: Just not give up the big play, make him do

1295
01:01:54,400 --> 01:01:57,000
Speaker 1: something he doesn't want to do. Now at the same time. Look,

1296
01:01:57,080 --> 01:01:59,400
Speaker 1: this is like a girlfriend who broke up with you,

1297
01:01:59,480 --> 01:02:02,600
Speaker 1: and you go, she'd better be dating an ugly dude, right,

1298
01:02:02,680 --> 01:02:05,320
Speaker 1: I mean better, he better not be better looking than me,

1299
01:02:05,920 --> 01:02:08,480
Speaker 1: And I just don't want it to look better than

1300
01:02:08,560 --> 01:02:11,840
Speaker 1: it's looked in the past. So to me, it's I

1301
01:02:11,920 --> 01:02:13,800
Speaker 1: think we set him down. But when I'm nervous because

1302
01:02:13,800 --> 01:02:16,320
Speaker 1: we're playing a three four defense, we got to be

1303
01:02:16,440 --> 01:02:18,120
Speaker 1: really good against a run because they do have a

1304
01:02:18,160 --> 01:02:20,520
Speaker 1: good running game. I don't think it's better than ours,

1305
01:02:20,760 --> 01:02:23,200
Speaker 1: you know, at least last year. So those are the

1306
01:02:23,280 --> 01:02:26,320
Speaker 1: big ones. We got so many weapons offensively, as you

1307
01:02:26,440 --> 01:02:29,040
Speaker 1: mentioned with Gino, I just take what they give you.

1308
01:02:29,440 --> 01:02:31,680
Speaker 1: You know you got Noah Fant, we got We talked

1309
01:02:31,680 --> 01:02:36,080
Speaker 1: about Kobe bark Parkinson, Um, you know, we've obviously d

1310
01:02:36,360 --> 01:02:39,360
Speaker 1: DK and Tyler, and don't forget the running backs. I mean,

1311
01:02:39,800 --> 01:02:42,160
Speaker 1: there's so many weapons for him to use. And I

1312
01:02:42,240 --> 01:02:44,240
Speaker 1: think our offensive line is gonna be pretty good. But

1313
01:02:44,440 --> 01:02:48,520
Speaker 1: we we can't put this on our quarterback. We every

1314
01:02:48,600 --> 01:02:51,200
Speaker 1: other guy on this team has to play his best football.

1315
01:02:51,520 --> 01:02:53,320
Speaker 1: And I don't know what to expect. I don't know

1316
01:02:53,400 --> 01:02:54,840
Speaker 1: how good Denver is going to be. I don't know

1317
01:02:54,920 --> 01:02:56,880
Speaker 1: how good we're going to be. But I'm excited to

1318
01:02:56,960 --> 01:02:58,760
Speaker 1: see what we do. This is why we don't know

1319
01:02:58,800 --> 01:03:00,919
Speaker 1: how good Diver is gonna be. We didn't see Russell

1320
01:03:01,000 --> 01:03:03,880
Speaker 1: out there now one time during the preseason, which was

1321
01:03:04,720 --> 01:03:06,640
Speaker 1: interesting to me because I thought that he would want

1322
01:03:06,720 --> 01:03:09,880
Speaker 1: to get out there and play with these guys during

1323
01:03:09,920 --> 01:03:12,920
Speaker 1: a live situation. And then defensively for the Seahawks, we

1324
01:03:13,000 --> 01:03:15,280
Speaker 1: didn't see all the dogs out there. We didn't see Quandre,

1325
01:03:15,400 --> 01:03:18,440
Speaker 1: we didn't see Jamal, we didn't see Jordan at all.

1326
01:03:19,920 --> 01:03:23,200
Speaker 1: Now we saw Cody a little bit, we saw a

1327
01:03:23,280 --> 01:03:25,160
Speaker 1: Chin a little bit, But the guys that you were

1328
01:03:25,200 --> 01:03:27,280
Speaker 1: talking about up the middle, we didn't see a lot

1329
01:03:27,320 --> 01:03:29,560
Speaker 1: of those guys. So and then one of the concerns

1330
01:03:29,600 --> 01:03:32,120
Speaker 1: with the Seahawks was they're tackling right. And then I

1331
01:03:32,200 --> 01:03:34,560
Speaker 1: had to remind people, like, all right, well, this is

1332
01:03:34,560 --> 01:03:36,360
Speaker 1: a preseason game. Lots of twos and threes out there.

1333
01:03:36,400 --> 01:03:37,720
Speaker 1: The guys that you were going to rely on to

1334
01:03:37,800 --> 01:03:39,800
Speaker 1: make these tackles haven't been getting a lot of these reps.

1335
01:03:39,840 --> 01:03:42,440
Speaker 1: So let's wait and see what happens. But that's the

1336
01:03:42,480 --> 01:03:45,600
Speaker 1: beauty of Week one, especially in this situation. You got

1337
01:03:45,840 --> 01:03:48,480
Speaker 1: former Broncos over here with the Seahawks. Now when Noah

1338
01:03:48,560 --> 01:03:50,960
Speaker 1: Fan and Shelby Harris and Drew Locks, we're probably not

1339
01:03:51,040 --> 01:03:53,200
Speaker 1: gonna see. And then you have the greatest quarterback the

1340
01:03:53,280 --> 01:03:56,240
Speaker 1: Hawks have ever seen with the Broncos. So there's just

1341
01:03:56,800 --> 01:04:00,680
Speaker 1: it's just chaos, right, pre game chaos. I'm interested if

1342
01:04:00,720 --> 01:04:03,640
Speaker 1: the crowd how loud they bow or cheer for Russell Wilson.

1343
01:04:03,800 --> 01:04:06,160
Speaker 1: Does Russell even acknowledge the crowd? You know what I mean?

1344
01:04:06,280 --> 01:04:09,600
Speaker 1: Like there's little things within the game that I want

1345
01:04:09,640 --> 01:04:12,640
Speaker 1: to see playout. Yeah, I think it would be fun.

1346
01:04:12,720 --> 01:04:15,600
Speaker 1: And you're right about the tackling. I remember going to

1347
01:04:15,680 --> 01:04:18,120
Speaker 1: a Laker game when I was a kid and I

1348
01:04:18,240 --> 01:04:21,480
Speaker 1: was watching the Lakers and the other team in warmups.

1349
01:04:21,840 --> 01:04:23,240
Speaker 1: My dad goes, who do you think is gonna win?

1350
01:04:23,280 --> 01:04:25,720
Speaker 1: And I'm watching the Lakers and they're just bricking everything,

1351
01:04:25,800 --> 01:04:28,720
Speaker 1: you know, just warmups I got the other team to have.

1352
01:04:28,800 --> 01:04:30,120
Speaker 1: There's no way, I mean, we can't make a shot

1353
01:04:30,160 --> 01:04:33,240
Speaker 1: because Son, all the starters are just sitting behind right now,

1354
01:04:33,320 --> 01:04:35,480
Speaker 1: the backups are throwing and they're not You're right, they're

1355
01:04:35,520 --> 01:04:37,800
Speaker 1: not making them. And that's kind of like preseason. I mean,

1356
01:04:37,920 --> 01:04:39,960
Speaker 1: it was who are the guys that were missing tackles,

1357
01:04:40,240 --> 01:04:41,840
Speaker 1: and you know one of them was Marquis Blair and

1358
01:04:41,880 --> 01:04:45,480
Speaker 1: he's not here anymore. So the Seahawks aren't messing around again.

1359
01:04:45,840 --> 01:04:48,520
Speaker 1: We have talent. I just can we bring it together.

1360
01:04:48,720 --> 01:04:52,520
Speaker 1: That opener Denver's in the same boat. I mean, they

1361
01:04:52,600 --> 01:04:55,120
Speaker 1: got they don't know what to expect. They have higher

1362
01:04:55,200 --> 01:04:58,640
Speaker 1: expectations because of Russell Wilson. But I think we know

1363
01:04:58,800 --> 01:05:01,800
Speaker 1: his kryptonite, right, I mean, we know his Achilles heel,

1364
01:05:02,200 --> 01:05:03,720
Speaker 1: and I think you've got to force him to do

1365
01:05:03,880 --> 01:05:06,280
Speaker 1: things that he's uncomfortable with, and that's dank and dunk.

1366
01:05:06,800 --> 01:05:08,560
Speaker 1: And I think we're gonna be able to get some

1367
01:05:08,600 --> 01:05:10,479
Speaker 1: pressure on him because I think we got some dogs

1368
01:05:10,520 --> 01:05:13,640
Speaker 1: and can get after him. Clint Hurt first official game

1369
01:05:14,000 --> 01:05:17,160
Speaker 1: as a defensive coordinator, he got his big wet a

1370
01:05:17,200 --> 01:05:20,200
Speaker 1: little bit, you know, with the preseason, but nothing like

1371
01:05:20,360 --> 01:05:23,680
Speaker 1: calling the game where it really matters. Right. Defensively, during

1372
01:05:23,680 --> 01:05:25,920
Speaker 1: a preseason game, you can get beat and his coaching

1373
01:05:26,000 --> 01:05:27,240
Speaker 1: will be like, Okay, this is what we're gonna do.

1374
01:05:27,240 --> 01:05:30,480
Speaker 1: We're gonna fix that. Now. You get beat defensively all

1375
01:05:30,520 --> 01:05:33,200
Speaker 1: Monday night. Football man that headset and might want to

1376
01:05:33,240 --> 01:05:35,080
Speaker 1: come off, he might want to slam it down. You know,

1377
01:05:35,160 --> 01:05:38,360
Speaker 1: I'm interested to see how he conducts himself in just

1378
01:05:38,640 --> 01:05:41,040
Speaker 1: throughout a football game. I think he's gonna be fine.

1379
01:05:41,080 --> 01:05:44,760
Speaker 1: He's confident in himself and knows what he wants. I

1380
01:05:44,840 --> 01:05:47,120
Speaker 1: didn't know. I knew he was a good could I said, no,

1381
01:05:47,160 --> 01:05:50,720
Speaker 1: he knew as much about past defense and his philosophy

1382
01:05:50,760 --> 01:05:54,040
Speaker 1: along the way. I'm gonna throw an unsung hero in

1383
01:05:54,160 --> 01:05:56,280
Speaker 1: this game. I think has a chance to be really

1384
01:05:56,360 --> 01:05:59,120
Speaker 1: interesting for us when we get in third down and

1385
01:05:59,160 --> 01:06:01,440
Speaker 1: passing situation. Since we're gonna have some edge rushers. We

1386
01:06:01,480 --> 01:06:03,880
Speaker 1: know one of them is gonna be Daryl Taylor. You'll

1387
01:06:03,880 --> 01:06:06,080
Speaker 1: be a couple other guys, you know. Along we'll see

1388
01:06:06,080 --> 01:06:09,960
Speaker 1: if a boy is actually get some playing time too.

1389
01:06:10,440 --> 01:06:13,400
Speaker 1: But you put the two inside guys, give me Punaford

1390
01:06:14,080 --> 01:06:17,360
Speaker 1: and put me Miles Adams. Yes, Miles Adams is my

1391
01:06:17,480 --> 01:06:21,280
Speaker 1: unsung hero. Key. He had the best preseason of anybody

1392
01:06:21,520 --> 01:06:24,439
Speaker 1: by to me a long shot, both in the run game.

1393
01:06:24,760 --> 01:06:27,200
Speaker 1: But man, he's got some wiggle in the pass game.

1394
01:06:27,400 --> 01:06:29,200
Speaker 1: And so that's something we've kind of missed, is that

1395
01:06:29,360 --> 01:06:31,880
Speaker 1: up the middle pressure. And so now we got some

1396
01:06:32,000 --> 01:06:34,000
Speaker 1: dogs coming from the outside. I'm gonna use dogs a

1397
01:06:34,040 --> 01:06:36,560
Speaker 1: bunch because we have them. I mean, you can't when

1398
01:06:36,600 --> 01:06:38,800
Speaker 1: I am talking about Jamal Adams yet not even talking

1399
01:06:38,840 --> 01:06:43,280
Speaker 1: about Brooks. Jordan. Man, Jordan can play. So I'm excited

1400
01:06:43,280 --> 01:06:45,320
Speaker 1: to see what we do offensively. Me too, And I'm

1401
01:06:45,320 --> 01:06:48,479
