What's on tap? What's on Tap? Division rival 14 00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,920 Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals coming into this week eighteam matchup with an 15 00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:59,240 Speaker 1: eleven and five record, started the season ten and two 16 00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:02,200 Speaker 1: before three and losing streak, dropping games to the Rams, 17 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:05,160 Speaker 1: the Detroit Lions, and the Indianapolis Colts. But they got 18 00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:08,880 Speaker 1: a big win against the Cowboys last week, and bump 19 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:10,680 Speaker 1: I don't really know what it is about at and 20 00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:13,840 Speaker 1: T Stadium there in Dallas, But Kyler Murray needs to 21 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:16,759 Speaker 1: submit for some part ownership or something, because that man 22 00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 1: does not lose there. Five and oh is a high 23 00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 1: school er, two and oh in college. Two and on 24 00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,679 Speaker 1: in the NFL, as the Cardinals went down there beat 25 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 1: the Cowboys twenty five to twenty two snap in that 26 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:29,240 Speaker 1: three game losing streak, a much much needed win as 27 00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:32,399 Speaker 1: they get ready for the playoffs next week. You know. 28 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 1: And as of now, the Cowboys Cardinals they both held 29 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:37,559 Speaker 1: the fourth and fifth seed in the NFC playoffs, meaning 30 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,680 Speaker 1: this could be a rematch next week, so it'll be interesting. 31 00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:43,400 Speaker 1: But let's dive into that matchup. Cardinals are control for 32 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:45,520 Speaker 1: most of the game. They're beating the Cowboys twenty two 33 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 1: to seven heading into the fourth quarter. However, Dak Prescott 34 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 1: got things going with two fourth quarter touchdown passes, bringing 35 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:54,560 Speaker 1: in the game to within three points at twenty five 36 00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 1: to twenty two with five minutes remaining in the game. 37 00:01:57,560 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 1: After Dallas use your final time out to fifty one 38 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 1: and Chase Edmonds ran the ball, lost it at the 39 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 1: six yard line but was ruled down, which was a 40 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 1: clear recovery by the Cowboys, but since the Cowboys were 41 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 1: out of timeouts, they couldn't challenge it, even though replay 42 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 1: made it pretty clear that the call should have been overturned. 43 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:17,919 Speaker 1: As a result, Murray finished a turnover free showing which 44 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:21,519 Speaker 1: is pretty good considering that Cowboys lead the league in takeaways, 45 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 1: and they were able to run out the remaining clock. 46 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 1: And honestly, the Cowboys had a legit right but earlier 47 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:29,799 Speaker 1: in the game they had to burn a timeout when 48 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,600 Speaker 1: the Cardinals came out from triggeration brought out Murray and 49 00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: their kicker on the fourth down, caused massive confusion. Cowboys 50 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 1: defense had to call a timeout. Obviously that came back 51 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 1: to Biden because I think they would have got the 52 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:42,639 Speaker 1: ball back with you know, a minute or so left, 53 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 1: have a chance to win the game. It's not how 54 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 1: it went. They lost the game offensively. Colin Murray had 55 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 1: a pretty good day twenty six of thirty eight two 56 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:54,359 Speaker 1: sixty three, two touchdowns, zero interceptions, also had nine carries 57 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:57,800 Speaker 1: for forty four yards. Chase Edmonds decent day and actually 58 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 1: not really got great eighteen carries fifty three yards. Christian 59 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 1: Kirk led all receivers with six reception in seventy nine yards, 60 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:09,239 Speaker 1: the og aj green three reception seventy four yards. Antoine Wesley, 61 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 1: a name that you haven't heard much about this season, 62 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:14,800 Speaker 1: had four receptions for thirty yards but did get two touchdowns. 63 00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:17,520 Speaker 1: So there's only one turnover in the game, which led 64 00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 1: to a Cardinals field goal, and the Cowboys couldn't get 65 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,120 Speaker 1: their own way. Penalize ten times for eighty eight yards 66 00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 1: and just went three of eleven on third down. Now, bump, 67 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 1: when we look at this head to head, man, I mean, 68 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:31,799 Speaker 1: it's Clearton favor for the eleven and five team versus 69 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 1: the six and ten Seahawks. But what are you seeing 70 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 1: from the numbers here? Let's look at these numbers. As 71 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 1: you know, the Cardinals are heading into the playoffs. There 72 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 1: are eleven and five, Your Hawks are six and ten. Offensively, 73 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals are the eighth ranked offense, averaging three hundred 74 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 1: and seventy seven yards per game. The Hawks are twenty third, 75 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 1: But you'll be seeing them slowly climb up in some 76 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 1: of these numbers. When you look at the Hawks rush 77 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 1: offensive Hawks are twelve, the Cardinals are ninth. Pass offensive 78 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 1: Hawks are twenty fifth. The Cardinals are eighth and points 79 00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 1: per game. The Hawks are averaging twenty two, which makes 80 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 1: them seventeenth and the Cardinals are averaging twenty six. Defensively, 81 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 1: Seahawks defense moving on up hey ring thirty if not 82 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 1: the bottom of the barrel anymore, all right, the Cardinals 83 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 1: are ring tenth. When it comes to rush defense, Cardinals 84 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,840 Speaker 1: are eleventh, the Hawks are eighteen. Pass defense Hawks or 85 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:18,479 Speaker 1: thirty first, Cardinals are eighth. And points allowed, the Cardinals 86 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:21,679 Speaker 1: are allowing twenty a game, averaging that makes a fifth 87 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 1: in the Hawks twenty one a game that puts him 88 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: at the tenth spot. There interceptions, the Hawks have eleven, 89 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:31,160 Speaker 1: Cardinals have twelve, and the turnover differential the Hawks are 90 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 1: plus six and the Cardinals are plus eleven. On paper, 91 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,280 Speaker 1: the Cardinals are supposed to get it done. I look 92 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,479 Speaker 1: at the roster, I see what they're capable up. It 93 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 1: makes me a bit scary. But you look at what 94 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 1: the Hawks did last week. That defense played well, offense 95 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:44,479 Speaker 1: put up fifty one. I don't care who it is 96 00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 1: you take fifty one, but yeah, it should be a bottom. 97 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:50,279 Speaker 1: And this team to have a weird history. Man, this 98 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,480 Speaker 1: record is interesting. I saw you put down the record 99 00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 1: of this series. Nas and I laughed to myself, here 100 00:04:55,240 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 1: you go, get to know this history, No, your history, Well, 101 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 1: it doesn't get more even as you could possibly be. 102 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 1: Between the Seahawks and the Cardinals all time series is 103 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:08,479 Speaker 1: tied at twenty two twenty two and one. So not 104 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:10,920 Speaker 1: only the tide in the lost column and the wind Colin, 105 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 1: they also had that tie back in twenty sixteen in 106 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 1: games dating back to nineteen seventy six. What happened the 107 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 1: last time the Cardinals came into Luminfield beat the Seahawks 108 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:23,000 Speaker 1: twenty three to thirteen. This was Russell Wilson's just his 109 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,840 Speaker 1: second game back from injury, and before the game we 110 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 1: were feeling good man. Colin Murray was out. You know, 111 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 1: we're in that point where the Seahawks is needed to 112 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 1: get one of those two games to kind of get 113 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 1: back in the playoff race. DeAndre Hopkins was out. But 114 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 1: this dude called McCoy man came into Loumfield, had himself 115 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,480 Speaker 1: a day thirty five or forty four, three, twenty eight, 116 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 1: two touchdowns, no picks. Second time Colin McCoy in the 117 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 1: last two years to come into Umfield left with a victory. 118 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,920 Speaker 1: It was pretty balanced for the Cardinals. Nobody went off. 119 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:56,360 Speaker 1: Eric's had eighty eight yards, green At seventy eight yards, 120 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 1: Ronda and Morrell had eleven receptions. Seven Cardinals had at 121 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: least one reception. And honestly, the game came down to 122 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:08,039 Speaker 1: really for me, the Seahawks lack of offense. But defensively 123 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 1: they played okay for the Seahawks, but they could not 124 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:12,840 Speaker 1: get off the field when it counted. They gave up 125 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 1: four really long drives sixteen play sixty eight yards, thirteen 126 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:21,680 Speaker 1: plays ninety two yards, fourteen plays sixty seven yards, ten 127 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:25,920 Speaker 1: plays sixty four yards. Cardinals dominated time vest possession. They 128 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:29,159 Speaker 1: were seven or fourteen on third down they ran seventy 129 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,039 Speaker 1: nine plays. The Seahawks ran just forty nine. I believe 130 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 1: that's a season low. And then you just look at 131 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 1: the offensive drive chart. I mean, the Seahawks were punt punt, 132 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 1: field goal, field goal, punt, punt, punt, touchdown downs, end 133 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 1: of game. And you know, despite all that, the Seahawks 134 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 1: d J. Dallas gets in the end zone, making the 135 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:51,599 Speaker 1: score sixteen to thirteen with seven h five in the 136 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 1: fourth quarter. However, the Seahawks were unable to get a 137 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 1: stop on the next drive, giving up a ten play 138 00:06:56,560 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 1: sixty four yard drive ending in a James Conner touch down. Now, 139 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:04,040 Speaker 1: the Seahawks are playing a lot better than they were 140 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:06,920 Speaker 1: at that time in the season. Offensively, there were no 141 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:11,080 Speaker 1: kind of rhythm. Defensively, they were doing okam the scoreboard, 142 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:13,559 Speaker 1: but giving up tons of yards and not really getting 143 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 1: off the field. Also, if you remember, that was the game, 144 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:18,120 Speaker 1: the Seahawks lost Trey Brown for the rest of the season, 145 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 1: so it wasn't a great day leuin Field. You know, 146 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 1: I'm expecting a much different matchup this week. Obviously, Colin Murray, 147 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 1: it's back for the Cardinals. The Seahawks are playing better 148 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 1: on both sides of the football, so it should be 149 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 1: an interesting matchup as Obviously, the Cardinals have a lot 150 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:34,240 Speaker 1: to play for Seahawks hoping to spoil that heading into 151 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 1: Week eighteen. But while we're talking about the Cardinals, let's 152 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 1: take a look around the NFC West. What's the Word 153 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 1: and the Seahawks were the NFC West champs again What's 154 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 1: the Word in the West? On Hot Talk last week 155 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 1: of the regular Stephen in the NFL and the Rams 156 00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 1: are sitting on top of the division, twelve and four 157 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 1: behind them, the Arizona Cars eleven and five, nine ers 158 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 1: nine and seven in Seattle. One more game, they're six 159 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:07,120 Speaker 1: and ten, trying to make that seven and ten. This 160 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 1: past weekend, the Rams sick on the Ravens. It was 161 00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:14,680 Speaker 1: their fifth straight victory, getting closer to an NFC West titled. 162 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 1: Their first is twenty eighteen. That year they went to 163 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:19,720 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl. And we talked about this last week, 164 00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: but it seems like when Matthew Stafford turns the ball over, 165 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 1: he does it in bunches, and not just one, not 166 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 1: just two. He usually throws three of them things out there, 167 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 1: and that's what he did against The Rams had to 168 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:32,320 Speaker 1: overcome three turnovers from Stafford. He finished the day twenty 169 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:34,679 Speaker 1: six to thirty five, three hundred and nine, two touchdowns, 170 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:38,720 Speaker 1: two interceptions, and one fumble. The Rams were trailing going 171 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 1: into the fourth quarter sixteen to seven despite the three tonovers, 172 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 1: but Stafford did lead the Rams on a game winning 173 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:48,200 Speaker 1: nine place, seventy five yard drive ending with an Odell 174 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 1: Beckham touchdown with fifty seven seconds left into the game. 175 00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 1: He can turn that ball over, but he will still 176 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:55,960 Speaker 1: drive you down to win ball games. I believe that 177 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:58,440 Speaker 1: last drive right there. Tis Russell Wilson now for the 178 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 1: most comeback when he drives in fourth quarter in overtime. 179 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:05,760 Speaker 1: Since twenty twelve, Sony Michelle had a decent day seventy 180 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,679 Speaker 1: four yards or nineteen carries. Cooper Cup does what he does, 181 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:11,719 Speaker 1: six receptions, ninety five yards, one touchdown. Cup is down 182 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:13,959 Speaker 1: one hundred and thirty six yards away from setting the 183 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 1: NFL record for receptions yards in a season with one thousand, 184 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 1: nine hundred and sixty four, a record held by Calvin Johnson, 185 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:24,600 Speaker 1: who was also catching passes from Matthew Stafford. What I 186 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 1: like about Cup though he killed all the noise. He goes, look, man, 187 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:30,560 Speaker 1: I'm doing it in seventeen games. It doesn't really count. 188 00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:32,600 Speaker 1: I'll take it, but it doesn't really count. That's the 189 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 1: way to go. If I'm him, I'm saying that allowed. 190 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 1: But in private, that's my records. Son. If I break 191 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,959 Speaker 1: the record, I don't care. Well, yeah, we're new the 192 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 1: record books, so it's gonna say you're number one. No 193 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 1: one's gonna look. No one cares about that anymore. We 194 00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 1: used to play fourteen games. You think all those guys 195 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 1: back in the seventies are beefing because all the records 196 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,960 Speaker 1: got smashed. Now people will forget man now by when 197 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 1: he's like forty five fifty years old. People ain't gonna 198 00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:56,559 Speaker 1: care about that. The Rounds are taking all the nine 199 00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 1: ers next week for the NFC West Crown. I know 200 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,360 Speaker 1: you're not chairman for somebody during that game, mask, because 201 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 1: that's not what we do here in Seattle. But which 202 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 1: team do you want to win that game? You have 203 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:10,199 Speaker 1: to pick one team? Who, now, who you're rooting for, 204 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 1: but who you betting on? I mean, shoot, it's impossible 205 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:18,080 Speaker 1: for both of them to lose. I mean, I guess 206 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 1: they could tie. So if I'm rooting for anything, I'm 207 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 1: rooting for a tie. But man, that's that's that's that's hard. 208 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 1: I mean, I think, I guess I can't say a 209 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:31,840 Speaker 1: good thing about either or. I mean, thing's gonna win, 210 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:33,200 Speaker 1: not who you wants. What are you think is gonna 211 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 1: win that game? The Rams are gonna win? I think 212 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:36,520 Speaker 1: I think the Rams are playing good football. I think 213 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:38,680 Speaker 1: the Niners. There's a lot of questions with Jimmy G 214 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:42,440 Speaker 1: Trey Lances, if Jimmy G gonna come back. The Niners 215 00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:44,440 Speaker 1: need to get into the playoffs. They need to if 216 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 1: they win their end. If they lose, they need the 217 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:49,880 Speaker 1: Saints to lose to the falcon so they have everything 218 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:52,680 Speaker 1: to play for. But fort and Niners are gonna be hungrier, 219 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 1: I think in that sense. But I think the Rams 220 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:56,720 Speaker 1: are a better football team. But while we're talking about 221 00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,680 Speaker 1: the forty nine ers, they handled the Texans last week, 222 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 1: No so prize. Texans are a bad football team, beating 223 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 1: him twenty three to seven. Jimmy g didn't play, so 224 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,200 Speaker 1: rookie Trey Lance got his first start since Week five. 225 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:10,080 Speaker 1: He overcame an early interception, had a pretty solid day 226 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:13,320 Speaker 1: sixteen or twenty three two hundred forty nine yards, two touchdowns. 227 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:16,880 Speaker 1: Also had eight carries for thirty one yards. Elijah Mitchell 228 00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 1: great game on the ground hundred nineteen yards on twenty 229 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 1: one carries. Also two receptions eleven yards in one touchdown. 230 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:26,720 Speaker 1: Brandon Ayuke Deebo Samuel, kind of guys that do most 231 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:29,319 Speaker 1: damage through the air for them, had combined for seven 232 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 1: receptions one hundred and fifty seven yards in one touchdown. 233 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 1: The biggest play was a forty five yard touchdown passa 234 00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:37,880 Speaker 1: Deebo Samuel gave the forty nine ers seventeen to seven lead. 235 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 1: Nine Ers score twenty unanswered points and second half after 236 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:44,320 Speaker 1: trailing seven to three, Fred Warner does what he does 237 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 1: fifteen tackles one TfL. Now, like I mentioned a second ago, 238 00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 1: Rams or the forty nine Ers are opening. Get Jimmy 239 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 1: g back for the season finale against the Rams on Sunday, 240 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:58,720 Speaker 1: And you know, Jimmy, it's it's such a weird. If 241 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:00,040 Speaker 1: I'm a nine Ers fan, I don't know how I 242 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 1: feel about that whole situation. Right, Jimmy does enough. He 243 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 1: has shown you who he is and what he's capable of. 244 00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 1: His ceiling is like a Tier two, Tier three quarterback 245 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 1: who's usually not gonna kill you, but he's not gonna 246 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 1: make the crazy play. He's gonna throw for a decent 247 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 1: percentage all that. Trey Lance is a guy of the future, 248 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,440 Speaker 1: but still don't know what he has there. So it'll 249 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:23,679 Speaker 1: be interesting to see how those guys move forward after 250 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 1: this year. Current playoff standings, I'll just say this quickly. 251 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 1: The Packers thirteen and three lockdown the number one seed, 252 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:33,920 Speaker 1: Rams and twelve and four, Bucks, twelve and four, Cowboys 253 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 1: eleven and five, Cardinals eleven and five, nine, Ers, nine 254 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 1: and seven, Eagles nine and seven, Saints eight and night 255 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 1: and then the Seahawks at six and ten Saints the 256 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:46,439 Speaker 1: only team still in the hunt. However, two through seven 257 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:49,080 Speaker 1: is not solidified in terms of seeding, so still ought 258 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 1: to play for this Sunday and I ment you this. 259 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:54,520 Speaker 1: I mentioned this to you off air before we started. 260 00:12:55,080 --> 00:13:00,559 Speaker 1: It is so frustrating that if the Seahawks would just 261 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:03,559 Speaker 1: have not blown at twenty four to sixth lead against 262 00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:06,480 Speaker 1: the Titans, who are obviously a great team, all of 263 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:08,199 Speaker 1: a sudden, there the number one seed. We talked about 264 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:09,520 Speaker 1: this earlier in the year that we're gonna look back 265 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:11,959 Speaker 1: at that game and not feel as bad about it. Man, 266 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:13,560 Speaker 1: I still feel bad about it. You're at twenty four 267 00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:15,680 Speaker 1: to six at home, and then if you just beat 268 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:18,840 Speaker 1: the Bears, you'll beat them twenty four to fourteen. As 269 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:21,160 Speaker 1: of last week. You do those two things, I'm not 270 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:23,720 Speaker 1: even counting the overtime loss to the Stealers. I'm not 271 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,480 Speaker 1: counting the loss to the Saints with two miss field goals. 272 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:29,840 Speaker 1: I'm not counting being up seventeen to seven against the Vikings. 273 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:32,319 Speaker 1: I'm not counting. I mean, the list goes on and 274 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:34,200 Speaker 1: on and on and on. But if you just handle 275 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 1: those two games this weekend, if the Seahawks were to 276 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:40,600 Speaker 1: win and the Saints were to lose, the Seahawks would 277 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:44,839 Speaker 1: be going to the playoffs because they've beaten the Niners twice. 278 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 1: The only team they had a tiebreaker on was the Niners. 279 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:49,559 Speaker 1: So in that sense, the Seahawks would have finished the 280 00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:51,720 Speaker 1: year nine and eight, the forty nine Ers would have 281 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 1: been nine and eight, the Saints would have been eight 282 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 1: and nine, and then to cap it off bump, all 283 00:13:57,559 --> 00:13:59,840 Speaker 1: four NFC West teams would have been in the playoffs. 284 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 1: But I digress was not meant to be. Didn't happen, 285 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 1: so I can. I'll shut up about it. I'm still bitter, obviously, 286 00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:14,680 Speaker 1: but un happier. Now, let's get back into this matchup 287 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:20,840 Speaker 1: with the Arizona Cardinals. Man up, who is this missus? 288 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 1: Man up? On Hawk Talk? All right, let's look at 289 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:32,000 Speaker 1: some of these matchups. You gotta look at the quarterback 290 00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:35,280 Speaker 1: for the Arizona car Kyler Murray versus Seahawks defense. On 291 00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:37,360 Speaker 1: the year, he has thrown for three thousand and five 292 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 1: hundred forty seven yards, twenty three touchdowns, and ten interceptions. 293 00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 1: He also has eighty three carries for three hundred and 294 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,960 Speaker 1: eighty eight yards and five touchdowns. The last sign to 295 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 1: Hawks played their Zona cardinalsal was Culton McCoy in for 296 00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray. He had himself a day thirty five or 297 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 1: forty four, three hundred twenty eight yards and two touchdowns, 298 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:58,880 Speaker 1: no interceptions. Now the last two weeks Murray has one 299 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:02,280 Speaker 1: hundred and eighteen yards some thirteen carries, which has been great, 300 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 1: but overall his number dawn. We were used to this 301 00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:07,320 Speaker 1: guy getting active and going everywhere. Last year he averaged 302 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 1: six yards to carry, eight hundred nineteen total yards and 303 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:13,440 Speaker 1: eleven touchdowns. In twenty twenty one, he's around four and 304 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:16,800 Speaker 1: a half five yards per rush and his attempts are 305 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:20,640 Speaker 1: down two carries per game. Murray has five interceptions in 306 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:22,680 Speaker 1: the cardinalslasses, so that means you gotta gave him to 307 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 1: turn the ball over. Murray has also fumbled the ball 308 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:28,800 Speaker 1: thirteen times in season, but somehow they have not lost 309 00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 1: any of them. That's the luckiest team in the league 310 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:32,680 Speaker 1: right now. I don't think I've ever seen a stat 311 00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:34,280 Speaker 1: like that. Now, I didn't even I didn't believe it. 312 00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:36,280 Speaker 1: I looked it up by check Pro Football Reference. I 313 00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:38,840 Speaker 1: cross checking him, like this is this Dude's fumbles the 314 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:40,600 Speaker 1: ball all the time, almost once a game and he 315 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 1: hasn't lost one of them. Are you kidding me? He 316 00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 1: gets the lucky bounced every time. That's crazy to me. Thirteen. 317 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:48,560 Speaker 1: I don't think that's gonna be broken for a very 318 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 1: long time. Thirteen of those things, all right. Last week 319 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:53,680 Speaker 1: was a big statement for Murray though. Man, he got 320 00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:55,560 Speaker 1: a huge win. He went down to Dallas and got 321 00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 1: it done. We've been waiting on a signature win for 322 00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 1: Kyle Murray. That's probably his signature wins so far. But 323 00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 1: they have to get in the playoffs and do what 324 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:04,560 Speaker 1: they have to do. Now. The Seahawks will be facing 325 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 1: a much bigger challenge with dual thread Kyler Murray. He 326 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 1: saw Tim Boyles one week, he saw Nick Foles the 327 00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:12,280 Speaker 1: other week, and it ain't gonna be like that. This 328 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 1: guy's gonna be able to get outside the pocket and 329 00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 1: throw the football and extend plays. The Seahawks are thirtieth 330 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:20,360 Speaker 1: in total defense, thirty first against the past. The Seahawks 331 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:24,040 Speaker 1: defense has had the second most passes attempted against them 332 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 1: in the NFL six hundred nineteen. That means no respect. 333 00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:28,200 Speaker 1: They're gonna try to throw it up. Let's see what 334 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:31,120 Speaker 1: Colin Murray does yeah, and it also means they've been 335 00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:34,480 Speaker 1: on the field a whole lot more than everybody else, 336 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 1: so it'll be they'll have their hands full. It was 337 00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 1: Colin Murray for sure, one of the better young quarterbacks 338 00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 1: in the National Football League. Wants flip it over to 339 00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:45,760 Speaker 1: our quarterback number three, Russell Wilson created a career for 340 00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray because of his success in the skill set 341 00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 1: and the size and the baseball comparisons all that. So 342 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 1: Russell on the year twenty two hundred forty four three 343 00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:58,240 Speaker 1: seventy four two thy eight hundred seventy five yards, twenty 344 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 1: two touchdowns in five interception, which is crazy to me 345 00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 1: still when you see twenty two to five when we 346 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:06,680 Speaker 1: think about the season Russell's had, and it's nowhere near 347 00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:09,879 Speaker 1: the MVPC type season he's had throughout his career. But 348 00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:13,200 Speaker 1: he's still doing some good things with the football. Last game, though, 349 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,359 Speaker 1: against the Cardinals, really struggled, going fourteen of twenty six 350 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:20,840 Speaker 1: for two oh seven, no touchdowns, no interceptions, only completed 351 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:23,560 Speaker 1: fifty three percent of his passes. Now, out of one 352 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:27,320 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty seven regular season games, he's only had 353 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:30,920 Speaker 1: twenty games with a lower completion percentage, so that kind 354 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,360 Speaker 1: of shows you how the game went last last time 355 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:36,199 Speaker 1: these two teams played, Russell got sacked four times, was 356 00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:38,280 Speaker 1: hit six times, and the Seahawks will just two of 357 00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 1: ten on third down. Now it's back the last week. 358 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 1: Great game last week twenty twenty nine, two hundred and 359 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 1: thirty six yards, four touchdowns, no interceptions. Russell was incredibly 360 00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:49,160 Speaker 1: accurate last week. There was a rhythm he'd be able 361 00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:51,879 Speaker 1: to find DK metcalf with the exception that first you 362 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:53,920 Speaker 1: know series of the game. The Seahawks scored on nine 363 00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:56,800 Speaker 1: consecutive possessions, so they had that thing rolling last week. 364 00:17:57,480 --> 00:17:59,639 Speaker 1: And they're playing a pretty good defense. Cardinals number ten 365 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 1: in total defense, given up three twenty two per game, 366 00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:05,120 Speaker 1: their eighth against the past, so I mean, just two 367 00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:07,439 Speaker 1: hundred and thirteen yards per game and eleventh in the 368 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:10,480 Speaker 1: NFL with sacks with forty as a team. As we know, 369 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 1: Chandler Jones has made his head against the Seahawks specifically, 370 00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:16,359 Speaker 1: so he's a guy that you got to look out for. Obviously, 371 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:18,960 Speaker 1: JJ Watt was banged up and gone earlier in the year, 372 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 1: so they do pretty good on that side of the football. 373 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 1: So the Seahawks will definitely need to play one of 374 00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:25,280 Speaker 1: their better games similar to last week, to have a 375 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:29,880 Speaker 1: chance to do anything offensively. We gotta go into the backfield. 376 00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,119 Speaker 1: We'll see if these two guys are available. Chase Evans 377 00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:34,159 Speaker 1: and James Connor are both fighting some injuries, but if 378 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:36,480 Speaker 1: they are available, these are two guys that they have 379 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:40,000 Speaker 1: to really pay attention to. James Connor prob Babowl running back. 380 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 1: He has seven hundred yards fourteen touchdowns on the ground, 381 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:45,679 Speaker 1: thirty one receptions, three hundred and thirty four yards, and 382 00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:48,959 Speaker 1: two touchdowns through the air sixteen total this season. If 383 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:51,480 Speaker 1: he's on your fantasy team, you're probably made it to 384 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:54,560 Speaker 1: a lease to semifinals. A last game against the Hawks, 385 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:57,080 Speaker 1: he had ninety nine to yards and one touchdown, twenty 386 00:18:57,080 --> 00:18:59,640 Speaker 1: wayris for sixty two yards and one touchdown and five 387 00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:02,879 Speaker 1: reception for thirty seven. Chase Advans, who has also been 388 00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 1: a great addition to this team. He missed the first matchup, 389 00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:08,000 Speaker 1: but on the season he has one hundred and sixteen carries, 390 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:11,119 Speaker 1: five hundred ninety two yards, two hdowns, forty three receptions 391 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 1: for three hundred and eleven yards. If these two guys 392 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:17,640 Speaker 1: are available, even if one of them plays. It's gonna 393 00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:19,960 Speaker 1: be a problem. If both of these guys are available, 394 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:23,000 Speaker 1: those linebackers and those safeties are gonna have a heck 395 00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 1: of a day trying to pick these guys about the backfield, 396 00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:28,960 Speaker 1: getting downhill and tackle. This is a great one two 397 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:31,440 Speaker 1: combo they have in the backfield, no question about it. 398 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:33,080 Speaker 1: And I think this is gonna test as Seahawks. You 399 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 1: mentioned the linebackers. Bobby Wagner, We'll see what his status 400 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 1: is going into Sunday. Obviously didn't look great. Pete Carroll 401 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:41,639 Speaker 1: said it was not as serious as they thought. We 402 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:43,639 Speaker 1: don't know his status as of now, but if he 403 00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 1: is not playing, the young guys are gonna have to shine. 404 00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:48,320 Speaker 1: Jordan Brooks has been playing lights out this year. In 405 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:50,639 Speaker 1: Cody Barton, huge game for him, just to show what 406 00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:52,840 Speaker 1: he can do. Played well last week and if these 407 00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:54,639 Speaker 1: two dudes are playing, he's gonna need to make a 408 00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:56,920 Speaker 1: lot of plays in the backfield for the Seahawks to 409 00:19:57,119 --> 00:20:00,719 Speaker 1: be successful on defense. And Bumble's talk about this seving corps. 410 00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:03,119 Speaker 1: Cardinals have one of the better receiving corps in the 411 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,399 Speaker 1: NFL when they're healthy, but they are without DeAndre Hopkins. 412 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 1: Who's missed the last six games or he missed six 413 00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:10,960 Speaker 1: games total this season, in the last three after being 414 00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:13,600 Speaker 1: placed on ir with an MCL injury that required surgery. 415 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:16,200 Speaker 1: Cardinals hoping to get him back at some point in 416 00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:18,480 Speaker 1: the postseason, probably needed to go on a deep run 417 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:20,879 Speaker 1: for that to happen. But even without Hopkins, they got 418 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:25,159 Speaker 1: some explosive guys. Christian Kirk had a breakout season for 419 00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 1: him seventy five receptions nine hundred and thirty nine yards, 420 00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:32,600 Speaker 1: five touchdowns. AJ Green solid year as well, fifty receptions 421 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 1: eight hundred twenty five yards, three touchdowns. Rondel Moore, who 422 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 1: had was really active against Seahawks in the first game, 423 00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:41,680 Speaker 1: fifty four receptions on the year, four hundred and thirty 424 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 1: five yards, one touchdown. He has missed the last two 425 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 1: games with an ankle injury, so we'll see if he's 426 00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:49,639 Speaker 1: out there. And Antoine Leslie, who kind of showed up 427 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:51,400 Speaker 1: in the box swore last week. On the year only 428 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:54,040 Speaker 1: has seventeen receptions for one hundred and ninety one yards 429 00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 1: three touchdowns. Two of those came last week. Now, defensively, 430 00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:00,719 Speaker 1: the Seahawks, we talked about this on the last podcast, 431 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,440 Speaker 1: have been crushed at the cornerback position. You know, whether 432 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:06,920 Speaker 1: it's been it's been a revolving door. DJ Reid, Sidney Jones, 433 00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:09,440 Speaker 1: Bless Austin the ball but on the COVID list. John 434 00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:12,320 Speaker 1: Reid suffered a concussion last week. Michael Jackson came fresh 435 00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:15,080 Speaker 1: off the practice squad, played forty percent of the snaps. 436 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 1: You know, the Seahawks of a loss Trey Brown earlier 437 00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:21,040 Speaker 1: in the year. They've had all these different guys playing. 438 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:24,080 Speaker 1: DJ Reid did make because return to the lineup last week, 439 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:28,359 Speaker 1: played really well, tune receptions, three pass defended. Bless Austin 440 00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 1: was also able to come off the COVID list on Tuesday, 441 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 1: So hopefully they'll have a little bit more depth in 442 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:35,520 Speaker 1: the secondary because they're gonna need it against these guys. 443 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 1: Cardinals had the eighth best passing offense in the league. 444 00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:41,240 Speaker 1: The Seahawks struggle against the past thirty first in the 445 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:44,320 Speaker 1: league and their twenty first in the NFL with eleven interception. 446 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 1: So we'll see. We'll see about these guys. DJ Reid 447 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:49,280 Speaker 1: is kind of held the water for the group when 448 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:51,760 Speaker 1: he's been out there playing really good football. Sidney Jones 449 00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,159 Speaker 1: was playing great football as of late. He obviously ended 450 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:55,560 Speaker 1: up on the COVID list, So we'll see if he 451 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:58,280 Speaker 1: comes back, but definitely gonna have to contain some of 452 00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 1: these good, big time playmaking receivers for the Cardinals explosive offense. 453 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:04,399 Speaker 1: But you know what the Hawks had, They got a 454 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:07,000 Speaker 1: running back. He's shown up the last three to four weeks. 455 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:11,159 Speaker 1: Rashod Penny versus Cardinals front seven. Last week, Rashot had 456 00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:14,320 Speaker 1: twenty five carries, one hundred and seventy yards, and two touchdowns, 457 00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:17,359 Speaker 1: career highs in both of those things. Penny had one 458 00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 1: hundred forty four rushing at halftime. At halftime, he had 459 00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 1: a buck forty four. That was the most rushing yards 460 00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:26,240 Speaker 1: in the first half in Seahawk history. The last four games, 461 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:29,960 Speaker 1: he had sixty nine carries and five touchdowns. On the year, 462 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:32,399 Speaker 1: he has ninety six carries, five hundred and fifty nine 463 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 1: yards and five touchdowns. He is playing his best football 464 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:38,960 Speaker 1: since college. Right. This is exactly what we wanted to 465 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:43,160 Speaker 1: see out of this guy. The last game against the Cardinals, 466 00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:45,119 Speaker 1: I believe he touched the ball the first play. If 467 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:46,480 Speaker 1: it wasn't the first play, it was the first and 468 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:51,160 Speaker 1: second play. First play. Boom Big Game eighteen yards. We're thinking, 469 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:53,359 Speaker 1: here we go, We're starting to see it, but then 470 00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:55,160 Speaker 1: he got injured on that play. He had one more 471 00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:58,560 Speaker 1: carry and then that was it for him. We just 472 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 1: got to see consistency. I've seen enough to be like, 473 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:04,040 Speaker 1: I want this guy on the roster next year. But 474 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,840 Speaker 1: if he can end this game on a high note, man, 475 00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:09,440 Speaker 1: the Hoskin look at this roster and say, we legit 476 00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:11,960 Speaker 1: have a number one and number two depended on Chris 477 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 1: Carson's health. But I'm rooting for the kid. Man. He 478 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:17,640 Speaker 1: looks healthy, he looks fast, he looks confident. Keep it rolling, Yeah, 479 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:19,399 Speaker 1: gotta love it. If he does this against the Cardinals, 480 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:21,159 Speaker 1: it'll be a big time statement because I think a 481 00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:23,399 Speaker 1: lot of the detractors will say, well, he did it 482 00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:27,240 Speaker 1: against the Texans, the Lions, and the Bears. Well, if 483 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:29,119 Speaker 1: he continue to do this against the Cardinals with a 484 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:31,760 Speaker 1: good rushing defense, it'll be a big time deal there 485 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 1: for the Seahawks. Now, these guys have been an every 486 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:36,639 Speaker 1: matchup all year long because they're that important of the 487 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 1: Seahawks offensively, and it's DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett. Last week, 488 00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:43,679 Speaker 1: Dk Metcalf was finally unlocked. Got to see some of 489 00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:45,880 Speaker 1: the things we've been hoping to see all season. Six 490 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:49,720 Speaker 1: receptions sixty three yards, three touchdowns, first multi touchdown games 491 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 1: since Halloween. Metcalf is ninety one yards away from back 492 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:55,399 Speaker 1: to back one thousand yards seasons, so hopefully he can 493 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:58,800 Speaker 1: get that on Sunday. On the year, seventy receptions, nine 494 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:02,960 Speaker 1: hundred nine yards, twelve touchdowns. Tyler Lockett obviously having the 495 00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:06,000 Speaker 1: best year of his career sixty eight receptions one thousand 496 00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:10,080 Speaker 1: and seven hundred one seventy seven yards, six touchdowns, set 497 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:12,919 Speaker 1: a career high in yards last week, and the Cardinals 498 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:14,960 Speaker 1: are good against the pass, and they're led by two 499 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:17,640 Speaker 1: dudes in the secondary. If you're from here, you're used 500 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:20,879 Speaker 1: to him former University of Washington standouts Booted Baker and 501 00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:24,440 Speaker 1: Byron Murphy junior Buddhists having a great year, got paid 502 00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:27,720 Speaker 1: all that money, and he's still bawling. Ninety five tackles, 503 00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:31,880 Speaker 1: two sacks, six TFLs, seven passes defended in three interceptions 504 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:34,840 Speaker 1: interceptions with a knock on him before he signed that contract, 505 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 1: so he's definitely making more place in the secondary. And 506 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:41,280 Speaker 1: Byron Murphy Junior sixty one tackles, twelve passes, defended, leading 507 00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:44,320 Speaker 1: the team four interceptions, one for stumbled at one touchdown, 508 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:46,600 Speaker 1: So those are those are their dudes in the secondary 509 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 1: kind of need to know where they are at all times. 510 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:51,040 Speaker 1: And I just want to see back to back weeks 511 00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:54,560 Speaker 1: where one of these guys can have two straight performances 512 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:58,440 Speaker 1: that are good. DK showed us three different ways he 513 00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:01,199 Speaker 1: can get the football. I want to see that implemented 514 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:03,640 Speaker 1: this week. And they're gonna need it because, like I mentioned, 515 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:06,200 Speaker 1: Carlos got some ballers on defense to a good secondary. 516 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:10,080 Speaker 1: So hoping that these guys can get loose and for 517 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 1: the final time this season. I know it hurts, but 518 00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:15,560 Speaker 1: bump us figure out how to see us get it done. 519 00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:20,560 Speaker 1: Path to victory. At the forty five, waits for the staff, 520 00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:23,880 Speaker 1: Michael Vickson puts it down. That kick is away. If 521 00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:29,479 Speaker 1: that kick is gone, it's gun. It's a pass to victory. 522 00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:33,760 Speaker 1: On Hawk Talk, this is how the Hawks are gonna 523 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 1: get it done their last game of the season. First 524 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:40,240 Speaker 1: and foremost, you have to contain Kyler Murray. He's a 525 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:43,440 Speaker 1: special guy. He will side that pocket, he will let 526 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:45,640 Speaker 1: it lose. He will use his legs so slide, He'll 527 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:47,719 Speaker 1: get out of bounces He'll break your ankles. Whatever you 528 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,439 Speaker 1: want to do outside that pocket, he can do. Carlos 529 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 1: Dunlap and Darryl Taylor need to be disciplined in their 530 00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:57,680 Speaker 1: pass rush and then create turnovers. We mentioned in their losses. 531 00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:01,840 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray has five interceptions. He has fumbled thirteen times. 532 00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:04,320 Speaker 1: He hasn't lost one yet, which is amazing. Let's get 533 00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:07,440 Speaker 1: him to fumble and actually lose one, all right, Interceptions 534 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:11,520 Speaker 1: fumbles force him to turn the football over, no question 535 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:14,000 Speaker 1: about it. There's no way that streak can continue going. 536 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:16,200 Speaker 1: I mean, he hasn't recovered all these, but his linemen 537 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:18,439 Speaker 1: are recovering running backs to recover him. It makes no 538 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:21,440 Speaker 1: sense to me. So hopefully that'll change the Sunday. Run 539 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:24,200 Speaker 1: the football, Run the football. The Seahawks have been at 540 00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:26,240 Speaker 1: their best this season when they've been able to run 541 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:29,159 Speaker 1: the football. Need a heavy dose for shot pennies you 542 00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:30,960 Speaker 1: talked about. You want to see him carry the ball 543 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:33,760 Speaker 1: twenty five times again for the second consecutive week. He's 544 00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:36,919 Speaker 1: increases carries every single week the last four and I 545 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:38,200 Speaker 1: want to see him do it again. I want to 546 00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:39,920 Speaker 1: see him, as Turbo was talking about in the post, 547 00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:41,720 Speaker 1: team be that bell cow be able to carry it 548 00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:44,600 Speaker 1: twenty five times again and make it out healthy. That's 549 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:47,120 Speaker 1: what I want to see from a shot. We need 550 00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:50,479 Speaker 1: to see Russell Wilson do what he does. We need 551 00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:52,760 Speaker 1: him to take care of the football would even be accurate. 552 00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:54,720 Speaker 1: We need him to connect on the deep ball. We 553 00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:57,000 Speaker 1: need him to make great decisions. We need him to 554 00:26:57,040 --> 00:26:58,679 Speaker 1: look like the guy we saw last week and the 555 00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 1: guy that we've seen for ten years now. Heavy dose 556 00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:06,360 Speaker 1: of DK and Lockett. If you want to be explosive, 557 00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:09,680 Speaker 1: fourteen and sixteen have to be involved in your game 558 00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:12,200 Speaker 1: plan often and accurate. That doesn't mean just going deep. 559 00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:14,880 Speaker 1: That means hitting them underneath force and sometimes you gotta 560 00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 1: force feed them. Yeah. Yeah, I believe you can throw 561 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:19,880 Speaker 1: a slant against any coverage at the receiver and quarterback 562 00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:22,400 Speaker 1: on the same page, throw the slant. I think if 563 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:24,320 Speaker 1: Russ and DC can get on the same page or 564 00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 1: they'll be good. They missed a couple of times on 565 00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:28,600 Speaker 1: some open slants. Yeah, you're right, that's something that they 566 00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:31,240 Speaker 1: should not ever, you know, not connect on. With their 567 00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:32,800 Speaker 1: talent level and how good they can be, I think 568 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 1: you're absolutely right. I want to see more of that 569 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:37,359 Speaker 1: and get back to owning the NFC west Man. Obviously, 570 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:40,040 Speaker 1: you didn't win the division this year. You win this game, 571 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:42,280 Speaker 1: you'll finish three and three in the division. I don't know. 572 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:44,359 Speaker 1: Something about seven and ten feels better than six and 573 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,760 Speaker 1: eleven and the year on a strong note. There's a 574 00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:48,320 Speaker 1: lot of things that have happened this year they're having 575 00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:49,919 Speaker 1: on the Seahawks way, but there are a lot of 576 00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 1: positives to take out of this season. So finish on 577 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 1: a high note.
