1
00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:07,680
Speaker 1: Prescott flapping his hands waiting for the snap, takes the shotgun,

2
00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:13,120
Speaker 1: snap stepped up, he gets hit, he goes down. Who

3
00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:33,160
Speaker 1: not a way to go? And much more of Coach

4
00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:35,559
Speaker 1: Carol miked up coming up on Seahawks Saturday night, we're

5
00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:37,320
Speaker 1: now joined by the head coach. Coach you ever forget

6
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:39,319
Speaker 1: that you're wearing a mic sometime? In general, I've got

7
00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:42,000
Speaker 1: five different guys that remind me during the game, so

8
00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:44,080
Speaker 1: I know I don't well a lot to celebrate last

9
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:47,120
Speaker 1: week and that home opening win against the Dallas Cowboys.

10
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:49,200
Speaker 1: How nice was it to get back to that winning

11
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:51,640
Speaker 1: formula you had preached all off season long. Yeah, it was.

12
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:54,040
Speaker 1: It was great. It was great to be there at

13
00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:56,320
Speaker 1: Sea Link and show what we've been talking about. And

14
00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:58,400
Speaker 1: I think for a lot of people that looked real familiar.

15
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:00,120
Speaker 1: It looked like like we played in the past, and

16
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 1: so we're really excited about it. It was a clear

17
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:05,360
Speaker 1: intent that we just finally got to and so hopefully

18
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:07,679
Speaker 1: we can recapture this week going out. He talked about

19
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:10,240
Speaker 1: that winning formula thirty nine carries overall thirty two for

20
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:12,840
Speaker 1: Chris Carson. I've heard there's a sub formula there at

21
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:16,160
Speaker 1: least fifty combined carries and completions in a game usually

22
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:18,960
Speaker 1: as a winning formulator historically, and it goes way back

23
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:21,920
Speaker 1: and ball that's been a winning formula, and so we're

24
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 1: always shooting for it. We always keep track. We're looking

25
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:26,560
Speaker 1: every week and so that when we hit it, the

26
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:29,440
Speaker 1: winning percentage is of high eighties, you know, eighty percent.

27
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 1: So it's a really good it's a good gauge for us.

28
00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:34,400
Speaker 1: Great to have a one hundred yard rusher for the

29
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:36,200
Speaker 1: first time in a couple of seasons. How big an

30
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:38,920
Speaker 1: addition has DJ Fluker been, specifically in the run game, No,

31
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 1: he sparked us. Now, he's not just a good tough

32
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:43,360
Speaker 1: football player, but he's got a great spirit, as I've

33
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 1: been talking about this week. His energy, his competitiveness, his celebration.

34
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:51,240
Speaker 1: You know, he's he affects people around him and he's

35
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 1: a one addition to our team. Tyler Lockett, he said

36
00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 1: he was one hundred percent healthy this season. He's had

37
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 1: a touchdown in each of his first three games. How

38
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:00,080
Speaker 1: is he different as a player now compared to his

39
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 1: rookie year. Well, he's just more experienced. You know, his

40
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 1: route running has always been really good, but now he

41
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:07,880
Speaker 1: takes advantage of the coverage and the looks and the

42
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 1: checks that Russ gives him, and he just is maximizing

43
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:14,560
Speaker 1: all of the experience that he's gained. What differences do

44
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,320
Speaker 1: you see with the Arizona Cardinals on film now that

45
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 1: they have a different head coach, Well, they're entirely different.

46
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 1: It's an entirely different offense and different philosophical approach offensively. Defensively,

47
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 1: it's a totally different defense. It's the Carolina Panther defense

48
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 1: that we've seen for years, and so it's not the

49
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 1: same at all. However, they're playing really aggressive. They're pressure

50
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:34,760
Speaker 1: like crazy on defense, which they used to do, just

51
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:37,440
Speaker 1: in a different format. And there's a lot of similarities

52
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:40,520
Speaker 1: in the run game too, you see, and so it's similar.

53
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:42,840
Speaker 1: But to us, we can say tell you that it's

54
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:45,400
Speaker 1: much different. He talks about the Cardinals defense. Husky fans

55
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 1: very familiar with a guy like Buddha Baker, Oh gosh,

56
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 1: and what ways does he stand out on film? He's

57
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 1: a phenomenal player, is such an instinctive gutsy kid. You know,

58
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 1: he's all over the field and they're pressure on him.

59
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,600
Speaker 1: They put him in key spots to make him available

60
00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:01,799
Speaker 1: to get off the edge. He can cover guys. He's

61
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 1: a terrific open field tackler. He's just a great football player.

62
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 1: When you face a rookie quarterback, especially early in the season,

63
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 1: how far back do you go in terms of watching film?

64
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 1: You go back to his UCLA days and talking about

65
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 1: we use the evaluations from then. We don't have to

66
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 1: go back that far. We've seen enough so but those

67
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:19,239
Speaker 1: evaluations are really important to us because we you know,

68
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 1: we went into great depth and understand who he was

69
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 1: and what kind of player he was, so all of

70
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 1: that is the foundation of it. But we're watching him

71
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 1: how as he plays with this team now. Some people

72
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 1: thought going into the season, the Seahawks defense, we're going

73
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,320
Speaker 1: to have a sort of a down year. Eight turnovers

74
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:35,560
Speaker 1: already this year, five sacks last week. How impressed have

75
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:37,600
Speaker 1: you've been with being able to, you know, win the

76
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 1: turnover battle. Plus three in turnover margins so far this year.

77
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 1: I think that's type for fourth in the league. Yeah, well,

78
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,160
Speaker 1: we're off to a good start. You know. We've somebody

79
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 1: put up the stat the other day that we've got

80
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:50,200
Speaker 1: two hundred takeaways since two eleven. You know, We're fired

81
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,400
Speaker 1: up about that, and it's such a big deal to

82
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 1: be off to a good start. You know, we've got

83
00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 1: a long ways to go, but it's been exciting. It's

84
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 1: given us all kinds of juice and hopefully we can

85
00:03:58,280 --> 00:03:59,760
Speaker 1: keep building on that. As you always say, it's all

86
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:01,840
Speaker 1: about ball. Yeah, it is all about the balls at

87
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 1: the heart of our philosophy, so it's really important. Ourt

88
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 1: Twitter question this week comes from at Silent Underscore Edge coach.

89
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,440
Speaker 1: If you could have coached one of your former college

90
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 1: players at the professional level, who would it be. Yeah,

91
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 1: I think I'd go get Toy Polamalo. You know, he

92
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:17,720
Speaker 1: was one of my all time favorites. There's a lot

93
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 1: of favorites, but he just was such an extraordinary football

94
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:23,280
Speaker 1: player and effected the game in so many ways and

95
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:25,920
Speaker 1: was such an amazing kid on your team. I'd like

96
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 1: to coach Toy again. Thanks a lot. Coachst a lot

97

Speaker 1: tomorrow and if you have a question for Pete Carroll,
