1

00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:17,200
Speaker 1: at the podium, Steve Rabel, Ray Robert's going to join us.

7
00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:19,560
Speaker 1: Before we get to any of it, Dave and bump

8
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:21,760
Speaker 1: I have one bit of bad news, one bit of

9
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:25,840
Speaker 1: good news. Let's start with the good news here, Sean Alexander.

10
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:29,920
Speaker 1: This uh from Lumanfield. Sean Alexander will be inducted into

11
00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:36,480
Speaker 1: the Seahawks Ring of Honor in October at lumen Field. Nope,

12
00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:42,040
Speaker 1: can't hear you, Nope? Start off, Yeah, Sean Alexander. You

13
00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:47,280
Speaker 1: know what, Sean Alexander was my like introduction to Seahawk football.

14
00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:50,760
Speaker 1: He's the first player I associate with Seahawk football. With

15
00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:54,600
Speaker 1: Sean Alexander, I remember his thickle, elbow pads and stuff.

16
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:57,080
Speaker 1: His running style was was a bit different, and it

17
00:00:57,200 --> 00:00:59,520
Speaker 1: makes sense that he gets inducted. Man, he's the running

18
00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:01,520
Speaker 1: back with most FIVAL Player in two thousand and five,

19
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:03,200
Speaker 1: Offensive Player of the un in two thousand and five

20
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:05,920
Speaker 1: All Pro, and AL five second team All PRONOL four,

21
00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:08,840
Speaker 1: three time Pro bowler. I mean, it only makes sense

22
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:11,560
Speaker 1: that this man gets in so good for him. Nine

23
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:15,400
Speaker 1: thousand yards, one hundred touchdowns, twenty fifteen receptions. He did

24
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:18,120
Speaker 1: it all. I remember a game at Arizona and I

25
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:20,880
Speaker 1: think he was sick at halftime or something. I think

26
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:23,320
Speaker 1: before the half he had to go in and get

27
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:25,800
Speaker 1: something for his stomach or something like that. And he

28
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 1: comes out and runs an eighty eight yard touchdown in

29
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 1: the third and I just wow, I'm the acceleration and

30
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:35,679
Speaker 1: you know, running behind those guys. I remember another time

31
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 1: in two thousand and four they did not pick up

32
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 1: a first down and I was shocked, and they had

33
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 1: to kick a field goal. They end up losing to

34
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:45,959
Speaker 1: the Redskins at the time, and it was Max Strong

35
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 1: at fullback. Was an eye formation Max Strong, and it

36
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:52,920
Speaker 1: went over the left side, so it was Steve Hutchinson

37
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:56,560
Speaker 1: and Walter Jones and they didn't pick up the first down. Well,

38
00:01:56,600 --> 00:02:00,560
Speaker 1: I was like, it was like Tyler Lockett dropping a pass. Yeah, yeah, No,

39
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 1: I mean it's like you just never see that, And

40
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:05,560
Speaker 1: I was like, wow, that was pretty awesome by their defense,

41
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 1: you know, because you have those guys up front who

42
00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 1: were so good, and you know, Walt gets so much

43
00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 1: deserved praise because he's so good, but Hutch was really

44
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,320
Speaker 1: a good guard too, and then you had Max Strong

45
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:19,520
Speaker 1: leading the way and they couldn't take it up. So yeah,

46
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:21,960
Speaker 1: sometimes that's the kind of player he was. I think

47
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 1: that you were like shocked if Sean didn't get like

48
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:27,560
Speaker 1: a ten yard game. All right, The all time leading

49
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 1: rusher for the Seattle Seahawks and franchise history, Sean Alexander,

50
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:33,960
Speaker 1: will be inducted into the Ring of Honor in October.

51
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,600
Speaker 1: That news from the Seahawks and lumin Field breaking just

52
00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:39,800
Speaker 1: a couple of minutes ago. Breaking earlier last hour, by

53
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:41,360
Speaker 1: the way. And now let me get to the bad news.

54
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 1: This is from Ian Rappaport, not confirmed by the Seahawks yet,

55
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,800
Speaker 1: but Ian Rappaport saying that Jamal Adams will have season

56
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 1: ending surgery to repair a torn quad tendon. Bumblest woman,

57
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 1: I'll start with you for this one, but I mean

58
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:58,480
Speaker 1: the impact on the defense without Jamal. Should he be

59
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 1: done for the season, Yeah, it's it's just such a shame, man.

60
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 1: I don't know what to say about it. You go

61
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 1: back and look at like his record in college. He

62
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 1: played three years at LSU, never missed a game. Yeah,

63
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,240
Speaker 1: you didn't miss any games in New York maybe two,

64
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 1: I think the entire time he was there. So he's

65
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:18,079
Speaker 1: just not been an injury guy. And now it's been

66
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:20,360
Speaker 1: nothing but injuries. Even in the really good year that

67
00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:22,800
Speaker 1: he had. Remember he ended up screwing up his shoulder.

68
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 1: He played in the playoff game, but he you know,

69
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:27,560
Speaker 1: he couldn't make tackles, couldn't cover. There was a couple

70
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:29,400
Speaker 1: of times where you could just tell that he had

71
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 1: his arm strapped to his side. The guy is such

72
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 1: a good player. It's such a shame, man, I you know,

73
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 1: I luckily they had some some guys that played, like

74
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 1: Josh Jones, that played really well in the new season.

75
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:42,360
Speaker 1: But um, yeah, it's a huge loss no matter what.

76
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:46,400
Speaker 1: That's the most disappointing part of You know, you have

77
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:48,800
Speaker 1: a new defensive coordinator, you got you know, these new

78
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:51,560
Speaker 1: coaches coming in. It looks like everything's gonna be so

79
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 1: much better than it was last year, and you just

80
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 1: expect to have those guys on your defense, and it's

81
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 1: just so disappointing. Jamal Adams has You're right, Dave miss

82
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 1: just two games over three seasons with the New York Jets.

83
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 1: Assuming this is a season ending injury, it will be

84
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 1: twenty five games missed with Seattle over three seasons. Bump. Yeah,

85
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 1: we know injuries happened, right, It's going to happen in

86
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:13,360
Speaker 1: someone's career. The worst part is when they happened back

87
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,840
Speaker 1: to back to back, and then it happened while he

88
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:17,640
Speaker 1: was making a play too, and you watched the play,

89
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,240
Speaker 1: it didn't seem like anything crazy happened. It's how flute

90
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:22,320
Speaker 1: these things are. And I look at the defense and

91
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 1: I love what they were doing with him, and he

92
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 1: was lining up at linebacker at the time. They still

93
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,000
Speaker 1: had two safeties over the top, and I'm like, I

94
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:29,440
Speaker 1: like this looked at him. You allow Jama to be aggressive.

95
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,400
Speaker 1: I think he's better in the box, like the hook,

96
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 1: the curl area. I feel like he'd do great there.

97
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:35,080
Speaker 1: So when I saw this in camp, then I saw

98
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 1: it against the Broncos, and on that play I saw

99
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 1: the packs and goal, Oh yeah, this is gonna be funny.

100
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:40,919
Speaker 1: Let me see what Jamala does and then he makes

101
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 1: a play. You don't know what exactly happened to him.

102
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:44,920
Speaker 1: He is limping off the field, and the first thing

103
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 1: I do is just feel for him. Man. I'm like,

104
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:48,279
Speaker 1: the last thing you want to do as an athlete

105
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:50,280
Speaker 1: is go out there and get hurt very first game

106
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,360
Speaker 1: of the year. Didn't play in the preseason for this reason,

107
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,640
Speaker 1: and then goes out and it's just unfortunate. Man. It's

108
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,680
Speaker 1: almost like his brain tells his body to do things

109
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:01,160
Speaker 1: that it can't do. You know that he's so competitive. Yeah,

110
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,839
Speaker 1: well no, it's just it's just like I don't know.

111
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,600
Speaker 1: I mean, you're the human body has you know, restrictions

112
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 1: on and I feel like his brain moved so fast

113
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,920
Speaker 1: because he took like a weird little step there, which

114
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,440
Speaker 1: he needed to take because Russ was trying to joke him,

115
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:16,359
Speaker 1: and you know, so his leg goes out and I

116
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,400
Speaker 1: feel like that's where it happened. So he reacted so

117
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:22,920
Speaker 1: quick to Russell Wilson that you know, like, like I said,

118
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 1: I think he just outplays his own body sometimes, man,

119
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:28,479
Speaker 1: because the guy is just electric and and you know

120
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,320
Speaker 1: he loves football. You can you can tell. And when

121
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,279
Speaker 1: he talks about football football. It reflects the way he

122
00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,640
Speaker 1: plays on the field. It's just pure energy. Yeah, all right,

123
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:38,440
Speaker 1: well that was the latest news again. The good news

124
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 1: Sean Alexander will be inducted into the Seahawks Ring of

125
00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:43,480
Speaker 1: Honor in October. That confirmed by the team. Not yet

126
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:46,480
Speaker 1: confirmed by the team, though. Report this morning from multiple outlets,

127
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 1: including NFL Network is that Jamal Adams is done for

128
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:51,279
Speaker 1: the season and we'll have season ending surgery on a

129
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:54,520
Speaker 1: torn quad tendence. So let's move on for right now.

130
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 1: We've got plenty to look forward to. Before we look forward, though,

131
00:05:57,720 --> 00:05:59,760
Speaker 1: let's look back Monday night football all win over the

132
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:03,480
Speaker 1: Denver Broncos. Seahawks were near seven point underdogs and instead

133
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 1: they pull it off. Let's start with Geneo Smith Bump.

134
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:09,360
Speaker 1: You want to get it started on Gino because I

135
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:14,120
Speaker 1: already know who I'm going to for Cody Gino. Love

136
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 1: what I saw from Gino obviously starts off thirteen and

137
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 1: thirteen and looked like he was in complete control. I mean,

138
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:23,280
Speaker 1: his very first touchdown to Will Disley was composure at

139
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:26,000
Speaker 1: his finest right. Travis Homer gets blown up trying to

140
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:28,520
Speaker 1: pick up a blitz. A guy gets thrown into Gino.

141
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,080
Speaker 1: Gino escapes, it looks like he's gonna run, keeps his

142
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 1: eyes downfield, and flicks it over the top like that

143
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,560
Speaker 1: play alone, I'm thinking, okay, Gino's comfortable, because if he

144
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:38,640
Speaker 1: wasn't there, he would have panicked, would have got tackled.

145
00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 1: But other than that, it's how quickly he got the

146
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:43,839
Speaker 1: ball out of his hands, how he walks up to

147
00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:45,400
Speaker 1: a lot of screams. I saw him check out of

148
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:47,799
Speaker 1: a couple plays and check into something else. If he didn't,

149
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,400
Speaker 1: then it was dummy calls and it fulled me and

150
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:52,599
Speaker 1: it might have fooled that defense. He just seemed like

151
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,720
Speaker 1: a guy that Shane Walson and Pete Carrol trust, and

152
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 1: I think that was the main thing. They're like, can

153
00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:59,640
Speaker 1: we trust you to get in and out of plays,

154
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:01,839
Speaker 1: to get the ball out on time, to take care

155
00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 1: of the football, Dave. I don't think there was one

156
00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:07,520
Speaker 1: pass where I thought okay, that one was was close

157
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:09,760
Speaker 1: maybe the past of dcase when I threw him inside

158
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:11,600
Speaker 1: and there's a guy on his hip, but I realized

159
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,000
Speaker 1: where and why he threw it there. But I didn't

160
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:15,840
Speaker 1: At no point did I think Gino, this is too

161
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:19,000
Speaker 1: much for Gino. No, I was gonna say there's one

162
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:21,440
Speaker 1: that sailed over Penny. I think like there was this

163
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:23,560
Speaker 1: first completion. Yeah, there was only one that I could

164
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:25,200
Speaker 1: think of where it's like no one really has a

165
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:27,360
Speaker 1: shot at that or there was a miscommunication. But did

166
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 1: he surprise you with his play? Totally? I mean he

167
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:34,400
Speaker 1: looked good in the preseason, but this was a different level. Man. Yeah.

168
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,040
Speaker 1: First of all, the Dishley touchdown, I just want to

169
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:38,640
Speaker 1: give a shout out to Homer, Travis Homer for taking

170
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 1: one for the annihilator. But he did enough and you know,

171
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 1: for Gino to keep his eyes up while scrambling, that

172
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 1: was the most impressive thing to me. I thought the

173
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 1: throw back to Will Dishley was ill advised. I mean

174
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 1: it was a past interference and it was weird about

175
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,800
Speaker 1: that play where shot Penny was over there was open yeah,

176
00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:00,240
Speaker 1: I mean I don't know what happened there, but so

177
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:02,840
Speaker 1: there was it was two on one. But um, yeah,

178
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:06,720
Speaker 1: I thought Gino was really like a different player, man.

179
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:11,320
Speaker 1: He really was, you know, just beyond what we've seen

180
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 1: anything from him. So and it's it's just interesting because

181
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 1: we're talking about baseball players, like a guy Paul Sewald

182
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:19,560
Speaker 1: who comes in. He's thirty years old, and you know,

183
00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:21,240
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, it clicks for him at a

184
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:24,080
Speaker 1: certain point, and football just doesn't happen that way, right.

185
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 1: I mean, it's like your second year, your third year.

186
00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:30,360
Speaker 1: Well this is Gino's tenth year, and you know it's

187
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:32,360
Speaker 1: clicking for him, like he all of a sudden is

188
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:34,160
Speaker 1: now we got to see him put together back to

189
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:37,560
Speaker 1: back you know, games, But we'll get too excited, but

190
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:39,040
Speaker 1: you know, and the other thing was somebody said, well,

191
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 1: he wouldn't very good in the second half, and like

192
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:43,960
Speaker 1: you got one ball tipped, and without that tip, if

193
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:45,840
Speaker 1: that's a catch, he was who would have been sixty

194
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:49,240
Speaker 1: three percent completion. So yeah, the offense kind of shut

195
00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 1: down on the second half. But man, he looked really good.

196
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:54,720
Speaker 1: Now we got to see it again and again, and

197
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:58,520
Speaker 1: we'll see what happens, you know, how he responds to adversity.

198
00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:01,679
Speaker 1: But I would say that first touchdown pass to Will

199
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:04,160
Speaker 1: Disley was a pretty good sign of how he because

200
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:07,000
Speaker 1: his running back got trucked there and you know he

201
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:09,240
Speaker 1: was able to move and keep his eyes up. I

202
00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:11,600
Speaker 1: was really impressed. The most important play of the game, well,

203
00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 1: I don't want to say most important. It's a team win,

204
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 1: but it might have been Cody Barton's hit on Javonte

205
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:20,400
Speaker 1: Williams to keep that screen from from just exploding. I mean,

206
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,439
Speaker 1: what did you see from his reaction there other than

207
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:26,440
Speaker 1: it being perfectly timed. Yeah, Cody just yeah, that's a

208
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:28,400
Speaker 1: hard play to play. I mean, you've seen it over

209
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:31,200
Speaker 1: the last couple of years. You have to be physical,

210
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:33,960
Speaker 1: you know, with a screen, and my thing was always

211
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,199
Speaker 1: I'm going to go up and hit somebody first, and

212
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,440
Speaker 1: that's kind of what Cody's thing is, hit first and

213
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,360
Speaker 1: then figure out where the running back is. kJ had

214
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:44,200
Speaker 1: a super good knack for that playing in the screens.

215
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:46,959
Speaker 1: But yeah, Cody had had a really good game. I mean,

216
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:49,200
Speaker 1: what do you say. He went out and did what

217
00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 1: he's done every time he's got an opportunity. He plays

218
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:55,840
Speaker 1: with a lot of energy. He takes on blockers, he

219
00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:58,520
Speaker 1: wants to hit people. That's what it's all about. I'm sorry,

220
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 1: you know, you can't be a ANESS player on defense.

221
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,880
Speaker 1: So yeah, it was he was good. I thought, you know,

222
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:05,840
Speaker 1: there's a couple of things with Jordan Brooks where you know,

223
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:08,160
Speaker 1: he missed a tackle or two and you know, it

224
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:10,719
Speaker 1: was kind of you know, got hooked one time, and

225
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:13,080
Speaker 1: there was a lot of stuff that happened on the

226
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:16,800
Speaker 1: edge that can be fixed, all right, Turek Wolan joins us. Next,

227
00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:19,480
Speaker 1: don't go anywhere. This is the huddle. You are listening

228
00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:22,840
Speaker 1: to the huddle with Dave Wyman, Michael Bumpus, and Stacy Ross.

229
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:24,440
Speaker 1: We're gonna be joined here in just a little bit

230
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,320
Speaker 1: by cornerback Terrek Wolan to hear about his very exciting

231
00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:30,439
Speaker 1: Week one, and I'll look ahead to week two very quickly. Here,

232
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 1: I do have an official roster move from the Seahawks.

233
00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:35,680
Speaker 1: The Seahawks have placed safety Jamal Adams on the injured

234
00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 1: reserve Thursday. So again, nothing here yet like confirming that

235
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:43,840
Speaker 1: his seasons over the injured reserve requires a minimum of

236
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:47,200
Speaker 1: four weeks, though obviously the reports out of NFL Network

237
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:49,000
Speaker 1: being that his season is done, so at the very least,

238
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:52,480
Speaker 1: he has officially been placed on the injured reserve. Meanwhile,

239
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,679
Speaker 1: the Seahawks have signed safety Teas Taber off of Atlanta's

240
00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:59,199
Speaker 1: practice squad. Let's look ahead two Week two. The Seahawks

241
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 1: are going to be on the against the San Francisco

242
00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:02,960
Speaker 1: forty nine ers in this one. Dave, tell me if

243
00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:05,000
Speaker 1: you agree. Bump and Eye earlier, we're saying it feels

244
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,120
Speaker 1: like the run on either side is going to be

245
00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:10,680
Speaker 1: the story of Week two. Absolutely. Yeah, it's uh, they

246
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:12,880
Speaker 1: have such a good run game. And you saw what

247
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:16,600
Speaker 1: Elijah Mitchell did. Yeah, now he's hurt, right, he's out

248
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:19,880
Speaker 1: for a number of weeks or with the two months status. Yeah,

249
00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 1: so um, that's part of so Kyle Shanahan, his father,

250
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:29,200
Speaker 1: obviously Mike Shanahan had that run game with Alex Gibbs

251
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:32,480
Speaker 1: in Denver where you just plug a guy in. Yeah, yeah,

252
00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:34,800
Speaker 1: that's that's kind of what they have because remember they

253
00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:37,800
Speaker 1: had he mostred that year they went to the Super Bowl.

254
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 1: Trying to remember the other Wilson Wilson Junior. Wilson Junior,

255
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:43,280
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Jeff Wilson, And I remember listening to an

256
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:45,440
Speaker 1: update from c Rog I think it was during the

257
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:48,040
Speaker 1: twenty twenty season and he's like, have yourself a day.

258
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:50,800
Speaker 1: Jeff Wilson Junior had like three touchdowns Yeah, something like

259
00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:53,760
Speaker 1: that against the Patriots. So yeah, it's it's pretty amazing

260
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:57,040
Speaker 1: that they've been able to just you know, duplicate that

261
00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:00,360
Speaker 1: same thing. But they got Kyle huscheck Kittle. Mean, they've

262
00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:03,120
Speaker 1: got great personnel. I feel like, no matter what there's

263
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,760
Speaker 1: gonna be, there's gonna be a run threat. And the

264
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:07,720
Speaker 1: good news is, you know, I talked to yesterday to

265
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:11,600
Speaker 1: Quentin Jefferson, and those guys really take a lot of

266
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 1: pride in that. And in the second half, the first player,

267
00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 1: second player, I did a football one on one on

268
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:20,120
Speaker 1: it that those guys inside. It was Pona I think

269
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:23,200
Speaker 1: it was Shelby Harris and then you know, I can't remember,

270
00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:26,840
Speaker 1: it was Big al Woods. They just entirely placed their

271
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,040
Speaker 1: offensive line in the backfield and they ended up with

272
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:32,600
Speaker 1: a two yard loss there. So they've they've done a

273
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:34,959
Speaker 1: really good job of taking pride because it's tough with

274
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,840
Speaker 1: a three four you have one less offensive lineman. You know,

275
00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:40,400
Speaker 1: you could get run on. It's more of a past

276
00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:43,679
Speaker 1: type of defense. And those guys did a really good job. Now,

277
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,600
Speaker 1: I'd say like for Darryl Taylor, he had a couple

278
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:50,720
Speaker 1: of times where he was flowing too fast. You know,

279
00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:53,760
Speaker 1: they're probably gonna see that and they're gonna test him.

280
00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 1: So there was a couple of times. Uchenna obviously was

281
00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,760
Speaker 1: really good and he really started that whole play that

282
00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:02,600
Speaker 1: they at a two yard loss on. But you know,

283
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:05,400
Speaker 1: I think that's that's where it's going to have to start.

284
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:07,560
Speaker 1: The linebackers are going to have to be really disciplined

285
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:11,079
Speaker 1: because whoever they plug in back there. Uh, they've got

286
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:14,720
Speaker 1: a really good, solid running game and apparently it didn't

287
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 1: hurt them because they have the loss of Mike McDaniel

288
00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:19,840
Speaker 1: and he was sort of seen as the run guru.

289
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:22,280
Speaker 1: But you know, they have a system there that is

290
00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:25,400
Speaker 1: just continuing on without him. Well, also, what San Francisco

291
00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 1: now has that they didn't necessarily to the same extent

292
00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 1: with Jimmy g as a quarterback who can pick up

293
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:32,559
Speaker 1: yards with his legs. I mean, Trey Lance led the

294
00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:35,319
Speaker 1: team in rushing against Chicago. It wasn't an exceptional day

295
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:39,320
Speaker 1: for rushing for either team, whether you know understanding you

296
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:43,720
Speaker 1: know that situation. But Seattle's had this advantage before, especially

297
00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:46,320
Speaker 1: when Russell Wilson was younger, as it keeps defenses on

298
00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:49,400
Speaker 1: their toes bump. What's the kind of challenge that Seattle's

299
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:51,760
Speaker 1: gonna have with Trey Lance, who can also run the

300
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:53,520
Speaker 1: ball and scramble if he needs to. Yeah, when you

301
00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:55,720
Speaker 1: have a quarterback who can run the football. He's in

302
00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:57,640
Speaker 1: the run game. You know they're gonna they're gonna leave

303
00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,360
Speaker 1: the DNM block and option off of him. You know

304
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:03,040
Speaker 1: they're gonna make that d and have to make a decision.

305
00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:06,040
Speaker 1: And with that's gonna be playface. There's gonna be boots,

306
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,319
Speaker 1: all of that stuff. Like these dns are gonna get

307
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:10,840
Speaker 1: a lot of work and really gonna not dns if

308
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:13,600
Speaker 1: be your edge rushers to be DT and a Jenna

309
00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:16,440
Speaker 1: they got, their discipline is going to be testing. And

310
00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:18,520
Speaker 1: you can't forget Deebo Sammy Man, who's a receiver who

311
00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:20,360
Speaker 1: they're gonna motion in the backfield. They're gonna give him

312
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:22,440
Speaker 1: the football. He had eight for fifty two average six

313
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:25,520
Speaker 1: and a half in a touchdown. Um they've talked about

314
00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 1: that system. It's a system where you just plug and

315
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,880
Speaker 1: then you play. They're gonna pull guards, they're gonna pull tackles.

316
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:34,680
Speaker 1: They're going to motion your fullback outside. They're gonna bring

317
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:36,680
Speaker 1: them back inside. They're gonna do what I call a

318
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 1: boom block, which is bringing it tight in from one

319
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:40,760
Speaker 1: side and block that d and after you've left him

320
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:42,560
Speaker 1: on block for five or six plays in a row,

321
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:44,640
Speaker 1: like they do so many things in the run game

322
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 1: that tests a defense discipline, and it plays with your eyes, right.

323
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:51,560
Speaker 1: You got guys crossing everywhere. It tests like okay, am

324
00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:53,120
Speaker 1: I gonna read my key? Am I gonna get to

325
00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:55,600
Speaker 1: where I'm supposed to be? So they just they have

326
00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:58,880
Speaker 1: to be disciplined and and honestly, I imagine a day

327
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 1: where Shane Walton's offense has a little bit more of

328
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 1: this too in his game. The shifts, the motions. I

329
00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:07,600
Speaker 1: told states earlier day, I go, what you see is

330
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 1: not what you're gonna get. At your initial look at

331
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:11,320
Speaker 1: the offense, you're like, all right, this is the picture.

332
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:13,680
Speaker 1: Now wait a couple of seconds. Somebody's gonna move, someone's

333
00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:15,640
Speaker 1: gonna set up in a different area, and then you

334
00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:19,160
Speaker 1: have to adjust and communicate with your other defenders out there. Yeah,

335
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:21,160
Speaker 1: you know, it's funny. The run game. You wouldn't think

336
00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:23,440
Speaker 1: would be that complicated, But if you wanted to, like

337
00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:25,720
Speaker 1: sit down and nerd out with one of their coaches,

338
00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:27,960
Speaker 1: they would tell you that, you know, all the motion

339
00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:31,720
Speaker 1: and the shifting and everything creates angles like blocking angles.

340
00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:34,200
Speaker 1: So you know, if a guy's head up on you

341
00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:36,800
Speaker 1: and you have to you know, block him to the left.

342
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a battle, but they get it. So

343
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:43,200
Speaker 1: either the player shifts because the motion or whatever, and

344
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:46,240
Speaker 1: it creates the angle that they want. So it's really,

345
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:50,080
Speaker 1: you know, kind of detailed and frankly quite boring stuff.

346
00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:53,080
Speaker 1: You know, I love you if you sat in the

347
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:55,480
Speaker 1: film room, probably, but that's kind of what they do.

348
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:59,080
Speaker 1: It's very technical. So yeah, it's it's been Like I said,

349
00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:01,640
Speaker 1: I was there with Mike Shanahan and yeah, you know,

350
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:04,160
Speaker 1: they w Terrell Davis came in. He was like a

351
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:07,240
Speaker 1: sixth seventh, eighth rounder back when they had like twelve

352
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:10,360
Speaker 1: rounds in the draft, and man, he his rookie year,

353
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 1: he ran his tail off in that and that run scheme,

354
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:16,640
Speaker 1: so kind of similar compared, you know, as far as

355
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:18,760
Speaker 1: h and Kyle. Shanahan, by the way, was like a

356
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:22,000
Speaker 1: little snot nose sixteen sixteen year old. I can't believe

357
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:24,720
Speaker 1: some of the people that you've just been around, Like

358
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 1: it's it's crazy, like hearing where was it you that

359
00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:30,160
Speaker 1: said when we were talking about the hardest person to tackle,

360
00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:33,400
Speaker 1: and who did you say? Very soon? That blows my mind.

361
00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:37,960
Speaker 1: He played for the play for the line high of

362
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:41,840
Speaker 1: him and oh my god, I'll tell that story really quick.

363
00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 1: But yeah, if you had the backside be gap and

364
00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:48,400
Speaker 1: he ran the other way to the outside. All week

365
00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:51,800
Speaker 1: long we practiced it was like Tomka, don't leave your

366
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:57,160
Speaker 1: wingman not leaving the B gap. Sure enough he'd come

367
00:16:57,320 --> 00:16:59,920
Speaker 1: all the way back and somebody who had the backs

368
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,280
Speaker 1: side B gap or C gap would make the tackle.

369
00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:05,600
Speaker 1: We actually held them to I think ninety yards rushing,

370
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:08,560
Speaker 1: So a good day. What's pretty amazing. All right, don't

371
00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:09,959
Speaker 1: go anywhere where you are going to be right back

372
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:12,000
Speaker 1: with Tariq wol And this is the huddle. You are

373
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:14,639
Speaker 1: listening to the huddle with Dave Wyman, Michael Bumpus, and

374
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:18,520
Speaker 1: Stacy Ross and right now Phil Haynes guard, Phil Haynes

375
00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:21,800
Speaker 1: joining us. Phil, what an exciting week one all of

376
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:24,960
Speaker 1: America watching you guys go out there and upset the Broncos.

377
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:27,760
Speaker 1: Did it feel validating? Like you seem like a really

378
00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:30,159
Speaker 1: chill guy who like you don't have, like, you know,

379
00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:33,040
Speaker 1: like this vengeful vibe about you? But was it still

380
00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:35,159
Speaker 1: validating to come in as the underdog and win. I

381
00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:37,720
Speaker 1: think it was. I mean, you're trying to listen to

382
00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:39,960
Speaker 1: a noise, but people are writing us off and you

383
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:43,240
Speaker 1: come in and win week one. That was a great feeling. Man.

384
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:45,680
Speaker 1: What I love about week one is that you don't

385
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:47,399
Speaker 1: really know what you're gonna get, right, you watch film,

386
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:48,919
Speaker 1: We're like, okay, I think they're gonna come out in

387
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:50,840
Speaker 1: this when we come out and that was there anything

388
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:52,800
Speaker 1: that the Broncos did that you didn't prepare for? And

389
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:55,199
Speaker 1: if they did show you something, what's that communication like

390
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:57,240
Speaker 1: with the line? Um, I think our coaches always do

391
00:17:57,280 --> 00:17:59,240
Speaker 1: agree to preparing us and like you said, week one

392
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:02,000
Speaker 1: and you never really know, but I think the day

393
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:03,440
Speaker 1: come up with a couple of things. Of course a

394
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 1: running next week, but Austin Black does a great job

395
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:07,600
Speaker 1: of just getting this all on the same page. And

396
00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:10,159
Speaker 1: we have a smart oldline and we just really do

397
00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:12,400
Speaker 1: a good job of understand what they're trying to do. Yeah,

398
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:14,760
Speaker 1: how tough was that? Like as far as their defense goes,

399
00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:16,280
Speaker 1: Like you said, you didn't really know what you were

400
00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:18,680
Speaker 1: going to get? Were you looking at film of you know,

401
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,120
Speaker 1: wherever the coach came from and stuff like that. It's

402
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:24,120
Speaker 1: it's always tough and week one, right, Yeah, it's always tough. Well,

403
00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:26,439
Speaker 1: but I mean it's kind of easy. We have like

404
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,720
Speaker 1: Shelby m in the room. You just come and tell

405
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:31,760
Speaker 1: us kind of what their scheme is, like what they

406
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:33,719
Speaker 1: wanted like to do. But yeah, we normally just look

407
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:36,000
Speaker 1: at like the coaches like family tree and like where

408
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:37,720
Speaker 1: they come from. Now, you probably have a lot of

409
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:40,679
Speaker 1: these moments. You guys had a great game on offense.

410
00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:43,480
Speaker 1: But was there one moment in the game maybe where

411
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:46,760
Speaker 1: either a great block, a great you know, run, whatever

412
00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:48,760
Speaker 1: it is, and you were like, I feel really proud

413
00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:52,359
Speaker 1: of myself, Like this feels good in this Momentum. I

414
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:54,399
Speaker 1: wouldn't say so for myself. I was more happy for

415
00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:57,600
Speaker 1: as a team getting to win for sure. Um, But

416
00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:00,479
Speaker 1: I mean Kobe suchown was amazing. We're doing a good

417
00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:02,440
Speaker 1: job and pat for all like all day and then

418
00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:05,080
Speaker 1: he was going to touchdown was amazing feeling for for

419
00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:07,200
Speaker 1: me just seeing him grow and mature of the player. Yeah,

420
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:09,640
Speaker 1: probably really satisfying too to just never see it payoff

421
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:12,240
Speaker 1: with a touchdown. Right, It's so hard. Absolutely, you seem

422
00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:14,520
Speaker 1: like a chill dude man. And uh, when I was

423
00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:16,480
Speaker 1: in high school, asked my coach to play one play

424
00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:18,480
Speaker 1: on the line, just I can feel it, right, got

425
00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 1: pancakes of course, right, just throw it to the ground.

426
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:24,200
Speaker 1: Much respect off of alignment. But there's so much contact

427
00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:26,960
Speaker 1: with you guys. Do you talk a little bit or

428
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:28,520
Speaker 1: do you kind of just do your job and get

429
00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:30,640
Speaker 1: back to the home. Yeah, I'm not a talker. Um,

430
00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:33,320
Speaker 1: I just do you want all? I really do. Can

431
00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:35,440
Speaker 1: you imagine if Phil you seem so nice, if Phil

432
00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:37,680
Speaker 1: was actually like the worst on the field I've seen

433
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:42,240
Speaker 1: jobbing NonStop for like, oh, you guys talked to Phil Haynes.

434
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:45,600
Speaker 1: He's awful. I'm telling you, the nice guy is always

435
00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:49,480
Speaker 1: scared me in the most right right the switch, it's bad.

436
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:53,440
Speaker 1: Right there, you go, that's the way to be absolutely well.

437
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:56,359
Speaker 1: What about some of the what about the two young fellows?

438
00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:59,040
Speaker 1: Those guys played really well and you know them coming

439
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:01,160
Speaker 1: into the system and every thing. I like it. Maybe

440
00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:03,399
Speaker 1: I'm wrong about this, but I think Abraham Lucas is

441
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:06,680
Speaker 1: kind of grumpy. Yeah, it looks like he might be,

442
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:09,480
Speaker 1: like he looks pissed off. Yeah I love that. Yeah,

443
00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:12,280
Speaker 1: I mean in meetings that look over he just looks

444
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:16,600
Speaker 1: mean wow. But he's a great guy. I mean they're

445
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:18,520
Speaker 1: they're both coming along really well in the system, and

446
00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:20,399
Speaker 1: they again better every day. I'm very excited for that.

447
00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:24,000
Speaker 1: Both those guys great out pretty well. I think so yeah, absolutely,

448
00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:28,240
Speaker 1: if I walk through, like who's the this? Who's the this?

449
00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:29,720
Speaker 1: Would you be able to tell me on the line

450
00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:31,800
Speaker 1: or in the offensive line room? Like who's the funniest,

451
00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:36,840
Speaker 1: funniest I'm Gabe Jackson for sure. Okay, who who who

452
00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:40,720
Speaker 1: can be the toughest? The toughest Austin blythe Austin Blaine.

453
00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:43,320
Speaker 1: Who was the most intimidating for you to be around

454
00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:45,320
Speaker 1: at first? Maybe because you're a younger guy. I mean,

455
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:46,960
Speaker 1: you've been here a while, but still some of these

456
00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:49,960
Speaker 1: guys older most intimidating. That's tough, I think, I might

457
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:53,760

479
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:55,560

482
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:02,800
Speaker 1: because you're watching the last three games and stuff like that.

483

Speaker 1: he's saying this because I love your game. Man. I

529
00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:22,320
Speaker 1: know that you played receiver first and then you shift

530
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:25,199
Speaker 1: over to the dB position. And when I saw you

531
00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:28,119
Speaker 1: got drafted, I'm like four two four two forty with

532
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:29,840
Speaker 1: like six to four or something like that. I'm like,

533
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:31,679
Speaker 1: I just want to see what he looks like on

534
00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:34,320
Speaker 1: the field. And on Monday, you just look comfortable. You

535
00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:37,080
Speaker 1: made a play where you sealed the ash boom, put

536
00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:39,159
Speaker 1: a dude on his butt, bam made the tackle, and

537
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:41,080
Speaker 1: you came off on my Oh that's a stinger right there.

538
00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:43,680
Speaker 1: He got into it. What was it like just being

539
00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:45,879
Speaker 1: out there in the NFL, like a I'm a corner

540
00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:47,240
Speaker 1: in the league. That has to be a great moment

541
00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:51,480
Speaker 1: for you. Yeah, it was just because you know, it

542
00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:53,800
Speaker 1: was just my first game. You're gonna gets Russell and

543
00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:56,680
Speaker 1: then you're gonna gets a good group of receivers. So

544
00:24:57,400 --> 00:24:59,680
Speaker 1: just being able to make plays, that's all I wanted

545
00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:02,680
Speaker 1: to do. And you know, I never want to overthink

546
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:04,600
Speaker 1: anything and be like, oh, I gotta make this play,

547
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:06,360
Speaker 1: this play. I just was trying to, you know, make

548
00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:09,159
Speaker 1: plays and like the ones that came to me, and

549
00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:11,239
Speaker 1: that was the one that came to me and sho,

550
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:14,000
Speaker 1: I had to sit the end. I just made a

551
00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:16,800
Speaker 1: play and she was you know, sometimes you just get

552
00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 1: banged up a little bit. Yeah, please keep doing that.

553
00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:23,960
Speaker 1: That was my favorite player of the whole game. Who's

554
00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:26,159
Speaker 1: coming from an old school linebacker right here? Who's the

555
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:29,280
Speaker 1: guy you dumped? Was it handler? And then you tackled something?

556
00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:36,560
Speaker 1: Uh no, it was big number thirty three. Yeah, he

557
00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:38,560
Speaker 1: put it like you look at the video, like he

558
00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:40,720
Speaker 1: lowered his head, he put his head down and then

559
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:42,880
Speaker 1: like it hit the like the top of my shoulder

560
00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:45,760
Speaker 1: got But I mean, that's just such a bonus for

561
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:48,800
Speaker 1: corners because and Richard Sherman. I've always said I thought

562
00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:52,080
Speaker 1: Richard Sherman was the best tackling corner in NFL history.

563
00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,240
Speaker 1: A lot of people say, no, it was this guy that,

564
00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 1: but but I mean that's kind of it's it's not

565
00:25:56,920 --> 00:25:59,560
Speaker 1: really so much in the job description to come up

566
00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:02,359
Speaker 1: and blow somebody up, So when you do that at corner,

567
00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:04,800
Speaker 1: it's just it's just a bonus. Man. I love that.

568
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:08,720
Speaker 1: I appreciate you set you set the tone basically, right yea, yeah,

569
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:12,119
Speaker 1: Well tell us about you know kind of some you know,

570
00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:13,879
Speaker 1: you had a penalty, and then you came back and

571
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:15,679
Speaker 1: played it really well. And I mean I felt like

572
00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:18,080
Speaker 1: it was like that's a necessary thing to happen. You

573
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:21,600
Speaker 1: got to learn from your mistakes. And it seems like

574
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:23,840
Speaker 1: does it feel that way that, like, Okay, now I

575
00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:25,840
Speaker 1: know what not to do. How much did you learn

576
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:29,080
Speaker 1: in that game? I should say, oh, just you know

577
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:32,920
Speaker 1: how like you know, like how much you can grab

578
00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:35,960
Speaker 1: yeah guy, and just you know hot tig Taki the

579
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:40,800
Speaker 1: resk and v sometimes just because earlier in the game,

580
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:43,320
Speaker 1: I like do running a favor ball, but it was

581
00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:45,760
Speaker 1: just like like a runoff, just so like it was

582
00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:47,840
Speaker 1: running the ball. So he just run me off and

583
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:51,359
Speaker 1: I remember pressing him and then like down the field,

584
00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:53,320
Speaker 1: I look like just gave him like a little like

585
00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:55,679
Speaker 1: a little press like job and then Reff was like,

586
00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:58,480
Speaker 1: oh you can't do that, blah blah blah blah. That okay.

587
00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 1: I mean it was new to me because like at

588
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:03,679
Speaker 1: practice we got rest there and I rarely, you know,

589
00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:08,720
Speaker 1: get like penalized. So whenever the first passing of friends came,

590
00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:12,040
Speaker 1: I didn't think it was a pause. I looked both ways,

591
00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:14,399
Speaker 1: like trying to at least adjust to the ball, and

592
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:16,480
Speaker 1: he was grabbing me. So it's like one of those

593
00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:18,760
Speaker 1: vet moves, you know, guy's events. They can sell it

594
00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,199
Speaker 1: pretty good. And then the second one, it was just

595
00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:24,360
Speaker 1: an obvious one. But it was just me just trying

596
00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:25,800
Speaker 1: to catch up on the guy. He was coming from

597
00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:27,920
Speaker 1: across the field and I've seen it and I ran

598
00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:31,480
Speaker 1: to him and then rusting through the ball just you know, downfield.

599
00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:33,440
Speaker 1: So I just was trying to catch up man. Yeah,

600
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:35,480
Speaker 1: did the older guys tell you maybe talk to the

601
00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:38,240
Speaker 1: officials a little bit? Like, because I feel like the officials,

602
00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:40,119
Speaker 1: I mean they were usually the feelings and everything, but

603
00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:42,480
Speaker 1: they will help you. They'll say, because I had a

604
00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:45,040
Speaker 1: couple of times where I hit somebody and they're like, hey,

605
00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:46,679
Speaker 1: you do that again, I'm gonna have to throw a

606
00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:49,040
Speaker 1: flag on Yeah, they kind of. Did you get any

607
00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:51,720
Speaker 1: of that? Did you have any conversation with those guys? Oh? No,

608
00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:54,359
Speaker 1: I just out there playing, to be honest. It's just

609
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:58,240
Speaker 1: I just, you know, learn from our mistakes and shoot.

610
00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:01,440
Speaker 1: Just this league, I improved on it even more. But no.

611
00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:04,840
Speaker 1: Sometimes I'll talk to a referend college, but as a rookie,

612
00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:07,040
Speaker 1: I just be like, you know what I mean, you

613
00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:09,840
Speaker 1: know how any like as much pool as a guy

614
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:11,919
Speaker 1: that's a star in the league. So I just go

615
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:14,160
Speaker 1: out there and just go about my business. That makes sense.

616
00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:17,760
Speaker 1: Two quick questions. Number one, could you hear your teammates

617
00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:19,280
Speaker 1: next to you? What was the crowd noise like when

618
00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:21,440
Speaker 1: you're out there? Oh yeah, no, it was crazy. I

619
00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:24,480
Speaker 1: remember the first player on the defensive drive they had

620
00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:27,720
Speaker 1: called of play. Yeah, I was in the hood. I'm like, hunt.

621
00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:31,359
Speaker 1: I tried to put my ear inside, like because the

622
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 1: D line they all in there, and then it's like

623
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:36,280
Speaker 1: the secondary it's kind of like on the outside of them.

624
00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:38,920
Speaker 1: So I was just in the hood, like a little

625
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:41,640
Speaker 1: too far away. I don't understand. Yeah, because that practice

626
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:44,240
Speaker 1: is like you had the right distance, like you close

627
00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:46,080
Speaker 1: and you're looking at me, you can hear him, and

628
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:48,160
Speaker 1: then the game you're looking at him and you think

629
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:51,680
Speaker 1: he just like just like mumbling or something, or you

630
00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:54,120
Speaker 1: just think his mouth moving, but no noise coming out

631
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:56,360
Speaker 1: for you. I mean, was that at that point? Do

632
00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:57,600
Speaker 1: you get out there and you're like, Okay, did I

633
00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:01,440
Speaker 1: understand the play? Did I understand what we're doing here? Shoot?

634
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:04,800
Speaker 1: After that, like first series, that kind of like went

635
00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:06,880
Speaker 1: out the window a little bit because I just made

636
00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:09,760
Speaker 1: sure Chenna. I just liked Chenna. If I didn't hear,

637
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:12,479
Speaker 1: just echoed to me because like he was closer to me.

638
00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:14,680
Speaker 1: So I just like, oh, okay, what's the call? I

639
00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:16,880
Speaker 1: ask him? If I didn't hear it in the huddle.

640
00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:20,160
Speaker 1: All right, Well, congratulations on not only earning the starting job,

641
00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:23,120
Speaker 1: but a very fantastic week one against Denver. Good luck

642
00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:26,040
Speaker 1: and we two. Terke appreciate sir. All right. He is

643
00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:30,480
Speaker 1: Sacks starting cornerback Teriq Wollen, also a starter as a rookie.

644
00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:33,440
Speaker 1: Do not go anywhere. More of the the huddle coming your way. Next,

645
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:36,840
Speaker 1: you are listening to the huddle with Dave Wyman, Michael Bumpus,

646
00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:40,920
Speaker 1: and Stacy Ross. Let's hear from the starting quarterback Geno Smith. Now, yeah,

647
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:44,240
Speaker 1: I think you know, in order to develop pocket presents,

648
00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:46,920
Speaker 1: it just takes a lot of drill work. Our coach,

649
00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:49,680
Speaker 1: quarterback coach Dave Canalis and even Austin Davis. You know,

650
00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:52,320
Speaker 1: they take us through a ton of drills and h

651
00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:55,280
Speaker 1: you know, Coach Carol likes to show it during the

652
00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:57,920
Speaker 1: team meetings. You know just how those things show up,

653
00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:00,320
Speaker 1: and so all the drill work that we do during

654
00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:02,800
Speaker 1: the week, Um, those things show up on game day,

655
00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:05,560
Speaker 1: and obviously there's ways to improve and things that I

656
00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:08,360
Speaker 1: can improve on as well, you know, with the pocket presence.

657
00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:10,520
Speaker 1: But overall it's just a ton of drill work and

658
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:12,920
Speaker 1: just you know, rapping over and over and over. Is

659
00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:15,120
Speaker 1: that one of those things too my experience, you know,

660
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:20,960
Speaker 1: as I need to know something too, Yes, yes, yes,

661
00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:23,320
Speaker 1: of course. And we also talk about like the depth

662
00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:25,000
Speaker 1: of your drops, you know, in the pocket, and making

663
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 1: sure you're not too deep because obviously, you know, it

664
00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:29,320
Speaker 1: makes it tough one the tackles and things like that,

665
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:31,920
Speaker 1: so um, you know, being mindful of how deep you're

666
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:33,800
Speaker 1: getting on your drops as well as just you know,

667
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,400
Speaker 1: climbing up into the pocket as well. What did your

668
00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:39,720
Speaker 1: phone look like Monday night? Oh man, A lot of

669
00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:41,640
Speaker 1: a lot of you know, old friends, a lot of

670
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:44,080
Speaker 1: old coaches were texting me, and it was all positive

671
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:46,720
Speaker 1: stuff and you know, I think people were really excited

672
00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:49,240
Speaker 1: and just happy for me. Overall. You get a record

673
00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:52,320
Speaker 1: deal yet for free bar, not yet, not yet, not yet,

674
00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:55,720
Speaker 1: looking looking out for it though, and peace birthday obviously

675
00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:57,880
Speaker 1: that yeah, you've been here for you What do you

676
00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:01,400
Speaker 1: learn from him? The most safe thing? Well, first of all,

677
00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:04,560
Speaker 1: shout out coach Coach Carroll every birthday, Coach Carol. And uh,

678
00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:06,320
Speaker 1: you know, one thing that I've learned from Coach is

679
00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:10,080
Speaker 1: uh just that that mindset, you know, having that positive mindset,

680
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:12,880
Speaker 1: you know, always you know, believing in yourself, believing in

681
00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:15,920
Speaker 1: the guys around you, and then positive self talk. You know,

682
00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:18,000
Speaker 1: Coach Carroll is one of the best coaches I've ever had,

683
00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:20,280
Speaker 1: and I think one of the reasons is because he's

684
00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:23,480
Speaker 1: so positive and that he truly believes, you know, that

685
00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:26,959
Speaker 1: anything's possible. And just having a guy like that, uh,

686
00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:30,240
Speaker 1: continuing to push us and having us compete every day. Uh,

687
00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:33,360
Speaker 1: as well as just being positive. Uh, you know, it's awesome.

688
00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:37,120
Speaker 1: You're I ain't right back to stayment, got a lot

689
00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:38,640
Speaker 1: of attention. Can you take this through again? Kind of

690
00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:39,680
Speaker 1: the words you know that I mean you thought that

691
00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:42,920
Speaker 1: about the spider. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that was just spur

692
00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:45,880
Speaker 1: of the moment, and uh, you know it really just means, uh,

693
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:48,000
Speaker 1: you know, I didn't respond or I didn't pay attention

694
00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:50,840
Speaker 1: to anything that was said, but you know, the wording

695
00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:52,280
Speaker 1: and all that type of stuff just kind of came

696
00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:54,360
Speaker 1: to me and really was just spur of the moment.

697
00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:59,600
Speaker 1: Monday was an emotional night. How do you kind of

698
00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:02,800
Speaker 1: put the emotions aside now and focus on the forty

699
00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:05,760
Speaker 1: nine ers and make sure that Monday night wasn't you know,

700
00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:08,440
Speaker 1: the emotional high of the season. Well, you know that's

701
00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:10,840
Speaker 1: a good question. Uh, you know for us h and

702
00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:13,000
Speaker 1: me especially, I just went back to work the next day,

703
00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:15,320
Speaker 1: you know, got right into the weight room and uh

704
00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:18,240
Speaker 1: jump right into San fran and just diving into work.

705
00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:20,640
Speaker 1: You know, that's the That's the great thing about you know,

706
00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:23,680
Speaker 1: being in the NFL is every week is a championship week,

707
00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:25,960
Speaker 1: and you know you're always going to have a tough opponent,

708
00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:28,360
Speaker 1: and you know, you really it's not about what you

709
00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:29,880
Speaker 1: did last week, is what you what you do in

710
00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:32,920
Speaker 1: the present moment. And so for us, it's about, you know,

711
00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:35,520
Speaker 1: like you said, not riding that emotional high and just

712
00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:38,160
Speaker 1: continuing to focus on the work in the process and

713
00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:40,840
Speaker 1: then you know, as the games come along, expecting to

714
00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:43,040
Speaker 1: win and then just getting back to getting back to work.

715
00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:46,600
Speaker 1: Forty R's defense and their fronts have particular a lot

716
00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:49,720
Speaker 1: of weapons or head he attackingtuff like that. You know,

717
00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:52,320
Speaker 1: you gotta goes back to you know what he said

718
00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:54,440
Speaker 1: about you know, work in the pocket and being you know,

719
00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:57,160
Speaker 1: being really strong in the pocket. Um, you know, they

720
00:32:57,240 --> 00:32:59,440
Speaker 1: have a great front seven. Uh, they have a great

721
00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:02,800
Speaker 1: defense over were all, and another test for us um

722
00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:05,120
Speaker 1: as an offense is going to test our offensive line,

723
00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:08,520
Speaker 1: going to test our running backs and protections and so uh,

724
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:11,000
Speaker 1: you know, really for us, it's you know, doing what

725
00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:15,280
Speaker 1: we do best, controlling what we control and playing our game,

726
00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:17,479
Speaker 1: but also being mindful that they do have a lot

727
00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:20,720
Speaker 1: of great guys on that side. What's the challenge and

728
00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:22,680
Speaker 1: balancing after tween taking shots down to you all and

729
00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:24,920
Speaker 1: then just started taking what the defense gives you and Canada,

730
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:27,200
Speaker 1: you know, I guess trying to make sure you take

731
00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:31,400
Speaker 1: some shots and times. But yeah, yeah, you know, the

732
00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:33,760
Speaker 1: main thing is just, um, like you said, taking what

733
00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:36,720
Speaker 1: the defense gives you, you know, whether it's downfield, intermediate

734
00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:38,720
Speaker 1: or in the short game. Um. You know, in this

735
00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:41,560
Speaker 1: past this previous game, they were playing you know, more

736
00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:43,720
Speaker 1: of a shell defense, so they weren't going to allow

737
00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:45,960
Speaker 1: us to take shots. And uh, it's best that we

738
00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:48,160
Speaker 1: don't try and force those things and we just stay

739
00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:50,239
Speaker 1: efficient and stay on schedule, and you know you can

740
00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:52,200
Speaker 1: win that way as well. And so it's just really

741
00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:54,520
Speaker 1: about what the defense is giving you. The looks, they're

742
00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:56,360
Speaker 1: giving you, the leverage and all that type of stuff.

743
00:33:56,760 --> 00:34:01,720
Speaker 1: What flexibilities and three ten ends giving your Yeah, those

744
00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:05,080
Speaker 1: guys have done an amazing job and they all have

745
00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:07,600
Speaker 1: a tremendous skill set, and so what they give us

746
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:10,400
Speaker 1: is the opportunity to you know, switch up personnels and

747
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:12,640
Speaker 1: still be able to run the same type of offense

748
00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:15,279
Speaker 1: and still be effective. So when you got guys like Noah,

749
00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:18,120
Speaker 1: who you know is a tight end hybrid slash receiver,

750
00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:20,640
Speaker 1: he's got speed, he's got hands, got routes as well

751
00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:24,000
Speaker 1: as Kobe Parkinson, um, you know, and will justly the same. Um.

752
00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:26,040
Speaker 1: You know, you can line up in a multitude of

753
00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:29,680
Speaker 1: formations and you know, different personnels and still be able

754
00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:33,279
Speaker 1: to run your same offense, run three tight ends of

755
00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:35,919
Speaker 1: one time in your forty we've done in a bunch,

756
00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:37,440
Speaker 1: you know, we've done it a bunch. And it's more

757
00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:39,759
Speaker 1: so in the NFL, you know the game, than it

758
00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:42,600
Speaker 1: is in college. And uh, I think it's really effective

759
00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:44,520
Speaker 1: if you've got the right guys and you can you know,

760
00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:46,800
Speaker 1: you kind of manipulate some of the calls to the decense.

761
00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:51,160
Speaker 1: You said after the game. People maybe forgot you could

762
00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:53,359
Speaker 1: run or whatever. Have you been tied in the forty literally,

763
00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:54,560
Speaker 1: or you as fast as you were when you were

764
00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:57,120
Speaker 1: in West Virginia or anything. I don't know. I haven't

765
00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:59,320
Speaker 1: tied the forty anything like that. I still feel fast,

766
00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:00,919
Speaker 1: you know, I still I feel like I'm moving pretty

767
00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:03,640
Speaker 1: fast out there. So um yeah, I mean, you know,

768
00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:05,840
Speaker 1: people might have forgotten I gonna run or might not

769
00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:07,640
Speaker 1: about you know, I just you know, said that, But

770
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:09,800
Speaker 1: I still feel pretty good out there when I'm running.

771
00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:11,800
Speaker 1: Took a couple of big hits on those back to

772
00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:14,040
Speaker 1: back grounds how to do feel the Tuesday before him,

773
00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:16,480
Speaker 1: I felt pretty good. I felt pretty good while I

774
00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:17,719
Speaker 1: was in the weight room. You know, I was just

775
00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:19,960
Speaker 1: hitting the weights and you know, kind of got back

776
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:22,080
Speaker 1: to my routine. You know, I've never been a guy

777
00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:25,040
Speaker 1: who's gotten extremely sore after games. You know, I don't

778
00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:27,399
Speaker 1: know if that's adrenaline or just you know, being used

779
00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:29,200
Speaker 1: to taking hits and just playing and stuff like that.

780
00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:31,640
Speaker 1: So I felt pretty good after the game, and you know,

781
00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:35,440
Speaker 1: hopefully that continues. You know, passer rating has its plausitive

782
00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:38,839
Speaker 1: stat but four of your best ten passer rating games

783
00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:41,000
Speaker 1: of your career. I've come in your last four starts, Tier,

784
00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:43,320
Speaker 1: does that kind of speak to some of the progression

785
00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:45,160
Speaker 1: and feel you've made as a passer through the years,

786
00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:48,799
Speaker 1: and you're you're handling the position. You know, I think

787
00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:50,759
Speaker 1: it could be or it could not be out you know,

788
00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:53,040
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think that's a kind of a

789
00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:55,160
Speaker 1: stretch to say that, but uh, you know, I do

790
00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:58,719
Speaker 1: realize that I've been more consistent lately, and you know,

791
00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:01,000
Speaker 1: the passer rating and all that type of stuff. You know,

792
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:02,880
Speaker 1: you don't really want to look too far into that

793
00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:05,560
Speaker 1: because the wins are what matter. But I think it

794
00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:08,839
Speaker 1: just comes from consistently taking completions and trying to keep

795
00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:10,840
Speaker 1: the team on schedule and just you know, doing the

796
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:13,400
Speaker 1: right things. It was a difference in the offense in

797
00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:15,960
Speaker 1: the first half and the second half on Monday. Uh,

798
00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:17,800
Speaker 1: you know, I think the difference between our offense in

799
00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:19,920
Speaker 1: the first half and the second half was, you know,

800
00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:22,000
Speaker 1: the number of possessions. I think we only had about

801
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:25,680
Speaker 1: three possessions in the second half. Obviously we didn't convert

802
00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:28,279
Speaker 1: the third downs that we were converting in the first half,

803
00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:30,160
Speaker 1: as well as you know, had a penalty that kind

804
00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:33,040
Speaker 1: of stalled our drive there. So overall, I just think

805
00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:35,320
Speaker 1: it was the lack of possessions and then uh some

806
00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:37,480
Speaker 1: some things that we could have executed a lot better.

807
00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:39,080
Speaker 1: You know, I could have stepped up in the pocket

808
00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:42,239
Speaker 1: and really protected our tackle Charles Cross. But you know,

809
00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:44,120
Speaker 1: both of those guys did a great job in the game.

810
00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:45,880
Speaker 1: And you know, I think if I step up a

811
00:36:45,920 --> 00:36:47,920
Speaker 1: little bit more in the pocket there, you know, may

812
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:50,239
Speaker 1: not take that sack and may not get hit. How

813
00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:53,080
Speaker 1: are you supposed to know that that pressure is coming

814
00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:54,520
Speaker 1: when you get your back and turned to I mean,

815
00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:57,080
Speaker 1: people talk about making a feel for that, but how

816
00:36:57,120 --> 00:36:58,400
Speaker 1: do you how do you actually feel it when you

817
00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:01,520
Speaker 1: can't see it. You know, it's tough, you know, that's

818
00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:03,400
Speaker 1: the hard part about playing quarterback is that you know

819
00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:05,279
Speaker 1: you don't have odds in the back of your head.

820
00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:07,560
Speaker 1: But what I can do is, like I said, step

821
00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:09,719
Speaker 1: up in the pocket and just make sure that when

822
00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:11,920
Speaker 1: I am taking my drops, I'm not too deep to

823
00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:13,960
Speaker 1: where they get an edge on our tackles and have

824
00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:17,120
Speaker 1: that you know, opportunity to come around there. Going into

825
00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:19,080
Speaker 1: the West Virginia Hall of Fames, does that mean to you?

826
00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:22,040
Speaker 1: It means it means a lot. You know, I know

827
00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:24,360
Speaker 1: it means a lot to my my family. Um, you know,

828
00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:25,960
Speaker 1: just going to college, you know, it was a big

829
00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:28,600
Speaker 1: thing for me and obviously you know, had a lot

830
00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:31,120
Speaker 1: of great memories there. Uh and you know, just to

831
00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:34,080
Speaker 1: be honored in this way, it's extremely special to me.

832
00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:38,080
Speaker 1: You trained with Decay on the off season his rookie

833
00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:40,960
Speaker 1: year before he got to the season. Uh. Yeah, we

834
00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:42,960
Speaker 1: had a we had a couple of sessions. Um, we

835
00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:44,680
Speaker 1: had a couple of sessions. He was down there training

836
00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:48,080
Speaker 1: with this you know, receiver coach guru type of guy,

837
00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:50,200
Speaker 1: and got a chance to meet him, and I mean

838
00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:52,400
Speaker 1: I was impressed them from the very first day I

839
00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:55,000
Speaker 1: met him, and you know we always kind of connecting

840
00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:57,840
Speaker 1: the off season ever since then. Besides how big he was,

841
00:37:57,880 --> 00:37:59,400
Speaker 1: what else maybe he stood out about him when you

842
00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:01,920
Speaker 1: first met him, just as suddenness, you know, just as

843
00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:04,479
Speaker 1: suddenness and the you know, big guys like that really

844
00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:06,719
Speaker 1: rarely do they move the way he does and or

845
00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:09,000
Speaker 1: you know, have the quick twitch and the footwork that

846
00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:10,920
Speaker 1: he has. And so just for you know, got to

847
00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:13,560
Speaker 1: be that big, that explosive and to be able to

848
00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:15,239
Speaker 1: shut it down the way that he does. I think

849
00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:21,719
Speaker 1: it's rare here. Yeah, thank you. One one more thing man,

850
00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:23,800
Speaker 1: shout out Jamal Adams man you know, praying for a

851
00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:28,200

Speaker 1: down this preview, it is Ray Roberts, part of the

866
00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:08,359
Speaker 1: guys doing We're well, obviously really excited following this win.

867
00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:11,080
Speaker 1: There's still so many questions about this team, but what

868
00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:13,880
Speaker 1: a way to start the season here. Ray, Oh, it

869
00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:18,200
Speaker 1: was awesome. I mean I took a few times out

870
00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:20,160
Speaker 1: of the press box and just went into the stadium

871
00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:22,719
Speaker 1: just so I get here and fill the noise, and

872
00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:25,279
Speaker 1: it was just unbelievable, Like it was just really hard

873
00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:27,920
Speaker 1: to even stand in the lower bowl and talk to

874
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:29,959
Speaker 1: the person right next to you. So it was super

875
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:32,279
Speaker 1: exciting to be able to fill that and then for

876
00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:34,000
Speaker 1: the team to come out and play the way they did.

877
00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:35,279
Speaker 1: And you know, if you want to call it Ben,

878
00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:38,600
Speaker 1: but don't break or gutty or gritty or whatever you

879
00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:41,000
Speaker 1: want to call it. The optic of the game is

880
00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:43,560
Speaker 1: to get to win, and they got to win. Big Gray.

881
00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:45,600
Speaker 1: We spoke to Phil Haines and I'm gonna go out

882
00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:48,120
Speaker 1: and say that he is a big Ray kind of guy. Man.

883
00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:51,320
Speaker 1: What did you see from him this weekend or this

884
00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:55,000
Speaker 1: Monday against the Broncos. Yeah, well, you know, I think

885
00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:58,640
Speaker 1: that there's not a whole maybe a little bit of

886
00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:02,120
Speaker 1: physicality is a drop off between him and Damian Lewis,

887
00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:04,640
Speaker 1: but he always shows himself. Well, he did have like

888
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:07,919
Speaker 1: the one holding called it that brought a run back,

889
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:10,960
Speaker 1: but he looks like the dude that I think they

890
00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:12,960
Speaker 1: thought they drafted a few years ago, and he had

891
00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:15,680
Speaker 1: to overcome some injuries. But I've always thought of him

892
00:40:15,719 --> 00:40:19,040
Speaker 1: as like a DJ Fluker type player, but with a

893
00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:21,759
Speaker 1: little bit more athleticism. And so he's starting to show

894
00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:24,439
Speaker 1: that with the more reps he gets, and they feel

895
00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:27,839
Speaker 1: very comfortable having him in there, and so I thought

896
00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:30,440
Speaker 1: it was great that I didn't have to take my

897
00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:34,839
Speaker 1: attention up off the tackles to try to check him

898
00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:36,960
Speaker 1: out as much because they were doing such a good

899
00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:39,520
Speaker 1: job in past protection and they were creating lanes for

900
00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:42,719
Speaker 1: a penny to to run the ball about the two

901
00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:47,480
Speaker 1: young fellows, Ray your tackles, How do you think they performed? Yeah,

902
00:40:47,560 --> 00:40:49,160
Speaker 1: you know, I thought they did pretty good, you know

903
00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:53,520
Speaker 1: for the first game, and the places where they didn't

904
00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:58,680
Speaker 1: show as well, I think are all coachable, correctable things.

905
00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:02,279
Speaker 1: It wasn't a matter of ability. So for instance, M.

906
00:41:02,640 --> 00:41:05,560
Speaker 1: Charles Cross, I think was kind of a little bit

907
00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:09,239
Speaker 1: um wary of speed, and so he was in his

908
00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:12,480
Speaker 1: past protection, was trying to get back so fast that

909
00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:15,640
Speaker 1: he ended up being head up with the defender. And

910
00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:18,160
Speaker 1: when you're a head up with the defender, you give

911
00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:21,640
Speaker 1: him inside leverage or or he can have outside leverage.

912
00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:24,320
Speaker 1: So I always tell guys if you're even they're leaving,

913
00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:26,840
Speaker 1: so they're they're either going to go inside or or

914
00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:28,520
Speaker 1: they're gonna get you around in the corner. So I

915
00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:30,759
Speaker 1: just think he just needs to trust that he can

916
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:33,520
Speaker 1: play a little bit behind on that inside shoulder and

917
00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:35,359
Speaker 1: then uh and then be able to run the guy

918
00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:37,560
Speaker 1: around the corner. And so then in the running game,

919
00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:39,640
Speaker 1: I just think that Charles just needs to get his

920
00:41:39,719 --> 00:41:42,360
Speaker 1: pass down a little lore and uh and then a

921
00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:45,120
Speaker 1: little bit more physical violent with his hands. And then

922
00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:48,320
Speaker 1: Big Abe just kept building on his resume. Man, he

923
00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:50,440
Speaker 1: I think the first running play of the game, he

924
00:41:50,560 --> 00:41:53,000
Speaker 1: had a pancake, you know, and so a lot of

925
00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:55,160
Speaker 1: people were saying that, you know, he was doing his

926
00:41:55,239 --> 00:41:58,520
Speaker 1: stuff against backups in the preseason, but it doesn't seem

927
00:41:58,560 --> 00:42:03,120
Speaker 1: like the starter are going to be any more safe

928
00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:06,080
Speaker 1: from getting flat backed than anyone else. And then uh,

929
00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:07,920
Speaker 1: and I thought he did a pretty good job in

930
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:10,640
Speaker 1: pass attach. And so I still think that those two

931
00:42:10,719 --> 00:42:12,439
Speaker 1: dues are going to be around for a long time.

932
00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:15,440
Speaker 1: The things that they need to that they struggle with,

933
00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:16,919
Speaker 1: if you want to call it that, in the game,

934
00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:20,600
Speaker 1: all things that can be corrected literally in like two

935
00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:24,360
Speaker 1: days of practice. Now, this might be an overreaction, it

936
00:42:24,520 --> 00:42:27,239
Speaker 1: might just be an easy narrative to have, but um,

937
00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:30,480
Speaker 1: there were a couple of folks, whether it was broadcasters

938
00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:33,080
Speaker 1: for the game or critics watching the game, who said, ironically,

939
00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:36,160
Speaker 1: considering the issues of predating Russell Wilson being traded from Seattle,

940
00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:39,040
Speaker 1: this could end up being the best offensive line Sales

941
00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:41,960
Speaker 1: had in several years. Do you see that potential potential

942
00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:45,359
Speaker 1: being keyword. It's you know, heading into week two, absolutely,

943
00:42:45,560 --> 00:42:49,320
Speaker 1: I mean, uh, you know, just from their top seven guys,

944
00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:53,520
Speaker 1: you know, the starters including uh, you know that's what

945
00:42:53,680 --> 00:42:57,680
Speaker 1: Damian Lewis started, and including Phil Haines and then Jake Kerrn. Uh.

946
00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:00,440
Speaker 1: To me, that's the best seven that they've had in

947
00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:03,320
Speaker 1: a long time. And I'm telling you the reason that

948
00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:06,120
Speaker 1: is that way, and I said this before, is they

949
00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:08,160
Speaker 1: went out and got dues to have PhDs in what

950
00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:10,920
Speaker 1: they do. They didn't go find a defensive linement that

951
00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:12,759
Speaker 1: they were trying to make a guard. It didn't find

952
00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:14,440
Speaker 1: a center that they were trying to make the tackle.

953
00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:16,560
Speaker 1: They didn't find a tackle that they were trying to

954
00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:18,160
Speaker 1: make center and all this stuff. They went out and

955
00:43:18,239 --> 00:43:21,160
Speaker 1: found tackles that have played tackle for a long time

956
00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:24,279
Speaker 1: and say, you know all the little nuances and all

957
00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:26,279
Speaker 1: the little things you have to learn to be able

958
00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:28,880
Speaker 1: to play offensive tackle effectively in the league. And then

959
00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:31,879
Speaker 1: they have guards that have played guards their entire life.

960
00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:33,799
Speaker 1: And they have a center who might be a little

961
00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:36,320
Speaker 1: bit undersized, but he's played, he's been a center, and

962
00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:38,480
Speaker 1: he's been in this system, and he's a great communicator.

963
00:43:38,560 --> 00:43:41,719
Speaker 1: So I think they have a chance to really I

964
00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:44,520
Speaker 1: think by the third part of the season, you may

965
00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:47,080
Speaker 1: be looking at one of the better offensive lines in

966
00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:49,680
Speaker 1: the league. You know whether they're top ten or twelve

967
00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:51,880
Speaker 1: or thirteen, but they will not be at the bottom

968
00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:54,760
Speaker 1: the way some of the people had them starting a season.

969
00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:57,200
Speaker 1: I think that was just based on them starting two

970
00:43:57,680 --> 00:44:00,759
Speaker 1: rookie left tackles, I mean two rookie tackles. But I

971
00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:02,800
Speaker 1: really like what they have up there. I like the

972
00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:05,759
Speaker 1: pocket that they were creating for Geno to throw from.

973
00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:07,759
Speaker 1: I like some of the lanes that they I thought

974
00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:09,719
Speaker 1: they got a little bit the running in got a

975
00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:12,279
Speaker 1: little bit too horizontal at times. I think it's better

976
00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:15,200
Speaker 1: when when they're getting downhill, like they were at the

977
00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:17,880
Speaker 1: last five games of the season. But I think that

978
00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:19,839
Speaker 1: this offensive line is going to do really well as

979
00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:23,359
Speaker 1: the season goes on. Yeah, dumbass. Pro Football Focus had

980
00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:30,000
Speaker 1: them ranked thirty second. Bump and y yeah you said, yeah,

981
00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:34,319
Speaker 1: they Pro Football put them at number thirty two. Yeah.

982
00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:36,640
Speaker 1: Pro Football Focus needs a punch in the throat. That's

983
00:44:36,640 --> 00:44:40,520
Speaker 1: what they do. That's such an old line response to throw.

984
00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:43,200
Speaker 1: That's what they do. That's what they do. Ray, how

985
00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:45,840
Speaker 1: do you how does the play calling build off of

986
00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:48,279
Speaker 1: what we saw last week? We saw some RPOs, We

987
00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:51,439
Speaker 1: saw the tight ends get involved, we saw the run

988
00:44:51,520 --> 00:44:53,800
Speaker 1: game get go on the boot. Is there something that

989
00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:56,239
Speaker 1: you need to see that says all right, well that

990
00:44:56,400 --> 00:44:58,759
Speaker 1: was week one. There are the wrinkles that we see

991
00:44:58,800 --> 00:45:02,520
Speaker 1: off of that. Yeah, well you know the cool thing

992
00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:06,000
Speaker 1: about this offense is there's uh, there's always run plays

993
00:45:06,040 --> 00:45:08,880
Speaker 1: off the pass action, and there's always pass plays off

994
00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:10,960
Speaker 1: the run action. So I think they were doing a

995
00:45:11,040 --> 00:45:12,960
Speaker 1: good job set some of that up. Like I even

996
00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:15,719
Speaker 1: liked the way they ran a counter one time, like

997
00:45:15,800 --> 00:45:18,680
Speaker 1: a true counter where they pulled the left guard and

998
00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:23,919
Speaker 1: left tackle. Unfortunately, they the Broncos had to do coming

999
00:45:23,960 --> 00:45:26,480
Speaker 1: off unblocked off the end that wasn't accounted for. But

1000
00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:28,800
Speaker 1: then they came back and ran an RPO off of that.

1001
00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:30,399
Speaker 1: When they threw the I think it was a quick

1002
00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:33,920
Speaker 1: slant to to a decay across the middle. So like

1003
00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:36,960
Speaker 1: stuff like that is what makes this offense unique. When

1004
00:45:37,239 --> 00:45:39,480
Speaker 1: the first two or three steps of a play you

1005
00:45:39,560 --> 00:45:41,240
Speaker 1: can't tell if it's the run or it's the pass,

1006
00:45:41,320 --> 00:45:42,960
Speaker 1: and so I think they did a really good job

1007
00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:45,719
Speaker 1: of setting that up. The one Like I said, the

1008
00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:48,480
Speaker 1: one thing I would like for them, I'd like to

1009
00:45:48,560 --> 00:45:50,880
Speaker 1: see is for them to get that kind of split

1010
00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:54,800
Speaker 1: zone where they're in the quarterbacks on the center. The

1011
00:45:54,920 --> 00:45:56,360
Speaker 1: running back is going to get the ball and his

1012
00:45:56,480 --> 00:46:00,000
Speaker 1: aiming point is the gap between the the right guard

1013
00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:03,160
Speaker 1: in the right tackle, but you're really kind of coming downhill,

1014
00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:06,160
Speaker 1: so you can flide backside and end up hitting the

1015
00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:10,239
Speaker 1: gap between the center and the left guard or the

1016
00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:12,759
Speaker 1: left guard and the left tackle. And so that's where

1017
00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:16,719
Speaker 1: Richard Penny made all his hate in the last five games.

1018
00:46:16,840 --> 00:46:20,960
Speaker 1: So I like that more downhill attacking approach versus getting

1019
00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:23,840
Speaker 1: two horizonal So I think if they can add some

1020
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:26,000
Speaker 1: of that a little bit more into that, and then

1021
00:46:26,040 --> 00:46:29,200
Speaker 1: they also kind of, you know, kind of through some

1022
00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:31,600
Speaker 1: of the fly motion and at one time. But like

1023
00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:34,040
Speaker 1: you would have loved this. They had the fly motion,

1024
00:46:34,719 --> 00:46:37,799
Speaker 1: they had the counter, and then they threw the ball

1025
00:46:37,960 --> 00:46:39,840
Speaker 1: off of all of that. So if you're a linebacker,

1026
00:46:39,960 --> 00:46:41,440
Speaker 1: you're trying to read all of that that he just

1027
00:46:41,520 --> 00:46:44,960
Speaker 1: handed the ball to the escritch or now is running

1028
00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:47,800
Speaker 1: back following the two to pulling you know lineman. Oh shoot,

1029
00:46:47,840 --> 00:46:50,120
Speaker 1: he's throwing the ball behind me. That kind of stuff

1030
00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:52,640
Speaker 1: is is? I hope? You know last year they started

1031
00:46:52,680 --> 00:46:54,319
Speaker 1: the season doing that kind of stuff and then all

1032
00:46:54,320 --> 00:46:57,759
Speaker 1: a sudden it disappeared. Hope it doesn't disappear this week. Yeah,

1033
00:46:57,840 --> 00:47:00,480
Speaker 1: no kidding. I'm very, very eager to see those running

1034
00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:02,719
Speaker 1: backs out there too. He is Ray Roberts. You can

1035
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:04,759
Speaker 1: hear them every single Thursday on the huddle with us,

1036
00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:07,200
Speaker 1: but also on the Seahawks pre and post game show. Ray,

1037
00:47:07,239 --> 00:47:09,960
Speaker 1: thanks so much for joining us. Hey, thanks for having me.

1038
00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:11,960
Speaker 1: I just had one question though, Like in the huddle,

1039
00:47:12,080 --> 00:47:15,440
Speaker 1: I'm the left tackle, bump as the receiver, Dave is

1040
00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:18,239
Speaker 1: the linebacker, which is weird than an offensive huddle, but

1041
00:47:18,320 --> 00:47:21,000
Speaker 1: we'll take him and he can put him at fullback

1042
00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:23,600
Speaker 1: or something. What are you, Stacy? Are you the quarterback?

1043
00:47:23,719 --> 00:47:27,200
Speaker 1: Like what resolutely. Absolutely. I'm the quarterback here, I'm the coach.

1044
00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:29,080
Speaker 1: I'm the coach. Let's be real, I'm the coach here.

1045
00:47:29,280 --> 00:47:31,160
Speaker 1: I need like the get back guy. I'm like yelling

1046
00:47:31,200 --> 00:47:36,040
Speaker 1: into my headset. Okay, I just wanted to make sure.

1047
00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:37,759
Speaker 1: I just wanted to make sure you know we had

1048
00:47:37,800 --> 00:47:40,839
Speaker 1: the whope, Pru. That's all. That's exactly right. That's exactly right.

1049
00:47:40,880 --> 00:47:43,640
Speaker 1: A good question, thanks, Ray, talk to next week. Do

1050
00:47:43,680 --> 00:47:46,800
Speaker 1: you guys ever good with all right? The Voice of

1051

Speaker 1: the Seahawks, Steve Rabel, joins us. Next, don't go anywhere.

1052
00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:52,440
Speaker 1: You are listening to the Huddle with Dave Wyman, Michael Bumpus,

1053
00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:55,480
Speaker 1: and Stacy Ross, joined now by the Voice of the Seahawks,

1054
00:47:55,520 --> 00:47:59,719
Speaker 1: Steve Rabel raves, how's it going. He's going great? How

1055
00:47:59,719 --> 00:48:02,440
Speaker 1: about you guys? We're fantastic Now. I do want to

1056
00:48:02,440 --> 00:48:04,200
Speaker 1: look ahead to week two, right, that is what we're

1057
00:48:04,200 --> 00:48:08,200
Speaker 1: doing today on the huddle. But first, Rabel, a fantastic

1058
00:48:08,440 --> 00:48:10,720
Speaker 1: game Monday. What might have been the moment that stands

1059
00:48:10,719 --> 00:48:14,120
Speaker 1: out to you most looking back at it? Oh? Wow,

1060
00:48:14,680 --> 00:48:16,919
Speaker 1: there were there were, you know, there were a number

1061
00:48:16,960 --> 00:48:19,719
Speaker 1: of them. I thought early in the game that that

1062
00:48:19,920 --> 00:48:22,560
Speaker 1: Gino kind of set the tone with his ability to

1063
00:48:22,680 --> 00:48:25,840
Speaker 1: kind of duck under a defender, scramble out of trouble,

1064
00:48:26,160 --> 00:48:28,760
Speaker 1: step forward in the pocket, and then find this wide

1065
00:48:28,800 --> 00:48:32,319
Speaker 1: open to give you the lead automatically. Now you're making

1066
00:48:32,440 --> 00:48:35,239
Speaker 1: Denver play from a position of catching up, which they

1067
00:48:35,320 --> 00:48:38,160
Speaker 1: never did, And so I thought that was as good

1068
00:48:38,200 --> 00:48:43,480
Speaker 1: a play as there was, perhaps offensive Leo. Although I'm

1069
00:48:43,480 --> 00:48:45,040
Speaker 1: sure one will come to me when we hang up

1070
00:48:45,080 --> 00:48:47,880
Speaker 1: the phone, but do we still say hang up the

1071
00:48:47,920 --> 00:48:50,319
Speaker 1: phone by the way, Yeah, yeah, nobody has a phone

1072
00:48:50,320 --> 00:48:54,080
Speaker 1: that you hang up anymore, Okay. And then you know, defensively,

1073
00:48:54,760 --> 00:48:59,000
Speaker 1: a couple of sacks getting to Russ and you know,

1074
00:48:59,160 --> 00:49:05,080
Speaker 1: there's a good reason why why Ouchenno got uh oh

1075
00:49:05,160 --> 00:49:08,399
Speaker 1: chenna knowls who got the defensive Player of the week,

1076
00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:10,799
Speaker 1: because he just made a lot of great plays as well.

1077
00:49:10,880 --> 00:49:12,520
Speaker 1: So there were a lot of great things to talk

1078
00:49:12,520 --> 00:49:16,719
Speaker 1: about after that game. Yeah, Rapes, what do you what

1079
00:49:16,800 --> 00:49:20,320
Speaker 1: do you think about Geno's performance? Like, did you? I

1080
00:49:20,360 --> 00:49:22,560
Speaker 1: don't know. I just was blown away, I thought, And

1081
00:49:22,600 --> 00:49:24,640
Speaker 1: I don't want to jump the gun on it or anything,

1082
00:49:24,719 --> 00:49:27,279
Speaker 1: but I just don't think we've seen that from him.

1083
00:49:27,320 --> 00:49:29,960
Speaker 1: He looked like especially the play where you know he

1084
00:49:30,040 --> 00:49:33,000
Speaker 1: throws to to Will Disley, but and then it continued.

1085
00:49:33,080 --> 00:49:35,160
Speaker 1: It wasn't like that was just luck. The throw to

1086
00:49:35,239 --> 00:49:38,239
Speaker 1: Kolbe Parkinson was probably the best. I mean, I don't know,

1087
00:49:38,239 --> 00:49:40,759
Speaker 1: I don't think that we've ever seen anything like that.

1088
00:49:40,880 --> 00:49:43,799
Speaker 1: I was really surprised. I you know, that sounds kind

1089
00:49:43,840 --> 00:49:47,000
Speaker 1: of like I'm being negative about Gino that I've never

1090
00:49:47,080 --> 00:49:49,160
Speaker 1: seen this from him before. But really, I mean, he

1091
00:49:49,280 --> 00:49:52,080
Speaker 1: just looked like he looked like he was entirely in

1092
00:49:52,239 --> 00:49:55,560
Speaker 1: control the entire game, right, Well, well think think about it.

1093
00:49:55,600 --> 00:49:57,960
Speaker 1: I mean, we we didn't see that kind of consistency

1094
00:49:58,040 --> 00:49:59,920
Speaker 1: when he was a young player back with the Jets.

1095
00:50:00,320 --> 00:50:02,400
Speaker 1: He also didn't have a very good team around him,

1096
00:50:02,440 --> 00:50:05,320
Speaker 1: so he struggled and eventually lost his job there. And

1097
00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:07,840
Speaker 1: then he's been a backup for all these years. A

1098
00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:09,960
Speaker 1: staff that I wish I could have gotten in and

1099
00:50:10,280 --> 00:50:12,200
Speaker 1: it was talked about a lot during the week, but

1100
00:50:12,320 --> 00:50:14,279
Speaker 1: I wish I wish we could have gotten it in

1101
00:50:14,400 --> 00:50:17,120
Speaker 1: on Monday night. And that was you know, he is.

1102
00:50:18,760 --> 00:50:22,040
Speaker 1: It was eight years from his last official starting you know,

1103
00:50:22,080 --> 00:50:25,719
Speaker 1: to start the opening season, and that hasn't happened since

1104
00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:28,800
Speaker 1: Zeke Bratkowski did it for the Packers back in the

1105
00:50:28,880 --> 00:50:32,080
Speaker 1: early sixties. I mean, that's how far you have to

1106
00:50:32,160 --> 00:50:34,480
Speaker 1: go back to find a quarterback who had had that

1107
00:50:34,719 --> 00:50:38,480
Speaker 1: kind of you know, layoff, if you will, from starting

1108
00:50:38,640 --> 00:50:41,680
Speaker 1: as as the official starter of the team. And he

1109
00:50:41,840 --> 00:50:44,920
Speaker 1: and he stepped up and he played like the starter.

1110
00:50:45,040 --> 00:50:47,960
Speaker 1: He ran that offense, you know, at one point with

1111
00:50:48,120 --> 00:50:50,759
Speaker 1: a thirteen for thirteen at one point, that's exactly the

1112
00:50:50,840 --> 00:50:53,319
Speaker 1: way you want to run that offense. And a couple

1113
00:50:53,360 --> 00:50:55,399
Speaker 1: of them, you know, we're great touchdown passes. It wasn't

1114
00:50:55,440 --> 00:50:59,239
Speaker 1: just dncon Duct So I agree. I think he even

1115
00:50:59,280 --> 00:51:00,759
Speaker 1: said it. He said, I'm I'm a better player now,

1116
00:51:00,840 --> 00:51:03,759
Speaker 1: I'm a more mature player. I see things better, I

1117
00:51:03,960 --> 00:51:07,320
Speaker 1: understand better all the things that you need from a quarterback.

1118
00:51:07,960 --> 00:51:09,640
Speaker 1: And you want to want him to do those kinds

1119
00:51:09,680 --> 00:51:14,640
Speaker 1: of things on Sunday or Monday night. He did Rabel.

1120
00:51:14,719 --> 00:51:18,680
Speaker 1: Going into last week's game, we expected Russell to let

1121
00:51:18,760 --> 00:51:20,279
Speaker 1: the ball go, throw it a bunch of times, through

1122
00:51:20,320 --> 00:51:22,520
Speaker 1: it forty two times, and then we assume that the

1123
00:51:22,600 --> 00:51:25,040
Speaker 1: Hawks will be more cautious when it comes to Geno

1124
00:51:25,120 --> 00:51:26,799
Speaker 1: throwing in the football. I look at the forty nine

1125
00:51:26,880 --> 00:51:28,880
Speaker 1: Ers and the Seahawks, and I say, yes, you got

1126
00:51:28,920 --> 00:51:31,160
Speaker 1: a veteran on one side, second year guy on the

1127
00:51:31,200 --> 00:51:34,520
Speaker 1: other side. But the approaches to this game might be similar. Right,

1128
00:51:34,680 --> 00:51:37,640
Speaker 1: lean on the run, take your chances when it comes

1129
00:51:37,640 --> 00:51:39,080
Speaker 1: to the pass game. What type of game are you

1130
00:51:39,160 --> 00:51:43,160
Speaker 1: expecting from both offenses this week? Yeah, that's exactly what

1131
00:51:43,280 --> 00:51:46,040
Speaker 1: I'm expecting. Now watch He'll they'll prove us wrong and

1132
00:51:46,640 --> 00:51:48,120
Speaker 1: the forty nine ers will come out and try to

1133
00:51:48,239 --> 00:51:51,479
Speaker 1: light it up. You know, let's start with the forty

1134
00:51:51,560 --> 00:51:54,360
Speaker 1: nine ers. You've got a couple of pretty good receivers,

1135
00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:58,040
Speaker 1: I mean, not the typical kind of speedy, although they've

1136
00:51:58,080 --> 00:52:00,880
Speaker 1: got speed. Ray Ray Mcloud's got some speed, but Deebo

1137
00:52:00,960 --> 00:52:03,920
Speaker 1: Samuel and Brandon Iook are both kind of bigger body

1138
00:52:03,960 --> 00:52:06,120
Speaker 1: guys who are run after the catch kind of guys.

1139
00:52:06,320 --> 00:52:08,120
Speaker 1: And then you got a fullback who does the same thing.

1140
00:52:08,239 --> 00:52:11,000
Speaker 1: Kyle Uschek is maybe the best fullback in the game,

1141
00:52:11,440 --> 00:52:15,640
Speaker 1: throwing Noah's versions, Nick Buloor's away. But Trey Lance he

1142
00:52:15,800 --> 00:52:18,439
Speaker 1: definitely can throw the ball downfield. He's just not quite

1143
00:52:18,480 --> 00:52:20,880
Speaker 1: as as accurate as maybe you'd like him to be.

1144
00:52:21,040 --> 00:52:24,560
Speaker 1: And he's a young guy. So with that all in mind,

1145
00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:27,239
Speaker 1: I expect to see Jeff Wilson Junior get more than

1146
00:52:27,320 --> 00:52:31,400
Speaker 1: his share of carries for the forty nine ers. Defensively,

1147
00:52:31,440 --> 00:52:34,200
Speaker 1: when you look at him, it sort of begs the question,

1148
00:52:34,239 --> 00:52:36,439
Speaker 1: if you can't run, you better be able to throw

1149
00:52:36,480 --> 00:52:39,919
Speaker 1: the control pass. And these guys have a terrific front four.

1150
00:52:40,360 --> 00:52:43,520
Speaker 1: They've got excellent linebackers. Fred Warner is maybe as good

1151
00:52:43,520 --> 00:52:46,640
Speaker 1: a linebacker in the middle as there is in football.

1152
00:52:47,280 --> 00:52:50,560
Speaker 1: And the secondary is good. I wouldn't say great, but

1153
00:52:50,680 --> 00:52:54,080
Speaker 1: i'd say good in the secondary. So you know you're

1154
00:52:54,120 --> 00:52:56,880
Speaker 1: gonna have to pick your spots and up you know.

1155
00:52:57,280 --> 00:53:00,560
Speaker 1: As as my old offensive coordinator, Jerry Rome used to

1156
00:53:00,600 --> 00:53:03,239
Speaker 1: say to Jim's Horn back in the day, believe what

1157
00:53:03,400 --> 00:53:07,239
Speaker 1: you see. If you are Gino Smith, believe what this

1158
00:53:07,440 --> 00:53:10,160
Speaker 1: defense is giving you. And if that means underneath routes,

1159
00:53:10,440 --> 00:53:12,239
Speaker 1: throw it. If that means a back out of the

1160
00:53:12,320 --> 00:53:15,560
Speaker 1: backfield wheeling down the sidelines, throw it. If that means

1161
00:53:15,600 --> 00:53:18,600
Speaker 1: a crossing route with a single high safety, throw it.

1162
00:53:18,760 --> 00:53:21,919
Speaker 1: But believe what you see. Wasn't there a story about

1163
00:53:22,040 --> 00:53:24,680
Speaker 1: Jerry Rome's two pay coming off and it was caught

1164
00:53:24,760 --> 00:53:31,240
Speaker 1: on front. It actually didn't come off. It came about

1165
00:53:31,320 --> 00:53:34,279
Speaker 1: halfway down his ear before he realized it was on

1166
00:53:34,400 --> 00:53:37,600
Speaker 1: its way to the ground. He got run into by

1167
00:53:37,719 --> 00:53:39,560
Speaker 1: the play kind of backed up into his lap, and

1168
00:53:39,640 --> 00:53:41,360
Speaker 1: he was looking at the play sheet to see what

1169
00:53:41,480 --> 00:53:43,719
Speaker 1: the next call was, and it kind of starting to

1170
00:53:43,760 --> 00:53:45,880
Speaker 1: slide down his head and so he grabbed it quickly

1171
00:53:46,200 --> 00:53:48,120
Speaker 1: and pushed it all in one movement. I mean, it

1172
00:53:48,239 --> 00:53:51,719
Speaker 1: was as smooth a move as I have ever seen.

1173
00:53:52,280 --> 00:53:54,880
Speaker 1: And then to give Jerry and it was a terrible too,

1174
00:53:55,040 --> 00:53:58,359
Speaker 1: by the way, And to give Jerry credit when after

1175
00:53:58,520 --> 00:54:01,680
Speaker 1: Jack was fired in in eighty two, at the end

1176
00:54:01,719 --> 00:54:03,720
Speaker 1: of the eighty two season, they let the whole staff

1177
00:54:03,800 --> 00:54:06,359
Speaker 1: go and Chuck came in and brought all his own

1178
00:54:06,400 --> 00:54:09,360
Speaker 1: guys in. Jerry and I wasn't in there, but the

1179
00:54:09,600 --> 00:54:13,200
Speaker 1: the story was that he took his two payoff and

1180
00:54:13,280 --> 00:54:15,960
Speaker 1: he laid it down on the trainers stable as he

1181
00:54:16,040 --> 00:54:18,560
Speaker 1: walked out of the building for the last time and

1182
00:54:19,640 --> 00:54:21,879
Speaker 1: he and he never wore one after that. But boy,

1183
00:54:22,040 --> 00:54:25,759
Speaker 1: was was he a good coach. Smart and you know,

1184
00:54:25,840 --> 00:54:28,080
Speaker 1: he had his hands full he was. He was the

1185
00:54:28,160 --> 00:54:32,480
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator, the quarterbacks coach, and the receivers coach. Man

1186
00:54:32,600 --> 00:54:34,360
Speaker 1: we didn't have all those other guys. We had just

1187
00:54:34,480 --> 00:54:37,719
Speaker 1: one coach for all that stuff. So he was really

1188
00:54:37,880 --> 00:54:40,440
Speaker 1: he was really good, and he gave us a system

1189
00:54:40,640 --> 00:54:43,640
Speaker 1: that worked really well for us. Yeah. You know, during

1190
00:54:43,719 --> 00:54:46,359
Speaker 1: your day, it went from like eight coaches. I think

1191
00:54:46,440 --> 00:54:48,839
Speaker 1: when I was playing it was nine, and now there's

1192
00:54:48,840 --> 00:54:52,920
Speaker 1: like twenty six. Yeah. Yeah, exactly half the team. I

1193
00:54:52,960 --> 00:54:55,560
Speaker 1: mean literally, you've got half as many coaches as you

1194
00:54:55,680 --> 00:54:58,480
Speaker 1: have team members just about. Um. Yeah, my first year

1195
00:54:58,560 --> 00:55:01,640
Speaker 1: we didn't have a special team's coach. Rusty Tillman came

1196
00:55:01,719 --> 00:55:04,239
Speaker 1: in in like the fourth year as a special teams coach,

1197
00:55:04,480 --> 00:55:07,080
Speaker 1: but before that, the running backs coach channeled special teams.

1198
00:55:07,480 --> 00:55:09,560
Speaker 1: So you know, it's just a different time. And uh

1199
00:55:09,600 --> 00:55:11,239
Speaker 1: and of course you got a lot more money as

1200
00:55:11,239 --> 00:55:14,560
Speaker 1: an organization to pay for that too. Yeah. By the way,

1201
00:55:14,640 --> 00:55:18,720
Speaker 1: our buddy Adam Ray, who is our the comedian, the actor,

1202
00:55:18,920 --> 00:55:20,520
Speaker 1: all that, he comes on our show all the time.

1203
00:55:20,840 --> 00:55:23,400
Speaker 1: He told me to tell you he's going as Steve

1204
00:55:23,560 --> 00:55:29,600
Speaker 1: Rabel for Halloween. Silence. I'm sorry, I was just I

1205
00:55:29,719 --> 00:55:33,040
Speaker 1: was I missed that last part he's going where he's

1206
00:55:33,120 --> 00:55:38,600
Speaker 1: going as you for Halloween? Oh my god. Well that's

1207
00:55:38,800 --> 00:55:41,239
Speaker 1: that's lovely. I'm trying to think if I have, like

1208
00:55:41,960 --> 00:55:45,160
Speaker 1: I know, I have some old newscaster ties, and I

1209
00:55:45,400 --> 00:55:48,640
Speaker 1: certainly have some hair color that I used to use

1210
00:55:48,719 --> 00:55:51,160
Speaker 1: on TV, so he's welcome to any of that stuff.

1211
00:55:51,480 --> 00:55:54,400
Speaker 1: I'm sorry for entirely derailing. No. I know it was

1212
00:55:54,480 --> 00:55:56,600
Speaker 1: wonderful because for a minute there, I thought that for

1213
00:55:56,680 --> 00:55:58,960
Speaker 1: a minute there, I thought that Steve heard it and

1214
00:55:59,120 --> 00:56:02,160
Speaker 1: was purposely just being like silent, I'm not gonna last look. Yeah,

1215
00:56:02,239 --> 00:56:05,319
Speaker 1: I loved it. No, I kind of black. I kind

1216
00:56:05,360 --> 00:56:06,879
Speaker 1: of blacked out there for a second and a half

1217
00:56:06,920 --> 00:56:09,120
Speaker 1: of every so often when you get to be this age.

1218
00:56:09,640 --> 00:56:12,080
Speaker 1: He is the voice of the Seahawks. Steve Rabel joins

1219
00:56:12,160 --> 00:56:15,320
Speaker 1: us every single Thursday for the huddle. Thanks so much, Rapes.

1220
00:56:16,280 --> 00:56:19,520
Speaker 1: Hey guys, thank you for you Sunday in San Franz

1221
00:56:19,719 --> 00:56:23,279
Speaker 1: might be right, all right, we are gonna before we

1222
00:56:23,360 --> 00:56:25,560
Speaker 1: bring on John Boyle, who's the Seahawks reporter. We're gonna

1223
00:56:25,560 --> 00:56:27,759
Speaker 1: get the latest updates on the team and take a

1224
00:56:27,800 --> 00:56:29,560
Speaker 1: look ahead with some of our final thoughts. We're gonna

1225
00:56:29,719 --> 00:56:32,200
Speaker 1: jump across enemy lines head down to San Francisco for

1226
00:56:32,239 --> 00:56:35,640
Speaker 1: an opponent preview with ESPN's Nick Wagner. Don't go anywhere.

1227
00:56:35,719 --> 00:56:38,040
Speaker 1: This is the huddle. You are listening to the huddle

1228
00:56:38,120 --> 00:56:41,160
Speaker 1: with Dave Wyman, Michael Bumpus, and Stacy Ross joining us

1229
00:56:41,239 --> 00:56:45,560
Speaker 1: now for an opponent preview, it is Nick Wagner ESPN. Nick.

1230
00:56:45,680 --> 00:56:48,000
Speaker 1: The forty nine Ers a team where we weren't quite

1231
00:56:48,040 --> 00:56:49,799
Speaker 1: sure how to place on our own rankings. They could

1232
00:56:49,840 --> 00:56:52,000
Speaker 1: be really great, but they also have a lot of unknowns,

1233
00:56:52,160 --> 00:56:55,000
Speaker 1: especially at quarterback. What did we learn about Trey Lands

1234
00:56:55,000 --> 00:56:58,279
Speaker 1: in Week one? Yeah, Unfortunately for the forty nine Ers

1235
00:56:58,280 --> 00:57:00,200
Speaker 1: States and for US, I don't think we learn a

1236
00:57:00,200 --> 00:57:03,120
Speaker 1: whole lot, just because it was hard to gauge what

1237
00:57:03,360 --> 00:57:06,760
Speaker 1: exactly was happening, what was real and what wasn't because

1238
00:57:06,800 --> 00:57:08,680
Speaker 1: of the conditions that they were playing, and it was

1239
00:57:09,440 --> 00:57:11,560
Speaker 1: one of the rainiest games I've ever covered in eighteen

1240
00:57:11,680 --> 00:57:14,720
Speaker 1: years of covering this league. In the fourth quarter, in particular,

1241
00:57:14,760 --> 00:57:17,240
Speaker 1: after the forty nine Yars fell behind thirteen head and

1242
00:57:17,360 --> 00:57:20,840
Speaker 1: had to start throwing the ball was really Monsoon's status.

1243
00:57:20,960 --> 00:57:23,200
Speaker 1: So we did learn a whole lot, I will say,

1244
00:57:23,440 --> 00:57:25,120
Speaker 1: you know, there were some good things from Trey Lance

1245
00:57:25,200 --> 00:57:27,400
Speaker 1: early on in that game before the weather got too bad.

1246
00:57:27,440 --> 00:57:30,000
Speaker 1: They're also some bad things before the weather got too

1247
00:57:30,000 --> 00:57:31,920
Speaker 1: bad as well, But I think that's gonna be the

1248
00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:34,080
Speaker 1: Trey Lance experience this year. I think, at least in

1249
00:57:34,120 --> 00:57:36,360
Speaker 1: the early part of the season, there's gonna be those

1250
00:57:36,440 --> 00:57:38,520
Speaker 1: ups and downs. I think the forty nine ers has

1251
00:57:38,600 --> 00:57:40,600
Speaker 1: kind of planned for that and they're expecting that. But

1252
00:57:41,280 --> 00:57:43,200
Speaker 1: in terms of like getting a gauge on where he is,

1253
00:57:43,240 --> 00:57:45,600
Speaker 1: I think it'll be easier to do that once he

1254
00:57:45,720 --> 00:57:49,240
Speaker 1: plays in more normal, a more normal setting, which, as

1255
00:57:49,280 --> 00:57:51,360
Speaker 1: of the right now, the forecast for this weekend at

1256
00:57:51,440 --> 00:57:54,560
Speaker 1: least for Sunday, may not give him that opportunity. So

1257
00:57:54,800 --> 00:57:58,200
Speaker 1: it's kind of kind of a funny situation here. Yeah,

1258
00:57:58,320 --> 00:58:01,360
Speaker 1: tough situation for trans You watch that film, Nick, and

1259
00:58:01,440 --> 00:58:03,800
Speaker 1: you see the potential, right, you see the arm strength.

1260
00:58:03,840 --> 00:58:05,440
Speaker 1: He made a cup of throws early that had me

1261
00:58:06,280 --> 00:58:08,120
Speaker 1: kind of excited just to see how he grows. But

1262
00:58:08,600 --> 00:58:11,440
Speaker 1: with Jimmy Garopplo lurking on that sideline, man, is that

1263
00:58:11,880 --> 00:58:14,520
Speaker 1: a real issue? Do you think fans will be calling

1264
00:58:14,600 --> 00:58:16,760
Speaker 1: for Jimmy if if things don't go well here in

1265
00:58:16,760 --> 00:58:19,640
Speaker 1: the next couple of weeks. Yeah, I mean, I think

1266
00:58:19,800 --> 00:58:22,320
Speaker 1: I think definitely from a fan perspective, that's going to happen.

1267
00:58:22,400 --> 00:58:25,600
Speaker 1: It probably is already happening. To be completely honest with

1268
00:58:25,680 --> 00:58:28,120
Speaker 1: you and it's it's kind of a weird situation because

1269
00:58:28,560 --> 00:58:31,200
Speaker 1: you know, people are so dug in on either side,

1270
00:58:31,320 --> 00:58:33,960
Speaker 1: and people want to have that they don't necessarily even

1271
00:58:34,080 --> 00:58:36,280
Speaker 1: fans of the team, they care more about their opinion

1272
00:58:36,400 --> 00:58:38,400
Speaker 1: being right than the team doing well, which is odd

1273
00:58:38,440 --> 00:58:41,240
Speaker 1: to me. And so you get a lot of people

1274
00:58:41,280 --> 00:58:43,040
Speaker 1: who are dug in on both sides of this. And

1275
00:58:43,560 --> 00:58:45,440
Speaker 1: I think the big thing though, is is how does

1276
00:58:45,440 --> 00:58:47,800
Speaker 1: the locker room view it, Because at the end of

1277
00:58:47,840 --> 00:58:50,520
Speaker 1: the day, nobody knows better than the players in that

1278
00:58:50,600 --> 00:58:52,880
Speaker 1: locker room if a guy's not doing his job up

1279
00:58:52,920 --> 00:58:54,520
Speaker 1: to the standard that is set. And this is a

1280
00:58:54,560 --> 00:58:57,200
Speaker 1: team that was in the NFC Championship last year, Super

1281
00:58:57,240 --> 00:58:59,240
Speaker 1: Bowl a few years ago. They believe they can be

1282
00:58:59,320 --> 00:59:01,800
Speaker 1: a contender of that this year, and so that's going

1283
00:59:01,840 --> 00:59:04,120
Speaker 1: to be the hard sell. And what Kyle Shanahan told

1284
00:59:04,200 --> 00:59:07,040
Speaker 1: his team before they made the move to keep Jimmy Garoppolo,

1285
00:59:07,160 --> 00:59:09,640
Speaker 1: he had a meeting with fifteen team leaders, veterans who've

1286
00:59:09,640 --> 00:59:13,080
Speaker 1: been around from all position groups, sat them down and said, look,

1287
00:59:13,120 --> 00:59:16,240
Speaker 1: I need you guys to have trays back like you've

1288
00:59:16,280 --> 00:59:18,720
Speaker 1: always had Jimmy's back. And there were moments last year

1289
00:59:18,760 --> 00:59:21,200
Speaker 1: where people will call him for Trey Lance, if you remember.

1290
00:59:21,280 --> 00:59:23,680
Speaker 1: So the idea is that they're going to have to

1291
00:59:23,760 --> 00:59:26,760
Speaker 1: support Trey in that locker room when he struggles, which

1292
00:59:26,800 --> 00:59:29,480
Speaker 1: is going to happen and already has happened at some levels,

1293
00:59:29,520 --> 00:59:31,880
Speaker 1: So that's going to be the kind of the key thing.

1294
00:59:31,880 --> 00:59:33,480
Speaker 1: I don't think this is a team that cares much

1295
00:59:33,480 --> 00:59:36,919
Speaker 1: about what the outside people say. Thinnicularly Kyle Shanahan, doesn't

1296
00:59:36,960 --> 00:59:39,640
Speaker 1: care about that, but what goes on in that locker

1297
00:59:39,760 --> 00:59:43,320
Speaker 1: room if and when Trey Lance struggles. I remember watching

1298
00:59:43,360 --> 00:59:45,760
Speaker 1: this team last year, and in part for fantasy reasons,

1299
00:59:45,800 --> 00:59:48,040
Speaker 1: there was always a running back that was doing well,

1300
00:59:48,080 --> 00:59:50,520
Speaker 1: so I really enjoyed it. But it was also really fast.

1301
00:59:50,680 --> 00:59:55,520
Speaker 1: Shanahan just fine ways to maximize this run game. In

1302
00:59:55,800 --> 00:59:59,240
Speaker 1: Week one against the Bears, that was not the case. Now,

1303
00:59:59,360 --> 01:00:01,360
Speaker 1: the Bears were aren't really great either, so this could

1304
01:00:01,360 --> 01:00:03,320
Speaker 1: have also been a product of the weather. But tell

1305
01:00:03,360 --> 01:00:05,080
Speaker 1: me a bit about the depth they have it running

1306
01:00:05,080 --> 01:00:08,600
Speaker 1: back and what you've seen so far. Yeah, they're going

1307
01:00:08,680 --> 01:00:11,120
Speaker 1: to be tested right away because Elijah Mitchell, who was

1308
01:00:11,200 --> 01:00:13,960
Speaker 1: their clear cut number one running back going into the season,

1309
01:00:14,680 --> 01:00:17,400
Speaker 1: suffered a nice brain in that game, a right knee

1310
01:00:17,440 --> 01:00:20,120
Speaker 1: brain against the Bears. He's gonna miss about two months,

1311
01:00:20,320 --> 01:00:24,080
Speaker 1: and so forty Niners are already testing their depth, which

1312
01:00:24,120 --> 01:00:26,520
Speaker 1: has been a common team in the five years the

1313
01:00:26,600 --> 01:00:29,040
Speaker 1: Kyle Shenahan has been here. They have had a different

1314
01:00:29,160 --> 01:00:31,680
Speaker 1: leading rusher in each of those five seasons, and a

1315
01:00:31,760 --> 01:00:35,000
Speaker 1: lot of that is because they've had injuries throughout that time.

1316
01:00:35,080 --> 01:00:37,640
Speaker 1: And so once again, this is actually the second year

1317
01:00:37,640 --> 01:00:39,880
Speaker 1: in a row they lost their starting running back in

1318
01:00:40,040 --> 01:00:42,840
Speaker 1: Week one and so now it's Jeff Wilson Junior, and

1319
01:00:42,920 --> 01:00:45,800
Speaker 1: it's a couple of untested rookies guys who haven't played

1320
01:00:46,160 --> 01:00:48,440
Speaker 1: offensive snaps in the NFL at all in a regular

1321
01:00:48,480 --> 01:00:51,920
Speaker 1: season game in Jordan Mason and Tyrian Davis Price. So

1322
01:00:52,640 --> 01:00:54,760
Speaker 1: Jeff Wilson is going to probably be the guy just

1323
01:00:54,840 --> 01:00:57,320
Speaker 1: because he's got the most experience, he's been around the longest.

1324
01:00:57,400 --> 01:00:59,800
Speaker 1: He actually was the team's leading rusher in twenty twenty.

1325
01:01:00,160 --> 01:01:02,560
Speaker 1: But Deebo Samuel is the other aspector there and now

1326
01:01:02,640 --> 01:01:04,840
Speaker 1: a trade lance too if if we're being honest about it,

1327
01:01:05,280 --> 01:01:07,600
Speaker 1: Lansing Samuel were the two lining rushers on the team

1328
01:01:07,920 --> 01:01:09,760
Speaker 1: on Sunday, and they had a lot of rushing yards

1329
01:01:09,760 --> 01:01:11,440
Speaker 1: as a team, but nobody had more than I think

1330
01:01:11,520 --> 01:01:13,439
Speaker 1: Lanta at fifty four, which was the most of the team.

1331
01:01:13,480 --> 01:01:16,280
Speaker 1: So it's probably gonna be a group effort. But you're

1332
01:01:16,320 --> 01:01:19,640
Speaker 1: gonna see a lot of Deebo Samuel and more trailer

1333
01:01:19,720 --> 01:01:23,520
Speaker 1: game than you might have when Elijah Mitchell was healthy. Nick.

1334
01:01:23,600 --> 01:01:25,920
Speaker 1: Week one stats are always hard, right, you're trying to

1335
01:01:25,960 --> 01:01:28,400
Speaker 1: find an edge. You're comparing both teams, and you look

1336
01:01:28,440 --> 01:01:30,760
Speaker 1: at the Niners Week one rankings and stats, and it

1337
01:01:30,840 --> 01:01:32,840
Speaker 1: looks like a forty nine team, right, the number one

1338
01:01:32,880 --> 01:01:35,520
Speaker 1: total defense only allowing two hundred and four yards um

1339
01:01:35,680 --> 01:01:37,160
Speaker 1: never one to gets the past one on five. But

1340
01:01:37,200 --> 01:01:39,600
Speaker 1: then we realized that it was raining like heck over there, Right.

1341
01:01:39,680 --> 01:01:42,760
Speaker 1: But I look at this defense and you see the

1342
01:01:42,880 --> 01:01:46,040
Speaker 1: names Nick Bolsa, you see Fred Warner, but there's a

1343
01:01:46,160 --> 01:01:48,720
Speaker 1: guy who hopped out on the film. To me, I

1344
01:01:48,760 --> 01:01:52,880
Speaker 1: don't want to mess up the game. Tell Noah NOFNGA. Man,

1345
01:01:53,400 --> 01:01:56,240
Speaker 1: this dude is flying around making plays. Tell me about

1346
01:01:56,280 --> 01:01:58,640
Speaker 1: this dude and what he means in his defense. Yeah,

1347
01:01:58,840 --> 01:02:01,360
Speaker 1: he's one of the few new starters they have this year.

1348
01:02:01,400 --> 01:02:03,640
Speaker 1: They've only got three new starters on that defense. That

1349
01:02:03,720 --> 01:02:05,640
Speaker 1: he was a fifth round pick out of USC and

1350
01:02:06,040 --> 01:02:08,080
Speaker 1: the reason he was there's two reasons that he kind

1351
01:02:08,120 --> 01:02:09,520
Speaker 1: of fell to the fifth round because he was a

1352
01:02:09,600 --> 01:02:12,080
Speaker 1: really productive college player. But number one, he had a

1353
01:02:12,120 --> 01:02:14,320
Speaker 1: lot of injury issues in college. Part of that is

1354
01:02:14,360 --> 01:02:17,360
Speaker 1: his playing style, as you mentioned, kind of flying around, uh,

1355
01:02:17,680 --> 01:02:19,640
Speaker 1: you know, being a little bit reckless to his body.

1356
01:02:19,800 --> 01:02:22,600
Speaker 1: But that seems to work for him, but that contributed

1357
01:02:22,640 --> 01:02:24,440
Speaker 1: to injuries in college, which I think hurt him. And

1358
01:02:24,520 --> 01:02:26,959
Speaker 1: he just wasn't you know, didn't time fast. He wasn't

1359
01:02:27,000 --> 01:02:28,640
Speaker 1: one of those guys who was going to light up

1360
01:02:28,920 --> 01:02:31,120
Speaker 1: the forty yard dash at the combine or whatever. But

1361
01:02:31,520 --> 01:02:33,360
Speaker 1: the thing that they love about him and the thing

1362
01:02:33,440 --> 01:02:36,320
Speaker 1: that he does so well is he's very instinctive. He's

1363
01:02:36,360 --> 01:02:39,000
Speaker 1: one of those guys who see things kind of happened

1364
01:02:39,040 --> 01:02:41,120
Speaker 1: before they do, or what's about to happen before they do,

1365
01:02:41,440 --> 01:02:43,280
Speaker 1: and he can get to the spot pretty quickly. And

1366
01:02:43,400 --> 01:02:45,480
Speaker 1: so last week I think it was it was a

1367
01:02:45,560 --> 01:02:49,360
Speaker 1: perfect storm for him, pun intended because he was in

1368
01:02:49,440 --> 01:02:51,240
Speaker 1: a situation where he was able to just kind of

1369
01:02:51,280 --> 01:02:53,280
Speaker 1: fire off the ball. He knew the bears weren't going

1370
01:02:53,320 --> 01:02:56,040
Speaker 1: to be thrown a lot, particularly in that rain, and

1371
01:02:56,120 --> 01:02:57,960
Speaker 1: it helped him a lot but he also made some mistakes.

1372
01:02:58,000 --> 01:02:59,880
Speaker 1: You know that the fifty one yard touchdown pass that

1373
01:03:00,040 --> 01:03:02,840
Speaker 1: justin field through you know he escaped a sack and

1374
01:03:02,960 --> 01:03:06,160
Speaker 1: tell them Whufanga didn't plaster down field. He left Dante

1375
01:03:06,240 --> 01:03:08,440
Speaker 1: Pettis Holt alone they could get the completion. Pattis rose

1376
01:03:08,560 --> 01:03:10,880
Speaker 1: in for a touchdown. So still some mistakes and it'll

1377
01:03:10,880 --> 01:03:13,760
Speaker 1: be interesting to see how Hohofanga does moving forward when

1378
01:03:13,840 --> 01:03:16,080
Speaker 1: teams are more likely to throw the ball because from

1379
01:03:16,120 --> 01:03:18,800
Speaker 1: what we've seen at least so far, and he's just

1380
01:03:18,920 --> 01:03:21,000
Speaker 1: better up in the box and playing the run and

1381
01:03:21,080 --> 01:03:24,800
Speaker 1: he is necessarily on the back end. Hey, Nick, there

1382
01:03:24,880 --> 01:03:26,760
Speaker 1: were a lot of mistakes, some good things, a lot

1383
01:03:26,800 --> 01:03:29,280
Speaker 1: of mistakes last week for this team. I mean, I'm

1384
01:03:29,320 --> 01:03:31,760
Speaker 1: here looking at twelve penalties, which would be fantastic if

1385
01:03:31,800 --> 01:03:34,200
Speaker 1: they don't have twelve penalties this week. But that kind

1386
01:03:34,200 --> 01:03:37,000
Speaker 1: of leads me to my next question. Here's what's something

1387
01:03:37,080 --> 01:03:39,760
Speaker 1: that feels very fixable between weeks one and two, and

1388
01:03:40,240 --> 01:03:41,960
Speaker 1: what's something that's probably going to take this team a

1389
01:03:42,000 --> 01:03:44,920
Speaker 1: little longer to figure out. Yeah, the fixable thing is

1390
01:03:45,000 --> 01:03:48,040
Speaker 1: those penalties. But I also say that with the caveat

1391
01:03:48,120 --> 01:03:50,280
Speaker 1: that this was the third most penalized team in the

1392
01:03:50,320 --> 01:03:52,880
Speaker 1: league last year in terms of penalty yards. So it's

1393
01:03:52,880 --> 01:03:55,400
Speaker 1: easy to sit here and say, and I will say this,

1394
01:03:55,680 --> 01:03:57,440
Speaker 1: out of those twelve penalties last week, a lot of

1395
01:03:57,520 --> 01:04:00,440
Speaker 1: them were the types that are fixable. It's not fifty

1396
01:04:00,520 --> 01:04:02,440
Speaker 1: fifty call where it's all the ref is calling a

1397
01:04:02,520 --> 01:04:04,960
Speaker 1: holding or ref is calling a pass interference. It could

1398
01:04:05,000 --> 01:04:06,960
Speaker 1: have gone either way kind of thing. It's it's stuff

1399
01:04:07,040 --> 01:04:09,920
Speaker 1: like unnecessary roughness when the quarterback slides and you're hitting it,

1400
01:04:10,040 --> 01:04:12,040
Speaker 1: like those the things, and it could be bang bang.

1401
01:04:12,120 --> 01:04:13,960
Speaker 1: But some of those were pretty obvious, like there's the

1402
01:04:14,000 --> 01:04:16,840
Speaker 1: face mask on Drake Greenlaw that kept the drive alive

1403
01:04:17,320 --> 01:04:19,520
Speaker 1: for the first touchdown for the Bears, and it could

1404
01:04:19,520 --> 01:04:21,760
Speaker 1: have easily been avoided. So things like that that should

1405
01:04:21,800 --> 01:04:24,280
Speaker 1: be fixable, you would like to think. But again I

1406
01:04:24,360 --> 01:04:26,520
Speaker 1: say that with the caveat of this has been a

1407
01:04:26,560 --> 01:04:29,320
Speaker 1: little bit of an issue for this team in recent years,

1408
01:04:29,360 --> 01:04:32,160
Speaker 1: so maybe won't go away as easily. And then the

1409
01:04:32,240 --> 01:04:33,880
Speaker 1: thing that's going to take a little bit longer is

1410
01:04:34,200 --> 01:04:37,800
Speaker 1: quite frankly, you know, their offensive line has three news starters.

1411
01:04:37,840 --> 01:04:40,040
Speaker 1: They have Mike McGlinchey, their right tackle, who's coming off

1412
01:04:40,080 --> 01:04:43,240
Speaker 1: of a serious quad injury. That's four question marks next

1413
01:04:43,280 --> 01:04:45,640
Speaker 1: to the best left tackle in football and Trent Williams,

1414
01:04:46,000 --> 01:04:48,040
Speaker 1: and that's a big thing. And you combine that with

1415
01:04:48,120 --> 01:04:51,360
Speaker 1: an inexperienced quarterback in Trey Lance, that's a tough that's

1416
01:04:51,360 --> 01:04:53,560
Speaker 1: a tough thing to solve. And so I think this

1417
01:04:53,760 --> 01:04:56,320
Speaker 1: team in the beginning part of the season, their hope

1418
01:04:56,440 --> 01:04:58,480
Speaker 1: is is that Tray Lance can just do enough, not

1419
01:04:58,680 --> 01:05:01,360
Speaker 1: make big mistakes, do enough to keep them in games,

1420
01:05:01,480 --> 01:05:03,720
Speaker 1: Let the defense do its thing, and the running game

1421
01:05:03,760 --> 01:05:05,280
Speaker 1: will be there and they'll be able to win games

1422
01:05:05,360 --> 01:05:07,840
Speaker 1: that way as Lance continues to get better. But how

1423
01:05:07,920 --> 01:05:11,200
Speaker 1: quickly that happens, especially with an offensive life bold question marks,

1424
01:05:11,520 --> 01:05:13,240
Speaker 1: is still really up in the air. All Right. The

1425
01:05:13,320 --> 01:05:16,560
Speaker 1: next time these two teams meet will be December fifteenth,

1426
01:05:16,680 --> 01:05:19,000
Speaker 1: and I am fascinated to see where both clubs are

1427
01:05:19,040 --> 01:05:21,960
Speaker 1: going to be by then. Lots of really really fascinating

1428
01:05:22,040 --> 01:05:24,680
Speaker 1: questions and players here to watch. He has Nick Wagner

1429
01:05:24,760 --> 01:05:27,200
Speaker 1: of ESPN joining us for the huddle. Nick, thank you

1430
01:05:27,240 --> 01:05:29,880
Speaker 1: so much for taking the time. You gotta take care

1431
01:05:30,120 --> 01:05:33,320
Speaker 1: you are listening to the huddle. Don't go anywhere. You

1432
01:05:33,400 --> 01:05:35,840
Speaker 1: are listening to the huddle with Dave Wyman, Michael Bumpets,

1433
01:05:35,920 --> 01:05:38,360
Speaker 1: and Stacy Ross. It is a two hour preview show

1434
01:05:38,400 --> 01:05:40,880
Speaker 1: for the Seahawks every single Thursday from noon to two,

1435
01:05:40,920 --> 01:05:42,760
Speaker 1: and we are wrapping things up just as we always

1436
01:05:42,800 --> 01:05:46,040
Speaker 1: do with Seahawks dot com reporter John Boyle. Boyle has

1437
01:05:46,080 --> 01:05:49,080
Speaker 1: it going. It's going great. How are y'all doing? We're good,

1438
01:05:49,160 --> 01:05:52,360
Speaker 1: I mean, great news about Sean Alexander earlier sad news

1439
01:05:52,400 --> 01:05:55,160
Speaker 1: about Jamal We're gonna get to both those things. I'm

1440
01:05:55,160 --> 01:05:56,880
Speaker 1: going to start with Week two, though, with just a

1441
01:05:57,000 --> 01:05:59,760
Speaker 1: look ahead to what I think might be the Seahawks

1442
01:05:59,800 --> 01:06:02,600
Speaker 1: big is challenging this one. Trey Lance, What do you think? Yeah,

1443
01:06:02,600 --> 01:06:04,560
Speaker 1: I mean, i'd say the running game in general, He's

1444
01:06:04,600 --> 01:06:06,440
Speaker 1: a big factor in that. I guess the other side

1445
01:06:06,480 --> 01:06:08,240
Speaker 1: of the ball. The pass rush always makes me nervous

1446
01:06:08,240 --> 01:06:10,400
Speaker 1: when you're playing playing the forty nine ars. But yeah,

1447
01:06:10,440 --> 01:06:12,520
Speaker 1: I mean Trey Lance. To me, at least, he seems

1448
01:06:12,520 --> 01:06:14,280
Speaker 1: like kind of an unknown stilly. I just hadn't played

1449
01:06:14,280 --> 01:06:16,640
Speaker 1: a lot of football. But you do know that he

1450
01:06:16,720 --> 01:06:18,600
Speaker 1: can run the ball. We saw that last week, even

1451
01:06:18,680 --> 01:06:21,240
Speaker 1: in that terrible weather in Chicago, So you know, Sehawks

1452
01:06:21,240 --> 01:06:24,600
Speaker 1: allowed five point to rushing yards pertempt against the Broncos.

1453
01:06:24,640 --> 01:06:27,840
Speaker 1: They gotta clean that up a little bit. So what

1454
01:06:28,280 --> 01:06:32,160
Speaker 1: do you know. I don't know if Pete said anything

1455
01:06:32,280 --> 01:06:34,680
Speaker 1: to like this effect or how how you feel about it,

1456
01:06:34,760 --> 01:06:37,120
Speaker 1: but it was like something that we haven't really seen

1457
01:06:37,600 --> 01:06:39,280
Speaker 1: from him. I was I don't want to say I

1458
01:06:39,360 --> 01:06:40,920
Speaker 1: was shocked because then it makes it sound like, well,

1459
01:06:40,920 --> 01:06:42,400
Speaker 1: I didn't think it was a very good player, right,

1460
01:06:42,480 --> 01:06:45,040
Speaker 1: I thought he was a good player, But he looked

1461
01:06:45,080 --> 01:06:49,240
Speaker 1: like Justin Herbert or Patrick Mahomes or any of the

1462
01:06:49,440 --> 01:06:51,800
Speaker 1: you know, and we always say, look, there's you know,

1463
01:06:51,840 --> 01:06:54,400
Speaker 1: there's thirty two quarterbacks obviously, but there's like twelve of

1464
01:06:54,480 --> 01:06:57,280
Speaker 1: them that are really special. It looked like one of

1465
01:06:57,320 --> 01:06:59,800
Speaker 1: them he made some real special play, especially that first half. Yeah,

1466
01:06:59,800 --> 01:07:01,880
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, we're gonna get a headline now

1467
01:07:01,920 --> 01:07:04,320
Speaker 1: that Dave Wyman says Gino Smith is bed than Patrick

1468
01:07:04,360 --> 01:07:08,439
Speaker 1: my Homes. But let's let's start the hyperion. I mean, look,

1469
01:07:08,920 --> 01:07:10,240
Speaker 1: I've been you know, there's a few of the guys

1470
01:07:10,240 --> 01:07:12,000
Speaker 1: on the beat that we watched practice and we were

1471
01:07:12,040 --> 01:07:13,160
Speaker 1: we've been talking for a while, like, do you know

1472
01:07:13,280 --> 01:07:15,120
Speaker 1: something's better when people thinks he is he just kind

1473
01:07:15,160 --> 01:07:16,600
Speaker 1: of gets this rap that you know, he's been back

1474
01:07:16,640 --> 01:07:18,840
Speaker 1: up forever and he's no good And yeah, he struggled

1475
01:07:18,840 --> 01:07:20,200
Speaker 1: a little bit with the Jets when he was young

1476
01:07:20,280 --> 01:07:21,920
Speaker 1: and on a bad team. But you watch him throw

1477
01:07:21,920 --> 01:07:24,200
Speaker 1: the ball in practice every day. He's got a good

1478
01:07:24,320 --> 01:07:26,160
Speaker 1: arm and he's accurate, and that showed up. Now, look,

1479
01:07:26,240 --> 01:07:28,200
Speaker 1: some of those plays were pretty special things you just

1480
01:07:28,480 --> 01:07:30,720
Speaker 1: don't necessarily expect out of a guy that touched down

1481
01:07:30,760 --> 01:07:32,680
Speaker 1: to Will Disley where he's got a blitzer coming right

1482
01:07:32,760 --> 01:07:35,360
Speaker 1: at him. That one where he's broke free on third

1483
01:07:35,400 --> 01:07:37,080
Speaker 1: down in a Hitt mark, he's good run the sideline,

1484
01:07:37,080 --> 01:07:39,880
Speaker 1: and those were, like you said, there's some special plays.

1485
01:07:39,920 --> 01:07:43,440
Speaker 1: But just overall that he was accurate and efficient and

1486
01:07:43,520 --> 01:07:45,720
Speaker 1: around the offense. Well that that part didn't surprise me.

1487
01:07:45,800 --> 01:07:48,040
Speaker 1: But you know, was I think in seventeen for eighteen

1488
01:07:48,080 --> 01:07:51,000
Speaker 1: in the first half, of course not so Jamal's out.

1489
01:07:51,080 --> 01:07:53,440
Speaker 1: Sounds like Josh Jones is going to be the guy

1490
01:07:53,560 --> 01:07:55,520
Speaker 1: to step up. They must think highly of him. I

1491
01:07:55,560 --> 01:07:57,880
Speaker 1: think they set him the third preseason game, or at

1492
01:07:57,960 --> 01:08:00,640
Speaker 1: least I didn't see him out there. How was this defense?

1493
01:08:00,680 --> 01:08:02,920
Speaker 1: How do you think this defense is gonna change not

1494
01:08:03,120 --> 01:08:05,520
Speaker 1: having Jamal in there? Yeah? I mean, look, they really

1495
01:08:05,600 --> 01:08:07,880
Speaker 1: like Josh Jones. He was awesome in training camp in

1496
01:08:07,920 --> 01:08:10,240
Speaker 1: the preseason, and they you know, they have confidence that

1497
01:08:10,280 --> 01:08:11,959
Speaker 1: he can be out there and be a really good player,

1498
01:08:12,080 --> 01:08:13,960
Speaker 1: kind of just like Ryan Neil did when he filled in.

1499
01:08:14,080 --> 01:08:17,240
Speaker 1: But Jamal is such a unique player, you can't there's

1500
01:08:17,240 --> 01:08:19,559
Speaker 1: nobody who's going to replace exactly what he was doing

1501
01:08:19,600 --> 01:08:21,920
Speaker 1: in that defense in terms of the blitzne just all

1502
01:08:21,960 --> 01:08:23,560
Speaker 1: the different ways they moved him around. We saw a

1503
01:08:23,640 --> 01:08:25,320
Speaker 1: lot where you know, they'd bring Jones on as a

1504
01:08:25,360 --> 01:08:28,160
Speaker 1: third safety and put Adams down in the box more

1505
01:08:28,240 --> 01:08:30,639
Speaker 1: like a linebacker. Can they still do that with Jones

1506
01:08:30,720 --> 01:08:33,040
Speaker 1: or with Ryan Neil? Bringing Neil it's the third guy, Sure,

1507
01:08:33,160 --> 01:08:35,439
Speaker 1: but well they do as much. I don't know. That's

1508
01:08:35,520 --> 01:08:37,160
Speaker 1: kind of kind of be something off to see unfold

1509
01:08:37,240 --> 01:08:38,840
Speaker 1: here over the next few weeks, as if they get

1510
01:08:38,880 --> 01:08:41,360
Speaker 1: away from that three safety look more or not. But yeah,

1511
01:08:41,360 --> 01:08:43,280
Speaker 1: I mean it's just more in anything, you just feel

1512
01:08:43,320 --> 01:08:45,559
Speaker 1: bad for Jamal. I mean, this guy, he wasn't hardly

1513
01:08:45,600 --> 01:08:47,120
Speaker 1: ever hurt in New York. He had I think he

1514
01:08:47,200 --> 01:08:49,000
Speaker 1: missed two games in three years. You know, that wasn't

1515
01:08:49,080 --> 01:08:51,280
Speaker 1: like a scene as a risk as part of that trade,

1516
01:08:51,320 --> 01:08:52,880
Speaker 1: as you're getting a guy with an injury history, and

1517
01:08:53,000 --> 01:08:55,880
Speaker 1: yet he's at the shoulders, he's the finger stuff, and

1518
01:08:56,000 --> 01:08:58,080
Speaker 1: now this you just feel bad for a guy who

1519
01:08:58,720 --> 01:09:01,599
Speaker 1: clearly has a huge pashi football and is now going

1520
01:09:01,640 --> 01:09:04,000
Speaker 1: to have to miss another big chunk of time, someone

1521
01:09:04,040 --> 01:09:06,080
Speaker 1: who could be coming back Ken Walker. It sounds like

1522
01:09:06,160 --> 01:09:09,559
Speaker 1: Pete Carroll expects him to be out. How much would

1523
01:09:09,560 --> 01:09:11,200
Speaker 1: you think we could see him? Is he like full go?

1524
01:09:11,600 --> 01:09:13,560
Speaker 1: Is he still getting back? I mean, we'll see, we

1525
01:09:13,640 --> 01:09:15,519
Speaker 1: got you know, like Pete Carroll always says, we gotta

1526
01:09:15,520 --> 01:09:17,400
Speaker 1: see how he gets through the week. But you know,

1527
01:09:17,439 --> 01:09:20,200
Speaker 1: i'd think that you know, he's not a guy you're

1528
01:09:20,200 --> 01:09:22,400
Speaker 1: gonna ask come carry the ball twenty times, even if

1529
01:09:22,439 --> 01:09:24,800
Speaker 1: he is a full go, because you've got Penny out

1530
01:09:24,840 --> 01:09:26,720
Speaker 1: there kind of carrying the load. So to me, what

1531
01:09:26,880 --> 01:09:28,559
Speaker 1: you know, people we're gonna ask, well, what's his role

1532
01:09:28,600 --> 01:09:30,320
Speaker 1: going to be a lot of that, to me depends

1533
01:09:30,320 --> 01:09:32,000
Speaker 1: on how the offense is doing and just how many

1534
01:09:32,040 --> 01:09:34,400
Speaker 1: plays they get. If it's like last week where they

1535
01:09:34,479 --> 01:09:36,200
Speaker 1: have a quiet second half and they only get think

1536
01:09:36,240 --> 01:09:38,559
Speaker 1: that forty nine offensive plays or something like that, there's

1537
01:09:38,600 --> 01:09:40,120
Speaker 1: not gonna be a lot of carries for anybody but

1538
01:09:40,280 --> 01:09:42,080
Speaker 1: shot Penny. Now, if they can sustain a bunch of

1539
01:09:42,120 --> 01:09:45,080
Speaker 1: long drives and get their rushing game going, then it'd

1540
01:09:45,120 --> 01:09:47,320
Speaker 1: be fun to see what Walker has because boy, he

1541
01:09:47,439 --> 01:09:50,639
Speaker 1: sure looked really explosive before he got sidelined. There. One

1542
01:09:50,680 --> 01:09:54,599
Speaker 1: thing I didn't anticipate was the reaction from Shelby Harris

1543
01:09:54,680 --> 01:09:56,960
Speaker 1: at the end of the game. Yeah, he's fired up. Also.

1544
01:09:57,080 --> 01:09:59,920
Speaker 1: You know, it's funny because you think about, Okay, Drew

1545
01:10:00,120 --> 01:10:03,080
Speaker 1: Locke and him and Noah Fan were part of the trade.

1546
01:10:03,200 --> 01:10:06,360
Speaker 1: But I guess I didn't really consider just because Russell

1547
01:10:06,439 --> 01:10:09,479
Speaker 1: Wilson going there, We didn't think about the other guys, right, Yeah,

1548
01:10:09,479 --> 01:10:12,000
Speaker 1: how that feels to them, you know. And so for

1549
01:10:12,200 --> 01:10:15,639
Speaker 1: Shelby Harris, and it showed during the game like he really,

1550
01:10:15,880 --> 01:10:17,960
Speaker 1: you know, maybe this guy's a much better player than

1551
01:10:18,000 --> 01:10:20,280
Speaker 1: we've given him credit for because a couple of times

1552
01:10:20,320 --> 01:10:22,560
Speaker 1: he got penetration, he was like three yards deep in

1553
01:10:22,640 --> 01:10:24,639
Speaker 1: the backfield. I mean he had he had a little

1554
01:10:24,680 --> 01:10:26,600
Speaker 1: bit of an edge, and uh yeah, I thought it

1555
01:10:26,680 --> 01:10:28,640
Speaker 1: was interesting. Yeah, he was fired up, and he I mean,

1556
01:10:28,680 --> 01:10:29,880
Speaker 1: he is a good player. He was a guy that

1557
01:10:30,080 --> 01:10:32,160
Speaker 1: you know, he wasn't like a throw in piece of

1558
01:10:32,240 --> 01:10:34,519
Speaker 1: this trade. I mean they the guys they brought over

1559
01:10:34,600 --> 01:10:36,439
Speaker 1: in this trade, where guys they really wanted and thought

1560
01:10:36,520 --> 01:10:39,040
Speaker 1: could help the team. And you know, it's funny he

1561
01:10:39,120 --> 01:10:41,640
Speaker 1: talked before the game about I think it was a

1562
01:10:41,680 --> 01:10:43,640
Speaker 1: couple of days before about you know, he learned when

1563
01:10:43,680 --> 01:10:46,040
Speaker 1: he played his former team with the Broncos he played

1564
01:10:46,040 --> 01:10:48,080
Speaker 1: the Raiders, about making too much of it and too

1565
01:10:48,160 --> 01:10:50,680
Speaker 1: much emotion. So he had to avoid that pitfall. But

1566
01:10:51,080 --> 01:10:53,240
Speaker 1: clearly there's still some motion there. But he's sure handled

1567
01:10:53,240 --> 01:10:55,680
Speaker 1: it well because he played really well. Mike Jackson was

1568
01:10:55,720 --> 01:10:58,040
Speaker 1: a guy who was happy to see make the team. Honestly,

1569
01:10:58,080 --> 01:10:59,960
Speaker 1: I didn't think he was going to start on Monday,

1570
01:11:00,080 --> 01:11:02,240
Speaker 1: but he did, and he made some plays. Only time

1571
01:11:02,280 --> 01:11:03,800
Speaker 1: I really saw Sidney Jones and I think was when

1572
01:11:03,840 --> 01:11:05,719
Speaker 1: three one and went out with that stinger in his shoulder.

1573
01:11:05,880 --> 01:11:07,960
Speaker 1: You think Mike did enough to remain the starter. I

1574
01:11:08,000 --> 01:11:09,920
Speaker 1: mean I would think so. Sidney's a really good player,

1575
01:11:09,960 --> 01:11:11,639
Speaker 1: so it kind of feels like eventually he would push

1576
01:11:11,680 --> 01:11:13,800
Speaker 1: his way back into the lineup. But they've loved what

1577
01:11:13,880 --> 01:11:15,639
Speaker 1: they've got out of Mike Jackson. He made a bunch

1578
01:11:15,640 --> 01:11:17,560
Speaker 1: of plays, I mean, the two fund more recoveries, he

1579
01:11:17,640 --> 01:11:19,600
Speaker 1: had a pass breakup and then zone down there. So

1580
01:11:20,520 --> 01:11:22,559
Speaker 1: it's gonna be I would think, kind of an ongoing

1581
01:11:22,600 --> 01:11:25,439
Speaker 1: competition and see how they do and practice and all that.

1582
01:11:25,520 --> 01:11:27,760
Speaker 1: And I mean the good news is either way, you

1583
01:11:27,840 --> 01:11:29,719
Speaker 1: feel like you've kind of got an extra starter should

1584
01:11:29,720 --> 01:11:31,760
Speaker 1: you need it. But yeah, I mean, to me, Mike

1585
01:11:31,880 --> 01:11:33,800
Speaker 1: Jackson was one of the really cool stories of camp

1586
01:11:33,840 --> 01:11:35,920
Speaker 1: of a guy that, you know, if you'd asked me

1587
01:11:36,040 --> 01:11:38,599
Speaker 1: on July twenty whatever when they came to camp if

1588
01:11:38,600 --> 01:11:40,240
Speaker 1: he was going to be on the fifty three man roster,

1589
01:11:40,280 --> 01:11:42,400
Speaker 1: I would have you know, I don't know, maybe not,

1590
01:11:42,600 --> 01:11:44,080
Speaker 1: maybe he's a practice squad guy, and all of a

1591
01:11:44,080 --> 01:11:46,680
Speaker 1: sudden he's starting week one and not by you know,

1592
01:11:46,880 --> 01:11:48,519
Speaker 1: a bunch of injuries. College that he earned it and

1593
01:11:48,800 --> 01:11:50,880
Speaker 1: he played well. Last question before we get to some

1594
01:11:51,000 --> 01:11:56,000
Speaker 1: final thoughts from all three of you guys. Obviously, Pete

1595
01:11:56,080 --> 01:11:58,160
Speaker 1: Carroll mentioned, yeah, it's week one. There are things that

1596
01:11:58,240 --> 01:12:00,360
Speaker 1: we love, things we want to do better, something that

1597
01:12:00,680 --> 01:12:03,120
Speaker 1: you personally thought this was really encouraging to see week one.

1598
01:12:03,240 --> 01:12:05,320
Speaker 1: And what's something that you still have as a question.

1599
01:12:06,479 --> 01:12:09,320
Speaker 1: I mean, the obvious one that's really encouraging was Gino.

1600
01:12:09,439 --> 01:12:11,880
Speaker 1: I mean just seeing him control of the offense, take

1601
01:12:11,920 --> 01:12:13,280
Speaker 1: care of the football. I mean, those are things we

1602
01:12:13,360 --> 01:12:16,040
Speaker 1: wanted and he doesn't need to complete, you know, whatever

1603
01:12:16,200 --> 01:12:18,360
Speaker 1: percentage he did every week. If he can, great, But

1604
01:12:18,920 --> 01:12:20,839
Speaker 1: just even if you just get some of the playmaking

1605
01:12:20,920 --> 01:12:22,599
Speaker 1: and taking care of the ball, that's going to help

1606
01:12:22,720 --> 01:12:25,519
Speaker 1: you win a lot of games we recorded earlier. But

1607
01:12:25,720 --> 01:12:27,920
Speaker 1: thing kind of question mark to me. You got to

1608
01:12:27,960 --> 01:12:30,599
Speaker 1: clean that run defense up. You cannot play the forty

1609
01:12:30,680 --> 01:12:33,000
Speaker 1: nine ers allowing teams to rush like that because they'll

1610
01:12:33,000 --> 01:12:34,439
Speaker 1: be more committed to it. I mean, that's the thing

1611
01:12:34,520 --> 01:12:36,519
Speaker 1: that you can give up five point two a carry

1612
01:12:36,520 --> 01:12:38,360
Speaker 1: against Denver if they're not running a ton and they

1613
01:12:38,400 --> 01:12:40,200
Speaker 1: were behind in the second half, so they're throwing more.

1614
01:12:40,280 --> 01:12:42,120
Speaker 1: But if you give up that kind of yards of

1615
01:12:42,160 --> 01:12:44,120
Speaker 1: San Francisco, they're going to get you. I was surprised

1616
01:12:44,120 --> 01:12:46,559
Speaker 1: they weren't running more early often, or maybe I shouldn't

1617
01:12:46,560 --> 01:12:50,120
Speaker 1: have been. But let's speaking of do our keys to

1618
01:12:50,160 --> 01:12:51,800
Speaker 1: the game here? That could easily be one. I'll go

1619
01:12:52,439 --> 01:12:55,120
Speaker 1: John Wyman wrap up with bump. So our keys to

1620
01:12:55,280 --> 01:12:57,800
Speaker 1: a Seahawks win in week two? What's got to happen?

1621
01:12:59,000 --> 01:13:00,519
Speaker 1: I mean we just talked about couple of them but

1622
01:13:00,760 --> 01:13:03,200
Speaker 1: I'll to give a different one. I'm just gonna say,

1623
01:13:03,720 --> 01:13:06,080
Speaker 1: you know, with especially those rookie tackles in that pass rush,

1624
01:13:06,160 --> 01:13:08,840
Speaker 1: keep Gina Smith fairly clean. It's you can't ask for,

1625
01:13:08,960 --> 01:13:11,519
Speaker 1: you know, no sacks, no quarterback hits. That's probably not realistic,

1626
01:13:11,600 --> 01:13:13,800
Speaker 1: but you know, maybe maybe keep them to one or

1627
01:13:13,840 --> 01:13:15,800
Speaker 1: two sacks and limit the damage there because that's a

1628
01:13:15,880 --> 01:13:19,600
Speaker 1: great front. Yeah. Yeah, My biggest worry is the and

1629
01:13:19,720 --> 01:13:23,240
Speaker 1: I'll just specifically say linebacker play as far as the

1630
01:13:23,360 --> 01:13:27,120
Speaker 1: run game goes, because you know, O Chenna don't worry

1631
01:13:27,160 --> 01:13:29,720
Speaker 1: about at all. Darryl Taylor had some you know, young

1632
01:13:29,760 --> 01:13:31,880
Speaker 1: guy mistakes, and you know that that's the thing when

1633
01:13:31,880 --> 01:13:34,840
Speaker 1: you're young and you can run, you know, you flow fast,

1634
01:13:35,160 --> 01:13:37,560
Speaker 1: that they'll kill that. They'll they'll pick up on a

1635
01:13:37,680 --> 01:13:40,280
Speaker 1: San Francisco and if you don't stay home and everybody

1636
01:13:40,400 --> 01:13:43,439
Speaker 1: do their their job, that run game by the forty

1637
01:13:43,520 --> 01:13:45,800
Speaker 1: nine ers will kill you. So I'll put it specifically

1638
01:13:45,960 --> 01:13:48,920
Speaker 1: on the linebackers. Yeah, mine kind of goes off a days.

1639
01:13:48,960 --> 01:13:51,760
Speaker 1: Just be a signment friendly line up. We're supposed to

1640
01:13:51,840 --> 01:13:53,800
Speaker 1: line up and do what you're supposed to do because

1641
01:13:54,240 --> 01:13:56,760
Speaker 1: you are gonna see a lot of pulling a lot

1642
01:13:56,880 --> 01:14:00,400
Speaker 1: of play fakes, some some read options. They are going

1643
01:14:00,439 --> 01:14:03,360
Speaker 1: to throw it actually, especially with an athletic quarterback who

1644
01:14:03,400 --> 01:14:05,840
Speaker 1: they're not sure about throwing the rock yet. With Trey Lands,

1645
01:14:06,240 --> 01:14:09,240
Speaker 1: Shanahan's gonna have things doing. You guys can't see me.

1646
01:14:09,320 --> 01:14:14,320
Speaker 1: I'm crossing my arms right now. Things all right? That

1647
01:14:14,560 --> 01:14:17,519
Speaker 1: was the huddle with Dave Wyman, Michael Bumpus, and Stacy Ross.

1648
01:14:17,600 --> 01:14:19,880
Speaker 1: John Boyle joining us for our final segment along with

1649
01:14:19,960 --> 01:14:22,799
Speaker 1: our final thoughts while we wrap up here final seconds.

1650
01:14:22,840 --> 01:14:24,640
Speaker 1: By the way, any big injuries we need to know

1651
01:14:24,720 --> 01:14:26,840
Speaker 1: about for this one, You know, they came out of it.

1652
01:14:26,880 --> 01:14:29,519
Speaker 1: Other I mean Jamal is obviously for n but otherwise

1653
01:14:29,560 --> 01:14:31,720
Speaker 1: it sounds like they're pretty clean. And the big hope

1654
01:14:31,760 --> 01:14:33,800
Speaker 1: is getting some guys back, maybe Damian Lewis two, and

1655
01:14:33,880 --> 01:14:36,040
Speaker 1: you mentioned Walker earlier. All right, well, let's hope to

1656
01:14:36,080 --> 01:14:37,760
Speaker 1: get not only a few of these guys back, but

1657
01:14:37,920 --> 01:14:41,040
Speaker 1: get that win and week two against San Francisco. This

1658
01:14:41,240 --> 01:14:42,839
Speaker 1: has been the huddle. Don't go anywhere
