A lot of haters are out there. 24 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:06,000 Speaker 2: They're gonna say, look, well they haven't played anybody, and 25 00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:08,280 Speaker 2: the quarterback situation, I don't care. 26 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:11,520 Speaker 3: I do not care. You win three games in the NFL, 27 00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 3: it is hard to do, so you must respect it. 28 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:18,400 Speaker 2: A big task coming up this Monday night, Monday Night football. 29 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 2: The world is gonna see what the Hawks are made of. 30 00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:22,759 Speaker 2: But let's focus on what we saw last week. So 31 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 2: so far this year, all right, You're Hawks are number 32 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:30,880 Speaker 2: one against the past, number two defense overall, number four 33 00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 2: when it comes to points per game giving up third 34 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 2: down defense, they are fourth, allowing twenty six point one 35 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:41,960 Speaker 2: percent man in their first when it comes to points allowed, Man, 36 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 2: when you look at this Seahawks defense, there are a 37 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:46,640 Speaker 2: lot of questions. Is Mike McDonald gonna be the guy 38 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 2: who's gonna play linebacker? What's his defensive line gonna look like? 39 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 2: I think if there's anything we were certain about it 40 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:55,400 Speaker 2: was the back end. At least we felt that Devin Witherspoon, 41 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 2: Reek Woling, Jay Love was gonna be on point. You 42 00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 2: bring in Jenkins, Man, When you look at this defense, it's. 43 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 4: What do you see be Well, first off, to all 44 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 4: to all the haters saying, you know three and oh 45 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 4: you haven't played anybody, Well, look. 46 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 5: At these numbers right now. 47 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 4: I mean you're you're one of the best defenses in 48 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:11,799 Speaker 4: the league, and that's what you're supposed to do against 49 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:14,080 Speaker 4: the teams that you would say, you know aren't aren't 50 00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 4: as good as the others, right the worst team, you're 51 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:16,959 Speaker 4: supposed to be one of the best. 52 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 5: And that's exactly what they're doing. 53 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 4: Where we're gonna if we go back to last year, 54 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:23,040 Speaker 4: it wasn't like that. You're you're seeing these teams that 55 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:25,680 Speaker 4: you were probably better than, but you were still getting 56 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:26,280 Speaker 4: beat by them. 57 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 5: So so for all the haters, you know, you should 58 00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:29,120 Speaker 5: be happy. 59 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 4: You should be happy that you're actually taking care of 60 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,640 Speaker 4: business and the teams you're supposed to be so so 61 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 4: to get that out of my system. But as far 62 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 4: as this defense is concerned, I mean, we've always known 63 00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 4: this secondary has been good, right, We've always known for 64 00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:43,640 Speaker 4: the last couple of years. We've always thought these guys 65 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 4: are talented. And now I think what's different is they 66 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:49,080 Speaker 4: finally have a front end to help them. They have 67 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,359 Speaker 4: that the front linemen that are that are performing amazing. 68 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:53,920 Speaker 5: I mean when you look at some of these numbers, some. 69 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 4: Of these numbers I pulled up here that were, you know, 70 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:58,079 Speaker 4: their third in pressure rate, you know, but they only 71 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 4: blitzed nineteen percent of the time, which is one of 72 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:02,800 Speaker 4: the bottom third in the league. So they're getting pressure 73 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:04,960 Speaker 4: without having to send the extra guy. So that helps 74 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 4: your back end. That's more guys on the back end defending, 75 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 4: and and if they can keep doing that, the game 76 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:13,360 Speaker 4: bomber receivers, you know. And so as much as we 77 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 4: hate to talk about the front end, you know, the 78 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:19,080 Speaker 4: offensive lineman, thee oh, come on, I love the line, 79 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:20,359 Speaker 4: you know, to me. 80 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 5: I don't know what's going on up there. You know. 81 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:25,240 Speaker 5: I like the touchdowns and that you are plays. 82 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,799 Speaker 4: But but as much as I don't like to talk 83 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 4: about it, it all starts up there, and that's the 84 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 4: most important thing. And when the front end gets it done, 85 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 4: it makes life so much easier on the back end. 86 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 5: And that's what's going on now with all those pressures. 87 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 2: And I think that's what we saw with the Dolphins now. Toua, Hey, 88 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 2: do what's best for you and your family and your career. 89 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 2: But as soon as Scylett Thompson was slotted as a starter, 90 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 2: I felt like this team was going to be easier 91 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 2: to beat. And a prime example of that was Gino 92 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 2: Smith is in the end zone. He tosses the fullball 93 00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 2: outians on trying to avoid the side getting it's Zach 94 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 2: Scharboname Sharbonay ends up tipping the full ball up. They 95 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 2: get the ball inside the five. Four plays are three 96 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 2: plays have to kick it on kick a field goal, 97 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 2: and this defense does exactly what they're supposed to do 98 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,359 Speaker 2: that right, There was a defining moment for me looking 99 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 2: at this defense. 100 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 3: I don't care who you are, I can get eleven. 101 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 2: Fifteen year olds lined up inside the five, we might 102 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,160 Speaker 2: be able to put the ball in the end zone. 103 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 2: So seeing them bow up against an NFL team in 104 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 2: that situation was huge for me. 105 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 3: What did it mean for you? 106 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:31,480 Speaker 6: Yeah? 107 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:33,840 Speaker 4: And they've done that time after time already this year. 108 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:37,000 Speaker 4: Take go to the Denver game the first week. How 109 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 4: many times that defense was backed up and they just 110 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 4: allowed three points? 111 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 3: Right? 112 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 4: I mean and three point To allow three points at 113 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 4: a time like that, that's game changing, and that's momentum 114 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 4: changing as well, because now the other team so at 115 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 4: that stage, the Dolphins come off the field, they go, man, 116 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:51,919 Speaker 4: we got had the big change, the big turnover, and 117 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,599 Speaker 4: we couldn't capitalize on that. We got the minimum that 118 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 4: we were going to get on that. And so they 119 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,039 Speaker 4: walk back to the bench and they and they're trying 120 00:04:58,040 --> 00:04:59,800 Speaker 4: to figure out what went wrong. The Seahawks are walking 121 00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:02,480 Speaker 4: back to the bench excited, happy, like, hey, that was 122 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 4: a game changing moment, the fact that we kept him out. 123 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:07,160 Speaker 5: And that's what this defense has done. They did it 124 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:07,599 Speaker 5: all game. 125 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:09,919 Speaker 4: They held the Dolphins on fourth down late in the 126 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:13,040 Speaker 4: game at the goal line. There was third down, big stop, 127 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 4: fourth down big stop, another third and one kind of 128 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 4: middle of the game that was a big stop. So 129 00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 4: the defense in times that they need these huge stops 130 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 4: has continued to step up. 131 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:24,480 Speaker 2: All right, So the big question out there is a 132 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 2: quarterback play. The first week you see bow Knicks, all right, rookie, 133 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 2: welcome to the NFL. The second week you see Jacoby Brissett, 134 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:34,840 Speaker 2: all right, veteran in the game, he's played a lot 135 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 2: of football, but not a guy that you're typically scared of. 136 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:41,080 Speaker 2: And then the third week you see Skyler Thompson, a 137 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 2: guy who hasn't had a lot of starts in this league. 138 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 3: Now, you played Jared Golf. Remember what we thought about 139 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 3: Jared goff Ball four or five years ago. Everyone thought 140 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 3: he was washed up, he's done in LA. But he 141 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 3: goes to Detroit and he looks really good. What are 142 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 3: your concerns when it comes to facing a quarterback like 143 00:05:58,160 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 3: Jared Golf? 144 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, Jared Golf, Well, we saw him a lot when 145 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 4: he was with the Rams. First off, So the Seahawks, 146 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:06,920 Speaker 4: I guess, I guess I'm aging myself now, right man? 147 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,480 Speaker 4: You know because this is obviously McDonald wasn't with the Seahawks, right, 148 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 4: he's played with the Rams, but I'm major. I think 149 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 4: of golf with the Rams still, right, But and now 150 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 4: you know, he's kind of resurfaced or rejuvenated his career 151 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 4: going to Detroit, and what you see is he's surrounded 152 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 4: with these weapons. Am Monroe, Saint Brown, Jamison Williams has 153 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 4: come alive. He's their big playmaker. Now they have a 154 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 4: run game. The run game is you know what Jamir 155 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 4: gives and David Montgomery that won two punch is just 156 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 4: as good as anybody in the entire league. So Golf 157 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 4: surround and the offensive line, the offensive line is probably 158 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 4: their big thing right now. They're a little banged up 159 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 4: right now, but the offensive line around Golf, So I 160 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 4: think I think Golf hasn't. 161 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 5: Had the hot start yet this year that you expect. 162 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,600 Speaker 4: I think he's thrown three touchdowns and four interceptions if 163 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 4: I remember correctly. But you know what he can do 164 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 4: with those weapons especially, and he's gonna target him like crazy. 165 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 4: Amnoe Saint Brown might get fifteen to twenty targets in 166 00:06:57,600 --> 00:06:59,720 Speaker 4: a game, and he's gonna keep going at his playmakers. 167 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 4: And I think that's what Jared Goff does best, is 168 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:06,119 Speaker 4: just keeps going to his playmaker playmakers over and over again. 169 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 4: And you know he's gonna put up some numbers. He's 170 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 4: gonna be tough. But to me, it is the first 171 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 4: true test. It is the first true test to this defense. 172 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:15,680 Speaker 4: I think bo Nicks is gonna be a good quarterback 173 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 4: in this league. It was tough that he had to 174 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 4: see the Seahawks first first game of his career. He's 175 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 4: going to continue to get better all year. Jacoby Brissette, 176 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 4: we know what he is. That team's a run first. 177 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 4: He's not gonna throw the ball downfield. That's exactly what 178 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 4: we saw last week Skyler Thompson hadn't played over a year. 179 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 4: You know, he was inactive for seventeen games last season 180 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 4: and so he hadn't played. So this was kind of 181 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:38,040 Speaker 4: his you know, back at it, get to the game 182 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 4: speed again. So we knew that was going. 183 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 5: To be bad. So this is the first real test. 184 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 4: So it'll be it'll be fun to see what the 185 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 4: DBS can do against a guy like Jared Goff. 186 00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, you got Jared Goff. You have Sam Laporter. We'll 187 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 2: see what his health is like once he gets going. 188 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 2: The thing that concerns me the most about the Detroit 189 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 2: Lions is that run game that you mentioned. You got 190 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 2: Montgomery who went for one hundred yards last game. You 191 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 2: have Gibbs who went for about over eight the rs 192 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 2: last game. There was a week week two against New 193 00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 2: England where this run defense didn't look great. Now we'll 194 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 2: see who's healthy when it comes to Monday night football. 195 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 2: You got big Cat Williams who might be banged up. 196 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 2: You have Byron Murphy who might be banged ub any 197 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 2: concerns with that defensive line when it comes to stopping 198 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:17,680 Speaker 2: this run. 199 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 4: Well, if they're all healthy, no, I don't think so 200 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 4: I think they've performed well so far. 201 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 5: You saw the Dolphins. 202 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 4: Dolphins gash them a couple times in that game here 203 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 4: and there for you know, maybe a ten yard game, 204 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 4: but what they held strong. You know, after you get gashed, 205 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:33,720 Speaker 4: then that was it. That was that was all you saw. 206 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 4: It wasn't a gash after gash that you saw you know, 207 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 4: Sharp and Age do against the Dolphins that last drive 208 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 4: of the game when they when he was able to 209 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:43,040 Speaker 4: pound it in. So they've always made the adjustments and 210 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 4: that's what you've seen from this defense the entire years. 211 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:49,439 Speaker 4: When something's not working, it's not the continued all game long, 212 00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:53,600 Speaker 4: it's not working, they make the changes. And this defensive line, 213 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 4: you put them up. 214 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 5: You can put them up with anybody. 215 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:57,680 Speaker 4: When you name these you know with Byron Murphy and 216 00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 4: Leonard Williams and Jonathan Hankin and Jared Reid, right, I 217 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,839 Speaker 4: mean those guys in the middle and Draymond Jones now 218 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:07,320 Speaker 4: he's kind of playing in the middle a little bit 219 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:09,959 Speaker 4: too somewhat. So those are guys that can just stuff 220 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 4: the middle and it makes it makes life again so 221 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:13,200 Speaker 4: much easier on the back end. 222 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 5: And then you. 223 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 4: Know Tyrrel Dotson I thought had a phenomenal game as well, 224 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 4: filling in for those guys. 225 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:21,439 Speaker 2: So we talked about some challenges that this team might 226 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:24,320 Speaker 2: face against the Detroit Lions. But there's something that I 227 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 2: love that we're gonna see. Dk Metcalf has an opportunity to. 228 00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:31,840 Speaker 3: Be the first receiver in Seahawk history to go back 229 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:33,680 Speaker 3: to back to back one hundred yard games. That is 230 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 3: crazy to me, the first ever do it fifteen seconds? 231 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:37,960 Speaker 3: What do you think about that? 232 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:40,679 Speaker 4: I think DK is a different receiver this year, and 233 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:42,839 Speaker 4: I don't know what it is. Is it grub, is 234 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 4: it just maturing or what? But he looks good. He 235 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:47,720 Speaker 4: looks different, and you expect on hundred yards from HM. 236 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 2: Now, DK, come on fourteen, get it done against is 237 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:53,199 Speaker 2: the Detroit Lions at defense? When we come back, we'll 238 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:57,200 Speaker 2: get an opponent preview from Tim Twentyman from Detroit Lions 239 00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 2: dot com. 240 00:09:57,840 --> 00:09:59,559 Speaker 3: That is next right here on Hawk's Lock. 241 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:04,560 Speaker 1: Hawks Live presented by the Dining District of the Bellevue 242 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 1: Collection at the Bellevue Square Center Cord Live on air 243 00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:09,320 Speaker 1: on Seattle Sports. 244 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,120 Speaker 2: You are listening to Hawks Lide presented by the Dining 245 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:15,839 Speaker 2: District after Bellvy Collection, the show starts at seven every 246 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 2: Thursday right here on Seattle Sports seven to ten, broadcasting 247 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 2: live from Belvy Square Center Cording. Now we're joined by 248 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:23,520 Speaker 2: Tim twenty Man. What's up? 249 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 3: Tim? 250 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:25,320 Speaker 7: Hey? Bum Brian? 251 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:25,960 Speaker 8: How you guys doing? 252 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:26,680 Speaker 5: Hey? 253 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 2: We are well? Man twenty men? Which death upon me? 254 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 3: I don't know if our audience knows that, but it 255 00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:35,560 Speaker 3: just felt right, so I had to do it. Tim. Hey, 256 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 3: how you guys feeling about this matchup? Man? 257 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:41,439 Speaker 2: It's it feels like every year, at least the last 258 00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 2: what two or three years, that this is a measuring 259 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 2: stick for US. Now, you guys have played probably better 260 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:49,960 Speaker 2: opponents in the first three weeks of the season for US. 261 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 2: There was an opportunity last week to play against two 262 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:55,079 Speaker 2: it he's down, So you take that win against Miami 263 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 2: as a win. But you know watching the Seahawks play 264 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,040 Speaker 2: that this is going to be the true test. How 265 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 2: do you guys feeling about this one? 266 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 4: Yeah? 267 00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:05,200 Speaker 8: I think it's the toughest challenge for both teams so 268 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:07,520 Speaker 8: far this year. And look, they get a national stage, 269 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:09,960 Speaker 8: and look, if you're Seattle, you can pump your chest 270 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,440 Speaker 8: out a little bit. I think it's three straight years 271 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 8: that they've beaten Detroit. They've been some shootouts. They've been 272 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:18,440 Speaker 8: really good offensively throwing the football, and so that's the 273 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,600 Speaker 8: test for Detroit. You know, they remade the secondary because 274 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,080 Speaker 8: they struggled with teams like Seattle last year. They struggled 275 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:27,880 Speaker 8: down the stretch with passing attacks and big performances. 276 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 7: From wide receivers. 277 00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:30,360 Speaker 8: So they went out and traded for Carlton Davis, They 278 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 8: got to meet Robinson, they drafted Terry and Arnold. They 279 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 8: moved Brian Branch to safety, and so you know, it's 280 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 8: for games like this and teams like this, and so 281 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:41,280 Speaker 8: I think it'll be a good measuring stick for that 282 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:43,319 Speaker 8: defense in that secondary Detroit as well. 283 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 4: Hey Tim, First off, I have to apologize about bump singing. 284 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 4: And I know it's laid out there like ten fifteen 285 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 4: out in Detroit and you had to put up with that. 286 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 4: I'm so sorry, but but yeah, all right, guy, it 287 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 4: wasn't true. 288 00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:00,400 Speaker 3: I'm good. I'm good at karaoke night you are. 289 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 5: That's a good point, hey, Tim. 290 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:06,079 Speaker 4: You know, going back to last season's NFC Championship appearance 291 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:08,680 Speaker 4: and then now to this season, can you kind of 292 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:11,120 Speaker 4: give me kind of a broad like, you know, where 293 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 4: have the Lions gotten better in your opinion from last 294 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 4: year's team, and where have they gotten worse from last year's. 295 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:19,560 Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, well, you know I talked about the secondary 296 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 8: off the top. That was really, you know, the big 297 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 8: goal for for giem Brad Holmes this offseason. You know, 298 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:29,600 Speaker 8: Detroit was twenty seventh passing last year. They allowed the 299 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:32,200 Speaker 8: most twenty plus yard passes. They had to get better there, 300 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:34,719 Speaker 8: so they did and you know, to help that, as 301 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 8: you guys know, good pass events in this league is 302 00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:39,840 Speaker 8: a marriage between your rush and your cover. We talked 303 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,600 Speaker 8: about what additions they made in the secondary, but you 304 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:46,600 Speaker 8: know they also got Marcus Davenport. Unfortunately they lose him 305 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 8: for the entire rest of the season from last year. 306 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:51,080 Speaker 8: But they also got DJ Reader and that was a 307 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:55,320 Speaker 8: really you know, undervalued free agent signing for this team 308 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 8: because you put him next to Alee McNeil, and now 309 00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:00,760 Speaker 8: inside you've got two guys that are ten by Pro 310 00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 8: football focus against the run, but can give you a 311 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:05,760 Speaker 8: little push too. And then we've all seen what Aidan's doing, 312 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 8: so you push that center right, you don't allow that 313 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 8: quarterback to step up. And now you've got a guy 314 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:12,840 Speaker 8: like Aiden Hudgins who's playing his best football on the edge. 315 00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 8: And you know, between that and what they've done in 316 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 8: the secondary, that's what they're really better. You know, where 317 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 8: did they get worse? It's really hard to say it 318 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 8: with this football team because you look at them offensively, 319 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:24,960 Speaker 8: they still got one of the best offensive lines in football. 320 00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 8: Jamis and Williams now emerged as a threat at the 321 00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:30,960 Speaker 8: receiver corps. You still have Aman rof with Saint Brown, 322 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:33,960 Speaker 8: You've got a po bowler in Sam Laporte. I think, 323 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:36,040 Speaker 8: you know, the one thing we've noticed from the first 324 00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,439 Speaker 8: three weeks is the pass game has been a little 325 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 8: bit off. You know, some of the numbers are there, 326 00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 8: but you know, this is a team that's been really 327 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:44,560 Speaker 8: good in the red zone and they're twenty eighth in 328 00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 8: the league in red zone. They were one of seven 329 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 8: and they're lost to Tampa Bay. It's really why they lost. 330 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:52,480 Speaker 8: So you know, they're much better defensively than what the 331 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:54,840 Speaker 8: Seahawks has seen the last few years, and you know, 332 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:57,680 Speaker 8: they've got all the weapons offensively, I think they're still 333 00:13:57,720 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 8: trying to figure it out a little bit in the past, 334 00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:02,280 Speaker 8: and that would be one area where they certainly have 335 00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:04,720 Speaker 8: to get better moving forward and certainly Monday night because 336 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:06,600 Speaker 8: I expect Seattle'll be able to score in football. 337 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:10,720 Speaker 3: Tim, I respect Jared Goff to the utmost. Man. 338 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,320 Speaker 2: I think he found a second life over there with 339 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:14,600 Speaker 2: the Detroit Lions. 340 00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 3: What's the feeling like with him? 341 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:19,320 Speaker 2: Because there was that new car smell right, it feels good. 342 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:21,680 Speaker 2: And then you know, I bought a truck like two 343 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 2: or three years ago. I'm already ready for a new 344 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:25,400 Speaker 2: one because I see these other trucks driving around and 345 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 2: I want one of those. Like, what's it like with 346 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,400 Speaker 2: Jared goff Man? Is he still being appreciated over there? 347 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:32,840 Speaker 2: Are their higher expectations. What is it like for Jared 348 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:33,680 Speaker 2: Goff in Detroit? 349 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 8: Well, certainly there's higher expectations. There's higher expectations for everybody 350 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 8: when you go to the NFC Championship game and then 351 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:40,880 Speaker 8: you feel like a football team that you got better. 352 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:43,400 Speaker 8: Now you're talking super Bowl, And that's been the conversation 353 00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:46,600 Speaker 8: this offseason in Detroit, that that's the expectation, you know 354 00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 8: with Jared. You know, we were still getting Jared Goff 355 00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 8: chants from Wayans fans in Arizona. You guys got to remember, 356 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:54,560 Speaker 8: this is a football team that hadn't won a division 357 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 8: title in thirty years, They didn't want to playoff in 358 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 8: thirty years, and Jared Golf gave him that. Man, he 359 00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:00,640 Speaker 8: gave him a heck of a run last season, and 360 00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:02,960 Speaker 8: Detroit fans aren't going to forget that after all the 361 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:06,160 Speaker 8: years that they didn't have stuff like that. So, you know, look, 362 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:09,000 Speaker 8: Jared's I don't think played his best football to start. 363 00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:10,880 Speaker 8: You look at passing around the league, it's a little 364 00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 8: bit down. We always talk about September football. With all 365 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 8: these guys not playing in the preseason. You know, it 366 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 8: takes a little bit of time to kind of catch 367 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 8: their stride. But Detroit is certainly the excuse me. Jared 368 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 8: Goff is certainly the guy in Detroit. He signed obviously 369 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 8: the massive contract in the offseason. But he fits this 370 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:29,480 Speaker 8: football team, right. It's a greedy football team. You talk 371 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:31,600 Speaker 8: about a guy who's had to go through some adversity 372 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:34,680 Speaker 8: that certainly fits this city and so in this football team. 373 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:36,480 Speaker 8: And you know, now they're on the other side of 374 00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 8: it and they think Jared Golf could take him to 375 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 8: the prom slams. 376 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 4: Hey, Tim, I know you guys are kind of banged 377 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:45,280 Speaker 4: up there on the defensive side. You know, you don't 378 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 4: have Derek Barnes, you know, Marcus Davenport anymore. But I 379 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:50,720 Speaker 4: look at your roster and I still see a guy 380 00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,600 Speaker 4: there named Aiden Hutchinson. And he no matter who you 381 00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:56,520 Speaker 4: don't have, when you see that Detroit has that guy, 382 00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:58,840 Speaker 4: you get a little worried. Talk to me about him 383 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 4: and the importance to this defense, sence, this team and 384 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:02,280 Speaker 4: what he brings to the table. 385 00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:05,240 Speaker 8: Yeah, he brings everything. You know, I put him up 386 00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 8: there in the you know TJ category. I think he's 387 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:11,520 Speaker 8: that kind of player now in his third season, He's 388 00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:14,320 Speaker 8: done everything right. He's got a motor that doesn't quit, 389 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:17,760 Speaker 8: all the physical tools, the toolbox. You know, he's just 390 00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 8: coming into his own and it's scary to think. I mean, 391 00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 8: he's the twenty four year old guy who's got six 392 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:25,840 Speaker 8: and a half sacks and three games and you know, 393 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:28,880 Speaker 8: losing Marcus Davin for it. I think it's going to 394 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:32,200 Speaker 8: be interesting to watch moving forward because you know, he 395 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 8: provided a lot. You know, he had four quarterback hits 396 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:37,440 Speaker 8: in a sack the first week, then got hurt and 397 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:40,680 Speaker 8: unfortunately got hurt again. You know, they talk about squeezing 398 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:42,640 Speaker 8: the can on that defensive line right when you have 399 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 8: DJ Reader and Lead mcneilup the middle, hutch on the 400 00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:47,760 Speaker 8: other side. So can they get something else from somebody 401 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:50,520 Speaker 8: else over there, whether it's Levi owns Rique, whether it's 402 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:53,560 Speaker 8: Josh Pascal, James Houston, because I think what you're going 403 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:56,760 Speaker 8: to see now if they don't is, you know, Aiden's 404 00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:58,320 Speaker 8: not going to see a single coverage. I know you 405 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 8: guys got some tackle issues there. Stone might play, you know, 406 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,399 Speaker 8: he did pretty good last year, but he's going to 407 00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:06,000 Speaker 8: need help. And I think that's going to be the 408 00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 8: formula is teams are going to put you guys over there, 409 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:10,439 Speaker 8: They're gonna chip the running back, They're going to put 410 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:13,040 Speaker 8: all their focus on Hutchinson. And I think it's really 411 00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 8: up for those guys on the other side to make 412 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:18,040 Speaker 8: sure that teams don't do that because the lak Hutchinson 413 00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:20,879 Speaker 8: is an elite player now and if you try to 414 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:23,080 Speaker 8: just lock him one on one, he's gonna beat you. 415 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:26,679 Speaker 8: And he's that type of rusher now, he's that level. 416 00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:30,439 Speaker 8: And so it'll be interesting to see starting Monday, you 417 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:32,400 Speaker 8: know what kind of production you get from the other side, 418 00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:33,720 Speaker 8: because that could start to affect eight. 419 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:37,919 Speaker 2: Tim We know the NFL is full of egos, Like 420 00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:39,919 Speaker 2: you're supposed to have an ego, or you wouldn't have 421 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:43,160 Speaker 2: made it this far in your career. So I look 422 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:45,200 Speaker 2: at that running back room you guys have over there 423 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:48,639 Speaker 2: with Montgomery and with Gibbs, and would imagine that every 424 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:50,679 Speaker 2: those two guys want to touch the ball as much 425 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:53,240 Speaker 2: as possible. But if they're smart, they realize that, look, 426 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:56,119 Speaker 2: if I can, you know, share the touches with with 427 00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:57,200 Speaker 2: this guy and the next. 428 00:17:57,040 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 3: Guy, then my career extend a little bit. 429 00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:04,520 Speaker 2: What's the vibe with that room in those two when 430 00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:06,200 Speaker 2: it comes to sharing the workload. 431 00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:09,640 Speaker 8: Yeah, they're really closed. It's big brother little brother type 432 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 8: deal in that room, and they both realize that. I mean, 433 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:14,719 Speaker 8: you just have to go back to Week one and 434 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:17,199 Speaker 8: look at what David Montgomery did in overtime against the 435 00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:20,199 Speaker 8: La Rams, Right, you ran six times in overtime for 436 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:22,560 Speaker 8: sixty yards. They ran it right down their throat and 437 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:24,760 Speaker 8: won the game at overtime. You don't do that if 438 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:27,720 Speaker 8: you've got twenty twenty five carries before that. You do 439 00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:30,560 Speaker 8: that because you're fresh, you know, because you've got another 440 00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:32,400 Speaker 8: guy that takes some of the load and can make 441 00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 8: big plays. And so it's a perfect combo. You know, 442 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 8: you're running behind one of the best offensive lines of football, 443 00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:40,920 Speaker 8: and then you've got a guy that is really tough 444 00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:44,399 Speaker 8: to tackle in Montgomery always gets the extra yards. Fits 445 00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:48,000 Speaker 8: the physicality right can also make you know, some big 446 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 8: plays as well. But then now you go to those 447 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:52,680 Speaker 8: outside runs and you're a defender. You've got to catch 448 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:55,600 Speaker 8: those angles or Jamier Dibbs is gone. You saw what 449 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:57,439 Speaker 8: you can do in the passing game. You saw the 450 00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:00,200 Speaker 8: trick play later of the twenty yard touchdown last week 451 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:02,720 Speaker 8: in Arizona. That's what you hear Gibbs brings. And so 452 00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:06,240 Speaker 8: they're a perfect compliment to each other. And you're right there. 453 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:09,040 Speaker 8: Ego lists, ego lists, excuse me. You know they know 454 00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:12,280 Speaker 8: that this is extending them for games, it's extending their careers, 455 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:15,200 Speaker 8: like you mentioned. And you can have two thousand yard 456 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:17,719 Speaker 8: backs in the same season. We've seen it before and 457 00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:19,679 Speaker 8: that's the goal for those two. And you know, if 458 00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:22,359 Speaker 8: they keep running the way they are, it's certainly attainable. 459 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:26,920 Speaker 4: Hey, you're sitting here with two receivers, so I can't 460 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:29,119 Speaker 4: let you go without asking you about the whiteouts. And 461 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:30,840 Speaker 4: we all know what am and el Saint Brown brings 462 00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:32,960 Speaker 4: to you guys, you know all the targets and everything, 463 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:35,000 Speaker 4: how good he is. But there's a guy that's really 464 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:37,600 Speaker 4: emerged and that's Jameson Williams. The first couple of games. 465 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:40,399 Speaker 4: I mean, he was your main playmaker. What have you 466 00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:43,440 Speaker 4: seen from him so far? And has he surprised you. 467 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 5: A little bit? 468 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 8: You know, I wouldn't say surprised because we've seen it 469 00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 8: really all the way back to OTA's and certainly saw 470 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:52,359 Speaker 8: in training camp. And look as a young man, that's 471 00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 8: you know, grown up a little bit. And he would 472 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:57,480 Speaker 8: admit that too. Obviously, had the red shirt year, his 473 00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:01,200 Speaker 8: his rookie season because of the ACL tear at Alabama 474 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:04,280 Speaker 8: was suspended the first four games. Had to mature, had 475 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:05,679 Speaker 8: to grow up a little bit, had to become a 476 00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:08,560 Speaker 8: professional football player. And credit to him, he did that 477 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:11,720 Speaker 8: this offseason and what he gives this line's offense is 478 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:15,159 Speaker 8: something they didn't have consistently when he wasn't taking sixty 479 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 8: seventy eighty percent of the snaps, you know, his first 480 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:21,000 Speaker 8: two years, and that's a deep threat. Look, you can 481 00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:23,400 Speaker 8: count on one hand the guys in this league. They're 482 00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 8: as fast as Jamison Williams. 483 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 7: I mean that that list is worthy. 484 00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 8: Tyreek Hill, He's in that category. And so now you've 485 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:33,119 Speaker 8: got all these weapons like Sam Laporta, like a not 486 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 8: I'm on Rossaint Brown across the middle of the field. 487 00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:37,600 Speaker 8: And now you've got a four to two guy that 488 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:39,919 Speaker 8: can stretch it and make plays. And so what do 489 00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:41,680 Speaker 8: you do as a defense? Who are you gonna guard 490 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 8: in the middlefield? Who you're gonna double? You're not gonna 491 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 8: double them on ross An Brown? Okay, well he'll catch 492 00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 8: ten balls. You're gonna single cover Jamison Williams. Okay, we'll 493 00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:53,320 Speaker 8: take that shot. Something we haven't had consistently. And so 494 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:56,560 Speaker 8: it just brings that deep dangerous element. I think he 495 00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,720 Speaker 8: opens up, you know, catches for other guys in the 496 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:01,720 Speaker 8: middle field because of his threat. And then if you 497 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:05,239 Speaker 8: decide to get lazy, if you decide to you know, 498 00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:07,680 Speaker 8: attack something else and you leave him one on one, 499 00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:10,560 Speaker 8: good luck having a safety or cornerback that can run 500 00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:14,160 Speaker 8: with him. And so that's the threat that he gives 501 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:16,119 Speaker 8: this offense, and it just makes it so much more 502 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:17,960 Speaker 8: dangerous than what we've even seen the last couple of 503 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:20,120 Speaker 8: years when they were top five offense in this league. 504 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:24,480 Speaker 3: He is Tim twenty men from Detroit Lions dot Com. 505 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:27,120 Speaker 2: Man, we appreciate talking to you.

When I 548 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:16,479 Speaker 2: saw you light up the running back on that screen, 549 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:20,040 Speaker 2: I had to grab somebody next to me and contain 550 00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:21,000 Speaker 2: my excitement. 551 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:22,440 Speaker 3: Man, Take me through that play. 552 00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:24,680 Speaker 2: Did you was that something you guys saw on film 553 00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:26,159 Speaker 2: that you felt that was going to happen? 554 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:28,480 Speaker 3: Did you just read or react to what happened there? 555 00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:33,960 Speaker 7: We knew their tight end number nine was a guy 556 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:36,920 Speaker 7: they wanted to tight end, and he kind of came 557 00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:38,359 Speaker 7: out of the backfield chips and it was like a 558 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,040 Speaker 7: chip screen. We knew he was someone that they wanted 559 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:42,639 Speaker 7: to get to get the ball to when he was 560 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:47,160 Speaker 7: in the game, you know, just recognizing that playing my 561 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:50,719 Speaker 7: zone coverage and having vision back on the quarterback. After that, 562 00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:52,760 Speaker 7: it was really just it was just the read and 563 00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 7: react type of thing.

I was looking at 568 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:09,240 Speaker 4: the inside linebackers, and I think you're now the the 569 00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:12,480 Speaker 4: the longest tenured Seahawks on the roster for the linebackers, 570 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:14,919 Speaker 4: you know, because last year you you were played with 571 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,920 Speaker 4: guys like Bobby Wagner, Jordan Brooks.

How's how's the room? 580 00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:38,520 Speaker 7: Going back to last year with Bobby and JB Jordan Brooks, 581 00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:41,679 Speaker 7: that was a great experience for me.

Yeah, you do? 619 00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:28,040 Speaker 5: Is there a little rivalry going on with this? 620 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:28,720 Speaker 7: Then? What? 621 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:29,280 Speaker 5: How? 622 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 7: What? 623 00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:31,880 Speaker 4: How often do you talk to them throughout the week. 624 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:33,760 Speaker 4: I'm curious and what are you talking about? The Vikings 625 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:36,400 Speaker 4: are on a role themselves. What's that banter? 626 00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:41,840 Speaker 7: Like, I wouldn't say it's even banter right now. It's 627 00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 7: just you know, we've probably talked twice a week, honestly, 628 00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:49,400 Speaker 7: and everything's so busy right now, it's hard to it's 629 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 7: hard to keep up with everybody. But we definitely talk 630 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 7: multiple times a week, and it's honestly just wishing each 631 00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,960 Speaker 7: other the best. It's no banter right now, or like, honestly, 632 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:03,040 Speaker 7: competition when it comes Vikings week, obviously that's a little different, 633 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:05,280 Speaker 7: but right now it's just it's all love. 634 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:08,399 Speaker 2: I was gonna say once y'all square up. It might 635 00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 2: be a little different, but it's ali good right now. 636 00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:12,560 Speaker 2: Who's older? Is it you or your brother? 637 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:14,879 Speaker 7: He's older than me. 638 00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 3: He's older than you, all right, So you're showing up 639 00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:20,680 Speaker 3: a little bit of respect of it. I appreciate that. Man. 640 00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:24,720 Speaker 2: Hey, talk to me about the Mike McDonald defense, Like 641 00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:28,159 Speaker 2: we keep hearing about this last year. The Seahawks go 642 00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:31,240 Speaker 2: to Baltimore and that defense just does whatever they want, 643 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 2: right and now we're trying we're starting to see some 644 00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:37,040 Speaker 2: some of the things that he did in Baltimore what 645 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:40,840 Speaker 2: makes this defense so special for the average fan who 646 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:42,880 Speaker 2: doesn't really know the x's and o's the way that you. 647 00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:47,720 Speaker 7: Do, I would say just getting guys in the right 648 00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:50,679 Speaker 7: position to be effective in the game, you know, based 649 00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:54,399 Speaker 7: off what they're good at. I think he really utilizes 650 00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:58,320 Speaker 7: personnel well. And I think that's the game plan and 651 00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:02,280 Speaker 7: attacking teams and what they're doing. It's just it's on 652 00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:06,080 Speaker 7: another level and it's, you know, so much fun to play, 653 00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:10,160 Speaker 7: and you know, it's it's a lot of fun. Hey. 654 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:12,960 Speaker 4: And then from defense to special teams. There's the big 655 00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:15,480 Speaker 4: talk of the NFL this year is the new kickoff rules. 656 00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:17,639 Speaker 4: And I know you've you've been on both. You've been 657 00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 4: on last year's kickoff version and then you've been on 658 00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:21,720 Speaker 4: this year's version of the kickoff.

We'll see if Laporte is healthy 674 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:05,840 Speaker 2: or not, and try to make it a real physical game. 675 00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:08,080 Speaker 2: What do you see when you look at film on 676 00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:09,680 Speaker 2: the on the Detroit Lions. 677 00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:15,600 Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean that's the identity, uh, that they that 678 00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:20,480 Speaker 7: they take just being a physical, high effort, smash mouths 679 00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:23,040 Speaker 7: football team, and you see it on film too.

Be biggest surprise 758 00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:12,720 Speaker 3: to me, It is surprising, it isn't. I thought Sam Darnold. 759 00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:15,240 Speaker 2: Was gonna go out there involve this year, and people 760 00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:17,840 Speaker 2: called me crazy, Like, what are you talking about? And 761 00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:20,080 Speaker 2: he's played for the Jets and for the Panthers that 762 00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:22,880 Speaker 2: nothing has happened, And I go, look, he hasn't had 763 00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:27,080 Speaker 2: the talent that the Vikings have surrounded by him. So 764 00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:29,880 Speaker 2: I'm I'm surprised by that, but I'm not. At the 765 00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:32,040 Speaker 2: same time, what surprises you? 766 00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:34,560 Speaker 4: No, that's that doesn't surprise me at all. Just throw 767 00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 4: it up to Justin Jefferson and you know you're probably 768 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:39,440 Speaker 4: gonna complete half your passes at least. That's that's my thoughts. 769 00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:41,000 Speaker 4: If I was quarterback, I'd want to go throw it 770 00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:43,480 Speaker 4: to him. That's one hundred percent for sure. But uh, 771 00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:47,600 Speaker 4: what else is surprising is Andy Dalton with the Panthers. 772 00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:50,760 Speaker 4: I mean, I thought the Panthers, you know you could 773 00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:54,320 Speaker 4: I was. I was more on the side of Bryce Young. 774 00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:57,520 Speaker 4: Isn't that bad? Like I think it's a system thing 775 00:33:57,800 --> 00:34:00,360 Speaker 4: and maybe people around it. But now than any Dalton 776 00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:02,960 Speaker 4: comes in and he does this thing there and the 777 00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:05,800 Speaker 4: Panthers get their first win the week after they bench 778 00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:08,080 Speaker 4: Bryce Young. Now I'm starting to worry about Bryce Young 779 00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:10,680 Speaker 4: a little bit. That I wasn't on that train until 780 00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:12,120 Speaker 4: I just I saw it happen in real. 781 00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:14,600 Speaker 3: I feel so bad for Bryce young. 782 00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:17,360 Speaker 2: I felt like he was this delta bad hand. The 783 00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:20,840 Speaker 2: kid or the young man obviously is talented, but you 784 00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:23,640 Speaker 2: need to be put in a good situation. Going back 785 00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:26,719 Speaker 2: to Sam Darnold, right, perfect example. He comes into the league. 786 00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:29,440 Speaker 2: He can throw the football, he's an alright quarterback, but 787 00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:31,719 Speaker 2: you need to be surrounded by talent. All right, let's 788 00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:33,799 Speaker 2: talk about our ex. Okay, you guys ready to talk 789 00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:36,879 Speaker 2: about our ex. Okay, let's do it. Russell Wilson, all right. 790 00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:40,120 Speaker 2: I wish nothing but the best for my guy, Russell Wilson, 791 00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:42,760 Speaker 2: But he is our ex and he's over there getting 792 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:47,160 Speaker 2: beat out by a younger, probably more physically talented young 793 00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:51,600 Speaker 2: man than when he had calf injuries. I tap, my boy, 794 00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:54,359 Speaker 2: I go, that's just turning thirty. Once you turn thirty, man, 795 00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:56,279 Speaker 2: things start to happen to your body. And that's what's 796 00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:59,800 Speaker 2: happening with Russell Wilson. So now Justin feels is the 797 00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:03,440 Speaker 2: over there. What do you see for the future in Pittsburgh. 798 00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:06,040 Speaker 2: Do you think there's a scenario where Russell comes back 799 00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:08,279 Speaker 2: and takes over or do you think that is Justin 800 00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:10,239 Speaker 2: Field's show for the rest of the year. 801 00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:13,359 Speaker 4: I think that this actually happened earlier than I thought 802 00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:15,520 Speaker 4: it would happen. I thought maybe week four, week five, 803 00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:18,360 Speaker 4: Justin Fields might get the opportunity to take over for Russ. 804 00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:22,600 Speaker 4: But I don't see the Steelers looking back at all. 805 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:25,319 Speaker 4: I think, barring an injury, injury will get Russ in there. 806 00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:29,800 Speaker 4: But when you're winning, you're not changing anything. And unfortunately, 807 00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:31,719 Speaker 4: I'm kind of on the other end of it. I 808 00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:34,600 Speaker 4: don't think that the wins are a quarterback stat I 809 00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:36,560 Speaker 4: think there's a lot more going on in Pittsburgh right 810 00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:39,279 Speaker 4: now than Justin Field's winning games for the Pittsburgh That 811 00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:42,239 Speaker 4: defense has been playing outstanding and all that. But that's 812 00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:44,480 Speaker 4: the beauty of being a quarterback. I'm just jealous. I 813 00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:46,879 Speaker 4: never was one, because you get all the glory you could. 814 00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:49,279 Speaker 4: You could, you know, throw four interceptions in a game 815 00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:52,200 Speaker 4: and win the game by three because your defense, you know, 816 00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:53,800 Speaker 4: made all the stops and you still. 817 00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:55,719 Speaker 5: Get the win and you still get the credit for 818 00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:56,120 Speaker 5: that win. 819 00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:58,160 Speaker 3: But that's real. We're receivers. 820 00:35:58,360 --> 00:35:58,840 Speaker 5: Receivers. 821 00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:01,960 Speaker 2: We can drop a big a big pass, but as 822 00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:03,600 Speaker 2: long as you score the winning touchdown. 823 00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:06,040 Speaker 5: We're good. You forget about that drop pass real quick. 824 00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:09,200 Speaker 3: It never happened. It never happened. Let's keep going around 825 00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:09,760 Speaker 3: the NFL. 826 00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:13,320 Speaker 2: Man, you got Will Levis over there with the Tennessee Titans. 827 00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:14,319 Speaker 3: He is struggling. 828 00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:17,840 Speaker 2: Now they drafted Milik Willis a year before they drafted 829 00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:18,680 Speaker 2: uh Levis. 830 00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:20,120 Speaker 3: Now Willis is over. 831 00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:22,439 Speaker 2: With the Green Bay Packers got them to two and one. 832 00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:26,279 Speaker 2: Another example of just having to be in the right situation. 833 00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:29,120 Speaker 2: What do you make of that, the Levis and Milick 834 00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:29,840 Speaker 2: Willis situation. 835 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:33,080 Speaker 4: I thought that the Titans, we're in a weird situation. 836 00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:35,200 Speaker 4: But all they had like three quarterbacks on their roster 837 00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 4: day because they had Tannehill as well, So they had Tannehill, Tannehill, Levis, 838 00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:43,960 Speaker 4: and Milik Willis. Right, and when you have those three guys, 839 00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:46,279 Speaker 4: I don't I just think that's a losing situation because 840 00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:48,640 Speaker 4: you're not really giving confidence to either one, to anyone, 841 00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:51,279 Speaker 4: and so someone's gonna fall. But I mean, good for 842 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:53,719 Speaker 4: Milik Willis going to Green Bay taking you know, he's 843 00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:56,239 Speaker 4: back up to Jordan Love. Jordan Love goes down, Milik 844 00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:58,560 Speaker 4: Willis comes in and has you know, he threw for 845 00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:01,000 Speaker 4: two touchdowns, ran for one and did exactly what you're 846 00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:03,040 Speaker 4: supposed to do in that situation. He was ready for it, 847 00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:07,919 Speaker 4: and the Titans are sitting there going, you know, man, 848 00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:11,640 Speaker 4: we we we chose the mayonnaise guy. You know, the 849 00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:14,080 Speaker 4: guy he's spooning mayo out of the out of the jar. 850 00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:18,719 Speaker 4: But nothing wrong with mayonnaise. I like mayonnaise sometimes maybe 851 00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:21,799 Speaker 4: on a sandwich. But uh but but yeah, I don't know. 852 00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:23,480 Speaker 4: I mean, Malik Willis had to that had to have 853 00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:25,160 Speaker 4: been one of the best days of his life. Yeah, 854 00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:28,239 Speaker 4: going in and just outperforming the guy that you know 855 00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:30,880 Speaker 4: that took your spot, I guess per se and and 856 00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:32,759 Speaker 4: he went in and he's feeling good right now. 857 00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:35,680 Speaker 3: All right, let's let's let's go down the schedule for 858 00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:36,200 Speaker 3: this week. 859 00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:37,919 Speaker 2: Okay, I got it right here in front of us, 860 00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:40,200 Speaker 2: and there are some games that I'm looking forward to 861 00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:42,839 Speaker 2: see him. A game that's underrated, but I think people 862 00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:47,600 Speaker 2: should pay attention to is Jacksonville Jaguars against the Houston Texans, 863 00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:52,040 Speaker 2: because if the Jacksonville Jaguars lose this game and get dominated, 864 00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:55,120 Speaker 2: I'm telling you, Doug Peterson, who's from the state of Washington, 865 00:37:55,680 --> 00:37:58,359 Speaker 2: might be kicked out of there. I'm also looking at 866 00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:02,120 Speaker 2: Philly versus Tampa. Tampa came out Baker Mayfield had a 867 00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:05,080 Speaker 2: great year last year. They give them his money, and 868 00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:07,480 Speaker 2: now they seem like they've hit a wall a little 869 00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:09,160 Speaker 2: bit right there. Two and one for the year, but 870 00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:11,799 Speaker 2: you're going up against the Philadelphia Eagles who are trying 871 00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:13,680 Speaker 2: to figure some things out. Those are two games that 872 00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:15,840 Speaker 2: stick out to me just at first glance. 873 00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:17,000 Speaker 3: Be with six out two. 874 00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:19,760 Speaker 4: You know, I was just in Jacksonville, Florida this last weekend. 875 00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:22,359 Speaker 4: I used to play for the Jaguars, and so I 876 00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:24,520 Speaker 4: still have a place down there and I go occasionally, 877 00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:26,840 Speaker 4: and they've already given up on this squad. 878 00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:30,120 Speaker 5: All the fans everyone, they are, oh, they are done 879 00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:30,520 Speaker 5: with them. 880 00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:33,799 Speaker 4: They they have the games are too hot to go 881 00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:35,640 Speaker 4: to for them to perform like that. Like it's it's 882 00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:37,400 Speaker 4: hot down there. You go sit in that stadium. That 883 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:40,160 Speaker 4: stadium has no shade in it, and those the sun 884 00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:42,520 Speaker 4: just beats down on all the fans and they want 885 00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:43,040 Speaker 4: to see. 886 00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:44,640 Speaker 5: A good product and there is not a good product 887 00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:47,480 Speaker 5: right now. But rumor has it it'll. 888 00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:50,120 Speaker 4: Be the offensive coordinator that goes before really before Doug 889 00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:51,920 Speaker 4: Peterson leaves. 890 00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:53,600 Speaker 5: But that's a that's a tough situation. 891 00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:57,360 Speaker 4: One of the games that'll be curious is Cincinnati Carolina 892 00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:00,439 Speaker 4: to two teams just well, Carolina coming off the first 893 00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:02,799 Speaker 4: winning the season. Bengals haven't got a their win. That's 894 00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:05,080 Speaker 4: probably the most shocking thing to me so far this season. 895 00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:07,000 Speaker 4: The Bengals are zero and three because you look at 896 00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:10,600 Speaker 4: Joe Burrow and Jamar Chase and all that, and they 897 00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:13,440 Speaker 4: can't win. They can't win right now and they're not performing. 898 00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:16,040 Speaker 4: And that's trouble because they've already paid Burrow. You know 899 00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:19,040 Speaker 4: that that's something that's they can't have back, and they're 900 00:39:19,239 --> 00:39:21,120 Speaker 4: trying to work something out with Jamar Chase. But now 901 00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:23,520 Speaker 4: you almost see rumors of maybe them trading Jamar Chase 902 00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:27,320 Speaker 4: and just totally starting another rebuild. So, uh, the Bengals, 903 00:39:27,360 --> 00:39:30,080 Speaker 4: I still believe they can get back on track and 904 00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:32,080 Speaker 4: Panthers or the Panthers will probably be a good team 905 00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:34,719 Speaker 4: to to get back on track with. But now, I 906 00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:37,040 Speaker 4: mean the Panthers are kind of hot, high on life. 907 00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:39,320 Speaker 4: Dave Kanalis got his first win as a head coach, 908 00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:41,160 Speaker 4: So who knows what happens with that game? 909 00:39:41,280 --> 00:39:42,759 Speaker 3: All right? I need crowd participation. 910 00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:46,279 Speaker 2: Who's playing the best at the quarterback position right now 911 00:39:46,320 --> 00:39:53,120 Speaker 2: in the NFL? Josh Shallon, like, you know, we got 912 00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:55,880 Speaker 2: Josh Shallen. I think it's Josh Allen. I'm looking at 913 00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:59,760 Speaker 2: that game. You got the Buffalo Bills against the Baltimore Ravens. 914 00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:03,319 Speaker 2: The Ravens are struggling this year. You got to see 915 00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:05,160 Speaker 2: if they can bounce back. I saw when they picked 916 00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:07,439 Speaker 2: up Derrick Henry. We thought they were gonna be good 917 00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:11,239 Speaker 2: to go. But they're human, man, They're human. So I'm 918 00:40:11,239 --> 00:40:14,080 Speaker 2: looking at Josh Allen and the Baltimore Ravens and saying, 919 00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:16,600 Speaker 2: let's see what happens there. But it all comes down 920 00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:19,320 Speaker 2: on Monday night. Let's see what the Seahawks do against 921 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:21,560 Speaker 2: the Lions.

I was watching Sports 938 00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:14,560 Speaker 2: Center this morning, like I do every morning. A's like 939 00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:18,040 Speaker 2: getting ready for my dame, and Dan Orlowski has his 940 00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:20,919 Speaker 2: top five quarterbacks list and I go, there's no way 941 00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:23,479 Speaker 2: Geno Smith is gonna get some love on that list. 942 00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:26,279 Speaker 2: He ends up cracking cracking the list at five or four, 943 00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:28,719 Speaker 2: and I was I felt like a proud uncle. I go, 944 00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:31,200 Speaker 2: look at my guy out there, finally getting the love 945 00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:34,040 Speaker 2: that he deserves. Man, when you look at Geno Smith, 946 00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:36,520 Speaker 2: his play this year and his importance to the team. 947 00:41:36,360 --> 00:41:37,120 Speaker 3: With sticks out to you. 948 00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:39,120 Speaker 5: Yeah, finally getting the love he deserves. 949 00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:40,520 Speaker 4: I mean we've said this for a couple of years, 950 00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:43,480 Speaker 4: that he's the guy and he can get the job done. 951 00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:45,680 Speaker 4: You know what sticks out to me the most about 952 00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:48,680 Speaker 4: Geno is he's just Geno. I mean, he just he 953 00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:51,160 Speaker 4: takes care of the ball. And that being said, I 954 00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:53,400 Speaker 4: know a couple of tip passes this last game, but 955 00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:56,000 Speaker 4: it's not like they're bad decisions. You know, it's not 956 00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:57,680 Speaker 4: like he's making a bad reading and throwing it straight 957 00:41:57,719 --> 00:41:58,120 Speaker 4: to the DV. 958 00:41:58,360 --> 00:41:59,440 Speaker 5: You know, something had to happen. 959 00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:03,080 Speaker 4: But Gino, the way he moves in that pocket is 960 00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:05,920 Speaker 4: he does it better than anybody in the league in 961 00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:08,560 Speaker 4: my opinion. And one of the plays this last game, 962 00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:11,279 Speaker 4: he threw to Tyler Lockett over the middle. You know, 963 00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:13,400 Speaker 4: probably a ten yard pass, but he threw it as 964 00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:15,680 Speaker 4: he was getting hit and he kind of weaved and 965 00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:18,319 Speaker 4: Tyler Lockett hadn't even crossed the linebackers yet and he 966 00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:20,680 Speaker 4: threw it to an open spot, and so he was 967 00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:23,320 Speaker 4: He's showing a lot of anticipation to where he's throwing 968 00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:24,960 Speaker 4: a lot of these young quarterbacks in the league, they're 969 00:42:24,960 --> 00:42:25,919 Speaker 4: throwing when guys are open. 970 00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:28,799 Speaker 5: Gino's not. Gino's throwing before guys are open. 971 00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:31,400 Speaker 4: And that's what makes good quarterbacks great is when you 972 00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:33,880 Speaker 4: can anticipate where the receiver is going to be and 973 00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:35,399 Speaker 4: throw it before he becomes open. 974 00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:37,480 Speaker 5: And you're seeing that a lot from him this season. 975 00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:40,719 Speaker 2: It also helps him when you have a sixty three 976 00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:44,880 Speaker 2: twenty five pound receiver that you can just toss it 977 00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:48,520 Speaker 2: up to. But listen, I mean a quarterback is only 978 00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:51,520 Speaker 2: as good as his protection and his receivers. 979 00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:53,720 Speaker 3: Besides DK, who. 980 00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:56,120 Speaker 2: We're hoping goes for a third trade hundred yard game, 981 00:42:56,280 --> 00:42:58,759 Speaker 2: which would be the first time in franchise history, which 982 00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:01,759 Speaker 2: blows my mind, who else sticks out to you when 983 00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:04,600 Speaker 2: it comes to Gino and his ability. 984 00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:06,360 Speaker 3: To toss the ball down the field to make these plays. 985 00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:08,640 Speaker 4: Well, what I've noticed the past few weeks, it's it's 986 00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:11,399 Speaker 4: been someone new every week, and that's been been something fun. 987 00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:11,560 Speaker 7: You know. 988 00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:13,319 Speaker 4: The first week we saw it was Tyler Lockett. He 989 00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:15,560 Speaker 4: stepped up where like, you know, where's Tyler been? All 990 00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:17,520 Speaker 4: all training camp and all that, we haven't heard his name? 991 00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:19,440 Speaker 4: And then he goes, hey remember me, guys. So you know, 992 00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:22,680 Speaker 4: he has six catches or something against the Broncos. Then 993 00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:25,040 Speaker 4: you have js N and d K just going off 994 00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:27,520 Speaker 4: against Why am I blanking who? 995 00:43:27,560 --> 00:43:27,879 Speaker 5: They played? 996 00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:31,719 Speaker 4: The second Dolphins, the Dolphs no New England against the 997 00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:34,160 Speaker 4: Patriots and so and then those two go off, and 998 00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:36,480 Speaker 4: then this third game against the Dolphins. You know who 999 00:43:36,520 --> 00:43:39,520 Speaker 4: I really loved we saw step up was no a fan? Yeah, 1000 00:43:39,560 --> 00:43:41,640 Speaker 4: because we saw a few a couple of weeks ago 1001 00:43:41,719 --> 00:43:44,600 Speaker 4: against the Patriots. I don't know why I can't remember Patriots, 1002 00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:46,640 Speaker 4: but uh, you know, Noah had a couple of drops, 1003 00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:48,280 Speaker 4: you know why, Yeah. 1004 00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:51,399 Speaker 5: I know, I try. I try to forget about the Patriots. Hey, 1005 00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:53,280 Speaker 5: the bad memories back when I played. 1006 00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:55,960 Speaker 4: Uh, but Noah had a couple of drops that were 1007 00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:58,040 Speaker 4: there were there were big drops in that game, and 1008 00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:00,960 Speaker 4: he came back and secured everything and the whole wide 1009 00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:03,719 Speaker 4: receiving corps. You know, they had five drops a week 1010 00:44:03,719 --> 00:44:05,839 Speaker 4: ago against the Patriots. And when you can come back 1011 00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:09,319 Speaker 4: and no drops last week, it's pretty impressive to do that. 1012 00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:12,960 Speaker 4: And that just totally fulfills or just puts more confidence 1013 00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:13,920 Speaker 4: in Geno to trust you. 1014 00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:17,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, no offense had like two or three drops, and 1015 00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:21,279 Speaker 2: then last week he had six targets, six receptions. 1016 00:44:21,640 --> 00:44:22,239 Speaker 3: That is the. 1017 00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:25,600 Speaker 2: Definition of a pro being able to wash that negativity, 1018 00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:28,520 Speaker 2: show up and do your job and come through clutch. 1019 00:44:29,040 --> 00:44:31,879 Speaker 2: Last week, we saw Zach Sharbonnat rush the ball what 1020 00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:35,279 Speaker 2: for ninety one yards and two touchdowns, a career high 1021 00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:38,320 Speaker 2: for that young man. And it was because kin Walker 1022 00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:42,440 Speaker 2: wasn't available. It sounds like kN Walker might be available. 1023 00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:46,320 Speaker 2: But what does that those extra reps do for a 1024 00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:49,160 Speaker 2: guy like Zach Sharbonay knowing that kN Walker will be back, 1025 00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:51,759 Speaker 2: but if need be, you can hand the football off 1026 00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:52,160 Speaker 2: to him. 1027 00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:53,719 Speaker 3: He can make plays. Yeah. 1028 00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:57,040 Speaker 4: I loved how Sharboney ran. We hadn't seen that from him. 1029 00:44:57,080 --> 00:44:58,920 Speaker 4: I don't think he's really had that opportunity. You know, 1030 00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:01,560 Speaker 4: you send him in there every time Kenneth Walker is tired, 1031 00:45:01,719 --> 00:45:03,680 Speaker 4: and you know on a third down play he may 1032 00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:06,200 Speaker 4: get a few carries a game in that regard, and 1033 00:45:06,239 --> 00:45:08,800 Speaker 4: it's hard to as an athlete, you'll you'll know this bump. 1034 00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:11,480 Speaker 4: No excuses for him, right, I get it, it's your 1035 00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:13,279 Speaker 4: job all that, but it's it's tough to get in 1036 00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:15,480 Speaker 4: that zone right when you don't know exactly when you're 1037 00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:17,439 Speaker 4: getting in and when your name's going to be called, 1038 00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:19,439 Speaker 4: and you're sitting there on the sideline like am I going? 1039 00:45:19,480 --> 00:45:19,879 Speaker 5: Am I not? 1040 00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:22,320 Speaker 4: But what you saw is Charbonae get in a rhythm 1041 00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:25,359 Speaker 4: and you saw him just I mean, he he had 1042 00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:25,960 Speaker 4: his vision. 1043 00:45:26,120 --> 00:45:27,239 Speaker 5: That game was incredible. 1044 00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:29,480 Speaker 4: The offensive line was doing a great job opening some holes, 1045 00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:31,880 Speaker 4: but a couple plays, some of his cutback, some of 1046 00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:34,160 Speaker 4: his He had a one play where he kind of 1047 00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:36,640 Speaker 4: had a double double slide cut where he kind of 1048 00:45:36,640 --> 00:45:39,319 Speaker 4: went left left and and it hit the edge and uh, 1049 00:45:39,560 --> 00:45:42,200 Speaker 4: it just he showed an explosiveness that I hadn't really 1050 00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:44,200 Speaker 4: seen from him because he's known as that power guy. 1051 00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:46,000 Speaker 4: He's you know, he's a guy that's gonna run you over. Yeah, 1052 00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:47,560 Speaker 4: that's kind of what we think of him. But you 1053 00:45:47,560 --> 00:45:49,520 Speaker 4: saw him kind of hit the edge and hit some 1054 00:45:49,560 --> 00:45:52,480 Speaker 4: corners and outrun some people, which was fun to see 1055 00:45:52,480 --> 00:45:52,879 Speaker 4: from him. 1056 00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:55,360 Speaker 5: And it's it's it's nice to have that luxury. 1057 00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:57,600 Speaker 4: To know if Kenneth Walker, you know, goes down or 1058 00:45:57,640 --> 00:45:59,160 Speaker 4: needs that break, you have a guy like that who 1059 00:45:59,239 --> 00:45:59,759 Speaker 4: can fill in. 1060 00:46:00,160 --> 00:46:00,759 Speaker 5: There was a. 1061 00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:03,960 Speaker 2: Drive where the Seahawks went eleven plays ninety eight yards. 1062 00:46:04,040 --> 00:46:07,600 Speaker 2: Zach Sharbney had forty two rushing yards on that drive. 1063 00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:09,839 Speaker 3: That just shows the type of running back he is. 1064 00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:12,920 Speaker 2: He's the guy that needs the reps, find his groove, 1065 00:46:13,400 --> 00:46:15,399 Speaker 2: you know, get his back up off the wall, find 1066 00:46:15,440 --> 00:46:18,399 Speaker 2: the dance floor, start two stepping a little bit. That's 1067 00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:22,200 Speaker 2: who Zach Sharbiney is. So I'm still waiting for that. 1068 00:46:22,360 --> 00:46:25,040 Speaker 3: We talked about Noah fan of him being having a 1069 00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:29,320 Speaker 3: six target, six receptions, still waiting for an explosive game 1070 00:46:29,640 --> 00:46:30,520 Speaker 3: from a tight end. 1071 00:46:30,719 --> 00:46:33,600 Speaker 2: The last game I remember being explosive from a tight 1072 00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:35,680 Speaker 2: end came from Uncle will Disley. 1073 00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:37,880 Speaker 3: Will Disley love Uncle Will Disley. 1074 00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:39,719 Speaker 2: Who's he with the charges right now? I think he's 1075 00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:42,760 Speaker 2: with the charges right now? But there are tight ends 1076 00:46:42,960 --> 00:46:46,719 Speaker 2: on this roster that no disrespect to Will Disley are 1077 00:46:46,760 --> 00:46:50,480 Speaker 2: a lot more physically gifted than Will Disley. 1078 00:46:50,719 --> 00:46:52,399 Speaker 3: How do we get these tight ends going? 1079 00:46:52,640 --> 00:46:54,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, as a receiver, I say, no, don't worry that 1080 00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:57,319 Speaker 4: less tight ends. Get the receivers out there on the field, 1081 00:46:57,360 --> 00:46:59,600 Speaker 4: five light outs, you know, get the tight ends off 1082 00:46:59,640 --> 00:46:59,959 Speaker 4: the field. 1083 00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:00,560 Speaker 7: Uh. 1084 00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:03,880 Speaker 4: But yeah, when you have Farrell Brown, this was he. 1085 00:47:03,960 --> 00:47:06,960 Speaker 4: I thought he played fantastic. A. J. Barner got in 1086 00:47:06,960 --> 00:47:08,839 Speaker 4: the mix too, he got early, he got in the mix. 1087 00:47:09,719 --> 00:47:12,520 Speaker 4: But to have three guys that you can consist, you 1088 00:47:12,520 --> 00:47:14,200 Speaker 4: don't have to worry about you and then go in 1089 00:47:14,239 --> 00:47:17,440 Speaker 4: and block too, that's the biggest thing. I t The 1090 00:47:17,440 --> 00:47:20,160 Speaker 4: position of a tight end to me is like it's 1091 00:47:20,200 --> 00:47:22,920 Speaker 4: like the linebacker, right. I don't know how linebackers do it. 1092 00:47:22,920 --> 00:47:25,400 Speaker 4: I think it's crazy and I would get in there 1093 00:47:25,440 --> 00:47:27,719 Speaker 4: and be concussed every play. But tight ends have to 1094 00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:30,360 Speaker 4: as a receiver. We don't like to block, right, I 1095 00:47:30,360 --> 00:47:31,200 Speaker 4: mean we have to block. 1096 00:47:31,360 --> 00:47:31,800 Speaker 5: We don't like it. 1097 00:47:31,920 --> 00:47:34,239 Speaker 4: We get in maybe maybe maybe you work something out 1098 00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:35,680 Speaker 4: with a dB, like, hey, I put my hand on 1099 00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:37,719 Speaker 4: your chest. The ball's not here. We're like, you don't 1100 00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:40,239 Speaker 4: worry about it. But but tight ends are in there. 1101 00:47:40,320 --> 00:47:42,640 Speaker 4: I mean they're they're down and dirty. We're gonna see 1102 00:47:42,760 --> 00:47:45,680 Speaker 4: Noah Fan have to chip and block Aiden Hutchinson this 1103 00:47:45,719 --> 00:47:48,120 Speaker 4: week and that that's a huge job. That's a huge task. 1104 00:47:48,160 --> 00:47:50,239 Speaker 4: And then while they're blocking, then they got to go 1105 00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:51,880 Speaker 4: out and make big plays and you expect them to 1106 00:47:51,880 --> 00:47:54,360 Speaker 4: be explosive. So tight ends, to me, are are the 1107 00:47:54,520 --> 00:47:56,600 Speaker 4: one of the most important positions on the field and 1108 00:47:56,600 --> 00:47:59,160 Speaker 4: and it's really it's impressive to see what they can do. 1109 00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:01,960 Speaker 2: It's been fun watching this defense kind of do his 1110 00:48:02,040 --> 00:48:04,960 Speaker 2: thing as well. Going into the season, I felt like 1111 00:48:05,239 --> 00:48:08,120 Speaker 2: the safety position was gonna be on point, the corners 1112 00:48:08,120 --> 00:48:11,680 Speaker 2: were gonna be on point. I was skeptical about the linebackers, right. 1113 00:48:11,719 --> 00:48:14,280 Speaker 2: We just talked to Drake Thomas who got some reps 1114 00:48:14,280 --> 00:48:17,600 Speaker 2: and did this thing. But Jermebaker and Trrell Dots and 1115 00:48:17,600 --> 00:48:18,640 Speaker 2: I've really stepped up. 1116 00:48:18,719 --> 00:48:18,919 Speaker 7: Man. 1117 00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:22,560 Speaker 2: When you look at this defense, what position stands out 1118 00:48:22,600 --> 00:48:25,200 Speaker 2: to you is a D line, linebackers, third level? 1119 00:48:25,239 --> 00:48:25,919 Speaker 3: What do you think? 1120 00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:28,120 Speaker 5: Yeah, Well, as far as improvement from last year, it'd 1121 00:48:28,160 --> 00:48:30,000 Speaker 5: be the defensive line, There's no question from it. 1122 00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:35,040 Speaker 4: And I almost consider Derek Hall, boy and MafA almost 1123 00:48:35,040 --> 00:48:36,759 Speaker 4: part of the defensive line too. They're always on the 1124 00:48:36,880 --> 00:48:39,000 Speaker 4: edge of so all those guys kind of up front, 1125 00:48:39,200 --> 00:48:42,200 Speaker 4: those front four. I think that's been the biggest improvement 1126 00:48:42,280 --> 00:48:45,080 Speaker 4: so far. And now I have all the confidence in 1127 00:48:45,120 --> 00:48:46,760 Speaker 4: the world. And I think Derek Hall is a beast. 1128 00:48:46,800 --> 00:48:49,799 Speaker 4: I mean, he's been showing his improvement from last year 1129 00:48:49,800 --> 00:48:52,680 Speaker 4: to this year is like nothing I've seen it really. 1130 00:48:54,200 --> 00:48:56,759 Speaker 4: But this whole defense as a unit, I think that's 1131 00:48:56,800 --> 00:48:58,359 Speaker 4: what I think we need to talk about the most, 1132 00:48:58,440 --> 00:49:01,600 Speaker 4: is how it's not really one guy that's really been 1133 00:49:01,640 --> 00:49:04,120 Speaker 4: the superstar, but they just they kind of move as 1134 00:49:04,160 --> 00:49:06,279 Speaker 4: one unit. And that's what Coach McDonald talks about a lot. 1135 00:49:06,320 --> 00:49:08,200 Speaker 4: He wants him to play, you know, as eleven guys. 1136 00:49:08,200 --> 00:49:10,279 Speaker 4: Although you can throw all those cliches out, but you 1137 00:49:10,320 --> 00:49:12,719 Speaker 4: really watch this tape and you and I was. 1138 00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:13,400 Speaker 5: I was when I was. 1139 00:49:13,440 --> 00:49:16,440 Speaker 4: I was watching the Dolphin a game, and it's like, 1140 00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:19,200 Speaker 4: you feel like they're playing with thirteen or fourteen guys 1141 00:49:19,239 --> 00:49:23,440 Speaker 4: on the field. You know, like the guys are last year, 1142 00:49:23,480 --> 00:49:26,359 Speaker 4: I felt like you'd make a pass and one guy 1143 00:49:26,400 --> 00:49:27,879 Speaker 4: to make a tackle and if he broke that tackle, 1144 00:49:27,920 --> 00:49:29,840 Speaker 4: the guy who's running for another ten to fifteen yards. 1145 00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:31,560 Speaker 4: This year, it doesn't feel like that. It feels like 1146 00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:34,000 Speaker 4: there's thirteen fourteen guys on the field. You know, once 1147 00:49:34,040 --> 00:49:37,000 Speaker 4: a guy catches the pass, uh, there's three four guys 1148 00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:37,680 Speaker 4: wrapping him up. 1149 00:49:37,719 --> 00:49:38,319 Speaker 5: And you saw that. 1150 00:49:38,360 --> 00:49:40,160 Speaker 4: When you can keep a guy like Tyreek Hill or 1151 00:49:40,239 --> 00:49:42,560 Speaker 4: Jalen Wattle in front of you, I mean that's you're 1152 00:49:42,600 --> 00:49:43,359 Speaker 4: doing something right. 1153 00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:43,919 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1154 00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:47,799 Speaker 2: That that Dolphins team extremely explosive.

This is when we break down three plays, 1461 01:02:28,760 --> 01:02:31,760 Speaker 2: three significant plays in the game last week against the 1462 01:02:31,760 --> 01:02:35,520 Speaker 2: Miami Dolphins. This first play, Gino Smith finds DK Metcalf 1463 01:02:35,600 --> 01:02:37,040 Speaker 2: for a seventy one yard touchdown. 1464 01:02:37,280 --> 01:02:37,920 Speaker 3: Gino out of. 1465 01:02:37,880 --> 01:02:41,000 Speaker 9: A shotgun Macintosh in the game and now he swings 1466 01:02:41,040 --> 01:02:43,840 Speaker 9: out to the left side.

Smith trying 1475 01:03:16,800 --> 01:03:19,320 Speaker 2: to get rid of the football. Instead of taking a 1476 01:03:19,320 --> 01:03:22,640 Speaker 2: a a safety, he throws it to Zach Scharbon name 1477 01:03:23,000 --> 01:03:23,840 Speaker 2: they hold up. 1478 01:03:24,360 --> 01:03:25,280 Speaker 3: Dolphins kick three. 1479 01:03:25,360 --> 01:03:28,680 Speaker 2: The Seahaws get the football and waste no time going 1480 01:03:28,800 --> 01:03:32,520 Speaker 2: up top to DK Medcalf be weezy, what did you see? 1481 01:03:32,600 --> 01:03:32,920 Speaker 5: Well? 1482 01:03:33,240 --> 01:03:36,480 Speaker 4: You know the best part about this is this, this 1483 01:03:36,560 --> 01:03:38,520 Speaker 4: is chocked up in the playbook is take a shot. 1484 01:03:38,560 --> 01:03:39,120 Speaker 5: Play like this. 1485 01:03:39,440 --> 01:03:41,720 Speaker 4: From the very beginning, they are taking a shot. There's 1486 01:03:41,760 --> 01:03:44,440 Speaker 4: no there's no really really other option for Gino right now. 1487 01:03:44,480 --> 01:03:45,960 Speaker 4: This is the one where you're just trying to hit 1488 01:03:46,000 --> 01:03:47,560 Speaker 4: him quick, right You're trying to get back in the 1489 01:03:47,600 --> 01:03:49,680 Speaker 4: game or not back in the game, but you're just 1490 01:03:49,720 --> 01:03:52,480 Speaker 4: trying to really get the momentum back from the game 1491 01:03:52,520 --> 01:03:56,480 Speaker 4: after what happened the previous possession. They saw aggression in 1492 01:03:56,520 --> 01:03:58,720 Speaker 4: the safety by the Dolphins. That's what you can see DK. 1493 01:03:59,560 --> 01:04:00,439 Speaker 5: We kept week. 1494 01:04:00,560 --> 01:04:03,560 Speaker 4: What he's so good at is running those inside breaking routes. 1495 01:04:03,560 --> 01:04:05,680 Speaker 4: He's running posts and running digs. We see that all 1496 01:04:05,720 --> 01:04:08,040 Speaker 4: the time from DK, about a fifteen to twenty yard 1497 01:04:08,120 --> 01:04:11,840 Speaker 4: in route. And and DK is a big bodied receiver. 1498 01:04:11,960 --> 01:04:14,520 Speaker 4: He's perfect for Gino to hit over the middle with 1499 01:04:14,600 --> 01:04:17,600 Speaker 4: those kind of plays. And the Seahawks have shown that 1500 01:04:17,680 --> 01:04:20,280 Speaker 4: on tape over time, time in and time out. And 1501 01:04:20,320 --> 01:04:22,439 Speaker 4: in this this play, the Dolphins going to a two 1502 01:04:22,680 --> 01:04:25,880 Speaker 4: cover two and so the corners are gonna kind of 1503 01:04:26,040 --> 01:04:28,520 Speaker 4: ride the receiver but drop him if they sense an 1504 01:04:28,520 --> 01:04:33,480 Speaker 4: outside Another outside breaking route which came from JSN in 1505 01:04:33,520 --> 01:04:33,960 Speaker 4: the slot. 1506 01:04:34,200 --> 01:04:36,040 Speaker 5: He had a little option route it looked like to me, 1507 01:04:36,240 --> 01:04:36,520 Speaker 5: and he. 1508 01:04:36,520 --> 01:04:39,200 Speaker 4: Chose to break out and that brought the corner off 1509 01:04:39,200 --> 01:04:42,200 Speaker 4: of DK, and that leaves DK one on one with 1510 01:04:42,360 --> 01:04:45,640 Speaker 4: the too high safety. And when DK made that move 1511 01:04:45,680 --> 01:04:48,480 Speaker 4: in that safety, says ah, I watch film, I see 1512 01:04:48,560 --> 01:04:51,600 Speaker 4: DK run this route all the time. He's gonna run 1513 01:04:51,640 --> 01:04:54,040 Speaker 4: a dig route and I'm gonna jump in and I'm 1514 01:04:54,040 --> 01:04:57,000 Speaker 4: gonna get an interception, and DK said nope, real quick, 1515 01:04:57,280 --> 01:04:59,720 Speaker 4: gave him a little little little juke and at that 1516 01:04:59,720 --> 01:05:01,880 Speaker 4: time you can't you can't keep catch up with DK, 1517 01:05:02,000 --> 01:05:03,560 Speaker 4: and Gino was able to throw it over the top. 1518 01:05:03,720 --> 01:05:03,800 Speaker 7: No. 1519 01:05:03,840 --> 01:05:06,640 Speaker 2: I love about this. This play happened the same week. 1520 01:05:06,720 --> 01:05:09,800 Speaker 2: Mal kai person, I'm tired of seeing two high safeties. 1521 01:05:10,040 --> 01:05:13,120 Speaker 2: You can't throw the ball deep. I'm listen, listen, mal relax, 1522 01:05:13,400 --> 01:05:15,280 Speaker 2: all right, if you can influence the defense the way 1523 01:05:15,280 --> 01:05:18,280 Speaker 2: that number fourteen came, this is what's going to happen. 1524 01:05:18,560 --> 01:05:21,160 Speaker 2: What I like about this play B is the body 1525 01:05:21,240 --> 01:05:22,040 Speaker 2: language of DK. 1526 01:05:22,440 --> 01:05:24,040 Speaker 3: It's so easy as a receiver. 1527 01:05:24,080 --> 01:05:26,000 Speaker 2: If you know you're running a double move, I gotta 1528 01:05:26,040 --> 01:05:29,040 Speaker 2: sell this first one. You can be so excited about 1529 01:05:29,320 --> 01:05:32,040 Speaker 2: snapping it off and getting vertical that you're not gonna 1530 01:05:32,080 --> 01:05:34,600 Speaker 2: sell that first move the way that you should should. 1531 01:05:34,920 --> 01:05:36,400 Speaker 3: DK did a great job. 1532 01:05:36,720 --> 01:05:40,280 Speaker 2: Body language was own point, snapped it off and Gino 1533 01:05:40,400 --> 01:05:43,160 Speaker 2: stood there and threw a nice bomb. 1534 01:05:44,200 --> 01:05:46,000 Speaker 3: Who says you can't go deep against two I. 1535 01:05:46,000 --> 01:05:48,160 Speaker 4: Safety exactly, And that's one way to do it and 1536 01:05:48,200 --> 01:05:50,520 Speaker 4: to your point, bump. It's almost like when you're running 1537 01:05:50,520 --> 01:05:54,640 Speaker 4: a double move, you make them almost slightly slower, slightly lazier, 1538 01:05:54,760 --> 01:05:58,080 Speaker 4: so that dB thinks, uh huh, okay, no, I read this. 1539 01:05:58,080 --> 01:05:59,680 Speaker 4: This is a bad route by you. I'm jumping it 1540 01:05:59,680 --> 01:06:02,000 Speaker 4: in the boom. Hit him with the with the speedburst, 1541 01:06:02,040 --> 01:06:04,120 Speaker 4: and that's exactly what DK did for sure. 1542 01:06:04,320 --> 01:06:07,160 Speaker 3: Seventy one yards his third longest. When this went down, 1543 01:06:07,440 --> 01:06:09,760 Speaker 3: I thought to myself, this has to be Dka's the 1544 01:06:09,760 --> 01:06:13,120 Speaker 3: longest touchdown of his career. Nah, third longest of his career. 1545 01:06:14,120 --> 01:06:15,760 Speaker 5: And one thing we got to talk about. 1546 01:06:15,800 --> 01:06:17,480 Speaker 4: I know we receivers were losing it here with the 1547 01:06:17,520 --> 01:06:19,680 Speaker 4: offensive line, but the protection by the O line. 1548 01:06:19,720 --> 01:06:22,320 Speaker 5: This is a law of slow developing play. This takes 1549 01:06:22,320 --> 01:06:22,680 Speaker 5: some time. 1550 01:06:22,800 --> 01:06:25,120 Speaker 4: So you know, Gino Smith has to has to have 1551 01:06:25,440 --> 01:06:28,560 Speaker 4: you know what, five six sets almost a seven step 1552 01:06:28,600 --> 01:06:31,200 Speaker 4: dropped when he gathers. He takes time for double moves 1553 01:06:31,200 --> 01:06:33,720 Speaker 4: to develop. So the offensive line did a great job 1554 01:06:33,760 --> 01:06:34,440 Speaker 4: holding protection. 1555 01:06:34,560 --> 01:06:35,400 Speaker 5: He did get hit at the. 1556 01:06:35,480 --> 01:06:37,840 Speaker 4: End, but Charles Cross threw his guy in the end 1557 01:06:39,320 --> 01:06:42,120 Speaker 4: and the right side really they pancake their guy, so 1558 01:06:42,160 --> 01:06:43,680 Speaker 4: he had some good protection on this play. 1559 01:06:44,080 --> 01:06:48,320 Speaker 2: All right, This next play, Tyro Dowson sacked Skyler Thompson 1560 01:06:48,440 --> 01:06:49,240 Speaker 2: in the third. 1561 01:06:49,000 --> 01:06:53,600 Speaker 9: Quarter, third down in two oh get again going down 1562 01:06:54,880 --> 01:06:56,960 Speaker 9: Thompson and he is really. 1563 01:06:56,600 --> 01:06:59,480 Speaker 3: Slow to get up this time, as it. 1564 01:06:59,560 --> 01:07:02,760 Speaker 9: Was Tom te dot who came right up the gut 1565 01:07:03,280 --> 01:07:07,919 Speaker 9: and Skyler Thompson is walking off the field but he 1566 01:07:08,120 --> 01:07:08,640 Speaker 9: is not. 1567 01:07:08,840 --> 01:07:12,080 Speaker 2: Well all right, So before we break down the play, 1568 01:07:13,280 --> 01:07:17,880 Speaker 2: raves has to be late sixties, early seventies. He put 1569 01:07:17,960 --> 01:07:21,200 Speaker 2: me on t dot I'm in my late thirties. The 1570 01:07:21,240 --> 01:07:24,200 Speaker 2: fact that I'm getting slang from a man who is 1571 01:07:24,280 --> 01:07:27,560 Speaker 2: day there two times my age, I really appreciate it that. 1572 01:07:28,000 --> 01:07:29,600 Speaker 3: So now you can break down the play bide. 1573 01:07:30,120 --> 01:07:33,360 Speaker 4: Well, well, I know this is something that coach McDonald 1574 01:07:33,440 --> 01:07:38,440 Speaker 4: throughout the week stress to Tyrell Dotson. He says, if 1575 01:07:38,440 --> 01:07:40,600 Speaker 4: you see this formation, you're blitzing. And that's what we 1576 01:07:40,640 --> 01:07:43,200 Speaker 4: heard Tyrel Dotson talk about. So there was no question 1577 01:07:43,240 --> 01:07:46,160 Speaker 4: he saw this formation and he didn't hesitate and he 1578 01:07:46,200 --> 01:07:46,840 Speaker 4: went after it. 1579 01:07:46,880 --> 01:07:49,280 Speaker 5: And you love it when when a coach that. 1580 01:07:49,280 --> 01:07:51,280 Speaker 4: Just puts trust in your coach, right when when when 1581 01:07:51,280 --> 01:07:53,560 Speaker 4: you can when a coach tells you this is what's 1582 01:07:53,560 --> 01:07:54,920 Speaker 4: gonna happen, this is what you're gonna do and then 1583 01:07:54,960 --> 01:07:57,960 Speaker 4: it ends up working like this. So I mean Tyrrell 1584 01:07:58,000 --> 01:08:01,080 Speaker 4: Dotson read the play fake immediately and he went. But 1585 01:08:01,200 --> 01:08:03,320 Speaker 4: all aspects of this play were covered by the Seahawks. 1586 01:08:03,320 --> 01:08:05,840 Speaker 4: It was a really good job. They they they they 1587 01:08:06,360 --> 01:08:08,440 Speaker 4: jammed the middle. They have four big guys in there, 1588 01:08:08,920 --> 01:08:10,439 Speaker 4: like I can't even see the numbers of the guys, 1589 01:08:10,440 --> 01:08:12,240 Speaker 4: but they jammed the middle. They were not gonna let 1590 01:08:12,280 --> 01:08:14,760 Speaker 4: the Dolphins run up the middle and get this third 1591 01:08:14,800 --> 01:08:18,360 Speaker 4: down and short conversion. Boy Mafe got chopped by the 1592 01:08:18,400 --> 01:08:21,679 Speaker 4: full back, took that away. The Witherspoon took the flat away, 1593 01:08:22,400 --> 01:08:25,360 Speaker 4: and so really all options were taken. And Skyler Thompson 1594 01:08:25,360 --> 01:08:27,200 Speaker 4: has to get this out quick if it's gonna work. 1595 01:08:27,400 --> 01:08:30,280 Speaker 4: And when you when you don't get fooled by the playfake, 1596 01:08:30,360 --> 01:08:33,240 Speaker 4: like the Seahawks secondary didn't, He's got to hold it 1597 01:08:33,240 --> 01:08:34,880 Speaker 4: for that split second longer. 1598 01:08:34,920 --> 01:08:36,720 Speaker 5: And that's what allowed time for Tyrol dots and to 1599 01:08:36,760 --> 01:08:37,120 Speaker 5: get there. 1600 01:08:37,600 --> 01:08:40,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, and the the defensive line and the edge rushers 1601 01:08:41,000 --> 01:08:44,040 Speaker 2: just occupy everyone on the line of scrimmage and that 1602 01:08:44,160 --> 01:08:48,240 Speaker 2: allows t dot as Raves put me on uh to 1603 01:08:48,439 --> 01:08:51,439 Speaker 2: just rush free and get after the quarterback and do 1604 01:08:51,520 --> 01:08:53,920 Speaker 2: it efficiently because there are a lot of linebackers who 1605 01:08:53,920 --> 01:08:57,000 Speaker 2: would hit this guy, lay on them and you get 1606 01:08:57,040 --> 01:08:57,599 Speaker 2: the flag. 1607 01:08:57,840 --> 01:08:59,799 Speaker 3: The game is soft these days, Okay. 1608 01:09:00,200 --> 01:09:02,599 Speaker 2: Back in our day, you could hit somebody clothes line 1609 01:09:02,640 --> 01:09:04,000 Speaker 2: them and nobody cared. 1610 01:09:04,000 --> 01:09:06,320 Speaker 3: But it is what it is. 1611 01:09:07,240 --> 01:09:12,200 Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean it's it's been great, man, So 1612 01:09:12,760 --> 01:09:14,200 Speaker 2: we have to switch things up a little bit. 1613 01:09:14,240 --> 01:09:15,360 Speaker 3: So that's what we're gonna do on this show. 1614 01:09:15,400 --> 01:09:17,240 Speaker 2: Today, you guys, make sure you get out to Bellevue 1615 01:09:17,280 --> 01:09:18,400 Speaker 2: Collection Dining District. 1616 01:09:18,520 --> 01:09:20,639 Speaker 3: So many great restaurants choose from.

Okay, I think if 1672 01:11:55,439 --> 01:11:57,800 Speaker 4: Byron Murphy and Leonard Williams play, they can stop this 1673 01:11:57,800 --> 01:12:00,479 Speaker 4: this you know, two headed monster run game. The Lions 1674 01:12:00,520 --> 01:12:03,840 Speaker 4: haven't forced him to be one dimensional and if that's 1675 01:12:03,880 --> 01:12:06,760 Speaker 4: the case, under twenty and so I'm gonna stick with 1676 01:12:06,760 --> 01:12:07,559 Speaker 4: that because I'm gonna. 1677 01:12:07,360 --> 01:12:09,720 Speaker 3: Say, they say you can't, I can't. 1678 01:12:09,760 --> 01:12:12,600 Speaker 5: I can't go with that going to but then I 1679 01:12:12,600 --> 01:12:14,320 Speaker 5: saw your look and I said I better not go 1680 01:12:14,400 --> 01:12:16,000 Speaker 5: that that way. So I'm gonna go under. 1681 01:12:16,040 --> 01:12:18,840 Speaker 4: I'm gonna disagree with you bumping under disagreements. 1682 01:12:18,920 --> 01:12:21,559 Speaker 3: We like disagreements here on Hawk's Live. 1683 01:12:22,000 --> 01:12:26,120 Speaker 2: All right, next to wim DK, Metcalf will have his 1684 01:12:26,360 --> 01:12:28,719 Speaker 2: third consecutive one hundred yard game. 1685 01:12:29,040 --> 01:12:31,759 Speaker 3: It hasn't been done in franchise history. 1686 01:12:31,840 --> 01:12:35,360 Speaker 2: Are we going to see history on Monday Night Football? 1687 01:12:35,400 --> 01:12:36,519 Speaker 5: First off, that's crazy. 1688 01:12:36,600 --> 01:12:38,479 Speaker 4: This has never been done all the wide out. I 1689 01:12:38,479 --> 01:12:40,720 Speaker 4: mean even Tyler Lockett. I can't believe he hasn't done it. 1690 01:12:41,000 --> 01:12:43,960 Speaker 4: Doug Baldwin hasn't done it. Steve Largin hasn't done this. Yeah, 1691 01:12:44,040 --> 01:12:46,320 Speaker 4: so that's wild to me. But so I want to 1692 01:12:46,360 --> 01:12:48,360 Speaker 4: see history, So I'm gonna be rooting for this. So 1693 01:12:48,400 --> 01:12:50,240 Speaker 4: I'm gonna say, yes, he's gonna get his third one 1694 01:12:50,320 --> 01:12:51,080 Speaker 4: hundred yard game. 1695 01:12:51,479 --> 01:12:54,599 Speaker 5: Uh and in true DK fashion, one. 1696 01:12:54,680 --> 01:12:58,200 Speaker 4: Big explosive play that breaks the game open, fifty sixty yarder. 1697 01:12:58,479 --> 01:13:00,400 Speaker 2: All right, here's my thing. Man, I'll don't want to 1698 01:13:00,439 --> 01:13:02,679 Speaker 2: be a hater. Okay, I'm not a hater. I promise 1699 01:13:02,720 --> 01:13:06,200 Speaker 2: you I'm not a hater. But I think that every 1700 01:13:06,240 --> 01:13:09,640 Speaker 2: week we've seen a different receiver take the charge. 1701 01:13:09,920 --> 01:13:11,920 Speaker 3: So what are you gonna do with DK. You're gonna 1702 01:13:11,960 --> 01:13:14,280 Speaker 3: keep this safety over the tip. You're gonna bracket him. 1703 01:13:14,560 --> 01:13:17,760 Speaker 2: That defense isn't gonna go for that double move anymore. 1704 01:13:17,960 --> 01:13:19,320 Speaker 3: So that's gonna open. 1705 01:13:19,120 --> 01:13:22,080 Speaker 2: Up Tyler Lockett to have his first one hundred yard 1706 01:13:22,120 --> 01:13:25,799 Speaker 2: game of the season. We've seen Jason half one, DK 1707 01:13:25,960 --> 01:13:26,400 Speaker 2: had two. 1708 01:13:26,640 --> 01:13:28,439 Speaker 3: I'm not mad if DK goes for three. 1709 01:13:28,479 --> 01:13:32,800 Speaker 2: I love seeing history, but I'm gonna go with number sixteen. 1710 01:13:32,880 --> 01:13:36,040 Speaker 2: We interviewed him on bumping Stacey today. Actually the Huddle 1711 01:13:36,439 --> 01:13:40,880 Speaker 2: executive producer Nasa Troby hooked us up. I'm gonna say 1712 01:13:40,880 --> 01:13:43,559 Speaker 2: it's gonna be Tyler Lockett. Man, I'm going with Tyler Lockett. 1713 01:13:43,600 --> 01:13:45,080 Speaker 2: But I a'm mad if DK does it. I hope 1714 01:13:45,080 --> 01:13:47,200 Speaker 2: he doesn't, but I think the defense is gonna pay 1715 01:13:47,240 --> 01:13:49,439 Speaker 2: attention to him and lock some stuff. 1716 01:13:49,479 --> 01:13:50,720 Speaker 5: Dan, I'm excited about this one. 1717 01:13:50,720 --> 01:13:52,960 Speaker 4: To get your opinion on this, because I know you're 1718 01:13:52,960 --> 01:13:54,000 Speaker 4: passionate about this one. 1719 01:13:54,040 --> 01:13:56,840 Speaker 5: So here we go.

You gotta pick one. 1724 01:14:08,840 --> 01:14:09,559 Speaker 3: I gotta pick one. 1725 01:14:10,000 --> 01:14:14,000 Speaker 2: You're right, I'm gonna go with NCAA preseason power rankings 1726 01:14:14,080 --> 01:14:16,719 Speaker 2: because look, how are you raking these guys? 1727 01:14:16,880 --> 01:14:21,960 Speaker 3: One? You're picking five schools. You're saying Bama, Georgia, Oregon, 1728 01:14:22,280 --> 01:14:25,960 Speaker 3: Ohio State, Michigan are gonna be ranked every year. And 1729 01:14:26,080 --> 01:14:27,799 Speaker 3: granted they bring in the better. 1730 01:14:27,600 --> 01:14:30,439 Speaker 2: Recruits every single year, but you gotta play the game. 1731 01:14:31,000 --> 01:14:33,280 Speaker 2: All right, I'm gonna go on my wazoo tip right now. Okay, 1732 01:14:33,320 --> 01:14:34,920 Speaker 2: you guys ready for this my soapbox? 1733 01:14:34,920 --> 01:14:35,320 Speaker 6: All right? 1734 01:14:35,640 --> 01:14:39,519 Speaker 2: I saw a graph where Matier was not mentioned as 1735 01:14:39,560 --> 01:14:44,200 Speaker 2: a Heisman candidate. They had Alabama quarterback over him, Ohio 1736 01:14:44,360 --> 01:14:49,759 Speaker 2: stayed over him. Uh, University of Miami deserver deserves deserves, 1737 01:14:49,880 --> 01:14:52,680 Speaker 2: but everyone else they do not have the stats, and 1738 01:14:52,720 --> 01:14:58,240 Speaker 2: my guy John Matier has all right, So I'm done 1739 01:14:58,240 --> 01:15:02,680 Speaker 2: with that. It's it's for sure. NFL rankings are garbage too. 1740 01:15:02,720 --> 01:15:02,920 Speaker 3: Power. 1741 01:15:03,439 --> 01:15:05,960 Speaker 4: I'm actually I'm I'm gonna respectfully disagree because I actually 1742 01:15:06,000 --> 01:15:09,800 Speaker 4: think NCAA preseason rankings they have something to do with 1743 01:15:09,880 --> 01:15:12,639 Speaker 4: who makes the playoffs if you start higher, they're actually 1744 01:15:12,720 --> 01:15:15,439 Speaker 4: it's actually important to start higher in the rankings, so 1745 01:15:15,439 --> 01:15:18,559 Speaker 4: they actually mean something, right, It's the NFL power rankings 1746 01:15:18,720 --> 01:15:21,120 Speaker 4: mean nothing. The record does everything, but your record. If 1747 01:15:21,160 --> 01:15:23,639 Speaker 4: you win your division, make the playoffs. It's all about 1748 01:15:23,680 --> 01:15:25,680 Speaker 4: the records. So the power rankings mean nothing, But the 1749 01:15:25,720 --> 01:15:28,799 Speaker 4: preseason rankings actually mean something because the higher you start, 1750 01:15:29,080 --> 01:15:31,320 Speaker 4: the harder it is the fallout, and the more like 1751 01:15:31,360 --> 01:15:31,760 Speaker 4: you are to. 1752 01:15:31,680 --> 01:15:32,440 Speaker 3: Make the playoffs. 1753 01:15:32,560 --> 01:15:34,519 Speaker 2: The higher you start, the easier it is to get 1754 01:15:34,520 --> 01:15:36,880 Speaker 2: into college football points exactly. So there are something There 1755 01:15:36,920 --> 01:15:40,679 Speaker 2: are some teams that start up high that shouldn't be there, 1756 01:15:40,800 --> 01:15:42,920 Speaker 2: and then they lose two games and you're still in 1757 01:15:42,920 --> 01:15:45,120 Speaker 2: the top twenty five, and then you win one game 1758 01:15:45,200 --> 01:15:46,920 Speaker 2: late against a ranked team and now. 1759 01:15:46,800 --> 01:15:48,479 Speaker 3: You're still in it. I get it. 1760 01:15:48,520 --> 01:15:53,360 Speaker 2: I'm not mad at your opinion, but I'm saying I'm 1761 01:15:53,360 --> 01:15:55,040 Speaker 2: gonna break the rules and say. 1762 01:15:54,800 --> 01:15:58,439 Speaker 3: They're all garbage. They're all garbage, right, all right, we 1763 01:15:58,479 --> 01:15:59,320 Speaker 3: got another one. 1764 01:15:59,800 --> 01:16:04,520 Speaker 2: The Seahawks become an elite super Bowl caliber team. 1765 01:16:04,560 --> 01:16:10,160 Speaker 4: If oh man, yeah, yeah, this is jumping the gun 1766 01:16:10,200 --> 01:16:16,120 Speaker 4: a little bit. If they won the Lions will be 1767 01:16:16,120 --> 01:16:18,559 Speaker 4: a good test. If they can beat the Lions, Yes, 1768 01:16:19,000 --> 01:16:22,200 Speaker 4: because because the Lions were in the NFC Championship last year, 1769 01:16:22,200 --> 01:16:24,439 Speaker 4: so they are an elite team the NFCS. So if 1770 01:16:24,479 --> 01:16:26,439 Speaker 4: they can beat the Lions, then they will be in 1771 01:16:26,520 --> 01:16:29,240 Speaker 4: that talk to become, you know, an elite Super Bowl 1772 01:16:29,280 --> 01:16:32,120 Speaker 4: team or at least a n n at the n 1773 01:16:32,120 --> 01:16:35,720 Speaker 4: C double a time, NFC like championship caliber tea. 1774 01:16:35,800 --> 01:16:39,599 Speaker 3: Okay, I say, if they can sweep either. 1775 01:16:39,439 --> 01:16:43,120 Speaker 2: The Rams or the Niners in the in the division, 1776 01:16:43,439 --> 01:16:46,200 Speaker 2: you gotta sweep one of those teams. The Rams have 1777 01:16:46,240 --> 01:16:48,200 Speaker 2: had your number of the past few years. The Niners 1778 01:16:48,200 --> 01:16:50,759 Speaker 2: have had your number the past few years. The Niners 1779 01:16:51,080 --> 01:16:54,240 Speaker 2: for the last five or six years have been considered elite. 1780 01:16:54,560 --> 01:16:57,719 Speaker 2: They're banged up. Now we shall see Christian McCaffrey's headed 1781 01:16:57,760 --> 01:16:59,960 Speaker 2: to Germany to get his uh his calf looked at. 1782 01:17:00,120 --> 01:17:03,639 Speaker 2: We'll see what happens there. But you gotta sweep one 1783 01:17:03,640 --> 01:17:05,599 Speaker 2: of those teams. If they can sweep one of those 1784 01:17:05,600 --> 01:17:09,599 Speaker 2: teams when the games are supposed to win and stay healthy, 1785 01:17:10,439 --> 01:17:12,679 Speaker 2: it's you know balls, I mean, you know how football is. 1786 01:17:14,600 --> 01:17:16,679 Speaker 2: There's so many things that need to happen, but those 1787 01:17:16,720 --> 01:17:19,120 Speaker 2: are the things man, all right, all right, not too bad, 1788 01:17:19,520 --> 01:17:21,400 Speaker 2: not too bad.

This is going to be a 1801 01:17:46,240 --> 01:17:47,360 Speaker 3: tough one. Uh. 1802 01:17:47,400 --> 01:17:49,439 Speaker 2: You can never go into a game in the NFL 1803 01:17:49,960 --> 01:17:53,600 Speaker 2: like cocky, unless you are the Chiefs in December. 1804 01:17:53,880 --> 01:17:55,400 Speaker 3: Like no team should be cocky. 1805 01:17:55,400 --> 01:17:59,200 Speaker 2: I'm looking at this matchup and as most football games go, 1806 01:17:59,760 --> 01:18:01,719 Speaker 2: it's it's gonna come down to the guys in the box. 1807 01:18:02,000 --> 01:18:04,519 Speaker 2: How do the big boys perform. If they can do that, 1808 01:18:05,120 --> 01:18:08,320 Speaker 2: the big boys can't perform on offensive defense, There's a 1809 01:18:08,320 --> 01:18:11,120 Speaker 2: good chance the Hawks will win this game. But I 1810 01:18:11,120 --> 01:18:12,880 Speaker 2: think there's gonna be a moment in the game, b 1811 01:18:13,120 --> 01:18:15,240 Speaker 2: where you get popped in the mouth. You know, you've 1812 01:18:15,240 --> 01:18:17,240 Speaker 2: been in your first fight in elementary school. You get 1813 01:18:17,240 --> 01:18:18,680 Speaker 2: popped in the face. You're like, oh, I'm in a 1814 01:18:18,720 --> 01:18:22,280 Speaker 2: real fight, Like you're gonna have to respond. What do 1815 01:18:22,320 --> 01:18:23,080 Speaker 2: you think about this game? 1816 01:18:23,160 --> 01:18:25,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think you're correct with that that I think 1817 01:18:26,200 --> 01:18:28,360 Speaker 4: Bira Murphy and Leonard Williams playing is gonna be huge. 1818 01:18:28,600 --> 01:18:30,639 Speaker 4: I think without them it's gonna be very, very tough. 1819 01:18:31,960 --> 01:18:34,560 Speaker 4: But these are two good teams and it's gonna be 1820 01:18:34,600 --> 01:18:36,559 Speaker 4: all about it. You know how these games are. It's 1821 01:18:36,560 --> 01:18:38,920 Speaker 4: separated by two or three big plays, right, and that's it. 1822 01:18:38,960 --> 01:18:41,519 Speaker 4: That's the difference in these games. So it's to those 1823 01:18:41,640 --> 01:18:44,040 Speaker 4: two or three plays, to this ball bounce your way, 1824 01:18:44,200 --> 01:18:47,400 Speaker 4: and that's sometimes when two big time teams go up 1825 01:18:47,600 --> 01:18:48,320 Speaker 4: against each other. 1826 01:18:48,360 --> 01:18:50,559 Speaker 5: That's all it takes the whole rest of the game. 1827 01:18:50,720 --> 01:18:50,920 Speaker 3: You know. 1828 01:18:51,320 --> 01:18:53,280 Speaker 5: I always laugh at this because you could. 1829 01:18:53,120 --> 01:18:55,679 Speaker 4: Go a full game just to battle and it comes 1830 01:18:55,680 --> 01:18:57,960 Speaker 4: down to the last second field goal, right, and if 1831 01:18:57,960 --> 01:19:00,920 Speaker 4: the kicker makes this field goal and you win the game. 1832 01:19:01,160 --> 01:19:04,759 Speaker 4: Oh what a game we played? You know, special teams, offense, defense, 1833 01:19:04,800 --> 01:19:07,280 Speaker 4: we played so well. We won this game the kicker 1834 01:19:07,360 --> 01:19:11,400 Speaker 4: misses that field goal. We really we were terrible on defense, offense, 1835 01:19:11,439 --> 01:19:14,160 Speaker 4: struggle and only by one kick, which has nothing to 1836 01:19:14,240 --> 01:19:14,840 Speaker 4: do with any of that. 1837 01:19:15,040 --> 01:19:19,160 Speaker 3: So you know, so that's just by kickers, by the way, he. 1838 01:19:20,040 --> 01:19:22,280 Speaker 5: Kick come on, just because one of them is a 1839 01:19:22,320 --> 01:19:25,599 Speaker 5: better golfer than me. But that that's it. 1840 01:19:25,600 --> 01:19:28,840 Speaker 4: It's gonna be a hard fought game and the ball 1841 01:19:28,920 --> 01:19:30,840 Speaker 4: is gonna bounce one way or the other at some point. 1842 01:19:31,040 --> 01:19:33,799 Speaker 4: And this is this is my deep analyst analysis right 1843 01:19:33,880 --> 01:19:34,160 Speaker 4: like this. 1844 01:19:34,240 --> 01:19:35,599 Speaker 5: You know, this is what I do. Ball is gonna 1845 01:19:35,600 --> 01:19:36,200 Speaker 5: bounce one way. 1846 01:19:36,240 --> 01:19:39,080 Speaker 4: Someone's gonna score more points, and someone's gonna win somewhere. 1847 01:19:39,200 --> 01:19:40,960 Speaker 3: You know, you get hitting them off. You gotta respond 1848 01:19:41,040 --> 01:19:47,600 Speaker 3: to oh man, well you know what.
