Recapping Week 14: Seahawks at Texans · Hawk Talk

0:01
Speaker 1: You're listening to Hawk Talk with former Seahawks wide receiver
0:05
Speaker 1: Michael Bumpus at the ten yard line. Second to day.
0:08
Speaker 1: Three wide receivers now in motion as Bumpas left to right,
0:11
Speaker 1: Julius Jones, a single setback Matt Pumpfecks looking at the
0:14
Speaker 1: goal line, he throws it into the end zone. Touchdown.
0:17
Speaker 1: Say Hawks, it's Michael Bumpas with a diving catching the
0:21
Speaker 1: end zone. Our ten yard touchdown reception for Bumpus, and
0:25
Speaker 1: the kid out of Washington State has found himself a
0:29
Speaker 1: place on this team. Powered by Seahawks dot Com. Was
0:33
Speaker 1: when a Hawk Talk recap edition the Seahawks beat the
0:36
Speaker 1: Texans thirty three to thirteen in Houston and go two
0:39
Speaker 1: and over the past two weeks. First time they put
0:41
Speaker 1: together two wins back to back this year. We are excited.
0:44
Speaker 1: Let's bring in NASA Choby and figure out what had happened.
0:47
Speaker 1: See what happened at first work. What had happened was
0:52
Speaker 1: on Hawk Talk victory bump That's what happened. Two victory
0:56
Speaker 1: Mondays in a row for the Seattle Seahawks, beating the
0:58
Speaker 1: Texans thirty three to thirteen. Now on their first winning
1:01
Speaker 1: streak as he mentioned of this season, and it was
1:03
Speaker 1: a big day. On Sunday, Pete Carroll got its one
1:05
Speaker 1: hundred and fiftieth regular season victory. He's now the twenty
1:09
Speaker 1: second NFL coach Evercomberside feat so definitely in some rare company.
1:13
Speaker 1: But it wasn't all good from the start, Bump. I mean,
1:15
Speaker 1: the Seahawks came out kind of a slow start defensively,
1:18
Speaker 1: kind of nervous because we knew that there was issue
1:20
Speaker 1: with the quarterback between Davis Mills and Tyrod Taylor. They
1:23
Speaker 1: elected to go with Davis Mills, and he came out
1:26
Speaker 1: out to jump hot, takes him down on a seven
1:28
Speaker 1: play seventy five yard touchdown, ending with a Brevin Jordan
1:31
Speaker 1: catching the end zone, and Mills set a franchise record
1:35
Speaker 1: Bump starting the game completing his first fourteen passes. So
1:40
Speaker 1: not a great start, not what you're looking forward defensively,
1:43
Speaker 1: but from that moment on, the defense locked in. They
1:45
Speaker 1: did not leave up another touchdown the rest of the way.
1:47
Speaker 1: Seahawks would respond and honestly, offensively, Bump, that was their
1:51
Speaker 1: most complete game of the year. They were good from
1:53
Speaker 1: the start. They had a couple of field goal drives,
1:55
Speaker 1: big place to lock it or side Penny. So it
1:57
Speaker 1: was a good day offensively, Bump, what did you see
1:59
Speaker 1: from that offense? Good day offensively. They responded with that
2:03
Speaker 1: with a field goal from that I guess what, seven
2:06
Speaker 1: place seventy five yard drive that Houston jumped out within them.
2:09
Speaker 1: They really got the run game going early. Man, we
2:11
Speaker 1: saw something we have not seen all year. That was
2:13
Speaker 1: a Rashad pennyciting with him being healthy throughout the whole
2:17
Speaker 1: game and just getting this thing going. Man. He finished
2:19
Speaker 1: the day with a career one hundred and thirty seven yards,
2:21
Speaker 1: but it was a build up. It was like he
2:23
Speaker 1: saw a sixty eight yard run and he saw a
2:25
Speaker 1: fifteen yard run. The scores a touchdown on a thirty
2:27
Speaker 1: seven yard run. We saw Rashad Penny really getting too
2:30
Speaker 1: his groove. And then offensively, it's another efficient day for
2:34
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson. We'll talk about his stats a little bit later,
2:37
Speaker 1: but him when Tyler Lockett got going, you saw Gerald
2:39
Speaker 1: ever kind of shake off the turnovers from last week.
2:43
Speaker 1: Just offensively, they look good. Good on third downs for
2:45
Speaker 1: the first time or second time they year. They're over
2:47
Speaker 1: fifty percent when he comes to third down conversions. It
2:50
Speaker 1: felt right. Other than that first series, like you mentioned,
2:52
Speaker 1: everything else is fell into place. Yeah, no question about it.
2:55
Speaker 1: When you look at their drives chart, it was good. Man.
2:56
Speaker 1: They did a lot of good things going from the beginning.
3:00
Speaker 1: Nice field goal, touchdown, punt touchdown, hunt, field goal touchdown, touchdown.
3:06
Speaker 1: So I mean that's a lot of scoring drives that
3:07
Speaker 1: we're not typically haven't really seen this whole season, so
3:10
Speaker 1: it was great to see them just find a rhythm.
3:13
Speaker 1: And I don't understand it. Well again, we'll talk about
3:15
Speaker 1: all the playmakers, but Tyler Lockett just finds a way
3:18
Speaker 1: to get open. Yeah, everyone watched his film, everyone gets
3:21
Speaker 1: paid to watch film. But he still gets open on
3:23
Speaker 1: these deep, deep crosses. And one of the better things
3:27
Speaker 1: from the day is Russell Wilson Man, he's showing exactly
3:30
Speaker 1: what he's capable of doing. He's been there this whole time,
3:33
Speaker 1: back to his normal self. You know, the accuracy is
3:35
Speaker 1: slowly creeping back better and better, and we're seeing what
3:39
Speaker 1: we're used to seeing, those deep balls, those deep crosses,
3:41
Speaker 1: those routes that he throws better than anyone on this planet.
3:44
Speaker 1: Anyone who is alive today does not throw better deep ball.
3:47
Speaker 1: Than Russell Wilson, so great to see what he's doing there.
3:50
Speaker 1: And then up front, you know, Jake Curran steps in
3:53
Speaker 1: gets to start at right tackle. Got his feet wet
3:55
Speaker 1: last week against the forty nine ers, but he was
3:57
Speaker 1: playing guard kind of an emergency duty. He practices at tackles,
4:01
Speaker 1: so he's a little bit more comfortable and he did
4:02
Speaker 1: some good things. So it was good to see him
4:04
Speaker 1: out there. And I'm just really overall, I just feel
4:08
Speaker 1: really good about where this team is at. And a
4:09
Speaker 1: lot of questions, you know, around town on different sports
4:13
Speaker 1: stocks shows, have the Seahawks fair give this out? Have
4:16
Speaker 1: they turned the corner? And I think they have. Yes.
4:18
Speaker 1: You can come at me with, hey, well Texans are
4:21
Speaker 1: the worst in every single category, blah blah blah. Well,
4:24
Speaker 1: the Seahawks have played some other bad teams this year
4:26
Speaker 1: and didn't look as good as they did on Sunday.
4:28
Speaker 1: So while they of course still have things to improve
4:31
Speaker 1: and things that they can get better at, I think
4:32
Speaker 1: we're finally seeing where this team can go and they're
4:35
Speaker 1: ceiling and they're hitting the stretch run right when they
4:37
Speaker 1: need to. One of the key things you said were
4:39
Speaker 1: no sacks first time all year, Russell Wilson was not
4:42
Speaker 1: sacked with all the replacements that you mentioned on that
4:45
Speaker 1: defensive line, replacements and then just guys not being there consistently,
4:48
Speaker 1: so they're not really finding their group. Can't ignore the
4:51
Speaker 1: defense shut this team down the Texans in the second half,
4:53
Speaker 1: second time in two weeks that they've done that. Bobby
4:56
Speaker 1: Wagner led the charge with a bunch of tackles, Jordan
4:58
Speaker 1: Brooks behind him. So many play mixes talk about let's
5:01
Speaker 1: just get right into it. Playmakers, playmakers. The quarterback Russell
5:15
Speaker 1: Wilson seventeen to twenty eight for two hundred and sixty
5:18
Speaker 1: yards in two touchdowns you just talked about it, sacked
5:21
Speaker 1: zero times for the first time all season, finished with
5:24
Speaker 1: the rating of one hundred and fifteen point two in
5:26
Speaker 1: Russell Man, Like I said, he is just playing at
5:29
Speaker 1: a different level. I really like what we're seeing from him. Confidence,
5:33
Speaker 1: the swagger, just everything about how he's carrying himself. And
5:35
Speaker 1: there was a little stretch in there where he's about
5:38
Speaker 1: There was a stretch where he had several incomplete passes
5:40
Speaker 1: and things like that on a couple of punt drives.
5:42
Speaker 1: But this team is at its best when they're running
5:45
Speaker 1: the football and they're doing a mix of things with
5:46
Speaker 1: a play action and getting those guys involved deep um.
5:49
Speaker 1: DK had a couple of catches, a couple of nice
5:50
Speaker 1: runs after the catch. What I liked about Russell in
5:53
Speaker 1: DC's connection. It wasn't a lot, but that nice little
5:56
Speaker 1: slant we saw. But we need to see more of
5:58
Speaker 1: that because that's if they're gonna playoff. We gotta take
6:01
Speaker 1: that every time. So great to see Russell Wilson executing
6:03
Speaker 1: and playing at a high level. And he could have
6:06
Speaker 1: three touchdowns because him and DK missed on a slant
6:08
Speaker 1: down on the goal line. Again, Russell's getting better every week.
6:12
Speaker 1: He's gonna start to eliminating those small mistakes as well.
6:14
Speaker 1: Imagine where this team would go. Tyler locketted a playmaker
6:17
Speaker 1: five receptions, one hundred and forty two yards, one touchdown,
6:20
Speaker 1: recorded his fifteenth career game with a hundred yards. He's
6:23
Speaker 1: almost gone an old NFL season without a hundred yard
6:26
Speaker 1: games with his fifteenth. There he is. He went for
6:30
Speaker 1: hit a thousand yards for the third consecutive season. He's
6:32
Speaker 1: the only other player to do that is the great
6:34
Speaker 1: Steve Largen. Tyler lockein like he mentioned earlier, he's gonna
6:37
Speaker 1: run his deep crosses. He finds the sideline, big race
6:39
Speaker 1: that we should start calling him tiptoe the way he
6:42
Speaker 1: works a sideline. Just consistent, man, That's all I can
6:45
Speaker 1: say about him. Just consistent. One of the best receivers
6:48
Speaker 1: in the league. Doesn't get the love that he deserves.
6:50
Speaker 1: For sure. We've said this for a long time. He
6:52
Speaker 1: said this for years. I don't know how it's possible,
6:54
Speaker 1: but he's still underrated, underrated. He gets a little love
6:58
Speaker 1: here and there, you know what I'm saying. And he
7:00
Speaker 1: went to the Pro Bowl early in his career as
7:02
Speaker 1: a returner. People talk about it when they're playing the Seahawks.
7:04
Speaker 1: They know it's Lockett in DK. But man, he's first
7:09
Speaker 1: of all his career. His best season receiving is like
7:13
Speaker 1: a thousand and thirty seven yards. So he's gonna shatter
7:16
Speaker 1: his career numbers with five games left, especially at the
7:18
Speaker 1: rate he's going at. So somehow it's possible. But Tyler
7:21
Speaker 1: Lockett is still underrated. The next time I want to
7:24
Speaker 1: talk about Rashad Penny, man, I feel so good for
7:28
Speaker 1: this man just as a person, as a human being.
7:31
Speaker 1: Sixteen carries one hundred and thirty seven yards, two touchdowns.
7:34
Speaker 1: All of those are career highs averaged eight point six
7:36
Speaker 1: yards to carry. And this man has gone through so
7:40
Speaker 1: much in his young NFL career. It was great at
7:43
Speaker 1: San Diego State, was never hurt ever, was never hurt
7:46
Speaker 1: in high school. He gets to the league and every
7:49
Speaker 1: year it was something different. He broke his wrist, he hamstring, knee, aco,
7:54
Speaker 1: you name it. Eight he's had it. And for a
7:57
Speaker 1: young guy, young man to go through all that and
8:00
Speaker 1: still figure out a way to come out on the
8:01
Speaker 1: other end, you know what I'm saying, especially being younger,
8:04
Speaker 1: all the social media stuff. He talked about that during
8:07
Speaker 1: his postgame press conference. Just Howard made a decision to
8:10
Speaker 1: go away from all that negativity and stop looking at Twitter,
8:12
Speaker 1: stop looking at all the haters doing all this and that,
8:15
Speaker 1: and he's put that away and he's finally got back
8:18
Speaker 1: to being healthy. That's what that's why he was drafted
8:21
Speaker 1: was to see what we saw there. He Carroll talked
8:23
Speaker 1: about it this morning. Home run hitter, and that's what
8:25
Speaker 1: he brings to this offense. He's a guy. If he
8:27
Speaker 1: gets in the open field, good luck. Like he's about
8:29
Speaker 1: to be gone so just from a personal standpoint and
8:31
Speaker 1: watching his growth, being to see in the facility since
8:33
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen, just really happy, happy for my guy, ra
8:36
Speaker 1: Shot eight returns in college. You put on the film,
8:40
Speaker 1: you type in with Shot Penny, you're gonna see him
8:42
Speaker 1: at San Diegos State going bananas. So we knew we
8:45
Speaker 1: had this big play ability in him. Average eight point
8:47
Speaker 1: six yards per carried us great. His two touchdowns were
8:50
Speaker 1: not like on the goal line type touchdowns. Neither you
8:52
Speaker 1: had to get outside, picked up a couple of blocks
8:54
Speaker 1: from receivers, open up the stride and getting that end zone.
8:57
Speaker 1: Big ups with Shot Penny. Bobby Wagoner week he is
9:00
Speaker 1: on this list. Fifteen tackles, one tackles for a loss.
9:02
Speaker 1: He's the leading tackler in the NFL. He's always in
9:05
Speaker 1: the right spot. He's gonna fit you up for sure, tackler.
9:08
Speaker 1: There's not too many times I see guys get past
9:10
Speaker 1: Bobby Wagoner once he gets his paws on you. Just
9:12
Speaker 1: another day at the office for Wagoner. Fifteen tackles, nothing big,
9:15
Speaker 1: nothing big, double digit tackles all day long. Fifty four
9:19
Speaker 1: gonna be a first ballot Hall of Famer, showing what
9:20
Speaker 1: he can do there. Jordan Brooks, his linebacker mate there
9:23
Speaker 1: had ten tackles on Sunday, double digit tackles for the
9:26
Speaker 1: fifth straight game, so we got something going in the middle.
9:29
Speaker 1: I love to see them. We talked about every single
9:31
Speaker 1: week because every single week Jordan Brooks has been on
9:34
Speaker 1: here on the playmakers, making play so I love to
9:36
Speaker 1: see him double digit tackles, doing his thing and helping.
9:39
Speaker 1: There are some issues at the beginning of the game,
9:41
Speaker 1: kind of in the middle of field. Some of the
9:42
Speaker 1: things we saw early on, but they corrected at this
9:45
Speaker 1: game went on. So good to see those boys making plays.
9:48
Speaker 1: I was the big homie in the middle. Five tackles,
9:51
Speaker 1: a half sack cat to share with Rashime Green, one
9:53
Speaker 1: tackle for lost, one QB hit, and disruptive in the middle.
9:57
Speaker 1: He's a guy who's gonna take on double teams every
9:59
Speaker 1: now and then have a game like this, but most
10:01
Speaker 1: of the time all his victories are unseen. People don't
10:03
Speaker 1: really understand what he does in the middle. But it's
10:05
Speaker 1: nice to see somebody like Alwoods get some love, no
10:09
Speaker 1: question about it. Pete Carroll talked about Alwood's having the
10:11
Speaker 1: best season of his career and he's thirty four. People
10:15
Speaker 1: forget he didn't play football last year with a COVID pandemic.
10:18
Speaker 1: He decided to take last season off take care of
10:21
Speaker 1: his family, came back and his playing unbelievable football at
10:23
Speaker 1: thirty four years old. To love to see it there
10:26
Speaker 1: and another guy want to start some love suits. Ugo
10:27
Speaker 1: Amadi Ugo, you know that was correct me? If I'm wrong,
10:31
Speaker 1: I think that had to have been his best game
10:33
Speaker 1: this year. He felt active, jicks, tackles, one TfL, two
10:36
Speaker 1: passes defended, almost had a pick just went off his hands.
10:40
Speaker 1: So if UGO's making place. And the thing that I
10:43
Speaker 1: really love about this season is the DBS in general. Right,
10:46
Speaker 1: there's been a ton of injuries in that room between
10:49
Speaker 1: corners and safeties that the corners were just getting absolutely
10:53
Speaker 1: crushed at the beginning of this year. Everything was their fault.
10:56
Speaker 1: They're the worst. They can't play, they can't do this.
10:58
Speaker 1: So loved what I'm seeing out of you know Google
11:00
Speaker 1: as Nicol Sidney Jones obviously DJ read once he flipped
11:04
Speaker 1: the other side, he's been playing really good football. And
11:06
Speaker 1: then of course you had before he got hurt, Trey
11:10
Speaker 1: Brown was playing really good football too, So It's really
11:12
Speaker 1: good to see the secondary despite all the injuries they've had,
11:14
Speaker 1: despite losing Jamal playing well, Ryan Neil stepping up getting
11:17
Speaker 1: in there. So big up sets secondary. Yeah, Third, big
11:21
Speaker 1: ups to the secondary, and big ups to the wide
11:23
Speaker 1: receiver group was doing the wide receiver round up. Leading
11:26
Speaker 1: the way. Tyler Lockett five catches, one hundred forty two yards,
11:29
Speaker 1: one touchdown, a long fifty five DK metcalf. You mentioned
11:33
Speaker 1: it earlier. Not huge stats, but impact plays, you know
11:37
Speaker 1: what I mean, like picking up first downs and you
11:39
Speaker 1: felt his presence even though he only had four catches
11:41
Speaker 1: for forty three yards along with twenty two. Will Disley
11:45
Speaker 1: got things right, started off the game with a drop
11:47
Speaker 1: and then bounced back two for thirty eight. Penney Hard
11:50
Speaker 1: had one for sixteen. Gerald Ever scored a touchdown. He
11:52
Speaker 1: had two catches for fifteen yards one touchdown. Nick Bulore
11:55
Speaker 1: got into the MiGs one for four, Alex Collins one
11:57
Speaker 1: for one, with Shot Penny one for one. Over raw.
12:00
Speaker 1: This group has seventeen catches two hundred and sixty yards.
12:03
Speaker 1: Keep catching that rock, Russell keeps slaying it. I love
12:06
Speaker 1: that eight people are in this up box score looking
12:09
Speaker 1: at it. I love to see spreading the wealth. Of course,
12:11
Speaker 1: you want to see a little bit more targets, but
12:13
Speaker 1: in general, between Lockett and Medcalfs that's what you want
12:16
Speaker 1: to see. Seventeen targets between them. Obviously, Lockett has a
12:19
Speaker 1: huge day with the bulk of the receiving yards. Happy
12:22
Speaker 1: to see Gerald Everett Man getting that end zone. We
12:24
Speaker 1: know the week Gerald had against the forty nine ers,
12:27
Speaker 1: and that's not who he's been all year. He's had
12:29
Speaker 1: a really good season. He's probably the third best receiving
12:32
Speaker 1: threat on this team consistently. After having a rough stretch,
12:35
Speaker 1: it was good to see him go out there, have
12:36
Speaker 1: a couple of catches, getting the end zone, and boy,
12:38
Speaker 1: he was taking care of that football. He caught that
12:40
Speaker 1: ball two hands on it. He was not going to
12:43
Speaker 1: fumble again. So big ups to Gerald ever number eighty
12:45
Speaker 1: one making plays. Love it all right, let's go and
12:48
Speaker 1: watch him film. Rashott Penny seals the Seahawk victory with
12:51
Speaker 1: this forty seven yard TV run second down and seven
12:55
Speaker 1: run by Penny left side bridge, one tackle first self,
12:58
Speaker 1: he is gone ken five touchdown. Seahawks Rashad Penny breaks
13:07
Speaker 1: in at the line of scrimmage and takes off for
13:09
Speaker 1: forty seven yards. There's a hundred plus day for the Seahawks.
13:14
Speaker 1: One hundred thirty seven yards for just Rashad Penny. One
13:19
Speaker 1: a game. And if you keep doing that, if you
13:22
Speaker 1: keep pounding that line of scrimmage and the defense, one
13:25
Speaker 1: of these is gonna break and Rashad has head. Two
13:28
Speaker 1: of them break today. And love this run by Rashad Penny.
13:32
Speaker 1: What the Hawks did here was beautiful. Man. They bring in. Look, hey,
13:35
Speaker 1: we need three tight ends. Let's bring you guys over
13:36
Speaker 1: to the right side of the line. That forces the
13:39
Speaker 1: Texas to bring bodies over there, leaving the left side
13:41
Speaker 1: and more favorable numbers. That's where they start to run.
13:44
Speaker 1: It's nothing but a stretch zone. You're really trying to
13:46
Speaker 1: get this line to go east and west and get
13:49
Speaker 1: outside line means do a great job of getting bodies
13:51
Speaker 1: on body and double teams. But for the second touchdown
13:54
Speaker 1: of the game, the Eskirts comes in on a pushcrack
13:57
Speaker 1: to the safety and really springs the stand. Great patience
14:01
Speaker 1: by Rashad Penny and he hit it when it was
14:02
Speaker 1: time to go. Gotta love number one, the little guy
14:05
Speaker 1: I get in there and making the nice blocking on
14:06
Speaker 1: the safety, the ball snappy. See Dwayne Brown get kick
14:10
Speaker 1: out his guys boom, and you see Damian Lewis coming
14:12
Speaker 1: down the line, gets hat on the linebacker and Rashad
14:15
Speaker 1: big ups to him. Because Jake Curran's coming coming down
14:17
Speaker 1: the line, Rashad actually bumps into him, keeps his meat,
14:20
Speaker 1: gets off a guy jumps, gets through the mess and
14:22
Speaker 1: in the traffic, and then once he gets in the
14:24
Speaker 1: open field. Like I mentioned earlier, good luck Rashad Penny.
14:27
Speaker 1: And here's the thing about fast people. I says all
14:30
Speaker 1: the time, it looks effortless. When I'm watching him run,
14:33
Speaker 1: you can tell that's how it looks because the safety
14:35
Speaker 1: who has a savior angle, looks like he is running
14:38
Speaker 1: as hard as and he looks like I think it's
14:42
Speaker 1: king the backside corner. It looks like he's running fast
14:45
Speaker 1: and he is just getting dusted by Rashad to the
14:47
Speaker 1: end zone. So I love to see Rashad. As we mentioned,
14:49
Speaker 1: we talked about a lot. He's gone through a lot,
14:51
Speaker 1: and he's done some really good things for this football
14:53
Speaker 1: team this year. And bump if he can stay healthy,
14:56
Speaker 1: just like moving forward right. So it's almost been a
14:59
Speaker 1: couple of hurdles. So against forty nine ers, he has
15:02
Speaker 1: ten carriages, is a lot more active, gets through the
15:04
Speaker 1: game healthy check step one, comes back the next week,
15:07
Speaker 1: has a career high and carry sixteen one hundred and
15:09
Speaker 1: through seven yards, stays healthy throughout the ball game. Do
15:12
Speaker 1: you envision the Seahawks continue to ride this hot hand
15:16
Speaker 1: and you expect him to start and get a majority
15:18
Speaker 1: to carry the rest away. If he does not start
15:21
Speaker 1: this next game, I will be highly disappointed. I know
15:23
Speaker 1: this coaching staff is smarter than that. They said this
15:26
Speaker 1: game they were gonna go with the hot hand and
15:28
Speaker 1: Rashat Penny was a hot hand from the very first
15:30
Speaker 1: carriage that he had. Like you said, if you can
15:32
Speaker 1: stay healthy, this is a different dynamic because I feel
15:35
Speaker 1: like Alex Collins does a great job in the box
15:38
Speaker 1: being shifty and picking up like a hard six seven yards,
15:42
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, He's gonna make guys missed,
15:44
Speaker 1: whereas Rashat and Pennies is a true home run hit,
15:47
Speaker 1: Like if he gets to the second or third level,
15:48
Speaker 1: he has a chance to take this to the house
15:50
Speaker 1: because he has that speed. So yeah, it should be
15:53
Speaker 1: it should be Penny's show. I think he still makes
15:54
Speaker 1: an Alice Collins zone. You can't you can't forget about
15:56
Speaker 1: him to give Penny a rest. We know his history.
15:59
Speaker 1: But yeah, man, and all of this has led us
16:02
Speaker 1: to the greatest formation, and that is Nasachoby. Here comes
16:07
Speaker 1: the Seahawks offense onto the field and the Vikings defense
16:11
Speaker 1: crunching out there knowing that one meal down and the
16:16
Speaker 1: Seahawks are gonna wind the clock down and women this one.
16:19
Speaker 1: It's the victory formation on Hawk Talk. Two weeks in
16:22
Speaker 1: a row, the Seahawks getting in victory formation with a
16:25
Speaker 1: w one of the better games of the season, start
16:28
Speaker 1: to finish, at least offensively. Defense got it figured out.
16:30
Speaker 1: I loved how the offense was able to get it
16:32
Speaker 1: done on the ground in through the air. That's exactly
16:34
Speaker 1: what you want. They took care of business against it
16:37
Speaker 1: not a great football team, and that's exactly what you're
16:39
Speaker 1: supposed to do. I love that they ran the ball
16:41
Speaker 1: twenty nine times and they only threw at twenty eight.
16:44
Speaker 1: That means things are going well offensively. When they got
16:47
Speaker 1: established that running game and then it was able to
16:49
Speaker 1: open things up over the top, that's exactly the balance
16:52
Speaker 1: you talk about. Pete Ois sucks about. You want to
16:54
Speaker 1: have a lot of completions and a lot of runs.
16:56
Speaker 1: That means you're playing well offensively, So love to see
16:58
Speaker 1: what they're putting down out there. Offense did everything they
17:01
Speaker 1: were supposed to do. The defense started off rough and
17:03
Speaker 1: then bounce back second week in a row. They don't
17:05
Speaker 1: allow the opposition to score in the second half. These
17:09
Speaker 1: guys are hyped up, and Pete Carroll said, look, last week,
17:11
Speaker 1: we ain't done yet. They still got a lot of
17:13
Speaker 1: work to do. They still are in the playoff pitcher. Technically,
17:17
Speaker 1: if they can handle what they can handle, you never
17:19
Speaker 1: know what happens. But you mentioned offense, I mentioned defensive.
17:21
Speaker 1: Was nice to see, no question about it, and Pete
17:24
Speaker 1: is right it is again. I don't know how many
17:26
Speaker 1: times we've said this over the last month that even
17:28
Speaker 1: every time the Seahawks lost, you're like, whoa, they're technically
17:31
Speaker 1: not out of it. The seventh seeds here, a seventies here,
17:34
Speaker 1: and the fact that the seventh seed right now is
17:36
Speaker 1: the Washington football team who was six and seven. Seattle
17:38
Speaker 1: Seahawks are five and eight. They're one game behind that
17:41
Speaker 1: last spot. Obviously, they're like two games back of Washington
17:44
Speaker 1: because Washington has a tiebreaker there. But they're one game
17:47
Speaker 1: out of it, and a lot of things are gonna
17:48
Speaker 1: happen over the next couple of weeks. I really think
17:51
Speaker 1: if the Seahawks will take care of business against the Rams,
17:53
Speaker 1: it's gonna be incredibly challenging game on the road. If
17:56
Speaker 1: they can do that, not only will they prove that
17:58
Speaker 1: yes they are indeed back and fix, there will be
18:01
Speaker 1: a dangerous team heading into the stretch run. And if
18:04
Speaker 1: other teams don't take care of business, I could see
18:05
Speaker 1: the Seahawks actually finishing nine and eight and maybe somehow
18:09
Speaker 1: backdoor and their way into the playoffs. But obviously that
18:11
Speaker 1: means nothing if you don't get it done in La.
18:13
Speaker 1: So I'm really looking forward to next week's ball game.
18:16
Speaker 1: All Right, these guys gotta go one another, going down
18:18
Speaker 1: to Kelli they play the LA Rams. We know the
18:21
Speaker 1: Rams play Monday night against the Arizona Cardinals. That should
18:24
Speaker 1: be a good one. Hey, just win the week and
18:26
Speaker 1: you should be good man one. Thank you guys for
18:29
Speaker 1: listening to us. This is a Hawk Talk recapetition. The
18:31
Speaker 1: Seahawks beat the Texans thirty three to thirteen. They've won
18:34
Speaker 1: two games in the row for the first time this year.
18:37
Speaker 1: Let's make it three on Michael Bobbis He's now's to Chobe,
18:39
Speaker 1: Thanks for listening.
