- 0:26Speaker 2: that second year, Like you see a little bit of
- 0:28Speaker 2: the personality.

- 0:35Speaker 5: what what what what the team.
- 0:36Speaker 1: Is supposed to look like from a cam Rodberis' standpoint,
- 0:40Speaker 1: playing for each other, you.
- 0:41Speaker 4: Know, on a on a personal level.
- 0:43Speaker 3: And he really you.
- 0:44Speaker 5: Know, working with Mike Travay, he really bought into that
- 0:47Speaker 5: and and and wanted to work with that in the
- 0:49Speaker 5: off season and it's important to him and and he
- 0:52Speaker 5: knew it at the end of the season last year
- 0:54Speaker 5: He's like, I want to come.
- 0:55Speaker 1: Together and be more of a team.
- 0:57Speaker 3: And he did it.
- 1:00Speaker 2: That's the Executive of the Year, John Schneider celebrating his
- 1:03Speaker 2: Super Bowl championship Sunday with their own Jessmine McIntyre. They're
- 1:07Speaker 2: in the locker room admitting that he's old as stuff
- 1:13Speaker 2: in comparison to Michael McDonald, the head coach. What a marriage,
- 1:17Speaker 2: What a marriage made in heaven? Those two have turned
- 1:20Speaker 2: out to be. And now that they've been able to
- 1:22Speaker 2: say to each other, you know what, I'd rather you
- 1:25Speaker 2: not use my toothbrush, and you know what, you fart
- 1:29Speaker 2: in your sleep? Now that they've had that like honest
- 1:31Speaker 2: moment in their first six months together, when you know,
- 1:34Speaker 2: when they're that honeymoon period where you can either ignore
- 1:38Speaker 2: all of those things or just sort of pointed out,
- 1:41Speaker 2: you're not good at getting me linebackers. Here's what we're
- 1:44Speaker 2: gonna work on.
- 1:45Speaker 3: You know.
- 1:46Speaker 2: Once they got through that uncomfortable I don't like your
- 1:50Speaker 2: calik you know kind of moment, than man, it has
- 1:53Speaker 2: been the best relationship in the National Football League.
- 1:56Speaker 6: Yeah, well, I mean you can't he can't get much
- 1:58Speaker 6: better than the way in which it has been seamless.
- 2:01Speaker 6: I mean, they didn't know each other other than through
- 2:03Speaker 6: the interview process. At first, and it was it was different.
- 2:09Speaker 6: I would say, maybe it's not different. Maybe other young
- 2:11Speaker 6: coaches have came into the league and not put their
- 2:14Speaker 6: foot down but said, hey, some of the pieces you
- 2:16Speaker 6: gave me to cook with, I can't do it. But
- 2:18Speaker 6: so let's let's adjust this linebacker situation. Maybe there's younger
- 2:21Speaker 6: guys that have done it. It just being as close
- 2:23Speaker 6: to it as we are. It seemed like wow for
- 2:26Speaker 6: a young, first time head coach to make that change,
- 2:29Speaker 6: and it wasn't obviously one where he was like, I
- 2:31Speaker 6: think this will be better.
- 2:32Speaker 2: He was certain.
- 2:33Speaker 6: Yeah, because it was a quick It was a change
- 2:35Speaker 6: that was made really quick. And obviously you look, you
- 2:38Speaker 6: know short a little bit over a year later and
- 2:41Speaker 6: you're all of a sudden the champion.
- 2:42Speaker 2: You know, your friend Ryan, I don't like him.
- 2:44Speaker 4: Yeah, let me went into the top chef kitchen and
- 2:47Speaker 4: was like, oh, all these ingredients I got this.
- 2:49Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 2:50Speaker 2: Yeah, So I don't know, maybe just Ryan doesn't come
- 2:53Speaker 2: over to the house as much. Let's get Clint, it's Chuck,

- 4:57Speaker 3: Yeah, we caught up. It's good for her to come
- 4:59Speaker 3: down there and a great time. Yeah, very good.
- 5:02Speaker 2: Well, we've been talking about a lot of things already
- 5:06Speaker 2: this morning, and I want to get your thoughts on it.
- 5:09Speaker 2: I mean, this relationship between Schneider and Mike McDonald just
- 5:13Speaker 2: seems like a match made in heaven. And I'm wondering
- 5:16Speaker 2: if you wait out the four years of his contract
- 5:19Speaker 2: and he's got four years left, or do you reward
- 5:22Speaker 2: him for a championship and make him feel right now
- 5:25Speaker 2: like We don't ever want you to leave Seattle as
- 5:27Speaker 2: he do for a pay raise two years into his
- 5:30Speaker 2: top six year contract.
- 5:31Speaker 8: Greg, well, he's earned it. I don't know that he'll
- 5:35Speaker 8: get one. They do have other priorities other that is
- 5:39Speaker 8: a different pot of money and a different process than
- 5:42Speaker 8: player contracts, for sure. I don't think so yet. I mean,
- 5:49Speaker 8: I know McDonald would say, this is why you hired
- 5:51Speaker 8: me this. You hired me to beat McVeigh. You hired
- 5:54Speaker 8: me to beat Shanahan. You hired me to go to
- 5:56Speaker 8: the super Bowl and win it. And that was not
- 5:59Speaker 8: a our fetched idea for him. Remember, Mike McDonald took
- 6:04Speaker 8: over a team.
- 6:05Speaker 3: That was not Berift and a drift and a two
- 6:09Speaker 3: win program. He took over a pretty solid foundation of
- 6:14Speaker 3: a club that just needed to fix its defense at first,
- 6:18Speaker 3: and then he overhauld the offense in his way. But
- 6:21Speaker 3: he was starting from a higher floor than a lot
- 6:23Speaker 3: of first time rookie head coaches, not to mention, because
- 6:27Speaker 3: he had the experience in Baltimore and called his own defense.
- 6:31Speaker 3: He knew his system would work. He had two years
- 6:34Speaker 3: in Baltimore to see how he used Kyle Hamilton, for instance,
- 6:38Speaker 3: which is a lot more like he uses came in
- 6:41Speaker 3: worry here, but all the switching and changing it to
- 6:45Speaker 3: the snap and the one word commands that players used
- 6:48Speaker 3: to activate all of that, and the system was in place.
- 6:53Speaker 3: What he used he had proven in Baltimore to himself.
- 6:55Speaker 3: He had number one defense in Baltimore that this would
- 6:58Speaker 3: work in the league. So all that's to say is
- 7:02Speaker 3: that while it is a quick turnaround, he wasn't quite
- 7:06Speaker 3: turning it around if they weren't two and fifteen, So
- 7:12Speaker 3: he was starting from a higher floor. As I guess
- 7:14Speaker 3: what I'm saying. I'm not trying to take away from
- 7:17Speaker 3: what he has done and the culture he said and
- 7:20Speaker 3: togetherness he's brought. But he had pretty good confidence that
- 7:24Speaker 3: if he did this system in Seattle, it would work
- 7:28Speaker 3: and he could sell that to his players. All he
- 7:30Speaker 3: had to do was turn on the Baltimore Ravens tape
- 7:32Speaker 3: from the two years previous to him coming here, and
- 7:34Speaker 3: those players would look good girl, and that really helped
- 7:37Speaker 3: the buy in right away before they played a game.
- 7:40Speaker 6: Gee, I mean another coaching situation. Obviously we found out
- 7:45Speaker 6: or I think it was a secret that wasn't very
- 7:47Speaker 6: well kept about Clint Kubiak taking the Las Vegas job
- 7:50Speaker 6: that now is basically official. Do you expect them to
- 7:55Speaker 6: stay in house to try to keep some continuity when
- 7:58Speaker 6: it comes to replace or I mean, the downside of
- 8:03Speaker 6: megan it to the Super Bowl is a whole bunch
- 8:05Speaker 6: of other teams have already filled all of their spots
- 8:08Speaker 6: and whatnot. You're kind of at the at the mercy
- 8:10Speaker 6: of who's left over? What do you expect them to
- 8:12Speaker 6: do there?
- 8:14Speaker 3: I've been told that they are going to promote from within,
- 8:16Speaker 3: at least that's their first choice. To promote from within
- 8:19Speaker 3: for the play college job, take pizza, someone's on the
- 8:22Speaker 3: staff that has some play calling experience. Andrew to Jenoko
- 8:27Speaker 3: really messed well. Obviously the results speak for itself. With
- 8:31Speaker 3: quarterback sam Donold Jinoko the quarterbacks coach, he's thirty seven.
- 8:37Speaker 3: The key to everything to me is John Ben and
- 8:39Speaker 3: Stan and Mike McDonald intends to keep his guys Clint
- 8:46Speaker 3: Kubiak being here only for one season in Seattle, it
- 8:51Speaker 3: would be he would not engender himself to the Seahawks,
- 8:55Speaker 3: to John Schneider, to especially to Mike McDonald if here
- 8:59Speaker 3: he's only here for one year and then he takes
- 9:02Speaker 3: half the offensive staff with him to Las Vegas. That
- 9:05Speaker 3: would be a ransacking, and I don't think that's gonna happen.
- 9:09Speaker 3: The Seahawks are gonna make every effort to keep pretty
- 9:12Speaker 3: much everybody else that was coaching on this staff this year.
- 9:19Speaker 3: Adden Dirty was very impressive, I'm told in the interviews
- 9:22Speaker 3: they had in Atlanta and Chicago for Cleveland for the
- 9:25Speaker 3: head coaching jobs. He's not gonna obviously get when the
- 9:28Speaker 3: cycle this time next year, he could be gone too
- 9:32Speaker 3: as the protege for Mike McDonald running and helping run
- 9:35Speaker 3: his defense. But Jake pets is probably the one that
- 9:39Speaker 3: comes to mind because he has some Playcollner experiences. Perhaps
- 9:43Speaker 3: the front runner Jinoko would be continuity with Darnold, But
- 9:49Speaker 3: no matter how it shakes out, I really think they
- 9:51Speaker 3: need to keep offensive line coach John Benton to keep
- 9:54Speaker 3: what they've built in the clarity the guys have talked
- 9:58Speaker 3: about in the teaching on the office. That's the line
- 10:00Speaker 3: that's a big, big stay, And signs that I'm getting
- 10:04Speaker 3: early on is that they're going to make that happen.
- 10:06Speaker 2: Greg Bell is with us our Seahawks insider, joining us
- 10:08Speaker 2: here on this Tuesday, fresh off Super Bowl coverage, and
- 10:11Speaker 2: of course you can get all of Greg's the Super
- 10:14Speaker 2: Bowl coverage there at the Newstribune dot com. You can
- 10:16Speaker 2: follow him as well on x at g bel Seattle.
- 10:19Speaker 2: He joins us here this morning once again to talk
- 10:22Speaker 2: some Seahawks football. What how would you describe the priority
- 10:27Speaker 2: level of keeping Ken Walker versus all the suitors to
- 10:31Speaker 2: a guy whose name's never going to have been hotter
- 10:34Speaker 2: than it is right.
- 10:35Speaker 3: Now, well higher than it was a week ago. The
- 10:41Speaker 3: Zach Charbonnay injury situation changes this a little bit. Had
- 10:45Speaker 3: they had charbone and I'm not throughout the season, I mean,
- 10:50Speaker 3: let's put this so, there's a reason why they didn't
- 10:52Speaker 3: offer Kenneth Walker contract already. Zach Charboney was part of
- 10:56Speaker 3: that reason. Now, Charboney's contract ends after next year. Of course,
- 10:59Speaker 3: the draft a year after Walker in the second round
- 11:02Speaker 3: as well, But they had in the back of their
- 11:06Speaker 3: minds they could potentially give Charbonay the job if they
- 11:09Speaker 3: didn't want to resign at Walker's rate. Walker's rate has
- 11:13Speaker 3: skyrocketed in the last three weeks because of how he
- 11:16Speaker 3: seized his opportunity. You talk about seizing a chance, not
- 11:21Speaker 3: too much more. He could have done than be the
- 11:24Speaker 3: Super Bowl MVP and have a couple one hundred yard
- 11:27Speaker 3: games and three touchdowns in the playoff game equals Sean
- 11:32Speaker 3: Alexander's team record from twenty one years ago. It just
- 11:36Speaker 3: man perfect timing for him. For him personally, I know
- 11:41Speaker 3: he's got a new agent, David Can't Gan turin the
- 11:44Speaker 3: R Sports Group down in Florida just tired him right
- 11:46Speaker 3: before the NFC title game. The cold business of the
- 11:50Speaker 3: NFL is that one side of this is the Seahawks
- 11:54Speaker 3: had their chance. They could have resigned him all along.
- 11:58Speaker 3: And now there's six weeks until free agency begins, six
- 12:01Speaker 3: weeks until he can have open market bidding and see
- 12:04Speaker 3: what other teams would be offering him, six weeks to
- 12:07Speaker 3: actually maximize his contract value by other teams getting in
- 12:11Speaker 3: a bidding war with him. It would be from an
- 12:14Speaker 3: agent's perspective, it would be a wise business decision to
- 12:18Speaker 3: test that market at this point and tell your client, well,
- 12:21Speaker 3: they had their chance, they had your four years. From
- 12:24Speaker 3: the player's perspective, I asked Walker again yesterday in San
- 12:27Speaker 3: Francisco at the MVP press conference before he headed the
- 12:30Speaker 3: Mickey Mouse Land, and I asked him if he still
- 12:34Speaker 3: wants to stay here, and he said, yes, absolutely, that
- 12:36Speaker 3: says the first choice would be to re sign with
- 12:38Speaker 3: the Seahawks, but he is wondering why this hasn't even
- 12:42Speaker 3: been approached yet. When I talked to him in San
- 12:45Speaker 3: Jose last week, I asked them, again, have they even
- 12:48Speaker 3: come to you talking about a potential deal and what
- 12:51Speaker 3: it might look like and bringing up the subject at all?
- 12:53Speaker 3: And he said, not that I know of. And those
- 12:55Speaker 3: are the same words he gave me in August when
- 12:57Speaker 3: I asked that question. So nothing he's done this season,
- 13:02Speaker 3: in a thousand yard season, a super Bowl MVP, nothing
- 13:05Speaker 3: that he's done has moved that needle to him. So
- 13:10Speaker 3: I can see why he would test the market, even
- 13:12Speaker 3: if he says he wants to come back. The Seahawks
- 13:15Speaker 3: probably thought going into the season, because of injury history,
- 13:18Speaker 3: that he could maybe get they could give him a
- 13:20Speaker 3: one year deal at a few million above vetrimentimum. I
- 13:26Speaker 3: don't think there's any way they could do that now
- 13:28Speaker 3: because he would get multiple years and more money on
- 13:31Speaker 3: the open market. I would almost certainly believe his value
- 13:35Speaker 3: going into the playoffs was some people thought around eight
- 13:39Speaker 3: million dollars less a year it may have gone way
- 13:43Speaker 3: up from the last three weeks.
- 13:45Speaker 6: I mean a lot of times you'll see guys get
- 13:48Speaker 6: criticized for tiptoeing up to the line and then hoping
- 13:52Speaker 6: for a crease and shooting through there. In the Super Bowl,
- 13:54Speaker 6: it seemed to work. In the games leading up to it,
- 13:57Speaker 6: he was having more success with it. Hugh mentioned yesterday
- 14:00Speaker 6: something about how they moved him back maybe a half yard,
- 14:03Speaker 6: maybe even all the way up to a yard to
- 14:05Speaker 6: where he had more time essentially to kind of read
- 14:08Speaker 6: what was going on with his zone blocking, read what
- 14:11Speaker 6: was going on in front of him, and then find
- 14:12Speaker 6: the hole and hit it. Did you notice the same
- 14:15Speaker 6: thing and why would it TeV taken four years for
- 14:18Speaker 6: them to figure out, Hey, this is what fits his
- 14:20Speaker 6: running style better.
- 14:22Speaker 3: Now, that was opponent driven. And we talked last week
- 14:26Speaker 3: about how the Patriots' defensive tackles went wide, and they
- 14:32Speaker 3: really went wide in the Super Bowl. They were trying
- 14:34Speaker 3: to overcompensate for Seattle's outside zone, which is usually around
- 14:37Speaker 3: me tackles at least that's the point of attack. And
- 14:40Speaker 3: so the Patriots attacked that and they gave They wanted
- 14:46Speaker 3: Walker to hesitate a little bit to see how that
- 14:49Speaker 3: all traffic shook out. If the Patriot's going to flare
- 14:53Speaker 3: that way and we're trying to block that way, read
- 14:55Speaker 3: the blocks of where are the flaring's going. That's the
- 14:57Speaker 3: simplistic way to describe that. So so he looked more
- 15:00Speaker 3: like Levey on Bell in the Super Bowl. Bell was
- 15:03Speaker 3: famous for that in Pittsburgh. He would get a handoff
- 15:05Speaker 3: and he would just stand there motionless to wait to
- 15:09Speaker 3: see what the blocks were doing. And he was a
- 15:12Speaker 3: twelve hundred yard back doing that for a couple of years.
- 15:14Speaker 3: He was one of the best, maybe the best back
- 15:16Speaker 3: in the league until he fly flamed out. And that's
- 15:19Speaker 3: who he looked like on Sunday. But to me, it
- 15:23Speaker 3: wasn't four years Why didn't you run this way? It
- 15:26Speaker 3: was specific to the opponent. There were a ton of
- 15:29Speaker 3: nuances in that game. Polan I mentioned yesterday Devin Witherspoon
- 15:33Speaker 3: telling me in the locker room after the game about
- 15:35Speaker 3: how they had their blocking figured out, especially the backs
- 15:38Speaker 3: and how they slid and the sets and tells of
- 15:42Speaker 3: the offensive line. Same thing for the run game. On offense,
- 15:46Speaker 3: they waited a little longer to read the blocks a
- 15:49Speaker 3: little differently because of how New England was flaring out.
- 15:51Speaker 3: And that's the product of having two weeks, guys, between
- 15:55Speaker 3: the title game and the Super Bowl, that you can
- 15:58Speaker 3: find nuances and film breakdow. That's why coaches get paid,
- 16:02Speaker 3: that's why they study as much film as they study.
- 16:05Speaker 2: Our Seahawks inside of Greg bell is with us here
- 16:08Speaker 2: two days removed from the Super Bowl title the Seattle
- 16:12Speaker 2: Seahawks on one of the New England Patriots twenty nine
- 16:14Speaker 2: to thirteen. And of course the Super Bowl heroes always
- 16:18Speaker 2: rush off to Disneyland or disney World afterward, and they
- 16:22Speaker 2: actually do make appearances there. And maybe I'm reading too
- 16:26Speaker 2: much into this, Craig, but man, I really like seeing
- 16:30Speaker 2: Sam Darnold and Ken Walker on the children's Tea Cup
- 16:34Speaker 2: rides talking about God knows what. I just think there
- 16:38Speaker 2: are way too many twenty three to twenty nine year
- 16:41Speaker 2: olds who take themselves way too seriously, who have accomplished
- 16:44Speaker 2: way I can't imagine Aaron Rodgers ever going after a
- 16:47Speaker 2: super Bowl title to ride in the teacups with a friend.
- 16:51Speaker 2: Maybe I'm reading into it too much, but to me,
- 16:53Speaker 2: that's sort of symbolic of how well this team gets along.
- 16:57Speaker 2: That these two guys don't take themselves so seriously that
- 16:59Speaker 2: they can go on a kid's ride, probably on a
- 17:02Speaker 2: tour they're only doing because they have to.
- 17:06Speaker 3: Yeah, that made me last like one hundred and fifty
- 17:09Speaker 3: times yesterday when I saw that they were both of them
- 17:12Speaker 3: their arms over the edge of the teacup, and that
- 17:16Speaker 3: was pretty funny. I don't know how they got onto
- 17:18Speaker 3: the ride, because I thought there was a measuring stick
- 17:20Speaker 3: that kept you from a minimum height and a maximum
- 17:23Speaker 3: height on those rides that Disneyland. Yeah, that was And
- 17:29Speaker 3: what's funny is those of us who know Kenneth Walker,
- 17:32Speaker 3: he's about the opposite of a guy who's going to
- 17:34Speaker 3: do a publicity tour and be shown off and have
- 17:36Speaker 3: a parade for He don't want any part of that.
- 17:40Speaker 3: What I saw last week at the media availabilities before
- 17:43Speaker 3: the Super Bowl, He's just like, please, can I just
- 17:46Speaker 3: get this over with? I just don't want to talk anymore.
- 17:50Speaker 3: He's just a reserve to himself guy. And it's not
- 17:52Speaker 3: that he's mean or doesn't want to be approachable or
- 17:56Speaker 3: put out. He's a standoff guy. He could just do
- 17:59Speaker 3: without the attention. One of them. I haven't gotten to
- 18:02Speaker 3: write it yet, because I've written a story or five
- 18:05Speaker 3: hundred in the last two weeks. But one of the
- 18:09Speaker 3: coolest stories of all about Walker's night at the Super
- 18:12Speaker 3: Bowl was it was the first time his father had
- 18:14Speaker 3: ever seen him play in person. His dad is even
- 18:17Speaker 3: more reclusive and doesn't like crowds more than his son is.
- 18:22Speaker 3: And can you imagine as a father that the first
- 18:24Speaker 3: time you've ever watched your son in person is in
- 18:26Speaker 3: the Super Bowl. He ends up being the MVP. For
- 18:30Speaker 3: what the thrill that was? And there's all kinds of
- 18:35Speaker 3: stories that emerged like that. But when when Kenneth Walker
- 18:39Speaker 3: awoke on Sunday morning in the San Jose Marriot to
- 18:42Speaker 3: begin his Super Bowl day, he didn't say he didn't
- 18:47Speaker 3: think he'd be necessarily win the MVP, but he knew
- 18:51Speaker 3: the game plan. He knew how much Kubiak was going
- 18:54Speaker 3: to feed him. He knew that the plan was to
- 18:56Speaker 3: run the ball into a control field position to win
- 19:00Speaker 3: with their defense. And I talked to him about that
- 19:03Speaker 3: and yesterday at San Francisco, and he said that, he said, man,
- 19:06Speaker 3: once I saw the game plan, I knew I was
- 19:09Speaker 3: going to have opportunities. And even in the past game,
- 19:12Speaker 3: he said and Man one hundred and sixty one guards
- 19:15Speaker 3: from scrimmage.
- 19:16Speaker 2: Yeah all right, well, still a lot more to discuss,
- 19:21Speaker 2: So we're gonna bug you again tomorrow here on the
- 19:25Speaker 2: radio program. But great stuff today. Appreciate it very much, mister.
- 19:28Speaker 3: Bell all thank you. Are you going to be out
- 19:30Speaker 3: the parade tomorrow putting on some caps and getting out there.
- 19:33Speaker 2: We are going to be doing our show from down there,
- 19:36Speaker 2: and so probably I would assume Bucky and I are
- 19:41Speaker 2: going to catch it on the front side and maybe
- 19:43Speaker 2: not be there when people have been drinking for six
- 19:46Speaker 2: straight hours. Maybe not. I don't know what.
- 19:50Speaker 3: That's probably a good idea. A park yourself, Yeah, park
- 19:55Speaker 3: yourself right where it starts that I guess, the living field. Yeah,

- 22:06Speaker 2: hour comes to a close. If you don't know who
- 22:08Speaker 2: Football Lady is, brace yourself. Oh yeah, but we're going
- 22:12Speaker 2: to get started with a conversation here in this segment.
- 22:16Speaker 2: And I've tried to start this conversation and without fail,
- 22:20Speaker 2: everybody changes the variables on me, and I don't want
- 22:23Speaker 2: to change the variables. And for to get the conversation
- 22:27Speaker 2: between the three of us started the right way, I
- 22:29Speaker 2: really got to go to Ashley and I really got
- 22:32Speaker 2: to ask you to remember how you felt after the
- 22:35Speaker 2: Lob and Russell won the first one, the Super Bowl
- 22:39Speaker 2: one forty three to eight. This place was off the hook.
- 22:45Speaker 2: You know Blue Fridays or thing that everybody.
- 22:50Speaker 9: Participated in every single Friday.
- 22:52Speaker 2: You know, you had this young team with this potentially
- 22:56Speaker 2: historic defense, a controlled quarterback that was young and getting
- 23:01Speaker 2: better seemingly with every single game. And I want you,
- 23:05Speaker 2: I don't want you to think about what happened the
- 23:07Speaker 2: next year. I want you to think about how you
- 23:09Speaker 2: felt at that time, and now compare it to how
- 23:13Speaker 2: we feel thirteen years later about a new Seahawks team
- 23:18Speaker 2: built also by John Schneider, having won its first championship
- 23:23Speaker 2: and seemingly in this position. To man, they look like
- 23:29Speaker 2: they can do this again and again and again. And
- 23:31Speaker 2: I want you to compare the two feelings, if you can,
- 23:35Speaker 2: between how you felt coming off that Super Bowl championship
- 23:38Speaker 2: twenty thirteen with how you feel right now about the
- 23:41Speaker 2: twenty twenty six Seahawks and what the who had the
- 23:46Speaker 2: brighter future. The way you felt then and the way
- 23:48Speaker 2: that you feel right now.
- 23:50Speaker 4: Well, I will preface this with obviously, when the Seahawks
- 23:52Speaker 4: won the first one, I was just young and dumb,
- 23:55Speaker 4: but I do well, you're not young anymore, No, not young,
- 23:58Speaker 4: just still done.
- 24:00Speaker 2: I did.
- 24:01Speaker 9: I do remember though after they won just one.
- 24:05Speaker 4: I mean, obviously it was just an entirely different feeling
- 24:07Speaker 4: because it's your first championship, right, You've been in the
- 24:11Speaker 4: heartbreak of playing.
- 24:12Speaker 9: Pittsburgh and that whole thing.
- 24:13Speaker 4: So it was like here we go, Oh my gosh,
- 24:15Speaker 4: we can't believe this happened.
- 24:17Speaker 9: And it was so optim then.
- 24:19Speaker 4: It was just optimistic that going into the next season,
- 24:21Speaker 4: you're like, we're doing that again. This team is that good?
- 24:25Speaker 4: There was It was almost cocky, right, And I don't
- 24:30Speaker 4: just mean the team, I think the fans too. It
- 24:32Speaker 4: was like, oh, oh no.
- 24:33Speaker 2: There was any almost about it. Pretty cocky.
- 24:35Speaker 4: Yeah, but well I'm not generally a cocky person, so
- 24:38Speaker 4: for me it wasn't.
- 24:39Speaker 9: But it was like as close to cocky as I
- 24:41Speaker 9: could be.
- 24:42Speaker 2: Why did you wear your weird number one T shirt
- 24:44Speaker 2: to work today?
- 24:45Speaker 3: Then?
- 24:45Speaker 9: Well, I just wear that.
- 24:46Speaker 4: I wear that to remind myself every day about the
- 24:49Speaker 4: show that we're number one.
- 24:50Speaker 9: Oh, it's a show, it's just about us.
- 24:52Speaker 2: Well now I endorse it, yeah, of course.
- 24:55Speaker 4: And so I think it was just you didn't think
- 24:58Speaker 4: there was anything that was ever going to stand in
- 25:00Speaker 4: the way, and it was Pete balancing this whole team
- 25:04Speaker 4: of personalities and all of these things, and you were
- 25:07Speaker 4: just so you know, every Blue Friday, as you said,
- 25:09Speaker 4: we were all celebrating, and every Friday was the day
- 25:11Speaker 4: before the day before, because Pete Carroll said it once
- 25:13Speaker 4: and we all celebrated the day before the day before.
- 25:16Speaker 9: It was just you know, everywhere you went.
- 25:20Speaker 4: And now now with this team, I don't want to
- 25:23Speaker 4: say that people are it's like, oh, well we've won one,
- 25:26Speaker 4: so okay, now we did it again.
- 25:28Speaker 9: You know, it wasn't that big of a deal. It
- 25:30Speaker 9: was still a really damn big deal.
- 25:32Speaker 4: And and I do think leading up to it, you
- 25:35Speaker 4: still get everyone wearing their Seahawks stuff. Everyone's excited, everyone's excited.
- 25:38Speaker 4: But I do think there's a tempered expectation because of
- 25:42Speaker 4: the crushing blow we had in that following year. I
- 25:45Speaker 4: don't think anyone and you do realize, you do realize
- 25:48Speaker 4: how hard it is to go back to back. So
- 25:51Speaker 4: I mean you think about how lucky we were with
- 25:53Speaker 4: injuries this year, and I mean compared to other teams.
- 25:57Speaker 4: I mean, we really we were pretty lucky.
- 26:00Speaker 2: Well, look, I like to like, I think that's a
- 26:02Speaker 2: skill too. I think the organization gets credit for that.
- 26:05Speaker 2: But yeah, that's some luck in vall, there's no question
- 26:07Speaker 2: about that. I think that's a really good tempered take
- 26:11Speaker 2: and it's probably because you have been through it once. Before,
- 26:15Speaker 2: And I'm not going to put the cart before the
- 26:17Speaker 2: horse again, right like that.
- 26:19Speaker 4: Just take this one and enjoy this one, and then
- 26:21Speaker 4: whatever happens happened.
- 26:22Speaker 2: Yeah, but I will say taking away your life experience
- 26:26Speaker 2: with it. I'm you know, I think that you you
- 26:30Speaker 2: should be excited about. This might just be the beginning
- 26:34Speaker 2: of something. And I get why everybody is reluctant to
- 26:37Speaker 2: go there. But I do believe that maybe your cockiness
- 26:43Speaker 2: was a reflection of the team you were rooting for, yes, because.
- 26:47Speaker 9: They made us think it was us against everybody.
- 26:49Speaker 2: Yeah, you are all brash and cocky at that time,
- 26:53Speaker 2: and and it was a The team was brash and cocky,
- 26:56Speaker 2: and it was part of what made them special, no
- 26:59Speaker 2: question about. It's certainly what made Richard Sherman as good
- 27:03Speaker 2: as what Richard Sherman became. This team, though, Bucky, they
- 27:06Speaker 2: don't have that. I mean, Sam Darnold and Ken Walker
- 27:10Speaker 2: at Disneyland yesterday, not trying to stay away from the people.
- 27:13Speaker 2: They're in a tea cup ride together and probably talking
- 27:16Speaker 2: about free agency and what are we gonna do to
- 27:19Speaker 2: be able to keep you next year?
- 27:20Speaker 9: I don't know what they're gonna get.
- 27:22Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe they're just talking about that. How many cheros
- 27:24Speaker 2: do you think you can eat? Ken? You know, I
- 27:26Speaker 2: think I could eat like fourteen. Let's have a competition,
- 27:28Speaker 2: then we'll come back on the tea cups. I just
- 27:31Speaker 2: they don't have that. And maybe the fan base is
- 27:34Speaker 2: keeping everything in perspective because it's again reflection of the
- 27:38Speaker 2: team and keeping you know, there's there's certainly a lot
- 27:42Speaker 2: more of this one day at a time kind of
- 27:46Speaker 2: feel that you get with the twenty twenty six Seahawks
- 27:49Speaker 2: versus the twenty thirteen Seahawks, who you felt after that championship.
- 27:53Speaker 2: We're going to like, Okay, now we'll take Peru, you know.
- 27:57Speaker 2: Now we're going to storm the We're not just happy
- 28:01Speaker 2: with being champions of America. We're going to take on
- 28:04Speaker 2: Europe now, you know, the like the Siege was on
- 28:08Speaker 2: Alexander the Great is leading the charge, right, And so
- 28:12Speaker 2: certainly there's a different mentality that goes with this twenty
- 28:14Speaker 2: twenty six group, and maybe the fans tempered expectations are
- 28:19Speaker 2: a reflection of that as well.
- 28:21Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean I think that the tempered expectations are
- 28:24Speaker 6: exactly because of what Ashley said, because of what happened
- 28:27Speaker 6: the following year. But if you're just comparing twenty thirteen,
- 28:30Speaker 6: they just won a super Bowl, so you're you know,
- 28:32Speaker 6: you're you're days after winning a super Bowl versus now,
- 28:37Speaker 6: you know, a decade plus later and you just want
- 28:39Speaker 6: a super Bowl. How do you compare? How do you
- 28:42Speaker 6: think about the two teams? I think you're nailing it.
- 28:44Speaker 6: I think he's both right on.
- 28:46Speaker 2: I don't.
- 28:46Speaker 6: I don't get the same. Now you're gonna have some guys,
- 28:49Speaker 6: and you want to have some I mean, I don't
- 28:51Speaker 6: like cocky. I most certainly don't like arrogant. Richard Sherman
- 28:55Speaker 6: check box one, checkbox two. Cocky and arrogant. Now you
- 28:58Speaker 6: play that way that you have to play that way,
- 29:02Speaker 6: even though I don't like it. You step in the
- 29:03Speaker 6: batter's box. And what I was running through my head
- 29:06Speaker 6: was cocky and arrogant thoughts. You ain't got a chance, Motherflower,
- 29:10Speaker 6: bring it in here and I'm hitting this thing a mile.
- 29:12Speaker 2: Yeah, sorry, I said, Flower.
- 29:14Speaker 9: No, I know you made me nervous, but then I laughed, Yeah.
- 29:17Speaker 2: That's fine, just a little peddle. You're fine with that.
- 29:20Speaker 6: I think that you have to play you were cocky
- 29:23Speaker 6: about Yeah, yeah, I think that you have to be
- 29:26Speaker 6: uh she pitdled her, I said, mother flower cocky.
- 29:30Speaker 10: Yeah, she pled was in a confident was a cocky
- 29:32Speaker 10: pitdle Yeah, you gotta have that. So you're I think
- 29:41Speaker 10: that you're going to have that, right. I mean I
- 29:43Speaker 10: watched Devin Witherspoon, great, great player. He most certainly plays
- 29:48Speaker 10: with that edge, and you have to have some guys
- 29:50Speaker 10: that play with that. I think that when it gets
- 29:52Speaker 10: down to, okay, your most important players, the difference in
- 29:56Speaker 10: what we could already see Russell Wilson starting to turned.
- 30:00Speaker 2: Towards we already knew there was. Yeah, maybe there was.
- 30:05Speaker 2: There was a divide. Well, there was a long before
- 30:08Speaker 2: the one yard As Charles Davis pointed out to us,
- 30:11Speaker 2: the one yard line thing just accentuated it, just like
- 30:14Speaker 2: that was like final straw moment. Four players. They already
- 30:18Speaker 2: there was a divide in that locker room, and they
- 30:21Speaker 2: kept it under wraps and people really didn't want to
- 30:23Speaker 2: think about it back in twenty thirteen into twenty fourteen
- 30:26Speaker 2: because everything was just wonderful. Yeah, but it was there.
- 30:29Speaker 6: Well yeah, yeah, well I think that, and it starts
- 30:31Speaker 6: with it was like the face of the team was
- 30:35Speaker 6: the defense Richard Sherman was the mouth. Earl Thomas was
- 30:40Speaker 6: the heart. Cam Chanceller was the thunder that brought down.
- 30:44Speaker 6: Bobby Wagner was the brains in the center of the operation.
- 30:46Speaker 6: kJ Wrait was his robin to the batman. The whole
- 30:49Speaker 6: defensive line is like, yeah, but we're the big dogs
- 30:52Speaker 6: around here. We make everything go. And yet Russell Wilson,
- 30:55Speaker 6: because he's a quarterback, the dorky Russell Wilson was the
- 30:58Speaker 6: guy that was had the biggest name on the outside
- 31:01Speaker 6: of the stadium, and I think that rubbed people the
- 31:03Speaker 6: wrong way inside that locker room.
- 31:04Speaker 2: And yet they don't care.
- 31:06Speaker 6: They overlook it when he's escaping stuff and making offscript
- 31:08Speaker 6: plays and they're winning games and Super Bowls. But yeah,
- 31:11Speaker 6: the final straw was that that that play at the
- 31:14Speaker 6: one yard line. So when you compare that to where
- 31:17Speaker 6: it is right now, I think you take is there
- 31:19Speaker 6: anybody that has a jealousy factor towards Sam Darnold about
- 31:22Speaker 6: he gets too much? No, they love the love him.
- 31:25Speaker 6: They love the fact that he's trials.
- 31:27Speaker 2: Yes, and I think he's bought a podium and he's like, hey,
- 31:31Speaker 2: we did our job offensively. And he went position group
- 31:33Speaker 2: by position group, and he's like, but let's not kid ourselves.
- 31:36Speaker 2: Our defense is what won us the game tonight.
- 31:39Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I think that he I think he epitomizes
- 31:43Speaker 6: the leadership that you need. And leadership doesn't necessarily mean
- 31:47Speaker 6: look at me, I'm the leader. Sometimes it's like, go
- 31:50Speaker 6: talk to them. They're the ones that did it, you know.
- 31:52Speaker 6: I mean that's sometimes is giving credit where credit is
- 31:55Speaker 6: deserved versus people that want to give it to you
- 31:58Speaker 6: just because you're playing the more important position. So I mean,
- 32:02Speaker 6: and then you just talk about the leader. I think
- 32:04Speaker 6: that Pete Carroll's leadership style it works, but I think
- 32:07Speaker 6: it has a short shelf life. I think that eventually
- 32:09Speaker 6: you let everybody hey be you, go talk big, go
- 32:12Speaker 6: do what you want to do, play on the edge.
- 32:14Speaker 6: I think that runs its life, it runs its time,
- 32:17Speaker 6: and then all of a sudden runs out of it.
- 32:19Speaker 6: I think Mike McDonald has a very much so I
- 32:21Speaker 6: get what you guys are fighting for, and I'm right
- 32:23Speaker 6: there for it. You go be you, but make sure
- 32:26Speaker 6: that it's within the realms of what we're doing.
- 32:27Speaker 2: The Seahawks, well, I'll just say this, and I know
- 32:30Speaker 2: that people are a little reserved about this. I just
- 32:33Speaker 2: went on Kansaity Radio yesterday and they won three titles
- 32:35Speaker 2: in the last ten years. And I was asked a
- 32:38Speaker 2: question about, so do you think this is repeatable? And
- 32:41Speaker 2: there was an air with my very good friends or
- 32:43Speaker 2: in petro of are you the latest chumps that think
- 32:46Speaker 2: that you can do what we've done here? And there
- 32:49Speaker 2: was an air of that, and and I just I
- 32:52Speaker 2: did make it clear. Look, it's really hard to win one,
- 32:54Speaker 2: much less go back to back. Seahawks are Seahawks organization
- 32:58Speaker 2: has proof positive of that. But this team, the way
- 33:02Speaker 2: that it's set up, I mean, you just want a championship.
- 33:05Speaker 2: You've got the fourth most cap space in the National
- 33:09Speaker 2: Football League right now. You have an executive of the
- 33:13Speaker 2: Year who is on fire right now. You've got a
- 33:16Speaker 2: young head coach who's clearly the best defensive mind in
- 33:19Speaker 2: the game right now who might just be getting started.
- 33:23Speaker 2: You've got a clubhouse that is functional and that is working.
- 33:27Speaker 2: I mean, you certainly are set I think you're set
- 33:30Speaker 2: up better here in Seattle right now for that dynasty
- 33:34Speaker 2: that you felt you missed out on. Doesn't mean you're
- 33:36Speaker 2: gonna get there, doesn't mean you're not going to crash
- 33:38Speaker 2: into disappointment again. But if you can take a reserved
- 33:41Speaker 2: approach to it and yet no inside your heart and
- 33:45Speaker 2: your brain, we're even better set up now than we
- 33:48Speaker 2: were thirteen years ago. I mean, this could be we
- 33:51Speaker 2: just had a special season. This could be a special
- 33:55Speaker 2: decade for this organization going forward. And the best news
- 33:58Speaker 2: of all is that this happens every thirteen years. It's
- 34:01Speaker 2: very clear. So twenty thirty nine, I can't wait to
- 34:04Speaker 2: see this dam great, It's gonna be awesome, all right,
- 34:07Speaker 2: coming up next football Lady on kJ R Jade stair
- 34:24Speaker 2: doorl join us at eight o'clock. But if you are
- 34:27Speaker 2: coming off that Super Bowl championship and you're one of
- 34:30Speaker 2: those like I gotta have everything that commemorates a T
- 34:34Speaker 2: shirts underwear sucks. Boy, do we have the guests for you,
- 34:39Speaker 2: because we got a cool product that will commemorate this
- 34:44Speaker 2: Seahawks season, magical Seahawks season, and it was created by
- 34:48Speaker 2: our next guest from Nico Sports, nick I did it.
- 34:55Speaker 2: Nicole Massey now joins us here Chucking Buck in the morning.
- 34:59Speaker 11: Good morning, Good morning, Chuck and Box. Thanks for having me.
- 35:03Speaker 2: On, well, thank you for being with us. We appreciate it,
- 35:05Speaker 2: all right, So describe this football. Tell us what we
- 35:07Speaker 2: got going on here?
- 35:08Speaker 8: All right?
- 35:09Speaker 11: Let me tell you that it's freaking amazing. Okay, if
- 35:11Speaker 11: you are a Seattle fan or a collector, you need
- 35:15Speaker 11: this ball. And there's only ever going to be five
- 35:18Speaker 11: thousand produced. So we sold out of our Super Bowl
- 35:20Speaker 11: forty eight ball. We're going to sell out of the
- 35:22Speaker 11: Super Bowl sixty ball. So make sure that people are
- 35:24Speaker 11: getting this. The football itself is Seahawks colors. Obviously, it's
- 35:29Speaker 11: got the full season schedule, scores and opponents. It has
- 35:33Speaker 11: the Super Bowl forty eight logo, It has the Super
- 35:35Speaker 11: Bowl sixty logo all in full color. It has the
- 35:38Speaker 11: Seattle Super Bowl Champions logo. We have a full picture
- 35:42Speaker 11: of Sam Darnold and JSN and their stats on their
- 35:46Speaker 11: stadium history, franchise history, all of this on one football.
- 35:51Speaker 11: You cannot get anything else like this on the market
- 35:54Speaker 11: for only one twenty nine to ninety five. And they
- 35:56Speaker 11: are fully embossed. I mean the information on there is
- 35:59Speaker 11: engraved on the panels.
- 36:01Speaker 6: Nice is there a case that you can get for
- 36:03Speaker 6: these things? I would imagine that if you're going to
- 36:05Speaker 6: get one of these, you're wanting to people are wanting
- 36:07Speaker 6: to put it up on a mantle somewhere and showcase
- 36:10Speaker 6: this bad boy.
- 36:11Speaker 11: I would think so because you don't want anyone touching
- 36:13Speaker 11: it because of the collector's item. But yes, we do
- 36:15Speaker 11: have different case options. But I think the big concern
- 36:19Speaker 11: is people not getting this because we've had people calling
- 36:22Speaker 11: this week asking for the Super Bowl forty eight ball
- 36:24Speaker 11: and I'm like first pulled out. So if they want
- 36:26Speaker 11: the Super Bowl sixty football before it sells out, they
- 36:29Speaker 11: want to call us at eight hundred three four five
- 36:34Speaker 11: two eight six eight, or they can go to the
- 36:37Speaker 11: website at nicosports dot com, which is nikco sports dot com.
- 36:43Speaker 11: And we're actually working with NKA, Wish Alaska and Washington,
- 36:47Speaker 11: so a portion of the proceeds of every ball that
- 36:49Speaker 11: we sell is going to that chapter.
- 36:51Speaker 2: How did you become a football lady? Well? Where did
- 36:55Speaker 2: this interest start? In Nicole Massey's life?
- 37:00Speaker 11: Lefting started as a passion with my father, who is
- 37:03Speaker 11: a toy dealer. So I've been selling since i was
- 37:05Speaker 11: eight years old, and then it's kind of just going
- 37:08Speaker 11: into a sports collectible. So now I'm football lady.
- 37:12Speaker 2: Now you're a football lady. H and this one in particular.
- 37:15Speaker 2: What's your favorite part of this good looking piece of merchandise.
- 37:20Speaker 11: You know, honestly, I think the way the Kellers pop.
- 37:24Speaker 11: It's got that midnight blue and it's got the lime
- 37:26Speaker 11: green and then the white paneling. It just it looks
- 37:29Speaker 11: really sharp. It's just a really pretty looking football man.
- 37:32Speaker 2: Yeah. Uh, and has to be added to your collection.
- 37:36Speaker 2: So again, it is Nico Sports. It's got a tricky
- 37:40Speaker 2: spelling nik COO SPO rt s dot com. So that's
- 37:47Speaker 2: where you go on the website or you can just call,
- 37:49Speaker 2: which maybe you want to get out ahead of it.
- 37:51Speaker 2: Eight hundred three four five two eight six eight for
- 37:54Speaker 2: this commemorative football of Super Bowl sixty champion, the Seattle
- 37:59Speaker 2: Sea Hawks. What else do we need to know about
- 38:02Speaker 2: this product? Nicole?
- 38:04Speaker 11: I would just say, as far as it being women
- 38:07Speaker 11: edition of five thousand, it is coming with an individually
- 38:10Speaker 11: numbered certificate of authenticity. Whether you're a Seahawks fan or not,
- 38:15Speaker 11: which I don't know who isn't. But we've got great
- 38:18Speaker 11: gift ideas. I mean, this is mother's Day, Father's Day, graduation,
- 38:21Speaker 11: early holiday shopping. I've got people that buy this just
- 38:24Speaker 11: for an investment because this is only five thousand that
- 38:27Speaker 11: keeps going up in value, so it's a great piece
- 38:30Speaker 11: to have in the collection. And it's also what's nice
- 38:33Speaker 11: about it since it's engraved. These are all the lettering
- 38:37Speaker 11: and logos and all that embedded engraved into the panels
- 38:41Speaker 11: and then they're hands stewn together. So this is more
- 38:43Speaker 11: like an heirloom that gets passed down. So these people
- 38:46Speaker 11: are spending eighty bucks on a T shirt or fifty
- 38:48Speaker 11: bucks on a hat that's going to be ruined in
- 38:50Speaker 11: about a year. This is something that stands the test
- 38:53Speaker 11: of time.
- 38:53Speaker 2: It's a great look an item and a great pitch
- 38:56Speaker 2: from Nicole Massey. Thank you, Nicole, We appreciate it. Then
- 39:00Speaker 2: we're gonna get the word out for you.
- 39:02Speaker 11: Thank you, Chuck fucking Ashley. You guys have a great day.
- 39:04Speaker 2: All right, Nicole Massey from NICO Sports again n i
- 39:08Speaker 2: k coosports dot com. All right, Jean steratur is gonna
- 39:12Speaker 2: join us next to our rules analysts. We claim him
