1:08
Speaker 5: We're getting ready for the Miami Dolphins coming into town.
1:11
Speaker 5: What's on tap?
1:16
Speaker 1: What's on tap?
1:18
Speaker 3: Bump?
1:18
Speaker 5: These Miami Dolphins are one and one, tied for second
1:21
Speaker 5: place in the AFC East. They won their opening game
1:23
Speaker 5: sixteen to ten over the Jacksonville Jaguars lost thirty one
1:26
Speaker 5: to ten to the Buffalo Bills last week. And head
1:30
Speaker 5: coach Mike McDaniel, in his third year's Dolphins head coach,
1:33
Speaker 5: definitely known as an offensive guru for the time he
1:35
Speaker 5: spent with Sean McVay and the Shanahan Tree, been credited
1:38
Speaker 5: for getting the Dolphins kind of back to the promised
1:40
Speaker 5: Land in the sense of back to relevance, I should say,
1:42
Speaker 5: not promised land each his first two seasons, taking them
1:45
Speaker 5: to the playoffs and getting the best out of quarterback
1:47
Speaker 5: to a Tongua Bai Looa. Expectations coming in this year
1:50
Speaker 5: were pretty big bump obviously, as we know that took
1:52
Speaker 5: a huge hit when Tua got the concussion in their
1:55
Speaker 5: game against Buffalo on last Thursday night.
1:57
Speaker 6: Man, I was tough too, was at number four in
1:59
Speaker 6: the last what two seasons or something like that. You
2:02
Speaker 6: hate to see it, man, but you know, playing this game,
2:03
Speaker 6: that's part of it, right. I've had concussions. I've been
2:06
Speaker 6: three that's been like documented, but I probably had like
2:09
Speaker 6: five or six. Is Back in our day it was like, oh,
2:11
Speaker 6: you got your bell rung, get back up, get back
2:12
Speaker 6: in there. But you have to take these seriously, man.
2:15
Speaker 6: So now we're just waiting to see what his future is.
2:17
Speaker 6: He says he's not retiring. He has to talk to
2:20
Speaker 6: his people. I don't know if he's married or not,
2:22
Speaker 6: but I'm sure his mom and dad is loved ones.
2:24
Speaker 6: I just hope that man is okay. But it does
2:27
Speaker 6: give us an advantage that he's not playing this week.
2:29
Speaker 3: Yeah.
2:29
Speaker 5: No, it's a really hard thing to see. You never
2:30
Speaker 5: want to see anyone deal with concussions anything like that.
2:33
Speaker 5: So Mac McDaniel talked about it in me this week.
2:35
Speaker 5: He's gonna let Tua talk for Tua and support him,
2:37
Speaker 5: and I feel like they're handling it the right way.
2:39
Speaker 5: It's tough to see. But in that game, it was
2:42
Speaker 5: before the two injury, it wasn't a close game.
2:43
Speaker 4: Bump.
2:44
Speaker 5: So taking me back to last Thursday as the Bills
2:46
Speaker 5: taking on the Dolphins, and I didn't know how lopsided
2:48
Speaker 5: this rivalry was because their division rivals. But the Bills
2:52
Speaker 5: were eleven and one. Goodness, twelve going into a lasts
2:56
Speaker 5: two good the last two or three years. Man, you
2:57
Speaker 5: would think so, and that includes a playoff Losston there too.
3:00
Speaker 5: But it just wasn't great. Man. It started off you
3:02
Speaker 5: you know, interception early on Dolphins with answer with one
3:06
Speaker 5: long touchdown to tie the game. But after that turnovers
3:08
Speaker 5: story of the game, Bill said no turnovers, Dolphins had
3:10
Speaker 5: three turnovers. Didn't matter. You know, Dolphins actually dominate time possession,
3:14
Speaker 5: but it didn't matter. Josh Allen Oka Day thirteen of
3:18
Speaker 5: nineteen hundred three nine yards, one touchdown. But again I
3:20
Speaker 5: told you it was about turnovers.
3:22
Speaker 3: Ye.
3:22
Speaker 5: Devon a Chen who were going to talk about later,
3:24
Speaker 5: was the lone bright spot in that game with one
3:26
Speaker 5: hundred and sixty five total yards ninety six rushing, sixty
3:29
Speaker 5: nine receiving, and Chue was having a tough day before
3:32
Speaker 5: the injury, he was seventeen to twenty five one hundred
3:34
Speaker 5: and forty five yards, one touchdown but three interceptions, and
3:38
Speaker 5: you know, things went bad to worse as Tua got hit,
3:41
Speaker 5: couldn't colliding with Damar Hamlin again. It was tough to
3:44
Speaker 5: see him go down like that. Time time goal for
3:46
Speaker 5: his return is unknown. He is on ir so that's
3:49
Speaker 5: kind of how it ended up. But the thing for
3:51
Speaker 5: the Dolphins, they're well rested. They played on a Thursday night.
3:53
Speaker 5: Now they're coming across the country to Seattle. Definitely easier
3:57
Speaker 5: for teams on the East coast coming back out west
3:58
Speaker 5: in my opinion, So they're getting some time back. But
4:01
Speaker 5: imp looking at these two teams, Seahawks obviously undefeated, Dolphins
4:04
Speaker 5: have won lost. You what are your takeaways from the
4:06
Speaker 5: head to head As we know, it's only been two weeks.
4:07
Speaker 3: All right.
4:08
Speaker 6: We got two weeks of data, though last time it
4:10
Speaker 6: was one week of data. Before that it was just speculation.
4:12
Speaker 6: I don't know, let's see what's going down. Now we
4:14
Speaker 6: got some ideas of what's going on now. The Dolphins
4:17
Speaker 6: are eighth overall when it comes to offense. We expect
4:20
Speaker 6: some of these numbers to take a hit because two
4:21
Speaker 6: is not in the game right, twentieth when it comes
4:23
Speaker 6: to rushing first and past offense, and then fifteenth when
4:26
Speaker 6: it comes to scoring points.
4:28
Speaker 3: Let's look over to the Hawks. They are thirteenth overall.
4:30
Speaker 6: They are twenty third running the rock, sixth passing that
4:32
Speaker 6: thing in ninth when it comes to points. Defensively, on paper,
4:36
Speaker 6: you got two pretty good defenses going at it. The
4:38
Speaker 6: Hawks sixth overall, the Dolphins fourth. When it comes to
4:41
Speaker 6: stop in the run, the Hawks are twenty first. Big
4:44
Speaker 6: hit last week one hundred and eighty five on the ground,
4:45
Speaker 6: so that number, you know, take it for what it's worth.
4:47
Speaker 6: And then the Dolphins are fifteenth, allowing one to eighteen
4:51
Speaker 6: pass defense.
4:52
Speaker 3: Let's go, let's go. Come on now.
4:54
Speaker 6: Hawks are second in the league allowing one hundred and
4:56
Speaker 6: twenty eight through the air, and then the Dolphins are fifth,
4:58
Speaker 6: allowing one thirty nine scoring points. The Hawks are putting
5:01
Speaker 6: up twenty a game, that's twelve, and the Dolphins putting
5:04
Speaker 6: up twenty four game that is twenty third. Two interceptions
5:09
Speaker 6: taken away by the Seahawks. The Dolphins don't have any yet.
5:12
Speaker 6: You got Jalen Ramsey in a good secondary over there.
5:15
Speaker 6: Let's hope they don't get started this week. But on paper, again,
5:19
Speaker 6: another evenly matched team. When you dive a little deeper,
5:22
Speaker 6: you know two is not going to be in the game.
5:23
Speaker 6: Waiting to see who's going to be healthy on that
5:25
Speaker 6: offensive line for the Hawks and in the backfield as well.
5:28
Speaker 6: We'll know about ninety minutes before the game. We'll get
5:30
Speaker 6: that from Jim Muller. She'll let us know. But on paper,
5:33
Speaker 6: let's get it. But this is the NFL. On paper,
5:35
Speaker 6: it might not look like a close game, but it
5:37
Speaker 6: could be. But this one looks like it's going to
5:39
Speaker 6: be a close game, and I anticipated being closer than
5:41
Speaker 6: what people think just because of Skylar Thompson filling in
5:44
Speaker 6: for Tua.
5:45
Speaker 5: Yeah, we're going to get into all the matchups and
5:46
Speaker 5: man up because the Dolphins have a lot of talented
5:49
Speaker 5: players on that offense and that defense. So some of
5:51
Speaker 5: these numbers might equate. The entire story you talked about
5:54
Speaker 5: a Seahawks run defense really took a hit. They fall
5:56
Speaker 5: the twenty first. Anytime you give up on hundred and
5:58
Speaker 5: eighty five yards rushing, that's going to happen. So definitely
6:00
Speaker 5: looking for the Seahawks to improve on that. But yeah,
6:03
Speaker 5: second in pass defense, what are the kids doing now?
6:05
Speaker 3: I'm on now here the box.
6:08
Speaker 2: Yea.
6:08
Speaker 6: I saw one kid pull up his shirt like he
6:11
Speaker 6: had the stra from Memphis, and I go, that might
6:14
Speaker 6: be a flag get check a little too much.
6:17
Speaker 3: Easy, But the first one he got away with it.
6:19
Speaker 3: That was the first one.
6:20
Speaker 4: Easy.
6:20
Speaker 5: Okay, all right, let's get into this history between the
6:23
Speaker 5: Seahawks and the Dolphins.
6:24
Speaker 4: Know the history, no your history.
6:27
Speaker 5: Dolphins lead all time series ten to six. They're five
6:30
Speaker 5: and eight in the regular season and one to two
6:32
Speaker 5: in the postseason. However, the Hawks have won the last
6:34
Speaker 5: two regular seed in games. The last matchup they had
6:38
Speaker 5: was again during the infamous COVID season back in twenty twenty.
6:41
Speaker 5: That's the last time the Seahawks played the AFC East.
6:43
Speaker 5: That's what we're going to see this four times this season.
6:46
Speaker 5: Hawks went down to Miami and it was good at
6:47
Speaker 5: result for the Hawks thirty one to twenty three victory.
6:50
Speaker 5: Russell Wilson had a big day, going thirty twenty four
6:53
Speaker 5: for thirty four three hundred and sixty yards, two touchdowns,
6:56
Speaker 5: win interception. DK Metcalf led all receivers with four receptions,
7:00
Speaker 5: one hundred and six yards and Chris Carson man I
7:02
Speaker 5: miss Chris Shawn Danny ground eighty yards two touchdowns. Hawks
7:06
Speaker 5: led the entire way and had back to back touchdowns
7:09
Speaker 5: in the fourth quarter, led by Demo Swag David Moore
7:12
Speaker 5: Let's go Demo Chris Carson Bobby Wags led all defenders
7:15
Speaker 5: with twelve tackles. And on the other side, Ryan Fitzpatrick
7:18
Speaker 5: was starting for the Dolphins. He went twenty nine to
7:21
Speaker 5: forty five three fifteen, zero touchdowns, And I have a
7:23
Speaker 5: typo on here it says thirty two interceptions.
7:25
Speaker 3: That'd be amazing.
7:26
Speaker 4: I believe it was two.
7:28
Speaker 6: That one our guy Ryan Neil Big Ryan. That's when
7:31
Speaker 6: he got to start, right Jamal went down. I believe
7:34
Speaker 6: then he got to start.
7:35
Speaker 4: Yep.
7:35
Speaker 5: It was right after that Cowboys game. Yeah, yeah, that's
7:37
Speaker 5: good memory, good chick bump.
7:39
Speaker 3: You know CTE. It fades away sometimes.
7:42
Speaker 5: Hey, you'll be all right. But let's check in what's
7:45
Speaker 5: going on in the NFC West. What's the word the
7:52
Speaker 5: Seahawks with the NFC West champs again.
7:55
Speaker 4: What's the word in the West? On Hawk talk?
7:59
Speaker 6: Hey, I'm the captain now sets on top. That's what
8:03
Speaker 6: they're saying to everybody else into division. Man, they're two
8:06
Speaker 6: and zero, Cardinals are one and one, forty nine Er
8:09
Speaker 6: is one to one, and the Rams are surprising oz
8:11
Speaker 6: and to two.
8:11
Speaker 3: Man, they're getting hit with injuries left and right.
8:13
Speaker 6: They the Seahawks head until week three sitting all along,
8:16
Speaker 6: like I said, in first place in the West.
8:18
Speaker 3: And it's only been two weeks.
8:20
Speaker 6: But it's glad that these guys are taking advantage of
8:22
Speaker 6: a situation that's going down in the West. So let's
8:26
Speaker 6: focus on one game, the Rams and the Cardinals. Once again,
8:29
Speaker 6: the Cardinals played in one of the more surprising games
8:32
Speaker 6: of the weekend. I wasn't ready for this, man, the Cardinals,
8:35
Speaker 6: they might be a problem this year. Man, they're looking
8:37
Speaker 6: pretty good. They beat the Rams forty one to ten,
8:41
Speaker 6: snapped a nine game losing streak to the Rams at
8:43
Speaker 6: State Farm Stadium. I'm watching this game. I'm not watching.
8:48
Speaker 6: I'm keeping track of it because we're working on Sundays.
8:51
Speaker 6: And I see the score go up, and it keeps
8:54
Speaker 6: going up, and he keeps going up, and then I
8:55
Speaker 6: see the numbers from the young man, Marvin Harrison. First quarter.
8:59
Speaker 6: He did all in the first quarter. Yeah, a buck
9:01
Speaker 6: thirty and a touchdown or two in the first quarter.
9:04
Speaker 6: And it scared me a little bit because it feels
9:07
Speaker 6: like there's a shift.
9:08
Speaker 3: Going on in the division. Now. I think the forty
9:10
Speaker 3: nineer are going to be okay. I think the Rams
9:12
Speaker 3: have been hit with a whole bunch of injuries.
9:13
Speaker 6: But the team that people expected are counted on finishing
9:17
Speaker 6: fourth in the division are saying, look, man, look we
9:20
Speaker 6: look a bit more different now, man. James Carnor had
9:23
Speaker 6: himself a big day. He had twenty one carries for
9:25
Speaker 6: one two and a touchdown. Matthew Stafford it was an
9:30
Speaker 6: alright day. Right, didn't produce any touchdowns, but it was
9:32
Speaker 6: nineteen to twenty seven for two sixteen zero touchdowns. He
9:35
Speaker 6: was sacked five times. Now we know pookin the coops
9:38
Speaker 6: out of this thing. Right, situations worse. The one time
9:41
Speaker 6: I looked up and watched a play in that game,
9:43
Speaker 6: it was Cooper Cup catching this like thirty plus yard reception,
9:46
Speaker 6: getting busy afterwards. Then I watched him go to the
9:49
Speaker 6: huddle in his face. I go, something ain't right, something
9:52
Speaker 6: ain't right. And something wasn't right man. He had an
9:54
Speaker 6: ankle injury and did not return the Cardinals. They look
9:58
Speaker 6: potent on offense, decent on defense. We know the rounds
10:01
Speaker 6: were banged up, but a forty one to ten win,
10:03
Speaker 6: you can't sleep on.
10:04
Speaker 5: No, you're put up forty one points. And we knew
10:07
Speaker 5: how talented Calamary is. We always have none. Now just
10:09
Speaker 5: seeing what they get the best out of them. I
10:11
Speaker 5: know there's a lot of jokes made around Jonathan Ganna
10:13
Speaker 5: and their coach.
10:13
Speaker 4: Last year. He stepped into a difficult situation.
10:15
Speaker 5: Right kind of clean up what happened during the Kingsbury
10:18
Speaker 5: era and right now they got talent. And you add
10:20
Speaker 5: Marvin Harrison, that's scary. He's gonna be a problem moving forward.
10:23
Speaker 5: So it's something to watch.
10:24
Speaker 3: They got a number two over there too. Michael Wilson Man.
10:27
Speaker 5: Yeah, man, yeah, they they they are good. All right,
10:30
Speaker 5: let's get into the next matchup the Seahawks. More good
10:32
Speaker 5: news for them. The forty nine ers go down to
10:34
Speaker 5: Minnesota and take in l Now, you're a guy on
10:38
Speaker 5: if you listen to the Bama Stacey, Sam.
10:39
Speaker 6: Darn I've been trying to I've been trying to tell y'all,
10:42
Speaker 6: Sam Darnold, give this man some talent.
10:44
Speaker 5: Man, come on, hey, I mean look, the first week
10:47
Speaker 5: when they beat the Giants, are thinking, Okay, we cool.
10:50
Speaker 5: It's cool, yeah, But to beat the forty nine ers,
10:52
Speaker 5: that's saying something your old team. And if you look
10:54
Speaker 5: at the box score, you think the forty nine ers
10:56
Speaker 5: won this game because they started looking through it. I'm like, okay,
10:57
Speaker 5: they had more first down twenty four to seventeen, one
11:00
Speaker 5: time possession by like ten full minutes. Rock Party had
11:03
Speaker 5: a solidate statistically twenty eight to thirty six three nineteen
11:05
Speaker 5: one tod what interception Jordan Mason, who's filling in really well? Yeah,
11:11
Speaker 5: come on, one hundred yards, twenty carries, one touchdown, Deebo Samuel,
11:14
Speaker 5: eight receptions one ten. You start see those numbers and
11:17
Speaker 5: you go, okay, they probably won this game. But forty
11:20
Speaker 5: nine Ers shopped themselves in the foot over and over
11:22
Speaker 5: and over again. They had a block punt which led
11:25
Speaker 5: to three points. Then they got stopped on fourth and
11:27
Speaker 5: goal from the two yard line after an eighty eight
11:29
Speaker 5: yard drive. Then Rock Party threw a pick on his
11:31
Speaker 5: own thirteen yard line, Viking score the next play, and
11:34
Speaker 5: then finally down nine with on one to fifty seven
11:37
Speaker 5: left in the game. Okay, maybe get a touchdown to
11:38
Speaker 5: get outsie kick kick a field goal, try Brock trust
11:41
Speaker 5: hit Deebo Samuel, will dump off. It almost gets picked off.
11:44
Speaker 5: He gets hit for a nine yard loss. They kicked
11:46
Speaker 5: a field goal, they end up k not getting the
11:48
Speaker 5: outside kick, and they lose the game. On the other side,
11:51
Speaker 5: justin Jefferson, look cool, little ninety seven yard touchdown, easy work.
11:55
Speaker 5: Did you see the ref on that play?
11:57
Speaker 6: Burn Not only did the ref keep with him, he's starting,
12:01
Speaker 6: stopped and accelerated to stay with him.
12:03
Speaker 3: We need to sign it. We need this rest name,
12:05
Speaker 3: give him some information.
12:06
Speaker 5: I need to look it up. Moving his hips and stuff.
12:08
Speaker 5: It was textbook bro shout out to that man right there.
12:11
Speaker 5: But uh for for Darnold, he was seventeen to twenty six,
12:13
Speaker 5: two sixty eight, two touchdowns, one interception, and just like
12:17
Speaker 5: the Rams Niners getting hit with the injury bug as well.
12:19
Speaker 4: It's make matters worse.
12:19
Speaker 5: Forty nine ers canna be about Deebo Samuel for the
12:21
Speaker 5: next couple of weeks, as he suffered a calf strain
12:23
Speaker 5: in the final minutes of that game. McCaffrey's already on
12:26
Speaker 5: the IR so the divisions a little banged up bump
12:31
Speaker 5: forty nine ers are coming to see going to LA
12:33
Speaker 5: I should say this weekend. So either the Rams are
12:36
Speaker 5: going to be owing three yeah, or the Niners gonna be.
12:38
Speaker 3: One in two. I think the Rams are gonna be
12:39
Speaker 3: on three.
12:40
Speaker 4: I also think, I really do.
12:42
Speaker 6: It's probably better if the Niners were to lose this one,
12:44
Speaker 6: probably yeah, yeah, But I think the Rams will be
12:46
Speaker 6: all on three either way.
12:47
Speaker 5: The Seahawks, if they take care of business, will be
12:49
Speaker 5: three and zero again, all alone in the NFC West.
12:52
Speaker 5: So definitely looking up. But the team of Seahawks are
12:54
Speaker 5: playing is the Miami Dolphins. Let's getting these specific matchups
12:58
Speaker 5: with man.
12:58
Speaker 7: Up, Man up on Hawk Talk.
13:09
Speaker 6: All right, man, we opened up the podcast talking about
13:12
Speaker 6: this man.
13:13
Speaker 3: The big story is Tool going down.
13:14
Speaker 6: Man Mike McDonald said, look, l oh man, my bad,
13:19
Speaker 6: My bad McDonald. Mike McDaniel said, on Monday, Tool was
13:23
Speaker 6: in the building. He was spawning with his teammates. But
13:25
Speaker 6: it's too early to make a statement regarding the time
13:28
Speaker 6: table when he's going to be back. He's been placed
13:31
Speaker 6: on an IR so we shall see. Just get better.
13:34
Speaker 6: That's the focus. With to forget who he plays for,
13:37
Speaker 6: what school he went to. He's a human being. And
13:40
Speaker 6: let's hope that that he gets better soon.
13:42
Speaker 3: Man.
13:43
Speaker 6: So with that being said, you had to turn to
13:45
Speaker 6: the young man Skylar Thompson. And this is his third
13:47
Speaker 6: season in the NFL. He was a seventh round pick
13:50
Speaker 6: out of Kansas State, number two forty seven overall his
13:53
Speaker 6: college stats.
13:54
Speaker 3: Man, he was doing his thing.
13:56
Speaker 6: Five point fifty two for eight eighty five seven thirty
14:00
Speaker 6: four yards, forty two touchdowns, sixteen interceptions.
14:03
Speaker 3: This is stet that surprised me. I didn't know he
14:04
Speaker 3: was getting busy like this.
14:05
Speaker 6: Yeah, three hundred and fifty five carries for over one
14:07
Speaker 6: thousand yards and twenty six touchdowns. He has three starts
14:11
Speaker 6: in the NFL, including a playoff game against the Bills
14:14
Speaker 6: in the wildcard round of the twenty twenty two playoffs.
14:17
Speaker 6: All right, his stats and three career starts in twenty
14:19
Speaker 6: twenty two. Right, he goes seven for thirteen eighty nine yards,
14:22
Speaker 6: no touchdowns, no interceptions.
14:23
Speaker 3: I was against Minnesota, that was a loss.
14:25
Speaker 6: A win against the Jets twenty of thirty one for
14:27
Speaker 6: one to fifty two, no touchdown, no interceptions.
14:30
Speaker 3: A loss to Buffalo eighteen to forty five.
14:32
Speaker 6: They forced him throw it twenty twenty yards, one touchdown,
14:36
Speaker 6: two interceptions. I mean, look, three starts in the league,
14:40
Speaker 6: not much to go off of. Right, He's a seventh
14:42
Speaker 6: round pick. I know everyone's looking for a rock party.
14:46
Speaker 6: You can't expect much out of him, but you can't
14:48
Speaker 6: allow him to get confident and get into a group.
14:50
Speaker 6: He does have weapons, and we're gonna talk about these weapons.
14:52
Speaker 6: He got weapons on the outside, he's got weapons in
14:55
Speaker 6: the backfield. It's all about just making life difficult for
14:58
Speaker 6: this guy. Man, get after him, show him different looks,
15:01
Speaker 6: mix up your stunts, mess with your coverage. He has
15:04
Speaker 6: to use all his information as a quarterback to defeat You.
15:07
Speaker 6: Don't sleep on nobody because we know what it's like
15:09
Speaker 6: for backups at littlemin Field for some reason.
15:11
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm hoping that's over now.
15:12
Speaker 3: Yeah, please, I'm hoping.
15:13
Speaker 5: With coach McDonald coming in and shutting it down with
15:15
Speaker 5: this defense. But no, don't sleep on on Skylar because
15:18
Speaker 5: of the weapons he has, and everything we've heard out
15:20
Speaker 5: of Dolphins camp is that he earned a lot of
15:22
Speaker 5: respect from that staff. He went out there and won
15:24
Speaker 5: the number two job this year because he was he
15:27
Speaker 5: was the number three in that twenty twenty two season
15:29
Speaker 5: and got flushed in the duty. But now he's kind
15:32
Speaker 5: of earned it in that sense of coach McGain and
15:35
Speaker 5: all of them. So we'll see. But to your point,
15:37
Speaker 5: it's not not someone you hope that's going off against Sea,
15:40
Speaker 5: someone that you got to make look like someone who's
15:41
Speaker 5: only started three games. Now, So what over our quarterback?
15:45
Speaker 5: You know Smith and boy bump that he ball out
15:47
Speaker 5: last week? Come on, g you know three thirty three
15:50
Speaker 5: for forty four three and twenty seven yards, one touchdown,
15:53
Speaker 5: completed seventy five percent of his passes even though Seattle
15:56
Speaker 5: had five drops.
15:57
Speaker 3: He would have been aroundety five percent. Yes, insane.
16:01
Speaker 5: And he also had thirty three completions, which was a
16:03
Speaker 5: career high for Gino passed Rick Meyer on fifth place
16:06
Speaker 5: with all time passing completion list with a forty two.
16:08
Speaker 5: Also passed me rick Meyer for fifth place on Seattle's
16:11
Speaker 5: all time passing yards list with nine and thirty nine.
16:15
Speaker 5: Leads the NFL and game winning drive since twenty twenty two,
16:18
Speaker 5: naturally nine. So he's I mean, Geno through two weeks
16:21
Speaker 5: is balling out, I mean passing yards in the NFL.
16:23
Speaker 5: He ranked six completion percentage. She ranks fourth QBR fourth,
16:27
Speaker 5: QB rating seventh and that's just through two weeks. I know,
16:30
Speaker 5: but I mean his performance got nominated. He didn't win
16:33
Speaker 5: for FedEx Air Ground Player of the Week. But I'm
16:36
Speaker 5: just seeing a lot of good stuff out of Gino,
16:37
Speaker 5: and like he just seems like he's so confident. We
16:40
Speaker 5: kind of saw this beginning of twenty twenty two. But
16:42
Speaker 5: if he has time, he's gonna.
16:43
Speaker 4: Find the guy.
16:44
Speaker 5: I mean, he was throwing dots all over the field
16:46
Speaker 5: whoever he's finding, So I just hit some made my
16:53
Speaker 5: ears go quiet for a second. I was like, what
16:55
Speaker 5: just happened. No, Gino's been crushing the game and I'm
16:58
Speaker 5: really happy to see it. I think Ryan Grubb deserve
17:00
Speaker 5: some credit for the offense, but Gino's been around the
17:03
Speaker 5: game and he's executing right. You can only do so much.
17:05
Speaker 5: Ryan Grub's not throwing the ball, he's not in the huddle.
17:08
Speaker 5: But both of them together this can be a dangerous
17:11
Speaker 5: combo for the rest of the NFC.
17:13
Speaker 6: What I love about this combo is that Grub is
17:15
Speaker 6: given Geno time. Like they're breaking the huddle with like
17:18
Speaker 6: fifteen seconds left on the playclock. They're getting to the
17:20
Speaker 6: line of scrimmage. You're allowing your emotions to happen. Gino's
17:23
Speaker 6: looking at the defense like he was already on point
17:26
Speaker 6: last year and it seemed like every play was rushed.
17:28
Speaker 3: This year, he's got ample time. Grub's on point.
17:31
Speaker 6: He's on point, and he's looking like the pro bowler
17:34
Speaker 6: we saw a couple seasons ago.
17:35
Speaker 3: So keep up the good work, Gino.
17:38
Speaker 6: I just talk about another match of a guy Rashem
17:41
Speaker 6: Mostered and Devonte a Chen against the Seahawks front seven.
17:45
Speaker 3: This is gonna be a good one, man.
17:47
Speaker 6: The Dolphins have got two talented running backs in the
17:48
Speaker 6: backfield the guys that just mentioned a. Seahawks fans should
17:51
Speaker 6: be pretty familiar with Moster. He spent six seasons with
17:54
Speaker 6: the forty nine ers and what's bawling, he's been in
17:56
Speaker 6: the league like nineteen years now, ye nine, ten, yeah,
17:59
Speaker 6: yea doing his thing man, and he's been good under
18:02
Speaker 6: Mike mcdonneld at Miami too. In twenty twenty three, he
18:05
Speaker 6: had one thousand yards, eighteen touchdowns, twenty five receptions for
18:08
Speaker 6: one seventy five and three touchdowns and earned him his
18:12
Speaker 6: first Pro Bowl now, so good for him.
18:14
Speaker 3: The other running back a chan he was a third round.
18:16
Speaker 6: Pick out of Texas A and M, and he was
18:19
Speaker 6: a he's part of at one two punch. Last year,
18:22
Speaker 6: he had eight hundred yards, eight touchdowns, twenty seven receptions
18:25
Speaker 6: for one ninety seven and three touchdowns. He's he's been
18:30
Speaker 6: pushing to a bigger role this year, right, And I
18:33
Speaker 6: think I look at that backfield and that's what the
18:36
Speaker 6: NFL is going to be. It used to be just
18:38
Speaker 6: you got one one horse that you ran every single
18:41
Speaker 6: down and maybe sprinkled in another back This is what
18:44
Speaker 6: the NFL is now. You got a legit one two combo.
18:47
Speaker 6: The Hawks got one here when they're healthy, and Ken
18:49
Speaker 6: Walker and Zach Charbonay. You look all across the league,
18:52
Speaker 6: this is what you're getting. So you know, a Chan
18:56
Speaker 6: had a few bright spots against Buffalo last week.
18:58
Speaker 3: He combined for one hundred and sixty five.
19:00
Speaker 6: This is with Moster being out ninety six rushing, sixty
19:03
Speaker 6: nine receiving in one touchdown. So we're waiting to see
19:06
Speaker 6: what Moster is going to look like on Sunday, if
19:07
Speaker 6: he's going to be available. If he is available, I
19:10
Speaker 6: know this offensive line and Mike McDaniel are looking at
19:13
Speaker 6: the last game and saying let's do a little bit
19:15
Speaker 6: of what New England did.
19:16
Speaker 3: So this front they got some work to do.
19:19
Speaker 6: But I think when they're healthy and when they're just
19:21
Speaker 6: getting downhill and keeping linebackers clean, they got a shot.
19:24
Speaker 5: The cool thing, too, is is a home game. It's
19:26
Speaker 5: not at ten am. It's back at home. So the
19:28
Speaker 5: twelves are going to be behind this defense. And now I
19:30
Speaker 5: have a rookie, not a rookie, it'should say, a quarterback
19:33
Speaker 5: who's making his fourth career start in the NFL. So
19:36
Speaker 5: I think we're gonna get a steady dose of a
19:38
Speaker 5: Chan and Mostert if he is playing. So I'll be
19:40
Speaker 5: an interesting matchup to watch moving forward. Talking about weapons
19:43
Speaker 5: for mister Thompson, man, I mean I'm biased because I
19:47
Speaker 5: think the two best receivers in the league, whatever tantem
19:51
Speaker 5: you want to split it, if it's Dkjsan Jays and
19:53
Speaker 5: DK Tyler Locket Jason, whatever combo, there's a lot of
19:56
Speaker 5: them you can do. I'm not a math major, but
19:57
Speaker 5: there's some combos in there, some of those three. But
20:00
Speaker 5: if I'm objectively looking outside of the Seahawks, Tyreek killing
20:03
Speaker 5: Jaalen wattle Man of them they're probably the best in
20:06
Speaker 5: the league. Tyreek Hill already passed a ten thousand yard
20:09
Speaker 5: mark for career receiving yards, and it's coming off the
20:11
Speaker 5: best season of his career. He led this the league
20:14
Speaker 5: in receiving yards, touchdowns, and yards per game last year.
20:17
Speaker 5: He's an eight time Pro Bowler, been a first team
20:19
Speaker 5: All Pro five guys, including the last two seasons. That yeah,
20:24
Speaker 5: and yes he played with Patrick Mahomes, but man him
20:28
Speaker 5: in the resurrection of TUA, big part of the guys
20:31
Speaker 5: he's thrown to, and he's one of them. And you
20:33
Speaker 5: look at so far this year, he's got ten receptions,
20:36
Speaker 5: one hundred and fifty four yards, one touchdown. I mentioned
20:38
Speaker 5: last year he had one hundred and nineteen receptions. That's crazy,
20:42
Speaker 5: seven and ninety nine yards, thirteen touchdowns.
20:45
Speaker 3: It's not fair. Yeah, it's not fair.
20:48
Speaker 4: So I would love to throw Tyreek kill the football.
20:50
Speaker 5: So he's obviously amazing on paper, and then on the
20:53
Speaker 5: other side, it's not like the other.
20:54
Speaker 4: Dude, some kind of scrub. He is a Pro Bowl
20:56
Speaker 4: type player.
20:57
Speaker 5: Jaalen Wattle former first round pick six overall out of
21:00
Speaker 5: the University of Alabama, and he's had a great start
21:02
Speaker 5: to his career, three straight one thousand yard seasons led
21:06
Speaker 5: the NFL and yards per reception in twenty twenty two
21:09
Speaker 5: at eighteen and last year seventy two receptions oney fourteen
21:13
Speaker 5: yards in four touchdowns two games. This year been a
21:16
Speaker 5: little quieter, nine receptions t one hundred and fifty yards,
21:18
Speaker 5: zero touchdowns on nine targets. So the Seahawks are going
21:22
Speaker 5: to get their first real tests in terms of the secondary.
21:25
Speaker 5: We know how good our secondary is with Witherspoon and
21:28
Speaker 5: Riek Wohlan and Jenkins and Julian Love and Kevon Wallace
21:32
Speaker 5: and everyone there. Kobe Bryant's gonna get a shot all
21:34
Speaker 5: these different people, but this is the first time they're
21:37
Speaker 5: facing a tandem with this kind of burner speed, this
21:40
Speaker 5: kind of talent to rout you up all up and
21:42
Speaker 5: down the football field. And the Seahawks events have been
21:45
Speaker 5: clamping guys up, allowing you know, the second best passing
21:48
Speaker 5: defense in the National Football League. But this is gonna
21:50
Speaker 5: be fun tests to watch this week.
21:51
Speaker 6: Yeah, Like, no disrespect to the Broncos wide receiver corps.
21:54
Speaker 6: Ain't no Pro Bowl was over there right New England.
21:56
Speaker 6: I think what maybe there were three receptions outside of
21:59
Speaker 6: the tight end last week All game, Yeah, all game
22:02
Speaker 6: one hundred. Salute to you, mister tight end. For the
22:05
Speaker 6: new England pages and digit theme. This is a different
22:07
Speaker 6: kind of challenge man, So Reek's gonna have to depend
22:10
Speaker 6: on that speed that he has, that technique that he's
22:12
Speaker 6: developed over the past two and a half season, and
22:15
Speaker 6: Spoon just has to go out there and be spooning
22:17
Speaker 6: those safeties fly around. This is the chess match that
22:20
Speaker 6: I want to see. You got the young gun and
22:22
Speaker 6: Mike McDaniels the offensive coordinator. You got the young guy
22:26
Speaker 6: when it comes to NFL experience, but you know Uncle
22:28
Speaker 6: over there and Grubb trying to bring his offense.
22:31
Speaker 3: To the table.
22:31
Speaker 6: And just see how these guys go back and forth.
22:33
Speaker 6: You sprinkle in the defense. It should be a good win.
22:35
Speaker 6: Speaking of offense, let's talk about our receivers. You got
22:38
Speaker 6: DK got Lockett in JSM last week.
22:42
Speaker 3: DK did his thing.
22:43
Speaker 6: Ten receptions, one twenty nine and one touchdown on fourteen targets.
22:47
Speaker 6: He passed Tyler Lockett and Darryl Jackson for the most
22:49
Speaker 6: receptions in a player's first six seasons with three hundred
22:52
Speaker 6: and eighty five. He also passed Darrel Jackson four, second
22:56
Speaker 6: place in the franchise history for most yards in the
22:58
Speaker 6: players first six seasons with fifty four hundred and ninety.
23:02
Speaker 6: Last week, JSN had the game of his career. Now
23:06
Speaker 6: that's it if you don't count the game winner against
23:08
Speaker 6: Philly or the game winner against Cleveland.
23:10
Speaker 3: Those were clutch plays.
23:11
Speaker 6: But overall he had a career day twelve receptions, career high,
23:15
Speaker 6: one hundred and seventeen yards career high, and I was
23:17
Speaker 6: on sixteen targets. Man dkjson accounted for thirty of the
23:21
Speaker 6: forty four targets last week.
23:24
Speaker 3: And then those sleep on Tyler Lockett.
23:25
Speaker 6: Though on the stat sheet is gonna say, oh he
23:28
Speaker 6: had two targets, Now I really had four because Sutam
23:31
Speaker 6: thinks were passing the afferences.
23:32
Speaker 3: And they were big and they were clutched.
23:34
Speaker 6: Then he had one big cash towards the end of
23:36
Speaker 6: the year where he put the little Oki dok on
23:39
Speaker 6: them guy out of bounds. And the thing about Tyler
23:41
Speaker 6: Lockett is he's not I don't think he's worried about
23:44
Speaker 6: his targets. He goes whatever. Whenever you need me, I
23:47
Speaker 6: got you. If those two young guns want to go
23:49
Speaker 6: get that money, go get it because when it's clutch time,
23:52
Speaker 6: you are going to look at number sixteen. Now secondary,
23:56
Speaker 6: Jalen Ramsey is one of the best corners in the game.
23:59
Speaker 6: Just got for a reason, DK Tyler, they're gonna see him.
24:04
Speaker 6: This is the first time JSM is gonna see Jaylen Ramsey.
24:08
Speaker 3: But I feel like he's gonna be on a slot
24:09
Speaker 3: a bit more so he ain't gona see him too much.
24:11
Speaker 5: Well, it'll be interesting too because DK and Jayleen Ramsey
24:15
Speaker 5: are very familiar.
24:16
Speaker 6: Oh yeaha, this is like a UFC main event coming
24:19
Speaker 6: up on Sunday fighting exactly exactly. You know, they didn't
24:26
Speaker 6: put a graphic up. You know, NFL. I'm not gonna
24:29
Speaker 6: say the station because I don't know who he affiliated with,
24:30
Speaker 6: But NFL golet and take my guy NASA's idea and
24:34
Speaker 6: use that graphic. Jayleen Ramsey right. His first season in Miami,
24:38
Speaker 6: he played in ten games. He had twenty two tackles,
24:40
Speaker 6: three interceptions, five passes defendant. Despite playing in just ten games,
24:44
Speaker 6: he was still voted to the Pro Bowl because everybody
24:46
Speaker 6: knows what's up with him. He was previously an All
24:49
Speaker 6: Pro corner in twenty twenty and twenty twenty one on
24:52
Speaker 6: the other side of Ramsey, you got another veteran.
24:54
Speaker 3: You got Kendall Fuller.
24:55
Speaker 6: Last season, he had seventy nine tackles, two interceptions, nine
24:58
Speaker 6: passes defendant in two he fls at safety. The Dolphins
25:02
Speaker 6: have a twelve year veteran, Jordan Poyer has been in
25:04
Speaker 6: the league twelve years. I was shocked by that because
25:07
Speaker 6: I remember him all this time in Buffalo. Twelve is
25:09
Speaker 6: a long damn time. I would have said like six
25:11
Speaker 6: or seven. Yeah, man, all right, I see you keep
25:14
Speaker 6: doing your thing.
25:15
Speaker 3: Man.
25:15
Speaker 6: He was the first time All Pro guy in twenty
25:17
Speaker 6: twenty one Pro Bowler in twenty twenty two. Poyer had
25:20
Speaker 6: one hundred tackles, two TFLs, two quarterback hits, one sack,
25:23
Speaker 6: and four passes defended last season. So I mean, look,
25:28
Speaker 6: they're the fourth fourth best defense against the pass on
25:31
Speaker 6: line one thirty nine. For reason, they got the names
25:34
Speaker 6: out there, But guess what, we got some names over
25:37
Speaker 6: here too.
25:38
Speaker 3: Let's get ready.
25:39
Speaker 6: I'm not gonna say because you get fine if you
25:42
Speaker 6: say that phrase, Let's get ready to you can't say
25:45
Speaker 6: you cannot, and this podcast can't afford it, can't afford it.
25:47
Speaker 4: Let's get ready to do path to victory.
25:49
Speaker 3: There you go, after.
25:52
Speaker 2: Forty five waits for the staff, Michael Dixon puts it down.
25:55
Speaker 3: That kick is away, and.
25:57
Speaker 2: That kick is good.
25:59
Speaker 1: Good, say off, it's gun. It's a path to victory.
26:02
Speaker 1: On Hawk Talk.
26:05
Speaker 4: Man, just keep playing winning football.
26:06
Speaker 5: I think it's really refreshing, even if you're not perfect,
26:08
Speaker 5: to find ways to win games. That's what the Seahawks
26:10
Speaker 5: did last week. And for me, Bump, it's gonna start defensively.
26:14
Speaker 5: Get after Scott Thompson. And that's not to be disrespectful.
26:17
Speaker 4: That's us.
26:17
Speaker 5: He's making his fourth career start. The Seahawks are at home.
26:20
Speaker 5: He's yet to put up big, normal numbers, so let's
26:22
Speaker 5: not start that on Sunday. I think if you pressure,
26:24
Speaker 5: confuse him early and often do different things to create turnovers.
26:28
Speaker 5: Seahawks had three turnovers against the Broncos, didn't have any
26:30
Speaker 5: last week.
26:31
Speaker 4: Hoping to get that changed on Sunday.
26:33
Speaker 6: Yep, stop that run, man, I know it's gonna The
26:37
Speaker 6: Dolphins have bigger names. I feel like Stevenson is a baller,
26:40
Speaker 6: but he's like a quiet one.
26:42
Speaker 3: People don't really respect him.
26:43
Speaker 6: You got the bigger names with mosterd a channel over here,
26:45
Speaker 6: but you got to stop the run man, get to
26:47
Speaker 6: the football, tackle, do all the necessary things.
26:50
Speaker 3: And defensive line, man, how do you do that?
26:53
Speaker 6: You're aggressive, you get a push, you got the linebackers
26:56
Speaker 6: fall around freely, and you're good to going to offensively
26:59
Speaker 6: get back to doing whatever Dad. In the second half
27:01
Speaker 6: against Denver, which is running that rock man, ken Walker
27:04
Speaker 6: ended up with a buck twenty on the day and
27:06
Speaker 6: Gino made some place of the air. So those are
27:08
Speaker 6: two things that they should focus on, no question about.
27:11
Speaker 5: I think early in the season you're still filling it out.
27:14
