11-9 H2 12th Man News, Fact or Fiction & Mike On The Mic · Chuck in the Morning

• 0:07
  Speaker 1: All right, 7 o'clock hour here on this Monday. Chuck
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: Anders and Chris with you. Sorry we're running a little
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: bit late. Blame it on Mike Benton. Blame it entirely
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: on Mike Benton. I do it regularly.
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: He's got broad shoulders. He can handle it. Let's just
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: all gather forces and blame everything on Mike Benton. Let's
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: get to your headlines before Greg Bell joins us in
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: a minute from now, so I better be snappy about it.
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: The Hawks do win over the Cardinals 17-3. Absolutely dominated.
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: The Arizona Cardinals offense yesterday in the contest, Arizona, as
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: my dry papers won't cooperate, held to under 200 total
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: yards in the contest and four for 13 on third downs,
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: which was a huge part of that. Gardner Minshew just
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: could not move the chains, and the Seahawks went to
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: improve to 5-4 on the season. Drew Locke did suffer
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: another injury. This went to his oblique. He says he's
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: going to be good for next week. We'll find out
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: more from Greg here in a moment. Next up, the
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: Las Vegas Raiders. But the next news story that could
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: happen for the Seahawks could come tomorrow. The NFL trading
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: deadline is tomorrow. There's already been a significant trade this morning.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: The Atlanta Falcons traded their best defensive player, Jesse Bates,
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: who might be first-team all-pro safety the way he's playing
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: this year, to the Jacksonville Jaguars for a second and
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: a fifth-round pick. College football, the Huskies' rally came up
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: short against Penn State Saturday. They lose 28-25, just could
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: not get the ball back in the fourth quarter when
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: they had the momentum. The college football poll is out
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: brand new. We got a brand new number one. It's
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: the Georgia Bulldogs barely ahead of undefeated Utah. Then it's
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: Notre Dame, UCLA, and Miami who lost to Notre Dame,
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: rounding out the top five. UW College basketball, they're in
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: action tonight against Mississippi Valley State at 7 p.m. And
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: as we discussed with Mike Benton, the Kraken, they are
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: off until Thursday because they traveled to Finland. Well, they'll
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: take on the Carolina Hurricanes this Thursday morning, our time today.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: The whole crew's been sent over to Helsinki. Should be
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: a lot of fun over there in Scandinavia. And then finally,
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: the Sounders' regular season comes to a close, and their
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: playoff hopes still alive. They're going to play in the
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: wild card game. 18 teams make the playoffs. They will
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: get into the best-of-three round if they can defeat Real
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: Salt Lake on November 19th.
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: So.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: Just getting into the dance is all they're trying to do,
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: and they'll do that with a victory over RSL. Vancouver
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: will be the team they face if they do win
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: the wild card matchup. All right, let's talk to Greg Bell.
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: As part of our continuing NFL coverage for the 12th man,
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: this is 12th Man News. Part of Chuck's daily visit

• 3:16
  Speaker 2: Morning, Greg. Good morning. Good morning.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: Well, that was a rather dutiful win. It was pretty
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: much just, let's not do anything fancy. Let's just go
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: out there and win the line of scrimmage and win
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: a football game. I mean, there wasn't anything fancy about
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: it yesterday, Greg.
• 3:37
  Speaker 5: No, and this is the recipe we keep talking about,
• 3:40
  Speaker 5: or I keep talking about. The offense doesn't turn the
• 3:43
  Speaker 5: ball over. The defense is going to win most games.
• 3:46
  Speaker 5: And as Drew Locke said after the game, when the
• 3:49
  Speaker 5: defense gives up three points, it's pretty hard to lose.
• 3:52
  Speaker 5: and he would have to have gone out of his
• 3:54
  Speaker 5: way to lose the game. He got hurt in the
• 3:57
  Speaker 5: process of doing it, but again, for the third time
• 4:00
  Speaker 5: in three games he's played for injured Sam Darnold, Drew
• 4:03
  Speaker 5: Locke did not turn the ball over. 19-28, 185 yards,
• 4:07
  Speaker 5: touchdown pass to Barner, and no turnovers. So for the season,
• 4:11
  Speaker 5: he's got five touchdown passes and no turnovers while throwing
• 4:15
  Speaker 5: a high 60% of completion rate.
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: That'll win most games because of the Seahawks' defense. I
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: thought Nick Evenwarrior was the absolute stud of the game.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: He took out Trey McBride on three different third downs,
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: and we all saw in the end zone the fourth
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: down when he broke up the pass to McBride from
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: behind in the end zone. But there were three other
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: times that he took out McBride and forced Minshew to
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: either throw somewhere else, take a sack, and then on
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: a fourth time on third down, he blitzed off the
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: edge and forced Minshew into an intentional grounding. After the
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: Cardinals went down the first drive, yet another opening drive
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: of an opponent moving down the field. Think Broncos, think Bears,
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: think most of the season there have been opponents scoring
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: early with long drives. Ten-play 89-yard drive to start the game.
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: After that, a field goal, of course. After that, they
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: went four stops in a row, and Nicky Morey had
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: something to do with every one of those third-down stops.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: And he did it from different positions. Sometimes he lined
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: up against McBride in the slot. Sometimes it was tight
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: on the end. Sometimes it was as an edge rusher,
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: blitzing free on Minshew. He's just incredible. He really does
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: make the defense do what it does. When you say
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: the Seahawks are the best defense in the league, Nicky
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: Maury is the best player on the best defense.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: Greg Bell with us, our Seahawks insider. Seahawks winning 17-3
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: over the Arizona Cardinals yesterday. to improve to five and
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: four on the season. So Drew suffers another injury. So
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: what's the latest with the oblique that he spent time
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: in the blue tent with?
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: Well, he was getting tests last night, and I assume
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: that was going to be including an MRI to see
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: if there's any structural damage to his oblique, which is
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: a muscle, of course. So it's most likely a strain.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: He got it in the third quarter, second play of
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: the drive. He rolled out to the right away from Sweat,
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: the linebacker, and then he threw back across the middle
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: of the field. So he's running right and threw to
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: his left back across the middle, across his body and momentum.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: Incomplete pass, and after that pass, he reached for his side,
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: and you could see it was somewhat bothering him the
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: rest of the drive. He finished it, and he went
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: straight into the tent. When he got to the sideline,
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: he stayed in there a few minutes. Came back, I've
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: been my binoculars the whole time on him to watch
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: what was going on. He threw some passes, gave a
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: thumbs up and a nod, talked a little bit to
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: Jalen Milrow, then put his helmet on, came back out
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: in the game. Said he wasn't really affected. Once he
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: was out there playing, it's when he sat down on
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: the bench and he started feeling it. He didn't say
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: it was nothing, but he said, you know, the adrenaline
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: and everything else. Mike McDonald says it's up in the air.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: His coach's show comes on this morning, and he may
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: have more to say about that. Then he talks to
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: us at 3 o'clock today. But McDonald didn't say it
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: was not nothing either. So we'll see. We play, of course,
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: next Sunday in Las Vegas. It looks increasingly like what
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: we talked about last week, that the schedule is such
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: that they want to give Sam Darnold at least the
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: two games plus the buy-off. That would give him 19
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: days between getting hurt and then the practice week beginning
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: for November 28th against the 49ers. So even before kickoff yesterday,
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: I was thinking that Darnold was going to miss both
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: the Cardinals and the Raiders games, and that Locke would
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: have those two starts. So now, would that mean Jalen
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: Milrow has the start at the Raiders? That's what this
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: week will be all about.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: How many games have you covered where there's a chance
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: that one of three quarterbacks could start in the upcoming game?
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's unusual. Now that you ask me, T. Martin
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: started a Raiders season finale in San Diego back the
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: year after they won the Super Bowl in 2003. That
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: might be the last time they got down to a
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: third quarterback.
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: Greg Bell is with us, our Seahawks insider, and you
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: can get his coverage right there at 933kjr. com. And, of course,
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: joining us here on Chuck in the Mornings nearly every
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: day at 7.05. With running backs, I mean, yeah, I
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: get that they wanted to play this way, and 33
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: carries in the contest, and 120 yards, and more rush
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: attempts than pass attempts, but you still put just 17
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: points on the board, 3.6 yards per carry. I'm not
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: sure that's a formula that wins against good teams, but
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: it certainly was good enough to defeat the Arizona Cardinals
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: this what was your take on how they used the
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: running backs and how often they used the running backs?
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: Well, my surprise was Zach Charbonnet was the clear one. Yeah.
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: And Price was the clear two. I mean, Charbonnet got
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: more than half the snaps. 57% of the 38 of
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: the 67, while Price only got 24 snaps, 36%. And
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: it was Charbonnet who was getting the consecutive carries. It
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: was Charbonnet leading most of the drives. And then Price,
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: they would alternate enduring drives. Price ended up being the
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: leading receiver because of how good he was after the catch,
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: making guys miss. He made a couple linebackers just made
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: them look silly with head fakes after the catch on
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: short passes, 17- and 16-yard passes in particular. I'm thinking
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: about the first and second half. But Charbonnet looked like
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: he's all the way back to the point that he
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: may even be further ahead of Price in terms of
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: how much he was yesterday, in terms of how much
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: they use him. But I thought that would be flipped,
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: and I thought Price would be ahead of him and
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: be getting the ones reps and then they would use
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: Charbonnet as more of an inside zone guy. They had
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: Price running between the guards more than Charbonnet for most
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: of the game yesterday. Yeah, you're right about the yards
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: per carry, and they ran more than they threw because
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: they were ahead of the game the whole time. After
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: they took a 7-3 lead, they were unthreatened. I mean,
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: they could have won that game 7-3, and I think
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: they did feel threatened that the 7-3 lead wouldn't be enough. So, yes,
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: I agree with you that that's not a formula to
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: win against better teams, but they didn't want to expose
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: Drew Locke to more than they needed to. They didn't
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: want to have him throw more than they needed to,
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: and then once he, at the end of the third quarter,
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: had the oblique thing, it was basically just handoff. He
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: did throw four passes in the fourth quarter, but... The
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: soccer term, Jackson, Feltz, and Anders would appreciate it, is
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: they parked the bus. And they knew that Arizona wasn't
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: going to score on them.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: No sacks. Zabel returning to left guard for Quentin Nelson yesterday.
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: I mean, is that a reflection on Drew getting rid
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: of the ball? Is that a reflection on the Arizona defense?
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: Is that a reflection on the offensive line back in
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: its original form just function better?
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: I think it was a function of them playing Arizona,
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: and it was a function of they didn't expose Drew
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: Locke to just deep drop backs and chuck the ball
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: as far as he could. He didn't throw the ball
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: down the field a whole lot. He got the ball
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: out quickly. They were, like I said, it was somewhat
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: of an offensive game plan like Week 18 at San
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: Francisco last year, like the Super Bowl. Our defense is
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: going to win the game. Just don't screw it up, offense.
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: That's basically what happened. A couple great Just magician punts
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: by Michael Dixon to begin the game. 60 yards and
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: a 50-some yarder that just joy-sticked down at the one-yard line. And, okay, defense,
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: you take care of the rest. Cardinals, good luck trying
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: to go 99 yards against these guys. That's basically how
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: they played Week 18 to win one seed in the
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: division last year against the 49ers. That's basically how they
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: played the Super Bowl, kicking a ton of field goals.
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: That's how they played yesterday, so... While it helped, and
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: the results are great, and it's going to be a
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: boost for Anthony Bradford. I talked to him in the
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: locker room yesterday. I think it was a confluence of
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: a bunch of things that conspired to make it look
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: better than maybe it really was.
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: And the barnyard play was back. I don't think I'd
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: do anything else.
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: Unconsecutive snap. Yeah.
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: I don't think I'd do anything else on third and one,
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: fourth and one, than go to that play. They can't
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: stop it. Nobody stops it.
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: Well, I... I can't remember them doing it on consecutive
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: snaps before. They did it on second and one from
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: the two. And we all, at first, in the press
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: box area, go, they're going to do it from the
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: two for the first time. I know they're trying to
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: get the first down. And then they did it from
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: first and goal to one on the very next snap.
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: They brought Ola with Timmy and Bobby Hart and practice
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: squad tackle in as the extra new fullbacks and had
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: those two offensive linemen push the back of Barner. They
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: didn't quite need too much of the push on either
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: one of those, but Yeah, a new wrinkle from Fleury,
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: and they use it on consecutive plays for, I think,
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: the first time since Barner started doing this. And then
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: they did it one other time for a conversion on
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: third down, too.
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: I know it's a win, so you probably let this
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: just go under the bridge, but was there any talk
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: from coaches or players about how terrible the officiating was yesterday?
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: No, especially after a win. They're smart enough to not
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: want to get fined. There were some people that were...
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: kind of scratching their heads, didn't talk on the record,
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: but just mumbling about. I mean, the penalty enforcement on
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: Sandell's late hit, they enforced that like it was back
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: at the start of the snap or dead ball before
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: the play and negating an offside. And usually a live
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: ball foul is adjudicated the same as defense's live ball foul,
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: and they offset each other even if the penalty is different.
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: That one in particular, the way they did that was weird.
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: And then the forward progress thing is just a cop-out.
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: When they get on the thing and say, oh, his
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: forward progress was stopped, they do that so that they
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: can't be subject to video replay review. Because if the Seahawks,
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: Mike McDonald would have thrown a challenge flag in one
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: second and would have won that challenge on the fumble
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: by McBride. He was just going forward, and the ball
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: got punched, and Ernest Jones punched the ball out. A
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: garden-variety fumble. Yeah. And... And they used the term forward
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: progress on a guy who never went backward. His forward
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: progress was never stopped. And that was the cop out
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: to keep a replay review. I thought that was just
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: made up might be the term for that. I don't
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: know what that was.
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and just so I don't sound like a homer, A.J.
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: Barner didn't catch that touchdown pass either. And they went
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: to the review board and came back with the wrong
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: call again. I mean, it wasn't just the guys on
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: the field, the guys in the booth. Virgil did not
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: catch that pass on the sidelines. I mean, it was
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: just one. I don't think Job was a pass interference
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: on McBride. I mean, it was just one bad call
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: after another yesterday on both sides.
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I did think Job. Oh, did you? Well, if
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: you put your hands on a receiver, even if he
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: acts or he falls down, you're going to get the penalty.
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: That's just how this league is. But the problem is
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: becoming that the league is so in bed with the
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: betting and the fantasy apps. They've just gone diving all in,
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: like most leagues have, for the advertising dollars and the revenue.
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: When you start getting stuff like this, or what happened
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: in the Denver-Carolina game when It appeared Sean Payton didn't
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: throw the challenge flag on a disputed, tipped-up-in-the-air interception. But
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: then they gave it to him anyway, even though he
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: looked like he threw the flag after the next play began,
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: which is against the protocol. Then you start wondering, wait,
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: what's going on here? Who's influencing what? There's a lot
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: of skepticism and cynicism about why some of these calls
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: get missed. And the league invited it themselves, how they
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: do what they do with the betting and the fantasy side.
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: Last minute, we'll have more time, obviously, to discuss this tomorrow,
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: but NFL trade deadline is tomorrow. Anything that you're hearing
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: that the Seahawks may or may not do?
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: Well, I still think they could make a relatively minor
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: add to running back. I don't think Jonathan Taylor's coming
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: for two top draft picks and $ 18 million a year
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: for the next couple years of his contract that they'd inherit.
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: But I wouldn't surprise me if it was a lower-tier
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: running back perhaps coming of depth. Wide receiver's interesting. Torrey
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: Horton took the role of Rashid Shaheed, who was out
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: again yesterday. It was the lowest production day, 51 yards
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: of Smith and Jigba's season so far. The NFL's leading receiver.
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: Ten targets, seven catches, but just 51 yards, which will
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: give you an example of what the game plan was
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: for Locke, throw on the ball quickly and get the
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: ball out of risk. But they're not flawless. And in
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: the last four years, when John Schneider has seen needs
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: and Mike McDonald has seen holes in that they need
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: to shore up to get to the playoffs, they have
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: done it. Back to Leonard Williams and Rasheed Shaheed and
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: Ernest Jones. And that's what they do. So it wouldn't
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: surprise me. But I don't know if it's going to
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: be a headliner of the all-pro Quinton Nelson ilk. By
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: the way, it was interesting after the game that Mike
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: McDonald said that Nelson has not had his surgery yet.
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: It's a minor procedure, is what he said Friday out
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: of nowhere, that Nelson needs on his knee, that it
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: was an issue that he had coming from the Colts,
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: which brings you to the specter of damaged goods that
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: the Seahawks got in a trade, but the Seahawks did
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: pass him in his physical, so that's on them. But
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure why he hasn't had the surgery yet,
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: and I was thinking he would be the guy that
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: would miss the next two games and use the bye
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: to get better and come back, but perhaps it might
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: be longer than that if he hasn't had his procedure yet.
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: All right, man. Well, 10 o'clock today, you're going to
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: break it all down?
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll have a bunch of the locker room audio
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: that I had talking to Anthony Bradford about, so what
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: has this league been like? You've been benched, told they
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: don't need you, and now they need you. And he
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: chuckled and said, yeah, this is the first time I've
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: had to deal with the business of the NFL before.
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: A couple of Jadarian Price I talked to in the
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: locker room. You'll hear audio from all that. Tons that
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: I got in the locker room after the game. We'll
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: hear that and more at 10 o'clock. All right.
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: Sounds good. Thank you, man. We appreciate it.
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: Thanks. Happy Monday.
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: Greg Bell, our Seahawks insider, joining us here. You can
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: follow him at gbellseattle on X. And, of course, his
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: coverage now is our coverage here at KJR. Nothing has
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: improved more overnight than our website coverage of the Seahawks that...
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: We're lucky.
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: So if you want to check it out, he's got
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: reports on everything from yesterday there at 93.3 KJR.com. Coming
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: up next, we'll play some Factor Fiction at 7.35. We
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: think Chris has a good pick for you here at
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: 7.35 here today. Also coming up, the NFL trade deadline
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: is tomorrow, and there are two monster names worth monitoring.
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: Sports Radio 93.3 KJR FM.
• 19:32
  Speaker 6: All right, back to fiction.
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: Coming up at 735, Christopher Kidd's pick. One of the
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: two of us kids got to get a win one
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: of these days, so we'll do that at 7 35
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: in the meantime NFL trading deadline day is tomorrow it'll
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: be a one o'clock hour time so most of our
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: show tomorrow will probably be dedicated to this very major
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: event will the Seahawks do anything We'll see. Remains to
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: be seen. Wouldn't be surprised if they did. But certainly
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: we're going to see some moves. We've already seen one
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: this morning. Now that teams have the last bit of
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: information that they required to either bolster their desires to move,
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: stand put, sell, buy. Well, we're getting the last games,
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: the last remnants of that information here tonight with the
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: Vikings taking on the Buffalo Bills. And so I'm expecting
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: a lot of moves. We got one this morning. Jesse
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: Bates is now a Jacksonville Jaguar traded from the Atlanta
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: Falcons just this morning for a two and a five.
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: But there are two big names out there that are
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: going to be discussed quite a bit in the next
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: 24-plus hours. Jonathan Taylor, the running back of the Indianapolis Colts.
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: Sounds like the Colts are willing to move him. Sounds
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: like their asking price has been really high. But, man, Anders,
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: if you're a Minnesota Vikings team that, you know, doesn't
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: necessarily want to bail on your quarterback situation or the
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: New York Giants. There are several teams out there that
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: might be able, with great defenses, to supplement their attack
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: by having that Mike McDonald formula. If we can just
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: get a top-tier running back with a great defense... um
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: maybe we could do something maybe we can maybe we
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: can actually be dangerous in the playoffs and Jonathan Taylor
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: is a name that I suspect is going to get
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: moved yeah I don't know why he wouldn't.
• 21:26
  Speaker 6: I don't either especially with you know that much um
• 21:30
  Speaker 6: on the salary cap table now There could be questions
• 21:34
  Speaker 6: of how much gets absorbed by the Colts versus whoever
• 21:38
  Speaker 6: trades for him. That would add more into the value
• 21:41
  Speaker 6: and all that stuff. All those cap gymnastics are going
• 21:43
  Speaker 6: to become a thing because he has a significant number
• 21:46
  Speaker 6: that goes against the cap, and most teams are going
• 21:48
  Speaker 6: to have to find a way to make that work
• 21:50
  Speaker 6: that maybe they didn't envision in the beginning.
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: Of the year. I can't imagine. I mean, Indianapolis is
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: well into their rebuild. Yes. I can't imagine that they're
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: going to, of all people, keep a veteran running back making—
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: top dollar at his position, but we shall see. The
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: other name, just quickly, Justin Herbert. The 0-8 charges are
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: probably going to move a number of players between now
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: and tomorrow. would they move a quarterback that clearly is
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: broken right now? And I don't know if Mike McDaniel
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: broke him or if his girlfriend broke him, but he
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: has never been bad. He's not been as great as
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: what a lot of people were waiting and waiting and
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: waiting for him to be, but he's never been terrible.
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: He is now terrible. He is officially terrible. Will a
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings team, a Baltimore Ravens team?
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: Somebody out there make a move for... a Justin Herbert
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: tomorrow before the trade deadline comes. It seems like there
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: should be some interest, but obviously he's not playing very
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: good football right now. And if he goes to another team,
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: he seems to have trouble adapting to new systems, even
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: though he's described as the most intelligent football player in
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: the entire league. So we'll see. But two guys that
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: we'll certainly talk a lot about tomorrow. Let's find out
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: what's going on with our Factor Fiction. We're set to go.
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: Glad you're with us.
• 23:11
  Speaker 4: It's your shot at our weekly $ 1, 000 and the $ 10, 000
• 23:16
  Speaker 4: grand prize.
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: It's Fact or Fiction.
• 23:19
  Speaker 4: Proudly presented by Lucky Eagle Casino and Hotel, where every
• 23:23
  Speaker 4: day feels lucky. Fact or Fiction is on. Sports Radio 93.3,
• 23:27
  Speaker 4: KJR FM.
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: All right, nice job by Anders. Anders starting to pick
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: up the slack where Chris and I are not here
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: as of late. My trend continues. I'll say this about
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: my picks this year. I'm not keeping you on the
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: edge of your seat. They're blowouts one way or the other,
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: that's for sure.
• 23:46
  Speaker 6: You know a lot of the times before halftime what it's.
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: Going to be.
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: I'm either right on it or way off of it. Kidd,
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: on the other hand, has got to get going as well.
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: So he's got the pick today to get us started
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: this week. Where are you going? Going to go Monday
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: Night Football? Monday Night Football it is.
• 24:04
  Speaker 7: Go ahead and give me the Buffalo Bills favorite on
• 24:07
  Speaker 7: the road.
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: Against the Minnesota Vikings, minus three.
• 24:10
  Speaker 7: So if you agree to that, you're going to text
• 24:12
  Speaker 7: in FACT to 49451. Basically, I just need, we all need,
• 24:17
  Speaker 7: Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills to win by four
• 24:20
  Speaker 7: or more on the road.
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: They're going to, right? They have to. They're going to
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: smash them tonight. The Vikings are fraudulent.
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: And I know they play great defense, and they do.
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: And I don't overuse the word great. I take great
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: pride in that. It's just a great part about me
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: that I find great. That's what great people do. They
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: don't overuse the word great.
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: That's great.
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah. But they can't stop Josh Allen, and they can't score.
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: I think this is a terrific pick. If you're wrong, kid,
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: maybe the fact or fiction gods just hate your guts.
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: You didn't think that last night? No, I didn't think
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: that was a great pick last night.
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: Oh. Okay.
• 25:06
  Speaker 7: Fair enough.
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: I didn't think it was a bad pick, but I
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: don't think it was as good as this pick.
• 25:10
  Speaker 6: Yeah. I have more confidence in this one. The Bills
• 25:15
  Speaker 6: are the better team. This is the classic, I'm picking
• 25:17
  Speaker 6: the better team here. And it's only favored by a
• 25:20
  Speaker 6: field goal. I know it's three, not two and a half.
• 25:22
  Speaker 6: Would have loved the hook there.
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: That would have been great.
• 25:24
  Speaker 6: But I still believe they're going to win by a touchdown, possibly.
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: I think so.
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: I think so. But all that matters is what you
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: think the listener, as Chris mentioned. If you agree, you're
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: going to text FACT to 49451. If you disagree, you're
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: going to text FICTION to 49451. If you're right, we
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: enter your name into a drawing. We do it every week.
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: $ 1, 000 in cash on the line. Every time we play,
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: you can play. Every time you're right, we enter your
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: name into that drawing for $ 1, 000 in cash. And if
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: you're playing that much, you might as well go for
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: the gusto. There's a $ 10, 000 jackpot awaiting the winner. of
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: Factor Fiction. The winner will be the person with the
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: most correct picks this football season in playing Factor Fiction.
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: It's all brought to you by Lucky Eagle Casino and Hotel.
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: Lucky Eagle Casino, where every day feels lucky.
• 26:12
  Speaker 4: Eagles out.
• 26:14
  Speaker 6: I also realized, just so everyone knows, I started the
• 26:17
  Speaker 6: window a little late, but it is open now, so
• 26:19
  Speaker 6: if you haven't gotten a bounce back, please send it
• 26:22
  Speaker 6: in one more time and you should get one. So
• 26:23
  Speaker 6: that's my apologies as the Factor Fiction... commissioner here oh
• 26:28
  Speaker 6: um but you'll get one just uh send it in
• 26:30
  Speaker 6: one more time i do apologize for that one but
• 26:33
  Speaker 6: uh it's open now just be rest assured all right kids.
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: Taking the buffalo bills tonight he's gonna lay the three
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: even though it's on the road against the minnesota vikings
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: that means the bills have to win by four points
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: or more for him to be right if you think
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: he's right text fact to 49451 if you think he's
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: full of crap uh go ahead and text fiction to
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: 49451 And you will be playing Factor Fiction. Your next
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: chance to play comes up at 1135 with Greg Bell.
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: And I don't know, is Jessamyn back or is she
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: still there, Travis? Should be. So 1135, your next chance
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: to play some Factor Fiction. All right, coming up next
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: on our radio program, it's Mike on the mic. Yes,
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: we'll hear from the head coach after yesterday's win over
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals. Sports Radio 93.3 KJRFM. only had one
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: catch for nine yards, but yeah, pretty clear that the
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: game plan was we're going to win this with defense,
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: we're not going to turn the ball over, and at
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: least against this opponent, we can just run the football
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: without putting it at risk, and the best guy for
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: the job is Zach Charbonnet. Here is Mike McDonald on
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: Keeping It Running.
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: Really happy for Zach, happy for JD. Definitely felt Zach
• 27:44
  Speaker 3: and his power and the ability to break tackles and
• 27:48
  Speaker 3: on the sideline there, even though we got the penalty
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: to move us back. But I'm really just happy for him,
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: you know, just to put himself in that position. And
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: I think we're just going to continue to get better
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: with more reps and more experience.
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: He just likes that. He likes him.
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: He wants him to be the guy because he trusts
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: him not to fumble the football. I mean, let's face it.
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: Ken Walker's not here because Mike McDonald frequently– went to
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: Zach Charbonnet and not Ken Walker in crucial situations a
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: year ago, and especially before the end of the season.
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: Zach Charbonnet was the guy that Mike McDonald trusted more
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: than Ken Walker, and now that he's healthy, I know
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: what we heard going into the game. This is the
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: game where Price should get his 20 carries, his 20 touches.
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: As soon as I saw him return the game's first kick,
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: I'm like, nope, it's going to be Charbonnet, and it
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: was Charbonnet yesterday.
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 28:45
  Speaker 6: For whatever reason, they really, really, really want Zach Charbonnet
• 28:50
  Speaker 6: to be the guy.
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: I think it's just that they trust him not to fumble.
• 28:54
  Speaker 4: I really do.
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that might be all it is.
• 28:57
  Speaker 6: But Mike McDonald.
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: And get tough yards.
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: Because Ken Walker never fumbled. No, it's true. He never fumbled.
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: Never fumbled. Literally never fumbled.
• 29:05
  Speaker 6: But Mike McDonald on the sideline is not the rah-rah,
• 29:09
  Speaker 6: let's go, I'm going to high-five my guys. Oh, I'm
• 29:11
  Speaker 6: getting super excited when they make a big play. He's
• 29:14
  Speaker 6: normally very stoic. But the play he was talking about
• 29:17
  Speaker 6: in that clip that we just heard where they got
• 29:19
  Speaker 6: the penalty to move them back after a big couple
• 29:22
  Speaker 6: breaking tackles from Zach Charbonnet. Did you see how fired
• 29:25
  Speaker 6: up he was for Zach Charbonnet?
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: No, I did not.
• 29:28
  Speaker 6: You need to go back and watch that. I was like,
• 29:30
  Speaker 6: is that Mike McDonald doing that? I thought it was
• 29:33
  Speaker 6: an assistant. But it was Mike McDonald. That is how
• 29:36
  Speaker 6: excited he is and how much he wants Zach Charbonnet
• 29:39
  Speaker 6: to succeed. That was eye-opening to me, and I think
• 29:41
  Speaker 6: it explains everything you just said about they really want
• 29:44
  Speaker 6: him to succeed for whatever reason.
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: You know what he was saying that whole time he
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: was celebrating?
• 29:48
  Speaker 6: I was right!
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah! That's what he was saying the whole time.
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: Zach keeps on running. He moves those chains, baby. Zach,
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: keep on running.
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: He breaks more tackles. All right, so Zach Charbonnet, RB1
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: for now. Now, look, I mean, for the game plan,
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: for the opponent, worked well.
• 30:16
  Speaker 4: I don't know.
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: I don't know about this combo against great teams, great defenses.
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: And I don't know about this game plan in the
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: tournament when all you play are good to great teams
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: with good to great defenses. You're going to have to
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: have your quarterback. be a little bigger of a factor.
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: But for yesterday, it's all you needed. It's what you needed.
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: And I never felt at any point during the contest
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: that that game was in doubt. It was under control
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: and Zach Charbonnet played a significant role. So did A.J.
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: Barner.
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: The barnyard was back. They used it three different times.
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: It was successful all three times. He also had a
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: touchdown catch in the end zone as well. Here's Mike
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: McDonald on his tight end.
• 31:01
  Speaker 3: We love him and we, and we trust him and
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: we understand what type of player he is. We can
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: kind of feel the frustration with him of like, you know,
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: of what he expects from himself, but just, you know,
• 31:11
  Speaker 3: no flinch, just keep attacking it, you know, and he's
• 31:13
  Speaker 3: a leader on our offense and he provides so much,
• 31:15
  Speaker 3: so much great energy. So when he's on his game,
• 31:17
  Speaker 3: it really helps our offense. And so for him to
• 31:19
  Speaker 3: have that production is really cool to, you know, to prevent,
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: to get into some of those short, short yard situations
• 31:24
  Speaker 3: where we can run the sneak is kind of galvanizing,
• 31:26
  Speaker 3: you know, energize the group. And then, put the ball
• 31:28
  Speaker 3: away in the red zone when they take jacks away
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: is uh to have another option down there is is
• 31:33
  Speaker 3: really helpful.
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah i like them a lot too and i don't
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: think you use them enough no and i would like
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: to see more of that and right now there's a
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: we're down in elijah arroyo who may have never been
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: a part of this but i think the plan was
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: to have a couple tight ends a little more significantly
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: play this year um we've got the trading deadline tomorrow
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: you know A lot of people want a running back.
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: A lot of people want a wide receiver. They don't
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: think our wide receiver depth, there's not a wide receiver
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: two on this team. What about a tight end two?
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: What about, I mean, right now I'm staring at Dallas
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: Goddard rumors. What about a Dallas Goddard to add? Just,
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: I mean, not certainly a number two type target. As
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: a matter of fact, I don't even think he starts
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: above Barner.
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: No.
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: But to give you an extra dimension, to give you
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: an extra reliable pair of hands and a guy that
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: plays hard.
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: Plays through the whistle and can run block too. I mean,
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: Saubert's pretty much just a run block guy. Goddard can
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: do a few things out there. Is that an interesting
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: move for you?
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 32:40
  Speaker 6: I think if nothing else, it gives you another guy
• 32:42
  Speaker 6: that whoever's a quarterback can throw to, because you saw,
• 32:46
  Speaker 6: I mean, when J.D. Price is your number one receiver and,
• 32:51
  Speaker 6: In terms of yards, like you're going to need more
• 32:54
  Speaker 6: than that most times than more times than not. Like
• 32:56
  Speaker 6: you have JSN obviously having a historic season yet again.
• 32:59
  Speaker 6: I think A.J. Barner is going to get better throughout
• 33:01
  Speaker 6: the year. Rashid Shaheed's injury is really concerning to me.
• 33:05
  Speaker 6: I don't know if that's that short term of a thing.
• 33:08
  Speaker 6: And Torrey Horton just hasn't stepped up into that role
• 33:10
  Speaker 6: since it's been there. And Cooper Cup just isn't that
• 33:13
  Speaker 6: guy anymore. You need another pass catcher that's at least
• 33:15
  Speaker 6: somewhat reliable just to give you another option.
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: We did not have an explosive play yesterday. Did you
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: know that? I did not, actually. That rarely happens in
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: a football game. We did not have a 15-yard run
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: or more because he got called back. And we did
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: not have a 20-yard pass or more and won the
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: game 17-3. And, yeah, you can win against the Arizona
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: Cardinals playing that way when you have a great defense
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: like the Seahawks do. But if this is the way
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: you want to play, if you do want to run
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: the football— and you do want to go higher percentage,
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: and you think the only way you can lose is
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: if your quarterback turns the ball over, why not get
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: a guy that only goes five to ten yards down
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: the field? Sure-handed. Maybe that is the better direction rather
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: than bringing a wide receiver to, or an overpay on
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: a running back at this stage in the process. I
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: don't know if it's what I would do, But I
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: think it at least is worth conversation.
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: So we'll see if the Seahawks do anything between now
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: and tomorrow's trading deadline. But it is a 17-3 win
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: over the Arizona Cardinals. Hugh Millen is going to be
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: joining us next. Our Monday morning quarterback session from 8
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: to 9.40 this morning. Can't wait to get our QB1' s thoughts.
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: on everything going on with the Hawks. Also want to
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: let you know that there is a little bit of
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: breaking news. It is official. College football is going to
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: go to a 24-team college football playoff in time for
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: the 2027 season. It's a stupid idea.
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: All right, coming up next, QB1, Hugh Millen, Monday Morning
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: Quarterback on KJR.
