- 0:31Speaker 1: here's your host, Nasa Chubby. Welcome into a special edition
- 0:35Speaker 1: of Hawk Talk. We are live from Unique, Germany. Me myself,
- 0:40Speaker 1: Michael Bumpus. We're here with the team. It's been a
- 0:43Speaker 1: crazy week. We've been doing shows at the pub. We
- 0:45Speaker 1: got a lot of cool events going on down here.
- 0:46Speaker 1: And we took over a pub called Augustine or Stamhouse.
- 0:49Speaker 1: Took it over, took it over. Yeah, he had Wyman
- 0:51Speaker 1: and bump We had all kinds of events. John Schneider
- 0:54Speaker 1: stopped by a lot of people. Different people stopped by.
- 0:56Speaker 1: It's been a crazy, fun week down here. The players
- 0:58Speaker 1: are excited. There was no jet lag walking around the hotel.
- 1:01Speaker 1: Guys were up and anxious and ready to go. So
- 1:04Speaker 1: it's been a fun week. We still got a little
- 1:05Speaker 1: bit more for you, but for the team we are playing.
- 1:08Speaker 1: It is their international market, but if you look around
- 1:11Speaker 1: this town, I'm telling you it was nothing but twelve.
- 1:13Speaker 1: So let's get to what's on tap. What's on tap?
- 1:20Speaker 1: That Tampa Bay buccaneer. It's like I just alluded to
- 1:23Speaker 1: it to their international market, But you're right, because it's
- 1:27Speaker 1: only Seaff fans around. Here's a wild When we went
- 1:29Speaker 1: to the pub, are you kidding me? Man? It was
- 1:31Speaker 1: d and those guys were rowdy, they were loud, they're
- 1:34Speaker 1: ready to go. It was a Thursday, but it felt
- 1:36Speaker 1: like it was the night before again. Yeah, no, it
- 1:38Speaker 1: felt And there was a couple Tampa Bay fans that
- 1:41Speaker 1: wandered in there and they were trying to start some
- 1:43Speaker 1: stuff and they were just drowned out by Seaaff fans.
- 1:45Speaker 1: So it's been a it's been a cool atmosphere down here.
- 1:47Speaker 1: But talking about these Bucks, they're an interesting team. They're
- 1:50Speaker 1: tied for first in the NFC South because quite frankly,
- 1:53Speaker 1: right now, no one really wants to win that division
- 1:54Speaker 1: right now. Bump at four and five. They started off great,
- 1:57Speaker 1: beat the Cowboys in the Saints two and oh, and
- 2:00Speaker 1: then things kind of started to slide. They lost the Packers,
- 2:02Speaker 1: they got lost to the Chiefs, beat the Falcons, but
- 2:05Speaker 1: then lost three in a row, Steelers, Panthers, Ravens, and
- 2:08Speaker 1: they just had to come from behind victory last week
- 2:10Speaker 1: against the Rams, snapping that three game losing streak. And
- 2:13Speaker 1: that game was ugly dogs. Yeah, it was ugly man.
- 2:17Speaker 1: Tom Brady gets to the podium and it was like
- 2:20Speaker 1: a sigh of relief. He's like, man, I can't believe
- 2:23Speaker 1: he got that done. He goes, that was bleeping awesome.
- 2:26Speaker 1: You got the goat talking like that. He knows that
- 2:29Speaker 1: he snuck away with one. On the other side, Jalen
- 2:31Speaker 1: Ramsey is expressing how he feels about how he doesn't
- 2:35Speaker 1: think there are any dogs on this team or whatnot.
- 2:37Speaker 1: But no, no, that was cool man. The game feature
- 2:39Speaker 1: fifteen punts and both teams combined to go just thirteen
- 2:43Speaker 1: up thirty six on third downs. That is never good.
- 2:46Speaker 1: There are only two touchdowns in that game. The first
- 2:48Speaker 1: one came on the sixty nine yard pass to who else,
- 2:51Speaker 1: Cooper Cup. That guy always gets his. The Rams were
- 2:54Speaker 1: control for most of this game. They were up thirteen
- 2:56Speaker 1: to sixteen going into the fourth quarter, but things got
- 2:59Speaker 1: interesting late. Yeah, you know kidding, So thirteen nine last,
- 3:02Speaker 1: he said. Bucks drive all the way down to the
- 3:04Speaker 1: Rams six yard line, but they couldn't convert, turning the
- 3:07Speaker 1: ball over and downs. The Rams just needed one first
- 3:09Speaker 1: down to dice it. It was over. It was a rap.
- 3:11Speaker 1: They couldn't do that. They go three and out. Given
- 3:14Speaker 1: Tom Brady one more chance. It's Tom Brady, man. You
- 3:16Speaker 1: don't give Tom Brady another chance at the end of games. Yes,
- 3:19Speaker 1: there's only forty four seconds on the clock, but Brady
- 3:22Speaker 1: marched the Bucks down the field on a six place
- 3:24Speaker 1: sixty yard drive, ending with a touchdown to former Udub
- 3:27Speaker 1: tight end kadd for the game winning score. Brady went
- 3:30Speaker 1: five to six for sixty yards on the game winning drive,
- 3:32Speaker 1: recording his fifty fifth come from behind win game winning drive.
- 3:37Speaker 1: Excuse me in The forty five year old avoided his
- 3:40Speaker 1: first four game losing streaks since two thousand and two,
- 3:43Speaker 1: and they beat the Rams for the first time and
- 3:45Speaker 1: four tries. His Brady's been in Tampa, so box scor
- 3:48Speaker 1: isn't pretty. And it's what jumped out to me about
- 3:50Speaker 1: Brady through it fifty eight times, but he only threw
- 3:53Speaker 1: for two hundred and eighty yards. And that arm is
- 3:55Speaker 1: solar fifty eight times and only threw for two eighty.
- 3:58Speaker 1: There's a lot of checkdowns, there's a lot of slants,
- 4:00Speaker 1: letter intermediate routes, that's a lot of Stafford. On the
- 4:04Speaker 1: other side, he had a rough game two thirteen to
- 4:06Speaker 1: twenty seven for one sixty five and one touchdown. Darrel
- 4:09Speaker 1: Henderson led all rushes with fifty six jars on twelve carries.
- 4:12Speaker 1: Not a great day. And of course Cooper Cup led
- 4:15Speaker 1: all the receivers with one hundred and twenty seven yards
- 4:17Speaker 1: and eight receptions one touchdowns. The Rams are three and
- 4:20Speaker 1: five on the season, and now the Bucks are four
- 4:22Speaker 1: and five and are tied for first place in the
- 4:26Speaker 1: NFC South, which is the new NFC East, because for
- 4:28Speaker 1: a while they East was garbage. Yeah no, and that's
- 4:32Speaker 1: the crazy thing, you know. Obviously we kind of poke
- 4:34Speaker 1: fun at them because they have a losing record of
- 4:35Speaker 1: the leading the Vision a lot of different where the
- 4:37Speaker 1: Seahawks right right now. But obviously, as we know, Bump,
- 4:39Speaker 1: it's Tom Brady right He's still the greatest of all time,
- 4:42Speaker 1: and they still have dogs on that team. So it'll
- 4:44Speaker 1: be a fun matchup, you know, just seeing who can
- 4:46Speaker 1: handle the travel aspect of this trip, flying all the
- 4:48Speaker 1: way across the country. Seahawks too a lot farther obviously,
- 4:51Speaker 1: but it is what it is. When we look at
- 4:53Speaker 1: this head to head matchup with stock offense right now,
- 4:56Speaker 1: the Seahawks offense is just consistent. They're just absolutely consistent,
- 4:59Speaker 1: and honest, I would assume that these numbers would be
- 5:01Speaker 1: a little higher, but they're just so they're so balanced
- 5:04Speaker 1: and consistent that they don't they're not crazy. Leading rush
- 5:07Speaker 1: or pass through the eleventh ranked offense in the National
- 5:10Speaker 1: Football League averaging three hundred and fifty nine yards a game,
- 5:12Speaker 1: eleventh ranked rush offense, fourteenth ranked pass offense. But the
- 5:16Speaker 1: one I love the most is their fourth in points
- 5:18Speaker 1: per game, averaging twenty six point eight and they're putting
- 5:21Speaker 1: points on people. During this four game win streak, they're
- 5:23Speaker 1: beating teams by double digits. So it's been it's been
- 5:25Speaker 1: a lot, and you look on the offense On the
- 5:27Speaker 1: other side, Bucks have the nineteenth ranked passing offense. They
- 5:30Speaker 1: don't run the ball thirty second dead last sixty yards
- 5:35Speaker 1: per game. That's wow, that's typo. No, no, no, that's right,
- 5:38Speaker 1: that's we'll talk. Ken Walker had sixty yards on the
- 5:40Speaker 1: last two drives against the Cardinals last week and their
- 5:45Speaker 1: fifth their fifth and passing offense giving or going for
- 5:47Speaker 1: two seventy one a game. And part of that just
- 5:50Speaker 1: because they throw the dang pill so much. They can't
- 5:52Speaker 1: run the ball. So Brady's you know, he's throwing forty
- 5:54Speaker 1: five times a game, So the staffs are definitely gonna
- 5:56Speaker 1: skew that way. And they're just twenty fifth in points
- 5:59Speaker 1: per game at eighteen. They don't do well on third downs.
- 6:02Speaker 1: They have go three and out a lot as well,
- 6:03Speaker 1: So this offense isn't hitting on all cylinders. But they
- 6:06Speaker 1: have weapons and we'll get into so they're still daters. Yeah.
- 6:09Speaker 1: The Bucks defense is what holds them down. Their ninth overall,
- 6:12Speaker 1: giving up three to thirteen three and thirteen yards per game.
- 6:15Speaker 1: There are the twenty third against the run, giving up
- 6:18Speaker 1: a buck twenty five, and there are fifth against the past,
- 6:21Speaker 1: given up one eighty seven and they only give up
- 6:23Speaker 1: eighteen points per game. So if there's something that this
- 6:26Speaker 1: team is going to lean on them is going to
- 6:27Speaker 1: be Tom Brady's arm, and then it's going to be
- 6:29Speaker 1: this defense on the other side. The Seahawks had the
- 6:31Speaker 1: twenty fourth ring defense not playing like the twenty fourth
- 6:33Speaker 1: ring defense the last three or four weeks, But this
- 6:36Speaker 1: is where they are right now. They're twenty seventh against
- 6:39Speaker 1: the run, giving up one hundred and thirty eight per game,
- 6:40Speaker 1: and then they are twentieth against the past giving up
- 6:42Speaker 1: two twenty five per game, also given up twenty four
- 6:45Speaker 1: points per game. These numbers are deceiving. The last three weeks,
- 6:49Speaker 1: they're giving up what twenty and eighty two yards per game,
- 6:51Speaker 1: which would make them the best defense in the league
- 6:55Speaker 1: above the forty nine ers to give up about twenty
- 6:57Speaker 1: and eighty five yards per game. So you look at
- 6:59Speaker 1: these numbers and you can get your assumptions right. But
- 7:04Speaker 1: I think this is what's true about these numbers. The
- 7:06Speaker 1: Bucks defense is really good and the Seahawks offense can
- 7:10Speaker 1: put up a lot of points. I'll look at that
- 7:12Speaker 1: and I say this should be a good matchup, no
- 7:14Speaker 1: question about it. The Seahawks defense is playing incredibly well
- 7:17Speaker 1: the last four weeks. You just alluded to their first
- 7:19Speaker 1: in yards per play when they given up four point
- 7:21Speaker 1: three yards. They're tied for first in nineteen sacks in
- 7:24Speaker 1: the last four weeks nineteen QBR opponents thirty one, that's second,
- 7:29Speaker 1: and then takeaways they have seven, that's tied for second,
- 7:32Speaker 1: and they're obviously four and o during this band. So
- 7:33Speaker 1: this team is balling out defensively. We know what the
- 7:36Speaker 1: Bucks can do, so it should be a fun matchup.
- 7:38Speaker 1: But these two teams have played in the recent future.
- 7:41Speaker 1: It's time to know the history. No your history. Seattle
- 7:46Speaker 1: leaks the all time series at nine to five. The
- 7:48Speaker 1: Seahawks have won two of the last three meetings, including
- 7:51Speaker 1: a thrilling forty to thirty four win during the twenty
- 7:53Speaker 1: nineteen season and Bump. I don't know if you remember this.
- 7:56Speaker 1: It ended with Jacob Polisher overtime touchdown in the end zone. Yes,
- 8:00Speaker 1: Jacob Polisher. He was starting and making plays for us
- 8:02Speaker 1: at the time, and honestly, this was Russell's best, probably
- 8:05Speaker 1: best statistical game of his career. Twenty nine for forty three,
- 8:09Speaker 1: three hundred seventy yards, five touchdowns, no interceptions, It was
- 8:13Speaker 1: back and forth game and kind of was who's gonna
- 8:15Speaker 1: score last, it was gonna win the game. Mike Abbans
- 8:17Speaker 1: balled out, so he's gonna guy. We're gonna talk about
- 8:19Speaker 1: one hundred and eighty yards, twelve receptions, one touchdown. So
- 8:21Speaker 1: I hope we didn't have that kind of day. But
- 8:24Speaker 1: what we loved from that game was lock again thirteen receptions,
- 8:27Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty two yards and two touchdowns. dCas
- 8:29Speaker 1: rookie had six receptions one hundred twenty three yards in
- 8:32Speaker 1: one touchdown. So hoping we can get some of that
- 8:36Speaker 1: love going on. But man, things are good out West.
- 8:40Speaker 1: What's the word? And the Seahawks or the NFC West
- 8:48Speaker 1: champs again, what's the word in the West? On Hot Talk?
- 8:53Speaker 1: What's the word? I'll tell you what the word is.
- 8:55Speaker 1: The Seahawks are sitting on top of the division at
- 8:58Speaker 1: six and three. Behind them, the Nine are four and four,
- 9:01Speaker 1: the Rams of three and five, and the Cardinals are
- 9:03Speaker 1: three and six. These guys are all in the first
- 9:05Speaker 1: place in the NFC West. Man, they are playing some
- 9:09Speaker 1: really good football and it is very convincing. Now the
- 9:12Speaker 1: Rams and the Bucks play last week, we talked about
- 9:15Speaker 1: that that's what's going on in the West. And then
- 9:17Speaker 1: the Cardinals lost to the Seahawks last week, and then
- 9:20Speaker 1: the forty nine Ers are on a five week Now
- 9:23Speaker 1: we talk about this NFC west Man. We're nine games
- 9:26Speaker 1: into this deal and this team is six and three,
- 9:28Speaker 1: And if you thought they would be here at this
- 9:30Speaker 1: point in time, good for you. I thought this team
- 9:32Speaker 1: would be competitive, but six and three I felt like
- 9:35Speaker 1: was asking for a lot. But obviously it's not asking
- 9:38Speaker 1: for a lot because this is where these guys are. Now.
- 9:40Speaker 1: The next four weeks are gonna be extremely important. You
- 9:42Speaker 1: got the Bucks, the Raiders, Rams, and the Panthers in
- 9:45Speaker 1: the next four weeks. Four games that this team can
- 9:47Speaker 1: play can win. Combine, these teams are eleven and twenty three.
- 9:51Speaker 1: Not a very good lineup, but this is the NFL
- 9:53Speaker 1: and you gotta show up and play anybody. You can't
- 9:56Speaker 1: take any of these teams lightly. Now, the last four
- 9:58Speaker 1: games is what's concerning. All games are concerning. But when
- 10:01Speaker 1: you break down the second half of the season, you
- 10:03Speaker 1: look at the last four you got the forty Nineers,
- 10:05Speaker 1: the Chiefs, the Jets, and the Rams. The Jets, folks
- 10:08Speaker 1: are concerning right now, which is wild. Now. We already
- 10:11Speaker 1: expected the Niners and the Chiefs and the Rams to
- 10:13Speaker 1: be concerning, but the Jets are playing really good football.
- 10:16Speaker 1: Those teams combine our nineteen and fourteen, so you can't
- 10:20Speaker 1: look past anybody. We're breaking it down. And the second
- 10:22Speaker 1: half of the seasons, the two parts you got, the
- 10:24Speaker 1: next four, you got the final four. It's looking it's
- 10:26Speaker 1: looking good for these Hawks and good and tough at
- 10:28Speaker 1: the same time. No, I mean you, like you said,
- 10:31Speaker 1: you can't overlook anybody, But at the same time, you
- 10:34Speaker 1: gotta beat the teams you're supposed to beat in The
- 10:36Speaker 1: Seahawks have been doing that lately, definitely really well. You know,
- 10:40Speaker 1: early on, I think they probably should have beat the Falcons.
- 10:42Speaker 1: I think they should have beat the Sames. We know
- 10:43Speaker 1: that now, but they took a while to get things
- 10:45Speaker 1: worked out. But they're here now. So as long as
- 10:47Speaker 1: you take care of business you're supposed to do the
- 10:48Speaker 1: next four weeks, things will be looking good. But let's
- 10:51Speaker 1: get back to these Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Man up, is
- 10:56Speaker 1: this man up? Un Hawk talk. He's the goat the
- 11:06Speaker 1: greatest of all time, Tom Brady. We have to start there.
- 11:09Speaker 1: We'd be remissed if we didn't. It's crazy to think
- 11:11Speaker 1: that this is Tom Brady's twenty third NFL season, and
- 11:15Speaker 1: it's already his third season as a member of the
- 11:17Speaker 1: Tampa Bay Buccaneers, with a couple of retirements mixed in there.
- 11:20Speaker 1: On the season, he's two sixty for three ninety eight
- 11:23Speaker 1: for twenty five hundred forty seven yards, ten touchdowns in
- 11:26Speaker 1: one interception, been sacked fourteen times. But you know this
- 11:29Speaker 1: team has been struggling offensively, but Brady's numbers are still
- 11:33Speaker 1: pretty good. I mettionally, he only has the one interception.
- 11:35Speaker 1: His twenty five forty seven passing yards that's a second
- 11:38Speaker 1: in the National Football League, trailing only Patrick Mahomes. He's
- 11:41Speaker 1: thirteen in completion percent, and he's thirteenth and passer rating.
- 11:44Speaker 1: The one thing he doesn't do well right now, though,
- 11:46Speaker 1: is is yards per a tempt. He ranks thirty eighth
- 11:49Speaker 1: in the NFL at just six point four. And then
- 11:50Speaker 1: obviously jumped out when we jumped out to me when
- 11:53Speaker 1: I looked at the box score from last week, because
- 11:55Speaker 1: I go he threw fifty eight times and only a
- 11:57Speaker 1: two hundred and eighty yards, So they're not pushing the
- 11:59Speaker 1: ball down yield with great pace and regularity, which is
- 12:02Speaker 1: surprising because of some of the guys that have a receiver.
- 12:05Speaker 1: Will talk about him in a minute, but you know,
- 12:07Speaker 1: he leads the league in attempts three ninety eight. The
- 12:10Speaker 1: closest person to him is three sixty and it's Colin Murray.
- 12:13Speaker 1: So he's already thrown a full game's worth, like a
- 12:17Speaker 1: heavy game, thirty eight times worth more than anyone else
- 12:19Speaker 1: in the league. So you know, it's you're definitely show
- 12:22Speaker 1: what they're doing. Offensively, they rank nineteenth in total offense
- 12:25Speaker 1: in fifth in passing offense. So you mentioned you earlier
- 12:29Speaker 1: about how good the Seawks are, playing twenty fourth in
- 12:31Speaker 1: total defense for the last four weeks, allowing just two
- 12:33Speaker 1: eighty two per game. That'd be number one in the NFL,
- 12:35Speaker 1: and their twenties against the pass right now, So they're
- 12:37Speaker 1: gonna have to work cut out for him because he's
- 12:39Speaker 1: the greatest of all time for a reason. And you
- 12:41Speaker 1: he's hard to sack. He's a guy that doesn't take
- 12:43Speaker 1: a lot of sacks because the ball out quick, you know,
- 12:45Speaker 1: and he just he is what he is. He's Tom Brady.
- 12:47Speaker 1: But I think the Seahawks will have an opportunity to
- 12:50Speaker 1: come out strong defensively and shut him down a little bit. Yeah,
- 12:52Speaker 1: you gotta get after the goat. He's gonna get the
- 12:54Speaker 1: ball out quick. He's not gonna make too many bad decisions,
- 12:56Speaker 1: but when he does, you have to capitalize. Let's talk
- 12:59Speaker 1: about Albert quarterback Gino Smith versus the Bucks defense. This
- 13:03Speaker 1: guy's been playing like an MVP. He's completed seventy three
- 13:06Speaker 1: percent of his passes. He's six in the NFL with
- 13:09Speaker 1: two thousand, one hundred ninety nine yards. Fourth when it
- 13:11Speaker 1: comes to passing touchdowns, he's got fifteen. Fourth in QBR
- 13:14Speaker 1: at sixty eight point one in Geno Smith has seven
- 13:18Speaker 1: games with multiple pass cities this season. He's had seven
- 13:21Speaker 1: his whole career over the past nine seasons. So far
- 13:25Speaker 1: this year he has excuse me. Last week against Arizona Cardinals,
- 13:28Speaker 1: he was twenty six to thirty four two seventy five,
- 13:30Speaker 1: two touchdowns, one interception to QBR rating of one oh six.
- 13:33Speaker 1: He also had six carries for thirty yards a couple
- 13:35Speaker 1: of big third down runs. On the season. This guy
- 13:38Speaker 1: has been playing really good man. He's takes care of
- 13:40Speaker 1: the football. Doesn't put you in compromise of positions. The
- 13:43Speaker 1: one time he has thrown a suspect football, in my opinion,
- 13:48Speaker 1: was last week. It was to pick six and what
- 13:50Speaker 1: do they do? They bounced back. So you're going up
- 13:52Speaker 1: against a good defense man. Their ninth in total defense.
- 13:55Speaker 1: Talking about the Bucks allowing three hundred thirteen yards per game,
- 13:58Speaker 1: but their fifth against the past all one hundred and
- 14:01Speaker 1: eighty seven yards per game. So it's gonna take another
- 14:04Speaker 1: nice performance by Gino Smith. But there's nothing that tells
- 14:07Speaker 1: me that we shouldn't expect the solid performance by this guy, Gino.
- 14:11Speaker 1: I've been saying it all year. Let Gino be Gino,
- 14:13Speaker 1: the poise, the confidence, the swag ain't writing back. Gino
- 14:17Speaker 1: is bawling out, playing like an MVP, and I'd expect
- 14:19Speaker 1: nothing less, especially over here in Germany. Now you're people
- 14:22Speaker 1: bump the receivers. Yeah, Mike Evans, he's a dog. Yes,
- 14:26Speaker 1: there's no other way to say. He's a dude. And
- 14:27Speaker 1: he's still want the best receivers in the NFL. And
- 14:31Speaker 1: and he's a great teammate. Remember when he went went
- 14:33Speaker 1: hand for Tom Brady early this year, he got suspended,
- 14:35Speaker 1: took an l for that, but he said what you
- 14:36Speaker 1: want me to do? It is Tom Brady, what do
- 14:38Speaker 1: you want me to do? He's in his ninth year.
- 14:42Speaker 1: This is crazy stat. Ninth year in the NFL. He's
- 14:44Speaker 1: gone over a thousand yards every single season he's been
- 14:47Speaker 1: in the National Football Weige. He's on pace to do
- 14:49Speaker 1: that again in twenty twenty two. There's career numbers six
- 14:52Speaker 1: hundred fifty receptions, nine nine hundred and eighteen yards, seventy
- 14:55Speaker 1: eight touchdowns, and he's averaging fifteen yards per catch the
- 14:58Speaker 1: entire career. He just next place this year six hundred
- 15:01Speaker 1: seventeen yards and forty four receptions, three touchdowns. The crazy
- 15:04Speaker 1: thing he's never been on bro That's wild. How that's wild?
- 15:08Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sure the years you break it down,
- 15:11Speaker 1: you say, who would you put him over? Blah blah blah.
- 15:12Speaker 1: But he's Mike Evans, so he's a dog. He'll get
- 15:15Speaker 1: down the field. So back to back weeks, Tarik Will
- 15:18Speaker 1: and Mike Jackson are gonna have their hands full with guys,
- 15:20Speaker 1: and there's talented, talented receivers. But Tarik stepped up the challenge,
- 15:23Speaker 1: Mike stepped up to the challenge. I think Tariq won
- 15:25Speaker 1: that battle last week against DeAndre Hopkins. So he's playing
- 15:28Speaker 1: his confidence at an all time high, holding the hoop
- 15:31Speaker 1: to thirty six yards and four receptions. So I got
- 15:32Speaker 1: all the comments in the world. I just love that
- 15:34Speaker 1: he's getting all these tests early on just to keep
- 15:37Speaker 1: stacking the resume. So hopefully when the Seahawks are playing
- 15:39Speaker 1: in you know, late December, January, hopefully in the February,
- 15:42Speaker 1: it won't be a thing for him. He's growing, man,
- 15:45Speaker 1: he's growing. And it's nice to watch these two girls
- 15:47Speaker 1: man trick Willing to Michael Jackson, two guys who we
- 15:49Speaker 1: didn't think would be the starting corners for the Seahawks
- 15:51Speaker 1: when the season started. They're doing their thing. All right,
- 15:54Speaker 1: Let's focus on these Bucks again. And you got Vita Vea, man,
- 15:57Speaker 1: he is a local kid product out of you dub
- 16:00Speaker 1: and he has six and a half sex that's eleventh ranked.
- 16:04Speaker 1: That's good enough for eleventh in the NFL. But he's
- 16:06Speaker 1: an interior alignment like these guys aren't supposed to get
- 16:08Speaker 1: a bunch of sacks, but that is what he is doing. Man.
- 16:12Speaker 1: But the Bucks are twenty third and rush defense allowing
- 16:14Speaker 1: one hundred twenty five yards per game. So yes, he's
- 16:17Speaker 1: getting his Vitave is a big body man. When you
- 16:19Speaker 1: think about you, dub defense is like the Heyday, you
- 16:22Speaker 1: think of guys like Vita Vea. So you gotta watch
- 16:25Speaker 1: this dude. Man, he's going to get after the quarterback.
- 16:27Speaker 1: He is going to cause traffic. He requires double teams.
- 16:31Speaker 1: He's a big body, a big man. This old line
- 16:33Speaker 1: is gonna have another test this week. Yes they are.
- 16:35Speaker 1: You gotta know where he's out of that. I mean,
- 16:37Speaker 1: it's not gonna be hard to know where he's at.
- 16:38Speaker 1: You big as a house, awesome blithe definitely have his
- 16:41Speaker 1: dance full there. Let's go back to the running backs. Canine,
- 16:44Speaker 1: the dude who's been doing it better than any other
- 16:46Speaker 1: rookie running back is doing in the NFL this year.
- 16:48Speaker 1: You know he's gonna be a where were Vitave is
- 16:50Speaker 1: for sure. But he's coming off his second one hundred
- 16:52Speaker 1: yard rushing game, his second game with multiple rushing touchdowns.
- 16:55Speaker 1: Most suppressive things about his performance last week I mention
- 16:57Speaker 1: we alluded to earlier sixty two rush yards and eleven
- 17:00Speaker 1: carries in the fourth quarter with two touchdowns against the Cardinals.
- 17:03Speaker 1: So he's doing it at the right time. It's five
- 17:05Speaker 1: straight game of the rushing touchdown, and he's becoming a starter.
- 17:08Speaker 1: He's got four hundred and twenty four yards six touchdowns,
- 17:10Speaker 1: averaging one hundred and six yards per game during that span,
- 17:12Speaker 1: seven touchdowns on the air, a canine is bawling. We
- 17:15Speaker 1: talked about this almost in every show because he continues
- 17:18Speaker 1: to just show how good he is, that he can
- 17:19Speaker 1: handle the world. He can handle thirty carries, and he's
- 17:21Speaker 1: gonna need to continue to do that against this Buccaneers team,
- 17:24Speaker 1: who earned as good at stopping the run as you'd think.
- 17:27Speaker 1: But obviously if guys like me to bay in the middle,
- 17:29Speaker 1: so it should be fun matchup. Yeah, man ca nine,
- 17:31Speaker 1: come on, do your thing. He's been bawling as of late,
- 17:33Speaker 1: as soon as he became a starter. He was bawling
- 17:35Speaker 1: before he was a starter, but then he became a starter,
- 17:37Speaker 1: and then there's no doubt he's one of the best
- 17:39Speaker 1: running backs of the league. Let's talk about the Bucks.
- 17:41Speaker 1: Running back Lenon Fournette came in about thirty pounds over weight.
- 17:45Speaker 1: He's lost that way, but this team is still dead
- 17:48Speaker 1: last in the NFL, just averaging sixty yards per game,
- 17:51Speaker 1: has three point three yards per carries what Lennon Fournette
- 17:54Speaker 1: is averaging. He's got one hundred twenty one carries, four
- 17:55Speaker 1: and five yards and two touchdowns. He's also has forty
- 17:59Speaker 1: two receptions. Not surprising as much as they throw the
- 18:01Speaker 1: football for three and to fourteen yards and three touchdowns.
- 18:04Speaker 1: Now the Bucks ring thirtieth when it comes to rushing attempts,
- 18:08Speaker 1: They're gonna throw the ball all across the yard. That's
- 18:10Speaker 1: why you cannot allow this man to get going. Right,
- 18:13Speaker 1: he's only averaging three point three per carry. If he
- 18:15Speaker 1: has a good game, that's gonna do nothing but help
- 18:18Speaker 1: the goat Tom Brady when he comes to tossing that
- 18:20Speaker 1: ball all across the yard. The Seahawks are twenty seventh
- 18:24Speaker 1: against the run this year, allowing one hundred and thirty
- 18:26Speaker 1: eight per game. A lot of that is because of
- 18:27Speaker 1: what happened earlier in the season. Guys are running all
- 18:29Speaker 1: over the yard. That's not going down as of late.
- 18:32Speaker 1: Austin Eckler they held him to thirty one yards on
- 18:34Speaker 1: nine carries. Sagon Barker Barker, Barkley Hey, they held him
- 18:39Speaker 1: the fifty three yards on twenty carries, and then James
- 18:41Speaker 1: Connor had seven for forty five. So lately this team
- 18:44Speaker 1: has taken care of the run. They have to continue
- 18:47Speaker 1: to do that against Leonard Fornet, no question about it.
- 18:49Speaker 1: I think you can't. You cannot allow the one thing
- 18:51Speaker 1: that they're not doing well. You can't allow them to
- 18:53Speaker 1: have success there. I mean, that's the thing. They just
- 18:54Speaker 1: needs to be shut down. I think the Seahawks defense
- 18:56Speaker 1: will the guys up front, Al Woods, punafod To channing To.
- 19:00Speaker 1: Most of those guys are playing well. Jordan Brooks leading
- 19:02Speaker 1: the NFL and tackle. So I feel good about that matchup.
- 19:04Speaker 1: But we're live, we're in Germany. Let's tell them how
- 19:06Speaker 1: we're get this victory downe victory at the forty five,
- 19:12Speaker 1: waits for the snack. Michael Dickson puts it down. That
- 19:15Speaker 1: kick is away. If that kick is gone, it's gone.
- 19:20Speaker 1: It's a pass to victory. On Hawk Talk, Man, don't
- 19:24Speaker 1: let to travel affect you and I and with this team,
- 19:26Speaker 1: I don't think it's gonna be one issue whatsoever. This
- 19:29Speaker 1: team has been to London before and they handled that
- 19:32Speaker 1: with an amazing grace and class. And with these international games,
- 19:36Speaker 1: a lot of times it's about who handles the travel,
- 19:37Speaker 1: who handles the time difference who handles the little things,
- 19:40Speaker 1: and don't allow that to become an excuse. Don't allow
- 19:42Speaker 1: it to be Oh, shoot I woke up at this time.
- 19:45Speaker 1: Oh we're not in my bed. Oh this German food
- 19:48Speaker 1: isn't as good as I thought. I'm not saying that's true, sausages,
- 19:52Speaker 1: the Augustin or Stamhouse, which he was killing it on
- 19:54Speaker 1: my saying Germans bad. I'm just saying you can't have
- 19:56Speaker 1: all these excuses. I don't think you're gonna see that
- 19:58Speaker 1: from this team. We saw anyone who saw practice footage
- 20:01Speaker 1: the last couple of days, everyone jumping around, dancing. Anyone
- 20:04Speaker 1: to know them. They just got off a plane for
- 20:06Speaker 1: nine hours. People are hype. The energy is good here,
- 20:08Speaker 1: so I feel good about that. And the Seahawks, you know,
- 20:10Speaker 1: having that advantage in this matchup, yet they have to
- 20:14Speaker 1: play consistent on defense. Keep doing what you're doing. Man. Now,
- 20:17Speaker 1: the Bucks like to throw the football, so look out
- 20:20Speaker 1: from Mike Evans that secondary. You know what I'm gonna
- 20:23Speaker 1: say right now, Quandre first pick of the year, Hotel
- 20:26Speaker 1: going down. Quandre's gonna get it done. Terse gonna hold
- 20:29Speaker 1: it down. Mike Jackson, you guys, hold it down. You
- 20:31Speaker 1: guys do your thing. Man, don't let Tom Brady be
- 20:34Speaker 1: who he is, which is the goat Tom Brady, Right,
- 20:36Speaker 1: we want him to look mediocre, We want him to
- 20:39Speaker 1: look average. I know that is a tall task, but
- 20:42Speaker 1: I think this defense is more than capable of doing
- 20:43Speaker 1: that without question. Stop Tom, lock him out. I know
- 20:46Speaker 1: he's a goat. He'll get all his flowers later, not
- 20:49Speaker 1: on Sunday. And the other thing offensively is, you know,
- 20:52Speaker 1: keep doing what. I don't know how many times I
- 20:54Speaker 1: can say this. Geno's balling out. They're mixing in that
- 20:56Speaker 1: thirteen personnel. We love it. They're the most efficient team
- 20:58Speaker 1: when they do that. Tight ends and be going crazy.
- 21:00Speaker 1: This year, they're gonna run the football and get DK
- 21:02Speaker 1: and Tyler involved. They they've hadn't had the kind of
- 21:05Speaker 1: games that you'd expect from them. It's usually one or
- 21:07Speaker 1: the other. He's kind of balling out, and I think
- 21:09Speaker 1: that's gonna bode well for the Seahawks this week. I
- 21:12Speaker 1: feel like, you know, defensively, the Bucks are good, but
- 21:14Speaker 1: I think you also make them involved and things are
- 21:16Speaker 1: be going good. Man, let's get this dub on someday. Hey, No.
- 21:19Speaker 1: Three points, no turnovers, don't make mistakes on special teams.
- 21:23Speaker 1: Just play some clean football. That's all we're looking for. Man,
- 21:26Speaker 1: let's go seven and three and get out of Germany
- 21:29Speaker 1: nice and clean. Absolutely seven and three heading in the
- 21:31Speaker 1: BIE week looks incredibly nice. This has been Hawk Talk,
- 21:34Speaker 1: the preview edition Seahawks taken on the Buccaneers from Munich, Germany.
