• 0:29
  Speaker 6: place on this team.
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: Now here's your host, Nasa Chobee.
• 0:34
  Speaker 5: Welcome into another edition of Hawk Talk.
• 0:36
  Speaker 7: The Seahawks beat the Arizona Cardinals by a score of
• 0:39
  Speaker 7: twenty to ten get back in the win column at Loomenfield.
• 0:42
  Speaker 7: And the Seahawks did it missing a lot of guys,
• 0:44
  Speaker 7: without dk Metcalf, without Evan Brown, several starters on the
• 0:47
  Speaker 7: offensive line still ended up blocking for one hundred yard
• 0:50
  Speaker 7: rusher in Ken Walker. So let's not waste any more time.
• 0:53
  Speaker 7: Let's talk to the guy who has a PhD in
• 0:56
  Speaker 7: moving people who do.
• 0:57
  Speaker 5: Not want to be moved. Our guy Ray Roberts in
• 0:59
  Speaker 5: the trenches.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: It's time to go inside the trenches with former Seahawk
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: Ray Roberts.
• 1:07
  Speaker 7: Big Ray big win yesterday and like I just mentioned,
• 1:10
  Speaker 7: Seahawks did it with their fifth different starting offensive line combo.
• 1:13
  Speaker 7: They've been banged up up front. How did that group
• 1:16
  Speaker 7: perform overall?
• 1:17
  Speaker 5: What do you see from them?
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: Now?
• 1:18
  Speaker 8: I was really impressed with how well Olu communicated because,
• 1:23
  Speaker 8: like on the NFL films replay, you can hear him
• 1:26
  Speaker 8: talking and Geno having conversations at.
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: The line of scrimmage and him making calls, and so
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: his calls are very clear and precise. And then I'm
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: going to tell you, like I thought that one of
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: the biggest issues in the run game was that we
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: weren't getting to the second level consistently enough. And when
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: I watched it, especially in the first half, the combinations
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: with Olu and Bradford, they were absolutely taking their double
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: teams to the second level and it was creating some
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: nice little lanes for Kennick Walker to run through. So
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: I've been really impressed with what I've seen so far
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: out of them. And then even a stone foresight to me.
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: He just looks more comfortable on the right side than
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: he does on the left side. It just seems more
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: natural for him. I know he played left tackling college,
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: but on the right side, he just looks more fluid,
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: he looks more athletic, it looks more powerful in the
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: run game. So I thought that the combination that they
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: had yesterday played a pretty good football game.
• 2:23
  Speaker 5: Big Ray.
• 2:23
  Speaker 9: I was watching film of ken Walker, and I thought
• 2:26
  Speaker 9: he did a better job, at least early in the game,
• 2:29
  Speaker 9: getting north and south and not really looking for the
• 2:32
  Speaker 9: bounce back early. Granted, his biggest run of the day
• 2:35
  Speaker 9: was a cutback on his own, but I think that
• 2:39
  Speaker 9: credits the guards like you just mentioned. But what did
• 2:41
  Speaker 9: you say out to ken Walker and how was he
• 2:43
  Speaker 9: able to have his first one hundred yard game of
• 2:44
  Speaker 9: the season.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: Well, I think that ken Walker is starting to figure
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: out when he just needs to get vertical and go
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: get the three yards that are there, or go get
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: the four yards are there, or you may have to
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: put your shoulder down and run over the one defense
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: under standing in the hole there. And when he can
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: kind of set the playoff to pop outside on that
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: one long run he hat uh every day had a
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: hat for a hat on every guy the tight ends
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: the tackles of guard center. But there was one safety
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: that had kind of leapd down into the box at
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: the last minute. So he set that guy up and
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: then bounce it to the outside. That is a perfect
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: opportunity to do that. Sometimes though, if you see that
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: that safety coming down late and he's not necessarily in
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: the hole yet, that's when you just need to take
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: it to him. Just get vertical and take the yardage.
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: You know, have a collision with that guy or or
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: you know, put the moves on and once you get
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: through the hole. And I think he's starting to figure
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: that out. He said a little bit of that in
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: the postgame interview that he's he's doing a better job
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: at just getting vertical on some on some place, because
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: every play can't be a home run. And you know,
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: like when I when I played with Barry Sad there's
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: one of the things that Barry told us is that
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: sometimes he's running a certain way at the beginning of
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: the game or the first quarter or so because he's
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: trying to set up of he's trying to set up
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: the cutback, or if people are playing the cutback, he
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: stays to the front side more. So I think Kenneth
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: Walker is starting to kind of figure that stuff out.
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: And it looked good yesterday.
• 4:12
  Speaker 7: Yeah, he had one run bump where he got into
• 4:14
  Speaker 7: the secondary and just gave it to the defender.
• 4:16
  Speaker 5: So I love what I'm seeing.
• 4:17
  Speaker 7: You can't walk here now while we're talking about this
• 4:20
  Speaker 7: offense ray to me. They're so close to getting to
• 4:24
  Speaker 7: that next level, right. You know, last week in Cincinnati
• 4:27
  Speaker 7: it was the red zone. Other weeks it's been penalties,
• 4:30
  Speaker 7: other weeks it's been turnovers.
• 4:33
  Speaker 5: They're so close.
• 4:33
  Speaker 7: I feel like, what do they need to do as
• 4:35
  Speaker 7: a unit overall to take that next step to get
• 4:38
  Speaker 7: them where they want to go.
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: Well, I think part of it is the consistency of
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: the available bodies, you know, Like you know, we said
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: that there was five. This is the fifth different starting
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: offensive line, but if you look throughout the games, because
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: of entries during games, this has been like the eighth
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: or ninth iteration of an offensive line. So even in
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: and Detroit we were it down to one reserve offensive
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: lineman left, so if anyone else that had gotten hurt
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: would have been out of offensive lineman. So I think
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: that will that will help solidify things when because it's
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: important that those guys are playing next to each other,
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: they're starting to understand each other, they get into a
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: rhythm with each other, they get into a rhythm with
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: the running backs, all that kind of stuff. And then
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: when I think about, you know, some of the problems
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: in the in the red zone or the turnovers, I
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: think if I was Geno, I would go back and
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: revisit the mindset he had the first two thirds of
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: the season last year, where he just seemed like a
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: complete command of the offense, making checks, putting us in
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: the right situations, protecting the ball, but still being aggressive
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: with the ball. I think sometimes you know, Goes goes
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: to ultimate playmaker mode and then he'll make a crazy
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: throw or take a crazy sack or whatever. And unfortunately
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: this year is coming just really bad times in the
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: red zone or in a long drive, or in a
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: situation where you need to get points to stay on
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: the field. So but I don't think, you know, there's
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: any one problem that is the problem. It's just like
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: some little things that just let's just tighten us up,
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: get the able bodies back on the field, and then
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: just make sure that our mindset is right. From the
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: quarterback position.
• 6:23
  Speaker 10: Big great.
• 6:24
  Speaker 9: His defense is playing at a different level right now.
• 6:26
  Speaker 9: I think Jordan Brooks is having a heck of a season. Obviously,
• 6:29
  Speaker 9: Devin Witherspoon could have had a great game if it won.
• 6:32
  Speaker 10: For some penalties.
• 6:33
  Speaker 9: Who deserves the credit Because a lot of people were
• 6:35
  Speaker 9: talking about Clinton Hurt last year, get him out of here,
• 6:38
  Speaker 9: and I'm telling people to calm down, let him get
• 6:40
  Speaker 9: his guys here. But when you look at this defense,
• 6:43
  Speaker 9: how much credit does Clinton Hurt get? And then what
• 6:46
  Speaker 9: about the Jimmies and the Joels on that side of
• 6:47
  Speaker 9: the ball.
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: Well, I think the credit that Clint Hurt should get
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: is just his results. Like you know, he wasn't like
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: in all the interviews and people are asking him about,
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: hey just three four with four to three concepts, like what.
• 7:00
  Speaker 5: Is this all about?
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: And you let Dick Hughes al Woods go and all
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: this other kind of stuff and maybe you don't have
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: the right personnel and this that and the other thing.
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: And he just kept saying, we're not coaching guys anything
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: differently than we coached them when we were, you know,
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: playing good football, you know, three or four years ago.
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: And so he kind of stuck to it. And when
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: I look at this, like, you know how we talk
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: about the pass rush and the coverage has to kind
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: of be connected. Well, I think the front half, like
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: the defensive line and the linebackers, have to also be connected.
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: So when I watched the film, this is a clean
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: that that surprised me is Jared Reid is more times
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: than not the first dude off the ball, and I
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: don't remember that being part of his game when he
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: was here. But his first step is so quick that
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: on a lot of the plays he's already playing on
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: the offensive side of the line of scrimmage. That in
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: and of itself, whether he makes the tackle or not,
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: is disruption and that allows for other people to make plays.
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: And I really do think that that is why the
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: run defense is better. And then you look at Draymond Jones,
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: He's doing the same thing. These dudes are not big,
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: you know, three hundred and forty pounds two gap defensive tackles.
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: They're more athletic, and they may be playing like a
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: two gap look, but there are attacking gaps versus reading
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: and reacting to gat to blocking schemes, And to me,
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: that makes a difference when a running back has to
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: make a move the second he gets the ball, the
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: defense is already in a winning in a winning mindset
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: in that situation. Now you've got to go make the tackles.
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: And then that's allowing these run the linebackers to flow
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: without a whole lot of traffic in front of them.
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: So then Jordan Brooks can have the game that he
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: had Like this dude seemed like he was making every
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: tackle on every play in every situation. And then you know,
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: to see like his animation that we've never seen before.
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: He was really I think, vibing with that Jamal Adams
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: and Witherspoon yesterday, he was really into it. So I
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: really do think, like if I think about Whetherstoon has
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: been great, He's made some great plays. Jordan brook Brooks
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: has been awesome to get to see him back out
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: there after the knee surgery. You know, Jamal Adams is
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: doing his thing, Diggs is always doing his thing. But
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: to me, the magic, which is what they have been
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: missing the last couple of years, has been the two
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: defensive tackles and Jones and reed to me they would
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: be the MVPs of the defense because a lot of
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: their stats aren't big, but the sacrifices that they're making
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: so that other people can have stats is pretty big.
• 9:35
  Speaker 7: I love what you said there, Ray, and I think
• 9:37
  Speaker 7: some credit of that credit pie has got to go
• 9:39
  Speaker 7: to John Snyder in this personnel department, because a lot
• 9:42
  Speaker 7: of people really doubted whether the Seahawks did enough upfront,
• 9:45
  Speaker 7: and clearly they did with how Jay Reid and Raymond
• 9:48
  Speaker 7: Jones are playing. But last thing for me, right for you,
• 9:51
  Speaker 7: sticking on that defensive line. We know last year the
• 9:54
  Speaker 7: rookie class got a lot of attention, and rightfully so
• 9:56
  Speaker 7: because they're the best in the National Football League. But
• 9:59
  Speaker 7: you know, this year, Drake Woollen was coming off an injury,
• 10:01
  Speaker 7: Kobe Bryant had some injuries. Both tackles have been injured.
• 10:05
  Speaker 7: Are you surprised or did you see this ascension coming
• 10:08
  Speaker 7: for Boye Mafe? You know, I think a lot of
• 10:11
  Speaker 7: people were hopeful that he would take this step, But
• 10:14
  Speaker 7: are you surprised that he was able to kind of
• 10:16
  Speaker 7: take that step this early and now almost vault himself
• 10:19
  Speaker 7: to the top of that sophomore class this year?
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: Well? You know what, like it was. The thing is
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: last year you could always see glimpses of it, Like
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: he never got enough reps to me to get into
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: a rhythm of a game to be able to unleash
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: everything that he was capable of doing last year. But
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: you could see glimpses of it. And those glimpses made
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: you think of Cliff April, Like they don't have big,
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: huge biceps and like you know, Miles Garrett or somebody,
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: but man, they are slippery to get your hands on
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: them when you're trying to block them. They'd have like
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: this uncanny technique to be able to get off blocks
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: and get to the and close on the quarterback and
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: so and then they you know, if you look at
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: ma Fe, he's really good at setting the edge in
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: the run game. And so I will say I'm a
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: little bit surprised at how good he is as fast
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: as it has been, but it's something that you could
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: see coming if he just had the opportunities to get
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: into the rhythm, get more reps and understand the game
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: more and understand how people are attacking him and be
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: able to set up your pass rushing different things like that,
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: get a feel for what teams are trying to do.
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: But it's really awesome to see. I remember the first
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: time I met him. I was standing on the field
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: at practice and I had heard his name, but I
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: didn't quite know what he looked like. And he just
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: walked straight at me, like staring right at me. And
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: I'm thinking like, okay, what did I say to this
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: about this dude? Like who is this guy coming at
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: me like this? Like I'm ready to get bowled up?
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: Like what's happening? And he was just like, hey, how
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: you doing, sir? And I said, meet you. I was
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: just like, okay, kind of weird dude, but he is.
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: He is a really good football player.
• 11:59
  Speaker 4: Man.
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: He looks like he studies a game. He looks prepared.
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: Nothing seems to surprise him. You know, he probably could
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: have had another sack yesterday, but he anticipated the quarterback
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: throwing the ball and he jumped up instead of getting
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: the sack. And so I think of what four straight
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: games with a sack. And he's also like in the
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: top half and pressures and win rate by Pro football focused.
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: So the dude is having a real breakout season. And
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: because of all the other stuff, Witherspoon and some of
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: the some of the other people that are you know,
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: Jamal Adams. I don't think that people can hear his
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: thunder right now, but he's plumped some really good football.
• 12:34
  Speaker 7: Big Ray Roberts giving you everything you know breaking down
• 12:37
  Speaker 7: the Seahawks victory.
• 12:38
  Speaker 5: Big Ray, we appreciate you.
• 12:39
  Speaker 7: We will talk to you again on Sunday and on
• 12:42
  Speaker 7: Thursday if you guys listening to the huddle. But one
• 12:43
  Speaker 7: last thing for Ray, a little shout out Big Ray's
• 12:46
  Speaker 7: Garage Grind Mental Health Edition on Seahawks dot com and
• 12:49
  Speaker 7: anywhere you get your podcasts. A lot of big guests
• 12:51
  Speaker 7: coming up, So I appreciate everything you do, Ray, and
• 12:53
  Speaker 7: we'll talk to you soon.
• 12:54
  Speaker 10: Yes, sir, Thanks right, peace.
• 12:56
  Speaker 5: See what happened at first left?
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: What that happened was unhooked dark.
• 13:05
  Speaker 5: Bump Man.
• 13:05
  Speaker 7: This game, it felt close on the scoreboard, but to
• 13:09
  Speaker 7: me watching it, it never felt that way. It always
• 13:11
  Speaker 7: felt like the Seahawks were in control, even from the
• 13:13
  Speaker 7: opening possession. I don't know what it was, but that's
• 13:16
  Speaker 7: just kind of how I felt the game played out.
• 13:18
  Speaker 7: Games started with three punts with the Seahawks offense got
• 13:20
  Speaker 7: rolling on a three play sixty one yard drive that
• 13:23
  Speaker 7: ended with a Jackson Smith and jig but twenty yard
• 13:26
  Speaker 7: touchdown his first NFL touchdown. Bump called it all week
• 13:29
  Speaker 7: long and again on the pregame show that Jayson was
• 13:31
  Speaker 7: going to have a day.
• 13:32
  Speaker 5: What do you see from that man, Bump?
• 13:34
  Speaker 9: Well, guy playing fast man and his touchdown was nice.
• 13:37
  Speaker 9: And we watched his touchdown and we're like, nah, no way,
• 13:39
  Speaker 9: Buddha messed that coverage up. It might have been boot
• 13:42
  Speaker 9: as because he went with the corner and then Jay
• 13:45
  Speaker 9: Simmers running the post. He went over the top to
• 13:47
  Speaker 9: the corner and the quarterbacks to his side. It was like,
• 13:50
  Speaker 9: hold on, I got I got this deep area right
• 13:52
  Speaker 9: here and it slides underneath. So even the ballers make
• 13:56
  Speaker 9: some mistakes from time to time. But I just saw
• 13:58
  Speaker 9: him doing what he's supposed to do, him doing it fast,
• 14:00
  Speaker 9: and Gino getting the football out early as soon as
• 14:03
  Speaker 9: he hit that break and uh hitting him a stride. Man,
• 14:06
  Speaker 9: it was slightly behind him, but you know what, he's
• 14:08
  Speaker 9: a twentieth pick in the league. He can make that
• 14:10
  Speaker 9: pick man. Yeah. Uh, the Hawks was forced after that touchdown.
• 14:14
  Speaker 9: The Hawks of force are three now the next possession,
• 14:16
  Speaker 9: but then DJ Dallas will fumble the football on a punt.
• 14:19
  Speaker 9: I had been in those situations before. It is a
• 14:22
  Speaker 9: lonely feeling. So the Cardinals took over in the Seowks
• 14:24
  Speaker 9: thirty two yard line, and that foot will force Oh
• 14:27
  Speaker 9: it was forced by a guess who, Joey blunt Man.
• 14:30
  Speaker 10: I like that dude. I remember ruining him a few times.
• 14:33
  Speaker 10: Is he he's a Virginia guy?
• 14:34
  Speaker 5: Yeah, uva guy. So him and Ray close to Hyeah.
• 14:38
  Speaker 9: So Big Ray, you know, Big Ray lovet some some
• 14:39
  Speaker 9: Uva guys. But the Hawks defense will hold the Cardinals
• 14:42
  Speaker 9: to a field goal, making the score seventy three. Then
• 14:44
  Speaker 9: the Hawks will punt on the next drive, and the
• 14:45
  Speaker 9: Cardinals will respond by going down the field eighty yards
• 14:48
  Speaker 9: on eight plays.
• 14:50
  Speaker 10: And Josh dopped almost made a mistake.
• 14:53
  Speaker 9: Man Devin Witherspoon goes up, he drops into the deep third,
• 14:57
  Speaker 9: snatches the football out the air, dobs looking for the
• 14:59
  Speaker 9: corner instead of taking a knee with the Spoon goes nah,
• 15:03
  Speaker 9: I'm getting money. He exits the end zone, spins makes
• 15:06
  Speaker 9: a guy miss Boom gets up like the fifteen of
• 15:08
  Speaker 9: the twenty yard line.
• 15:09
  Speaker 10: But there are yellow flags everywhere.
• 15:12
  Speaker 9: All started with the rough and the passer, and then
• 15:14
  Speaker 9: you get a person foul on Brooks. Then you get
• 15:16
  Speaker 9: a personal foul on number seventy four for there's the Cardinals.
• 15:19
  Speaker 10: I forgot who it is.
• 15:20
  Speaker 9: But with all that being said, the Cardinals retained the
• 15:22
  Speaker 9: football and Devin with a Spoon was robbed of his
• 15:25
  Speaker 9: second pick.
• 15:26
  Speaker 5: He was robbed Man.
• 15:27
  Speaker 7: I ah, that play bothered me, man because he did
• 15:29
  Speaker 7: everything he was supposed to do. The rough in the
• 15:31
  Speaker 7: passer call was so late it didn't have any impact
• 15:34
  Speaker 7: on the ball. Dobs through with the sweeters, makes a
• 15:37
  Speaker 7: great interception and he takes it out of the end
• 15:40
  Speaker 7: zone and all hell breaks loose. Maybe he just takes
• 15:43
  Speaker 7: a knee, maybe there's no flags. Who knows what happens,
• 15:46
  Speaker 7: but he didn't. Then Dobbs ran in for a twenty
• 15:48
  Speaker 7: five yard touchdown that made the score ten to seven. Hawks,
• 15:52
  Speaker 7: though they respond with the driver of their own, going
• 15:54
  Speaker 7: seventy six yards on nine plays as Gino Smith found
• 15:57
  Speaker 7: Jake Bobo in the back of the end zone from
• 15:59
  Speaker 7: eighteen yards out. Bubbo originally was ruled out of bounds
• 16:02
  Speaker 7: when he Carol won his challenge. The calls overturned for
• 16:05
  Speaker 7: a touchdown. The Hawks took the lead fourteen to ten
• 16:08
  Speaker 7: going in the second half.
• 16:10
  Speaker 9: Hey in the second half, the Seahawks will shoot themselves
• 16:12
  Speaker 9: in the foot, turn the ball over twice. You get
• 16:14
  Speaker 9: that interception and the fumble by You know, he's got
• 16:17
  Speaker 9: to clean that up. A lot of people are looking
• 16:18
  Speaker 9: at these these two mistakes and they're blowing it up.
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 16:22
  Speaker 10: Of course, you want him to take care of the football.
• 16:24
  Speaker 10: And understand that.
• 16:25
  Speaker 9: I was on the show today and I go, all,
• 16:26
  Speaker 9: do you realize he is two less touchdowns and two
• 16:31
  Speaker 9: more picks than he was last year at this point,
• 16:33
  Speaker 9: It's not like he's playing horrible football, but you do
• 16:36
  Speaker 9: have to take care of the football.
• 16:37
  Speaker 10: So let's clean that up.
• 16:39
  Speaker 9: But the defense, he was strong man, allowing no point
• 16:42
  Speaker 9: and the Hawks would do just enough in this half,
• 16:45
  Speaker 9: adding two field goals, hold it down twenty ten. You
• 16:48
  Speaker 9: take the wins. However, you can gotta clean some stuff up.
• 16:50
  Speaker 9: Defense look good, offense looked good at times. Gena was
• 16:52
  Speaker 9: like thirteen to fifteen in the first half, one hundred
• 16:55
  Speaker 9: and forty six two touchdowns. Just got to clean up
• 16:57
  Speaker 9: that second half.
• 16:58
  Speaker 7: Wins are wins man in the NFL, don't apologize for him.
• 17:00
  Speaker 7: Do not apologize for wins. Like you said, we can
• 17:03
  Speaker 7: clean some things up. Pete Carroll mentioned on his show
• 17:06
  Speaker 7: this morning that Bubba could have helped him a little
• 17:08
  Speaker 7: bit on that deep route. Geno knows he needs to
• 17:10
  Speaker 7: take care of the ball a little better, and I
• 17:11
  Speaker 7: think he's gonna do that. So I got no complaints there.
• 17:13
  Speaker 7: Like I said, a win's a win. But let's keep
• 17:16
  Speaker 7: it moving. Let's figure out who made some plays.
• 17:18
  Speaker 5: Playmakers touch, playmakers.
• 17:25
  Speaker 4: Told him what time it is?
• 17:27
  Speaker 5: Holy bump, you said it, man.
• 17:31
  Speaker 7: Jordan Brooks had one of the best games I've seen
• 17:34
  Speaker 7: him play in his career as a Seattle Seahawk. Nine tackles,
• 17:38
  Speaker 7: six solo, half a sack, two TFLs, one pass defended,
• 17:42
  Speaker 7: one QB hit, and for a time there in the
• 17:44
  Speaker 7: second half, I felt like he made every single tackle.
• 17:46
  Speaker 7: I kept looking up, I go fifty six. Oh, okay,
• 17:49
  Speaker 7: that's fifty six. Oh that's fifty six and an animated
• 17:52
  Speaker 7: version of Jordan Brooks man. I don't think I've ever seen.
• 17:53
  Speaker 7: He's a man possessed out there, and I just love
• 17:56
  Speaker 7: everything and see that is the guy they drafted.
• 17:57
  Speaker 5: For sure, He's shown glimpse of that.
• 17:59
  Speaker 7: He's been that player at times and then obviously Tursday
• 18:02
  Speaker 7: cw coming back from that. But what Jordan Brooks is
• 18:04
  Speaker 7: doing right now is unbelievable because he's playing at an
• 18:06
  Speaker 7: all pro level and I finally think he's starting to
• 18:09
  Speaker 7: get some of the respect from outside of the Seahawks
• 18:11
  Speaker 7: circle into what he's doing right now.
• 18:14
  Speaker 10: It's playing like a missile out there.
• 18:16
  Speaker 9: When he decides he's going after somebody with the football,
• 18:19
  Speaker 9: there's no hesitation.
• 18:21
  Speaker 10: It's all speed and violence. I love it.
• 18:23
  Speaker 9: Now this young man, Boye Mafe is leading the team
• 18:27
  Speaker 9: with four sacks. Man he had three tackles, two solo,
• 18:30
  Speaker 9: one TfL, quarterback hid a sack, one pass defended, and
• 18:34
  Speaker 9: you see him everywhere.
• 18:35
  Speaker 10: When he was drafted out of Minnesota.
• 18:37
  Speaker 9: That was kind of the thing, right He started playing
• 18:39
  Speaker 9: football in high school, so didn't have a lot of reps,
• 18:42
  Speaker 9: but was a student of the game and was invited
• 18:44
  Speaker 9: to the senior ball and would do exactly what he
• 18:47
  Speaker 9: was told to do when it came to the coaching.
• 18:49
  Speaker 9: And I think that that's what kind of gravitated some
• 18:51
  Speaker 9: of these coaches to him, though I look, he's so
• 18:53
  Speaker 9: young in his development. Whatever we say his goal, I
• 18:56
  Speaker 9: think he's taking the coach and now he's allowing himself
• 18:59
  Speaker 9: to beat him self out there too.
• 19:00
  Speaker 10: Man.
• 19:01
  Speaker 7: I love seeing boy MafA you do his thing. Yeah, man,
• 19:04
  Speaker 7: he is crushing it. Leading the team in sacks. I
• 19:06
  Speaker 7: definitely would have thought, you know, Chenna or Dt or
• 19:09
  Speaker 7: one of those guys might be the team leader. But
• 19:11
  Speaker 7: if boy keeps this up, man, he's gonna have some
• 19:13
  Speaker 7: crazy numbers. Stick it on that side of the ball.
• 19:16
  Speaker 7: Devin Witherspoon, my goodness, man, four tackles, one pass offended,
• 19:21
  Speaker 7: one interception called back after penalty, one sack also called
• 19:26
  Speaker 7: back after penalty. But man, this dude, all he does
• 19:30
  Speaker 7: is make plays. When he hit when he hit Rondelle Moore,
• 19:33
  Speaker 7: I believe it was my goodness. I was, Oh my man,
• 19:36
  Speaker 7: that dude has a family dog like that's we felt
• 19:40
  Speaker 7: that hit in the booth because he's just every time
• 19:44
  Speaker 7: I watch him play, I talk about it almost every week.
• 19:46
  Speaker 7: I'm a broken record. It's explosiveness. It's the way he
• 19:48
  Speaker 7: plays the game. Just like Jordan Brooks talking about no hesitation,
• 19:51
  Speaker 7: Devon Witherspoon changes what we can do as a defense.
• 19:54
  Speaker 7: And this is this guy's the limit. We're just getting
• 19:57
  Speaker 7: started with that kid.
• 20:00
  Speaker 10: As Jordan said, the ceiling is the roof for that kid.
• 20:04
  Speaker 9: The thing is the roof. You bet billion is the roof, right, Julia.
• 20:11
  Speaker 9: This was his best game as a Seahawk, for sure.
• 20:14
  Speaker 9: And I think we're saying some of the same things
• 20:16
  Speaker 9: about these guys, right, no hesitation flying to the football,
• 20:19
  Speaker 9: and I think that's a clear indication that they're selling
• 20:22
  Speaker 9: into their understanding what Clinton Hurt want for them. But
• 20:24
  Speaker 9: Adreinia Love had six tackles, five solo, one pass defended,
• 20:28
  Speaker 9: and just seemed to be everywhere at some point. So
• 20:30
  Speaker 9: everyone took their turn have their moments. There are like
• 20:32
  Speaker 9: a few players in a row or Jay Love looked nice.
• 20:35
  Speaker 9: Then you mentioned Brooks. It's nice to have a defense
• 20:38
  Speaker 9: that's multiple guys playing with high speed in tempo.
• 20:42
  Speaker 10: Jay Love is one of those guys.
• 20:43
  Speaker 9: And then Gino Smith eighteen to twenty four, two nineteen
• 20:46
  Speaker 9: two touchdowns. He did have an interception, but the QB
• 20:48
  Speaker 9: rating of one thirteen. He still completed seventy five percent
• 20:51
  Speaker 9: of his passes. He still had some crucial third downs
• 20:54
  Speaker 9: scrambles and throws. Tyler Lockett had a couple of third downs.
• 20:58
  Speaker 9: He scrambled for a couple of third downs. It was
• 21:00
  Speaker 9: there were seven to thirteen on third downs. I believe
• 21:03
  Speaker 9: the best they've been all year, and it stays to
• 21:05
  Speaker 9: Gino Gott to erase those those turnovers.
• 21:07
  Speaker 10: But Gino had a good game.
• 21:09
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I think he's right there, man, he's right there.
• 21:12
  Speaker 7: I think just their entire offense is right there of
• 21:13
  Speaker 7: getting to where they need to go to turn the
• 21:15
  Speaker 7: corner and really ascend here.
• 21:16
  Speaker 5: But Gino's playing good ball.
• 21:18
  Speaker 7: Going out to your guys, the receivers, Bobo and Jack
• 21:21
  Speaker 7: and Smith the jigb but both of them they combined
• 21:23
  Speaker 7: for eight receptions one hundred and twenty three yards, two touchdowns,
• 21:28
  Speaker 7: Jake Bobo to clutch third down reception, Jack Smith and
• 21:31
  Speaker 7: Jigbick at his first touchdown, And they said some records man,
• 21:34
  Speaker 7: Sunday was the first time Seattle had two rookie wide
• 21:37
  Speaker 7: receivers record a touchdown reception in the same game. So
• 21:40
  Speaker 7: love to see that because now they did all this
• 21:43
  Speaker 7: again without DK metcalf in a lot of weeks. That
• 21:46
  Speaker 7: would be the headline, bump is that DK didn't play.
• 21:48
  Speaker 7: How do we recover? Not even really a storyline because
• 21:51
  Speaker 7: those guys played so well. And then then you had
• 21:54
  Speaker 7: Ken Walker twenty six one hundred and five season hind
• 21:57
  Speaker 7: carries and yards.
• 21:58
  Speaker 5: So this offense is turning their game close. They're getting close.
• 22:01
  Speaker 10: Yeah, man, they're spreading the love. Man, Let's look at
• 22:03
  Speaker 10: this wide receiver round up.
• 22:05
  Speaker 9: You mentioned Jackson Smith and Jago four for sixty three,
• 22:07
  Speaker 9: a long of twenty eight that was a touchdown. Bubble
• 22:10
  Speaker 9: had four for sixty one and long and thirty one.
• 22:12
  Speaker 9: Tyler Lockett four for thirty eight, a quiet but effective
• 22:15
  Speaker 9: four for thirty eight. Kobe Parkson had two for twenty six,
• 22:18
  Speaker 9: a long of twenty seven. Titands got this offense going.
• 22:21
  Speaker 9: In the second half, Kobe Parkson had a big reception.
• 22:24
  Speaker 9: Then no offense had one for twenty five. He had
• 22:26
  Speaker 9: a big reception, tight catch in between two receivers. Ken
• 22:29
  Speaker 9: Walker had two for six, dropped once where he could
• 22:31
  Speaker 9: have gotten some money.
• 22:32
  Speaker 10: Then DJ Dallas had one catch no yards.
• 22:37
  Speaker 7: Looking better every week, man, I like the diversity in there.
• 22:40
  Speaker 7: Obviously we get some of those receptions up a little bit.
• 22:43
  Speaker 7: But if Gino's throwing the ball around twenty five times
• 22:45
  Speaker 7: and we're running twenty six times, that's usually a recipe
• 22:48
  Speaker 7: for a Seahawk victory.
• 22:50
  Speaker 5: Now, let's flip it over the coaches corner.
• 22:51
  Speaker 7: When we talked about it, earlier, Genosman finds Jake Bubbo
• 22:55
  Speaker 7: for an eighteen yard touchdown. Upon further review, Obo comes
• 22:59
  Speaker 7: why run his locket slotted inside of him on first
• 23:02
  Speaker 7: and ten ball of.
• 23:03
  Speaker 4: The eighteen yard line, So you know again hastime looking
• 23:07
  Speaker 4: now he's.
• 23:07
  Speaker 10: Going to go to the end zone.
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: Bobo's out here.
• 23:09
  Speaker 3: Jump ball.
• 23:10
  Speaker 4: Bobo makes a catch, but I think he's out of
• 23:12
  Speaker 4: the end zone. He comes down with that because he
• 23:15
  Speaker 4: has the ball in his hands.
• 23:16
  Speaker 10: I think he still hasn't his hands.
• 23:18
  Speaker 5: He's talking to the official.
• 23:20
  Speaker 4: He caught it and he fell out of bounds, could
• 23:23
  Speaker 4: not get that second foot in. We're looking at Pete
• 23:26
  Speaker 4: to see if he's going to drop the red flag
• 23:27
  Speaker 4: he's got in his hand.
• 23:29
  Speaker 5: He's now he throws it.
• 23:31
  Speaker 3: He was waiting for the guys upstairs here to get
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: a good look well while we were away. It is,
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: in fact a touchdown by Jake Bobo from eighteen yards
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: out one hand and got one foot in and.
• 23:45
  Speaker 10: Then the toenails on his right foot.
• 23:48
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 23:48
  Speaker 9: Man, this was a big bull type of play. People
• 23:53
  Speaker 9: see the end results of this and you should Bob.
• 23:55
  Speaker 9: We'll bidy control going to catching the football tiptoes Uh
• 23:59
  Speaker 9: get in that. But what he did to set this
• 24:01
  Speaker 9: up was pretty man. He has a slow release. Man,
• 24:04
  Speaker 9: I call it a tempo release. He knows he's one
• 24:07
  Speaker 9: on one, takes a one stride and a skip right
• 24:10
  Speaker 9: foot in the ground, sells the slant if you pause it.
• 24:13
  Speaker 9: When his right foot hits the ground and then he
• 24:14
  Speaker 9: gets left foot, everything in his body says this is
• 24:17
  Speaker 9: a slam. There's no way this dB is not buying
• 24:20
  Speaker 9: what's happening in front of him. Then he gets to
• 24:22
  Speaker 9: that second time, get into that left foot and boom,
• 24:24
  Speaker 9: snaps it off and shows a twitch that a guy
• 24:27
  Speaker 9: who uns a four to nine piplicate does not have.
• 24:29
  Speaker 10: Right, he's got that twitch.
• 24:31
  Speaker 9: Then he works to the sideline and Gino says, look,
• 24:33
  Speaker 9: we've done this in practice for a few months. Now,
• 24:36
  Speaker 9: you're six ' four, go up and get the ball.
• 24:39
  Speaker 9: I'm gonna give you a chance, not much else to that.
• 24:42
  Speaker 9: You win your one on one battles, you sell the slant,
• 24:45
  Speaker 9: you give yourself a chance to get some levers on
• 24:48
  Speaker 9: the dB, and Gino drops a dime, and then you
• 24:50
  Speaker 9: just show the athleticism. He is way more athletic than
• 24:54
  Speaker 9: his combine numbers will make you believe.
• 24:57
  Speaker 10: That he is.
• 24:58
  Speaker 7: His combine numbers are a far star. I mean, forget
• 25:02
  Speaker 7: about the straight line stuff. If you watch him as
• 25:04
  Speaker 7: football player, he's strong. He gets after people in the
• 25:06
  Speaker 7: run game, blocking, and you can you watch this route
• 25:09
  Speaker 7: if this if this route was ran at UCLA, he
• 25:12
  Speaker 7: had been opened by fifty yards like the DV wouldn't
• 25:15
  Speaker 7: have been anywhere close. Obviously, this is the NFL, so
• 25:18
  Speaker 7: those guys get paid too. But you're right when you
• 25:20
  Speaker 7: sell that slant, the third step of a slant the
• 25:23
  Speaker 7: way he was running it. Yeah, I'm jumping that too.
• 25:25
  Speaker 7: It's late in the route, and oh my goodness. I
• 25:28
  Speaker 7: mean that's and that's the thing he's gonna He's gonna
• 25:30
  Speaker 7: make a lot of money in and maybe not a
• 25:31
  Speaker 7: lot of money. He's gonna play a long time in
• 25:33
  Speaker 7: this league giving stuff like that, blocking and just being reliable.
• 25:38
  Speaker 7: I'm telling you right now, Bump, I said it last night.
• 25:40
  Speaker 7: Bubbo's gonna play at least ten years in the league.
• 25:43
  Speaker 7: At least ten years. But because of the what he
• 25:46
  Speaker 7: brings to the table. So love seeing that. I also
• 25:49
  Speaker 7: love the victory formation is what we got to see yesterday.
• 25:54
  Speaker 3: Here comes the Seahawk offense onto the field and the
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: Vikings defense crunching out there knowing that one meal down
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: and the Seahawks are gonna wind the clock down and
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: win this one.
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: It's the victory formation on Hawk Talk.
• 26:10
  Speaker 7: Wasn't the pretty prettiest win, but the Seahawks get it
• 26:12
  Speaker 7: done when it counted the most and get a huge
• 26:14
  Speaker 7: win in the NFC West. And when I say prettiest,
• 26:16
  Speaker 7: that doesn't mean anything wins or wins in the NFL,
• 26:18
  Speaker 7: like I said before, and how many games actually ending blowouts.
• 26:22
  Speaker 7: Even when the Seahawks won the Super Bowl, they weren't
• 26:24
  Speaker 7: blowing guys out every single week.
• 26:25
  Speaker 5: So love what we saw there.
• 26:27
  Speaker 7: Holding the Cardinals to just ten points two hundred and
• 26:29
  Speaker 7: four to nine yards of total offense. That is the
• 26:31
  Speaker 7: third week in a row they've held opponents under two
• 26:34
  Speaker 7: hundred and fifty yards. So this defense is bond and
• 26:36
  Speaker 7: they're playing really good football, which bodes well for the
• 26:38
  Speaker 7: Seahawks and moving forward.
• 26:40
  Speaker 9: Yeah, and they handled the smartest man in the NFL,
• 26:43
  Speaker 9: Josh Dobbs. Is this one hundred and forty six passing
• 26:46
  Speaker 9: yards and the Cardinals were five of fifteen on third downs,
• 26:50
  Speaker 9: aero for three on fourth down. Like we mentioned, Jordan
• 26:53
  Speaker 9: Brooks start of the defense. My man was all over
• 26:56
  Speaker 9: the field, and if Devin Witherspoon didn't have those penalties,
• 27:00
  Speaker 9: might be talking more about him. But it's all good, man,
• 27:02
  Speaker 9: but you see what he can do. We haven't played
• 27:04
  Speaker 9: a game in the last month to where we didn't
• 27:07
  Speaker 9: recognize the young man for his talents.
• 27:10
  Speaker 5: No question about it. Man. Then you said it earlier.
• 27:12
  Speaker 7: We talked about the receivers both playing really well, picked
• 27:15
  Speaker 7: up the slack without DK Metcalf. Hopefully DK is back
• 27:18
  Speaker 7: next week because if you got all those guys playing
• 27:20
  Speaker 7: like their way they're playing right now, it's gonna be
• 27:22
  Speaker 7: really tough for defenses against this receiving corps. And then
• 27:24
  Speaker 7: the rookie olu Oli Timmy did a great job stepping
• 27:27
  Speaker 7: in for Evan Brown. Ray touched on it earlier. When
• 27:29
  Speaker 7: you watch that game, nothing felt like, oh man, we're
• 27:32
  Speaker 7: starting a rookie center and our guys in out there.
• 27:35
  Speaker 7: So shout out to olu Oli, Timmy and that offensive
• 27:37
  Speaker 7: line is a unit for just continuing to step up
• 27:39
  Speaker 7: week after week.
• 27:40
  Speaker 9: Yeah, buddy and olu bigges Oli. We had them on
• 27:43
  Speaker 9: our show on Thursday, and bright young man. It's always
• 27:47
  Speaker 9: like when guys are solid people that you see him
• 27:49
  Speaker 9: go out there and ball.
• 27:50
  Speaker 10: But I think it's really all about this defense, right.
• 27:52
  Speaker 9: I mean, they're showing him that they are an explosive defense.
• 27:56
  Speaker 9: They will hit you, they'll fly around, and they can
• 27:59
  Speaker 9: hold it down for this man. Seahawks improved a foreign
• 28:01
  Speaker 9: two in the season. I think got the big showdown
• 28:03
  Speaker 9: next week. I guess the four and two Cleveland Browns,
• 28:07
  Speaker 9: they'll be wearing the throwback Jersey's going to be as
• 28:09
  Speaker 9: one of the best defenses in the league. I'm excited. Man,
• 28:12
  Speaker 9: this is a four and two team. I think they're
• 28:14
  Speaker 9: fourth in the NFC right now, let's get to five
• 28:15
  Speaker 9: and two.
• 28:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah, man, this is gonna be a huge game.
• 28:19
  Speaker 7: Probably not the ones that people circled on the calendar
• 28:21
  Speaker 7: when the schedule came out, other than the throwback game,
• 28:23
  Speaker 7: but it's gonna be a big one. Bump and I
• 28:25
  Speaker 7: are gonna do some research. Will be back at on
• 28:27
