2:28

2:30
Speaker 6: this morning, which is something we don't do a lot
2:32
Speaker 6: here on Chuck and Buck in the mornings, but it
2:35
Speaker 6: just seems like we've got to listen to the twelves
2:38
Speaker 6: here today since you guys made national headlines with how
2:42
Speaker 6: amazing that you were in that game last night. So
2:46
Speaker 6: a lot to do, no doubt here today. But let's
2:49
Speaker 6: begin this hour on a frost brewed Corse Light Choose
2:53
Speaker 6: Chill Monday by giving you your frost brewed cors Light
2:57
Speaker 6: Choose Chill headlines. Of course, we start with Seahawks thirty
3:01
Speaker 6: one twenty seven over the Los Angeles Rams. Sam Donald
3:05
Speaker 6: three touchdown passes, three d and forty six passing yards
3:09
Speaker 6: leading the Seahawks to the victory.
3:12
Speaker 2: But all sorts of stars all over the place.
3:15
Speaker 6: JSN was just absolutely phenomenal last night. Devin Witherspoon with
3:20
Speaker 6: the two pass breakups on that key situation where the
3:24
Speaker 6: Rams went for it obviously on third and goal from
3:27
Speaker 6: the four, but then fourth and goal from the four.
3:29
Speaker 6: Nick Emon Worri authored a couple of I'm just going
3:33
Speaker 6: to take this game over possessions.
3:36
Speaker 2: During the course of the game.
3:38
Speaker 6: Also, you had the Cooper Cups stretching it out, getting
3:41
Speaker 6: that first down, that key first down that kept the
3:45
Speaker 6: drive alive and allowed Sam Donald and the Seahawks to
3:49
Speaker 6: melt some time off the clock, only leaving Matt Stafford
3:52
Speaker 6: just a few precious seconds to go the length of
3:55
Speaker 6: the field at the.
3:56
Speaker 2: End of the game.
3:56
Speaker 6: And how about something we haven't discussed, Clint and Mike
4:00
Speaker 6: McDonald just saying, hey, I know, this is usually the
4:04
Speaker 6: time where you're just supposed to run the ball and
4:06
Speaker 6: melt clock. Sam's on such a roll right now, He's
4:10
Speaker 6: playing with such confidence. We're going to throw the ball.
4:12
Speaker 6: I mean, they got two first downs. Throwing the damn
4:14
Speaker 6: football on that drive to crush more of the clock.
4:17
Speaker 6: I mean even that, I mean that's a huge feather
4:21
Speaker 6: in Sam's cap last night, not just the statistics, but
4:24
Speaker 6: for his offensive coordinator to say, our faith is in
4:28
Speaker 6: you fourteen, Well, you need to go do that.
4:31
Speaker 8: I mean, that's the you want to win a Super Bowl.
4:34
Speaker 8: You cannot sit back and say let's just run out
4:36
Speaker 8: a few times and try to take you a minute
4:38
Speaker 8: fifteen off the clock and then hand it over to
4:41
Speaker 8: Matt Stafford. You need to win, and if you're going
4:45
Speaker 8: to give him the ball, it better be in less
4:46
Speaker 8: than a minute, and preferably less than thirty seconds. That's
4:50
Speaker 8: your only chance because if they had a minute, not
4:52
Speaker 8: twenty seconds when they had that ball, there's a better
4:56
Speaker 8: chance they get down there.
4:58
Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure.
4:59
Speaker 6: They take on the Seahawks the New England Patriots in
5:02
Speaker 6: the Super Bowl.
5:04
Speaker 2: That sounds familiar.
5:05
Speaker 6: New England won literally in a blizzard, not even exaggerating there.
5:10
Speaker 6: That blizzard hit in the second half of the AFC
5:13
Speaker 6: Championship game, and the Patriots did just enough to defeat
5:18
Speaker 6: the Denver Broncos ten to seven, the final score.
5:21
Speaker 2: So Super Bowl sixty, which will be played.
5:23
Speaker 6: Sunday, February eighth, will be between the Seattle Seahawks and
5:27
Speaker 6: the New England Patriots.
5:29
Speaker 2: Just a couple of other quick stories.
5:31
Speaker 6: You dub won a big game seventy two fifty seven
5:33
Speaker 6: over Oregon yesterday on the college basketball Hardwood. U double
5:38
Speaker 6: next face Illinois on Thursday. Who's playing as well as
5:41
Speaker 6: anyone in the country. U Doub's got four games between
5:45
Speaker 6: now and Super Bowl Sunday, So nice opportunity to get
5:48
Speaker 6: a little bit of attention here. The next couple of
5:51
Speaker 6: weeks and the Kraken have now won two out of three.
5:55
Speaker 6: They defeated the Devils four to two. New Jersey is
5:58
Speaker 6: the Devils to two, the final score cracking over New
6:02
Speaker 6: Jersey and so winners of two of their last three games.
6:06
Speaker 6: In between there, Lane Lambert said they played their worst
6:09
Speaker 6: game of the year and a loss against the Anaheim Ducks,
6:11
Speaker 6: So this team really can't figure out who they are.
6:14
Speaker 6: They'll next face the Washington Capitals tomorrow night at Climate
6:18
Speaker 6: Pledge Arena. All right, let's talk to Greg with the
6:21
Speaker 6: bell tolls.
6:23
Speaker 1: It must be seven o'clock and time for twelfth Man
6:26
Speaker 1: News with Greg Bell, brought to you by Copola Diamond
6:29
Speaker 1: Collection Prosecco, Chris Sparkling with Bright Fruit flavors to make
6:33
Speaker 1: every toast shine game day bubbles only with Copola Diamond Prosecco.
6:39
Speaker 1: Now with twelfth Man News, here's Greg Bell with Chuck.
6:42
Speaker 6: And Budd, just your average run of the mill heading
6:46
Speaker 6: out to the field to watch the local game.
6:49
Speaker 2: Last night, Right, Greg.
6:52
Speaker 7: It was pretty loud. Wow, it was louder than last week.
6:56
Speaker 7: And last week was as loud as it was since
6:58
Speaker 7: the leading the boom in fourteen days. And yeah, it helped,
7:04
Speaker 7: It really did help. The environment was off the hook,
7:07
Speaker 7: and the players, the coaches and everybody talked about that
7:12
Speaker 7: on top of everything else. Yeah, yeah, it was a
7:14
Speaker 7: big deal.
7:15
Speaker 6: And the players rewarded the energy in the atmosphere with
7:20
Speaker 6: one of the better games you'll ever see. I mean,
7:23
Speaker 6: that was some fantastic stuff from beginning to end.
7:25
Speaker 7: Greg it was and Sam Donald was brilliant. The biggest
7:32
Speaker 7: game of his life and he played the best game
7:34
Speaker 7: of his life at three and forty six yards, three touchdowns.
7:39
Speaker 7: You mentioned no turnovers. How long I've been saying is
7:44
Speaker 7: he doesn't turn the ball over, They're going to go
7:46
Speaker 7: to the super Bowl. They're gonna win the super Bowl.
7:48
Speaker 7: They're going to the super Bowl because of him, not
7:50
Speaker 7: just because he didn't turn it over, but he won
7:53
Speaker 7: the game. And his touchdown passes with guys in his face,
7:59
Speaker 7: in his legs hitting him, it was. The three touchdown
8:06
Speaker 7: throws were incredible plays. Just standing in the face injured,
8:12
Speaker 7: knowing every hit he took is hurting him, whether it
8:15
Speaker 7: was to the ground or not. He was going to
8:17
Speaker 7: get hurt, not hit, but hurt every time he got hit,
8:21
Speaker 7: and he stood in it. The one to Bobo I
8:24
Speaker 7: he was getting cocked from the side that he was
8:28
Speaker 7: hurt on his left oblique. The one to Smith's and
8:32
Speaker 7: Jiga the same way. He had to stand in there
8:35
Speaker 7: to wait for Smith and Jigba Clint Kubiak did a
8:39
Speaker 7: brilliant job on that play. In particular, he sent the
8:43
Speaker 7: first touchdown to Smith and Jigbab they were in too
8:47
Speaker 7: deep coverage, and he sent Rashichhahed to blow out the
8:52
Speaker 7: back of that top the two deep safety coverage to
8:56
Speaker 7: that side of the end zone with his speed, and
8:59
Speaker 7: then he had Cooper Cup into the left flout running
9:01
Speaker 7: at the corner. And what that created was Jackson Jackson said,
9:05
Speaker 7: the jig with the NFL's best receiver against the linebacker,
9:08
Speaker 7: and that was Kyle Kubiak Clint Kulbek doing that. But
9:12
Speaker 7: all of that only worked because Sam Donald stood in
9:16
Speaker 7: and let Kobe Turner get right into his face mask
9:19
Speaker 7: before he threw the ball. Sam Donald was incredible last night,
9:25
Speaker 7: and Witherspoon, Devin Wiersmon told me at his locker, probably
9:30
Speaker 7: very apt. He said, all those people doubt and y'all
9:34
Speaker 7: need to look yourselves in the mirror, bro, because there's
9:38
Speaker 7: no reason to doubt Sam Donald. The biggest stage, he
9:41
Speaker 7: was the best.
9:42
Speaker 8: He obviously, yeah, stepped up to the occasion, and that
9:45
Speaker 8: I agree for all those that wanted to just hate
9:47
Speaker 8: on how he came into the league or the fact
9:50
Speaker 8: that he had a bad game against the Rams earlier
9:52
Speaker 8: this season. I think it's time for them to kind
9:54
Speaker 8: of just sit down and watch. But I mean, how
9:57
Speaker 8: much of the game plan was to rely on him,
10:02
Speaker 8: or did they because I don't think that they expected to,
10:06
Speaker 8: you know, give up over a thousand yards to this
10:09
Speaker 8: team the last couple times and go to and oh
10:12
Speaker 8: against them. I don't think that's the way in which
10:13
Speaker 8: they wrote it up. But it did look like as
10:16
Speaker 8: the game was playing out that they did recognize this
10:19
Speaker 8: Rams offense is really good. We're not going to hold
10:22
Speaker 8: them down, and so we're gonna have to kind of
10:24
Speaker 8: go punch for punch with them. As far as Donald
10:27
Speaker 8: answering back every time Stafford went out there and put
10:30
Speaker 8: up points, Yeah.
10:31
Speaker 7: I think Kubiak and McDonald saw the Rams defense and
10:35
Speaker 7: thought we can beat these guys. Did they play? And
10:39
Speaker 7: I mentioned last week, I thought they were going to
10:41
Speaker 7: open it up, and I thought that they were plays
10:44
Speaker 7: to be made in the Rams secondary. The problem was
10:47
Speaker 7: the pass protection, and it wasn't always there last night either,
10:51
Speaker 7: But in the running game last night didn't really take hold,
10:54
Speaker 7: but early in the game it was a factor, and
10:57
Speaker 7: you see the final number seventy five yards rushing. But
11:00
Speaker 7: in the first half, especially in the first quarter, they
11:03
Speaker 7: were running the ball at will and it did slow
11:07
Speaker 7: down their pass rush for about half the game. But Yeah,
11:12
Speaker 7: the confidence they've had in Darnold throughout. Yeah, he's twenty
11:16
Speaker 7: turnovers leading the NFL. So well, we're going to keep
11:18
Speaker 7: pushing the ball down the field. Showed up again last night.
11:21
Speaker 7: We're going to keep pushing them all down the field.
11:23
Speaker 7: We're gonna trust our quarterback not to make mistakes, and
11:26
Speaker 7: he did not, And it's just trust. Trust with the teammates,
11:30
Speaker 7: trusted the coaching staff is play caller, a lot of trust.
11:34
Speaker 7: That is beyond the fact that he's only been here
11:36
Speaker 7: since April. He signed in whatever March, but he didn't
11:40
Speaker 7: get on the field to April. That to me is
11:42
Speaker 7: the most impressive thing. They are trusting him and calling
11:46
Speaker 7: plays for him as if he's been here a decade,
11:49
Speaker 7: and it speaks to how much they have faith in
11:51
Speaker 7: him so quickly. That's one of the most impressive things
11:54
Speaker 7: about him.
11:55
Speaker 6: Hey, I mean, you bring up a great point in
11:57
Speaker 6: one that we have not yet discussed. I mean, I
11:59
Speaker 6: thought Matt Stafford was sensational last night as well, and
12:03
Speaker 6: statistically they were pretty much on par, but Stafford's protection
12:08
Speaker 6: versus Sam's protection kind of were night and day. I
12:10
Speaker 6: couldn't believe the clean pockets that Matt Stafford was getting
12:14
Speaker 6: throughout the game, especially there in the second half, and man,
12:19
Speaker 6: it looked like they were up against it defensively there
12:22
Speaker 6: towards the end of the game. So Greg talk about
12:25
Speaker 6: the two plays that Devin Witherspoon made against Stafford and
12:29
Speaker 6: the pass game there in the fourth quarter that pretty
12:33
Speaker 6: much saved the game at that point.
12:36
Speaker 7: Well, first, they only blitzed my mic count John Manly,
12:39
Speaker 7: my distribute colleague sitting next to he was tracking it.
12:42
Speaker 7: They only blitzed five times, and three of the five
12:45
Speaker 7: times became big plays by Stafford, which underlined why McDonald
12:50
Speaker 7: wasn't blitzing. So they were only rushing for and five
12:54
Speaker 7: rams were beating four all night in pass protection and
12:59
Speaker 7: then the beat seven men covering. That's how good it
13:03
Speaker 7: Stafford in the COUPA in particular, and Devin Adams a
13:06
Speaker 7: couple of players were, but Witherspoon did not have a
13:10
Speaker 7: good game by his standards. He admitted that after the game.
13:13
Speaker 7: But during the game, I was noting he missed a
13:16
Speaker 7: couple tackles early, he had passes completed on him, a coupled.
13:21
Speaker 2: In the coupa tripped a couple of times.
13:24
Speaker 7: He was tripping himself after these plays. He was slamming
13:28
Speaker 7: himself in the helmet and his thigh pads, and he
13:31
Speaker 7: was upset with himself for most of that game, and
13:33
Speaker 7: he talked about in the locker room after With the
13:36
Speaker 7: game of the line no, he broke up the pass
13:39
Speaker 7: to Mumpfield on the right side of the end zone.
13:43
Speaker 7: That play had no chance. Once the ball left Stafford's hands,
13:46
Speaker 7: Witherston was all over. And the fourth down play that
13:50
Speaker 7: was the Rams wanted to go to Kayen Williams out
13:55
Speaker 7: of the left flat, and the Seahawks dropped eight in
14:00
Speaker 7: the coverage on that play. I don't know if they
14:02
Speaker 7: meant to. I'm gonna ask McDonald after this afternoon about that.
14:06
Speaker 7: They usually don't drop eight. They usually rush at least four,
14:10
Speaker 7: but two of them drop eight, dropped onto Kiren Williams,
14:15
Speaker 7: and I don't know if that was a mistake either.
14:17
Speaker 7: But the primary receiver on that play got double covered,
14:21
Speaker 7: which the Seahawks rarely do. I mean double covered in man,
14:24
Speaker 7: which the Seahawks rarely do. But then that was still
14:29
Speaker 7: left six against four and in tight spaces, that's a
14:33
Speaker 7: tough deal for the offense, and that's what happened. Stafford
14:37
Speaker 7: wanted to go to his left, had nowhere to go
14:39
Speaker 7: with the ball by the time he looked back to Ferguson.
14:42
Speaker 7: Terrence Ferguson's tight end running right the left across the
14:44
Speaker 7: back of the end zone. Devin Witherspoon was running the
14:47
Speaker 7: route for Ferguson. He broke the end route before Ferguson
14:50
Speaker 7: brookeby in round and was in fact inside of the
14:53
Speaker 7: tight end when Stafford threw the ball. Stafford looked like
14:57
Speaker 7: he was throwing the Witherspoon. He Witherspoon was sold open
15:00
Speaker 7: on the play. I asked him, why did you run
15:03
Speaker 7: that route for him? He said, I knew from earlier
15:07
Speaker 7: in the game they ran Ferguson excuse me, a seven
15:11
Speaker 7: route meaning a flag round outbreaking to the back corner
15:15
Speaker 7: of the end zone, and he said, I covered that
15:17
Speaker 7: one too, so I thought they were going to probably
15:20
Speaker 7: come the opposite way because they saw me so aggressive
15:22
Speaker 7: on the seven cut. He played chess before they even
15:26
Speaker 7: snapped the ball. He knew when he had the inside
15:29
Speaker 7: coverage on the tight end, if the tight end was
15:31
Speaker 7: going to break the en zone, he's going to break
15:32
Speaker 7: in instead of out because he had broken out and
15:34
Speaker 7: failed earlier. Witherspoon was right. Makes the two biggest plays
15:39
Speaker 7: and then the four minute drive from heaven. I mean,
15:43
Speaker 7: you mentioned that Kubiak was so aggressive. Do you talk
15:46
Speaker 7: about trust in the quarterback? Super Bowl and season on
15:50
Speaker 7: the line, They're running rollout passes with a guy with
15:52
Speaker 7: a bat o bleak instead of bleeding clock, and Bucky's
15:55
Speaker 7: exactly right. They did not want to give the ball
15:58
Speaker 7: back to Stafford with any time on the clock anywhere
16:01
Speaker 7: near midfield. He would have beaten them. And I think
16:05
Speaker 7: they knew that, And that's why McVeigh went for it
16:08
Speaker 7: on fourth and four because he was certain they were
16:11
Speaker 7: going to get right back down there pretty soon before
16:14
Speaker 7: the game ended.
16:15
Speaker 8: Well, it's nice when you as far as an offensive
16:18
Speaker 8: play caller, when you have a guy that was playing
16:21
Speaker 8: as confidently as Sam was yesterday, and he gets to
16:23
Speaker 8: play confidently because he has a guy called Jackson Smith
16:26
Speaker 8: and Jigba who apparently is either going to be left
16:30
Speaker 8: open by the defense or he's impossible to cover. I mean,
16:34
Speaker 8: is Chuck Wright. Should they just say, all right, who
16:37
Speaker 8: makes the most right now as a receiver. Here's a
16:39
Speaker 8: little bit more than that.
16:42
Speaker 7: Yeah, Well he's due for a contract next year, next summer,
16:46
Speaker 7: and they just come back to bringstruck up Amazon and
16:50
Speaker 7: everybody else in town, Microsoft and everybody else to contribute
16:53
Speaker 7: to that contract. Look, he has been fantastic with his
16:58
Speaker 7: route running. His body could controls, keeping defenders on his back,
17:02
Speaker 7: as he did a couple times last night. Not to
17:05
Speaker 7: take any credit away from him, but the guy throwing
17:09
Speaker 7: his passes got him eighteen hundred yards this year. Sam
17:12
Speaker 7: Donald has been so trusting of him, throwing when he's covered,
17:17
Speaker 7: throwing when there's a receiver on his back, lofting it
17:20
Speaker 7: and saying, well, he'll make the adjustment on the ball,
17:22
Speaker 7: he'll slow down and keep the defender on his back
17:24
Speaker 7: and he'll catch this. Donald just again, It's like Donald's
17:28
Speaker 7: been here ten years playing with Smith and Jigba. They've
17:31
Speaker 7: been playing together for ten months and as an uncanny
17:36
Speaker 7: knack they have for trusting each other. His body control
17:40
Speaker 7: is just to lead. I could go on for the
17:43
Speaker 7: rest of time talking about Sam Donald yesterday's game. That
17:46
Speaker 7: was one of the best quarterback performances in the clutchest moment.
17:50
Speaker 7: That was Tom Brady like he was incredible yesterday.
17:54
Speaker 2: Yeah.
17:56
Speaker 6: You know who did not have a great moment was
17:58
Speaker 6: Reek Wollen And so I thought the game was over
18:03
Speaker 6: and Riek Woollen decided to open the door for the
18:06
Speaker 6: Los Angeles Rams. There was a little altercation. Emon warri
18:09
Speaker 6: looked like he was wolfing at him over there on
18:12
Speaker 6: the sideline.
18:14
Speaker 7: It sounds looked like he was. He was worry got
18:17
Speaker 7: in his mug. Two guys, two guys to separate even Warrior,
18:22
Speaker 7: a rookie from a Pro Bowl veteran. It took Iris
18:27
Speaker 7: Jones and Kobe Bryant. Ernest Jones laughed about it after
18:31
Speaker 7: the game about how he had to play the keasekeeper there.
18:33
Speaker 7: But oh yeah, I'm sorry to interrupted Emon Warrey absolutely
18:37
Speaker 7: hit him up.
18:37
Speaker 6: Well, yeah, I'm looking for the insight, you know, uh,
18:41
Speaker 6: to what happened in that situation, how guys were reacting
18:44
Speaker 6: to it afterwards and if everything's okay going forward, because
18:48
Speaker 6: I don't know a lot of Seahawk fans of Trustreek
18:50
Speaker 6: Woolan in the Super Bowl stage right now, Man, he would.
18:54
Speaker 7: Have been this. He may still be for what he
18:56
Speaker 7: did anyway, but he made He would have been one
18:59
Speaker 7: of the big goats in Seattle sports history. They lost
19:02
Speaker 7: that game. Look the sidelines official told it. You could
19:07
Speaker 7: see him from the press box. You could see the
19:09
Speaker 7: sideline officials going to walk away walk so to speak.
19:12
Speaker 7: I don't know those exact words, walk away, walk away,
19:15
Speaker 7: and Woolen did the exact opposite of that. He walked
19:18
Speaker 7: to the rams sideline, got into the white paint. He
19:22
Speaker 7: was John with him bobbing his head. Just walk back
19:25
Speaker 7: to the huddle. The NFL officials are pretty okay with
19:29
Speaker 7: celebrations after plays as long as you don't direct it
19:32
Speaker 7: toward an opponent. That's the rule, that's the way it's written.
19:35
Speaker 7: So taunting by penalty is when you direct it directly
19:39
Speaker 7: at an opponent, you can do anything you want as
19:42
Speaker 7: long as you're turned away from an opponent and facing
19:44
Speaker 7: someone else or celebrating with your team. All he'd do
19:47
Speaker 7: is do a ninety degree for even a forty five
19:49
Speaker 7: degree shoulder turn. He doesn't get a penalty there. The
19:52
Speaker 7: official doesn't want to call that penalty. But when you
19:55
Speaker 7: tell him over and over again to get back to
19:57
Speaker 7: the huddle, and he instead parades down the line like
20:00
Speaker 7: he's passing in review in one of my old military
20:02
Speaker 7: parades in front of the other team's bench. Many officials
20:08
Speaker 7: are gonna throw that flag. That was an absolutely warranted penalty.
20:12
Speaker 7: That will learned. And yeah, that's me before team, which
20:17
Speaker 7: is the exact opposite of the Mike McDonald ethos, and
20:21
Speaker 7: so it's got the opposite away you get to a
20:22
Speaker 7: super Bowl. To his credit, my buddy John may I
20:26
Speaker 7: was still in the press conferences, but John Manley was
20:28
Speaker 7: in the locker room. Riquel unknown that after the game,
20:32
Speaker 7: and I can't do that selfish play, stood up, talked
20:35
Speaker 7: about it. Give him a lot of credit for that.
20:38
Speaker 7: There are a lot of guys older than he that
20:39
Speaker 7: would not have done that. And does locker publicly owned that?
20:43
Speaker 7: But yeah, even Worry after the game, I talked to him.
20:47
Speaker 7: He said, we're brothers. He's like a big brother to me.
20:50
Speaker 7: We're competitive. That's the way it is, you know how
20:52
Speaker 7: it is a championship game. We're cool now, they're cool
20:56
Speaker 7: because they won. But it's all good now and we
21:00
Speaker 7: move on. But it showed me a lot about nick
21:04
Speaker 7: Emon Worry in his place already in the best defense
21:07
Speaker 7: in the NFL on a Super Bowl team to what
21:10
Speaker 7: he went absolutely nuclear on requeling on the sideline.
21:15
Speaker 2: I think he was speaking on behalf of.
21:17
Speaker 7: All yeah, channeling, channeling anyone who's ever worn green in
21:22
Speaker 7: Portland blue before. I mean, that was just, yeah, you're right.
21:28
Speaker 7: I could feel the Yanks from the entire Pacific Northwest. Yeah,
21:32
Speaker 7: coming into that stadium. That was. That would have been rough.
21:36
Speaker 7: If we were talking this morning about a lot, that
21:39
Speaker 7: would be rough. It makes you wonder. It makes you
21:42
Speaker 7: wonder what John Schneider and Mike McDonald's think about requeal
21:45
Speaker 7: in his future. He's contract is ending. He's played so
21:48
Speaker 7: well at times this season, breaking himself off of the benching,
21:53
Speaker 7: yet he still does stuff like that and that almost
21:56
Speaker 7: repeated their season. That's it's a consideration for sure. Whose
22:01
Speaker 7: contract is ending? Speaking like contracts ending, how would you
22:05
Speaker 7: like to be Kenneth Walker's five day old agent right now?
22:09
Speaker 7: My goodness. In the first it was the Kenneth Walker
22:12
Speaker 7: Show in the first.
22:13
Speaker 6: Half, Yeah, no doubt, all right, in our last minute
22:16
Speaker 6: and man, I wanted to get into cup and all.
22:18
Speaker 2: Sorts of things here, but the Cup was brilliant.
22:20
Speaker 7: Yep, yep.
22:21
Speaker 6: I just got thirty seconds, forty five seconds to just
22:25
Speaker 6: your first thoughts on a Patriots the Seahawks super Bowl.
22:29
Speaker 7: This is the first time since two thousand and three
22:31
Speaker 7: that neither team had been in the playoffs the previous
22:33
Speaker 7: year making the Super Bowl. It's only the sixth time
22:35
Speaker 7: and sixty Super Bowls that two teams that didn't make
22:38
Speaker 7: the playoffs the year before making it. Guys, this is
22:43
Speaker 7: a little early, a little maybe two over the top.
22:46
Speaker 7: The Seahawks are going to kill him. They might beat him.
22:48
Speaker 7: They might beat him by three touchdowns. I think they
22:51
Speaker 7: have an offense that will beat New England's defense from
22:53
Speaker 7: when I've watched the Patriots and I don't see the
22:57
Speaker 7: Drake may beating the Seahawks and Mike McDonald's defense with
23:00
Speaker 7: the Super Bowl. AT's stake the defense if they're not
23:04
Speaker 7: named Matt Stafford and Sean McVay, they're shutting them down.
23:07
Speaker 7: I think they and Dave obviously mcdonnald has some issues
23:10
Speaker 7: in his own division, yet here he is in the
23:12
Speaker 7: Super Bowl. But yeah, the rematch very familiar. Last time
23:17
Speaker 7: they're in a Super Bowl, this was the matchup. But
23:19
Speaker 7: the Patriots don't have Tom Brady coming out the Super
23:22
Speaker 7: Bowl for them in two weeks.
23:24
Speaker 6: All right, man, great stuff, as always appreciate it.
23:26

26:20
Speaker 2: But thank you.
26:21
Speaker 7: I need to say this.
26:22
Speaker 3: Back in October, Seattle fans, we were eight outs away
26:26
Speaker 3: from the World Series. Our hearts were broken. The Seahawks
26:31
Speaker 3: have redeemed that loss with one freaking win and we're
26:38
Speaker 3: just two weeks away from topping it off with a
26:41
Speaker 3: Super Bowl championship. And I'm gonna say this, last night
26:45
Speaker 3: was the first time in my life that I loved
26:47
Speaker 3: working the night Ship. I worked the ramp at Sea
26:50
Speaker 3: Tach Airport because I got to see those freaking loser Rams.
26:55
Speaker 7: Get on their airplane and head back to California.
26:59
Speaker 3: Take in the lost. And I'm gonna channel my entertained
27:03
Speaker 3: softy Maller. We're going to the freaking super Ball by.
27:09
Speaker 7: Love it.
27:09
Speaker 6: Thank you, Mike, appreciate it. Oh that's a perfect call
27:12
Speaker 6: to get us started right. There're going to the freaking
27:15
Speaker 6: super Bowl.
27:15
Speaker 8: And yes, not many times are people pumped about working
27:19
Speaker 8: on a Sunday or night shift on a Sunday.
27:21
Speaker 2: But he found the silver lining.
27:23
Speaker 7: You can.
27:23
Speaker 8: I can just picture him down there, knee pads on,
27:26
Speaker 8: just waving the Rams hands like I'll put his thumb
27:30
Speaker 8: in the index finger up and is a loser.
27:32
Speaker 2: Come here, I want to lick your face. I'm gonna
27:34
Speaker 2: taste your tears.
27:35
Speaker 6: Yeah, let's go to Mill Creek and talk to Cooper.
27:39
Speaker 9: Cooper, Yeah, I talk him, Buck.
27:45
Speaker 3: I'm so excited that the the off on the super Bowl.
27:48
Speaker 2: Yeah, tell me about it.
27:51
Speaker 6: Right now.
27:52
Speaker 5: I'm watching the replay and listening to the radio because
27:55
Speaker 5: I got a day off of school, and I'm just
27:59
Speaker 5: so like, oh, they love the super Bowl?
28:04
Speaker 6: How about that?
28:04
Speaker 7: Man?
28:05
Speaker 6: Can you believe it? I mean this, how old are you?
28:09
Speaker 6: Ten years old? So you don't remember the last time
28:13
Speaker 6: they were at the super Bowl?
28:14
Speaker 2: That barely times out? You might not even been born yet.
28:19
Speaker 8: No, no, no pain, then.
28:22
Speaker 7: No pain.
28:23
Speaker 6: All joy Cooper, enjoy it man, thanks for calling us.
28:26
Speaker 2: We appreciate it.
28:29
Speaker 7: Thank you.
28:30
Speaker 2: All right, Hawk, go Hawks? All right, Cooper and mill Creek.
28:34
Speaker 2: Look at that ten years old. Been a long drought
28:36
Speaker 2: for Cooper.
28:37
Speaker 7: Yeah.
28:38
Speaker 2: Yeah, his entire life.
28:39
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's been a whole decade of life he's lived,
28:42
Speaker 8: and finally she's gotten to the super Bowl.
28:46
Speaker 6: Let's go to Bob and seattlek morning Bob, Hey.
28:50
Speaker 10: Good morning Chucking Buck.
28:51
Speaker 7: Thanks so much.
28:51
Speaker 10: You guys do such a great job. It's fun I
28:53
Speaker 10: want to talk up briefly about the twelve three things.
28:57
Speaker 10: One our seed. So we've been twenty years season things
29:01
Speaker 10: O where our seats are right next to the visitor
29:03
Speaker 10: tunnel and there were hardly any Rams Jerseys. There's usually
29:07
Speaker 10: a bunch of visitor Jersey in that area, So awesome
29:10
Speaker 10: for guys not selling their tickets. Number two, the fourth
29:16
Speaker 10: down play in the fourth quarter, where we really needed
29:18
Speaker 10: that stop on the Rams. I can tell you it
29:21
Speaker 10: was noisy when our seats are right there. Oh my god,
29:27
Speaker 10: I think I'm deaf this morning.
29:28
Speaker 7: It was amazing.
29:29
Speaker 10: And number three, I really appreciate as a twelve the
29:34
Speaker 10: thanks that were given by virtually everybody of that postgame
29:37
Speaker 10: ceremony and then the interviews afterwards. You can really tell
29:41
Speaker 10: that the Hawks players, coaches, staff really appreciate the twelve
29:46
Speaker 10: ninety two.
29:47
Speaker 7: So go Hawks, all.
29:49
Speaker 6: Right, Bob, thanks man, great call. Appreciate it. I think
29:52
Speaker 6: that Mike McDonald continuously is surprised by I mean, he
29:57
Speaker 6: knew the reputation of the twelves, and then he was
30:00
Speaker 6: kind of told embrace the twelves, and then all of
30:03
Speaker 6: a sudden he experienced the twelves. And last night you
30:07
Speaker 6: can guarantee you that was coming from a real place
30:12
Speaker 6: when he got up on the podium and was pretty
30:15
Speaker 6: much like speechless. I don't even know what to say
30:17
Speaker 6: about this crowd support. It is un flipping believable, was
30:22
Speaker 6: pretty much the words that came out of coach McDonald's
30:25
Speaker 6: mouth on the podium getting ready to accept the trophy.
30:29
Speaker 8: Well, I mean, you know, usually Vegas has It's crazy
30:32
Speaker 8: how close Vegas has the point totals and the spreads, right,
30:37
Speaker 8: I mean, it seems like they're pretty durned close to
30:39
Speaker 8: nail and that thing all the time, and they always
30:41
Speaker 8: go three points typically, so the home field is typically
30:44
Speaker 8: around three points.
30:45
Speaker 2: I mean, if you think.
30:46
Speaker 8: About it, there is a direct correlation between them not
30:50
Speaker 8: being able to try to kick a field goal, which
30:52
Speaker 8: is much easier in a noisy environment than trying to
30:54
Speaker 8: go for it on third and fourth down because you're
30:56
Speaker 8: up by four it. I mean, there's something to it,
30:59
Speaker 8: for sure, and I know that all my friends, being
31:02
Speaker 8: Seahawks fans, they take pride in the fact that there's
31:05
Speaker 8: something too coming to play in their stadium, that they're
31:08
Speaker 8: going to try to have as much of an impact
31:10
Speaker 8: as they possibly can, and at times it most certainly
31:13
Speaker 8: plays out that way.
31:14
Speaker 6: They're about three I think, three fan bases, three stadiums
31:16
Speaker 6: in the National Football League where they can't the broadcasters
31:20
Speaker 6: can't stop talking about it. If they can't stop talking
31:23
Speaker 6: about it, then that's how big of an impact it makes.
31:26
Speaker 6: And I think Seattle is one of those three. So
31:29
Speaker 6: well done, well done yesterday. You certainly played your role twelves.
31:33
Speaker 6: All right, let's go to Maple Valley and talk to Michael. Michael,
31:36
Speaker 6: good morning.
31:38
Speaker 5: Good morning. Unbelievable, what a great day, what a great year.
31:42
Speaker 5: I just can't believe. It just feels like compared to
31:45
Speaker 5: other Super Bowls, this came up on us so quick.
31:48
Speaker 5: And how can you not talk about John Snyder, what
31:52
Speaker 5: an unbelievable year and decades he'd had with the Seahawks.
31:56
Speaker 5: First GM to take two teams to the Super Bowl
31:59
Speaker 5: that don't have this same players left on it, not
32:01
Speaker 5: a single player left from the other Super Bowl team.
32:05
Speaker 5: And thank you Minnesota Vikings for giving up on Sam Darnold.
32:08
Speaker 5: I mean, how could that gem have fallen to us.
32:11
Speaker 5: One of the things too, that I was going to
32:13
Speaker 5: point out you guys talked about it earlier, was the
32:16
Speaker 5: end of the game with Cooper Cup reaching over to
32:18
Speaker 5: get the first down. Sean McVeigh. They actually had two
32:21
Speaker 5: timeouts left and McVeigh called a timeout. Yea wasted a timeout,
32:25
Speaker 5: waited to see if he wanted to take the challenge it.
32:28
Speaker 5: I don't know why he didn't just challenge it, but
32:30
Speaker 5: I am grateful that he didn't just decide to challenge it.
32:33
Speaker 7: Start.
32:33
Speaker 5: He wasted both timeouts or one timeout and only had
32:36
Speaker 5: one left. Go Hawks, Go super Bowl. Unbelievable.
32:39
Speaker 6: All right, congratulations Michael, happy for you. Man yep going
32:43
Speaker 6: to the Super Bowl. And man, John Schneider has to
32:46
Speaker 6: be pointed out. I mean, this marriage between I and
32:50
Speaker 6: Mike McDonald has been just about as seamless as it
32:53
Speaker 6: could be, Maybe a couple of little warts at the beginning,
32:55
Speaker 6: where Mike kind of had to go with him halfway
32:58
Speaker 6: through the season last year and say I.
33:00
Speaker 2: Don't really like the linebackers.
33:02
Speaker 6: You got me, and they kind of had to work
33:05
Speaker 6: through that. But then when they got on the same page,
33:08
Speaker 6: my goodness. I mean, in just their second year, what
33:11
Speaker 6: head coach and general manager are on a better page
33:13
Speaker 6: than what these two are. I think John Schneider has
33:16
Speaker 6: had two perfect years without easy decisions to make. Those
33:20
Speaker 6: are all really difficult decisions to make. And it's as
33:23
Speaker 6: if he's aced the test back to back years. Unbelievable
33:27
Speaker 6: what John Schneider has done these last two years. All right,
33:29
Speaker 6: let's go to Usnowhomish and Mike Hey, Mike, hey, guys,
33:34
Speaker 6: thank you for taking my call, letting me speak.
33:36
Speaker 7: Go see.
33:38
Speaker 11: Yeah, so I got two things to say.
33:42
Speaker 7: I'm an older guy.
33:43
Speaker 11: I've been following them while they were founded in seventy four,
33:46
Speaker 11: and I've been following them seventy six. I've seen the
33:49
Speaker 11: AFC Championship where they lost. I've been through the tears,
33:54
Speaker 11: the joys, all that stuff. But number two, we all
33:59
Speaker 11: know a weird stat for you.
34:03
Speaker 9: We know about the popes being elected and Seahawks going
34:07
Speaker 9: to the Super Bowl. How about this? This is a
34:09
Speaker 9: crazy one. Bill Belichick was hired by the Patriots after
34:14
Speaker 9: Pete Carroll was fired. Took him two seasons to go
34:17
Speaker 9: to the Super Bowl, and he won it. What about
34:20
Speaker 9: Mike McDonald After two years Pete mccar Pete Carroll was fired,
34:25
Speaker 9: Mike McDonald's now going to the Super Bowl. Will he
34:28
Speaker 9: win it? I believe he will.
34:30
Speaker 6: Oh, I love this team.
34:32
Speaker 3: Yeah, Seahawks.
34:35
Speaker 2: I love this team too. This is a team to love.
34:38
Speaker 6: And I think what Mike and stahomis just trying to
34:40
Speaker 6: say is that the Seahawks are on the right, on
34:43
Speaker 6: the verge of a dynasty.
34:45
Speaker 2: I think that's what he's trying to say.
34:47
Speaker 6: Seven championships, That's what he was hinting at.
34:52
Speaker 8: I think, yeah, sure, I bet he would like to
34:55
Speaker 8: go there. I think most people listening would love it.
34:58
Speaker 8: If this is just one of we got time for
35:01
Speaker 8: one more. Let's go to Bertram and Bonnie Lake. Bertram,
35:04
Speaker 8: our friend, Bertram.
35:05
Speaker 2: How are you man? How are you feeling this morning?
35:08
Speaker 12: I'm feeling fantastic, Chuck Bucky, Hello, Hello Ashley, fantastic. The
35:18
Speaker 12: thing that's wild was I went to the game last
35:20
Speaker 12: weekend and got to experience, like, you know, just all
35:25
Speaker 12: the fields of a dominating like playoff performance. But after that,
35:31
Speaker 12: I got on the plane to go to Iowa and
35:34
Speaker 12: I'm looking to move there.
35:35
Speaker 13: Anyways, long story short, the I had to fly into
35:40
Speaker 13: Denver last night, and so all around the bar where
35:45
Speaker 13: I was trying to watch the second half of the game,
35:47
Speaker 13: we're just dejected Broco fans. And as someone that was
35:53
Speaker 13: you know, like in old AFC West, you know, like
35:56
Speaker 13: and just to sit sit there and sit in it
36:00
Speaker 13: and just see that just from a perspective. That wasn't
36:02
Speaker 13: in Seattle, but that was in a bar and Denver
36:06
Speaker 13: and just to witness it was it was fantastic. It
36:10
Speaker 13: was it. It's probably one of the like this year,
36:15
Speaker 13: like especially with the Mariners and now you know with
36:18
Speaker 13: the Seahawks, it's probably been one of the best sports
36:21
Speaker 13: years of all time. So I just wanted to say
36:24
Speaker 13: it was fantastic just to see it from that other,
36:27
Speaker 13: you know.
36:27
Speaker 7: Perspective and just to sit there. Bucky.
36:30
Speaker 6: Sorry, Yeah, did you like did you try to like
36:34

36:36
Speaker 6: crazy just to you know, taste their tears as well?
36:40
Speaker 2: What did you do?
36:42
Speaker 13: What I did was the silent like arms uff in
36:46
Speaker 13: the air, like you know what I mean. Like it
36:48
Speaker 13: wasn't like loudly, but it was just like touch down
36:54
Speaker 13: and like like.
36:55
Speaker 7: Turning around to the bar and stuff.
36:56
Speaker 11: Yeah, it was great.
36:58
Speaker 6: All right, Well, congrats man, you survived it. That's a
37:01
Speaker 6: memory you'll have forever. Appreciate you. There is Bertram joining

37:29

37:35

37:39
Speaker 6: to just be humble, to be able to like, man,
37:44
Speaker 6: now that I'm here, now that I have achieved this
37:46
Speaker 6: greatest thing in my entire personal professional personal slash professional life.

38:06
Speaker 2: Wow, that is well done. That is just really well done.
38:10
Speaker 6: And to get in the Sam Darnold critic jibe jab
38:14
Speaker 6: there at the end as well. I said it a
38:18
Speaker 6: couple of weeks ago, and I believe me, I get it.
38:23
Speaker 6: Sean McVay and Kyle Shanahan are phenomenal at what they do.
38:27
Speaker 6: I don't use word great a lot.
38:30
Speaker 2: They're great. They are great head coaches.
38:32
Speaker 6: I would have voted Kyle Shannan for Coach of the Year,
38:34
Speaker 6: and I think Sean McVay is even better than him.
38:36
Speaker 2: I wouldn't trade.
38:37
Speaker 6: Our guy for either of them, No way, wouldn't trade
38:41
Speaker 6: Mike McDonald for either of those two guys.
38:43
Speaker 2: And that's no shot against them. That's just all frickin.
38:47
Speaker 6: Praise for the guy John Schneider got to replace Pete
38:51
Speaker 6: Carroll two years ago.
38:52
Speaker 2: We've got the best in the game right now.
38:55
Speaker 8: Well, I mean, I do really like Mike McDonald. I
38:58
Speaker 8: think that the way in which he coaches, I think
39:00
Speaker 8: there's a firmness and yet still a little bit more understanding.
39:04
Speaker 8: You can't go full dictator coach anymore. The athletes are
39:07
Speaker 8: just not going to respond to it. But you have
39:10
Speaker 8: to be a little bit like, don't We're a team first,
39:14
Speaker 8: So don't put yourself riguollen, don't put yourself in front
39:17
Speaker 8: of the group, don't don't do things that are bad
39:20
Speaker 8: for everybody. And you can feel it with the team.
39:22
Speaker 8: I mean, you got veterans that just got here that
39:24
Speaker 8: are saying I've never experienced anything like this.
39:27
Speaker 2: That's a coach that's.
39:28
Speaker 8: The culture that the coach brings that all of a sudden,
39:30
Speaker 8: everybody's like looking around, like what, yeah, let's go band together,
39:35
Speaker 8: let's go do this thing. You have to get the
39:37
Speaker 8: trust from your players and then they believe in something.
39:40
Speaker 8: He most certainly, he most certainly has now to me
39:43
Speaker 8: before I would be able to go all the way
39:46
Speaker 8: to he's the best. I'm not saying I would trade
39:48
Speaker 8: him for anybody McVeigh or Ambia. I wouldn't trade him
39:50
Speaker 8: for anybody because I like where his trajectory's at, where
39:53
Speaker 8: he's what he looks like he's doing. But you got
39:55
Speaker 8: to do it and then keep doing it, and I
39:58
Speaker 8: don't have much doubt that he's going to well.
40:00
Speaker 2: I did say it was the best. I just said
40:01
Speaker 2: I wouldn't trade them. Yeah, I wouldn't either. I wouldn't
40:03
Speaker 2: either right now.
40:04
Speaker 6: And I'll tell you another thing.
40:05
Speaker 2: The difference between him and Pete.
40:06
Speaker 6: Carroll is that, I mean, Pete Carroll was great legion
40:11
Speaker 6: of boom days, phenomenal, should have been a dynasty, wasn't
40:14
Speaker 6: a dynasty?
40:15
Speaker 2: And what had what unraveled the dynasty? Things? Players going
40:20
Speaker 2: where's mine?
40:21
Speaker 7: Yep?
40:22
Speaker 2: Where's I want a.
40:23
Speaker 6: Bigger piece of the pie. He's getting too much credit.
40:25
Speaker 6: I'm not getting enough credit. We're not getting enough credit.
40:27
Speaker 6: He's gotten too much credit.
40:28
Speaker 2: Why are you treating him that way?
40:29
Speaker 7: Way?
40:29
Speaker 2: Do you treat me this way?
40:32
Speaker 6: I mean, how many times in professional fricking sports in
40:35

40:39
Speaker 6: team come out middle of the year and thank the
40:41

Speaker 6: But we'll take it one day.
41:19
Speaker 7: At a time, Yes, one day at a time.
