Speaker 1: You're listening to Hawk Talk with former Seahawks wide receiver
0:05
Speaker 1: Michael Bumpus at the ten yard lives second to day
0:08
Speaker 1: free wide receivers now in motion has Buppas left to right,
0:11
Speaker 1: Julius Jones, a single setback Matt Pumpfecks looking at the
0:14
Speaker 1: goal line. He throws it into the end zone. Touchdown,
0:17
Speaker 1: Saint Hawks. It's Michael Bumpus with a diving catching the
0:21
Speaker 1: end zone. Our ten yard touchdown reception for Bumpus and
0:25
Speaker 1: the kid out of Washington State has found himself a
0:29
Speaker 1: place on this team. Powered by Seahawks dot Com blog.
0:33
Speaker 1: When a Hawk Talk recap edition, the Seahawks are unable
0:36
Speaker 1: to get it done on Monday Nights football against the
0:39
Speaker 1: Washington football team. They fall seventeen to fifteen, but had
0:42
Speaker 1: a chance to win this ball game. Let's bring it
0:45
Speaker 1: Nasa Choby and figure out what happened. See what happened
0:48
Speaker 1: at first word what had happened was Unhawk Talk Michael Bumpus.
0:56
Speaker 1: This is uncharted territory for the Seattle Seahawks. It has
0:59
Speaker 1: been a long season so far. The Seahawks fall to
1:02
Speaker 1: three and eight on the season, have lost the most
1:05
Speaker 1: games since twenty eleven and have lost six of their
1:08
Speaker 1: last seven. Tough game. Last night heartbreaking fashion, losing the
1:12
Speaker 1: Washing football team seventeen to fifteen. And the thing that
1:15
Speaker 1: jumps out about this year bump. You know, lots of
1:17
Speaker 1: bounces have not gone the Seahawks way. But despite that
1:21
Speaker 1: three and eight record, the Seahawks have been within a
1:23
Speaker 1: touchdown in the fourth quarter of all eight games this season,
1:27
Speaker 1: which is wild to me. You know, you look at
1:29
Speaker 1: a lot of the box scores and how it feels
1:31
Speaker 1: like three and eight obviously feels bad, but the Seahawks
1:33
Speaker 1: have been in every single game, and it's it's tough,
1:37
Speaker 1: and I know it's tough for everyone in that locker
1:38
Speaker 1: room and coaching staff. And a familiar trend started and
1:41
Speaker 1: continued on Monday night. Excuse me. The Seahawks struggled mightily
1:45
Speaker 1: to sustain drives and stay on the field offensively. Time
1:48
Speaker 1: of possession just jumps MAXI in the face. Washington Football
1:51
Speaker 1: team forty one minutes, forty seconds, the Seattle Seahawks eighteen
1:55
Speaker 1: minutes in twenty seconds. The Seahawks scored on two of
1:59
Speaker 1: their eleven drives, had just ten first downs all night.
2:03
Speaker 1: The Washington Football team had twenty eight. The Hawks continue
2:06
Speaker 1: to have issues on third down, going four of thirteen.
2:09
Speaker 1: Washington football team ran seventy nine plays. Seahawks ran just
2:13
Speaker 1: forty nine, and ten of those came on the final drive.
2:16
Speaker 1: Rushing yards were not great. Seahawks ran for thirty four.
2:19
Speaker 1: Washington football team ran for one hundred and fifty two
2:21
Speaker 1: and only two of the Seahawks drives bump were more
2:24
Speaker 1: than six plays. It's really hard to win football games
2:27
Speaker 1: that way, and it's crazy to think that they were
2:29
Speaker 1: still an amazing opportunity, a chance to win this game.
2:32
Speaker 1: But when time investon continues to be this lopsided, it's
2:35
Speaker 1: gonna be really hard for any offense six score points,
2:38
Speaker 1: say on the field, or really be competitive and try
2:40
Speaker 1: to win these ball games. Yeah, it's tough. That means
2:42
Speaker 1: you're not moving the football. That means you're not making
2:44
Speaker 1: explosive plays, and we're not seeing that. They have three
2:47
Speaker 1: six three and ouns and five consecutive three owns in
2:50
Speaker 1: these second half. Here's the drive chart, punt, touchdown, punt, fumble,
2:54
Speaker 1: about five or six seven punts in a row, and
2:57
Speaker 1: then at the end of the game, the defense holds
3:00
Speaker 1: on the goal line and keeps so many game and
3:01
Speaker 1: they go down to score touchdown. On defense, the Seahawks
3:04
Speaker 1: put up another solid performance. The Washington football team ended
3:07
Speaker 1: up with three hundred and seventy one yards and told
3:08
Speaker 1: the offense, but the defense is what kept the Seahawks
3:11
Speaker 1: in the game. The thing that Hurst's defense allowing long drives.
3:16
Speaker 1: Fifteen plays sext eight yards, phil goal, ten plays forty
3:19
Speaker 1: five yards interception Jamal Adams big ups, eleven plays seventy
3:23
Speaker 1: three yards for a touchdown, then sixteen plays eighty nine yards.
3:26
Speaker 1: Then you're out on downs. This defense is working hard.
3:30
Speaker 1: They're out there for a long time. There are some
3:31
Speaker 1: things that they can do better. They can get off
3:33
Speaker 1: the field on third down. They can not allow these
3:37
Speaker 1: teams to have these super long drives. But the end
3:39
Speaker 1: of the day, they gave these guys a chance. They
3:40
Speaker 1: gave Russell Wilson and football with some time in the
3:43
Speaker 1: clock to win a game. Absolutely, you look at what
3:45
Speaker 1: the defense has done. Yes, they've given up some yards
3:47
Speaker 1: in some of these games, but you look at what
3:48
Speaker 1: they've done defensively, it's been remarkable. The season started poorly,
3:53
Speaker 1: just like twenty twenty did, but if you look since
3:56
Speaker 1: the Seahawks loss to the Rams back on Thursday Football
3:59
Speaker 1: in October. They've given twenty three points to Steelers, thirteen
4:02
Speaker 1: points to the Saints, seven points to the Jaguars, seventeen
4:05
Speaker 1: points to the Packers, twenty three points to the Cardinals,
4:08
Speaker 1: in seventeen points to the Washington football team. So they're
4:10
Speaker 1: doing enough. Yes, they're bending, they're not breaking. They're keeping
4:13
Speaker 1: the Seahawks in these games. The one thing, if you're
4:16
Speaker 1: gonna knock them was tough, is they've started games off
4:19
Speaker 1: with long drives and started second halfs off with long drives.
4:22
Speaker 1: Those are the two times where they shouldn't, you know,
4:26
Speaker 1: hypothetically be fresh to start a game. You want to
4:28
Speaker 1: get off the field early, and then in the second
4:31
Speaker 1: half you get killed with another really long drive. So
4:34
Speaker 1: the Seahawks, you know, it's promising to me how hard
4:38
Speaker 1: these guys play. That's the one thing the big takeaway
4:41
Speaker 1: from me defensively, as you can say what you want
4:43
Speaker 1: about their record, but these guys never quit. For them
4:45
Speaker 1: to have the resolve in the wherewithal to be in
4:48
Speaker 1: that game, still competing to make a stop at the
4:50
Speaker 1: end of the game. Offense getting the ball and going
4:53
Speaker 1: it's it's really good to see in in As you mentioned,
4:56
Speaker 1: the defenseman made enough place to win this game. The
4:58
Speaker 1: biggest point of the game, bump was in that second half.
5:01
Speaker 1: The Seahawks were putting the ball driver to drive to drive,
5:04
Speaker 1: but the Seahawks defense stepped up big and forced three
5:06
Speaker 1: consecutive three an ounce for Washington. And despite all of that,
5:11
Speaker 1: the Seahawks still had a chance to win the fourth quarter.
5:13
Speaker 1: Win the game in the fourth quarter, which is truly remarkable.
5:16
Speaker 1: Russell gets the football, so the defense stands tall on
5:19
Speaker 1: the goal line on our own three yard line fourth down,
5:22
Speaker 1: watching the football team lost their kicker earlier in the game,
5:24
Speaker 1: or else they would just put that ball on the foot.
5:26
Speaker 1: Then they go up. The games probably out of reach
5:28
Speaker 1: because they don't have their kicker. They have to go
5:30
Speaker 1: forward on fourth down, and the defense stands tall. Jabal
5:33
Speaker 1: makes a play on the goal line. For the second
5:34
Speaker 1: week in a row, he's been on that goal line
5:36
Speaker 1: trying to make plays. Damn. It was initially called a touchdown,
5:40
Speaker 1: but the referees actually got it right. They went back
5:42
Speaker 1: and looked at the film. The ball was moving. You
5:45
Speaker 1: were convincing me. I'm like I don't know, Nass, I
5:47
Speaker 1: don't know, but we saw an angle that made sense
5:50
Speaker 1: and the revs got it right. Kudos to the referees.
5:53
Speaker 1: So what happens. Russell Wilson gets the ball. Then we're exciting,
5:55
Speaker 1: a little over two minutes left in the game, and
5:57
Speaker 1: what does he do? Connects with DJ Dallas. D K
6:00
Speaker 1: finally gets involved. Then there's a passive affairence on Tyler
6:03
Speaker 1: Lockett before he finally connects with Freddie Swain for thirty
6:06
Speaker 1: two yard touchdown with fifteen seconds remaining. That made the
6:09
Speaker 1: score seventeen to fifteen. Now they got a line up
6:12
Speaker 1: for a two point conversion, and you can tell a
6:14
Speaker 1: lot about a team and offensive coordinator just on their
6:17
Speaker 1: two point conversion calls, like this is what they hang
6:19
Speaker 1: there had them, this is what they believe what's gonna happen.
6:22
Speaker 1: And I agreed with the play calls. I wasn't mad
6:23
Speaker 1: with the play call. There's a lot of crossing roles.
6:25
Speaker 1: You're trying to get this defense to communicate with each other.
6:28
Speaker 1: Russell throws the ball to Freddie Swain, probably a bit
6:30
Speaker 1: late in the middle, but Freddie still got his hands
6:32
Speaker 1: on him. Watching football team just made a great play
6:34
Speaker 1: could have went to the DK in the corner. But
6:36
Speaker 1: end of the day, they had a chance to win
6:38
Speaker 1: this game and they didn't convert. But then as they
6:41
Speaker 1: still had another chance to win this ball game. Oh yeah,
6:44
Speaker 1: I mean we were going nuts in the studio when
6:46
Speaker 1: he found Freddie swaying for that touchdown. Line up for
6:49
Speaker 1: the two point conversion, like you mentioned, might have been
6:52
Speaker 1: a little late to Freddy Swain who was initially open. Okay,
6:54
Speaker 1: the play doesn't work. Now you're everyone's taking the games over.
6:57
Speaker 1: It has been this roller coast of emotion, and say
7:00
Speaker 1: have then the Seahawks line up for the onside kick,
7:03
Speaker 1: which you know you don't see go the offensive way
7:06
Speaker 1: a ton in the NFL, that's more high school. In
7:08
Speaker 1: college hand seams, guys are coached well on the hand
7:11
Speaker 1: seeming things like that. But guess what, Boom the ball
7:14
Speaker 1: A perfect kick by Jason Myers gets this weird in
7:17
Speaker 1: between hop the guy from the Washington football team on
7:19
Speaker 1: hand seem gets as weird like a short stop, and
7:21
Speaker 1: the ball hits the lip of the grass, ball goes
7:23
Speaker 1: behind him. Gavin Heslop, who was elevated that day, gets
7:27
Speaker 1: the huge recovery the Seahawks sideline is going crazy. Now
7:30
Speaker 1: we're thinking, my mindset switches over. Okay, the fifteen seconds slept.
7:34
Speaker 1: How long can Jason Myers kick this field goal? Because
7:36
Speaker 1: the Seahawks were down two points, that field goal is
7:38
Speaker 1: gonna win the game. Maybe they get one play, you know,
7:40
Speaker 1: throw a five year out or something. Who knows. But
7:43
Speaker 1: then we see the flag again. We see that yellow
7:46
Speaker 1: laundry and we're wondering, No, they weren't. They weren't off sides.
7:50
Speaker 1: We're looking through it. They're blah blah blah. Nope, it's
7:53
Speaker 1: an illegal formation. Unfortunately, the way the Seahawks wire lined up,
7:57
Speaker 1: you can't have anyone inside the hash with the kicker there.
8:00
Speaker 1: The rules changed a couple of years ago to really
8:03
Speaker 1: change the big collissions on kickoff as well as on
8:05
Speaker 1: on site kicks, and it's really frustrating and it's really disappointing. Obviously,
8:09
Speaker 1: the Seahawks didn't lose the game because of that. It's
8:12
Speaker 1: just it's it sucks because the penalty was on Nick
8:16
Speaker 1: Bollore and he is your special team's captain. He's able,
8:20
Speaker 1: he is the jack of all trades. Fullback, linebacker, funny dude,
8:25
Speaker 1: one of the glue guys in the locker room. So
8:27
Speaker 1: I felt horrible for him. I know they probably lined
8:30
Speaker 1: up a million times. It just it just sucks that
8:32
Speaker 1: it came down to that. But it's been I mean,
8:36
Speaker 1: if we're real, it's been a microcosm of this season.
8:38
Speaker 1: The Seahawks have been so close on so mammy occasions,
8:41
Speaker 1: but one thing doesn't bounce their way. I mean, we
8:43
Speaker 1: were talking about this last night. Alton Robinson makes a
8:45
Speaker 1: great rush off the edge. Your thing, it's gonna be
8:48
Speaker 1: a sack fumble, maybe a scoop and score. Alton Robinson
8:51
Speaker 1: gets his hand on Heineke so gets his hand on
8:53
Speaker 1: the football. Somehow, the football comes out going sideways and
8:57
Speaker 1: it's still a completion. They muff a punt off the
9:01
Speaker 1: dude's shoulder pads a lot of times. The ball bounces crazy,
9:04
Speaker 1: bounces off another dude. Nope, it falls right in front
9:06
Speaker 1: of him and he falls on it and plays like
9:08
Speaker 1: that over and over again. It's just it's it's brutal because,
9:13
Speaker 1: like I said earlier, these two guys fight incredibly hard,
9:16
Speaker 1: never any quit in them. It's just it's just a man,
9:19
Speaker 1: it's just hard to watch to be in this situation
9:21
Speaker 1: Seahawks losing six or seven. It's something after the Colts
9:25
Speaker 1: game and halfway through the Titans game, even after the
9:27
Speaker 1: forty nine Ers game. Room this season this is a
9:29
Speaker 1: place that we never ever imagine this season could be
9:32
Speaker 1: but bump. At the end of the day, it is
9:34
Speaker 1: what it is. The Seahawks are three and eight, and
9:35
Speaker 1: that's what they are. You're gonna need some of those
9:38
Speaker 1: players to bounce your William to sneak out a couple
9:40
Speaker 1: of games, even some games you're not supposed to win. Honestly,
9:43
Speaker 1: they probably were not supposed to win that Watchington football
9:45
Speaker 1: game last night, a Monday night football. But you have
9:48
Speaker 1: the football to tie the ball game up with two
9:50
Speaker 1: minutes left. You think you're recovered on sidekick. You mentioned
9:53
Speaker 1: on Robinson getting his hands on the football a muff punt.
9:56
Speaker 1: I mean, one or two of those things have to
9:58
Speaker 1: go you away for them to win him. It just
10:00
Speaker 1: didn't go away. With all that being instead, there were
10:02
Speaker 1: still some playmakers out there. Playmakers Russell Wilson making his
10:16
Speaker 1: appearance and playmakers again a spot where he rightfully belongs
10:20
Speaker 1: and usually is every single game this year. Russell Wilson,
10:23
Speaker 1: when you look at the game bump. It wasn't the
10:25
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson game we've become accustomed to, where he's lighting
10:29
Speaker 1: it up up and down the field with his legs,
10:31
Speaker 1: with his arms coming back in the fourth quarter. But
10:33
Speaker 1: when you look at the numbers, he's still he had
10:35
Speaker 1: a pretty solid game. Numbers wise, He's twenty to thirty one,
10:38
Speaker 1: two hundred and forty seven yards, two touchdowns, no interceptions,
10:41
Speaker 1: and as we mentioned in the last segment, love the
10:43
Speaker 1: Sehawks on ten play ninety six yard drive late in
10:46
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter to give the Seahawks a chance in
10:48
Speaker 1: the game late, and there's something about Russell, you know.
10:51
Speaker 1: Obviously the Sehawks have not been playing well the last
10:53
Speaker 1: couple of weeks offensively, but there was still a glimmer
10:56
Speaker 1: of hope. Anytime three has the ball, there's still that
10:59
Speaker 1: glimmer of magic. And even though he took a sack
11:01
Speaker 1: on the last drive, he still figured it out, still
11:03
Speaker 1: made plays. In my head, I'm thinking, I think it
11:07
Speaker 1: was after the DK completion, or it was one after that.
11:09
Speaker 1: I'm thinking, clocked the ball, clock the ball, clock the ball.
11:12
Speaker 1: What are they doing? Times running out, times running up?
11:14
Speaker 1: What happens? Russell steps up Buying Ready, Swaying bam So,
11:16
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson. He's still not quite back to what we've
11:19
Speaker 1: seen early in the season and what he's been for
11:21
Speaker 1: his entire Hall of Fame career. I think it was
11:24
Speaker 1: promising that we've We've seen glimpses like the throw he
11:27
Speaker 1: had to Gerald. Ever the first touchdown that was a dime.
11:30
Speaker 1: He put it in the only place possible that that
11:33
Speaker 1: could have been a touchdown, threaded the needle perfectly. So yes,
11:37
Speaker 1: he's missing some throws here and there, but we've seen it.
11:39
Speaker 1: The pieces are there. He just seems to put it
11:41
Speaker 1: all together. Might be slowly easing his way back to
11:46
Speaker 1: what we used to see, but in this league, you
11:48
Speaker 1: know you have to be consistent on every single down.
11:51
Speaker 1: But every week he's gotten better since the injury, So
11:53
Speaker 1: let's see what happens there. Another play maker, Tyler Lockett,
11:56
Speaker 1: three receptions for ninety six yards, had a fifty five
11:59
Speaker 1: yard reception. That's that up the Seahawks first touchdown. All
12:02
Speaker 1: he does is catch deep crosses. I mean, I don't
12:04
Speaker 1: know how he gets open. I don't know how he
12:08
Speaker 1: catches the ball with the contact that he has. He's
12:11
Speaker 1: a smaller dude. But Tyler Lockett, it's just steady. He's
12:15
Speaker 1: quiet about what he does. He shows up to work
12:17
Speaker 1: and you can count on him making one or two
12:19
Speaker 1: plays a game Tyler Locket made Without him in this game,
12:22
Speaker 1: these guys aren't in it. Yeah, things haven't been great
12:25
Speaker 1: offensively without Tyler Lockett. I have no idea where this
12:28
Speaker 1: team is. Tyler Lockett is one of those glue guys.
12:30
Speaker 1: Like you said, it almost doesn't make sense because defense
12:33
Speaker 1: is no that's what he's gonna run. Everybody in the
12:36
Speaker 1: in the building notes here, but he still finds a
12:37
Speaker 1: way to get it. Opens up, Love you sixteen, keep
12:39
Speaker 1: making plays. Another playmaker, Gerald Everett five receptions, thirty seven yards,
12:44
Speaker 1: one touchdown and bump. I've seen enough the last three weeks.
12:48
Speaker 1: Get this man the football. Gerald Everett is dynamic, he's
12:51
Speaker 1: a playmaker. The first guy never tackles him, almost never.
12:55
Speaker 1: And Gerald Everett when he gets some football in his hands,
12:57
Speaker 1: he's a running back. He runs hard and I just
13:00
Speaker 1: love to see it. And that's that's kind of what
13:01
Speaker 1: we thought we'd see from Gerald coming from the Rams office.
13:03
Speaker 1: And there Sean McVeagh as well as Shane waldron over
13:06
Speaker 1: in La so love to see from Gerald Leverett. We
13:08
Speaker 1: just need to keep getting that man in the football
13:10
Speaker 1: because he's making plays. You've got some stickies, man, He's
13:13
Speaker 1: makes some tough catches. That touchdown was on point. Like
13:16
Speaker 1: you mentioned, Russ thread the needle and he still has
13:19
Speaker 1: to make that play. Big up Jerold. Another playmaker, Bobby
13:22
Speaker 1: Wagon of fourteen tackles, one pass defended. There was this
13:25
Speaker 1: play he made. He's on the line to game. Running
13:29
Speaker 1: back is running at him, He slips, falls, gets back up,
13:32
Speaker 1: squares his duds up, drives him to the to the ground.
13:35
Speaker 1: Just a signature Bobby Wagner played. This guy has played
13:39
Speaker 1: every single snap on defense this year, every single snap.
13:42
Speaker 1: It's not like he's a young pup, year ten for
13:44
Speaker 1: this guy, and he's still out there. Man. Without Bobby,
13:47
Speaker 1: I mean, this team probably isn't even close late in
13:49
Speaker 1: the game. You need your general out there on defense,
13:52
Speaker 1: and that's what fifty four does for this team every week. Yeah,
13:54
Speaker 1: that play was a big hit on Gibson and that's
13:56
Speaker 1: a form tackle. That's how you draw it up even
13:58
Speaker 1: in this today's NFL. That's a clean hit, physical shoulder
14:02
Speaker 1: him up, drove him to the ground. And a guy
14:04
Speaker 1: that's he's uh, you know, providing tons of leadership too,
14:07
Speaker 1: is Jordan Brooks. Jordan Brooks again is all over the
14:10
Speaker 1: stat sheet, fourteen tackles in same with him. He was
14:12
Speaker 1: just physical. There was something different that I like seeing
14:15
Speaker 1: a little bit from the Seahawks defense. It felt like
14:17
Speaker 1: guys were hitting, you know, it felt like it was
14:19
Speaker 1: a bigger game down the sideline. But Jordan Brooks puts
14:22
Speaker 1: his shoulder pad in somebody. Boom. When Brooks decides to
14:24
Speaker 1: put his shoulder pads into you, you go down. As
14:27
Speaker 1: Dave Wyman always says, when he hits you, you stay hit.
14:30
Speaker 1: So love to see Jordan Brooks balling out there. And
14:34
Speaker 1: I think, you know, at the end of the day,
14:36
Speaker 1: we knew Bobby Wagner can't play forever, right, Jordan Brooks
14:39
Speaker 1: has shown us that when Bobby when it's when Bobby
14:42
Speaker 1: eventually hangs it up, that could be four years from now,
14:44
Speaker 1: it could be who knows. Because Bobby's an amazing shape,
14:46
Speaker 1: he's an amazing leader. The Seahawks really need him right now.
14:49
Speaker 1: But Jordan Brooks has shown that he's going to be
14:51
Speaker 1: a playmaker for years to come, and that when that
14:53
Speaker 1: time comes, he'll be ready to take that torch. I
14:57
Speaker 1: think we can officially say the Hawks hit on an
14:59
Speaker 1: early draft pick with drum Brooks. That's kind of been
15:01
Speaker 1: the knock with these guys. They don't draft well, not
15:04
Speaker 1: to the untrained eye, but you look at Jordan Brooks.
15:07
Speaker 1: That's a hit, big of Jordan Brooks. Jamal Adams nine tackles,
15:10
Speaker 1: one interception, two passes defended. We're not talking about sacks.
15:14
Speaker 1: We're talking about tackles, interceptions and passes defended. With Jamal Adams,
15:18
Speaker 1: that is great to see. He's just been around the football.
15:21
Speaker 1: The footballs in the area. Was tipped up by Bobby
15:23
Speaker 1: Wagner and Diggs at the same time they collide on
15:26
Speaker 1: him on the player poss up in the air. He's
15:28
Speaker 1: just where he needs to be. And I think that
15:31
Speaker 1: as a safety as anyone in pass Kevige. If you're
15:33
Speaker 1: just where you're supposed to be, footballs are gonna go
15:35
Speaker 1: your way. You're gonna be able to make plays. Two
15:37
Speaker 1: interceptions this year. Happy for Jamal absolutely two interceptions in
15:41
Speaker 1: three games. People can put away those stupid memes comparing
15:44
Speaker 1: him to Vince will Park about career interception. Okay, that's done.
15:47
Speaker 1: Retire at Jamal Adams keep balling out. Love to see it,
15:50
Speaker 1: Love the energy he plays with. Love how he steps
15:52
Speaker 1: up to the podium after every single loss and just
15:54
Speaker 1: owns it and where's it. He's a true professional, great
15:57
Speaker 1: ball player. Love Jamal Adams. Another playmaker, Rashime Green. Rashim
16:02
Speaker 1: two tackles, blocked pat scooped that thing, ran it back
16:06
Speaker 1: like eighty some yards. He was active, pressuring in the
16:09
Speaker 1: quarterback and just in the game plan. So love to
16:12
Speaker 1: see from Rachim. And that's just lets y'all know that
16:15
Speaker 1: was some athleticism, bro. He not only blocks the Pats,
16:18
Speaker 1: he's a great rush inside rush boom, gets skinny, going
16:21
Speaker 1: through the shoulders, gets folks, tension, blocks, blocks, the ball
16:25
Speaker 1: bounces back to him and then he shows you the
16:27
Speaker 1: Jets man he was. He got up to I think
16:29
Speaker 1: nx NFL next Gen stats said he got up to
16:32
Speaker 1: eighteen point five miles an hour, rumbling, bumbling, stumbling. Love
16:35
Speaker 1: to see a Rashim. It ain't slow now and that's
16:39
Speaker 1: a that's a big man movement. Man. I love seeing
16:42
Speaker 1: Rachine and Green make plays. One of my favorite dudes
16:44
Speaker 1: on the team. Honestly, all right, let's get into this
16:47
Speaker 1: wide receiver. Round up a lot of pass catchers last night.
16:50
Speaker 1: Tyler Lockett at three for ninety six, Jerod Ever had
16:53
Speaker 1: five for thirty seven and a touchdown. Freddy Swain had
16:56
Speaker 1: one big catch for thirty two yards in a touchdown.
16:59
Speaker 1: DJ five for twenty seven. Like seeing him get involved,
17:02
Speaker 1: Uncle will disk he had two for nineteen, Alex Collins
17:05
Speaker 1: one for thirteen, DK one for thirteen. I think we
17:07
Speaker 1: need to see a little bit more number fourteen get involved.
17:10
Speaker 1: And then we saw d Escars get two for ten.
17:14
Speaker 1: Those are the wide receivers get to the coach's corner. Yeah, bump.
17:18
Speaker 1: We've been talking about it all day, all day throughout
17:21
Speaker 1: this podcast. Russell Wilson connecting with Freddie Swain for thirty
17:24
Speaker 1: two yard touchdown with fifteen seconds remaining in the fourth
17:28
Speaker 1: quarter to bring the Seahawks within two. Three receivers right
17:31
Speaker 1: side twenty two. Russ looks pump faith now he's gonna
17:36
Speaker 1: let it fly. He's got a bad toutsdown Seahawks right
17:42
Speaker 1: down the middle of the field, and you can hear
17:45
Speaker 1: the Seahawks fans in the stands. Russell Wilson throws a
17:49
Speaker 1: dark Swain right down the middle. What a thirty third
17:53
Speaker 1: birthday for Russell Wilson. A thirty two yard touchdown strike
17:57
Speaker 1: and now the Seahawks have to come vert two to
18:01
Speaker 1: tie it up. Nothing, nothing is out of reach for
18:05
Speaker 1: number three. Now this is when we were all yelling
18:10
Speaker 1: clock clock, clock stopped the clock. So Shane, Walton and
18:13
Speaker 1: Russell saw something that we didn't see. They saw a
18:16
Speaker 1: two high defense and all they did was run straight verts.
18:18
Speaker 1: You got four receivers running verse. DK's isolated to the
18:21
Speaker 1: left side and you got Freddie work in the middle
18:24
Speaker 1: of the field. If you are going to hit a
18:26
Speaker 1: two high defense, it's right in the middle of the field.
18:28
Speaker 1: They did a great job holding the safeties with verts
18:31
Speaker 1: on the outside by I believe that's Tyler Lockett and
18:34
Speaker 1: Gerald Evert. Rush steps up in the pocket, keeps his
18:37
Speaker 1: eyes down the field and makes probably the biggest throw
18:40
Speaker 1: of the season for him, and with Freddie swimming, all
18:43
Speaker 1: I think it is, please catch it, Please catch it.
18:46
Speaker 1: I mean you're by yourself, you know, you got a
18:48
Speaker 1: whole bunch of space. We heard Freddie talk about it
18:50
Speaker 1: after the game and he described it perfectly. It was look, man,
18:53
Speaker 1: I saw the two high defense. I knew if I
18:54
Speaker 1: just split the safeties, I'd be good. Russell would find me.
18:57
Speaker 1: That's exactly what happened. Yeah, I love the execution out it.
19:00
Speaker 1: And like you said, they're in a two high looks,
19:01
Speaker 1: so you've got gk Metcalf on the bottom of your screen.
19:04
Speaker 1: And of course, if I'm the free safety on that
19:06
Speaker 1: side of the field, yeah, he's gonna have my intention
19:08
Speaker 1: if he's streaking down the field. Then on the flip side,
19:10
Speaker 1: you have Tyler Lockett, who's the outside receiver on the
19:13
Speaker 1: other side, same thing, and they put the other safety
19:16
Speaker 1: in a big bind. Obviously you're in cover two and
19:18
Speaker 1: they're running four verts, but you got three receivers to
19:21
Speaker 1: your side, so you're you're you're trying to vertical Vier
19:24
Speaker 1: three and number two and that safety is depending on them.
19:29
Speaker 1: Whoever's playing mic or who's playing inside covered to carry
19:31
Speaker 1: number three in a covered two, whether it's like the
19:35
Speaker 1: old Tampa two, the linebacker, whoever you have in there,
19:38
Speaker 1: you have to cover. You have to carry number three
19:40
Speaker 1: if he goes vert because the safety has too much
19:42
Speaker 1: on his plate. There's no way you can cover that
19:44
Speaker 1: kind of ground. Russell makes a great play stepping up
19:46
Speaker 1: and it's a great pitching catching and you love to
19:49
Speaker 1: see it. I loved. I want to see more beaters, bump.
19:52
Speaker 1: You're an offensive coordinator. I want to see more concepts,
19:55
Speaker 1: whether it's when teams a side to play covered too,
19:57
Speaker 1: what are we gonna do? You know, if we're gonna
19:59
Speaker 1: hit that nice in between zone between the corner and
20:02
Speaker 1: the free safety, we're gonna hit the middle of the field,
20:04
Speaker 1: if they're in quarters, if they're in thirds. I just
20:07
Speaker 1: want to see more beaters, and I want to see,
20:08
Speaker 1: you know, just rush Will getting up to the line
20:10
Speaker 1: and just that continuity between everybody in the wide receiver
20:13
Speaker 1: saying like, hey, this is what they're in we know
20:15
Speaker 1: we're gonna do and then go out next que. I
20:18
Speaker 1: think the more reps they get together and the more
20:21
Speaker 1: they understand what they're looking at, you gotta have all
20:23
Speaker 1: those guys on the same page, including Shane Walging offensive coordinator.
20:27
Speaker 1: It comes with time and plays like this give you hope.
20:31
Speaker 1: But we're not talking about a when Nats. We're talking
20:34
Speaker 1: about an l the clock ran out on us, anee
20:40
Speaker 1: taking fire Huntley. They're just gonna let the clock wind down. Preach,
20:43
Speaker 1: not even gonna bother taking that last time out, getting
20:48
Speaker 1: about sick of this segment bump. We've been in a
20:51
Speaker 1: little bit too much time this year, about double we
20:53
Speaker 1: were last year. But you know, it is what it is.
20:55
Speaker 1: For the six times and seven weeks, the Seahawks come
20:57
Speaker 1: up short, falling in three and eight on the season,
21:00
Speaker 1: and this came down to the seahawks inability to stay
21:02
Speaker 1: on the field. Time possession is what really did the Seahawks.
21:04
Speaker 1: In Washington Football team forty one minutes forty seconds Seahawks
21:08
Speaker 1: eighteen minutes and twenty seconds. Washington Football team ran seventy
21:11
Speaker 1: nine plays and the Seahawks ran just forty nine and
21:13
Speaker 1: ten coming on the final drive. And it's hard to
21:16
Speaker 1: win that way. When you can't stay in the field,
21:17
Speaker 1: it's hard to score points lobsided man Also, third downs
21:20
Speaker 1: were once again to issue, the Seahawks win four for
21:22
Speaker 1: twelve on third downs. The Seahawks played well overall on defense,
21:26
Speaker 1: but their inability to get off the field on several
21:29
Speaker 1: long drives were just too much to overcome. But like
21:31
Speaker 1: the Seahawks do, they battled to the very end and
21:34
Speaker 1: had a chance to win the game with fifteen seconds
21:36
Speaker 1: remaining always in it, man, always in it. You never
21:39
Speaker 1: there's never any quit in this team. So people can
21:42
Speaker 1: say whatever they want they can. Of course, people are
21:44
Speaker 1: gonna talk it's not a great season, so everyone's gonna
21:46
Speaker 1: question the scheme or this and that whatever. What I
21:50
Speaker 1: do know is Pete Carroll is a tremendous leader among men,
21:53
Speaker 1: and every single person who put on the Seahawks uniform
21:55
Speaker 1: was fighting till the very end. And you can see
21:57
Speaker 1: it with how hard this defense was playing, how locked
21:59
Speaker 1: in the offense was playing. To be in that situation
22:02
Speaker 1: after doing nothing on six straight drives, to be in
22:04
Speaker 1: a situation knowing you gotta go ninety seven yards and
22:06
Speaker 1: to then come up and do that, I love to see.
22:08
Speaker 1: It's a big opposite how this team fights and bump.
22:13
Speaker 1: They return home this Sunday for another tough divisional matchup
22:16
Speaker 1: against the forty nine Ers, who are in a three
22:18
Speaker 1: game win streak. So it's not gonna get any easier
22:20
Speaker 1: for the Seahawks. Not gonna get easier, but they beat
22:24
Speaker 1: these dudes already, so they got some kind of mental
22:26
Speaker 1: edge on them. All right, guys, all about going I
22:28
Speaker 1: want to know that was hog talk. Recap aetition. The
22:31
Speaker 1: Seahawks fall to the Washington football team seventeen to fifteen.
22:35
Speaker 1: Still fighting, still looking to bounce back. I'm Michael Bumpings.
22:39
Speaker 1: He's NASA Choby. Thanks for hanging out with us.
