Speaker 2: snow back to the right side the snap. Lamore rolling
0:08
Speaker 2: out to his right, throws talk back of the end zone. Touchdown,

1:04
Speaker 3: Capable of being in the lead and being behind. What
1:14
Speaker 3: his press conference was something they're kind of all like that. No,
1:19
Speaker 3: I don't know I don't know if he's doing it
1:21
Speaker 3: intentionally he's a genius and he just throws people off,
1:24
Speaker 3: or if he really is just that loss I am
1:25
Speaker 3: thrown off the Yeah, I don't know if he's just
1:28
Speaker 3: thrown off, doesn't know what to say, and so it
1:31
Speaker 3: just comes out as gobbledegook every single press conference that
1:35
Speaker 3: he has, especially those after losses. And it was a
1:38
Speaker 3: loss last night for the Miami Dolphins twenty eight to
1:41
Speaker 3: six to the Baltimore Ravens, who look like they're getting
1:43
Speaker 3: right right before our eyes. Not a fun day to
1:46
Speaker 3: have Derrick Henry and fantasy football, I'll tell you that.
1:49
Speaker 3: Just get it inside the twenty and then Lamar just
1:51
Speaker 3: throws touchdown pass four touchdown passes for Lamar Jackson and
1:55
Speaker 3: a twenty eight to six win over the Dolphins on
1:58
Speaker 3: Thursday Night Football. This Sunday, the Kansas City Chiefs will

Speaker 3: be taking on the Buffalo Bills. That's the big game
2:05
Speaker 3: this Sunday. But Sunday Night Seahawks taking on the Washington Commanders.
2:10
Speaker 3: And we'll talk to Greg Bell here in a matter
2:12
Speaker 3: of seconds. First though, let me breeze through these frost
2:14
Speaker 3: brewed course light. Choose chill headlines. It's also week ten
2:18
Speaker 3: of the college football season, my whereas the Time Gone
2:21
Speaker 3: Huskies are on buy this week, but the Koogs in
2:24
Speaker 3: action against conference rival Oregon State kickoff.
2:27
Speaker 1: At four point thirty.
2:29
Speaker 3: There Also, Sounders won't play until Monday, Game two or
2:34
Speaker 3: match two of their three match series with Minnesota United,
2:38
Speaker 3: and Brian Schmitzer in company have to win back to
2:40
Speaker 3: back matches in order to advance in the tournament. College
2:44
Speaker 3: basketball season will start in three days on that Monday
2:47
Speaker 3: as well. Nearly two hundred college basketball games will be
2:51
Speaker 3: played on Monday, believe it or not, and World Series
2:54
Speaker 3: Game number six is tonight. This is the first chance
2:57
Speaker 3: either team has to close out the series become World champs,
3:01
Speaker 3: as the Blue Jays are up three games to two,
3:04
Speaker 3: but they will have to face the hottest pitcher in
3:06
Speaker 3: the entire postseason, as Yamamoto is pitching for the Dodgers tonight.
3:10
Speaker 3: Those are your frost brewed course light Choose chill headlines.
3:15
Speaker 3: Now let's talk to Greg Bell. Good morning, Greg, Good morning.
3:18
Speaker 3: A lot to talk about with this commander's game, but
3:21
Speaker 3: just so we don't risk running out of tom I
3:24
Speaker 3: want to ask you about something that you closed our
3:27
Speaker 3: roundtable discussion with yesterday and we just kind of threw
3:32
Speaker 3: it out there and we didn't have time to discuss
3:33
Speaker 3: it at all. So I want you to elaborate a
3:35
Speaker 3: little bit on this boy A Mafe rumor as we
3:38
Speaker 3: sit here just a few days short of the NFL
3:40
Speaker 3: trade deadline.
3:42
Speaker 5: Well, I mean, I'm guilty of just supposition here, but
3:47
Speaker 5: boy Mafe plays a position of premium value in the
3:50
Speaker 5: NFL edge rusher, and he plays every down, and he
3:54
Speaker 5: hasn't had the production of a guy that you'd want
3:57
Speaker 5: to re sign beyond his rookie contract ending this year.
4:00
Speaker 5: And those are ingredients of potential trade because other teams
4:05
Speaker 5: know the value of his position. He's under a relatively
4:08
Speaker 5: inexpensive rookie deal. It would be something of a rental now,
4:12
Speaker 5: but they could envision if they liked his production for
4:15
Speaker 5: half a season to resign him. But at the very least,
4:19
Speaker 5: you're augmenting a spot that in the NFL is paramount.
4:22
Speaker 5: It's either throw the ball or pressure the guy who
4:25
Speaker 5: throws the ball. That's basically the NFL today. And Mafey
4:30
Speaker 5: has not been what they need him to be. And
4:34
Speaker 5: Derek Hall being out has exacerbated that fact Hall's injury.
4:39
Speaker 5: He's been a limited participant in practice all week. But
4:42
Speaker 5: they need those two guys, and despite the pressure that
4:45
Speaker 5: the four down linemen have given the team, they mostly
4:49
Speaker 5: affected quarterbacks without Derek Hall and Boy Mafey involve too
4:53
Speaker 5: much consistently in that. So it's more of a piecing
4:58
Speaker 5: together the situation, the current circumstances around him, and the
5:04
Speaker 5: fact that to me, unlike Wolan, who has been penalized
5:08
Speaker 5: highly and been beaten for big plays and high profile moments,
5:14
Speaker 5: is also at the end of his rookie deal, I
5:16
Speaker 5: think maffe would have more of attraction over time. He
5:20
Speaker 5: has been a guy who has affected quarterbacks in the
5:23
Speaker 5: previous seasons more than he has there. So I'm not
5:26
Speaker 5: saying it's going to happen. I don't know that it's
5:28
Speaker 5: gonna that the Seahawks are going to make any trades,
5:30
Speaker 5: because for all the talk about trades before the trade deadline,
5:34
Speaker 5: there were only eighteen of them in the thirty two
5:37
Speaker 5: team league last year. The Seahawks, of course, or one
5:39
Speaker 5: of them with Oars Jones that transformed their defense, But
5:42
Speaker 5: I'm not sure I see a transformation type of move
5:46
Speaker 5: The Seahawks are going to make between down and two day.
5:49
Speaker 6: If they were going to make something, where do you
5:51
Speaker 6: think they should make Where?
5:53
Speaker 1: Where should they.
5:53
Speaker 5: Upgrade the interior line, offensive defensive lines, defensive tap depth.
6:02
Speaker 5: They have an issue at right guard. Anthony Bradford's still there, largely,
6:06
Speaker 5: I think because they don't feel they have anybody in
6:08
Speaker 5: the house that can take his place. They had signed
6:10
Speaker 5: Shane Lemue with the practice squad. He'd been a starter
6:13
Speaker 5: with Klitt kobe K system last year in New Orleans,
6:16
Speaker 5: and now he's gone. He was on the practice squad
6:18
Speaker 5: a couple of weeks and then they put him on
6:20
Speaker 5: practice squad injured reserve, and I'm still never quite got
6:23
Speaker 5: to the bottom of how he got hurt on the
6:25
Speaker 5: practice squad. And Christian Haynes just returned this week from
6:30
Speaker 5: the injured reservlist to practice. He's had about four different
6:34
Speaker 5: chances in a year and a half under three four
6:36
Speaker 5: different coaches to win that job, and he hasn't won it.
6:40
Speaker 5: So Anthony Bradford is almost the right guard by default
6:43
Speaker 5: at this point, and he's given up a lot in
6:48
Speaker 5: pass protection and he hasn't in the entire line hasn't
6:51
Speaker 5: performed run blocking like they'd hoped so, defensive tackle guard.
6:58
Speaker 5: Those are the areas that not just now, but longer term,
7:01
Speaker 5: they need depth.
7:02
Speaker 3: Greig Bell is with US our Shawks insider, joining us
7:05
Speaker 3: here on Chucking Buck in the Morning. You can of
7:07
Speaker 3: course follow him at gmail, Seattle on X, or his
7:10
Speaker 3: complete coverage of the Seahawks for you at Thenewstribune dot com.
7:15
Speaker 3: All right, so is there any hope that Julian Love
7:18
Speaker 3: is playing on Sunday or has that been dashed?
7:21
Speaker 5: I don't think so. When McDonald chuck puts out, well,
7:25
Speaker 5: we're considering injured reserve for him. That doesn't mean he's
7:27
Speaker 5: going to play in four days. I mean he's the
7:29
Speaker 5: opposite and he has been not a practice. He was
7:33
Speaker 5: out on the practice field yesterday but did not participate
7:36
Speaker 5: in practice. I saw him coming in from the field.
7:39
Speaker 5: But there's nothing to suggest he's going to play. I'm
7:42
Speaker 5: expecting to be listed us out today. Derek Hall has
7:45
Speaker 5: been a limited participant coming off his hip injury from
7:48
Speaker 5: a couple of games ago, and that's better than nothing.
7:52
Speaker 5: Of course, I think he's going to be questionable. Devin
7:55
Speaker 5: Witherspoon's been full go all week because he looks like
7:58
Speaker 5: he's going to play for the first time since Week
8:00
Speaker 5: four at Arizona, and we've talked about how that may
8:03
Speaker 5: have it moving the chairs around effect and including potentially
8:08
Speaker 5: week Woolen depending on whether they want to put Whittishman
8:10
Speaker 5: inside or outside. Can't see him moving Nick emn worry
8:13
Speaker 5: out of at Nickel. He's just been too good and
8:16
Speaker 5: too impacting there to change the rookie for what he's
8:20
Speaker 5: been doing the last few weeks that Witherspoon has been out,
8:23
Speaker 5: so they're getting better and healthier, but they still won't
8:26
Speaker 5: be whole in the secondary because Love is out. It
8:29
Speaker 5: bears repeating this team has not had its starting secondary
8:33
Speaker 5: together since the fifth play of the season. Yea, Yet
8:36
Speaker 5: they're five and two and being led by their defense often.
8:39
Speaker 6: Gee, I mean, Chuck and I I think are a
8:41
Speaker 6: little bit different and far as far as how confident
8:44
Speaker 6: going into this game. I do think the Seahawks are better.
8:47
Speaker 6: I think they're playing better football. I think they're healthier.
8:49
Speaker 6: They're not worried about their quarterbacks health going into the game.
8:53
Speaker 6: And yet there's a part of me that just kind
8:55
Speaker 6: of feels like, boy, you still better go out there
8:58
Speaker 6: and play a really good game, because I think that
9:00
Speaker 6: the ceiling of the Commanders could still be pretty high
9:03
Speaker 6: if Jaden Daniels goes out there and balls the way
9:05
Speaker 6: he should. So confidence level going into this, I mean,
9:10
Speaker 6: everything looks like you should win this ball game, but
9:12
Speaker 6: how confident are you that they will?
9:15
Speaker 5: Not? A lot? This is still a Commander's team that
9:19
Speaker 5: went to the NFC title game last year. They are
9:22
Speaker 5: a shell of themselves. To help wise, I mentioned they
9:25
Speaker 5: missing both their defense, starting defensive end and starting safety.
9:28
Speaker 5: They've had issues on the offensive line and other quarterback's
9:30
Speaker 5: been hurt, although Jalen Daniels has practiced fully all week
9:34
Speaker 5: coming off the hamstring injury to causing to miss the
9:35
Speaker 5: mind of night game. Maybe the most dangerous thing about
9:39
Speaker 5: this game for the Seahawks and having from the Commanders
9:42
Speaker 5: is the Commanders are desperate. They've lost three in a row.
9:45
Speaker 5: They're three and five. They're talking in Washington about trading
9:49
Speaker 5: some of their older players to get draft picks and
9:51
Speaker 5: build for the future. Is there's something of a rounding
9:56
Speaker 5: up of the cattle for a last charge mental going
10:00
Speaker 5: on Washington right now, and there are a lot of
10:03
Speaker 5: older players in that team that maybe at the end
10:05
Speaker 5: of their tenures in Washington, that they're at the tipping
10:08
Speaker 5: point of a season of whether this still matters to
10:11
Speaker 5: them or not. And if they lose this game to
10:13
Speaker 5: go to three and six, all of a sudden, they
10:15
Speaker 5: may be looking forward to the end of their tenures
10:19
Speaker 5: in a long season, and they could get traded before Tuesday.
10:23
Speaker 5: So this is a pivotal game for them. Obviously, they
10:26
Speaker 5: could go either four and five and still be there
10:29
Speaker 5: or three and six on a four game losing streak.
10:31
Speaker 5: So you're going to see a very desperate team playing
10:33
Speaker 5: on its home field in the primetime game with their
10:36
Speaker 5: quarterback returning from injury. All of that suggests a pretty
10:40
Speaker 5: strong challenge to winning that game if you're the road team.
10:45
Speaker 5: And again, the Seahawks are not a dominant dynamo that
10:49
Speaker 5: just runs over teams. We've seen that time and again,
10:52
Speaker 5: even the Jacksonville game that they completely controlled him. We're
10:55
Speaker 5: winning twenty to six, Suddenly look up in the fourth quarter,
10:58
Speaker 5: it's twenty to twelve and Jacksonville has the ball at
11:00
Speaker 5: midfield trying to drive for the tying score. And I
11:03
Speaker 5: remember sitting in that press box in jackson a couple
11:05
Speaker 5: weeks ago, and how is this game close? The Jaguars
11:10
Speaker 5: haven't even close to competing for most of the day,
11:13
Speaker 5: and yet it was a one score game. That's where
11:16
Speaker 5: the Seahawks are right now. They make enough mistakes. They
11:19
Speaker 5: turned the ball over and mentioned their minus four turnover margin.
11:21
Speaker 5: They had four turnovers against Houston another game they dominated that.
11:25
Speaker 5: You looked up in the fourth court and said, how
11:27
Speaker 5: is this a one score game? You started doing that
11:30
Speaker 5: against Washington on Sunday night and Jaden Daniels is Bible
11:34
Speaker 5: to make a play and all of a sudden you're
11:35
Speaker 5: lose it. So that's where they are right now.
11:37
Speaker 1: To me, Greg bellis with us our Seahawks insider.
11:41
Speaker 3: Well, if they're rounding up their cattle, I know a
11:43
Speaker 3: great place all the commanders cowboys should look in the
11:46
Speaker 3: training room. That's where most of the price cows are
11:49
Speaker 3: right now. For this roster. Terry mclaurin's not going to play.
11:55
Speaker 3: How does that change things for Mike McDonald.
11:59
Speaker 5: Well, honestly, McDonald focuses on the stopping the run first,
12:03
Speaker 5: making the one dimensional, trying to get your pass rush
12:06
Speaker 5: to affect the quarterback on long third downs, and McLaren
12:08
Speaker 5: has nothing to do with all that. Never gonna use
12:11
Speaker 5: Deebo Samuel as something of a runner. The Seahawks have
12:13
Speaker 5: seen that more than anybody in the league. The forty
12:15
Speaker 5: nine ers using Samuel that way, but they don't have
12:18
Speaker 5: too many backs. They traded Brian Robinson, Austin Eckler's on
12:23
Speaker 5: injured reserve out for the year. They just got some
12:26
Speaker 5: dudes back there. They got hyphenated names and a bunch
12:29
Speaker 5: of other guys I never heard of. That's they're running back,
12:31
Speaker 5: which is why Jayden Daniels off in the runs when
12:33
Speaker 5: he's healthy, and why they're going to use Deebo Samuel
12:36
Speaker 5: some more so. To me, Samuel is a bigger concern
12:39
Speaker 5: even if McLaren was in there, because of his multi
12:42
Speaker 5: dimensional use and what he's done to the Seahawks in
12:45
Speaker 5: the past. I think that McDonald's game plan would be
12:49
Speaker 5: to focus primarily on everything that Deebo Samuel could possibly
12:53
Speaker 5: do to them, not to mention Jayden Daniels. Yes, he's
12:56
Speaker 5: coming off the hamstring injury. Say he may not run
12:58
Speaker 5: as much or tested as much, but if he's playing,
13:00
Speaker 5: then he's going to play. It's not like you can
13:02
Speaker 5: tell a twenty two to twenty three year old quarterback.
13:05
Speaker 5: Just don't run if they're pressuring you because you've been
13:07
Speaker 5: hurt recently. He's going to take off running and he's
13:10
Speaker 5: going to be a threat outside the pocket.
13:12
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, my key, I've been thinking, you just
13:15
Speaker 6: got to kind of make sure you control the run game.
13:18
Speaker 6: And that's Jayden Daniels and Deebo Samuel and the Crosskey
13:22
Speaker 6: Merrit Kid. I mean, they statistically have been the most
13:26
Speaker 6: stout as far as we're rushing yards allowed up to
13:29
Speaker 6: this point.
13:29
Speaker 5: Number one in the league.
13:31
Speaker 6: And so does it just keep doing what you've been doing,
13:34
Speaker 6: because I mean, outside of Kyler Murray, I suppose maybe
13:37
Speaker 6: even I guess yeah, he said Kyler Murray, I think would
13:41
Speaker 6: probably be the only one that I can think of
13:43
Speaker 6: a running quarterback.
13:44
Speaker 1: They haven't had this kind of dual threat.
13:46
Speaker 6: Now, this is almost maybe even a triple threat of
13:48
Speaker 6: guys that can run the ball for them.
13:51
Speaker 5: Yeah. I would submit to Baker Mayfield as well, not
13:53
Speaker 5: a running quarterback, as a quarterback back can run and
13:56
Speaker 5: extend plays and take off up the field. And he
13:58
Speaker 5: killed them, absolutely killed them. They've had trouble containing the edge.
14:05
Speaker 5: They've had trouble tackling, including quarterbacks in the open field,
14:09
Speaker 5: and that will be that Jayden Daniels, even with coming
14:13
Speaker 5: off a hamstring injury, will will expose if you have
14:16
Speaker 5: problems in those regards on Sunday night, I I'm just
14:21
Speaker 5: when they are statistically number one in the league against
14:25
Speaker 5: the run, but when you sit and watch a game,
14:27
Speaker 5: teams just don't run a lot against them. They haven't
14:30
Speaker 5: had an early down success. They've had a lot of
14:32
Speaker 5: long third downs that have caused them to throw even
14:34
Speaker 5: long second downs that have put in passing situations, and
14:37
Speaker 5: that has fed into this pressure rate. The Seahawks have
14:40
Speaker 5: be able to generate in long yardage. The teams just
14:43
Speaker 5: haven't done it a lot to test them. Then Washington
14:47
Speaker 5: the other night, they had a very sharp opening drive
14:50
Speaker 5: with run and pass and then they end up with
14:53
Speaker 5: just sixty yards for the whole game for rushing. They
14:55
Speaker 5: only had five rushing attempts after halftime and a score
14:58
Speaker 5: that was it was tie and then a one score
15:01
Speaker 5: fourteen to seven game until late in the third quarter,
15:03
Speaker 5: and they didn't even try to run. And part of
15:06
Speaker 5: what Seattle's run defense success has been is teams don't
15:10
Speaker 5: run against them because they've been in long yardis off
15:12
Speaker 5: of early down failures. That's the rest of the McDonald's
15:16
Speaker 5: keep trying to replicate every year every week. I mean,
15:19
Speaker 5: the defensive game plan is boiled down most simply is
15:23
Speaker 5: stop them on early downs, so it's second and third
15:25
Speaker 5: and long so you can then dictate. You could pressure,
15:28
Speaker 5: you could blitz, you can disguise and change coverages, you
15:31
Speaker 5: can do a lot of things. The other thing that's
15:34
Speaker 5: going to change for Seattle with Nick even Worry and
15:37
Speaker 5: Devin Witherspoon on the field Sunday night for the first
15:40
Speaker 5: time since the first five players of the year, is
15:42
Speaker 5: McDonald's gonna blitz more. We mentioned that he's got a
15:45
Speaker 5: really low blitz rate compared to what he expected to.
15:48
Speaker 5: He said, he's not at all played like he thought
15:50
Speaker 5: he was going to be playing this year. But now
15:52
Speaker 5: with even Worry and Witherspoon back, they're gonna blitz more
15:55
Speaker 5: out of the back end, and that's going to change
15:57
Speaker 5: the pressure in how Seattle gets the quarterback. Now, of course,
16:01
Speaker 5: the dangers you're blitzing Jadan Daniels, You've got to be
16:03
Speaker 5: pretty quick and pretty latterly able to run laterly to
16:08
Speaker 5: catch him going outside, but I'm expecting to see more
16:11
Speaker 5: pressure than four on Sunday night that we've been seeing
16:15
Speaker 5: in a while.
16:15
Speaker 3: Awesome stuff. Thank you, Greg, We appreciate it. Have a
16:18
Speaker 3: great weekend and we'll talk to you Monday morning.
16:22
Speaker 5: Okay, happy weekend. Thank you, Greg Bell.

17:07
Speaker 3: Coming up next on the radio program, We're gonna play
17:09
Speaker 3: some Factor fiction at seven thirty five. Also another example
17:14
Speaker 3: of how maybe the Seahawks have been masquerading here on
17:18
Speaker 3: Halloween Sports.
17:19
Speaker 1: Radio ninety three point three KJRFM.
17:21
Speaker 3: You know, I was going to talk a seahawk thing
17:24
Speaker 3: and then do ghost stories at seven forty five, but
17:26
Speaker 3: that just reminded me of my ghost that we experienced yesterday.
17:29
Speaker 3: So maybe we talk about ghost stories right now, getting
17:31
Speaker 3: into factor fiction if he likes you, Friedric, Yeah, yesterday
17:36
Speaker 3: a ghost.
17:37
Speaker 1: Appeared on our show live on our radio show, right
17:39
Speaker 1: in the middle of it all.
17:41
Speaker 7: Yeah, Bucky was Yeah, Bucky didn't even know what to
17:44
Speaker 7: do when he heard it because he was so terrifle.
17:46
Speaker 3: We were on a zoom call, Greg Bell. We were
17:49
Speaker 3: doing the roundtable yesterday, Greg Bell, you Millin. I mean
17:52
Speaker 3: we could see everybody, right, we could see them. We're
17:55
Speaker 3: on a zoom call while we're doing the segment, and
17:58
Speaker 3: there was this mysterious like noise. It sounded like slimer
18:01
Speaker 3: like eating and drinking and breathing heavily and like it
18:05
Speaker 3: just was very disruptive. And then this start this stuff
18:09
Speaker 3: started like right in the middle of the segment, and
18:14
Speaker 3: and I'm watching both of our guests, and I know
18:18
Speaker 3: I can see both of the two other members here
18:20
Speaker 3: of the show, and that was not matching up the
18:24
Speaker 3: audio with anything that Hugh and Greg were doing. And
18:28
Speaker 3: then I'm like, well, maybe because Hugh was drinking like
18:30
Speaker 3: a Sodi pop or something. I'm like, maybe we're on delay.
18:35
Speaker 3: And I almost like went to my talkback button with Ashley.
18:39
Speaker 3: I said, I think we're on delay because I'm hearing
18:42
Speaker 3: all that slurping that Hugh must be doing. Yeah, on delay.
18:47
Speaker 3: And then I asked you a question and he answered
18:50
Speaker 3: it immediately, so we weren't on delay. The only conclusion
18:54
Speaker 3: logically that you can draw is that a ghost appeared
18:58
Speaker 3: on our show yesterday, and I think it's awesome.
19:00
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, I know you like ghosts.
19:03
Speaker 6: You like the idea of it, except for the Oregon
19:04
Speaker 6: Coast ghost, You're not a fan of that.
19:06
Speaker 3: They swing alone.
19:07
Speaker 6: Yeah, and the than your phone rings, that was an
19:10
Speaker 6: odd one, great ghost story. Yeah, I still think it
19:14
Speaker 6: probably is just a technology glitch.
19:17
Speaker 1: Before that was stupid.
19:21
Speaker 6: I think I think it's more logical, uh, than than
19:25
Speaker 6: a ghost. I think that because we did hear we
19:28
Speaker 6: did hear you drink take a drink, and then this
19:32
Speaker 6: was one.
19:33
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I know I must be the high one.
19:36
Speaker 6: Yeah, right now, do you acknowledge that that's a possibility
19:42
Speaker 6: tell me that this is the show most time issue drugs.
19:46
Speaker 1: Listen. I think that's something weird you're doing in there.
19:53
Speaker 1: That was on our show yesterday. I didn't hear that
19:55
Speaker 1: on our show.
19:56
Speaker 3: That's yeah, there was something, and then actually just sort
20:01
Speaker 3: of isolated on it.
20:03
Speaker 1: That's what was coming over our airwaves. There wasn't another.
20:06
Speaker 3: Audio pot up open, nothing, Hugh's head wasn't spinning around,
20:11
Speaker 3: Greg Bell wasn't puking up pea soup. Nothing, nothing visual
20:15
Speaker 3: was causing any of those noises, and yet they appeared.
20:19
Speaker 1: Out of nowhere.
20:19
Speaker 7: I thought maybe someone had just logged onto our remote
20:23
Speaker 7: access and was just sitting there listening and having a beverage.
20:27
Speaker 3: But there wasn't anyone there.
20:28
Speaker 1: Ghost ghost, I have another ghost story to tell.
20:32
Speaker 3: Got a lot piled, a lot of them, likestories. You've
20:35
Speaker 3: got really good ones.
20:36
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I'll scare their pants off of you. Yeah,
20:38
Speaker 1: you will scare this onesie off of me. Yeah, like
20:45
Speaker 1: Bucky's like, please scare the ones off. Oh my god, about.
20:52
Speaker 3: I must strip all my clothes off. No ghosts, don't
20:56
Speaker 3: take me, just take my clothes.
20:58
Speaker 6: Yeah that's where I say, I'm all right.
21:03
Speaker 3: Let's play some Factor Fiction. We're set to go.
21:07
Speaker 1: Glad you're with us.
21:07
Speaker 4: It's your shot at our weekly thousand bucks and the
21:11
Speaker 4: ten thousand dollars grand prize. It's Factor Fiction, probably presented
21:16
Speaker 4: by Lucky Eagle Casino and hotel where every day feels lucky.
21:21
Speaker 4: Factor Fiction is on Sports Radio ninety three point three
21:25
Speaker 4: kJ R FM.
21:40
Speaker 3: All right, I just remembered it as my pick.
21:42
Speaker 6: Oh you have one earlier that I don't think got taken.
21:48
Speaker 6: Remember this week you said college.
21:51
Speaker 1: I'm true.
21:52
Speaker 3: I was gonna see if anybody had taken the Seahawks.
21:55
Speaker 7: They somebody took the Seahawks minas three and a half.
21:57
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, then good, then I'll just go ahead and
21:59
Speaker 3: take this. Don't know what the line is right now, though,
22:01
Speaker 3: because I honestly just got caught off for you. It's
22:05
Speaker 3: the Great Cocktail Party. It's Georgia versus Florida. I don't
22:09
Speaker 3: care how many points that the Florida Gators are getting.
22:12
Speaker 3: They're losing, and they're gonna lose soundly to the Georgia
22:14
Speaker 3: Bullet and a half seven and a half.
22:16
Speaker 1: I'll take it.
22:17
Speaker 3: So I'm gonna take the Georgia Bulldogs. That's not a
22:20
Speaker 3: home field game, even though it says at Florida that's
22:23
Speaker 3: in Jacksonville, Florida, that spits spits splits the difference between
22:28
Speaker 3: Athens and Gainesville. And so that's a neutral field game.
22:33
Speaker 3: So there's not even some great home field advantage that
22:36
Speaker 3: Florida is gonna glean from this contest.
22:39
Speaker 1: Either.
22:39
Speaker 3: There'll be more Georgia Bulldog fans than Florida Gator fans
22:42
Speaker 3: in the stands. So I'm gonna take the Georgia Bulldogs,
22:45
Speaker 3: a much better team. And I think that there's also
22:49
Speaker 3: another element to this as well, And this is I
22:52
Speaker 3: think part of the nil world that we're in, this
22:55
Speaker 3: college football coaching firing thing.
22:57
Speaker 1: Once upon a time you.
22:58
Speaker 3: Might rally around your coach being fired. They've had two
23:01
Speaker 3: weeks off, they had a bye week last week, They've
23:03
Speaker 3: had two weeks off. You think they thought about, man,
23:07
Speaker 3: let's show the world what Gator football is about. Maybe,
23:11
Speaker 3: but I think probably in today's world, they spent two
23:14
Speaker 3: weeks thinking where am I going to transfer?
23:16
Speaker 1: Yeah?
23:17
Speaker 3: Most likely Coach Napier is the reason I came here.
23:20
Speaker 3: He's not here with us anymore. He even got fired
23:23
Speaker 3: after a win. So where do I want to play
23:26
Speaker 3: football next year. I think they spent the two weeks
23:29
Speaker 3: trying to figure out where they're going to go to
23:32
Speaker 3: next season. I think George is coming in here with
23:34
Speaker 3: a national championship to play for, and the Gators are
23:38
Speaker 3: coming in here thinking about where they're going to go
23:41
Speaker 3: to college next year. So give me the Georgia Bulldogs
23:44
Speaker 3: in a blowout over the Florida Gators. I'll lay the
23:47
Speaker 3: seven and a half points on a neutral field. The
23:50
Speaker 3: Bulldogs are winning by eight points or more. All right,
23:53
Speaker 3: I like the conviction.
23:54
Speaker 1: All right.
23:54
Speaker 3: If you agree with the selection, go ahead and text
23:57
Speaker 3: fact to four nine four five one. If you disagree
23:59
Speaker 3: with the pick, texts fiction two.
24:01
Speaker 1: Four nine four five one.
24:02
Speaker 3: If you're right, we enter your name into a drawing
24:04
Speaker 3: for one thousand dollars in cash.
24:07
Speaker 1: If you're wrong, who cares?
24:09
Speaker 3: Try again the next time, because every single time you
24:12
Speaker 3: play and win, you get your name entered into that
24:14
Speaker 3: one thousand dollars cash prize drawing, And if you're right
24:19
Speaker 3: enough this year, then ten thousand dollars will be yours.
24:22
Speaker 1: That's right.
24:23
Speaker 3: The winner of our Factor Fiction season gets a ten
24:27
Speaker 3: thousand dollars prize from Lucky Eagle Casino and hotel where
24:34
Speaker 3: every day feels lucky and every day you have an
24:37
Speaker 3: eagle screech at you, which is magical, it's scary. They're
24:41
Speaker 3: going twenty four every Friday and Saturday. Twenty four hour
24:44
Speaker 3: gaming starts November seventh at Luckyeagle dot com. So I'm
24:48
Speaker 3: taking the Georgia Bulldogs minus seven and a half points
24:52
Speaker 3: at the cocktail party in Jacksonville. So if you agree
24:57
Speaker 3: that the Bulldogs will win by eight points or more
25:00
Speaker 3: against Florida, text fact to four nine four or five
25:03
Speaker 3: to one. If you disagree, text fiction to four nine
25:07
Speaker 3: four five one. Your next opportunity to play this morning
25:10
Speaker 3: is at eleven thirty five with Mark James and Christopher
25:13
Speaker 3: Kidd right here at Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM.
25:17
Speaker 3: Coming up next, I'll bring up that other masquerade situation
25:21
Speaker 3: going on with the Seahawks Sports Radio ninety three point
25:24
Speaker 3: three kJ RFM.
25:26
Speaker 2: I like that.
25:26
Speaker 3: You think that's weird though, Ah.
25:28
Speaker 1: That's odd. Yeah, she's that.
25:30
Speaker 3: Popular, Yeah, and she's actually good.
25:33
Speaker 1: She's actually good at it.
25:34
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's weird. She got a record contract.
25:36
Speaker 1: Yeah.
25:36
Speaker 3: I think there are some that are very popular that
25:39
Speaker 3: aren't that. Oh, yeah, for sure, but yeah, yeah, she's
25:41
Speaker 3: pretty good. But I don't think you stick around as
25:43
Speaker 3: long as Rihanna if you're not good.
25:45
Speaker 1: Pretty good in her craft.
25:46
Speaker 3: Yeah, she should stick with this career. Yeah, I think
25:48
Speaker 3: you should stick with it and not be risked to
25:51
Speaker 3: jump over to sports talk radio. It's working for you, rereach,
25:54
Speaker 3: which is probably your dream job. Probably most Yes, she
25:58
Speaker 3: could be wearing a onesie right now with us.
26:01
Speaker 1: Probably is still wearing a onesie wanting.
26:04
Speaker 3: Her onesies are sexy.
26:08
Speaker 6: You'll make it sexy for you.
26:11
Speaker 3: See, I have seen a lot of Bucki's upper torso today,
26:16
Speaker 3: A lot of it, A lot more than I bargained
26:18
Speaker 3: for it.
26:18
Speaker 7: When I brought in the show sheets earlier, I almost
26:20
Speaker 7: felt like I needed to look away, Like I felt
26:22
Speaker 7: like I was like staring at too much cleavage.
26:25
Speaker 1: Seem like a guy at a swimming pool.
26:29
Speaker 7: But it's not usually unzipped to just show like the
26:33
Speaker 7: deep v it feels like you're feels like, so.
26:35
Speaker 1: I take it the entire top part of it.
26:38
Speaker 3: More comfortable, feels uncomfortable, all right, this one had this
26:42
Speaker 3: onesie idea, and I wouldn't this.
26:44
Speaker 1: I didn't factor in because he's doing it again.
26:47
Speaker 3: Yeah, he is just taking it off. It's jugging Box
26:50
Speaker 3: Sports Radio ninety three point three k A r f M.
26:52
Speaker 3: We got the show coming your way. Here at the
26:54
Speaker 3: top of the hour, eight top stories of the day.
26:57
Speaker 3: We'll get you ready for the weekend. Wrap up the
26:58
Speaker 3: week with the front Ocho plus Hughes coming.
27:02
Speaker 1: Coach is coming.
27:03
Speaker 3: We got a lot more to do on this program.
27:06
Speaker 3: I mentioned at the beginning of the show that the
27:08
Speaker 3: Seahawks a little bit of a masquerade. I don't think
27:11
Speaker 3: that the offensive line was some villain, some monster, and
27:15
Speaker 3: then all of a sudden, Gray's Abel came in and oh,
27:18
Speaker 3: we've just took off our masks.
27:20
Speaker 1: We're actually really good. I think maybe there was more
27:24
Speaker 1: that went into it. I think it was a little deceiving.
27:26
Speaker 3: I think that there was a lot more that I
27:28
Speaker 3: had to do with quarterbacks not getting rid of the
27:30
Speaker 3: football than it did that our offensive line was just
27:33
Speaker 3: the worst thing ever. And then this year it's fixed
27:37
Speaker 3: because of Grey's Abel. Another thing that may have been
27:40
Speaker 3: masking arraiding around since the beginning of the year. And
27:45
Speaker 3: I want to compare DK Metcalf with Terry McLaurin, who
27:48
Speaker 3: are getting ready to face and I think Terry mclaurin's
27:51
Speaker 3: a terrific wide receiver, but is he like upper echelon?
27:54
Speaker 3: Is he on that top tier? Is he Jamar Chase?
27:57
Speaker 3: Is he justin Jefferson? I think we all agreed no, right,
28:02
Speaker 3: he's not on the top tier. And yet he got
28:06
Speaker 3: thirty two million dollars a year this year to disrupt
28:11
Speaker 3: camp and then get hurt, and he hasn't really contributed.
28:15
Speaker 3: And even when he does contribute, I mean, they were
28:18
Speaker 3: looking to Deebo Samuel more than McLaurin in games that
28:21
Speaker 3: even McLaren was playing, and you paid thirty two million
28:24
Speaker 3: dollars a year for this guy. I think it's time
28:28
Speaker 3: maybe to give credit to John Schneider for a very
28:33
Speaker 3: difficult DK metcalf situation and decision that he had made
28:37
Speaker 3: from earlier this year, because we were in the similar
28:41
Speaker 3: vote and decided not to give the second tier wide
28:45
Speaker 3: receiver the first tier money for wide receiver to put
28:49
Speaker 3: faith that Jackson Smith and Jigba is our future wide
28:53
Speaker 3: receiver one and even though it would be nice, it
28:57
Speaker 3: would be luxurious to be able to have both of
28:59
Speaker 3: these guys on the field at the exact same time.
29:02
Speaker 3: Can we spend that thirty million dollars more effectively in
29:06
Speaker 3: the off season getting a DeMarcus Lawrence. I mean, Cooper
29:11
Speaker 3: Cup obviously is part of that equation without DK Metcalf,
29:15
Speaker 3: but by going with Cupp and then you gave yourself
29:18
Speaker 3: the chance to add other pieces to this team. Plus
29:21
Speaker 3: you're not hamstrung going forward as the decline starts in
29:25
Speaker 3: Terry mclaurin's game now that he's over thirty, and the
29:28
Speaker 3: decline starts potentially in DKs game, even though he still
29:32
Speaker 3: looks just as you know, athletic as ever. So I
29:37
Speaker 3: think there's time. It's time to, like halfway through this season,
29:41
Speaker 3: to give credit because that was not an easy decision.
29:43
Speaker 3: It's one that we bantered about for a long, long
29:46
Speaker 3: period of time, and I think John Schneider nailed it
29:49
Speaker 3: by saying I like to have him, but it just
29:53
Speaker 3: makes more sense to move off of DK Metcalf right now,
29:57
Speaker 3: get a little bit of return trade while we can
30:01
Speaker 3: and turn our future wide receiver one position over to
30:05
Speaker 3: number eleven.
30:07
Speaker 6: Well, instead of putting a bunch of eggs into that
30:09
Speaker 6: one basket. Is as good as that basket looks, it
30:12
Speaker 6: hadn't performed that way now there's a part of me
30:16
Speaker 6: that it would is curious, right if you could have
30:18
Speaker 6: a pill and go back now and see what DK
30:22
Speaker 6: looks like with Sam Darnold versus Geno Smith. There's a
30:26
Speaker 6: part of me it's like, maybe he wouldn't be second tier,
30:29
Speaker 6: maybe he actually would be worthy of the money that
30:32
Speaker 6: he's getting paid.
30:34
Speaker 1: Now.
30:34
Speaker 6: That said, I do think that that you have to
30:36
Speaker 6: make difficult decisions. I think that's one of the things
30:38
Speaker 6: that does get overlooked for GMS across the board is
30:42
Speaker 6: sometimes you have to say goodbye to something that you
30:44
Speaker 6: really really like because you can get three things that
30:47
Speaker 6: you like and three you know, the sum of the
30:51
Speaker 6: parts might meet me equal more than just the amount
30:54
Speaker 6: of what you thought you could get. Or you would
30:57
Speaker 6: hope that you get out of a big, high price
31:00
Speaker 6: player like what DK was expecting.
31:02
Speaker 3: Yeah, you extended Ernest Jones and gave him a pay raise.
31:05
Speaker 3: I mean think about that. I mean, I don't think
31:08
Speaker 3: DeMarcus Lawrence is you know, dominated or anything. And Cooper
31:12
Speaker 3: Cup obviously has been very used very little. And yeah,
31:15
Speaker 3: we could entertain the prospect of having DK and JSN
31:17
Speaker 3: together with Sam.
31:19
Speaker 1: Darnold throwing them footballs.
31:20
Speaker 3: Absolutely but I think that Washington might have made a mistake.
31:26
Speaker 3: Maybe they should have traded Terry McLaurin rather than sign
31:29
Speaker 3: him to a long term extension. Everybody in the league
31:32
Speaker 3: now talking about how the Commanders, we didn't really notice
31:36
Speaker 3: how old they were when they were making their push
31:39
Speaker 3: to the NFC title game, and that could have been
31:42
Speaker 3: an opportunity for them to get a couple younger pieces
31:46
Speaker 3: for an older receiver and max out his value without
31:51
Speaker 3: having to pay him thirty two million dollars a year,
31:53
Speaker 3: which he might not be worth.
31:55
Speaker 7: Right, Yeah, Yeah, I think I definitely think that it's
31:58
Speaker 7: time to give Schneider the full credit for that move.
32:00
Speaker 3: I think it was the right move.
32:01
Speaker 7: I know, obviously a difficult move to do in the
32:04
Speaker 7: way that he was questioned, not just locally but nashally,
32:06
Speaker 7: like what is he doing this is?
32:08
Speaker 3: I mean especially nationally.
32:09
Speaker 7: Actually, they thought the Seahawks were going to be terrible
32:12
Speaker 7: because you got rid of Geno Smith and DK metcalf
32:14
Speaker 7: And I used this word earlier, but I'll use it again.
32:18
Speaker 3: I just think it was a solid plan.
32:22
Speaker 7: Like what has transpired now you've got more of a
32:27
Speaker 7: well rounded opportunity.
32:29
Speaker 3: We are a better football teaes this year than we
32:31
Speaker 3: were a youre yes at this time. So anyway, just
32:35
Speaker 3: a thought both of those things crossed my mind as
32:37
Speaker 3: I was driving into work this morning. I do want
32:40
Speaker 3: to mention one last thing before we go to the
32:42
Speaker 3: top of the break right now, and I don't even
32:45
Speaker 3: know why it's on, but Steven A. Smith's talk show
32:48
Speaker 3: is on our television right now, and Ryan Clark today
32:51
Speaker 3: because it's Halloween, dressed up as the Mad Hatter.
32:54
Speaker 1: Oh and it's a great costume.
32:56
Speaker 3: He's got the crush velvet purple you know, jacket and
33:00
Speaker 3: the big orange top hat and so he dressed up
33:03
Speaker 3: for Halloween. And what's funny about it is Cam Newton
33:06
Speaker 3: did not dress up for Halloween.
33:08
