Speaker 2: to analyze? Oh, no big deal, just a super buld
1:14
Speaker 2: Chavan ship. They Seeattle Seahawks are world champs as of
1:20
Speaker 2: last night, rolling into this morning and for the rest
1:24
Speaker 2: of their lives and you two whether you're listening at home,
1:28

Speaker 2: with you. Wow, apparently we got some strong capabilities. Yea,
1:36
Speaker 2: you are a champion too, Act like it, strut like it.
1:42

Speaker 2: that tight end, rub it in, Let your tight end out. Yeah.
1:56
Speaker 2: Welcome into the radio show. We roll into our seven
1:59
Speaker 2: o'clock hour here on this super Monday. As we are
2:04
Speaker 2: all champions here today. Greg Bell's going to join us
2:07
Speaker 2: in about a minute and a half. Can't wait to
2:09
Speaker 2: get our Seahawks insiders thoughts. Let me first let you
2:12
Speaker 2: know about Frostbrewed Corps Light Choose Chill headlines here today
2:16
Speaker 2: Seahawks twenty nine to thirteen winners over the New England Patriots.
2:19
Speaker 2: The highlight courtesy of Westwood One. As the Seahawks dominated,
2:23
Speaker 2: allowing just seventy eight yards of total offense through three quarters,
2:28
Speaker 2: Patriots ended up racking up quite a few yards in
2:31
Speaker 2: that fourth quarter, but the game had already been decided
2:34
Speaker 2: for the most part, and the Seahawks celebrate their second
2:37
Speaker 2: Super Bowl title in franchise history. The defense was the
2:41
Speaker 2: real story, but Ken Walker the Third ignited what offense
2:45
Speaker 2: that you did need for the game last night, and
2:47
Speaker 2: he was rewarded with Super Bowl sixty MVP. Clint Kubiak, Boy,
2:53
Speaker 2: he didn't beat around the bush. He didn't even get
2:55
Speaker 2: off the field before letting the NFL network know that
2:58
Speaker 2: he is absolutely going to be the next head coach
3:01
Speaker 2: of the Las Vegas Raiders. So the offseason begins immediately.
3:04
Speaker 2: I'm sure it's already begun for John Schneider. I'm sure
3:07
Speaker 2: he's already tabbed the offensive coordinator. He would like Clint
3:11
Speaker 2: to replace Clint Kubiak, but Kubiak is going to be
3:15
Speaker 2: with the Raiders. We should get an official announcement, I
3:18
Speaker 2: would imagine today. The NFL offseason has begun. We are
3:22
Speaker 2: just two weeks away from the NFL Combine, if you
3:25
Speaker 2: can believe it, and just one month away from the
3:28
Speaker 2: free agency frenzy beginning in the National Football League. In
3:32
Speaker 2: the meantime, baseball season is here. Pitchers and catchers have
3:36
Speaker 2: reported in some major league cities. Meanwhile, the Mariners will
3:40
Speaker 2: report tomorrow. On Thursday, they will have their first workout,
3:45
Speaker 2: and then the whole group, the whole shebang, will be
3:47
Speaker 2: together in eight days. On the seventeenth, Bucky and I
3:50
Speaker 2: will be back there to greet them all next weeks
3:54
Speaker 2: and so here we go. We're ready to transition, but
3:58
Speaker 2: not after a week, not until after a week of
4:01
Speaker 2: celebrating the Seahawks Super Bowl championship. So let's find out
4:05
Speaker 2: more about last night from our Seahawks insider. Greg Bell joins.
4:09
Speaker 3: Him with the Bell Tolls.
4:11

Speaker 4: Now with twelf Man News, here's Greg Bell with Chuck
4:30
Speaker 4: and Bud.
4:32
Speaker 3: Good morning, Greg, Good morning.
4:36
Speaker 2: How are you doing.
4:39
Speaker 3: Tired?
4:40
Speaker 2: What time did you get What time did you get
4:42
Speaker 2: home last night? About two two? Okay, all right, that's
4:49
Speaker 2: the Yeah.
4:50
Speaker 3: I'm not I'm in San Francisco.
4:53
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, that would.
4:55
Speaker 3: Be I'd have to have a private jet again. Stateiument won.
5:01
Speaker 2: Yeah, That's what I meant. What time did you get
5:02
Speaker 2: out of the stadium last night?
5:05
Speaker 3: All right?
5:06
Speaker 2: So I mean I don't want to lead you anywhere.
5:09
Speaker 2: I mean, the team you cover won at second Super
5:13
Speaker 2: Bowl in franchise history. Where does the conversation start with you?
5:19
Speaker 2: The morning after.
5:21
Speaker 3: Mike McDonald's defense, I mean, it went exactly pat the brag.
5:26
Speaker 3: It went exactly as I told you would happen. The
5:28
Speaker 3: defense was going to throttle Drake May, that the game
5:31
Speaker 3: plan was to just siege him, and they did. Chenn
5:35
Speaker 3: and Wills, who was telling me last night that they
5:38
Speaker 3: knew that the whole team was Drake May and if
5:41
Speaker 3: they affected him and blitzed him, in fact, much more
5:45
Speaker 3: than Mike McDonald had blitzed probably all seasons, certainly over
5:49
Speaker 3: the latter half of the season, and they knew they
5:51
Speaker 3: could get after him and then they'd win the game
5:53
Speaker 3: that way. They'd scored enough points on offense where it
5:57
Speaker 3: really didn't matter, and that's what happened. Nineteen to nothing
6:01
Speaker 3: early in the fourth. Could forget the yardy. The statistics
6:05
Speaker 3: are just skewed from the game last night. The total
6:08
Speaker 3: yardie ended up almost the same, and the Patriots got
6:12
Speaker 3: most of those in garbage time. Speaking of statistics, I
6:15
Speaker 3: voted for Devin Witherspoon for MVP. There were three of
6:19
Speaker 3: us in the Seattle media contingent that had MVP votes.
6:22
Speaker 3: The league gave us the opportunity for that. I think
6:25
Speaker 3: it was sixteen to twenty might bee more than that
6:28
Speaker 3: overall MVP votes. And I Kenneth Walker was absolutely deserving,
6:34
Speaker 3: and I'm not trying to say it wasn't, but him
6:37
Speaker 3: winning the MVP award is purely a statistical Somebody just
6:40
Speaker 3: looked at a status he said, whosha I pick. Nobody
6:43
Speaker 3: who watched that game didn't think the most valuable part
6:46
Speaker 3: of that team was the defense, and nobody who truly
6:49
Speaker 3: watched the game didn't see Devin Witherspoon and Derek Hall
6:53
Speaker 3: is probably two of the more deserving ones, which you
6:55
Speaker 3: could have said Byron Murphy with two snacks. But there's
6:59
Speaker 3: only been six, eight, eight defensive MVPs in the sixty
7:07
Speaker 3: year history of the Super Bowl, and I thought an
7:09
Speaker 3: MVP vote to a defensive player would have been symbolic
7:12
Speaker 3: for the reason the Seahawks won the Super Bowl. I
7:15
Speaker 3: wish Seahawks fans back in Seattle could have been in
7:17
Speaker 3: the locker room after the game. It was a celebration
7:20
Speaker 3: of nearly fifty years of Seahawks football.
7:23
Speaker 2: But it was.
7:26
Speaker 3: Everything you could imagine. It would have been their Karen
7:28
Speaker 3: champagne bottles and Don Julio bottles, and none of them
7:33
Speaker 3: were very full and cigar smoke just you know, usually
7:39
Speaker 3: they the pro sport athletes put ski goggles on to
7:44
Speaker 3: keep champagne out of their eyes, right, I really think
7:47
Speaker 3: that some of the guys are wearing the ski goggles
7:49
Speaker 3: to keep the cigar smoke out of their eyes because
7:51
Speaker 3: you couldn't see from one side of the walk room
7:53
Speaker 3: to the other. They're all taking thirds of hoist in
7:57
Speaker 3: the Lombardi Trophy, imposing for that to Sam Darno and
8:01
Speaker 3: the Marcus Lawrence huking in the middle of the locker room.
8:03
Speaker 3: Twenty years combined of NFL careers for those two and
8:08
Speaker 3: this is their first Super Bowl championship, and John Schneider
8:13
Speaker 3: and right in the middle of it all talking about
8:15
Speaker 3: how difficult. I asked them, how old is this to
8:18
Speaker 3: do this twice with two different gems and going starting over.
8:22
Speaker 3: He'd say anything, this was a mountain to climb twice
8:26
Speaker 3: and he's done it. He's really ushered in an incredible
8:31
Speaker 3: run of Seahawks football.
8:34
Speaker 2: Without a doubt.
8:35
Speaker 5: I mean, the Mike McDonald led defense. I mean, now
8:38
Speaker 5: that it's culminated in a Super Bowl and being champions,
8:42
Speaker 5: I mean, they kind of keep some things close to
8:45
Speaker 5: the vest about what they do and they give you
8:46
Speaker 5: a little sound bite or slogans that they kind of
8:49
Speaker 5: go by. But is there a slogan that you would
8:52
Speaker 5: say best personifies this team or is it did you
8:55
Speaker 5: learn anything new in the locker room after they are
8:58
Speaker 5: hoisting the trophy that that was just like, this is
9:01
Speaker 5: all of it encompassing with you know, the beyond just
9:04
Speaker 5: the chasing edges.
9:05
Speaker 2: Are you know, cool and calm or whatever?
9:07
Speaker 5: There's relaxed and focused And I mean, what is it
9:11
Speaker 5: that you would say Mike McDonald's mo of this championship team.
9:14
Speaker 3: Is twelve is one bucky. I mean, to me, that
9:18
Speaker 3: is the most symbolic of what Mike McDonald has built
9:21
Speaker 3: in the culture. He's built culture matters, the intangibles of
9:26
Speaker 3: togetherness and want to and direction and clarity of mission.
9:33
Speaker 3: Mike McDonald is so clear and so consistent, and the
9:37
Speaker 3: players were either going to get along and adopt that,
9:42
Speaker 3: or they weren't going to be here, as Sam Darod
9:44
Speaker 3: explained afterwards, and you can deduce from a couple of
9:47
Speaker 3: things who he means by I didn't want to we're
9:50
Speaker 3: going to be here as a quarterback starting to be
9:53
Speaker 3: number one. They chose guys that they knew would lead
9:58
Speaker 3: what McDonald wanted lead, and that was this complete buy in,
10:02
Speaker 3: guys like the Marcus Lawrence who were going the epitome
10:06
Speaker 3: of practicing back in April and May. In April and May,
10:10
Speaker 3: oh May, in mini camps and otia's Mike McDonald was
10:13
Speaker 3: telling us about the buy of this team and I
10:16
Speaker 3: mentioned back then to you guys about one hundred percent
10:19
Speaker 3: participation in off season voluntary activities, So we just unheard
10:22
Speaker 3: of it in this league. I mean one hundred percent.
10:24
Speaker 3: Jonathan Ankins was the only one who wasn't there, and
10:27
Speaker 3: he never was there. He never did show up. He's
10:29
Speaker 3: basically retired. And that was the only veteran. I was
10:32
Speaker 3: the only guy under contract who didn't come in May
10:36
Speaker 3: and June to all the voluntary things and OTAs and
10:41
Speaker 3: mini camps and meetings and workouts in the weight room
10:44
Speaker 3: in May and June, when guys are usually on a
10:46
Speaker 3: beach who're making up reasons to not come and no
10:49
Speaker 3: lead back to night. In the league, that's just part
10:51
Speaker 3: of the deal. Well not in Seattle. And at that
10:53
Speaker 3: time is when mcconamsaid, a HT, what I'm trying to
10:56
Speaker 3: instill is actually sticking. And all the things about the
11:00
Speaker 3: blitzing and the disguising and changing positions at the snap
11:04
Speaker 3: and all of that only comes after the buy in
11:08
Speaker 3: and the buy in of everyone pulling together in a
11:11
Speaker 3: common goal. You knew a lot of things in life
11:14
Speaker 3: and a lot of walks of life. You've got that
11:16
Speaker 3: with a group of people, and the Seahawks had that
11:19
Speaker 3: in their sport and their profession better than anybody in
11:22
Speaker 3: the world, better than any football team in the world.
11:25
Speaker 3: I think last night, I think twenty games proved.
11:28
Speaker 2: That Greg bellis with us. Our Seahawks insider from the
11:31
Speaker 2: News Tribune. Complete coverage of the Seahawks Super Bowl win
11:34
Speaker 2: yesterday available at the Newstribune dot com. He stayed up
11:37
Speaker 2: till two o'clock in the morning last night, so you
11:39
Speaker 2: owe it to him to read every single word that
11:42
Speaker 2: he wrote, every single article that he pieced together, every
11:45
Speaker 2: single interview that he did, and he's joining us here
11:48
Speaker 2: this morning on Chuck and Buck for some nitty gritty
11:52
Speaker 2: information as to what he saw behind the scenes. You
11:56
Speaker 2: know what I mean. I love the Sam Darnold story.
11:59
Speaker 2: I've just the Sam Donald demeanor, I think my favorite
12:03
Speaker 2: part about it. And I don't really blame the media
12:05
Speaker 2: for bringing up the redemption story. I get that it's
12:09
Speaker 2: a story everywhere, but I love that he just deflects
12:13
Speaker 2: it like he's sick of it. Like Case, he doesn't
12:16
Speaker 2: view it that way. He kind of views it as
12:18
Speaker 2: a journey in life, and so yes, for everybody else
12:22
Speaker 2: out there, it looks like a redemption story. I love
12:25
Speaker 2: that Sam Donald has this air. Greg of I had
12:28
Speaker 2: some bumps along the way, but I kind of always
12:30
Speaker 2: expected to do this.
12:33
Speaker 3: He did, And you're exactly right. The redemption validation is
12:39
Speaker 3: you saw it here last week. That has been the
12:41
Speaker 3: same since they landed here eight days ago. That's all
12:45
Speaker 3: people keep asking after the game. That's all they were
12:47
Speaker 3: talking about. That's all they're talking about. It is locker.
12:51
Speaker 3: And like McDonald last I said, I said, you know what,
12:54
Speaker 3: that's what everyone else says. It's time to call him
12:57
Speaker 3: something else Besides vindicated and redeem And that ended up
13:01
Speaker 3: being the lead in the story I wrote as the
13:03
Speaker 3: News Tribune about midnight last night. It's up for the
13:06
Speaker 3: News Tribune dot com right now, I was my lead.
13:08
Speaker 3: You have vindicated, He's not redeemed. He's a Super Bowl
13:12
Speaker 3: champion whose talent is His accomplishments are now matching his talent. Look,
13:20
Speaker 3: he never won the Big One because he never was
13:22
Speaker 3: in the Big One because he played for teams that's stunk.
13:25
Speaker 3: You're not gonna get the third overall pick in the
13:28
Speaker 3: NFL draft, and you're not gonna go walking into a
13:30
Speaker 3: championship situation. You're gonna walk into a mess. And if
13:35
Speaker 3: the rest of the mess isn't cleaned up, it doesn't
13:37
Speaker 3: matter how good of a quarterback you are. Look at
13:39
Speaker 3: the history. John Hallway was on a terrible Denver Broncos team.
13:43
Speaker 3: Bucky sorry today he was when he first came into
13:46
Speaker 3: the league. Joe Montana didn't win as soon as he
13:49
Speaker 3: got to the forty nine stuck. It took Bill Walsh
13:52
Speaker 3: a while to clean that house. And that was Sam
13:55
Speaker 3: Daro with the Jets, and what the Jets do. They
13:57
Speaker 3: traded another stinky team. They traded him to the Panthers,
14:00
Speaker 3: who were a losing team. He went and lost for
14:03
Speaker 3: them eight nine and two years as a starter, and
14:07
Speaker 3: then he went to San Francisco's a backup, and then
14:09
Speaker 3: he went to the Vikings. Oh, fourteen and two. Yeah,
14:13
Speaker 3: he faltered at the end of the season, the whole
14:15
Speaker 3: team did. He went fourteen and two and through forty
14:18
Speaker 3: five hundred yards and thirty five touchdowns, and the Vikings said, eh,
14:22
Speaker 3: we don't need you, We'll take this JJ McCarthy, guy
14:24
Speaker 3: who's never played a snap in the league. That's been
14:27
Speaker 3: his career in a nutshell. So those people who say,
14:30
Speaker 3: would you failed at the Jets, you failed. Anyone in
14:34
Speaker 3: the world would have failed with the Jets and the Panthers,
14:36
Speaker 3: and that's why the Jets and the Panthers stunk. So
14:41
Speaker 3: the vindication and the redemption isn't so much as it
14:46
Speaker 3: is he got on a good team with the world's
14:49
Speaker 3: best defense and he won. And he's thirty one and
14:53
Speaker 3: six in the last two years. Thirty one and six.
14:57
Speaker 2: Pretty good.
14:59
Speaker 3: Yeah, about time to call him my Sam Donald winner.
15:02
Speaker 3: I think at this point, on top of it, every
15:04
Speaker 3: anything else see he's ever done this career.
15:06
Speaker 5: Yeah, obviously. I mean he did he did his part.
15:09
Speaker 5: I mean there was uh it was.
15:11
Speaker 3: He didn't have to do much. He just you know
15:13
Speaker 3: what it was, don't turn the ball over. Yeah, if
15:16
Speaker 3: he didn't turn the ball over, they're gonna win. But
15:18
Speaker 3: he hadn't turn the ball over. In five weeks, five games,
15:21
Speaker 3: they won them all. Take up to the Super Bowl.
15:23
Speaker 3: Their defense was so good that Sam Donald's job, don't
15:27
Speaker 3: turn the ball over. Kunth Walker's job, run it twenty
15:30
Speaker 3: eight thirty times, and that's how they won. That was
15:33
Speaker 3: it was simple Donald, don't turn it over. There was
15:36
Speaker 3: one play in the first half going left and right,
15:39
Speaker 3: was right underneath me in the press box in the
15:41
Speaker 3: red zone. He scrambled around and instead of throwing it anywhere,
15:45
Speaker 3: and people in the press wars going, what's he gonna do,
15:48
Speaker 3: he just chucked it into like a fourth row left
15:51
Speaker 3: sideline because he knew we'll take three points here. The
15:54
Speaker 3: Patriots aren't scoring tonight. I mean, that was his job
15:58
Speaker 3: and he did it expertly. That's started to interrupt, But
16:02
Speaker 3: darna was don't turn the ball over. He didn't turn
16:05
Speaker 3: the ball over. They won the Super Bowl.
16:06
Speaker 2: Well, he had a few throws.
16:08
Speaker 5: You know, like in tight windows early, like he was
16:10
Speaker 5: gonna let it rip and understand that if a mistake happens,
16:15
Speaker 5: my defense will probably pick me up. But then as
16:17
Speaker 5: it started, you attacked on a couple of field goals,
16:20
Speaker 5: and that you started recognizing that the Patriots weren't going anywhere.
16:23
Speaker 5: It felt like he stopped putting some the ball at risk.
16:27
Speaker 5: I mean, he really made a whole bunch more just
16:29
Speaker 5: sound safe decisions, even if it meant you had to
16:32
Speaker 5: turn around and punt the ball back to the Patriots.
16:35
Speaker 5: Was there a distinguished, concerted effort to do that. Did
16:40
Speaker 5: they come to him and say, hey, they're not going
16:41
Speaker 5: to score. We got six points, they're not going to
16:43
Speaker 5: get past that. Or we got nine points, they're not
16:45
Speaker 5: going to be able to overcome that. Be safe?
16:47
Speaker 3: Now? I think Donald did that himself, Mike, Mike McDonald
16:52
Speaker 3: talks a lot about game presenting itself, and you're right, Bucky,
16:56
Speaker 3: it became evident in about the first fifteen, well maybe
17:00
Speaker 3: the first two drives that the Patriots had, that they
17:04
Speaker 3: weren't driving the field to score at all. And I
17:07
Speaker 3: was sitting in the box thinking, as long as Donald
17:09
Speaker 3: doesn't turn over the Patriots might not score until next season.
17:13
Speaker 3: There was no chance that they were going to drive
17:15
Speaker 3: the field on them, and no, okay they did, but
17:17
Speaker 3: the game was nineteen nothing with thirteen minutes left before
17:21
Speaker 3: they finally did. They were hurry up mode and the
17:23
Speaker 3: Sea Arks were dropping off. They weren't pressing quite as much,
17:25
Speaker 3: although they started to re up the Blitzergains. I talked
17:28
Speaker 3: to add and Dirty outside the locker room. He was
17:31
Speaker 3: pretty happy, by the way, and he said, I said,
17:34
Speaker 3: well that everything you did work. He said, not in
17:37
Speaker 3: the fourth quarter. They were upset that how the fourth
17:40
Speaker 3: quarter was that they let off the gas mentally. But
17:43
Speaker 3: it's human nature that if you have nineteen nothing in
17:45
Speaker 3: the team has seventy yards and two three quarters, that
17:48
Speaker 3: you're going to think, well, this is done. And it was.
17:51
Speaker 3: But I think Bucky, I don't know that someone told
17:54
Speaker 3: him that. I think Donald's been around the block enough
17:57
Speaker 3: long enough to know as long as I don't turn
17:59
Speaker 3: the ball over, I'm going to be hoisting a Lombardi
18:01
Speaker 3: Trophy in a couple hours. And so he did. You're right,
18:04
Speaker 3: he did throttle down on. They were a couple of
18:07
Speaker 3: plays in the first half. Smith and Jigwa his first
18:09
Speaker 3: throat to Smith and Jigwa a game. He threw it
18:12
Speaker 3: before Smith and Jigwa even broke clear of the linebacker,
18:15
Speaker 3: and it could have easily been an interception, and he'd
18:19
Speaker 3: shut that down in a hurry. And I think Kubiak's
18:21
Speaker 3: play calling helped in that regard to twenty seven carries
18:24
Speaker 3: plus three or four catches for Kenneth. Walker told Darnold,
18:28
Speaker 3: we ain't risking anything. And when you keep getting outside
18:32
Speaker 3: zone run calls coming into your comin headset for three
18:34
Speaker 3: and a half quarters and time we get the hint
18:36
Speaker 3: that test the team wants you to do instead of
18:38
Speaker 3: risking the.
18:39
Speaker 2: Ball, well, rest up two weeks combine one month free agency.
18:46
Speaker 2: That's one of the things about covering a Super Bowl
18:49
Speaker 2: champion is you work longer than all the other beat writers.
18:53
Speaker 3: There were guys around the league, friends of mine, from
18:56
Speaker 3: Los Angeles to New York making fun of the US night.
18:58
Speaker 3: I'm the wait outside the arena so soon Indianapolis.
19:01
Speaker 2: Yeah, yes, I mean you even had the Kubiak story
19:06
Speaker 2: to cover last night after the game was over. I
19:09
Speaker 2: mean there was there's just no rest for Greg Bell
19:11
Speaker 2: and there wasn't.
19:13
Speaker 3: Sam Donald and Kubiak hugged in the locker room. They
19:15
Speaker 3: talked for a while and Donald looked at him and said,
19:19
Speaker 3: job well done. And we teased him about saying that,
19:22
Speaker 3: and he said, I didn't know what else to say,
19:24
Speaker 3: but that probably isn't the last time he's going to
19:27
Speaker 3: talk to Kubiak. But yeah, he's gone. Now the question
19:31
Speaker 3: becomes who he takes with him. Is it Andrew Gnoko
19:33
Speaker 3: the quarterbacks coach leaving? Is offensive line coach John Benton leaving?
19:37
Speaker 3: Those are two prime candidates to leave because they were
19:39
Speaker 3: both with Kubiak in New Orleans. I think the Seahawks
19:42
Speaker 3: are going to make a push to make Jenoko the
19:44
Speaker 3: next offensive coordinator so they can keep the continuity of
19:47
Speaker 3: that room between Jenoko and Sam Donald, and I would
19:52
Speaker 3: move Mount Rainier to try to get John Benton to
19:55
Speaker 3: stay for what he did to this team this year.
19:57
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, Greg, great stuff. I mean, we couldn't
19:59
Speaker 2: cover it all, but we do have all week. So
20:02
Speaker 2: get some rest, be safe lying home, and we'll talk
20:05
Speaker 2: to you real soon.
20:07
Speaker 3: Appreciate it. On my way to Kenneth Walker and Mike
20:10
Speaker 3: McDonald's press commerce downtown San Francisco at.
20:12
Speaker 2: Eight thirty this oh he's not in Disneyland already. What's
20:15
Speaker 2: going on there?
20:16
Speaker 3: Lie? Lie, Yeah, he's not easy.
20:19
Speaker 2: Walker's not either.
20:20
Speaker 3: He's at the Disneyland.
20:22
Speaker 2: All right, Greg, thanks man, appreciate.

22:19
Speaker 7: Chuck Buck Ashley, Oh my god. I cannot even start
22:25
Speaker 7: to explain how I feel. First, I want to give
22:27
Speaker 7: a shout out to my boy at three point fifty seven.
22:31
Speaker 6: Jim, You're the man.
22:32
Speaker 7: Love you brother. Hey, guys, I was watching NFL Network
22:36
Speaker 7: all day yesterday and the one thing that caught my
22:39
Speaker 7: eye was the scrolling deal at the bottom.
22:43
Speaker 2: They were doing those mock drafts.
22:45
Speaker 7: Yeah, and every single one of those mock drafts had
22:49
Speaker 7: the Seahawks picking thirty two.
22:53
Speaker 3: Hmm.
22:54
Speaker 6: They knew it.
22:55
Speaker 3: They knew it. Hey, and guess what.
22:58
Speaker 2: Guess what?
22:59
Speaker 8: What are super Bowl champions?
23:01
Speaker 9: People?
23:02
Speaker 2: Yeah? Congratulations total soak it up, man, soak it up.
23:10
Speaker 7: I'm soaking it up.
23:14
Speaker 2: Awesome. Yeah, number thirty two. Yeah, I'll be happy to
23:17
Speaker 2: pick last in the draft.
23:18
Speaker 5: That's always a fun thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I would guess.
23:22
Speaker 5: So you don't need it.
23:24
Speaker 2: I don't need a top ten. It's not back. I
23:26
Speaker 2: needed to drive number one. I guess we'll go ahead, Clint,
23:30
Speaker 2: have fun with that one. Let's go to Keith and Arlington.
23:33
Speaker 2: Good morning, Keith, Good morning. You're a super Bowl champion.
23:39
Speaker 9: Keith.
23:39
Speaker 2: We're great.
23:40
Speaker 3: Oh man, can you believe it?
23:42
Speaker 8: You know it's funny because I called the guys on
23:45
Speaker 8: moving the chains on.
23:46
Speaker 3: Serious XM Radio yesterday.
23:48
Speaker 8: Yeah, and I told them, I said, I've got that
23:52
Speaker 8: Super Bowl forty eight feelings. I think this is gonna
23:55
Speaker 8: be a beatdown. I don't think the AFC scenes a
23:58
Speaker 8: defense like this. They don't they just don't and lo
24:02
Speaker 8: and behold. I mean we held them to zero points
24:05
Speaker 8: through three quarters.
24:06
Speaker 2: Yeah, seventy eight yards seventy eight yards total yards. They
24:12
Speaker 2: had not been inside the forty yard line until Drake
24:15
Speaker 2: May had those back to back passes to Hollins with
24:18
Speaker 2: like thirteen minutes left in the fourth quarter. That's how
24:20
Speaker 2: dominant it was.
24:22
Speaker 8: It was, and that it was pretty much a Christmas
24:24
Speaker 8: gift as well. I mean, you can't expect a defense
24:27
Speaker 8: to I mean I was really I really wanted that
24:30
Speaker 8: shut out. At the end of the third quarter, I'm like, okay,
24:33
Speaker 8: I want this shutout. Yeah, it'll be the first time ever. Yeah,
24:37
Speaker 8: you know, it's still it was still dominant. It was
24:40
Speaker 8: just a dominant performance.
24:41
Speaker 2: Oh well, out question. It was dominant. So well enjoy it, Keith,
24:46
Speaker 2: your super Bowl champ.
24:48
Speaker 6: That's right there.
24:52
Speaker 2: You go, Keith in Arlington. Yeah, yes, yeah. I mean
24:56
Speaker 2: I know that the final statistics aren't going to speak
24:59
Speaker 2: to just how dominant that was. But through three quarters,
25:02
Speaker 2: I mean, the Patriots didn't have one single answer for
25:05
Speaker 2: what Mike McDonald threw with them. And I said this
25:07
Speaker 2: last week. I mean we've now had three examples of
25:11
Speaker 2: Mike McDonald having more than a week to prepare for
25:14
Speaker 2: an opponent, and those results were the Commanders. Remember how
25:19
Speaker 2: dominant that was forty nine ers forty one to six,
25:23
Speaker 2: and then that thing last night. I mean, this is
25:26
Speaker 2: how good this guy is. I mean, the word's gonna
25:28
Speaker 2: get out. You don't want to face Mike McDonald with
25:30
Speaker 2: two weeks to prepare for you, period.
25:33
Speaker 5: Well, yeah, I mean he knows what he's doing. I mean,
25:35
Speaker 5: even when he's going on normal amount of preparation, it
25:39
Speaker 5: doesn't It rarely feels like his defense isn't prepared, right,
25:43
Speaker 5: I mean, whatever his catchphrases are, he gets them ready.
25:47
Speaker 5: They have a plan, and then he sticks to that
25:50
Speaker 5: plan if you get him extra time. Yeah, it feels
25:53
Speaker 5: like I mean, Rabel did a good job of getting
25:56
Speaker 5: his defense ready to It wasn't like it was easy
25:59
Speaker 5: smooth sailing for the Seahawks offense. And yeah, there were
26:01
Speaker 5: some missed opportunities, but I think a lot of that.
26:04
Speaker 5: I usually tend to just give credit to the you know,
26:06
Speaker 5: instead of being like, well Sam missed that long bomb
26:09
Speaker 5: to Jackson Smith and Jig, but that would have been
26:11
Speaker 5: a touchdown. Well, he didn't have guys in his face.
26:13
Speaker 5: So give credit where credit is due, and I don't
26:15
Speaker 5: know if anybody deserves more credit than Mike McDonald getting
26:18
Speaker 5: that team defense ready.
26:19
Speaker 2: All right, we're taking your calls this morning. Want to
26:21
Speaker 2: hear from you here as the Seahawks are Super Bowl champions,
26:25
Speaker 2: and this is a little dangerous. We're going to New Hampshire.
26:28
Speaker 2: That's kind of Patriot territory. Let's see if if Mike
26:32
Speaker 2: has held onto his Seahawks fandom living in New Hampshire. Hey, Mike,
26:37
Speaker 2: how are you great?
26:38
Speaker 9: Hope you're doing well.
26:39
Speaker 2: We're doing great. How are you feeling this morning?
26:43
Speaker 9: Fantastic?
26:44
Speaker 2: Good?
26:44
Speaker 9: I am not a Patriot fan, good, but I am.
26:50
Speaker 9: I soon Remember the Super Bowl where Malcolm Butler accepted
26:55
Speaker 9: that pass? I soon so this day. I don't know
26:58
Speaker 9: why Pete Carol called called that play, but anyway, I
27:03
Speaker 9: was first of all, congratulations to the Seahawks. I think
27:09
Speaker 9: they they played a great game. Fantastic game. Bill Belichick
27:16
Speaker 9: wrote the forward to a book that I recently read
27:19
Speaker 9: called grid Iron Genius, which was written by Michael Lombardi,
27:23
Speaker 9: and in the forward, Belichick says that many times reporters
27:30
Speaker 9: ask them, what do you look for in a rookie.
27:31
Speaker 9: You look for the guy that runs the fastest, who
27:34
Speaker 9: has the most receptions, and he says, no, I don't
27:37
Speaker 9: look for any of that. They so very so they
27:40
Speaker 9: got upside with them. Said so what do you look for?
27:42
Speaker 9: And this is what he said. He said, I look
27:46
Speaker 9: for one element mental toughness. And I think that's what
27:50
Speaker 9: the defense of the Seahawks displayed last night, and that's
27:55
Speaker 9: why they deserve to win. Congratulations, God bless you, and
27:59
Speaker 9: I'll listen what you're out to say.
28:01
Speaker 2: Thank you, Mike, appreciate it. There is a really interesting conversation,
28:06
Speaker 2: on a lengthy one to have about John Schneider the
28:10
Speaker 2: last three years and then the last two years with
28:12
Speaker 2: Mike McDonald and the type of players that they're choosing
28:16
Speaker 2: versus the type of players that Vrabel's choosing. I don't
28:19
Speaker 2: have time to get into it today, but I can't
28:21
Speaker 2: wait to have that conversation because this is the aspect
28:24
Speaker 2: of sports that fascinates me the most. And right now,
28:27
Speaker 2: John Schneider and Mike McDonald, the team is just running
28:30
Speaker 2: circles around people in the National Football League. But we'll
28:34
Speaker 2: save that conversation for another day. I will say this,
28:37
Speaker 2: I watched two different pregame shows yesterday and I flipped
28:40
Speaker 2: from one to the other at one point in the pregame,
28:43
Speaker 2: and I had to watch two different features on Malcolm
28:46
Speaker 2: Butler's intersections. And then they had him ring the damn
28:49
Speaker 2: bell at the beginning of the game. And then they
28:51
Speaker 2: put a Patriot and then two forty nine ers on
28:54
Speaker 2: the set doing the pregame, Shanahan and Warner, And every
28:58
Speaker 2: time Shannann and Warner said any thing, they would always
29:00
Speaker 2: preface it with I don't want to compliment them. How
29:03
Speaker 2: about not having guys on there that have to preface
29:06
Speaker 2: every one of their statements with that statement. All right,
29:09
Speaker 2: let's go to Daryl in Newcastle. Come on to Daryl,
29:13
Speaker 2: go hawks has.
29:15
Speaker 6: It's a great day. I gotta tell you, I love
29:18
Speaker 6: that we're always being slept on. But let me just
29:21
Speaker 6: cut to the chase. When we acquired Sam Donald on
29:25
Speaker 6: one of those guys, I was like, why what are
29:27
Speaker 6: we doing? John Snyder is a genius. And let me
29:33
Speaker 6: just say this, I am so proud of Darnald Man
29:36
Speaker 6: the way he was so mobile with his line. Yeah,
29:40
Speaker 6: he missed some passes, but man, they were getting through
29:43
Speaker 6: our offensive lineman and he was just he was moving.
29:47
Speaker 6: I've never seen him that elusive. I'm really proud. I
29:51
Speaker 6: think we've got such a bright future.
29:53
Speaker 3: Go Hawks, Darryl.
29:55
Speaker 2: When did you start believing in Sam?
29:58
Speaker 6: I would have to say probably in Game eight. And
30:03
Speaker 6: the only reason why I did is because I was
30:07
Speaker 6: seeing how much the team really was behind him, and
30:10
Speaker 6: I could also tell two from his harshest. He just
30:13
Speaker 6: seemed very genuine. And I also got to hear him
30:16
Speaker 6: speak when he got interviewed with Marshawn Lynch and oh
30:21
Speaker 6: my god, they've got their own podcast. But when I
30:24
Speaker 6: got to hear him speak and just kind of what
30:26
Speaker 6: he was talking about, I mean, the guy is just
30:29
Speaker 6: really throw And then you gotta think he's had so
30:32
Speaker 6: many different offensive coordinators and sometimes this is a position
30:36
Speaker 6: that you just have to It takes time. It's not
30:40
Speaker 6: an instant move like this is. But I really feel
30:44
Speaker 6: like this is a formula. Even when Mike Donald came on,
30:47
Speaker 6: I was offended when he wanted all of those Legion
30:51
Speaker 6: of Boom players were moved off the side of looming fields,
30:53
Speaker 6: but I understood he had to shape everything and it
30:58
Speaker 6: just it just always works. We always get the guys
31:01
Speaker 6: that are low key and like they said that mental
31:05
Speaker 6: great toughness. Don't let the kid out the bag and
31:07
Speaker 6: let other teams start to want to get that too.
31:10
Speaker 6: But they have a drafting formula that just works.
31:14
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's it.
31:15
Speaker 6: I've taken a lot of time, but man, this is
31:17
Speaker 6: a great day.
31:18
Speaker 2: Man, congratulations.
31:21
Speaker 6: I was in tears anyway, Thanks so much for taking
31:25
Speaker 6: my car.
31:27
Speaker 2: All right, go Oks, Daryl waking up this morning a
31:31
Speaker 2: champion here today in Newcastle. Let's go to David in Renton.
31:35
Speaker 2: Good morning, David, good morning. How you feeling, go Oks?
31:40
Speaker 2: How you feeling?
31:41
Speaker 10: Oh man, I feel so great.
31:43
Speaker 2: What a great year, what a great team.
31:46
Speaker 10: These guys love each other, you know, culture kind of corny,
31:50
Speaker 10: but they do.
31:50
Speaker 3: They play for each other.
31:52
Speaker 2: So proud of the team.
31:54
Speaker 10: My dad passed away in June.
31:57
Speaker 2: He would have loved to see this. He was alive for.
31:59
Speaker 10: The first one that was emotional, but this one, really
32:02
Speaker 10: I feel like we're onto something here. Oh yeah, I
32:04
Speaker 10: think we could be the start of a great, great dynasty.
32:07
Speaker 10: Hopefully don't want to jinx it, but.
32:09
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, David, thank you for the call. We appreciate it.
32:12
Speaker 2: Happy for you, happy for all the Seahawk fans out there,
32:16
Speaker 2: and look, I brought this conversation up last week and
32:21
Speaker 2: Greg made the comment of, like you have to. I mean,
32:24
Speaker 2: it's so hard to win one. It's so much harder
32:26
Speaker 2: to win back to back. It's so much harder even
32:29
Speaker 2: than that, to go beyond too. I don't. I was not,
32:33
Speaker 2: in my attempts at discussing this, trying to put the
32:37
Speaker 2: cart before the horse and trying to make this team
32:39
Speaker 2: a dynasty before they'd even won their first Super Bowl.
32:42
Speaker 2: Simply the conversation I thought that was worth having is
32:46
Speaker 2: how do you feel about this team compared to the
32:49
Speaker 2: twenty thirteen team as they were getting ready for Super
32:52
Speaker 2: Bowl Sunday? And I think that there are a lot
32:55
Speaker 2: of things about that twenty thirteen team that were superior
32:58
Speaker 2: to this one, and there are a lot of things
33:00
Speaker 2: about this team that's superior to that one. But I
33:03
Speaker 2: do believe that the difference between the two and the
33:06
Speaker 2: reason why I think this team has the chance to
33:08
Speaker 2: do this again and maybe beyond a couple of times,
33:13
Speaker 2: is the fabric of this team that is one of
33:16
Speaker 2: the tightest knit NFL teams you will ever see in
33:20
Speaker 2: your entire life, where the Seahawks were already fighting over
33:24
Speaker 2: the pieces of the pie before they'd even won the
33:27
Speaker 2: first championship. They'd already sort of divided the locker room
33:32
Speaker 2: before they even won in twenty thirteen. And so that's
33:35
Speaker 2: why I think this team might have a chance to
33:37
Speaker 2: actually pull this thing off.
33:39
Speaker 5: Well, it's not an easy task to do, but yeah,
33:42
Speaker 5: I would have to think that they're probably the favorites
33:45
Speaker 5: going into it right now. If you were wanting to
33:47
Speaker 5: make a bet on who's gonna win the Super Bowl
33:49
Speaker 5: next year, I don't know why you wouldn't think it
33:51
Speaker 5: would be the Seahawks. Now we got an offseason to go,
33:54
Speaker 5: teams are going to improve. But I think that for
33:57
Speaker 5: the most part, with the exception like Ken Talker, you
34:00
Speaker 5: don't know what's going to happen there, right He's probably
34:03
Speaker 5: going to test the free agent waters and so what
34:05
Speaker 5: are you going to have there? And he just ended
34:07
Speaker 5: up being the MVP, even though it probably was the
34:10
Speaker 5: entire defense that was the most valuable part of the team.
34:14
Speaker 2: I think this just a.
34:15
Speaker 5: Lot that goes into a lot of little things go
34:18
Speaker 5: into becoming a world champion. And I think that right now,
34:22
Speaker 5: from John Schneider to you know, Mike McDonald to Sam Donald,
34:27
Speaker 5: to everybody on that roster, they just did a lot
34:29
Speaker 5: of the things correct.
34:30
Speaker 2: And I'm with you.
34:31
Speaker 5: I think that the philosophy, the blueprint that Mike McDonald
34:36
Speaker 5: has put forth is one that does seem sustainable. You know,
34:41
Speaker 5: whether or not, you know, egos get too big, that's
34:44
Speaker 5: something that you can't necessarily control. But if you get
34:46
Speaker 5: everybody roll in the same direction, I don't see any
34:49
Speaker 5: reason why they can't run the thing back.
34:50
Speaker 2: All right here, Melan's going to join us at eight o'clock.
34:53
Speaker 2: They have announced that the parade is going to take
34:55
Speaker 2: place on Wednesday here in Seattle, and we have to
34:59
Speaker 2: hear from we always do every Monday, from the guy
35:02
Speaker 2: I think is most responsible for this thing last night.
35:06
Speaker 2: That's right, I'm obar there for a Mike McDonald's segment.
35:11
Speaker 2: Next on Chuck and Buck, ken Walker wins the Super Bowl.
35:15
Speaker 2: MVP keeps a ron can he keeps uh and the
35:25
Speaker 2: Seahawks are your super Bowl champs. Just in case you
35:29
Speaker 2: forgot Ooker, forget what of so good place? All? No, no, no,
35:35
Speaker 2: you can't forget that.
35:36
Speaker 5: I can't forget that. I can't forget that you're a champion. Now,
35:40
Speaker 5: that's pretty impressive, pretty impressive stuff.
35:43
Speaker 2: Mike McDonald, Who man, I mean, what of all the
35:47
Speaker 2: things that John Schneider's done in the last three years
35:50
Speaker 2: to prepare for this moment? This was the move hiring
35:54
Speaker 2: Mike McDonald as head coach, and uh, and this guy
35:58
Speaker 2: I think is really setting the foundation and obviously for
36:01
Speaker 2: something special. You won the Super Bowl last night, but
36:04
Speaker 2: who knows so what this organization is going to be
36:06
Speaker 2: able to achieve with him at the helm. And yet
36:10
Speaker 2: he's always there to remind you there are others that
36:14
Speaker 2: have helped pave the way.
36:15
Speaker 11: Yeah, we would not be having this press commas right
36:18
Speaker 11: now if Leslie wasn't a Seahawk. He was the first
36:21
Speaker 11: person I called when we got the job, and hopefully
36:26
Speaker 11: I made it very clear to him that we needed him.
36:28
Speaker 11: And he's he's just a great compliment to my skill set,
36:35
Speaker 11: to my personality. He's such a great connector with the players,
36:38
Speaker 11: such a great communicator. He calls our bluff and we're
36:42
Speaker 11: full of crap on defense and we do stupid stuff
36:44
Speaker 11: and game planning which happens probably too much that we
36:47
Speaker 11: more than we want. But uh, he's been he's been
36:51
Speaker 11: he's been tremendous.
36:52
Speaker 2: First guy he called, how about that? Yeah, it's impressive. Yeah,
36:55
Speaker 2: I mean it's not coach Bucky. Leslie Fraser. Well, I
36:58
Speaker 2: had actually called him before he got hard.
37:01
Speaker 5: I talked to Schneider about him, and then I talked
37:05
Speaker 5: to him about Schneider, and I thought it would be
37:07
Speaker 5: a match made in heaven. I didn't want you involved
37:11
Speaker 5: in the daily yeah, the data exactly.
37:14
Speaker 2: And then when and then he said, and when you
37:16
Speaker 2: hire him, you should have him call Leslie Fraser.
37:19
Speaker 5: Yes, yeah, yes, yeah, So I mean it's a it
37:23
Speaker 5: makes it makes sense. I mean, if that's what I think,
37:27
Speaker 5: I respect, well, I shouldn't I respect most I don't
37:30
Speaker 5: know the guy that well, so I don't know. But
37:32
Speaker 5: out of the stuff that I do. To be a
37:34
Speaker 5: young head coach, you have to have confidence. You have
37:37
Speaker 5: to believe in what it is you can bring to
37:39
Speaker 5: the table. But you also, yes, you have to believe,
37:44
Speaker 5: you have to be able to do that. But I
37:45
Speaker 5: do think that understanding what you don't know is probably
37:50
Speaker 5: a strength that very few confident young people have. I
37:53
Speaker 5: think that you and so to go call someone like
37:56
Speaker 5: Leslie Fraser and say, hey, man, there's gonna be a
37:59
Speaker 5: lot of stuff that I'm gonna need my BS called on,
38:02
Speaker 5: or there's gonna be some information that you have because
38:04
Speaker 5: of your experience that I don't have. Would you come
38:08
Speaker 5: on and basically take me under your wing, even though
38:11
Speaker 5: I'm the head coach. I think that that's commendable, to
38:14
Speaker 5: say the least, and a lot of people can learn
38:15
Speaker 5: from that.
38:16
Speaker 6: Hi.
38:16
Speaker 2: He also talked about his quarterback last night, Sam Darnold.
38:20
Speaker 11: You know, I was just spending more time with Sam
38:23
Speaker 11: on all these interviews, Like Sam doesn't care about the obstacle,
38:26
Speaker 11: Like everyone's made a narrative of this guy of like
38:31
Speaker 11: everyone is. They have tried to put a story in
38:35
Speaker 11: a label on who he is as a person, who
38:38
Speaker 11: he as a quarterback. He does not care. Okay, he
38:41
Speaker 11: just is the same guy every a.
38:43
Speaker 2: Since he shows up.
38:44
Speaker 11: He's so steadfast, he's a great teammate, the teammates, his
38:48
Speaker 11: teammates love him, always done, since he's walked in the door.
38:51
Speaker 11: Has just been a tremendous player on our football team
38:55
Speaker 11: and a tremendous leader who is the same guy every day.
38:58
Speaker 11: And that's who he is, and that's how we need
38:59
Speaker 11: to talk about it.
39:01
Speaker 2: Well, We've got a lot to discuss with our QB
39:03
Speaker 2: one and also Mike Holmgren as well at nine o'clock,
39:07
Speaker 2: so we better light this firecracker. It's the most important
39:10
Speaker 2: Monday morning quarterback of all time, and it comes your
39:13
Speaker 2: way next. On Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM
