Speaker 3: the end zone. A ten yard touchdown reception for Bumpus,
0:26
Speaker 3: and the kid out of Washington State has found himself
0:29
Speaker 3: a place.
0:30
Speaker 4: On this team.
0:31
Speaker 1: Now here's your host, Nasa Jovie.
0:34
Speaker 4: Welcome into another edition of Hawk Talk.
0:36
Speaker 5: The Seahawk getting ready to take on the Carolina Panthers
0:39
Speaker 5: at Lumenfield this Sunday. Hawk's coming off a big win
0:42
Speaker 5: over the Detroit Lions, making the record one in one.
0:46
Speaker 5: But before we jump into those Panthers, want to give
0:48
Speaker 5: you aick a little update from head coach Pete Carroll.
0:50
Speaker 5: Little injury updates just fresh off the podium. Good news
0:53
Speaker 5: on most fronts Riek wooland unfortunately, though it's pretty sore,
0:56
Speaker 5: he's not gonna practice today and it's gonna be tough recovery,
1:00
Speaker 5: crazy recovery for him to make it back on Sunday,
1:03
Speaker 5: But coach said there will be no IR consideration, so
1:06
Speaker 5: that's good. Whatever he's dealing with, he should be able
1:08
Speaker 5: to come back pretty soon. Then you got boy A
1:10
Speaker 5: Mafe and Devin Bush both should be back and ready
1:14
Speaker 5: to go on Sunday, which is a good sign.
1:16
Speaker 4: And DK Metcalf is also okay.
1:18
Speaker 5: I know he banged up on Sunday on that catch
1:21
Speaker 5: right by the goal on so he should be good
1:23
Speaker 5: to go on Sunday. And the one really unfortunate news
1:25
Speaker 5: today is Mike Morris is going to IR needs shoulder surgery.
1:28
Speaker 5: He's gonna be done for this season, which is a
1:30
Speaker 5: tough pill to swallow.
1:31
Speaker 4: Bump.
1:32
Speaker 5: We were just talking to him on our show on
1:33
Speaker 5: Hawks Live, and it's sad to see that kid going IR.
1:37
Speaker 6: Yeah, man, he was feeling good about his game, about
1:39
Speaker 6: his role on this team.
1:41
Speaker 7: That's the business man you never really know.
1:44
Speaker 6: That's why you have backups and hope he gets healthy,
1:47
Speaker 6: but yeah, sad, sad to see.
1:49
Speaker 5: And obviously we're still waiting to see on the tackles.
1:51
Speaker 5: But Abe lucas we know, is gonna be on IR
1:54
Speaker 5: for four weeks, so we'll see about Cross, but could
1:58
Speaker 5: be worse news. Obviously happy to hear that break one
2:01
Speaker 5: is not seriously hurt and that DK and Boffe and
2:04
Speaker 5: Bush should be back. So let's waste no more time.
2:06
Speaker 5: Let's get into who we're playing, The Carolina Panthers.
2:13
Speaker 4: What's untap?
2:14
Speaker 5: Carolina Panthers ozh in two last place in the NFC
2:18
Speaker 5: South Bump. They lost twenty four to ten in Atlanta
2:20
Speaker 5: Falcons and lost this past Monday night twenty to seventeen
2:24
Speaker 5: to of the New Orleans Saints, and it's it's been
2:26
Speaker 5: a slow start for the Bryce Young era Bump. Two
2:30
Speaker 5: divisional games to start the season, Panthers have only scored
2:33
Speaker 5: two touchdowns in a total of twenty seven points.
2:37
Speaker 4: Bump. What did you see from the Panthers in the
2:39
Speaker 4: Saints on Monday night?
2:41
Speaker 2: Ah?
2:41
Speaker 6: Man, it was. It was a slow start. It was
2:43
Speaker 6: a sloppy game, and at halftime it was six to three.
2:46
Speaker 6: The Saints had the lead, but in the first half, yeah,
2:48
Speaker 6: six point punts, had three field goals and two turnovers.
2:52
Speaker 6: Not looking good for both sides of the ball. After
2:55
Speaker 6: the Panthers tied the game at six. The Saints put
2:57
Speaker 6: together their best drive of the game. They went ten
3:00
Speaker 6: play seventy five yards, paying off with a two yard
3:02
Speaker 6: touchdown by Tony Jones Junior, making the score thirteen to six.
3:06
Speaker 6: That was set up by one yard one hand catch
3:09
Speaker 6: by be talented Chris Olave.
3:11
Speaker 4: Man.
3:11
Speaker 6: This guy look is good. I don't think he gets
3:13
Speaker 6: enough attention out here out West. I think Alave is
3:15
Speaker 6: a good ballplayer.
3:17
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, he's really good. I mean, I would hate
3:20
Speaker 4: to say this.
3:20
Speaker 5: I don't even want to mention mention my former inter
3:22
Speaker 5: in Nishan Kandaputty, who is a big Ohio State guy.
3:26
Speaker 5: And no, man, there they are receiver you right now right,
3:29
Speaker 5: I mean obviously Jackson Smith and Jigba Olave, Harris Marvin
3:34
Speaker 5: Harrison's kid. I mean it's they're They're legit. And Olave
3:37
Speaker 5: is a good player.
3:38
Speaker 7: Yeah, man, Alave is dope.
3:40
Speaker 6: I love to see him do his thing, and I
3:43
Speaker 6: like his let's him speak after the game, and it's
3:46
Speaker 6: just the way he handles himself and all that is
3:47
Speaker 6: good to go too. So then after that two drives later,
3:50
Speaker 6: the Panthers would have to settle for field go after
3:52
Speaker 6: standing or stalling out on the red zone, making make
3:55
Speaker 6: it a four point game. Then the Saints would answer
3:57
Speaker 6: on in sew and drive with a sixth place seventy
3:59
Speaker 6: nine drive in two minutes any with a Tory Jones
4:03
Speaker 6: touchdown thanks to a forty five yard completion and too
4:05
Speaker 6: rashid shot heed from Derek Carr. And that catch was nice.
4:08
Speaker 7: On the sideline hands. It was beautiful.
4:11
Speaker 2: Man.
4:11
Speaker 7: It looks natural out there.
4:13
Speaker 4: Yeah.
4:14
Speaker 5: Man, uh, you know, he's a good player, first of all.
4:18
Speaker 5: And Derek Carr kind of made a slow start in
4:21
Speaker 5: New Orleans. I'm not really sure what to see. I
4:22
Speaker 5: think that's a good move for them overall. They've started
4:25
Speaker 5: really slow this year. But there were some really good
4:27
Speaker 5: plays by him. And then when you got when you
4:29
Speaker 5: get into Bryce Young, Bump. He finally finally gets them
4:32
Speaker 5: into the end zone with eleven plays seventy five yard drive,
4:35
Speaker 5: connecting with former Vikings receiver Adam Thielen for a three
4:39
Speaker 5: yard touchdown. I forgot he was there, Bump. I'm not
4:41
Speaker 5: gonna lie too. I did too, I too, I see
4:44
Speaker 5: you know on Mond and them, I'm like, man, and
4:45
Speaker 5: then I forget he's been in the league for take
4:47
Speaker 5: a decade, mainly for ten years, and we'll see about
4:51
Speaker 5: how this didn't ends up in Carolina. But yeah, he
4:53
Speaker 5: did that, and then he caught the two point conversion
4:55
Speaker 5: made a twenty seventeen game with one sixteen left in
4:57
Speaker 5: the fourth quarter. The Saints, however, would recover or the
5:00
Speaker 5: on site kick and steal the game up with a
5:01
Speaker 5: couple of knees. Bryce Don't finished the game twenty two
5:04
Speaker 5: of thirty three, one hundred and fifty three yards, one touchdown,
5:07
Speaker 5: lost the fumble, and was sacked four times. Miles Sanders
5:11
Speaker 5: held the forty three yards and fourteen carries in thieland
5:14
Speaker 5: who were just talking about, led them and receiving with
5:17
Speaker 5: fifty four yards on seven receptions.
5:19
Speaker 4: Bump.
5:20
Speaker 5: This offense, I mean, I'll be straight, has not been
5:23
Speaker 5: good to start the year. It's been kind of a
5:25
Speaker 5: struggle to watch, which could be good news for the Seahawks.
5:28
Speaker 4: Obviously, you don't take them lightly.
5:30
Speaker 5: They came into looping field and won last year, bump,
5:32
Speaker 5: but kind of a rough go for them offensively.
5:35
Speaker 7: Yeah, it was a rough goal.
5:37
Speaker 6: And there was a play where Bryce Young lined up
5:40
Speaker 6: over the guard to receive a snap and Miles Sanders
5:42
Speaker 6: had to get me a little nudge, like, nah, rookie,
5:45
Speaker 6: you're in the wrong spot. That is the epitome of
5:48
Speaker 6: what this offense has been so far. But he's young,
5:50
Speaker 6: you know, he is a young quarterback in I don't
5:52
Speaker 6: expect young quarterbacks to do much.
5:55
Speaker 7: So I think we're gonna talk about it.
5:57
Speaker 6: That's why when I hear that he ain't practicing and
5:59
Speaker 6: we might getting Andy Dahl, and I'm like, oh, dang,
6:02
Speaker 6: give me the rookie.
6:04
Speaker 7: Give me the rookie instead.
6:06
Speaker 4: Yeah, man, I mean, gosh, I don't know.
6:08
Speaker 5: We've had a couple of quarterbacks, random ones come in
6:11
Speaker 5: here and backups beat the Seahawks over the US a
6:12
Speaker 5: couple of years whether it was Colt McCoy, yeah, you know,
6:15
Speaker 5: a couple of years ago it was by my blake,
6:17
Speaker 5: guy named Huntley from Arizona, so from LA.
6:21
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I know. So we got some wounds up here,
6:24
Speaker 4: bump man. Yeah, give me the rookie please.
6:26
Speaker 7: Yes.
6:27
Speaker 5: The other thing about then they lost Shaq Thompson, former
6:30
Speaker 5: UB standout. He's done for the year, so that's a
6:32
Speaker 5: bummer for them. He's definitely a big guy in that
6:34
Speaker 5: locker room, A veteran leader, and then they already lost
6:37
Speaker 5: first round pick J. C. Horn to a hamstring injury
6:39
Speaker 5: that landed him on ir Horns only played eighteen of
6:42
Speaker 5: the possible thirty four games in his career since being
6:45
Speaker 5: selected eighth overall.
6:46
Speaker 4: So they're a little dinged up bump.
6:48
Speaker 5: When we look at this head to head comparison, you know, offensively,
6:53
Speaker 5: the Seahawks made a jump. Obviously, when you have a
6:55
Speaker 5: rough Week one game, it's not gonna look great, but
6:57
Speaker 5: they did make a jump through up to twenty fifth
6:59
Speaker 5: in total offense, twenty six in the rushing offense with
7:02
Speaker 5: eighty three yards a game, seventeenth in pass offense, and
7:06
Speaker 5: then thirteenth in points per game at twenty five points.
7:10
Speaker 5: And then on the flip side of comparison to the Panthers,
7:12
Speaker 5: they have one of the worst offenses in the league.
7:14
Speaker 5: According to the statistics, again it's only been two weeks.
7:17
Speaker 5: They are twenty eighth in total offense two hundred and
7:20
Speaker 5: six yards a game. They do run the rock okay,
7:22
Speaker 5: one hundred twenty seven yards game. That gets them ninth.
7:25
Speaker 5: Pass offense, they are thirty two bump. How many teams
7:28
Speaker 5: are in the NFL.
7:29
Speaker 7: It's about thirty two. Thanks.
7:31
Speaker 5: Yeah, So they're doing at the slowest clip at one
7:33
Speaker 5: hundred and thirty three yards a game and then points
7:35
Speaker 5: per game thirteen and a half that is tied for thirtieth.
7:38
Speaker 5: So on paper, the Panthers really struggle. We kind of
7:42
Speaker 5: alluded to it. They got some good players, but they're
7:44
Speaker 5: young and they're gonna struggle to score points. And I
7:46
Speaker 5: really hope the Seahawks can kind of keep that trend
7:48
Speaker 5: going because they're gonna need to, especially with the rookie
7:51
Speaker 5: quarterback coming into a tough environment.
7:53
Speaker 6: Yeah, the Pantis can run the rock, you know, but
7:55
Speaker 6: the Hawks have been good against the run this year,
7:57
Speaker 6: so we'll see how that works out. Ain't bad though,
8:01
Speaker 6: only giving up eighty one yards a game that's eighth
8:03
Speaker 6: in the NFL. Their pass defense is really good, only
8:06
Speaker 6: giving about a buck fifty game that's fourth in the NFL.
8:08
Speaker 7: And rush defense, we'll see.
8:10
Speaker 6: That's why I really think that the Hawks can get
8:12
Speaker 6: going this week with the run, because the Panthers have
8:14
Speaker 6: given up one hundred and thirty two yards per game
8:17
Speaker 6: that is twenty fifth in the NFL. Time of possession,
8:20
Speaker 6: They possessed the ball about thirty minutes a game, they've
8:22
Speaker 6: been sacked six times to our three. I like that
8:25
Speaker 6: ratio there, and they both have one interception, so it.
8:30
Speaker 7: It's even in some areas as off in other areas.
8:33
Speaker 6: But as you and I know, we do this podcast
8:34
Speaker 6: every single year, around week four five, you know, you
8:37
Speaker 6: start getting real numbers on teams and what they can do.
8:40
Speaker 6: But yeah, you got a struggling rookie quarterback with a
8:43
Speaker 6: good run game.
8:44
Speaker 7: Let's see how the Hawks handle it.
8:46
Speaker 5: Yeah, definitely on paper, it's a game. One of those
8:49
Speaker 5: the difference a week can make. Now we're all of
8:51
Speaker 5: a sudden, if the Seahawks lost last week, most people
8:53
Speaker 5: be feeling a lot differently. But looking at this Panthers
8:55
Speaker 5: team on paper definitely looks like a matchup the Seahawks
8:58
Speaker 5: can win. But that's why they play the games, unfortunately.
9:02
Speaker 5: That's a good segue.
9:03
Speaker 4: Into knowing the history, no your history.
9:07
Speaker 5: The Seahawks lead the all time series against the Panthers
9:10
Speaker 5: ten to five. They're eight and four in the regular
9:12
Speaker 5: season and two and one in the postseason. And these
9:14
Speaker 5: teams aren't in the same division, but they've kind of
9:16
Speaker 5: developed a little rivalry because they play each other so
9:18
Speaker 5: often since twenty twelve. The Seahawks have played the Panthers
9:21
Speaker 5: ten times. Unfortunately, yeah man, and that includes last year. Unfortunately,
9:26
Speaker 5: the Seahawks dropped a rough one, losing thirty to twenty
9:29
Speaker 5: four at home last December. For everything good that happened
9:32
Speaker 5: last season, this was that tough stretch bump. This is
9:34
Speaker 5: where the Seahawks lost I believe five or six games,
9:38
Speaker 5: and several of them at home. And this was rough
9:41
Speaker 5: from the jump. Gino and Smith was intercepted on the
9:43
Speaker 5: seahawks first play from scrimmage. Panthers will scored the next play.
9:47
Speaker 5: Then you add a punt, snap your fingers. Before you
9:49
Speaker 5: know what, the Seahawks are down seventeen to zero. They
9:51
Speaker 5: would make things interesting.
9:53
Speaker 4: They trail. You bring it to twenty fourteen game at
9:56
Speaker 4: the half.
9:57
Speaker 5: After a field goal to start the third quarter, you're
9:59
Speaker 5: thinking it's going to be okay. But then the Seahawks
10:01
Speaker 5: will punt on their next three drives and the Panthers
10:03
Speaker 5: would take advantage with two drives seventy plus yards and
10:05
Speaker 5: two touchdowns.
10:07
Speaker 4: The Seahawks were.
10:07
Speaker 5: Score late, but it didn't really matter. And I mentioned
10:10
Speaker 5: earlier about those backup quarterbacks kind of causing problems for
10:13
Speaker 5: the Hawks over the year, Sam Darnold, he didn't really hurt.
10:17
Speaker 4: The Seahawks, but he was.
10:19
Speaker 5: He was there to hand the ball off to What
10:21
Speaker 5: really hurt the Seahawks and was the Panthers run game
10:23
Speaker 5: two hundred and twenty three yards on forty six carries.
10:26
Speaker 5: Obviously not what the Seahawks are looking for, and you
10:29
Speaker 5: alluded to it earlier. The Seahawks are stopping the run
10:32
Speaker 5: and one of the best in the league at doing that.
10:33
Speaker 5: So I'm hoping that it doesn't feel like last year bump,
10:36
Speaker 5: because that felt like death by a thousand paper cuts.
10:40
Speaker 7: Yeah, last year was tough, man.
10:41
Speaker 6: You had a Hubbard who had his best game of
10:45
Speaker 6: the year seventy four yards and one touchdown against the
10:48
Speaker 6: Seahawks and really didn't do much after them.
10:50
Speaker 7: So yeah, we don't need that.
10:52
Speaker 6: Marki's Gilwin had a good day ninety five yards on
10:54
Speaker 6: five receptions. Tyler Lockett and DK found the end zone
10:58
Speaker 6: as well. So last year was the first went over
11:00
Speaker 6: the Seahawks is twenty sixteen.
11:02
Speaker 7: We're hoping it's.
11:04
Speaker 4: A lot better this time around, no question about it.
11:07
Speaker 5: No more wins at Lumitfield, please, But let's check in
11:09
Speaker 5: with the rest of the division. What's the words and
11:16
Speaker 5: the Seahawks or the NFC West champs again.
11:20
Speaker 4: What's the word in the west On Hawk talk.
11:25
Speaker 6: I'll tell you one thing, man, the Rams might be
11:27
Speaker 6: better than what we thought. They played a very good
11:30
Speaker 6: game against the forty nine ers. It was entertaining, man.
11:34
Speaker 6: First half of football was great.
11:35
Speaker 7: Man.
11:36
Speaker 6: The combined score, excuse me, the both teams combining the
11:38
Speaker 6: score on six of the seven possessions. As the game
11:41
Speaker 6: was tied seventeen to seventeen. I saw that on the
11:44
Speaker 6: big screen. I thought something's wrong Fox or whoever aired
11:47
Speaker 6: that game, got a little typo going on.
11:48
Speaker 7: But I was wrong, man, it was real.
11:50
Speaker 6: At the beginning of the fourth it seem about the
11:51
Speaker 6: forty nine er to control the game. They went seven
11:53
Speaker 6: plays seventy four yards, ending with a Deebo Semuel eleven
11:56
Speaker 6: yard touchdown made the score twenty seven to seventeen. But
11:59
Speaker 6: the Rams answer with a field goal, forced to three
12:02
Speaker 6: and out and then getting the ball back trailing twenty
12:04
Speaker 6: seven and twenty with five minutes left in the game.
12:07
Speaker 6: Fortunately Matthew Stafford he was intercepted looking for Van Jefferson.
12:12
Speaker 6: Pretty much icy game, but both teams would add garbage
12:16
Speaker 6: time field goals, and that was kind of suspect. You
12:18
Speaker 6: see garbage time field goals? Did you see the spread?
12:21
Speaker 6: The spread, they're kicking field goal. They're rushing to kick
12:25
Speaker 6: a field goal with ten seconds left to talk about
12:27
Speaker 6: the rams. Ten seconds left, the Russian to kick a
12:29
Speaker 6: field goal. The game is over when the field goals kicked. Man,
12:32
Speaker 6: I don't know, dog is there the script zeroscript?
12:36
Speaker 5: The script is that, well, maybe it's something like, I
12:39
Speaker 5: don't know. They just trying to work on procedure. Bump
12:41
Speaker 5: didn't get enough work and practice had to run the
12:43
Speaker 5: field goal unit on.
12:44
Speaker 4: I don't know, Bump, I don't know.
12:46
Speaker 7: That looked kind of suspected me, but you know, we'll
12:48
Speaker 7: move on. We'll move on.
12:49
Speaker 6: Brock Perdy had a Jimmy G type of stat line.
12:51
Speaker 6: He was seventeen to twenty five, two oh six, no touchdowns,
12:54
Speaker 6: no sptions.
12:56
Speaker 7: He had a Russian touchdown.
12:57
Speaker 6: He took care of the football, but he missed a
12:58
Speaker 6: lot of receivers along the way. McCaffrey did what he
13:01
Speaker 6: had to do, one hundred and sixteen yards of twenty
13:03
Speaker 6: carries in one touchdown. Deebo had one hundred and one
13:07
Speaker 6: yards total offense in a touchdown on the Rams sign man,
13:10
Speaker 6: Pooking in the Cool. All right, they're gonna have to
13:12
Speaker 6: start playing for this dude, because he's for real, fifteen receptions,
13:16
Speaker 6: one forty seven on twenty targets. I don't think I've
13:19
Speaker 6: ever had twenty targets in the game ever in my life.
13:22
Speaker 7: Good for him.
13:23
Speaker 6: He's a fifth round pick and uh he's breaking records, man,
13:26
Speaker 6: And I like what he's doing. The question now, is
13:30
Speaker 6: it's Cooper? Oh well, this was someone asked me, though
13:32
Speaker 6: I thought it was foolish. They go, it's Cooper Cup.
13:34
Speaker 6: Really that good? If pookin the Cool is doing all this,
13:36
Speaker 6: I go pumping breaks. He balled out in college, triple
13:39
Speaker 6: crown winner. You don't just stumble across nineteen hundred yards.
13:42
Speaker 6: Teams are going to start adjusting for Pooka here pretty soon.
13:45
Speaker 5: Yeah, pooking a Coola the former UB player and went
13:48
Speaker 5: to BYU and got a little bit more burning. Is
13:50
Speaker 5: obviously torn up two teams to start the year. But
13:52
Speaker 5: you're right, come on, now, that's silliness, the pride of
13:55
Speaker 5: Eastern Washington and you're talking about Cooper Cup. No man,
13:58
Speaker 5: he listen Pooka is a good player, and yes, are
14:02
Speaker 5: his numbers inflated because he's getting twenty targets. Yeah, i'd
14:04
Speaker 5: hope you put up some numbers there, But you're right,
14:06
Speaker 5: people are gonna game plan for him and it's gonna
14:09
Speaker 5: be it'll be different moving forward. But what's crazy is
14:11
Speaker 5: how the forty nine ers beat them in nine straight
14:14
Speaker 5: matchups regular season. I will say because if your Rams
14:17
Speaker 5: fan yours, say, hold on a minute, who won the
14:19
Speaker 5: NFC Championship game, which is obviously the biggest of all
14:22
Speaker 5: those nine matchups, But still, it's hard to beat a
14:24
Speaker 5: team in your division nine times in a row.
14:26
Speaker 4: That's pretty wild elsewhere in the division.
14:29
Speaker 5: Giants at the Cardinals, and man, the way this game
14:32
Speaker 5: started to bump, it looked like the New York Giants
14:34
Speaker 5: were never gonna score a point in this season.
14:37
Speaker 4: They were not.
14:37
Speaker 5: Only they got outscored forty to nothing in Week one
14:40
Speaker 5: against the Cowboys, and it was more of the same
14:42
Speaker 5: against the Cardinals. That first half boom, They're down twenty
14:45
Speaker 5: to nothing. At the half, Giants were just eighty one
14:47
Speaker 5: yards of offense compared to the Cardinals two forty one.
14:50
Speaker 5: So just like we're talking about the Rams. I'm starting
14:52
Speaker 5: to think, well, maybe the Cardinals aren't as bad as
14:54
Speaker 5: we thought. Too Well, things started to change, but bow
15:00
Speaker 5: on New York's offensive woes their first six quarters this year,
15:03
Speaker 5: at least by one measure, or the worst in NFL history.
15:06
Speaker 5: Giants gave up sixty points before Jones ran in a touchdown,
15:09
Speaker 5: the team's first points of the year. It was the
15:11
Speaker 5: third most points given up before scoring a touchdowns. It's
15:14
Speaker 5: nineteen to fifty. So I don't know what that means
15:18
Speaker 5: for the Cowboys or what that means for the Cardinals,
15:22
Speaker 5: because we don't know who the Giants are, and we
15:24
Speaker 5: still know who the Cardinals are because things got really
15:26
Speaker 5: bad in the second half. All Giants. They scored on
15:28
Speaker 5: every possession, four straight touchdowns. Meanwhile, the Cardinals, after a
15:32
Speaker 5: touchdown on their first possession in the second half, would
15:34
Speaker 5: not score a point on the next four drives. They
15:37
Speaker 5: had a chance with the game in the drive at
15:39
Speaker 5: the end, got the ball back tied at twenty eight
15:41
Speaker 5: five minutes left, they would go three and out and
15:43
Speaker 5: Danny Dimes let an eight play fifty eight yard drive.
15:47
Speaker 4: Graham Gono kicks a field goal. They win. Dimes throes
15:51
Speaker 4: for over three.
15:51
Speaker 5: Hundred and two touchdowns win interception, Joshua Dobbs twenty one
15:55
Speaker 5: to thirty one two twenty eight one touchdown. Dobbs is
15:58
Speaker 5: now zero and four as a starter, and Jonathan Gannon
16:01
Speaker 5: is still seeking his first win in the National Football League.
16:06
Speaker 4: That's what's going on in the West.
16:08
Speaker 5: Let's get back to the team we're playing this week,
16:10
Speaker 5: the Carolina Panthers.
16:11
Speaker 1: Man ups, man up on Hawk Talk.
16:23
Speaker 6: All right, let's look at some of these matches. The
16:25
Speaker 6: first one we got to talk about the number one pick.
16:29
Speaker 6: He was number one pick. Huh, the number one pick
16:32
Speaker 6: in the draft.
16:33
Speaker 7: I always get him in CJ because I didn't want
16:35
Speaker 7: to two.
16:35
Speaker 6: But Brice young Man, he was the first pick in
16:37
Speaker 6: twenty twenty three, and he won the Heisman Trophy.
16:43
Speaker 7: You win the Heisman Trophy in college football.
16:45
Speaker 6: You got high expectations on you coming into the league,
16:48
Speaker 6: but you.
16:48
Speaker 7: Also realize that you're a quarterback and you're going to struggle.
16:50
Speaker 6: But in twenty twenty one, Man he was three hundred
16:53
Speaker 6: and sixty six of five forty seven forty eight hundred yards,
16:56
Speaker 6: forty seven touchdowns.
16:58
Speaker 7: And seven interception.
16:59
Speaker 6: Stupid numbers are ridiculous, right, throughout college, he had eighty
17:04
Speaker 6: three and fifty seven yards eighty touchdowns in twelve interceptions.
17:08
Speaker 6: The Panthers are off to an on to start, but
17:11
Speaker 6: this is typical for a guy who's picked number one.
17:13
Speaker 6: According to ESPN, quarterbacks taking number one in the past
17:17
Speaker 6: forty five drafts are combined ninety four two hundred and
17:19
Speaker 6: sixty two in games they started in year one. Safe
17:23
Speaker 6: to say if you draft a quarterback number one overall
17:26
Speaker 6: and you put them out there expected text mails. Week
17:29
Speaker 6: one took a L. He was twenty to thirty eight
17:31
Speaker 6: one forty seven one touchdown to interception, sack twice.
17:34
Speaker 7: Week two took an L twenty two.
17:36
Speaker 6: Or thirty three, one fifty three yards, one touchdown, zero interceptions,
17:40
Speaker 6: getting better, okay, and sacked four times.
17:42
Speaker 7: So far in the year.
17:43
Speaker 6: He's completing fifty nine percent of his passes two hundred
17:45
Speaker 6: ninety nine yards.
17:46
Speaker 7: We did that in a in a game.
17:47
Speaker 6: That's two touchdowns, two interceptions, one fumbalsaws, sacks six times.
17:52
Speaker 6: This is gonna be hard in this guy, man, It's
17:53
Speaker 6: gonna be tough. The Panthers are ranked a twenty eighth
17:56
Speaker 6: in the NFL in total offense. The ring thirty second
17:58
Speaker 6: in passing to see, thirty first until the defense, and
18:02
Speaker 6: thirtieth against the pass. So if you look at the
18:04
Speaker 6: matchup on paper, like you mentioned earlier, you think it
18:07
Speaker 6: could be a tight game, and you never really know.
18:09
Speaker 7: Because this is the NFL. We don't sleep on nobody.
18:12
Speaker 4: No, we definitely do not.
18:13
Speaker 5: Especially you know it didn't when you watch the Seahawks game.
18:17
Speaker 5: Maybe it's have a little bit of recency bias. Would
18:19
Speaker 5: watch them last week because they took the ball away,
18:21
Speaker 5: because they're more aggressive. I felt like they played so
18:24
Speaker 5: much better defensively, and then you look at the box
18:26
Speaker 5: scored and.
18:27
Speaker 4: Go, dang, we still give up a lot of yards.
18:29
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying, It didn't.
18:30
Speaker 5: I don't know, kind of a deceiving I still felt
18:32
Speaker 5: like they were so much improved and they just look
18:34
Speaker 5: better with how they did things. So I'm hoping for
18:37
Speaker 5: a better performance defensively and get after this rookie man.
18:40
Speaker 5: Bryce Young is a talented the Heisman Trophy winner, you
18:42
Speaker 5: said it, he's a good football player, but right now
18:45
Speaker 5: he's just trying to figure it out.
18:46
Speaker 4: Bump.
18:47
Speaker 5: Right now, he's still trying to get the play calls
18:49
Speaker 5: in on time. He's still trying to right. So get
18:52
Speaker 5: after these boys. Man, Come on, Channon Nuwoasu, go get
18:55
Speaker 5: after him. Darryl Taylor, Jaron Reed, Draymond Jones. I think
18:59
Speaker 5: they can. His life a tough one. On Sunday, footbit
19:03
Speaker 5: into our side. The quarterback Gino smith Man did he
19:06
Speaker 5: have a good bounce back performance bump against the Lions.
19:08
Speaker 5: He became the first player in franchise history with three
19:11
Speaker 5: hundred and twenty five passing yards, two touchdown passes, and
19:14
Speaker 5: a seventy five percent completion rate. So on this list,
19:17
Speaker 5: Gino is in prestigious company most games with three hundred
19:21
Speaker 5: yard passing seventy percent completion since twenty twenty two, He's
19:25
Speaker 5: had five of those games. Patrick Mahomes has had five,
19:27
Speaker 5: and there's four other players tied for three. So safe
19:30
Speaker 5: to say my man is doing it and doing it big.
19:32
Speaker 5: Happy to see him bounce back after kind of a
19:34
Speaker 5: flu keep performance against the Rams because we know he
19:37
Speaker 5: has such a better resume than that, and it was
19:39
Speaker 5: good to see him bounce back. He also led his
19:42
Speaker 5: eleventh game winning drive and his fifty third career start,
19:46
Speaker 5: so he's doing it big and I love to see
19:48
Speaker 5: Geno Smith on the season forty eight of sixty seven,
19:51
Speaker 5: seventy one point six completion percentage, four hundred and forty yards,
19:54
Speaker 5: three touchdowns, zero interceptions, sacked three times. But he will
19:59
Speaker 5: have his hands full ump you alluded to it on
20:00
Speaker 5: a good defense by the Carolina Panthers or rank fourth
20:03
Speaker 5: against the pass, and you know, we'll see how Gino
20:07
Speaker 5: can exploit them.
20:08
Speaker 4: With J. C.
20:08
Speaker 5: Horn out on ir he picked off Geno Smith in
20:11
Speaker 5: last year's matchup, but they still have first round pick C. J.
20:14
Speaker 4: Henderson and safety's Xavier Woods.
20:16
Speaker 5: In von Bell. They're a pretty hype group coming out
20:19
Speaker 5: of training camp. So we'll see how Geno Smith can
20:21
Speaker 5: get after those guys.
20:23
Speaker 7: Yeah, man, Gino's gonna have to uh be what it man?
20:26
Speaker 6: That stat that you you just mentioned about three hundre
20:28
Speaker 6: passing yards seventy percent completion rate is wild to me
20:31
Speaker 6: because we know that the level that Gino's I'll see
20:34
Speaker 6: me Pat Mahomes plays at.
20:35
Speaker 7: To see Gino up there with him is amazing.
20:38
Speaker 2: Man.
20:38
Speaker 7: All right, let's talk about the backfield.
20:40
Speaker 2: Man.
20:40
Speaker 6: You got Miles Sanders over from Philly and got Chubba
20:43
Speaker 6: is a Chubb or Cuba Chuba Hubbard I'm gonna.
20:46
Speaker 4: Say, Cuba Hubbard. You just go with Hubbard, Chubba.
20:50
Speaker 5: I don't know Oklahoma State, Hey, Sea hub see hub
20:53
Speaker 5: back there all right?
20:55
Speaker 6: Hey, for a long time, and you looked at the Panthers,
20:57
Speaker 6: and you thought about McCaffrey, his squad, him doing amazing things.
21:01
Speaker 6: A thousand yards receiving, thousand yards rushing. He is no
21:04
Speaker 6: longer there. Man, he was getting paid a lot of money.
21:06
Speaker 6: So they signed Miles Sanders on a four year, twenty
21:09
Speaker 6: five million dollar contract. He's twenty six years old. His
21:12
Speaker 6: beast year, he had twelve hundred yards eleven touchdowns. I
21:15
Speaker 6: was in twenty twenty two. He had added another one
21:18
Speaker 6: hundred and thirty two yards under ground in two touchdowns
21:20
Speaker 6: in Philadelphia's first two playoffs games.
21:22
Speaker 7: So he made the Pro Bowl. This guy kN ball.
21:25
Speaker 6: He was a good part of that team last year,
21:27
Speaker 6: the Philadelphia Eagles, and what they wanted to do. So
21:31
Speaker 6: you look at what he's done this year. Thirty two carries,
21:33
Speaker 6: one hundred and fifteen yards, no touchdowns, had one fumble.
21:36
Speaker 6: It's only a matter of time before he gets going.
21:38
Speaker 6: And let's just make sure it's not this week. They
21:41
Speaker 6: look at Sea hub he was a fourth round pick
21:44
Speaker 6: out of Oklahoma State. He's done pretty good as the
21:46
Speaker 6: number two. Over two seasons. He has eleven hundred yards
21:49
Speaker 6: and seven touchdowns. Again, had his best game against the
21:52
Speaker 6: Seahawks last year, let's not repeat that. Are the Sea
21:56
Speaker 6: also looking to build off of back to back solid
21:58
Speaker 6: games against the run and they do that this week.
22:01
Speaker 6: I think they can, but it's going to be a
22:03
Speaker 6: tough little goal. As a team, they're thirteenth in NFL
22:05
Speaker 6: allowing only ninety seven yards per game. If they can
22:08
Speaker 6: keep that up, I like the chances for the Seahawks.
22:11
Speaker 6: I'm against the Panthers, however, while they are thirteenth in
22:14
Speaker 6: yards per game and teams are running the ball against
22:17
Speaker 6: them at a high clip sixty seven times, that's the
22:19
Speaker 6: fifth most in the NFL.
22:21
Speaker 7: That means you have to defend the run, all right.
22:23
Speaker 6: Seahows have to defend the run because teams are going
22:25
Speaker 6: to test them out and see if the stats are
22:28
Speaker 6: true and get to go.
22:29
Speaker 7: But I believe man. I think that they are legit
22:32
Speaker 7: and they can continue to be good against the run.
22:34
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think it's not a fluke. I think what
22:36
Speaker 5: we've seen from them in two games, I mean, you
22:39
Speaker 5: just laid it out. That means that they're not only
22:41
Speaker 5: is there a high volume of carries against them, they're
22:43
Speaker 5: still stopping it. So I'm excited to see that it's
22:46
Speaker 5: not a fluke and have them to continue to show
22:48
Speaker 5: what they can do week in and week out. Now
22:52
Speaker 5: bump flipping it to the defensive side for these Carolina Panthers.
22:56
Speaker 5: Brian Burns is a guy that we got to look
22:57
Speaker 5: at because he's a baller dog. Straight up, he can play.
23:01
Speaker 5: He's coming off one of his best best seedings of
23:04
Speaker 5: his career. The former first round pick from LSU sixteenth overall.
23:08
Speaker 5: Last year, he had sixty three tackles, twelve and a
23:10
Speaker 5: half sacks, seventeen TFLs, twenty two QB hits, three passes defended,
23:16
Speaker 5: one force fumble. He's now made the Pro Bowl back
23:18
Speaker 5: to back seasons, and it was just one of three
23:20
Speaker 5: players including Max Crosby and Miles Garrett, to record twelve
23:24
Speaker 5: sacks and fifteen tackles for loss and sixty tackles in
23:27
Speaker 5: a season.
23:28
Speaker 4: So he does a lot of good stuff. Man, I
23:30
Speaker 4: could go on and on about his stats right here.
23:33
Speaker 5: He's just a guy that you know, the Seahawks need
23:36
Speaker 5: to acount for pretty much on every single play he
23:38
Speaker 5: picked up or he left off. Last season with nine tackles,
23:41
Speaker 5: two TFLs, and two sacks, one force fumble through the
23:44
Speaker 5: first two games. So things are not going to get
23:46
Speaker 5: easier on the edges for the Seahawks offense. Whether that's
23:49
Speaker 5: Stone forth Sight, Jake Kerhan running backs picking him up,
23:53
Speaker 5: They're gonna have to count.
23:53
Speaker 4: For where Brian Burns is at at all times.
23:56
Speaker 6: Yeah, point him out idea, because he's gonna be out
24:00
Speaker 6: make some plays.
24:01
Speaker 7: I'm a matchup.
24:02
Speaker 6: I'm really looking forward to looking at ken Walker and
24:04
Speaker 6: Zach Scharbona versus the Panthers front seven seatowks came into
24:08
Speaker 6: this game ranked twenty six when it comes to run
24:10
Speaker 6: the football average in eighty three point five yards per
24:13
Speaker 6: game in the first two weeks.
24:15
Speaker 7: I expect that to change. We haven't really seen Zach
24:18
Speaker 7: Charbonay touched.
24:18
Speaker 6: The ball a lot, only seven carries for twenty seven yards,
24:21
Speaker 6: and then we've seen a dose of ken Walker.
24:23
Speaker 7: This hasn't been a really break one yet.
24:25
Speaker 6: He's got one hundred and seven yards on twenty nine
24:27
Speaker 6: carries and two touchdowns. The Seahalks ran the ball twenty
24:30
Speaker 6: five times next week, which is about where we want
24:33
Speaker 6: them to be. It's just we want a bit more
24:36
Speaker 6: explosives out of this whole deal, all right, So we
24:39
Speaker 6: expect Walker to come through.
24:41
Speaker 7: He's due for a hundred yard game.
24:43
Speaker 6: I expect Walker to get a hundo and then all
24:45
Speaker 6: I need is Zach Sharbonay to get like five or
24:47
Speaker 6: six for fifty and an explosive running there somewhere to
24:51
Speaker 6: keep defenses on their toes.
24:53
Speaker 5: Oh, for sure. I think they're absolutely due for a
24:55
Speaker 5: big game. In with sharbon Na, I just want to
24:58
Speaker 5: go out there and punish people, man, because that's what
24:59
Speaker 5: he's been doing the last couple of weeks. Every time
25:01
Speaker 5: he gets the ball. It's limited, but he's punishing people.
25:03
Speaker 5: And I also like how he's been protecting in the
25:06
Speaker 5: past game. He's come up big on some big cutch
25:09
Speaker 5: throws for Gino Smith. So good to see Sharbonne there.
25:12
Speaker 5: I love the kid out of UCLA. In the last matchup,
25:14
Speaker 5: I want to look at DK Metcalf and Tyl Lockett
25:16
Speaker 5: taken on this Panthers secondary. These two had a great
25:20
Speaker 5: bounce back performance in Week two against the Lions. They
25:23
Speaker 5: combined for fourteen receptions one hundred and thirty four yards
25:26
Speaker 5: two touchdowns on sixteen targets. Lockett always adding to the
25:30
Speaker 5: stat book every single week. His forty seven touchdowns since
25:33
Speaker 5: twenty eighteen ranked fifth in the NFL, and he's the
25:36
Speaker 5: only player in the league with at least eight receiving
25:38
Speaker 5: touchdowns in the last five seasons. Against the Lions, Lockett
25:43
Speaker 5: recorded his tenth two receiving touchdown game of his career,
25:47
Speaker 5: joining Steve Largent as the only two.
25:49
Speaker 4: Players in franchise history.
25:50
Speaker 5: So it goes without saying if you're on the list
25:52
Speaker 5: with Steve Argent, and it says, y'all two, you're doing
25:54
Speaker 5: something well, so love yeah.
25:58
Speaker 4: Right.
25:59
Speaker 5: And the crazy thing is, if Lockett has four more
26:02
Speaker 5: one thousand yard seasons, he'll still be behind Steve Varshin.
26:06
Speaker 5: And that's crazy. Think about when he did that, you
26:08
Speaker 5: know what I'm saying. So it's like, anyway, gloves, no gloves.
26:14
Speaker 4: Oh, that's why he's.
26:15
Speaker 5: Got the jacket, man, That's why he's got the jacket.
26:18
Speaker 5: But between Lockett and DK, I love to see them
26:20
Speaker 5: show up against the Lions and they're facing the fourth
26:23
Speaker 5: ranked passing defense in the NFL. Again, it's only two games,
26:26
Speaker 5: so I love, I love to see how this matchup
26:27
Speaker 5: kind of works out. I mentioned it earlier how the
26:30
Speaker 5: line of the Panthers were a little hyped up in
26:32
Speaker 5: terms of their secondary coming into this season.
26:34
Speaker 4: So we'll see how they stack up without j. C.
26:36
Speaker 1: Horn.
26:36
Speaker 5: But they've got some talented players over there, so we'll
26:39
Speaker 5: see what happens. They've not allowed a player to pick
26:41
Speaker 5: up one hundred yards this season, They've only allowed one
26:43
Speaker 5: receiving touchdown, so we'll see and hopefully that gets snapped
26:47
Speaker 5: coming to this weekend. But bump, we as we wrap
26:50
Speaker 5: up the show, let's tell everybody how the Seahawks and
26:52
Speaker 5: get a win on Sunday at the victory.
26:56
Speaker 4: After forty five waits for the snap, Michael Vickton puts it.
27:00
Speaker 7: That kick is away.
27:01
Speaker 4: If that kick is gone, to say off when it's gone.
27:06
Speaker 1: It's a path to victory on Hawk Talk.
27:10
Speaker 7: All right, this is how they do it, all right.
27:12
Speaker 6: You have to build off of what you did last week,
27:14
Speaker 6: show the world that your offense is for real and
27:17
Speaker 6: you can put up big yards in numbers.
27:20
Speaker 7: Now, defensively, this is gonna be a tough ask, right,
27:23
Speaker 7: you know.
27:25
Speaker 6: It can be a tough ask if you do not
27:28
Speaker 6: control the run, and if we see Andy Dalton.
27:31
Speaker 7: I can't believe I'm putting those two together running Andy Dalton,
27:34
Speaker 7: but it is what it is.
27:35
Speaker 6: For some reason, we struggle against the backup quarterbacks. So
27:38
Speaker 6: we'll see what happens there. But take care of the
27:40
Speaker 6: ball man. And and I need We had a pick
27:43
Speaker 6: six lash last week.
27:45
Speaker 7: I need this.
27:45
Speaker 6: I need another pick. I'm not asked for a pick six,
27:47
Speaker 6: not gonna be greedy, but give me another pick. Give
27:50
Speaker 6: me some more sacks and quarterback hits. I think we'll
27:52
Speaker 6: be a oh, no question about it. Yeah, take the
27:54
Speaker 6: ball away.
27:55
Speaker 4: That's what this.
27:55
Speaker 5: When this team takes the ball away, they win a
27:57
Speaker 5: lot of games. Look it up Pete Carroll and the
27:58
Speaker 5: turnover margin and me a lot in this program. So I, Bellie,
28:01
Speaker 5: even keep that going and after you know, obviously you
28:04
Speaker 5: mentioned it, keeps stopping the run three weeks in a row. Bump,
28:07
Speaker 5: that's what I want to see. I want everyone to
28:08
Speaker 5: believe this is not a fluke. We're gonna get after
28:11
Speaker 5: that rookie quarterback. They have the worst pass offense in
28:13
Speaker 5: the NFL.
28:14
Speaker 4: Bump.
28:15
Speaker 5: Got to make life hard for him. Gotta make life
28:17
Speaker 5: hard forhim. It can't all be a fluke. He's coming
28:19
Speaker 5: into a tough stadium. It's gonna be hard. You mentioned
28:22
Speaker 5: taking the ball away. They just need to keep doing
28:24
Speaker 5: it man, and cover the middle of the field. You
28:26
Speaker 5: know what I'm saying. Continue to do that. I'd love
28:28
Speaker 5: to see his passing numbers under one hundred and seventy five.
28:31
Speaker 5: I'll say, maybe they hit a play here and there.
28:33
Speaker 5: It's hard to keep people under one hundred and fifty
28:35
Speaker 5: for three weeks in a row. But if we keep
28:37
Speaker 5: him under a one seventy five, Bump, I think it's
28:39
Speaker 5: gonna be a big win for the Seahawks.
28:41
Speaker 6: He better not have his best day as a pro
28:43
Speaker 6: against the Hawks. It cannot happen. Let's get a dumb
28:46
Speaker 6: boys protecting me of the field. No more pooking the
28:48
Speaker 6: cool nonsense, big up to pook it over spec we're
28:51
Speaker 6: doing protect the house. I'm not using that loom and
28:55
Speaker 6: I don't like that feeling.
28:56
Speaker 7: I don't like it. So let's go one another this week.
28:59
Speaker 4: For sure, you bet Bump.
29:00
Speaker 5: Come see his post game hopefully happy with a Seahawks
29:03
Speaker 5: victory on Sunday. Reminder, y'all, you can catch us anywhere
29:06
