  Speaker 1: We know the Seahawks opponent, and so we can now

  Speaker 1: start breaking down the Seahawks and the forty nine ers
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: starting here this morning. Man, when's the last time we
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: played them?
• 1:53
  Speaker 8: Man?

• 2:07
  Speaker 1: Welcome in. How was your weekend?
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: It was all right?
• 2:10
  Speaker 5: Didn't start off all that great. Ducks did not show up,
• 2:14
  Speaker 5: so that was a treat.
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: Why what happened?
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: I know what happened.
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: They don't crush. I think it was sixty sixty three million.
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: I think it was scored twenty or something. Yeah, pretty close,
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: So it's not that close, not in that game. How
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: unbelievable is that team?
• 2:32
  Speaker 5: Indiana?
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Good, they're real good.
• 2:34
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 2:34
  Speaker 5: You're not gonna be able to You're not gonna be
• 2:35
  Speaker 5: able to shoot yourself in the foot a few times
• 2:37
  Speaker 5: and expect it to be close.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: I mean it is one thing I realized that everybody's league.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: I mean, the story itself, to come out of nowhere,
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: and and to turn it around in two years and
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: to take that next jump forward the next year when
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: I think if some people kind of fought after Notre
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: Dame toyed with him in the postseason two seasons ago,
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: that maybe it was a little bit flukish. And then
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: to add to it to become better. Uh, and not
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: only to become better, I mean there's no beating that team.
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: Nobody can beat that team.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: Nobody can come within twenty points of the healthy Miami
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: is not beating that team one week from now.
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: I mean it is unreal.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: I mean to go from a doormat of college football
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: to a team that is pretty much invincible. I mean
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: it's unlikable and very likable, well for now, until they
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: win five straight national championships and everybody hates them the
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: first one. They're liable.
• 3:32
  Speaker 5: Yeah, they're more likable than Miami, but that I only
• 3:35
  Speaker 5: have one reason I like Miami, So we'll move on
• 3:38
  Speaker 5: past that.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: They're good.
• 3:39
  Speaker 5: They are good, I mean they Mendoza is about as
• 3:42
  Speaker 5: accurate as you can ask for a college quarterback. And
• 3:45
  Speaker 5: then they're coached unbelievably. They just flat out they they're
• 3:48
  Speaker 5: where they're supposed to be. They don't make mistakes. They
• 3:52
  Speaker 5: made a few mistakes. I mean, you know, Fernando was
• 3:55
  Speaker 5: scrambling one of his twelve times that he ran for
• 3:58
  Speaker 5: first downs and fumbled it. There was a couple different
• 4:01
  Speaker 5: times where they kind of coughed it up, but I
• 4:03
  Speaker 5: think they've lost one fumble the entire season. So it's
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: like even when they do cough it up, they get
• 4:08
  Speaker 5: back on it. There They're a team that you're gonna
• 4:11
  Speaker 5: have to hope they play unlike how they normally do,
• 4:15
  Speaker 5: which they just execute and they just keep getting better. Yeah,
• 4:18
  Speaker 5: if they don't play like if they play like they play,
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: nobody's beating them.
• 4:21
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 4:22
  Speaker 5: If they make some mistakes and you play an a game,
• 4:25
  Speaker 5: maybe not don't have to play a plus, but you
• 4:27
  Speaker 5: got to play close to damn close to perfect and
• 4:30
  Speaker 5: hope that they screw up a little bitter, you're not
• 4:31
  Speaker 5: gonna win.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: I don't think anybody's beating I don't think Miami's beating
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: the matter. I think Miami's I think Miami's terrific. Yeah,
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: they're very good, very good team. And earned their right
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: to the National Championship game. But man, they just throttled
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: Ohio State in the Big Ten championship game. They're like, well,
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: they can't play better than that, well until they played Alabama, right,
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: and then they can't play better than that, well until
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: they played Oregon for a second time and massacred them
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: even more than the first time that they played them.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's unreal what they've done. And they just
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: keep getting better under Kurt Signetti. So we're a week
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: away from that national championship game the Seahawks will actually
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: play before we play another college football game. Yeah, that
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: which I kind of.
• 5:13
  Speaker 9: I had a moment last night of like, oh no,
• 5:14
  Speaker 9: the national championship games tomorrow, five irons, Like no, they
• 5:18
  Speaker 9: just played. I was like, oh my god, that was
• 5:20
  Speaker 9: just Thursday and Friday. It seems so long ago.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, a quick little turnaround. Yeah, I can't wait till
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: the National Championship game tomorrow. Well, we now know that
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: the Seahawks will take on the San Francisco forty nine ers.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: That will be their first playoff game of this year.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: We also know that the game will be played Saturday.
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: Well we don't know is what time the game will
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: be played on Saturday. That has not yet been determined.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: I don't see how Houston and Pittsburgh affect that, but
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: apparently they're gonna wait until tonight to make the announcement
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: as to what time the Seahawks will be playing on
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: Saturday against the San Francisco forty nine ers, who defeated
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: the Philadelphia Eagles yesterday on a weekend of just I
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: mean terrific playoff football. I mean, we spent a large
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: percentage of our season this year talking about how evenly
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: matched this year seems to be, that there might not
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: be a great team out there. I think the Seahawks
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: did reach that by season's end. I think the Rams
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: have touched upon that at times. And yet it's been
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: one of those years where you know, the playoffs get announced,
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: to see the matchups, and you can't figure out who
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: you even favor to go all the way to the
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: Super Bowl. And yesterday and the day before lived up
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: to that. I think I heard there were fourteen fourth
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: quarter lead changes over the weekend. I mean, that's how
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: evenly fought that this thing was. There wasn't even a
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: more than one unscore lead I think by any team
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: until the Patriots last night against the against the Chargers,
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: they sort of manhandled Justin Herbert and the Chargers last night.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: By the rest of the weekend, I mean, was pretty
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: much a coin toss. It just shows you how evenly
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: match these teams seem.
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: To be this year.
• 7:18
  Speaker 5: Yeah, there's there was that was good football all the
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: way around as far as the competitiveness of it, and
• 7:24
  Speaker 5: it did feel like there was some hard fought battles
• 7:27
  Speaker 5: that then you just kind of at the end it's like, Okay,
• 7:30
  Speaker 5: who's who's going to step up? And typically it will
• 7:33
  Speaker 5: be which quarterback's going to step up? And you know,
• 7:36
  Speaker 5: until that last game, it was it was more that
• 7:38
  Speaker 5: it wasn't that Herbert didn't as much as it was
• 7:41
  Speaker 5: that the Patriots it's like, we're just gonna come smash
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: you now it's smash time, and they just basically made
• 7:46
  Speaker 5: it impossible.
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: For him to do anything.
• 7:48
  Speaker 5: But yeah, all the way around, and the storylines are
• 7:51
  Speaker 5: are pretty cool. I mean, the way the Panthers battled
• 7:54
  Speaker 5: the Rams was that was a great game.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: The only game I got right this weekend, and it's
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: the game I was most wrong about.
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that makes sense be a blowout.
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: I kind of felt the rest of the games were
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: going to be tight, and yeah, okay, I came out
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: on the losing end of it, but I was sure
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: that was going to be a blowout, and here the
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: Panthers have a shot to win in the fourth quarter.
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: For goodness sake.
• 8:15
  Speaker 5: They matched up well against I mean, and the Rams
• 8:18
  Speaker 5: didn't play great. Stafford wasn't great there. It was like
• 8:22
  Speaker 5: he looked like he was going to be and then
• 8:23
  Speaker 5: he didn't. He hasn't been. There's been a few games
• 8:26
  Speaker 5: down the stretch, even you know the game against the
• 8:28
  Speaker 5: Seahawks where it was like he looked unstoppable at one
• 8:31
  Speaker 5: point in time and then all of a sudden couldn't
• 8:33
  Speaker 5: do anything right. I mean, he was unbelievable at first,
• 8:35
  Speaker 5: and then he went zero for seven or eight or
• 8:37
  Speaker 5: nine in a row, which is just unlike uncharacteristic of him.
• 8:41
  Speaker 5: But the Panthers seemed to match up well against them.
• 8:44
  Speaker 5: I mean, they just kind of went out there and
• 8:46
  Speaker 5: did what they needed to do to make it a game.
• 8:48
  Speaker 5: But ultimately the Rams just had a little bit too
• 8:51
  Speaker 5: much there at the end. But yeah, there's just it
• 8:53
  Speaker 5: just felt like one game after another just kept giving
• 8:56
  Speaker 5: you a different storyline or a different reason, a different team.
• 8:59
  Speaker 5: The Bears whole thing against the Packers, that whole I mean,
• 9:02
  Speaker 5: Jordan Love went out and balled out, but they just
• 9:05
  Speaker 5: kind of didn't do enough at the end, got a
• 9:07
  Speaker 5: little bit conservative, and the Bears said, okay, well, if
• 9:09
  Speaker 5: you're gonna let us back in, or Mat.
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: Or Matt Leaf in other words, I think what you're
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: trying to say is Matt.
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: Lafleur completely blew it.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: I mean, that was some of the worst clock management
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: in the history of football right there.
• 9:22
  Speaker 9: It was an ideal.
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, they ran had.
• 9:26
  Speaker 9: An extension with them apparently.
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: Now they ran an eight play forty three yard drive
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: at the end of the fourth quarter, you know, midway
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: to the fourth eight plays forty three yards. The Bears
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: used one of their timeouts, and they chewed up one
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: minute and twenty seven seconds. I mean, you have to
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: be trying not to win, Yeah, when you only chew
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: up a minute and you ran eight plays trying to
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: like milk with a lead and you chewed up less
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: than a minute, and.
• 10:04
  Speaker 9: I mean, yeah, you've got a play clock that you
• 10:06
  Speaker 9: can I mean, that's just just let that run.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: I mean, did you intentionally want to lose that game.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's how it felt with Matt Lafleur and
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: the Packers. But we'll go through some of that with
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: Cold Turkey Sandwich coming up here at six thirty. But
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: Seahawks forty nine Ers, that is the matchup, of course
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: for Mike McDonald. He's got to face the same team
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: two weeks in a row. The last time these two
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: teams played, the Seahawks they won by ten. It felt
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: like they sort of dominated that football game. But Kyle
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: Shanahan and his team of resolve, and you've got to
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: give him credit for that. Man they are they battle
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: those San Francisco forty nine Ers, they bounce back against
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: the defending world champs, the Philadelphia Eagles on the road,
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: and they end up winning that football game. Lost another
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: star player to an injury and George Kittle who will
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: be out for the rest of the postseason, but nonetheless,
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: the San Francisco forty nine Ers somehow found a way
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: to pull it off yesterday. And so that's the matchup
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: this Saturday, Seahawks versus the forty nine Ers. We're gonna
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: do it again. These two teams have split, just like
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: the Rams and the Seahawks have split. It's turned into
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: the NFC West Invitational here the NFC Conference Final four.
• 11:24
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and it'll be interesting to see. I mean, I
• 11:27
  Speaker 5: saw Mike McDonald on an interview after, like on TV
• 11:31
  Speaker 5: after the playoffs were done, or I think it was
• 11:34
  Speaker 5: before the Chargers Patriots game, but they he looked pretty
• 11:38
  Speaker 5: he looked very comfortable. Now, I don't know for sure
• 11:40
  Speaker 5: if it was overconfident or like, yeah, we get the
• 11:42
  Speaker 5: Niners again. But you have to feel good if you're
• 11:44
  Speaker 5: a Seahawks fan or a Seahawk knowing that the last
• 11:47
  Speaker 5: time you stepped on a football field it was against them,
• 11:50
  Speaker 5: and you put it on them. And the way in
• 11:52
  Speaker 5: which they won the Week one matchup was I wouldn't
• 11:56
  Speaker 5: say fluky.
• 11:56
  Speaker 7: But it was.
• 11:57
  Speaker 5: There's a bad play there towards the end that that,
• 12:00
  Speaker 5: and I throws the ball up. I saw another replay
• 12:02
  Speaker 5: of that yesterday, and it's like, how brock perty even
• 12:04
  Speaker 5: thinks about throwing that ball.
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: I have no idea.
• 12:07
  Speaker 5: A guy wouldn't even open and and Reek is just
• 12:11
  Speaker 5: sitting there waiting for it, and the tight end just
• 12:14
  Speaker 5: jumped right up in front of it. So it feels like,
• 12:17
  Speaker 5: you know, you get the matchup that you probably would
• 12:19
  Speaker 5: have wanted if it wasn't the Panthers. I guess that
• 12:21
  Speaker 5: would have been what we thought coming into it, and
• 12:23
  Speaker 5: still maybe the way in which you played them. But
• 12:26
  Speaker 5: really it's kind of one of those all right, bring
• 12:28
  Speaker 5: on all comers. At least that's what That's what I'm
• 12:31
  Speaker 5: sure that the Seahawks are thinking.
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: I think that's a good way that you put it.
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's the matchup that you think you want.
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: I mean, of course, nothing carries over from that last game.
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: We're not going to be spotted ten points that would
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: be awesome, man three points or anything like that.
• 12:46
  Speaker 9: Certain things we could adopt from soccer and I'd be
• 12:48
  Speaker 9: fine with it.
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: We don't know, you know, you don't know what kind
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: of I mean, Trent Williams will be playing, I'm assuming
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: in this game where he didn't play in the last game.
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: Of course, George Kittle won't be playing in this game
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: where he did the last game. You don't know what
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: kind of tone gets set early. But you know, just
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: on and you don't you never know. You never This
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: is sports. That is why it's so wonderful. That's why
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: you know, we love it. Or you should love it
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: is just the unexpected. Uh you know which team you
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: know has three guys with the flu? Knock on wood
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: or you know, stuff like that. You never know what's
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: gonna happen when you show up at the ballpark that day.
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: But in terms of just man, we just played this team.
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: We just throttled this team. I really can't imagine that
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: they're going to come up with any answers for Mike
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: McDonald's defense. Since last they played, you've got home field advantage,
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: they didn't get to rest, they got beat up even
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: more this weekend, and they're actually going to be on
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: short rest, which I do think is a fair gripe
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: from the San Francisco forty nine Ers fans. The why
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: are we playing on Saturday when both the Bears and
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: the Rams played on Saturday and could get a full
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: week's rest. Why do we when we played on Sunday,
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: have to only get Why do we get a less
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: the rest? We're in the playoffs, are we not? I
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: think it's a legitimate gripe. Now the National Football League
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: has decided that they want to give that one seed
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: every advantage in the world, and it's not for the Seahawks,
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: and it's not for the Broncos. It's really keeping in
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: mind if we ever have that team that's sixteen in
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: one that people can't get enough of, that dominated the
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: regular season.
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: We want to make sure they get to the super Bowl.
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: And give them every chance they can to get there.
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: So they've made a conscious decision the league recently to
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: make sure that the number one seed gets every possible
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: advantage to get to the super Bowl that we can
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: give them within the rules construct of our rules. And
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: so this was something determined years ago people in a
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: board room, and not overnight to screw over the forty
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: nine ers fans, but I do get where they're coming from.
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: You're gonna give us a day's less rest, and you're
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: gonna give the Bears and the forty excuse me, the
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: Bears and the Rams an extra day. It doesn't really
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: make sense when the Seahawks are sitting there with a
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: full week's rest. There's no reason why we shouldn't be
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: playing on Sunday. And the only reason that you're not
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: is because the NFL made these rules months ago.
• 15:29
  Speaker 9: Y yes, Greg said it was like since twenty nineteen
• 15:32
  Speaker 9: they had the number one seeds play on Saturday. So
• 15:35
  Speaker 9: there you go. Yes, I can, I can understand the yes,
• 15:38
  Speaker 9: the oh that's not fair. And Shanahan afterwards was like
• 15:42
  Speaker 9: if the NFL wants to be considerate or whatever he said,
• 15:45
  Speaker 9: and people were like, well, clearly they don't want to
• 15:47
  Speaker 9: be considerate. Well, you know what earn the number one seed?
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. Yeah, and you can't change the rules. You
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: can't just because it looks odd. But I'm not sure
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: that rule should be in place. I think that in
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: the playoffs, you know, you've already got one team that's
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: gonna have two full weeks. You probably should have left
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: a little bit of a door open to protect against
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: something like this. But whatever, we'll take the advantage.
• 16:12
  Speaker 9: Well yeah, and selfishly, selfishly, I want the game on
• 16:15
  Speaker 9: Saturday because it's just more enjoyable when you get to
• 16:17
  Speaker 9: just make the day of it and have it that
• 16:19
  Speaker 9: and not worry, you know, if it's a Sunday night game.
• 16:22
  Speaker 9: Oh I don't, you know, now I got to go
• 16:24
  Speaker 9: to bed, and I don't. I just want it to
• 16:26
  Speaker 9: be fun.
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: Bills are gonna have to do the same thing, yeah themselves,
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: of course, you know, it's the Texans have to play
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: tonight or the Steelers have to play tonight, So it
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: would really, really, it'd be criminal if you made them
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: turn around and play on Saturday. Then they're deprived two
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: days of preparation. It's like a Thursday night game. And
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: I don't that's that's outlandish, but that's that's what the
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: rules have set up in advance in the National Football League.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: So it is what it is. I mean, it's not
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: like you've only got three days and you got to
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: turn it around. You have almost a full week, so stop.
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 17:00
  Speaker 5: Well, I mean that's the downside of that of not
• 17:04
  Speaker 5: coming out on top for the Niners in that big
• 17:06
  Speaker 5: pivotal I mean, the swing between getting a buy getting
• 17:10
  Speaker 5: home field throughout, or being the sixth seed where they
• 17:14
  Speaker 5: wound up. Well, good job you advance past the you know,
• 17:18
  Speaker 5: somewhat rudderless Eagles and their kind of offense that just
• 17:22
  Speaker 5: could not find a way to get going. Very resilient win,
• 17:25
  Speaker 5: but yeah, you earned the sixth seed over of course
• 17:27
  Speaker 5: the full season, and so it's the deck is stacked
• 17:31
  Speaker 5: against you to get through the playoffs. That's for every
• 17:33
  Speaker 5: team that didn't get the buye in the first round.
• 17:36
  Speaker 5: It's like, yeah, there is another team. There's one team
• 17:39
  Speaker 5: in each in each conference that gets all of the perks,
• 17:43
  Speaker 5: and I think they giving them as many as possible.
• 17:45
  Speaker 5: I mean, I think that all these wildcard games should
• 17:47
  Speaker 5: have been played on Friday and then the next round
• 17:50
  Speaker 5: the next day. I'm kidding, there's no rest. Fly straight
• 17:55
  Speaker 5: to Seattle from Philadelphia and play the next day. That'd
• 17:57
  Speaker 5: be great.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I'm not worry about Saturday or Sunday San Francisco.
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: I'd worry about Mike McDonald and his defense. Yeah, because
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: you didn't fare too well against them the last time. Woh,
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: that was kind of funny.
• 18:11
  Speaker 9: I did giggle.
• 18:12
  Speaker 3: It was hilarious. One of the funniest things I've ever said.
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: One of the funniest ever. All right, let's find out
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: what's on tap for today's show.
• 18:23
  Speaker 4: What's on te what's on TEP?
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: All right, Seahawks, We'll ow San Francisco on Saturday in
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: the divisional round of the playoffs.
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: Again.
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: The time will be determined. We will discuss this with
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: our experts. It is a Monday morning quarterback session today
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: here on Chuck and Buck. Greg Bell will be with
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: us at seven oh five. Hugh Mellon starting at eight
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: o'clock and Mike Homeran starting at nine o'clock. Of course,
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: r QV one Hugh Millan will be with us from
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: eight to ten, and most of the conversation, I'm sure
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: we'll be around the matchup with the San Francisco forty
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: nine ers and knowing our opponent and what that means,
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: So that will be the primary focus of today's conversation,
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: but we'll still talk about some other things as well.
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: The Denver Broncos will host Buffalo on Saturday. We'll go
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: over hol Buffalo and everyone else advanced over the weekend,
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: and case you missed it, I guess with cold Turkey Sandwich,
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: which is coming up at six point thirty, a board
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: of scores. Sunday it'll be the Rams and the Bears again,
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: we don't know the times of these, and then New
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: England will be hosting either the Texans or Steelers, who
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: are going to play tonight, so one more Wild Card
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: round game. It'll be in Pittsburgh this evening, the Texans
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: taking on the Steelers. George Kittle tore his achilles and
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: he is out for the playoffs and probably next season.
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: A lot of next season as well. We shall see
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: about that Matt Lafleur. According to Adam Schefter this morning,
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: it looks like they are trying to work out a
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: deal to keep him. That is surprising to me because
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: there was already some smoke that Green Bay had soured
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: a little bit on Matt Lafloor. And then after Saturday,
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: I would have thought, even if he was, you know,
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: even if he was in the best position possible, I
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: would have considered firing him after that game. And so
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: we'll see. But looks like Matt Lafleur might be staying
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: in Green Bay after all. And aj Brown after the
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: game yesterday, Nick Sirianni talked glowingly about his wide receiver
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: even though they had a spat on the sidelines, and
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: he played just an awful game for the Eagles yesterday.
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: But we shall see. Almost everybody seems to have arrived
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: at the conclusion that he will be gone from the
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: Philadelphia Eagles at some point this offseason. The National Championship
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: Game in college football will be a week from today
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: and it will be Indiana versus Miami College basketball, you
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: doub eighty one seventy four winners over Ohio State. Some
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: are calling it Danny Sprinkle's best win since becoming head
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: coach of the Huskies basketball program. Will there's no chance
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: to celebrate, no time, because you've got a really big
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: week this week. Michigan on Wednesday, one of the best
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: teams in the country, and Michigan State on Saturday are
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: coming to town, one of the best programs in the country.
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: So it's going to be a difficult week for the Huskies.
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: Hey man, when one of those two games and you've
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: had a hell of a week taking two out of
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: three from those three Big Ten opponents, Krake and have
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: now lost two straight games. They are going to play
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: tonight at four o'clock against the New York Rangers. And
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: Alex Bregman signed over the weekend with the Chicago Cubs
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: to kind of unclog the stove, but nothing else has
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: happened since, including for the Mariners. If you do want
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: to check out the latest Stove podcast, it is available
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: on our website ninety three to three khr dot com.
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: With myself and anders Hurst.
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: Coming up next though, we'll go through the weekend games
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: and the National Football League. It's time for a cold
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: turkey sandwich. A board of scores right here on Chucking
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: Buck Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM.
• 22:10
  Speaker 10: Forty three seconds left, San Francisco leads to twenty three
• 22:13
  Speaker 10: to nineteen. Hurts shuck up, Brown goes in motion to
• 22:17
  Speaker 10: the outside, takes the snot Hurts steps up, Hurts fires.
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: Over the middle into a crowd. It's broken up.
• 22:23
  Speaker 10: Forty nine Ers come up big incomplete. Kendricks gets a
• 22:29
  Speaker 10: piece and the Eagles turn it over on downs. San
• 22:33
  Speaker 10: Francisco takes over and they're forty seconds away from a victory.
• 22:38
  Speaker 10: The defending Super Bowl champions come up empty on fourth down.
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: All the Eagles are eliminated.
• 22:49
  Speaker 3: So the throne has been vacated.
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: How about that the next champ will be a new
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: champ in the National Football League.
• 22:57
  Speaker 3: The Eagles will not repeat.
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: They lost yesterday to the San Francisco forty nine ers,
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: and all the games were pretty thrilling, but the final
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: score there twenty three to nineteen in favor of the
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: forty nine ers. Therefore, we now know who the Seahawks
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: will play in the Divisional round of the playoffs. The
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: Seahawks on by this week, just sitting there and waiting
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: for everything to spill out. San Francisco wins.
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: They are the.
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: Lowest seed to advance to the next round, which means
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: you reshuffle all of the matchups and that will leave
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: the forty nine ers at the Seahawks this weekend, the
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: sixth seed versus the one seed, so we have to
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: face the same team in back to back games and
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: no problem, no sweat. The game will be played in Seattle.
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: Of course it'll be played on Saturday. We still don't
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: know the time for kickoff. That will be determined at
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: some point this evening, it sounds like, but that's where
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: our frost Brewed Corps Light Choose Chill Monday headlines begin,
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: and of course the audio provided by west Wood One.
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: It's Chuck, Buck and Ashley with you. In two minutes,
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: Greg Bell, our Seahawks insider, will join us. Let's go
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: through the rest of your headlines. Though, you also saw
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: the Green Bay Packers lose to the Chicago Bears thirty
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: one to twenty seven, and the Rams did survive their
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: game in Caroline against the Panthers thirty four to thirty one.
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: So the Bears and the Rams will play in the
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: other NFC matchup on Sunday. In the AFC, the New
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: England Patriots sixteen to three winners over the Chargers last night,
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: and so the Patriots sit there and wait for the
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: winner of tonight's final wild Card round game. The Houston
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: Texans will be in Pittsburgh taking on the Steelers. The winner,
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: we'll be at New England next Sunday, and then on Saturday,
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: Denver will host the Buffalo Bills, who defeated the Jacksonville
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: Jaguars twenty seven to twenty four, and a back and
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: forth contest early on Sunday. So those are that's your
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: latest from the National Football League. The Green Bay Packers,
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: by the way, have said that they're trying to work
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: on Matt Lafleur coming back, which I think flies in
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: the face of logic, but they're working on bringing Lafleur
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: back as their head coach going forward. George Kittle suffered
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: an achilles injury and sounds like a pretty serious one.
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: Certainly he will not be available for them the rest
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: of the postseason, which will of course last one game.
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: So no George Kittle this Saturday against the forty nine Ers.
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: College football, our national championship game will be played next Monday.
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: It'll be the Indiana Hoosiers against the Miami Hurricanes College
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: Hoops U Dubs maybe their biggest win since Danny Sprinkle
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: took over as head coach. They won eighty one seventy
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: four over Ohio State yesterday and now get ready for
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: Michigan and Michigan State coming to town this week. Michigan
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: on Wednesday, Michigan State on Saturday. Kraken suddenly have lost
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: two consecutive games. They'll be on the road starting tonight
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: in New York against the Rangers. They'll drop the puck
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: there at four o'clock. And those are your Frost Brewed
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: cors Light Choose Chill headlines.
• 26:12
  Speaker 3: Let's talk to Greg with the bell tolls.
• 26:15
  Speaker 4: It must be seven o'clock and time for twelfth Man

  Speaker 4: News with Greg Bell. Brought to you by Coppola Diamond Collection, Prosecco,
• 26:23

• 26:32
  Speaker 4: with twelfth Man News, here's Greg Bell with Chuck and
• 26:35
  Speaker 4: BT Morning.
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: Greg. Good morning, well, welcome to the NFC West Invitational.
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: As it looks like the Seahawks, if we're going to
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: get to the Super Bowl, will have to be both
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: the forty nine ers and possibly the Rams for a
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: second time this year. How do you think. How do
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: you think Mike McDonald feels about the draw.
• 26:56
  Speaker 11: Right, likes to be home, he likes having the week off,
• 26:59
  Speaker 11: and from a planning game planning standpoint, this is pretty
• 27:03
  Speaker 11: idyllic that they just played this team. This is the
• 27:07
  Speaker 11: first time since the early nineties that the Seahawks had
• 27:09
  Speaker 11: played back to back games against the same opponent.
• 27:13
  Speaker 7: Same thing.
• 27:13
  Speaker 11: Last time thirty some years ago, they had a bye
• 27:16
  Speaker 11: week between two games against the Chargers in the old
• 27:19
  Speaker 11: AFC West. It's very unique, little funky, as Mike McDonald
• 27:24
  Speaker 11: told NBC last night at the halftime in the night game.
• 27:27
  Speaker 11: But that will be much different from San Francisco, and
• 27:31
  Speaker 11: it'll be much different from McDonald and the Seahawks.
• 27:35
  Speaker 7: It is unique to play the same team two times
• 27:38
  Speaker 7: in a row.
• 27:40
  Speaker 11: Honestly, I as great as the Seahawks defense was that night,
• 27:44
  Speaker 11: you probably can't expect him to hold him to one
• 27:47
  Speaker 11: hundred and twenty five yards and three points again. But
• 27:51
  Speaker 11: San Francisco is decimated by the injuries you mentioned George
• 27:54
  Speaker 11: Kittle there off the top. Yet another loss for them.
• 27:56
  Speaker 11: They did get Trent Williams back. That'll be one difference
• 27:59
  Speaker 11: from the Week eighteen game. William's played despite warnings that
• 28:04
  Speaker 11: if he played on that hamstring he might injure it
• 28:06
  Speaker 11: and rip it completely worse and injured even worse.
• 28:10
  Speaker 7: And it looks like he.
• 28:10
  Speaker 11: Came out of the game in Philadelphia, okay. For him
• 28:13
  Speaker 11: to play at left tackle, that's a big addition for
• 28:15
  Speaker 11: San Francisco, but a big, big, big subjection to not
• 28:18
  Speaker 11: have George Kittle.
• 28:20
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, I understand one hundred percent, no matter
• 28:23
  Speaker 5: how dominant you were, it doesn't carry over. And yet
• 28:27
  Speaker 5: you almost feel like I would almost feel like if
• 28:29
  Speaker 5: I'm Mike McDonald that I got to make sure my
• 28:32
  Speaker 5: guys get that. I mean, is there any any thought of,
• 28:35
  Speaker 5: you know, not overlooking an opponent that you know that
• 28:38
  Speaker 5: they understand how good the Niners could be, but at
• 28:41
  Speaker 5: the same time, they're human, and that you know, any
• 28:44
  Speaker 5: chance that they're that He's having to make a concerted
• 28:47
  Speaker 5: effort like, hey boys, yeah, we just absolutely dominated this team,
• 28:50
  Speaker 5: but we got to go do it again.
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: We can't just expect that it's going to happen.
• 28:55
  Speaker 7: I don't think so, Bucky.
• 28:56
  Speaker 11: They are so wedded to the processing and McDonald has
• 29:00
  Speaker 11: has gotten the guys to see what happens when they
• 29:03
  Speaker 11: focus inwardly on themselves and doing the same thing every week,
• 29:08
  Speaker 11: preparing the same way and working the game plan. As
• 29:11
  Speaker 11: the coaches have gotten in the McDonald and the defensive,
• 29:16
  Speaker 11: they are really inwardly focused, and it's almost like the opponent,
• 29:22
  Speaker 11: not that it doesn't matter, but because the process is
• 29:25
  Speaker 11: the same every week, there's a consistency in no matter
• 29:28
  Speaker 11: who they're playing, that they had the same approach. And
• 29:32
  Speaker 11: I would think that's the inward look that would be
• 29:35
  Speaker 11: even more intense this week and for however long Seahawks
• 29:38
  Speaker 11: are playing playoff games. McDonald's way is obviously working, and
• 29:43
  Speaker 11: the Seahawks, the players half absolute buy in for two
• 29:48
  Speaker 11: seasons now. This guy has won twenty five games, and
• 29:52
  Speaker 11: he's must be doing something right. So I don't think so.
• 29:58
  Speaker 11: I do think it's somewhat advantageous for the defense, especially
• 30:04
  Speaker 11: to be playing the forty nine ers first and then
• 30:07
  Speaker 11: the Rams, and I do think the Rams will beat Chicago.
• 30:11
  Speaker 11: Something's happened to the Rams. Something's happened to Matthew Stafford.
• 30:14
  Speaker 11: In the last four or five weeks. His accuracy has
• 30:17
  Speaker 11: gone way down. I mean he was under I think
• 30:19
  Speaker 11: he finished under fifty percent against Carolina, who did not
• 30:23
  Speaker 11: have a great pass defense, And it was alarming to
• 30:27
  Speaker 11: watch some of the throws he made against the Panthers.
• 30:30
  Speaker 11: The Panthers crowded the receivers and just challenged those guys,
• 30:34
  Speaker 11: and Nikoua gout as across the middle a few times
• 30:36
  Speaker 11: like he did against Seattle, but there were many open
• 30:39
  Speaker 11: receivers that he flat missed. Now, he came up big
• 30:43
  Speaker 11: in the last drive and Kobe Parkinson with a great
• 30:45
  Speaker 11: catch there. But in the Rams defense as well, has
• 30:49
  Speaker 11: really changed from where they were to give up all
• 30:53
  Speaker 11: the points they did at Carolina thirty plus. Again, this
• 30:58
  Speaker 11: is a different Rams team than even the one they
• 31:00
  Speaker 11: the Seahawks played even a month, three or four weeks ago.
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Nikua doesn't break up that short fire interception right
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: in the end zone and Nikola has knocked it right
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: out of his arms. I mean, we might we might
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: not we be we might be preparing for you know,
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: Panthers bears. On On Sunday, Greg Bell is with US
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: our Seahawks insider from the News Tribune. You can follow
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: Matt g bel Seattle on X and of course around
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: the clock coverage of the Seahawks there at the News Tribune.
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: I think this probably needs to be explained. I don't
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: know why Kyle Shanahan was sort of trying to position
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: his team to be playing on Sunday. I do think it,
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: you know, it does logically make more sense that the
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: Bears Rams play on Saturday and the forty nine ers
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: in the playoffs get a full week's rest and they
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: play on Sunday like the Rams and the Bears are
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: going to get especially going up against the team that's
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: on by But I do think Gregg, it needs to
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: be explained for those that don't understand that this was
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: put in place by the National Football League long before
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: the results this weekend.
• 32:05
  Speaker 11: Yes, I wrote this last week. We talked about this
• 32:08
  Speaker 11: last week. The NFL when it can, and when it
• 32:12
  Speaker 11: can is when the one seeds don't have to play
• 32:14
  Speaker 11: the team that played on Monday night. The NFL puts
• 32:18
  Speaker 11: the one seeds on Saturday. Why do they do that?
• 32:21
  Speaker 11: One It doesn't really matter Saturday or Sunday for the
• 32:24
  Speaker 11: team that's the one seed because they have coming off
• 32:25
  Speaker 11: the buy. But it's for the backside of that they
• 32:29
  Speaker 11: want to give the one seed every advantage into a
• 32:32
  Speaker 11: conference championship game, and if the one seed wins that
• 32:34
  Speaker 11: home game in the divisional round, they want to reward
• 32:37
  Speaker 11: the one seed of having an extra day eight days
• 32:39
  Speaker 11: between the divisional round and the conference championship. Shanahan knew
• 32:44
  Speaker 11: that the last forty years, twenty five plus times the
• 32:50
  Speaker 11: one seeds have played on Saturday. There's been a one
• 32:53
  Speaker 11: seed play on Saturday every year of the last nine years.
• 32:56
  Speaker 11: Most times it's two. But when they've expanded the Wildcard
• 32:59
  Speaker 11: round to the Monday night, then they had to make
• 33:02
  Speaker 11: some concessions because you can't put the Monday team on
• 33:04
  Speaker 11: a Saturday game. So the one team's one seeds have
• 33:06
  Speaker 11: played some Sunday games recently, but by and large, this
• 33:10
  Speaker 11: is what the NFL does.
• 33:11
  Speaker 7: This is the.
• 33:11
  Speaker 11: Reward for being a one seed. And frankly, the forty
• 33:14
  Speaker 11: nine ers have nothing to complain about because they had
• 33:16
  Speaker 11: a chance to win the one seed and they didn't
• 33:18
  Speaker 11: get it done. But they had a chance to be
• 33:20
  Speaker 11: in the same situation the Seahorwks now are.
• 33:22
  Speaker 7: By the way, the.
• 33:23
  Speaker 11: Seahawks did the same thing playing San Francisco in Week eighteen.
• 33:27
  Speaker 11: They had a Saturday the NFL put them on a
• 33:29
  Speaker 11: Saturday for coming off this road game at Carolina. Right,
• 33:36
  Speaker 11: it's the same situation. Seahawks had a road game on Sunday,
• 33:40
  Speaker 11: then they had to go back across the country and
• 33:42
  Speaker 11: play a Saturday game against San Francisco. So yeah, if
• 33:47
  Speaker 11: you don't like it, win the game, be the one seed,
• 33:49
  Speaker 11: and then you don't, you get the spoils. They're not
• 33:51
  Speaker 11: gonna make it. They're not gonna put this way. The
• 33:53
  Speaker 11: NFL is not going to give the.
• 33:56
  Speaker 7: Advantage to a six seed over a one seed. Just darn't.
• 33:59
  Speaker 7: That's how you are the perks of being a one.
• 34:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 34:03
  Speaker 5: I mean with George Kittle going down, that's got to
• 34:06
  Speaker 5: be a big, huge blow to them. I mean, his
• 34:09
  Speaker 5: production's one thing. Kind of the attitude of the heart
• 34:12
  Speaker 5: and soul that he brings to the squad is another.
• 34:15
  Speaker 5: I mean, is this just panning out, Not that anybody's
• 34:18
  Speaker 5: wishing injury upon anybody. Is this panning out exactly the
• 34:20
  Speaker 5: way that you would think the Seahawks would like. I mean,
• 34:23
  Speaker 5: if it's if he's gone, it feels like you just
• 34:26
  Speaker 5: continue to figure out a way to shut down Christian
• 34:29
  Speaker 5: McCaffrey and limit his damage that he can do to you,
• 34:32
  Speaker 5: and maybe they don't have a ton else to do offensively.
• 34:37
  Speaker 7: Not necessarily.
• 34:38
  Speaker 11: I mean, Perty won that game yesterday. I was I
• 34:41
  Speaker 11: looked it up in the middle of the fourth quarter.
• 34:43
  Speaker 11: I said, why are they not giving McCaffrey the ball?
• 34:45
  Speaker 11: At one point, the first forty seven players that the
• 34:48
  Speaker 11: forty nine ers ran yesterday, only thirteen were.
• 34:50
  Speaker 7: Runs by McCaffrey.
• 34:52
  Speaker 11: That's my practice to me, I would give the ball
• 34:55
  Speaker 11: twenty plus times to McCaffrey, no matter what the time.
• 34:57
  Speaker 7: And score was.
• 34:59
  Speaker 11: But then they still after I looked that up, then
• 35:01
  Speaker 11: they started giving him the ball in the pass game,
• 35:03
  Speaker 11: and you saw the touchdown the out route to the
• 35:05
  Speaker 11: end route for the score became the winning touchdown to
• 35:07
  Speaker 11: the McCaffrey. Purty can still beat you, but Perdy can
• 35:11
  Speaker 11: still make some really puzzling throws in the coverage, like
• 35:13
  Speaker 11: he did yesterday a couple times. And he had done
• 35:16
  Speaker 11: that every single game I've watched him, including against the Seahawks,
• 35:20
  Speaker 11: foremost against the Seahawks. So but he also has a
• 35:23
  Speaker 11: very high ceiling and makes some really contested throws that
• 35:27
  Speaker 11: gets the forty nine Ers out of problems. San Francisco
• 35:30
  Speaker 11: has been very good this year on third down, both
• 35:32
  Speaker 11: offensively and defensively. That has the Seahawks attention like it
• 35:36
  Speaker 11: did in Week eighteen. Kittle's been injured for much of
• 35:40
  Speaker 11: this season, that has not kept the forty nine Ers
• 35:45
  Speaker 11: from winning thirteen games. Perty's almost a wild card to me.
• 35:50
  Speaker 11: He can be very.
• 35:51
  Speaker 7: Good and carry this team.
• 35:53
  Speaker 11: He can also be bad and throw really puzzling interceptions.
• 35:58
  Speaker 11: If I was San Francisco watching them like I have
• 36:00
  Speaker 11: for years, I'd give it to McCaffrey almost every time.
• 36:03
  Speaker 11: I mean, he is a dynamic player, especially in the
• 36:06
  Speaker 11: open field. Of course, we've talked about this. The Seahawks
• 36:09
  Speaker 11: think they have an anecdote to him that nobody else does.
• 36:12
  Speaker 7: And his name is NICKI mc worry.
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: Greg bellis with US Seahawks Insider, joining us right here
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: on this Monday morning on Chuck and Buck, and we
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: now know the opponent for the seahawks first playoff game
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: here of twenty twenty five, twenty twenty six, it will
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: be the San Francisco forty nine Ers. They'll come to Seattle.
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: They will play on Saturday. We still don't know the
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: time of that game, but should a little bit later
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: on today all right, so Seahawks obviously get the buy
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: and I'm assuming that you know the injuries that whoever
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: needed healed up has had the time to get healed up.
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: Of what is this going to do for the Seahawks
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: and their medical tents to have two full weeks off
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: before they play this game on Saturday.
• 36:58
  Speaker 7: Tick.
• 36:58
  Speaker 11: It certainly helps Charles crost off the hamstring issue. He
• 37:01
  Speaker 11: looked pretty spry running around the field in the rain
• 37:04
  Speaker 11: last week during the two practices they had. Kobe Bryant's
• 37:07
  Speaker 11: still the issue, still the question mark from the knee
• 37:09
  Speaker 11: injury he's missed the last few games, and McDonald has
• 37:13
  Speaker 11: been circumspect, to say the least about Kobe Bryant's availability
• 37:17
  Speaker 11: for this week. We'll see more when they really get
• 37:20
  Speaker 11: going on Wednesday and have to. They'll have a practice
• 37:23
  Speaker 11: report tomorrow for Saturday games. The league requires a Tuesday
• 37:26
  Speaker 11: practice report, But Bryant is the big question mark. They
• 37:30
  Speaker 11: still have George Hallani and Chas Surat on injured reserve.
• 37:34
  Speaker 11: They could bring them both back. They have two more
• 37:37
  Speaker 11: returned from IR slots that you gained for making the postseason.
• 37:43
  Speaker 11: But the big issue to me would be Kobe Bryant,
• 37:46
  Speaker 11: although Okata has played really well, no doubt, this is
• 37:50
  Speaker 11: yet another benefit for the one seed to get the
• 37:52
  Speaker 11: week off, and more than just the health. It's just
• 37:55
  Speaker 11: a simple math in fact that they only they have
• 37:57
  Speaker 11: to win one fewer games to get to the Super Bowl, right,
• 38:00
  Speaker 11: forty nine Ers have to win three road games and
• 38:02
  Speaker 11: the Seahawks have to win two home games, and that
• 38:06
  Speaker 11: is the biggest plus of winning the eight week eighteen game.
• 38:10
  Speaker 5: Yeah, obviously there's I mean, when it comes to Kobe Bryant,
• 38:12
  Speaker 5: I mean, he would be there, he wouldn't be the
• 38:14
  Speaker 5: starting guy if he wasn't better. But there's part of
• 38:17
  Speaker 5: me that does every game. When I watched Tyakota, Tyakota,
• 38:21
  Speaker 5: he seems like he's always at where the ball is.
• 38:24
  Speaker 3: At and making big plays. Am I Am I missing something?
• 38:27
  Speaker 11: His yes, no, you're not and his The gap he
• 38:31
  Speaker 11: had from Week one to Week eighteen against the forty
• 38:33
  Speaker 11: nine ers was amazing because in Week one when Okada
• 38:37
  Speaker 11: had to come in when Nick Emnworri got her and
• 38:39
  Speaker 11: they were playing defense differently than they had Nick even
• 38:41
  Speaker 11: Worri more in base back in the back.
• 38:43
  Speaker 7: As the safety that first week.
• 38:46
  Speaker 11: As soon as Okada came in, Kyle Shanahan targeted him
• 38:48
  Speaker 11: with George Kittle for a first down on a touchdown.
• 38:50
  Speaker 11: Boom boom right away, And eventually they actually took.
• 38:53
  Speaker 7: Tyle Katta out of that game.
• 38:55
  Speaker 11: And then in Week eighteen, Okada starts and was a
• 38:58
  Speaker 11: stud coming up really hard on runs, stopping McCaffrey and others,
• 39:04
  Speaker 11: tackles receivers immediately going down after catches. Yeah, he's been
• 39:10
  Speaker 11: really good, I mean phenomenally good at times, shore tackles
• 39:14
  Speaker 11: being one of the many good traits that he has,
• 39:17
  Speaker 11: maybe the most important one. By the way, this is
• 39:20
  Speaker 11: the first time in NFL history that two teams have
• 39:23
  Speaker 11: played Week one Week eighteen and in the playoffs book
• 39:26
  Speaker 11: getting the regular season. It's a very oddistcuted in the schedule.
• 39:29
  Speaker 11: But that's never happened in the history.
• 39:30
  Speaker 7: Of the league.
• 39:32
  Speaker 11: Do you hear all the time about playing a team
• 39:34
  Speaker 11: for the third time and how tricky that is, But
• 39:36
  Speaker 11: it's never happened like this. But Yeah, to your point, Bucky,
• 39:40
  Speaker 11: Tyl Katta is not just some scrap heap fill in
• 39:43
  Speaker 11: they're in trouble. He's really proven himself of the course
• 39:47
  Speaker 11: of the season.
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson, Bucky was telling me. Lent a little bit
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: to this Clint Kubiak story this week. Apparently Lamar gave
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: him his stamp of approval publicly. I mean, how come implicated? Potentially?
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: Could this get getting ready for the playoffs and Clint
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: Kubiak his name being surfaced out there as a head
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: coaching candidate.
• 40:09
  Speaker 11: Well, the NFL tries to make it not complicated now
• 40:11
  Speaker 11: that we're in divisional game week. The rules are that
• 40:14
  Speaker 11: the teams can interview a guy on a one seed
• 40:18
  Speaker 11: during the bye week, the wild card week by, and
• 40:22
  Speaker 11: then once that weekend ends, he's off limits. And he's
• 40:25
  Speaker 11: off limits as of today. The Seahawks are beginning their
• 40:28
  Speaker 11: full preparations today. Actually, the coaches got back in the
• 40:31
  Speaker 11: building last night once they found out who they were
• 40:33
  Speaker 11: going to play.
• 40:35
  Speaker 7: So he is not able to.
• 40:37
  Speaker 11: Be talked to at least until the end of the
• 40:39
  Speaker 11: division round. If the Seahawks lose, he can be interviewed
• 40:42
  Speaker 11: again starting on January nineteenth. The Seahawks win, they can't
• 40:46
  Speaker 11: talk to him until the day for January twenty six,
• 40:52
  Speaker 11: which is day after the conference championship games, which is
• 40:55
  Speaker 11: the bye week.
• 40:55
  Speaker 7: Before the two week break before the Super Bowl.
• 40:58
  Speaker 11: So while last week was clunky and somewhat inconvenient. The
• 41:03
  Speaker 11: Seahawks only practiced twice and they had days off Friday Saturday.
• 41:07
  Speaker 11: The coaches and the players are off Friday Saturday, players
• 41:10
  Speaker 11: off Sunday too, And so he got six of his
• 41:13
  Speaker 11: interviews done in that Friday and Saturday, all six of them,
• 41:16
  Speaker 11: so he didn't miss any actual daytime. Now, let's not
• 41:20
  Speaker 11: be ignorant. And of course he was preparing all week
• 41:22
  Speaker 11: for these interviews. You don't just wake up and start
• 41:24
  Speaker 11: doing interviews for your head coaching job and even wanting
• 41:27
  Speaker 11: your whole career. And that was something of a distraction.
• 41:30
  Speaker 11: But the league is trying.
• 41:31
  Speaker 7: To back those guys off. Now, those teams off this week.
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: All right, Well, it looks like great weather coming up
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: on say and probably get it like a suntand.
• 41:40
  Speaker 7: Yeah, the sun might actually be out.
• 41:42
  Speaker 3: How about that?
• 41:44
  Speaker 7: Crazy? It would either be one thirty or five.
• 41:48
  Speaker 11: Most people around the Seahawks inside the building think the
• 41:51
  Speaker 11: administrators anyway, think it's going to be five. But there
• 41:55
  Speaker 11: is some primetime Lord Josh Allen going into Denver.
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: But yeah, it Saturday, all right, sounds great, thank you, Sarah.
• 42:03
  Speaker 3: We'll have all week to discuss it.
• 42:05
  Speaker 7: Happy Monday.
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: Thank you Greg Bell, our Seahawks insider joining us right
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: here on Chucking Buck in the morning. His segment brought
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: to you by Coppola Diamond Prosecco. Pop the bubbly and
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: bring the sparkle. It's game Day people. Copola Diamond Collection
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: Prosecco is crisp, refreshing with notes of apple citrus and
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: also white peach from kickoff to the final whistle. It
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: keeps the celebration going Game Day Bubbles only with Coppola
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: Diamond Prosecco coming up next. You know how we do this.
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: We always uh you know, it's it's coaching carousel time.
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: And I only use that phrase because so many people
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: use it.
• 42:42
  Speaker 3: I hate it.
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: I don't like that cliche, and so I allow you
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: to come up with the name of the segment whenever
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: we update you on coaching rumors. So I don't care
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: what it is. I'm going to take the first suggestion.
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: Please make it as random as possible. At four nine,
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: four five to one. There's not gonna be any discrimination.
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: I mean, I can't use anything filthy on our airwaves,
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: but I'm pretty much gonna take the first recommendation for
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: what we should call our coaching Carousel segment this offseason,
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: So taking suggestions at four nine, four, five to one
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: and launching the first episode of whatever you might call
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: it Next Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM.
• 43:24
  Speaker 3: That's right, I like it. I like it.
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: Chuck Buck and Ashley, whether you we are Monday Morning quarterbacking. Yeah,
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: the Seahawks didn't play this weekend, but my goodness, we
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: now know the opponent for the divisional round. It will
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: be the San Francisco forty nine Ers. I'm pretty sure
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: you're all familiar with them. Yes, the last time these
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: two teams faced, the Seahawks mack them down thirteen to three.
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: But now it matters. This is the third game, third
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: matchup of the year. They split the first two, and
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: so whoever wins the series advances on obviously in the
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: NFL playoffs, And so we're going full scale Monday Morning
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: quarterback this week morning. Mike Holmgren is going to join
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: us at nine o'clock. Hugh Millen is with us right now,
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: and Hugh, I mean, I think when you think of
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: the forty nine Ers, the first player you probably think
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: of is Christian McCaffrey and He's still one heck of
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: a weapon, but they've not run the ball effectively in
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: San Francisco this year, even yesterday with a win over
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: the Eagles. You know, three point two yards per carry
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: from McCaffrey. He's become more of a weapon in the
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: passing game than he is in the running game these days.
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: You marry that with how soundly the Seahawks have stopped
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: the run this year. I mean, that's got to be
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: one area where we feel good in this matchup on Saturday.
• 44:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah, one hundred.
• 44:40
  Speaker 8: Percent that the Seahawks if you consider all the phases,
• 44:45
  Speaker 8: the five phases that I've just described, I think run
• 44:49
  Speaker 8: defense and special teams have been their most consistent phase.
• 44:53
  Speaker 8: And Seattle's number one in the NFL and San Francisco
• 44:58
  Speaker 8: is thirtieth, three point eight year ards per attempt. And
• 45:01
  Speaker 8: for McCaffrey, you know, he had six catches against the Seahawks,
• 45:06
  Speaker 8: but just fifteen yards after the catch, and that was pivotal.
• 45:11
  Speaker 8: He's a guy that that for his career has averaged
• 45:14
  Speaker 8: seven point seven yards after the cats. But I think
• 45:18
  Speaker 8: a guy that really deserves a lot of accolades. I
• 45:22
  Speaker 8: know we've been talking a lot about him Byron Murphy.
• 45:26
  Speaker 8: Last year, I talked more about it because it was
• 45:28
  Speaker 8: so unusual. But that idea that he goes down to
• 45:31
  Speaker 8: one knee when he's getting double team Greg has been
• 45:34
  Speaker 8: right to to note that as well. It's been an
• 45:37
  Speaker 8: important part of his game. And yet here's another facet
• 45:42
  Speaker 8: because he's very key. Coming out of Texas, he only
• 45:47
  Speaker 8: played four hundred and thirty seven snaps out of nine
• 45:50
  Speaker 8: on one he's he had forty forty eight and a
• 45:52
  Speaker 8: half percent of the snaps for Texas. I remember even
• 45:56
  Speaker 8: before he was dropped by Seattle, that was a thing,
• 45:59
  Speaker 8: what's his stamina? And we talked about that after he drafted. Well,
• 46:03
  Speaker 8: let's take a peek at his STANMA then his rookie
• 46:06
  Speaker 8: year four and fifty four and fifty eight snaps, and
• 46:10
  Speaker 8: that was forty three percent this year and I had
• 46:13
  Speaker 8: to triple check it. But you know that up to
• 46:15
  Speaker 8: this date, the Seahawks defense had the exact same number
• 46:19
  Speaker 8: of snaps last season as this season as one thousand
• 46:22
  Speaker 8: and sixty five exact same number at any rate, the
• 46:28
  Speaker 8: defensively Byron Murphy, he's up to seventy three and a
• 46:33
  Speaker 8: half percent of this now he's up to seven hundred
• 46:35
  Speaker 8: and eighty three snaps, So at any days kudus to
• 46:38
  Speaker 8: him that he's taken on that workload.
• 46:40
  Speaker 5: Yeah, obviously, I mean he's doing his part. The whole
• 46:43
  Speaker 5: d line just front, the whole defense in general is
• 46:46
  Speaker 5: something that's amazing. But I mean, is it something that's
• 46:50
  Speaker 5: it's obviously possible. Is it probable that this Seahawks defense
• 46:54
  Speaker 5: can can have the same type of performance because it
• 46:57
  Speaker 5: was it was kind of immaculate. I mean it was
• 47:00
  Speaker 5: it was not just that they were stifling. It wasn't
• 47:02
  Speaker 5: just that they were making everything uncomfortable. Their tackling was
• 47:05
  Speaker 5: near perfect. Like you just kind of mentioned that Christian
• 47:08
  Speaker 5: McCaffrey cut six balls but had fifteen yards after the catch.
• 47:11
  Speaker 5: I mean, if you can get him down six feet
• 47:13
  Speaker 5: after he catches the ball every single time, yep, where
• 47:16
  Speaker 5: he can't break anything. Is that something that you see
• 47:19
  Speaker 5: that's repeatable to have that good of a performance, Because
• 47:22
  Speaker 5: to me, my thought would be like with a lot
• 47:25
  Speaker 5: of guys of Christian McCaffrey's caliber, like you don't stop im.
• 47:28
  Speaker 5: You just hope to contain him, even though the last
• 47:30
  Speaker 5: time they faced him they basically stopped him.
• 47:33
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I think certainly Mike McDonald feels like he can.
• 47:37
  Speaker 8: I think stopping the run is where it starts. And
• 47:40
  Speaker 8: in the last game forty nine or running backs, there
• 47:44
  Speaker 8: was ten carries and nine of them that they had
• 47:50
  Speaker 8: a too high shell, meaning they were saying to the
• 47:52
  Speaker 8: forty nine ers, we're playing pass defense. We can stop
• 47:56
  Speaker 8: the run with just seven. And in situations where they
• 48:03
  Speaker 8: the forty nine ers either were in twenty one personnel
• 48:07
  Speaker 8: that's two running backs, one tight end, or twenty two personnel,
• 48:11
  Speaker 8: they tried to load up and go twenty two personnel,
• 48:14
  Speaker 8: and Seattle stayed in nickel. They didn't play a single
• 48:17
  Speaker 8: Seattle did not play a single down of base defense
• 48:22
  Speaker 8: against the forty nine ers. No matter how heavy the
• 48:25
  Speaker 8: forty nine ers tried to play, the Seattle just kept
• 48:28
  Speaker 8: playing with nickel because they believe so much in nickim
• 48:31
  Speaker 8: and worry. And now there was times when they played
• 48:34
  Speaker 8: what's called eleven personnel, one running back, one tight end
• 48:38
  Speaker 8: and three receivers Seattle they went about sixty percent in
• 48:45
  Speaker 8: dime and forty percent in nickel. But the point is
• 48:47
  Speaker 8: Seattle played from a personnel standpoint very light, and also
• 48:53
  Speaker 8: from a structure standpoint, they went very light. So you
• 48:56
  Speaker 8: were you were giving you were already if you just
• 49:00
  Speaker 8: go by the what should be the template or the
• 49:04
  Speaker 8: general axioms of football. Seattle was telling San Francisco, go ahead,
• 49:12
  Speaker 8: all these indicators should be that you can run the football.
• 49:15
  Speaker 8: And yet with seven guys with a light personnel, nick
• 49:19
  Speaker 8: emm and Worry, they were able to stop the Not
• 49:22
  Speaker 8: only were they able to stop the run, those running
• 49:26
  Speaker 8: backs had eight plays thirty thirty two yards. No, no, no,
• 49:34
  Speaker 8: so yeah start sorry, I said ten plays. I was
• 49:37
  Speaker 8: looking at another stat. Ten runs to running backs thirty
• 49:40
  Speaker 8: two yards, and in that there wasn't a single safety
• 49:48
  Speaker 8: or corner that made a tackle. Now, Nick Amm and Worry,
• 49:52
  Speaker 8: there's an asterisk of that in that particular stat. I'm
• 49:56
  Speaker 8: counting Nick m and Worry as a sam linebacker because
• 49:59
  Speaker 8: that that's how he's aligned. He's a nickel and he
• 50:01
  Speaker 8: just plays like an outside linebacker.
• 50:03
  Speaker 7: Point.
• 50:04
  Speaker 8: I don't know, I don't know if I'm conveying this, Seattle.
• 50:08
  Speaker 8: They they basically said to San Francisco, we know that
• 50:12
  Speaker 8: that's your your brand, your mo is. You want you
• 50:16
  Speaker 8: want to get heavy. You got Kyle Yuchef. Kyle yu
• 50:19
  Speaker 8: Chef is ten time pro bowler. There's a damn good
• 50:22
  Speaker 8: chance he's going to the Hall of Fame.
• 50:24
  Speaker 1: Uh as a.
• 50:25
  Speaker 3: Full back, that's who you are.
• 50:27
  Speaker 8: And yet we're not gonna try and stack and play
• 50:30
  Speaker 8: hardball with our alignment nor our personnel. We can, we can,
• 50:34
  Speaker 8: we can show you a softball look, and yet will
• 50:37
  Speaker 8: still stop you. I hope that point's clear because that's
• 50:40
  Speaker 8: the foundation of where everything starts, because then they can
• 50:43
  Speaker 8: play coverage and they can hold rock Purdy to what
• 50:46
  Speaker 8: he have one hundred and twenty seven yards.
• 50:49
  Speaker 3: So is that repeatable?
• 50:51
  Speaker 8: I would say as a general rule, I think so
• 50:56
  Speaker 8: because of how how well they dominated. Now, I don't
• 51:00
  Speaker 8: think they're going to have those type of numbers, No way,
• 51:03
  Speaker 8: I don't think that's the sammers is gonna have three points,
• 51:05
  Speaker 8: one hundred and seventy three yards and nine first downs. Again,
• 51:09
  Speaker 8: all of those are career lows for Mike excuse me,
• 51:12
  Speaker 8: Kyle Shanahan. Mike's sun as a head coach in this league. So,
• 51:18
  Speaker 8: uh yeah, maybe I'm kind of straddling the fence on that.
• 51:21
  Speaker 8: I think as a general yes, but not to that extent.
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: How about that, I think those stats are hilarious, Yeahhan
• 51:31
  Speaker 1: struggling that much in his last game. Just really great
• 51:35
  Speaker 1: material right there. Hugh Millan is with us. I do
• 51:38
  Speaker 1: want to get your thoughts, like anything that over everything
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: else that might have stood out to you about this weekend,
• 51:45
  Speaker 1: But I also want to ask you about the thing
• 51:47
  Speaker 1: that stood out to me about this weekend in the NFL,
• 51:50
  Speaker 1: how physical everything was. That's the biggest beating I've seen
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: Drake may take. That's the biggest beating I've seen Trevor
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: Lawrence take. That's the biggest beating I've seen Josh Allen take.
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: I've seen Justin Herbert take a beating every week since
• 52:03
  Speaker 1: he came into the league, and I'm not sure I
• 52:05
  Speaker 1: want to see many more of that because it is
• 52:08
  Speaker 1: just it's still a level now where I don't even
• 52:10
  Speaker 1: enjoy watching Justin Herbert play football anymore because he takes
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: such a beating.
• 52:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I agree.
• 52:17
  Speaker 8: I don't know him well, but my son played at
• 52:21
  Speaker 8: Oregon and he was roommates with Patrick, Justin's younger brother,
• 52:24
  Speaker 8: so he'd go over to.
• 52:27
  Speaker 3: On Monday night football.
• 52:29
  Speaker 8: They'd all be in the hot tub watching money and football,
• 52:32
  Speaker 8: and and my son was at Thanksgiving dinner for a
• 52:34
  Speaker 8: couple of times. So I've got to know Justin he
• 52:37
  Speaker 8: took my kid under his wing. I don't know him well,
• 52:39
  Speaker 8: but he's one of the finest human beings I've ever known.
• 52:42
  Speaker 8: This guy was an academic heisman molecular biology. All the
• 52:45
  Speaker 8: dudes on the team were like, bro, what are you
• 52:48
  Speaker 8: studying like that? You're going to the league, right, But
• 52:51
  Speaker 8: he just had there's a certain nature to him, very humble,
• 52:55
  Speaker 8: almost too quiet, almost too humble right to be a
• 52:58
  Speaker 8: professional quarterback. But yeah, it's sad to see him take
• 53:01
  Speaker 8: that beating. And I think chuck for quarterbacks that you're
• 53:06
  Speaker 8: seeing these beatings because there's so many simulated pressures there.
• 53:10
  Speaker 8: You know, it's not just for defensive linemen where everybody
• 53:14
  Speaker 8: knows who who you're rushing, you might get a stunt.
• 53:16
  Speaker 8: They're they're bringing guys from everywhere, but they're dropping guys
• 53:20
  Speaker 8: off and so in the old day there was a
• 53:22
  Speaker 8: period where where you bring everybody, it was risky because
• 53:24
  Speaker 8: you're playing man man behind it, often without a free safety.
• 53:28
  Speaker 8: Now they're bringing they're bringing guys from everywhere, dropping defensive
• 53:33
  Speaker 8: linemen into every and yet they're playing zones behind it.
• 53:36
  Speaker 8: Generally a three D three under but Mike McDonald has
• 53:38
  Speaker 8: mastered the two deep. Four hundred people are copying that.
• 53:41
  Speaker 8: There's what's called a two cats or palms or trigger
• 53:46
  Speaker 8: with the corners, where they say, hey, I'm gonna go
• 53:48
  Speaker 8: deep if everybody's deep, but if the slot guy or
• 53:50
  Speaker 8: or somebody comes in the flat, then I'm gonna trigger
• 53:52
  Speaker 8: into the flat. There's some complexity to these zone pressures
• 53:56
  Speaker 8: and offensive line. They're just having a hard time sorting
• 54:01
  Speaker 8: it out. But quickly you asked me one impression from
• 54:05
  Speaker 8: the game, how about Josh Allen When the Bills were trailing,
• 54:10
  Speaker 8: he was fourteen of sixteen with one hundred and thirty
• 54:14
  Speaker 8: three passer rating and three total touchdowns. That final drive
• 54:18
  Speaker 8: he was five for five. He was responsible for sixty
• 54:22
  Speaker 8: five of the sixty six yards. Like Josh Allen is,
• 54:27
  Speaker 8: we're watching one of the greatest football players who has
• 54:30
  Speaker 8: ever played the game. In my opinion, I think it's
• 54:34
  Speaker 8: staggering how talented he is. I'm a huge John Elway fan,
• 54:38
  Speaker 8: played behind him, but I think he's better than John Elwack.
• 54:42
  Speaker 8: I think that he I mean, look at he still
• 54:45
  Speaker 8: is the author of the greatest game by a quarterback
• 54:48
  Speaker 8: I have ever seen in a loss in a playoff
• 54:51
  Speaker 8: game that Kansas City, and that includes Tom Brady throwing
• 54:54
  Speaker 8: for five hundred and I believe five hundred and five
• 54:56
  Speaker 8: in the Super Bowl when they lost to the Eagles.
• 55:00
  Speaker 8: I mean, I was in the AFC's with the the Booth,
• 55:03
  Speaker 8: the Patriots and the and the uh uh and the Dolphins.
• 55:07
  Speaker 8: So I did a lot of tape study of Jim Kelly,
• 55:10
  Speaker 8: and I think for the most part he deserving Hall
• 55:13
  Speaker 8: of Famer. I know him a little bit. I'm like,
• 55:15
  Speaker 8: I'm tough as hell, tough as hell Jim Kelly, So
• 55:18
  Speaker 8: he's in the Hall of Fame probably you know, maybe
• 55:21
  Speaker 8: a fringe Hall of Famer whatever. I think Josh Allen's
• 55:25
  Speaker 8: three times the quarterback Jim Kelly is like, it's not
• 55:28
  Speaker 8: even close. If I'm a Buffalo fan, I would love
• 55:32
  Speaker 8: Jim Kelly. He's he's tough as hell. We all know
• 55:35
  Speaker 8: some of the story about his the resiliency he's had
• 55:39
  Speaker 8: to have in his personal life. So he's a hero.
• 55:42
  Speaker 8: He's an absolute hero. But as a quarterback, he cannot
• 55:45
  Speaker 8: get in the galaxy of Josh Allen in my opinion. Uh,
• 55:49
  Speaker 8: it's you know, we're watching one of the greatest football
• 55:51
  Speaker 8: players of all time in Josh Allen.
• 55:54
  Speaker 3: That's my take.
• 55:54
  Speaker 1: All right, that's a hot take right there. That's a
• 55:57
  Speaker 1: hot take.
• 55:57
  Speaker 8: I don't think it's actually I don't really think it's
• 55:59
  Speaker 8: a hot take.
• 56:00
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's a hot take.
• 56:03
  Speaker 3: It's a good dake.
• 56:03
  Speaker 1: I'm not saying that. I'm not saying you did anything wrong.
• 56:06
  Speaker 1: That's a strong, bold statement right there.
• 56:10
  Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, I don't know. I think it's defensible. I
• 56:13
  Speaker 8: think there's that guy, you know, think of John Elway.
• 56:17
  Speaker 8: You know, we just had mel Kiper. I remember just
• 56:20
  Speaker 8: this last draft, he was talking about whoever's going to
• 56:23
  Speaker 8: be number one. It's just well, he's not my number
• 56:25
  Speaker 8: one of all time. My number one of all time
• 56:27
  Speaker 8: will always be John Elway. He didn't say is John
• 56:31
  Speaker 8: Elway and might be replaced, he said, will always be
• 56:34
  Speaker 8: like as if nobody will ever touch John Elway, and
• 56:38
  Speaker 8: so and yet Elway with all of his skills, he
• 56:41
  Speaker 8: looks at Josh Allen, who's two inches taller in him,
• 56:44
  Speaker 8: twenty five pounds, heavier, faster, and throws just as hard,
• 56:47
  Speaker 8: and he goes, damn, dude, you got some skills.
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: All right, more with Hugh we're gonna talk. I mean
• 56:54
  Speaker 1: crazy week last week for us here on the college
• 56:56
  Speaker 1: football scene, and now that the dust has kind of settled,
• 57:01

• 58:43
  Speaker 3: That was something, It was really something.
• 58:45
  Speaker 6: But now I have a decision to make, which is
• 58:49
  Speaker 6: which is the game is Saturday? But as you pointed out,
• 58:54
  Speaker 6: is it at night or is it d during the day.
• 58:57
  Speaker 3: Could be one thirty, could be five.
• 58:58
  Speaker 6: Well, that change is the menu that really changes. There's
• 59:02
  Speaker 6: a lot of decisions to make there, you know, Well,
• 59:07
  Speaker 6: because it's it's five o'clock. It's you're approaching happy hour.
• 59:13
  Speaker 6: You know, the lunch could be just a sandwich. You're
• 59:15
  Speaker 6: talking about a lot of different things.
• 59:17
  Speaker 3: That's true. That's really messing with you know.
• 59:19
  Speaker 6: You know, Candied Yams, I think I'm gonna I'm gonna
• 59:23
  Speaker 6: push for that.
• 59:23
  Speaker 5: Yes, please, Well you could just like I don't know,
• 59:27
  Speaker 5: bring some Swedish meatballs over to my house and we
• 59:30
  Speaker 5: could root for the broncos as well, you know what,
• 59:33
  Speaker 5: and then it's just make a whole day of it.
• 59:35
  Speaker 6: So I have a big package. Every package has sixty
• 59:39
  Speaker 6: five meatballs in my Kia Swedish meatballs. You ever had
• 59:43
  Speaker 6: you've been to Ikea, but oh sure, yeah, yeah sixty five.
• 59:47
  Speaker 6: Oh wow, but they're small. Oh so I have a
• 59:50
  Speaker 6: large family. If they all come over, I might get
• 59:53
  Speaker 6: short shorted on them, kind.
• 59:54
  Speaker 1: Of a home grin doesn't make his own meatballs that well.
• 59:59
  Speaker 6: It's just it's there's labor intensive, and I get aches
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 6: and pains in my hands sometimes the meat oil.
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 8: I thought they sold desks, Now they're selling Sweetish meatballs.
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 6: Oh they got all sorts of stuff. Yeah, Lingonberry's everything,
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 6: Swedish fish. Yeah, you Herring pickled Harry Harring for sure.
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 3: Uh that way?
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 7: You know.
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry we should talk football, Yeah we probably should,
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 1: But I do love the idea of just firing up
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: some candy yams while you're watching NFL playoffs this weekend.
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 1: All right, well, okay, so we know the opponent, it's
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 1: the San Francisco forty nine. Or how would you feel
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 1: about that if you're Mike McDonald, like, didn't we just
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 1: beat these guys? Didn't we just prove we could beat
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 1: these guys? Are you excited because you did.
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 3: Just hammer them?
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 6: Well, it's an interesting thing. I think that your motions
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 6: on that. Yeah, you know, everyone kind of be the same.
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 6: They just beat them. They dominated them in the game.
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 6: They only scored thirteen points, but they dominated. So you
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 6: kind of have to have that feeling. You got to
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 6: be careful with your team now, well saying okay, this
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 6: is a new game. You're going to play a new team.
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 6: It's not gonna be the same team. And we beat
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 6: thirteen to three, you know, so that you're going to
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 6: have to kind of implant that. And I don't their
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 6: team has been so focused and so good down the
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 6: stretch here. I don't think that'll be a problem, but
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 6: it's something you have to address.
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 8: If you were in Mike McDonald's position here, how much
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 8: of this, Okay, you're gonna expect a counterputs, you dominated
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 8: the forty nine ers before. How much of your concern
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 8: centers around kind of schematics trying to say, okay, what's
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 8: what's the next move on the chess board?
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 3: How much of.
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 8: It is getting your team in the right kind of
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 8: psychological emotional state, you know that you know, caution about
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 8: maybe some type of I want to say, overlook, you're
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 8: not going to overlook the forty nine ers, but maybe
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 8: you're just a little too proud. And the fact that
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 8: the forty nine ers, based on the last game that
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 8: you had with it, they're gonna have you know, they're
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 8: going to be chewing light bulbs, eager to get you know,
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 8: their their revenge, that type of thing. How much of
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 8: it is schematic? How much of it is the psychological
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 8: part and the motivational part.
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 6: I think it's I think it's both. You know, obviously
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 6: it's a you know, they dominated the forty nine ers.
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 6: Now this game I think will be different. I think
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 6: it'll be close. The other game was close. You know,
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 6: but I think there's a possibility of more scoring perhaps.
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 6: But I go back to you. When I in Green Bay,
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 6: we played no excuse me, I guess it was Seattle.
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 6: We played the Bears on Monday night football and lost
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 6: thirty nine to nothing, just got hammered.
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, remember, and.
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 6: Then played them in the second round of the playoffs
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 6: and we should have won the game. They went to
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 6: overtime and they beat us in overtime. So you had
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 6: two teams, same teams, two vastly different games. Why the players,
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 6: It's up to the players. It's scheme scheme, you're gonna
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 6: You're gonna do some stuff scheme wise, But it's really
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 6: up to what the players think and how they want
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 6: revenge and how they how they're gonna go into the
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 6: game and how they're gonna play.
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 3: That's what it boils down to. Yeah, that makes sense.
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 5: And yet how difficult is it to repeat a performance?
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 5: I mean that last that Week eighteen game, with the
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 5: first round by and the win in the division, all
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 5: that stuff on the line.
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 3: The Seahawks showed up. But I mean it was it
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 3: was unbelievable.
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 5: I've said it already today and I know I said
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 5: it after that game, just the tackling on defense was
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 5: I mean, it was perfect. They just they didn't have
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 5: anything after they completed a pass or even got past
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 5: Atlanta scrimmage. So is it is it difficult to do
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 5: that or is that just who the Seahawks team is
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 5: and you just expect them to make every single tackle?
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 7: Well?
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 6: Uh, no, I but that's who the team is. First
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 6: of all, I think they're defensively in particular, they're they're
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 6: gonna play that way all the time. Excuse me, they
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 6: that's who they are. Having said that, No, the mistakes
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 6: will take you know, every team makes mistakes. Every player
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 6: will misa tackle in a game. It's not going to
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 6: be perfect. So and I think San Francisco they're going
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 6: to see a different San Francisco team as well, because
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 6: the forty nine ers there, they had been prior to
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 6: that game, and even yesterday they play better offense than
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 6: they did in that game. Why because the Seahawks have
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 6: a good defense, or because we made too many mistakes
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 6: and we played it this way, So they'll correct those
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 6: and I expect I expect a better offensive showing from them.
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 1: Well, I'm curious that just talking about scheme they always
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 1: say about the great coaches they innovate while you're innovating.
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 1: You know, they said that about Walsh, and they said
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 1: that about you, and they say that about Andy, And
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 1: I think they say that about McVeigh and Shanahan and
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 1: McDonald that you, you know, they're trying, the league's trying
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 1: to adjust to you, but you've already adjusted to them.
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 3: And they didn't even realize it, You know that sort
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 3: of thing.
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 1: And so how do you Because Hugh's right, and I
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 1: would ask Hugh's opinion on this as well. Hugh's right,
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 1: you know Shannan's going to do something different, you just
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 1: don't know what he's going to do differently. So if
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 1: you're Mike McDonald and you know what you did the
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 1: last time work perfectly.
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 3: Are you going to change anything?
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 1: Are you going to try to anticipate what Shannahan's going
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 1: to do to change up so that you're ready for that?
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 1: How do you handle that? From an innovation standpoint?
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 6: I don't think the Seahawks will change dramatically from what
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 6: they're taught. I think based within their defense, they're ready
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 6: for most anything. But they also have to be ready
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 6: for motions and shifting and things like that, you know.
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 6: But the bottom line I think is can can the
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 6: forty nine ers pass protect against the four guys? If
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 6: they can, If they can, pert you'll complete passes. He's
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 6: good at that. If they can't, then it's gonna be
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 6: a tough long day for San Francisco. In which case
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 6: then then you might have to blitz a little bit
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 6: more than they're used to.
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 3: They'll talk about the X.
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 6: So that's the adjustment they would make on defense, you know,
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 6: because no, they you can't be ready for everything, so
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 6: you just have to play this is our defense. They
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 6: go emotion there, we do this, they do this, and
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 6: then you don't make too many rules because that's when
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 6: the mistakes come in.
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 8: Mike, I think a general, if you had to describe
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 8: general as my general take would be the Seattle's game plan.
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 8: They're gonna play a pass defense too high structure on
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 8: most downs, and they are, and when they don't, they're
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 8: going to disguise, get into it. They're gonna play with
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 8: so they're gonna stop the pass with their structure and
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 8: with their personnel. They were in nickel or dime on
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 8: every not a single play a base and so they
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 8: were able to do that, and then, as Mike McDonald said,
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 8: shrink the playbook so that it's third and long. And
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 8: then I thought they did a great job. Now Trent
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 8: Williams wasn't playing, but I thought Seattle defensive ends did
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 8: a great job of creating of converting speed to power
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 8: on their pass rushes and squeezing Purdy from the outside
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 8: and then also getting a push on the inside and
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 8: did a good better job of keeping him in the pocket.
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 8: Remember the game winner in Week one at Seattle was
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 8: Purty getting outside the pocket, extending the play and throwing
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 8: the touchdown pass off script. And so I think those
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 8: were kind of some of the fastests that that I
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 8: thought were essential to the game plan for Seattle.
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I think that if Perdy, I don't think Perdy
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 6: can beat them by himself, or the passing game can't
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 6: win the game by itself. I really believe, because as
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 6: the way that Seattle is defending, and they're defending it beautifully,
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 6: but they forty nine ers. To stay in the football game,
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 6: have got to get the running game going a little.
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 6: They've got to get the running game going, and they've
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 6: shown their ability to do that, but they couldn't do
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 6: it against Seattle in the first game the last time
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 6: they played. But to win the football game, they're gonna
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 6: have to do that because that'll give Purty more time.
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 6: That'll just make it a little bit easier for.
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 3: Him, Mike.
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 8: When we last discussed this point, it was just kind
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 8: of in the aftermath of the last game. Now it's
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 8: kind of a part of the preview the forty nine ers.
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 8: In that game, they had excuse me, two running backs
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 8: on nineteen plays, Kyle Usteff right, ten time Pro Bowl fullback.
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 8: But of those nineteen they only had us check in
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 8: the backfield at the snap one of nineteen. Otherwise Uchchek
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 8: was out in the wing, it'd split him out.
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 3: What have you?
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 8: One could charge that Kyle Shannon was getting a little
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 8: too cute in terms of what's their brand identity. Their
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 8: brand identity is when Usteff's in the game, he's the
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 8: lead back, and and you know, like like we got
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 8: an extra man in the hole on those lead zone plays, right,
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 8: So what about that aspect of it, with what you say,
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 8: how they're going to make the adjustments, how they're going
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 8: to run the football, would you expect to see a
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 8: change in that stat.
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 3: I really would.
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 6: I think Yusha. He last night he proved he's also
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 6: a good pass receiver out of the backfield, and so
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 6: he can do that. I'm you know Tom Moore who
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 6: was a great coach, coach for he just retired. He's
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 6: eighty six years old. You guys know the name. He
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 6: coached for Tampa, I believe most recently and Indianapolis. He
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 6: had Indianapolis with Peyton Manning and he and it was
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 6: very simple. He went, Okay, if they're in that too deep,
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 6: look the look that the forty nine ers, excuse me,
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 6: Seattle runs. Okay, we're running the ball at the Lion scrimmage.
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 3: You call a run. If they're in single safety, you
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 3: call it pass boom.
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 6: And that was it. Peyton Manning get up with Omaha
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 6: and do all that stuff. But that was it. And
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 6: so if Seattle continues to run the two deep, you
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 6: gotta be able to run against that. If you can't,
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 6: it's going to be a long day because on paper,
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 6: everybody has thought, if you're running that kind of defense,
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 6: you can run against it.
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean whether or not they can, I mean,
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 5: I'm not one hundred percent sure that the Niners are
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 5: apt to even try just simply because of how good
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 5: the Seahawks defense is up there the front four, but
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 5: even that front seven, and yet they can kind of
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 5: still get the ball in Jackson or in Christian McCaffrey's
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 5: hands via the pass, and so they can figure out
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 5: how to do that. I mean, is there if you
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 5: end up having a dominant game, albeit that you still
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 5: only score three, ten thirteen points on your own end
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 5: and so you don't blow them out even though you
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 5: dominated them defensively, how many changes are you trying to
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 5: make or is it just still the we're just gonna
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 5: do what we do.
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 3: We don't have to change anything.
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 7: No, you have to.
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 6: They look, they're gonna look at that game and they're
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 6: gonna you have to look at that game and say, Okay,
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 6: we were not at our best. Why why didn't this happen?
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 6: Why did this happen? How come we didn't take advantage
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 6: of that all those things. They're going to study that
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 6: game like crazy and then make adjustments to that. And
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 6: the Chuck's point earlier, you know, Mike knows that, you
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 6: know you play that. Okay, if we know they're gonna
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 6: do this, maybe we should do this. And then you
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 6: get into that and so eventually, you just have to,
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 6: using those parameters, still do what you think you can
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 6: do best, and you've done it all season long.
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 1: Let's just assume as a collective group that let's say
• 1:12:01
  Speaker 1: the Seahawks give up five yards of offense Saturday total
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 1: to the San Francisco forty piners. Let's just assume that,
• 1:12:09
  Speaker 1: and yet and yet it's still.
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 3: Tend to nothing.
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 1: What about offensively, I mean, what offensively coach needs to
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 1: change about the Seahawks attack so that if the defense
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 1: does dominate on Saturday, that you're still not in the
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 1: fourth quarter wondering if you're gonna pull it off.
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it's been that. It's been that way a little
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 6: bit all season long, you know, because they haven't scored
• 1:12:36
  Speaker 6: a lot of points in some games in the first half.
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 6: Then they kind of regroup and put up the points
• 1:12:42
  Speaker 6: in the second half. I think they're running the ball.
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 6: They have a feeling. I believe they believe they're running
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 6: the ball better now with both the backs. So we'll
• 1:12:53
  Speaker 6: see that, you know, and then you know, you can't
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 6: turn the ball over. I mean, it's pretty basic football.
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 6: And so if they can run the ball like they've
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 6: been running it with Walker and Charbonnay. If they can
• 1:13:07
  Speaker 6: do that, then I think offensively, they've got enough weapons
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 6: there to take care of business.
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 8: Mike, let's circle back to yesterday. Just watching the game.
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 8: What was your impression and what was noteworthy about the
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 8: forty nine er game.
• 1:13:23
  Speaker 3: They're at Philadelphia.
• 1:13:25
  Speaker 6: I thought the forty nine or defense. You know, they
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 6: they lost their two best defensive players, Pro Bowl players,
• 1:13:33
  Speaker 6: and you know, and and yet they got guys there.
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 6: I didn't know the names of some of them, you know,
• 1:13:39
  Speaker 6: and they're playing and they're they're really showing me an aggressive,
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 6: fiery defense. And I thought against the Eagles, who was
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 6: you know, they have a dominating offensive line. They got Barkley,
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 6: they got they got you know, they have good offensive people.
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 6: They they really did a good job against Philadelphia in Philadelphia.
• 1:14:02
  Speaker 6: And so that was the thing that was my takeaway
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 6: that they can play good defense, and the Seahawks are
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 6: going to have to have a good offensive game. They'll
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 6: have a good plan, but then you have to execute
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 6: it to take care of business.
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 1: I think, all right, Mike Homeran is with us, Hugh
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 1: Mellan is with us. We are Monday morning quarterbacking here today.

  Speaker 1: the physicality gets ramped up an extra notch. I couldn't
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 1: believe how physical those games were. I mean, we all
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 1: know football is very physical and where we used to
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 1: watching Seahawks play physical football, so it shouldn't be that
• 1:16:24
  Speaker 1: startling batman.
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 3: It it just I mean, there were guys just.
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 1: Getting clobbered all week in long. You know, how is
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 1: Mike McDonald as a first year head coach, what would
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 1: be the advice getting ready for or second not first
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 1: year head coach, second year head coach getting ready for
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 1: his first playoff game?
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 3: What would be your advice?
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 1: You know, he's not going to be caught off guard
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 1: by the physicality, but in terms of what he needs
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 1: to prepare his players for so that they're not caught
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 1: off guard, whether it's physicality or something else.
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 6: You know, I always that's a good point. I think
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 6: every coach in the playoffs they have to deal with this.
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 6: That I would, and I think I maybe mentioned this
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 6: on the show before that you play the you play
• 1:17:11
  Speaker 6: the preseason, then you play the regular season, then you
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 6: play the playoffs, then you get in the super Bowl.
• 1:17:16
  Speaker 6: So there are four distinct, in my opinion, levels of intensity.
• 1:17:22
  Speaker 6: You know, you're going like crazy during the season, but
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 6: now you get in the playoffs, everyone cranks it up
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 6: a notch. And it's how your team responds to you.
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 6: And I used to talk about that. I said, Okay,
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 6: you give me everything you had during the season, Now
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 6: reach down and give me some more. I know you
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 6: can do that, give me some more. And then if
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 6: you get it get to the super Bowl, I know
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 6: you give me everything. Is there anything left? Give me
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 6: some more, and and you kind of treat it that way.
• 1:17:52
  Speaker 6: So and I'm sure Mike he knows that he's been
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 6: in given having coached a playoff game. Oh sure he
• 1:17:58
  Speaker 6: knows that because he's as a head coach. But they'll be,
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 6: they'll they'll be They have to understand. Your team has
• 1:18:07
  Speaker 6: to understand the other team's going to be different. It's
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 6: not going to be the team they beat thirteen to three.
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 6: It's not going to be all right. And so how
• 1:18:16
  Speaker 6: are we going to handle this. We're gonna do our thing.
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 6: We're gonna steal your coach to to do the right things,
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 6: not make mistakes, be physical, all those things. But then
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 6: all the things I said, crank it.
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 1: Up a match, you know, because they're going to They're
• 1:18:33
  Speaker 1: going to maah.
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 3: Mike uh.
• 1:18:36
  Speaker 8: Let's talk about brock Perdy for a second. Here, here's
• 1:18:39
  Speaker 8: a guy that if you go back to training camp,
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 8: his targets, he probably was thought he was going to
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 8: be throwing to Brandon Ayuk and Ricky Piersoll and to
• 1:18:49
  Speaker 8: George Kittle. None of those guys were available to him
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 8: in the second half of the game yesterday. He's a
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 8: guy that four of his five playoff wins, they all
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 8: feature game winning drives.
• 1:19:04
  Speaker 3: There's a resiliency to this.
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 7: Guy, you know.
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 8: I mean the game winning drive that he had yesterday
• 1:19:10
  Speaker 8: was following an interception, and so I'm just curious your take.
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 8: Is a unique guy, one of the weakest arm starting quarterbacks.
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 8: I think I've ever seen, and yet he has his
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 8: own brand of quarterbacking. And I've got some thoughts on him,
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 8: but I'd love to hear yours.
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 6: Well, he's really I really like the guy because of
• 1:19:32
  Speaker 6: what you just said. You I think skill strength wise
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 6: in his arm, you know, he throws, he very accurate,
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 6: and he makes good decisions, but he doesn't have a
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 6: lot of juice. I mean, he can't just rack it
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 6: in there most of the time. You know, his arm
• 1:19:47
  Speaker 6: strength is average, it's not super. But so how does
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 6: he do it? How does any quarterback do it like
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 6: that one? He's coachable, he understands their system, he knows
• 1:19:59
  Speaker 6: where to go with the football. Okay, he has good movement,
• 1:20:03
  Speaker 6: he can get out of trouble and he can run
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 6: a little bit, so that helps him as well. But
• 1:20:08
  Speaker 6: you look at the forty nine offense, the guys you mentioned,
• 1:20:11
  Speaker 6: those were their starting receivers, Those were their good guys.
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 6: When that happened to me, we weren't nearly as good
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 6: in the passing game, regardless of who went in there.
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 6: You know, I had Desmond Howard, I had some people
• 1:20:24
  Speaker 6: go in there. They weren't the same as the guys
• 1:20:26
  Speaker 6: that started and so what happened yesterday? Who caught the
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 6: passes the full back and the half back and then
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 6: every once in a while to get one to the
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 6: tight end. Jenny's caught a couple of balls, but not many.
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 6: So Marcus Robinson stepped up. Yeah, and he stepped up.
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 6: Robinson stepped up. But I mean it changes and so,
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 6: but pretty you can't bet against the guy, the young
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 6: man he's I think he's this teammates love him. His
• 1:20:55
  Speaker 6: journey to get where he is that has to that's
• 1:20:58
  Speaker 6: pretty impressive. And I think he still remains somewhat humble,
• 1:21:02
  Speaker 6: you know, So that's that's impressive.
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 3: To me too.
• 1:21:05
  Speaker 5: Yeah, oh, I like humility. It doesn't happen a whole
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 5: hug of a lot nowadays in sports.
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 3: But I'm the best at being humble. Yeah, you're You're
• 1:21:11
  Speaker 3: the best in the world being humble. Yeah.
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 5: Uh huh uh. Coach he was talking earlier. He just
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 5: mentioned and kind of went a little bit into the
• 1:21:22
  Speaker 5: the idea of like simulated pressures and how Seattle can
• 1:21:26
  Speaker 5: look like they might be bringing extra guys and yet
• 1:21:29
  Speaker 5: then they just they trust that they're four guys will
• 1:21:31
  Speaker 5: get there.
• 1:21:32
  Speaker 7: Uh.
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 5: How difficult is that to coach a guy like Rock Purty,
• 1:21:36
  Speaker 5: for for example, on how to kind of dissect what
• 1:21:40
  Speaker 5: they're going to do even though you don't know they're
• 1:21:42
  Speaker 5: gonna look like they're doing one thing and maybe do
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 5: another or they might actually bring that pressure. So how
• 1:21:47
  Speaker 5: difficult is that and how much of it scheme wise
• 1:21:49
  Speaker 5: can Kyle Shanahan do to give him out with the
• 1:21:54
  Speaker 5: play calling, regardless of whether they bring somebody or not.
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 5: So you're having maybe some deeper intermediate routes, but you're
• 1:21:59
  Speaker 5: all so having some hot routes in case the guys
• 1:22:01
  Speaker 5: do come.
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 6: That's exactly right, And that's the toughest thing to do.
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 6: Buck when you're teaching the quarterback or getting him ready
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 6: during a week and you see teams now that put
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 6: you know they'll put seven guys up front on defense.
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 6: Now the quarterback has the decision to make he protection.
• 1:22:18
  Speaker 6: If you're gonna throw the ball, Am I gonna slide
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 6: the line of the left? I'm gonna slide the line
• 1:22:23
  Speaker 6: of the right. Do I have anybody helping me in
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 6: the backfield?
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 7: You know?
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 6: And then a lot of times you slide the line
• 1:22:30
  Speaker 6: one way and know they fooled you, and here they
• 1:22:32
  Speaker 6: come on the other side. You gotta have a hot receiver.
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 6: You got to have somebody to get the ball to.
• 1:22:39
  Speaker 6: That's the challenge. You get underneath the center, and you
• 1:22:41
  Speaker 6: know this better than anybody in underneath the center. You
• 1:22:44
  Speaker 6: make the decision, Okay, they're gonna play this defense. This
• 1:22:48
  Speaker 6: is what I think they're gonna do. This is my
• 1:22:51
  Speaker 6: this is my progression. You take one step on your
• 1:22:56
  Speaker 6: drop and you're watching the safeties and you're watching whoever whoops, No,
• 1:23:02
  Speaker 6: it's something else where do I?
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 3: What do I do? Now?
• 1:23:05
  Speaker 6: That's the challenge for the week, because everything happens in
• 1:23:09
  Speaker 6: like two seconds. Two seconds right before you get killed,
• 1:23:14
  Speaker 6: before you get stopped, is smashed, you know. So that's
• 1:23:17
  Speaker 6: that's that's the beauty of playing quarterback. And that's that's
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 6: what you have to teach him.
• 1:23:22
  Speaker 8: And I didn't communicate it well. Sim Pressure, as it's
• 1:23:27
  Speaker 8: generally just described it as is if you have if
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 8: you're rushing four players, that's normal. Five or more is
• 1:23:36
  Speaker 8: considered a blitz or a pressure. And as a sim
• 1:23:40
  Speaker 8: pressure is where like a dB comes off a slot
• 1:23:44
  Speaker 8: or the corners come whatever, what appears like a blitzing player.
• 1:23:49
  Speaker 8: But because defensive linemen drop out. For example, when Leonard
• 1:23:54
  Speaker 8: Williams dropped out and he intercepted Aaron Rodgers and then
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 8: ran it back ninety two yards. You know that that
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 8: would be the type of thing you would see in
• 1:24:03
  Speaker 8: a sim pressure Seattle. In terms of five man pressures,
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 8: uh five five, they're only twenty one point twenty two
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 8: and bringing blitzes that's five or more. That's twenty fourth
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 8: in the league. But they they bring all there's a
• 1:24:22
  Speaker 8: lot of times where they're only rushing four. We actually
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 8: do the math. They're only rushing four, but one or
• 1:24:29
  Speaker 8: two of them are a linebacker or a dB or
• 1:24:32
  Speaker 8: somebody that that feels like a blitz to the quarterback.
• 1:24:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, we got to coach. We got Hugh
• 1:24:39
  Speaker 1: here on checking back in the morning. I do want
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 1: to mention this before we run out of time, and
• 1:24:42
  Speaker 1: our one last thing we add your guy Matt hasselback
• 1:24:46
  Speaker 1: on last Wednesday.
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and he said, I'm gonna talk behind his back
• 1:24:51
  Speaker 3: a little bit here.
• 1:24:52
  Speaker 1: He said that he was under the impression that Joe
• 1:24:55
  Speaker 1: Montana was your favorite quarterback of all time. He said that, yeah,
• 1:24:59
  Speaker 1: And he he also said that you did not know that.
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 1: He said, well, we want the ball and we're going
• 1:25:06
  Speaker 1: to score that. You did not know that that happened.
• 1:25:09
  Speaker 3: That's true.
• 1:25:10
  Speaker 6: I found out about it in the locker room afterwards
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 6: after we lost.
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 5: Yeah, we said, he said, you came, he came walking over,
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 5: and you said.
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 3: What did you do?
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 1: Did you do something?
• 1:25:21
  Speaker 3: Did you do something?
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 6: Yeah, because there was oh there was I go, yeah,
• 1:25:26
  Speaker 6: I didn't know. And then of course when I found out,
• 1:25:29
  Speaker 6: I said, I wish you hadn't done.
• 1:25:32
  Speaker 5: That's a very nice way to say it.
• 1:25:36
  Speaker 3: You know, what, are you nuts?
• 1:25:40
  Speaker 8: I wish the receiver, the four string receiver who's basically
• 1:25:44
  Speaker 8: a spect teams guy, I wish he hadn't taken his
• 1:25:46
  Speaker 8: hitch route three years.
• 1:25:48
  Speaker 6: There's there's a you know, I'd forgotten about that game.
• 1:25:51
  Speaker 6: I'm glad you guys brought that up.
• 1:25:54
  Speaker 3: Happy Monday, Let's talk about the Super Bowl.
