  Speaker 1: Hawk Talk Recap edition. Oh yes, the Hawks beat the
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: Dolphins thirty one to twenty three. Day did their thing
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: down in Florida. And let's get some thoughts for our dude,
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: Big Ray. It's time to go inside the trenches with
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: former Seahawk Ray Roberts. Big Ray, what's up man? What's
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: having a big dog? Another victory Monday? Hey, We'll take
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: it anyway we can get it. We will take a win.
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: What's the first thing that jumps out to you about
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: this win down in Florida. To be honest with you,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: I was thinking about it after the show last night,
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: and it's really hard to because the stats don't necessarily
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: say it. But I thought the defense had a better effort,
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: even though you know, when you look at the yardage,
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: it may not be where you want it. And maybe
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: they scored another touchdown that they didn't need to that
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: they could have stopped. But I thought the defense they
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: just looked more active. They looked like that there were
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: a more pressure around the quarterback. There were some guys
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: making some plays, and so I felt good about the
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: direction of where they're going. And uh, you know, obviously
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: there's a lot of work to do, but I felt
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: good about that. And then I was just thinking about
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: Chris Carson in all the different ways that they're starting
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: to use him. Uh, you know, catching the ball out
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: of the backfield. Be nice to get back to some
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: of those screens that were doing in the first week.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: But they're they're giving him a lot of touches and
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: so and then put him in places to be successful
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: when he gets it. So those are the two things
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: to kind of stick out in my mind from the game. Now,
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: you're a tough dude, Chris Carson shows in toughness. Man,
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: he almost had his leg or ripped off the week before,
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: yet he comes out and he performs at a high level.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: How hard is that to do, especially at the running
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: back position. Well, I mean, yeah, that has to be
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: hard because you're also taking hits on that on that leg,
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: and then you're having to you know, cut real hard.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: And the way he runs, you know, he's not a
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: dude that's going to run out of bounds and things,
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: and so I think it's pretty incredible. I don't know
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: if it's like a part of the culture here or whatever,
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: but uh, dudes that that tend to get hurt tend
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: to heal fast and or they till tend to just
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: muscle through it. You know, Russell Wilson, you know, it's
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: his perfect example. The dude just kind of has had
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: injuries here and there, but it's been able to muscle
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: through and keep playing. Uh. And so I don't know
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: if that's a cultural thing with that team where they
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: just get some really tough dudes. But you know, Chris
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: Carson is a fan favorite. He's a favorite of mine
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: obviously because of the way he runs. He says to
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: kind of like detone for for how the game is
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: going to go physically and uh, and so for him
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: to be able to take that injury, put it behind
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: him and then just look just as fresh as all
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: get out. Yesterday it was pretty incredible. Yeah, it was,
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: Um and Ray we saw something and we talked about
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: it briefly before we departed the stadium last night. Um,
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: there was a rotation going on on that offensive line.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: Now we're used to seeing that out of the out
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: of the defensive line, but we saw that out of
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: the old line. Do you like that approach? You know,
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: I like it because I love first of all, there
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: just their approach to their offensive line during the off season.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: So there was some some high elite level type a
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: couple of tackles that they could have gone after, but
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: they went after a handful of players that you know,
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: combined had over one hundred or so starts and so
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: they've had some some time under their belt. And so
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: then you say, like, well, man, that was that. I
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: like the way they did that because it's depth that
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: there's more or you know, easier transition into the into
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: a new team and all that chemistry and all that.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: But then you missed the preseason, so there's a lot
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: of guys that you want to see what they can do,
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: which you haven't had a lot of reps for it.
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: And so they've been able to rotate through a bunch
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: of guys. Yesterday, Um, you know, they had Simmons had
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: come in, Jones to come in. Uh. I forget the
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: other tack of me escase for me um. But but
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: they they're doing a really good job of rotating those
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: guys in and letting them get real time in the
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: in the moment when it counts reps. And I think
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: that's gonna pay off down the road. And then also,
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: if you want to look at it, it it can
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: kind of be kind of load management, load management for
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: your party because he's not playing every single snap and
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: so maybe he's healthy enough to last for the entire season.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: So I just I love the way they approach it.
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: In the all season, they went after you know, a
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: handful of guys with experience versus one elite dude. And
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: then I love the way they're rotating guys in right
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: now and they're not missing the beat. They're they're coming in,
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: they're playing well. Uh, they're they're they're protecting Russell. They're
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: creating running room for for Chris and the running backs,
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: and so I just really liked that approach to It's
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: a really cool way to kind of get guys acclimated
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: to what they're doing into the plays and play playing
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: with real bullets, so to speak. Yeah, and that's a
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: that's a cool approach. And I applied Carol for taking
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: that approach because you know, full boss, it's a tough
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: man sport, right, you never tap out. You always want
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: to be on the field. But he lives in reality.
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: I got some old guys up there, and I have
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: some guys that I want to see. Um, if you
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: were playing in this big ray that dude seventy two,
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: if you were playing in this offense and you were
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: getting tapped out later in your career, would you be
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: okay with it? You know what? Like I've always been
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: kind of a team team dude that way, and my dad,
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: you know, always told me to do what was best
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: for the team and help the team out. And so obviously,
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: you know, you want to play every single place, So
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: you notice that not tapping out Dwayne Brown that much hurt.
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: But but you know, if it was late in my career,
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: and I was like, you're potty, and I have had
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: some injuries here and there, and I'm just missing, you know,
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: a handful of plays each game. Like I'd be fine
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: with that if it's going to help me keep playing
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: the whole season and I'm not gonna get injured and
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: miss games and all that kind of stuff. Um, but
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: if but if you know, if I'm more like Dwayne Brown,
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: well I'm less injured, I don't know if. I don't
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: know if I'd be down with it. But uh, but
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: for the group that they have and for what they're
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: trying to build, Uh, this is like a perfect strategy
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: to get guys from real reps. I feel it now.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: This this offense is looking aggressive, right, I mean fourth
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: down inside the twenty. Uh, they get aggressive twenty four
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: seconds left and a half and they don't take knees.
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: They're throwing the ball down the field. It led to
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: a touchdown. Do you like this this new aggressive type
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: of approach to this offense. I like it as long
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: as it's not like reckless aggression, you know, like where
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: they're just like it's like just throwing, you know, passing
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: to the win and just going forward, you know, in
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: tough situations all the time. But I think because of
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: the opponents and you know, the way they were the
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: offense was playing against them against the Dolphins, and I think,
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: you know, situationally, like I think it's that it's great
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: to say aggressive like that, but you can't like, you know,
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: miss putting points on the board. I mean, because the
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: luckily they you know, they got they got their points back.
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: But you know, when you when you uh, you pass
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: on a field goal or something like that, you don't
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: get it. Those things can come back to the haunting
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: the end. But but they've created a mentality over there
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: with the offense that they're going to be aggressive, and
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: the team supports it, rush supports it, and and so
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: it's good to see that they are uh, that they
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: are true to what they're saying, just so if they
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: don't get reckless with it. So what you're saying is
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: if they're playing against Green Bay and it's a close
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: one in the same situation, they probably don't go forward.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: In those situations, they probably go get those three points
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: and you know, call it a day. Uh. And you know,
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: because that's a real you know, if you're playing against
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: a more powerful offense or a better defense that you know,
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: So I think it was a situational kind of a thing.
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: But I do think obviously it's a mindset because they've
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: they've been aggressive from the from the first snap of
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: the season, you know, throwing the ball down the field. Yep.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: All right, Russell Wilson had another good day. Man twenty
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: four thirty four, three hundred sixty yards, didn't throw us
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: five touchdowns, all right, had a I wouldn't calling him
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: off day, but compared to other other performances, um, he
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: still played well. Though. What were your thoughts on Russell
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: Wilson's play overall? Well, you know, the thing that I
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: just keep getting amazed by Mike is that, you know,
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: like I said, like physically like you go like man,
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: like he's throwing the ball, he's putting it. You know,
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: he's dropping him in those those those uh the bread basket.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: You know, he's sawing us the deep bombs, and he's
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: sawing the underneath routes and like all that kind of stuff.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: Everything looks perfect. But the thing that that has impressed
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: me out Russell during this play is this decision making.
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: This decision making has been on point the entire time,
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: Like you can't. You can't look at like almost any
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: throw that he's made, or any decision he's made to
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: run and it go like, man, that was a bad decision.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: Maybe it's to throw the DK and the end zone
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: yesterday with the intercept. He may have been a bad throw,
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: or it could have just been a great play by
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: the by the defender. But every decision that this dude makes,
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: like when you go back and rewind, you go like
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: that is the decision to make. So if it was
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: to like slide to the right and throw the ball
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: back to the left, or if it was a takeoff running,
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: or if it was to spin out like he does
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: and and throw the ball, or or when it is
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: time to throw the ball deep or throwing the short,
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: to throw the short to the check down to the
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: running back. Every single time he seems to be making
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: the right decision. And to me, that's tougher to do
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: than some of the physical stuff because you get mentally tired.
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: This is a different kind of season. We're dealing with
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: all the pandemic stuff. You know, been a you know,
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: you know away from your families or you know, don't
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: have the fans like all that kind of stuff, and
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: that can drain on you mentally, and this dude has
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: been able to stay mentally sharp the entire time, and
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: that's really hard to do. Yeah, I'm with you. I
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: think people underestimate how hard it is to play the
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: quarterback position because the final decision comes down to you
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: when you are throwing the football. So it's nice to
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: hear that. You think that he's making all the right decisions. Now,
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: let's go over to the defensive side of the ball.
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: Didn't give up a passer, has over foreign passing yards.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: Only gave up two plays over twenty yards. Ryan Neil
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: had a big hit. kJ was everywhere. Loki Bobby had
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: a good game too, had twelve tackles. What do you
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: see out of this defense? Well, I thought, you know,
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: obviously the dude that jumped off the page was kJ Wright. Like,
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: I mean, kJ Wright just sniffs out a screen better
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: than anybody's ever seen in my entire life, like football,
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: Like just never seen a person like Every now and
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: then a guy you know gets one or two of those,
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: but he seems to get them every single time they
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: try to run a screen to his side. He seems
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: to sniff it out. So it was good to see
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: dak kJ back because there was something you know, some
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: that think, like, you know, the way we've been drafting there,
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: trying to replace him, and maybe he hasn't shown the
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: same quickness and sadly that he has in the past.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: But that was old. That was like, that was the
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: the kJ right that we used to seeing on Sunday.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: So that was really really good to see. Uh. It
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: was really good to see some of the some of
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: the young guys in the secondary getting reps because of
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: some of the indrews and things. And you have the
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: backups coming in and like you said, the guys are
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: making big hits and and you know, uh uh Griffin
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: had another interception. So, like I said at the beginning,
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: I think that it's hard when you look at the
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: score or you or you look at some of the stats,
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: you feel like, man, the defense couldn't even you know,
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: stop the Dolphins or whatever. But the stats don't tell
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: the whole story. I thought. I thought they played a
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: solid game. They showed improvement and coverage to showed improvement
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: in tackling. They showed an improvement getting people around the quarterback,
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: even though they didn't have a bunch of sacks. Uh.
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: And and you got some turnovers. So I was real
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: pleased with the defense. I was hoping, you know, for
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: a big time shutout, but I was happy with the
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: way they performed. It looks like they're headed in the
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: right direction. Yeah, I agree with you. I love the
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: way the defense played. I go back to twenty thirteen.
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: You know, when Russell was really getting going. He had
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: to manage the game. He had a defense who's gonna
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: get it done. You just don't lose this game for us.
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: I feel like that's how it is with the defense.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: Now you have an offense that's gonna put up points. Defense, Hey,
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: just make a play when we need you to make
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: a play, and the offense will take care of the rest. Yeah.
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: And if they can keep this trend of getting turnovers,
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: you know, and getting extra extra um uh series, you know,
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: steal in a series for the offense, then all the better.
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: So if they if they're giving up yards and like
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: he said that, the thing that matters is is storing,
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: so they're they're they're giving up less points than the story.
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: So you're gonna win in those situations. But if they
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: can do that and get the ball back to Russell, uh,
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: then then you it kind of you can you can
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: take some of the play on the defense that's not
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: so great as they as they start to come along,
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: and I think they're going to be a bend but
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: not break defense, and they're gonna be a defense that's
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: going to be opportunistic and get the ball back to Russell.
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: And I think those things will then contribute to the
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: victors in a way. We're not used to stand around
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: here because we're always defense first. But like you said,
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: this offense is just on a whole other level, dude.
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: Like and I'm not just saying offenses for Seattle's history,
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: I'm saying for the entire league. You know, it's just
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: an offense that's really on fire, that's flicking on all levels.
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: And like I said, when you got a guy like
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: Russell's making all the right decisions, that just makes it
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: all all the better for the offense. All right, Hawks
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: are fing No. Now let's move on to the Vikings.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: Last one I got for you. If they be the Vikings,
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: this will be the first time the Hawks are five
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: in oh for the first time enfranchise history. Now, Vicers
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: are struggling a bit, but they still have cousins. You
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: still got feeling. You still got Dalvin cook. Um, you
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: have that rookie Justin Jeffreys over there that's playing. How
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: Horton isn't to go five and old? And do you
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: think they can handle this Vikings team? I think that,
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: Like you know, this past week, they kept saying that, um,
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: that the Dolphins game might be a trap game. And
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: I don't necessarily believe in the trap game thing, but
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: if there was gonna be one for the Seahawks, I
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: think it might be the Vikings just because they are
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: better than their records. They have some players that can
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: that can really explode. Kirk Cousins is capable of having
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: like really solid games. And then on the defense, they
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: have some dudes a product that can get after the
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: quarterback that their secondary is usually pretty good. They have
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: two of the top safeties in the league. But but
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: they just haven't been playing well and so this could
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: be for them. You know, it could be a game
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: where they just kind of turn it on and it
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: becomes a different monster to deal with. But I do
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: think that the Seahawks should win. I think they should
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: feel at this point if you can go undefeated in
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: the in what pet normally calls like the first quarter
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: of the season, So this would be like, I guess,
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: one game into the second quarter. If you can go
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: into that been undefeated, then shoot, why not? Brother? Like
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: if you go into the by bye week feeling good relatively,
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: you know you got some some duds that are mixed
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: up that can get healthy and come back for the
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: stretch run. So you still have Arizona twice and San
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: Francisco twice and the Rams, so they could be ready
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: for the stretch run. Man, I think you. I mean,
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: obviously that's the best case scenario. But but but if
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: they if they lost, I wouldn't be mad either. I
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: feel you, Ray four no going for five. Appreciate you
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: taking time, big homie. Yeah always brother life here from you,
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: all right, Nasa Choby, what's good, bump Man. Victory Monday
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: is always the best thing in the vMac. We got
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: another one. A lot of people are gonna complain about
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: stuff and be negative on this victory Monday, but you're
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: not gonna ran them my parade, Bump. No one's going
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: to wins or wins, and you'll take them any time
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: you can get them. In the NFL won't take them anyway.
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: You can get them. Now, let's see how they got
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: this win. What happened? See what happened at first? What
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: had happened was on hawkdock. What happened was the Hawks
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: are foreign O. Last time they did that was twenty thirteen.
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: They've never gone five and oh they're going for five
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: and oh and like we talked about with Ray, I
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: don't care about all style points, man, I just want
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: to w did the defense play better? Yes? Did the
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: offense not perform at what we're used to seeing, which
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: was a ridiculous level. Yes? But did they go down
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: to Florida, the longest flight in America, went down there,
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: got it done, made it home relatively safely, not too
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: many injuries. I'll take that any day of the week. Oh,
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: no question about it. And that's the thing, like people
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: have a kind of this misconception that every good team
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: has to win blowout games every week. It's got to
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: be convincing every week. It's got to be perfect or offense,
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: perfect on defense, perfect on special teams. But reality, it's
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: the NFL that doesn't exist. You mentioned in twenty thirteen,
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: people forget the biggest misconception of that Super Bowl championship
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: team was that every game was like the Super Bowl,
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: and it was not. It was not. They were down
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: twenty one zero to a bad Tampa Bay team. They
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: had times where they couldn't stop the run. They had
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: to come back. They're playing Houston there, down twenty one
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: to three, had to have this crazy comeback. So even
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: in the best team in franchise history, things didn't always
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: go perfect. But again, we'll take that because the NFL
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: and four and oh is great. In my book, four
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: and oh is good on any level. I don't care
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: for youth football, middle school, high school, college, four and oh.
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: It's four and O, and you will take that end.
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: A reason why they're four and oh at least as
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: of late, is my man Ryan Neil close the game
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: out against the Cowboys with a pick, starts the game
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: off with the Miami Dolphins with a pick, smacks Miles
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: gasket as nice to see this young man play at
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: a high level. Got his first start. Now, Unfortunately, Jamal
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: Adams is gonna get healthy and there's no way you're
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: gonna keep him in over Jamal Adams, but he might
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: have earned himself some playing time, all right, Bump, I'd
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: be remissed if we didn't play this highlight here from
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: the best play by play man in the game, Steve Rabel.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: As we were just laying in the lumber on Sunday,
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: third down in thirteen, here comes the blitz, a swing
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: pass near signing. Oh my goodness, Neil comes up and
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: just on loads on Gasking. What a blast. As they
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: tried to set up a little flare passing the left
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: flat and Neil diagnosed it and came out of the
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: secondary to just blow up Casking incomplete. Do I have
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: to say that? And now I believe a field goal
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: attempt is upcoming? Wow, what a shot. It's just great
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: to see how well he's playing right now. I mean
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: to be thrown into the fire. Last week, you get
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: a pick against Dallas, you win the game, and to
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: come out this very next week get your first NFL start. See,
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: you've had a full week to prepare. But now you
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: have time to think about stuff. Now you have time
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: to get nervous. Now you're going down to Miami. Like
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: you mentioned, the long flight, the weather was super hot,
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: so it was great to see him come out right away,
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: gets a pick on the first drive, comes down and
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: smack smiles Gasking and just playing with that energy, and
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: I think the defense needed that spark to start today. Yeah,
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: and we spoke to Pete Carroll early today. He said
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: he didn't just have those two plays like he was
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: great and run fits. He was good at disguising things.
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: He said, he was really prepared. And yes, Neil deserves
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: that love. But I'm gonna give some love to the
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: coaching staff too, because they pulled him aside. I'm sure
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: they made sure he knew what he was doing, made
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: him comfortable out there. If if you are not comfortable
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: on a football field, you're not gonna make plays. And
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: he definitely felt or seemed like he was comfortable out there.
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: Now we talk about Ryan Fitzpatrick, he could get it done. Yeah,
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: a couple of big runs. We talked about his his
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: low key athleticism, but we also mentioned he's going to
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: turn the ball over. That's exactly what we saw. Yeah. Absolutely,
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: it was great to see Shaquille Griffin. We'll talk about
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: him and playmakers make a big play. It was great
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: to see, like we just mentioned, Ryan Neil get an
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: interception and honestly, man, we could have had a lot more. So. Yeah,
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: he did what we thought he was gonna do he's
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: gonna He made a couple throws. He didn't play horribly,
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: but he did what we thought we're gonna do, and
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: it was good to see the Seahawks take advantage of
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: those opportunities. Must do that. They are second in the
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: league when it comes to turnovers, So yes, you can
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: give us the big ours. But if you are turning
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: the ball over giving it to your offense a good
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: field position, good things are going to happen. All Right,
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: DK Metcalf another great performance. Now, the thing that impressed
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: me the most about DK was late in the game
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: that smoke screen that they ran made a guy miss,
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: got his knees. Now, I haven't seen him make a
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: guy miss. That's I didn't think that was part of
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: his game. That's not what he does. Big dude gonna
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: run you over him and get some yat. But he
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: made a guy miss. This guy every week it seems
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: like he does something to him, like okay, adding something
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: to the arsenal. Yeah, like you mentioned, whether it's route running,
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: whether it's just being physical and running a dude over,
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: whether it's making a mistake and coming back and making
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: up for that mistake. I mean, honestly, we know DK
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: metcalf is the probably the most physically gifted wide receiver
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: I've ever seen. Not talking about his production yet, but
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: we know that about him. The fact that he's doing
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: all the little things each and every week to get
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: to where he's at is pretty great. Man, man, I
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: can't now, this is what I want to see next
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: out of DK. I can't wait to see him off
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage because right now he's so big,
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: he just runs through guys. Get off of me, little man.
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: I can't wait till he gets off the line shakes
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: the dude cleans them up with his hands like once
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: he starts taking care of the little things like that.
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: Goodness gracious, this league better watch out. So let's switch
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: over to the defense. All right. They still gave up
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: four hundred and fifteen yards, but they kept everything in front.
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: Only two plays over twenty yards. This is the type
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: of defense that will win ball games for you. Like
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: I mentioned earlier, they are the game managers. Now. Just
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: don't give up the huge plays, calls turnovers, don't let
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: the quarterback throw for four hundred and seventy five yards.
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: I think they're turning a corner and they did it.
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: With some backups out there well. And the great thing too,
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: is the explosive plays. You look at Pete has all
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: his big game goals right and turnover battle special teams
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: things like that. One of them is giving up explosive plays.
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: And each of the first three weeks of the year,
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: the Seahawks were pretty bad at it. We're giving up
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: over ten explosive plays a game, which is just unacceptable.
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: And Pete Carroll's defense, so it was great to see that.
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: And honestly, man, here's the deal about our defense bump.
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: We're just probably never going to statistically be a top
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: five or top ten defense. Okay, the damage has kind
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: of already been done. It reminds me of when I
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: was in college. If you have a bad semester with
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: your grades right, you can have a great rest of
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: your college career, but your humutive GPA is messed up
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: from that bad semester. So the damage has been done
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: statistically for the Seahawk defense through the first four weeks.
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: I think they can get there, and they're already improving.
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: It's not gonna look as good as people wanted to
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: see on paper, but as long as they consistently improve
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: week to week. By the end of the year, when
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: we get everyone back, this could be much different defense.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: Now I was a four old student, as I can't
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: relate to that at all. You know, damn? All right,
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: come on now, you already know, you already know. Okay.
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: Another strong performance by Ugo Amadi continues to impress. I
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: look at him, he looks again comfortable. That's what I
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: look at when I'm critiquing guys. I want to say,
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: does he believe in what he's seemed? Is he flying
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: to the football? What's his alignment assignment looking like? And
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: I'm looking at Google and I see a guy who
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: won is taking advantage of an opportunity unfortunately provided because
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: Marky's Blair is out. But he's taking this opportunity. He's going.
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: He looks good out there. He's a for sure tackler.
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: He's getting his hands on the football. I like what
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: I'm seeing. Yeah, No, I love him. He's been good
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: and run fits. He's been great in coverage. He hasn't
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: been beat over the top. He talked about last year.
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: He was in on the play against Green Bay on
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: two of the big plays on their last drive to
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: kind of sealed that game. And he kind of talked
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: about at some point this year. I forgot what interview
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: it was, but how that kind of stuck with him
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: all offseason and he's talking about training and how he
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: can get better, and it was it was great to
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: see him when he's behind Markie's blair to continue to
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: put that work in because he stepped in and he's
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: ready to go. So it's cool to see him stay
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: ready so you never have to get ready. And he's
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: been saying, well, nothing like experience. Now the Hawks held
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: the Dolphins to field goals instead of touchdowns. When I
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: was a coach and my defense held an offense who
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: was moving the ball to a field goal, the best
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: thing I could put it on the foot. You're yelling
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: now to make this offense put it on the foot. Now,
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: you would love to not have them score it off,
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: but that's not realistic. I don't know any defense that
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: shut every team out. Teams are gonna move the ball,
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: but once you get into a certain part of the field, man,
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: you'll take three points. You've been thinking, Okay, let's just
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: hold him to three right now. That defends it exactly
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: that well, especially because this offense is gonna put up
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: points So if they're getting three and we're getting seven,
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: I mean, to the math, we're gonna win the football game.
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: So it's a win every time. This is the NFL.
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: Teams are gonna move the ball a little bit between
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: the twenties, but when you get right when you need
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: to in the red zone, it's great to see. And
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: what about my guy Chris Carson, Man, and I come on,
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: you got gaytor rolled. I thought maybe it was like
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: ACL mcl he's hobbling off the field. We get the
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: Monday Tuesday report that's saying he's out there doing this thing. One,
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: this dude is tough, and two, the way he was moving,
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: you would not have thought that he had the injury
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: that he had the week before. He might be the
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: toughest dude on this football team. Yeah. Man, it's probably
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: between him and Dwayne Brown. Honestly, Chris Carson has had
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: a tough injury every single year. Like we said, we
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: were scared that we're gonna lose him for the season again.
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: That man, I swear to guy like it's it's it's
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: something you just don't see anymore. He's kind of like
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: from an old school He's a different breed of dude.
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: Other guys, Hey, I gotta sit out at least a week,
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: you know, game time decision. I'm just not really feeling right,
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: and I'm over a track guy. When I get out there,
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: my body's one hundred percent. I'm not going. Chris Carson
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: the complete opposite of that. That man is gonna run
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: hard and he's gonna be out there each and every
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: single week. He was out there, took a big hit
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: at one point in the game, got the win knocked
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: out of him, came back still had two touchdowns. Chris
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: Carson just a beast man, Just a beast. I want
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: to meet his mom and his daddy. Man, they must
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: have been tough on him. Suck it up, rub some
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: dirt on it, get your butt up, and get gone.
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: We need more of that. I need more kids like that.
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: I'm also go hard on my son just because Chris
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: Carson man. All right, the m I a kid Travis
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: Homer's score in his did he go? Is he from
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: Miami or just went to school there? I thought, I'm
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: pretty sure he's from Miami. Everything I know about Travis
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: seems like a pretty Miami dude. And he played all
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: his home games at that hard Rock Stadium. So it
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: was good to see him get out there and a touchdown.
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: He scored it on too. He wasn't even the option
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: on the play was bellout. He was a bellout. If
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: if he would have if his guy would have blitzed
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: one of those backs would a blitz, he would have
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: stayed him for pass pro that's savvy football. Your guy
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: doesn't blitz. Now you can release. You sit there. You
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: look at Russell's eyes. He goes left all the way
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: to the right, back to Travis Homer, and he was
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: ready to go. Now. I scored a touchdown against USC.
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: I'm from LA and I scored a touchdown against USC
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: in the coliseum at home, in front of my boys.
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: Ain't nothing like that. I'm sure he enjoyed it. Oh
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: that's you gotta love it. So him and his and
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: DJ Dallas got his first game as well. So it's
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: cool to see the Miami kids ball out and do
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: a little some good things back at home. Man talk
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: about Quandre and that and that that. I mean, I'm
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: gonna leave it to you, dB defense talk to me. Honestly,
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: Quandre dig is probably gonna beat some counseling after this
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: first part of the season. Man, this guy's out here
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: just trying to play football. He works just like everybody else.
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: He is taught boom long arm action. He's driving down
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: on the football, he's doing everything text book, and so
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: the one that gets the Patriots. Okay, there was helmet
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: helmet contact. He was coming trying to make a football play.
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: There's no there's obviously no intent there. That was really unfortunate.
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: I still don't agree with ejection whatever it happened this week.
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: My goodness, man, you're entitled to the football, bump the
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: ball is thrown, you're entitled to drive down. And we
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: were watching the game. We thought it was gonna be
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: a passing interference because maybe he got there half a
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: second early, which I would have disagreed with in that sense.
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: But to call to call a hit on a defenseless
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: guy with contact from upstairs, I just I don't know
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: what to do anymore, man, Quandridas. Just keep balling, man.
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: Hopefully some people were helping you pick up some of
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: these fines, man, but just keep balling, because it is
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: tough to play free safety in the NFL right now. Man,
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: it's tough, and honestly, nas I think that was a.
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: They make that call because the last week they watched
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: the film, they watched the game. They're like, oh, this
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: guy's aggressive and he comes in. If it looks any
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: type of shady, we're gonna throw a flag on his guy. Quandre,
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: hold your head, you are balling, sir. Now, Alan Robinson
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: had a big time stop on third down. Darrell Taylor
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: was the guy. He's hurt, he's not available on Robson
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: has taken advantage of every opportunity that he has. Right now,
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: the young man's getting it done. I like what I'm saying. Yeah,
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: I love it too, because he's not he's not getting
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: a ton of reps um the defensive line. Obviously in
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: Miami there are switching guys out as much as possible.
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: But when he's been out there, he gets to sack
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: against the Cowboys on a clutch play to get force
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: a field goal or a miss opportunity there, and then
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: comes up at a big third down stop. So it's
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: great to see the man from Syracuse balling out. All right,
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: let's talk about who was making plays. Who's balling playmakers? Playmakers?
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: Well they make us Okay, well we could do this
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: every single week, but we have to start with number three.
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: I mean, the man is still playing at the MVP level.
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: We talked about twenty four for thirty four, three hundred
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: and sixty yards, two touchdowns, have the one interception. Now,
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna say this about the interception bump. I'll let
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: you talk about what DK did on the route they
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: brought seven. We had six in the block. One guy
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: came free off the edge, Russell kind of rushed the throw,
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: kind of threw off his back foot. dB undercuts the route. Okay,
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: good on them, good play by them. If that's the
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: one bad decision Russell made, that's probably the only bad
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: decision he's made in four games. Yeah, and he's we
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: shouldn't expect more of that. And it's impossible for him
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: to play perfect, right, He's a human being. He's gonna
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: make mistakes. I appreciate DK trying to take the bullet
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: for his boy. That's what good teammates do, especially when
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: you have a quarterback playing the way that he's playing.
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: The only thing I could say DK could have done
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: was just become the defender and try to hit the
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: ball out. But I mean, the dB ain't to play.
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: Guys are going to make plays. In this league. I
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: don't care if you're playing the Dolphins or the Bengals
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: or the Browns. They got dudes out there too. They're
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: gonna make plays. Yeah, guys get paid to play the
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: game too. Their coaches get paid a coach, So I mean,
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: you're right, guys are gonna make plays. But russ man
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: and only had two touchdowns. Let me here and say
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: that only had two touchdowns, But that brings his hold
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: up to sixteen passing touchdowns on the season, the most,
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: tied for first of all time through four games of
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: the season, sixteen touchdown passes tied with Peyton Manning. So
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: he's still set in records or time records every single week. Yep.
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: If you're a hater, stop Hayden some out time is
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: dude is balling all right. DK Metcalf had four receptions
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: four hundred and six yards. He did have a drop.
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: I don't know, do you qualify that as a drop? Me?
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: I do because I'm a receiver. I'm like I used
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: to tell my guys, you touch it, you buy it.
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: If you touch it, you catch that thing. He's a
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: big dude. But the dude who hit him got knocked
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: out the game. With a concussion. That's how strong this
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: kid is. Dude, he's a brick wall. As the dB
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: and me, I'm gonna give the guy the pass break up,
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: especially because he's you're gonna play. You're getting up and
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: waving your hands. No, get that out of here. Well,
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: unfortunately for him, he wasn't able to. But he just
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: ran into a brick wall. But no, I mean, you're right.
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: I think I think if you asked DK, he would say,
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: I need to catch that football. He holds himself at
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: a high standard. But even with that, the thing that's
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: crazy about him is he's leading the NFL and yardage
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: right now. He has sixteen receptions. I think he's tied
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: with Digs in Buffalo and buff and he has like
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: twenty four or twenty five. So he's making big plays
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: every time he gets his hand on the football, averaging
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: over twenty four yards a reception. He is eating up
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: a quarter of the field every time he catches the
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: full bought us a nice weapon a half, Chris Carson.
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: Nice to see him get going. We talked about it earlier.
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: Sixteen carries eighty yards, two touchdowns, his first rushing touchdowns
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: of the year. He has more receiving touchdowns than he
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: has rushing touchdowns. Three recessions for twenty yards a hundred
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: yards of total offense. Chris Carson is a beast. No, absolutely,
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: We've mentioned earlier. I mean, there's not a lot of
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: things you can say about the man, especially too knowing
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: that surprisingly actually call Outside had a shoulder injury, wasn't
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: able to go on Sunday, so they're a little thin.
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: As it was in the running back room. We didn't
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: know what we're going to see him coming out the injury.
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: But just to Chip called Chris Carson fashion, he's just
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: a bad He's a bad man, and he came out
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: there and did his thing. Shaquille Griffin one tackle, one intercession,
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: three passes defended. That one tackle. Now, last last week
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: he had eleven tackles, and I was searching, I'm all right, maybe, hey,
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: you know, Pete, was that a good game by him?
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: Had eleven tackles? You know, No, when a dB has
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: eleven tackles, that's never a good thing. But I was
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: reaching this week. One tackle, one interception, three passes defended.
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: He seemed like he just seemed really prepared whatever they
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: threw at him. I felt like he was reading the
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: route combinations. The way he was breaking up the passes
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: was Test Book two. One hand on the hip across
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: the body with the other hand he put on a
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: clinic no. And the thing about him is he's playing
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: with confidence. Man, He's playing with a level of confidence
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: I don't think I've ever seen him play with. Obviously,
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: last year he had a great season, really turned the corner,
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: went to the Pro Bowl. So he was already doing
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: things last year. But this year he's playing with confidence.
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: And now he's showing you can take the ball away.
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: That was the one last thing that he needed to
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: prove to show his game on his journey to hopefully
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: becoming a perennial Pro Bowl slash All Pro type defenders.
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: So he's starting to do that now. And now guys
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: are gonna start to notice that, right, QB's gonna start
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: to notice, Hey, maybe we can't throw twenty six no more. Yep,
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: get your money, shock contract year. I ain't managed baby,
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: all right, David Moore. All he does is make big plays.
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: Three receptions ninety five yards one touchdown. D mo swag
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: me and you this is our guy. Oh love me.
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: Some demo demos The man. Dude, honestly, I love him.
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: Plays that he played at a small school, I'm blanking
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: on it. I know it was a double directional school.
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: I think Division two. But Demo came out here and
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: has just been born. Anytime he's given the opportunity, he
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: makes big plays. If he's catching the football, he has
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: his hands on the ball, he has the opportunity to
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: take it to the house or make a big play.
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: And the other thing, too, is that when he caught
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: him on a little touch, bass will end around. When
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: he just shook that dude, who give me those ankles? Boy,
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: Holy smokes man, he was dead to rights and that's
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: gonna look tough on film this morning if you're in Miami.
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, all that dude has his job was
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: too contained. The email was like, nah, no container here, buddy,
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: No contain him all right. Next the old man kJ
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: Wright had eight tackles, two hits, three screens where he
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: doesn't lit the dude up, three passes defended. Probably should
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: have had two interceptions, but you can't expect anybody wearing
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: number fifty to have the greatest hands. He did have
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: three interceptions last year. He says his goal this year
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: is to get five. He could have had two this week.
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: Buddy balled out, Oh yeah, no, of course, you know
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: he's If anyone is kicking him himself, it's kJ Wright.
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: And I know his teammates are give him a hard
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: time for that, but he set the tone. He was
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: out there knocking dudes out. And you guys mentioned it
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: with Pete this morning. We mentioned it with Ray earlier.
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: It's uncanny in any level, high school, college, any division
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: in the NFL. I've never seen someone diagnosed the screen.
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: Doesn't matter what team it is, doesn't matter what scheme
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: it's coming from, doesn't matter if it's half back, a
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: tight end screen, a wide receiver, slip screen. kJ Wright
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: has some kind of spidy sense. And you better get
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: your head on swivel because you don't say in a chance,
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: because fifty is coming and he's blowing you up. He's
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: a hound all when it comes to all screens. All right,
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: let's go to the wide receiver room with the doub
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: r round up. Let's get it. Freddie Swing finds ways
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: to contribute. Every week. He's had at least one reception
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: in every game. He had two in this game. I
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: love seeing the young man get active. When the ball
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: is in his hand. He looks explosive, he's comfortable. I'm
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: gonna say by the end of this year, he's gonna
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: have twenty twenty five catches. Oh, no question about any
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: thing about him. Is he as a receiver? Obviously, you
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: know it's more than anyone. You have an idea that
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: I might get targeted on certain plays or not, but
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: you know you're not any of the top three options
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: on most plays that he's in there. But it's cool
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: to see him anytime the ball is thrown his way.
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: He's kept coming down the football. So it's good to
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: see a young kid like that continuing to get reps
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: and be put in different slots, in different positions, and
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: to show Russell that you're reliable, because that's another thing
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: you gotta do, is receiver. If you're out there dropping
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: balls to running the wrong route, you will not be
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: on the football field. So kind of developing that trust
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: with Russell Wilson, so he knows if the spot light
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: in the game, can I can trust eighteen? You know
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: who he can trust he can trust number sixteen and
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: number sixteen had a rare drop. I'm not used to
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: seeing this I just wanted to throw a flag. I'm like,
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: they must have did something a lot. He don't. He
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: don't drop the ball like that, but he did have
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: a drop. But you expect Tyler to bounce back from that.
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: Of course, Tyler, we talked about it. I promise you
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: that's gonna last time to see that all season. You
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: can you can bet that right now he's not gonna
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: drop another ball. Still bounce back with so important two
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: receptions thirty nine yards. Not the typical Tyler Locket game.
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: But Tyler is gonna bounce back. I promise you'll have
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: a big week against Minnesota. Yep. And you know who
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: had a big week, The old man, Greg Olsen probably
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: had his best game of the year. Had five receptions
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: for thirty five yards. Just reliable. We talked to Pete
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: and the one football thrown at him that he didn't
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: catch was in the end zone, but Russell Wilson threw
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: it to him and he was covered two guys on him.
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: That just shows you the trust that Russell has in
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: greg Olsen. It was fun to see the veteran get loose. Yeah. No,
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: and it started last week two. He had a big
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: fourth down reception and on the game winning driving against Dallas.
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: So he just missed a reliable man. I think, obviously
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: you know what you got with Tyler Lockett. But when
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: third downs coming down, Greg Olsen's gonna be on the
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: field because you know he's gonna be in the right spot,
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: he's gonna right route, and he's gonna do what he's
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: supposed to do. So it was good to see him
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: get going a little bit. All right, I'm gonna run
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: through these stats real quick. DK had four for one
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: on six, David Moore three for ninety five and a
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: great touchdown. Lockett was two for thirty nine. Olsen had
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: five for thirty five, Freddie Swaying two for thirty two,
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: Chris Carson three for twenty, Uncle Will dis League two
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: for fifteen, DJ Dallas another two for fifteen, Travis Homer
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: one for three. Is nice to see how many one, two, three,
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: four receivers get involved, two tight ends and three running backs.
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: Needless to say, Russell is spreading the love love what
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: we're seeing from Russ. But Bump, it is time to
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: get into the coach's corner. D Most Swag strikes again.
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: Seventeen yard touchdown pass from Russell Wilson a four man rush.
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: Russ looks right side, got a man in the end
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: zone reaching up, making me catch David Moore? Is he
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: in for the touchdown? He is David Moore in the
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: back corner of the end zone. There is a flag down, however,
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: let's see what that's all about. But David Moore reaches up,
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: makes a catch, looks down, taps his toes in the
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: back of the end zone, and the Seahawks put six
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: on the board. All right, bum what do we see
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: out of Demo and Russell Wilson on this play? Demo
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: and Russ Demo. Now, if you're if you're a corner,
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: you're ever lined up and you see Demo sware in
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: front of you, just go ahead and getting your back
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: pedal turn around because he's gonna try to run and value.
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: That is his mo That's what he does best for
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: this offense. That's exactly what he does here. I'm looking
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: at his defense. Looks like a one high defense. Looks
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: like that corner pretty much has the deep zone over there.
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: There's nothing else threatening his zone, and he just gets
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: he gets caught up in the mix. Demo does a
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: great job of getting on his toes getting outside lying
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: space on the sideline for Russell to make that throw,
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: and then it's just body control. That's how why I
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: judge how athletic dudes are, Like, how can you control
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: your body when it's in the air. How do you
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: control your body when you're running your route? Demo jumps up,
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: grabs it, looks down at his feet, does the dead legs,
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: gets in the end zone. His body control is ridiculous.
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: He's just an incredible athlete, man. I mean the balls
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: in the air, dust runs right by the dB and
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: he's just aware of where he's out on the field.
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: That's two weeks in a row where he's been aware
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: of where that pylon is and somehow finds a way
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: to get both feet down. But honestly, we gotta give
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: a lot of crescent credit to Russell Wilson on this
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: drive first fall, because this is a drive in the
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: game or his headset communication, so he's the offensive coordinator,
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: leads them on a great seventy five yard drive, gets
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: down here and then Miami, you look at his play.
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: They are not prepared to play football. There's a late substitution.
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: You have a guy running in, you have three four
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: guys not in their stance. The dB is demo starts
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: his route is flat footed, actually taking a step forward.
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: But all were ready to go, which is you just
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: said a demo is gonna run right by you. So
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: I mean they were dead and dead in the water
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: to start this. And then once he did get a
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: news back pedal, he was trailing. He doesn't his zone turns,
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: so they're in a three deep zone. But at that
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: point he needed to turn and run and give himself
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: a chance because he opens up and then it's it's
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: all she wrote. That's such a veteran right there. Russell
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: just kept it going. Saw the personnel. Let's try to
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: keep these guys on the field. If they want a substitute,
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: good for them. We're gonna catch him slipping. Russell did
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: his thing here, So Nasa Cholby, the greatest formation in
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: football is what victory formation. Let's go. Here comes the
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: Seahawk offense onto the field and the Vikings defense trutching
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: out there knowing that one kneel down and the Seahawks
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: are gonna wind the clock down and win this one.
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: It's the victory formation. On Hawk Talk, four weeks in
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: a row, we get into the victory formation. Hopefully we
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: make it five, but let's focus on the four. The
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: Hawks are now fifty nine and oh when leading by
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: four or more at halftime. This is nuts to me.
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: I would like to I'd like to know if there's
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: any other team in the NFL that has a similar
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: stat when it comes to this soul whenever up four,
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: I'm like, all right, let's get ready for the Pete
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: Carroll interview. I'm gonna start typing questions down now. Because
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: it's a rat baby. That is still every time we
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: see it, because we talk about it. It's on our
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: notes every single week. We're looking forward right before halftime.
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: We're up forward, we're not at four. That is one
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: of the craziest stats in the NFL. That's a one
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: score game in fifty nine times you wild to be
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: undefeated in That is one of the craziest stats in sports.
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: Straight up, another way, we get into this victory formation.
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: Tyler Lockett will slow down a bit for the first
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: time this year, but DK picked up the slack at
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: over one hundred yards. He just keeps performing. He's becoming
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: more and more reliable. Yep, DK is he's leading the
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: league in receiving yards, big play every single week. You
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: almost come to expect it at this point. And as
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: he continues to do that, the relationship he develop with
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: Russell Wilson this summer kind of is really just showing up.
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: It's showing up in every single week, every single game,
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: like we're seeing at DK, He's definitely turning into that
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: Pro Bowl type guy. We want to see. Who is
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: in first place in the toughest division in football thing.
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: It's a team from Seattle. You know, despite everyone wanting
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: to complain about how we are winning football games, they
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: are four and oh straight up there, four and alone
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: in first place in the best division football bump. It's
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: pretty good to see. Nice to see them doing their thing. Now.
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: They continue to win the turnover battle. That's what I
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: want people to focus on. Don't focus on the yard
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: it's given up. Don't focus on the score. They are
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: causing turnovers, like I said earlier. If they can do
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: that despite how many yards they give up, if they
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: can continue to turn the ball over, the team who
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: wins the turnover battle usually wins the football game. Oh. Absolutely,
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: turnover a huge thing. All Pete Carroll does to preach,
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: it's all about the football, and despite some of the
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: yards we're given up, it's still all about the ball.
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: We're not turning the ball over and defense is starting
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: final way create turnovers. Yep, and the run game got going.
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: Chris Carson eighty yards off of it looked like a
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: horrible injury, shows no signs of slowing down thirty two.
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: What a dude, he's getting done. Carson is a bad,
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: bad man. And of course we got to give a
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: shout out to Ryan Neil for balling out in his
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: first NFL start. Big Hits was active in the run game,
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: got his run fits an interception, so that was great
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: to see from him. And got to remind you, guys,
