0:33
Speaker 1: listening to Hawk Talk Recap edition. I'm Michael Bumpus along
0:37
Speaker 1: with the NASA chold with the Seahawks beat the forty
0:40
Speaker 1: nine ers twenty eight to twenty one, and like we
0:43
Speaker 1: always do, let's getting the trenches with Ray Roberts. It's
0:48
Speaker 1: time to go inside the trenches with former Seahawk Ray Roberts.
0:53
Speaker 1: Big Ray Hawks get the win. How are you feeling,
0:57
Speaker 1: I'm telling pretty good man. You know, like you know
0:59
Speaker 1: a win and as a win, as a win, as
1:01
Speaker 1: a win. You know, some people can get like caught
1:03
Speaker 1: up in the details of it or what it looked
1:05
Speaker 1: like or what it should have looked like. But at
1:07
Speaker 1: the end of the day, you got you got a
1:09
Speaker 1: mark in the win column and not wanting the losing column. Yeah,
1:13
Speaker 1: So this offense seems to struggle early in the game.
1:15
Speaker 1: They went five consecutive drives when they went three. Now,
1:18
Speaker 1: didn't really get things going until the last drive before
1:21
Speaker 1: the half. What did you see that allowed this offense
1:24
Speaker 1: to kind of open things up? Well early in the game,
1:27
Speaker 1: it just didn't seem like, you know, they were quickening
1:30
Speaker 1: on all the cylinders, like it was everyone took a
1:33
Speaker 1: turn in kind of having a mistake, whether it was
1:36
Speaker 1: along the offensive line or a bad throw or a
1:39
Speaker 1: bad route or what have you. But it seems like,
1:42
Speaker 1: you know, right before the half they got some rhythm going.
1:44
Speaker 1: They kind of picked up the tempo a little bit. Uh,
1:47
Speaker 1: they were able to get in the end zone and
1:48
Speaker 1: tie to tie the game up, and uh and for
1:52
Speaker 1: it had you had to go into the halftime feeling
1:54
Speaker 1: good because as bad as you had played, you were
1:57
Speaker 1: still in the game. It was a it was a time,
1:59
Speaker 1: It was a time all game, you know. And so
2:01
Speaker 1: like there was at one point there were five three
2:03
Speaker 1: and ounce in a row and three of those five
2:05
Speaker 1: three and ounce ended and sacked, So they were able
2:08
Speaker 1: to recapture some of what they're capable of doing right
2:11
Speaker 1: before the half, and they carried over into the second half.
2:14
Speaker 1: So the offense finds a way to get going. They
2:16
Speaker 1: struggle initially, but the defense it was a bimbadone break.
2:21
Speaker 1: You look at the stats and you're gonna say, man,
2:22
Speaker 1: this defense had a tough day, but really that wasn't
2:25
Speaker 1: the case. What you see with the defense, well, you
2:27
Speaker 1: know what I saw is like, uh, like I said
2:30
Speaker 1: this before, but I remember in the preseason, we're interviewing
2:33
Speaker 1: um Ben mc curvin and he said, we asked him about,
2:36
Speaker 1: you know, the coverage in the secondary and he said, hey,
2:38
Speaker 1: you know, we just all need to be a little stickier.
2:40
Speaker 1: And it seems like, uh, yesterday that the secondary was stickier, stickier.
2:45
Speaker 1: So you know, Diggs came up with an interception, Neil
2:48
Speaker 1: came off the bench and was playing with a lot
2:50
Speaker 1: of energy and and uh and being really close and
2:52
Speaker 1: around the receivers a lot. You know, um Jamal Adams
2:56
Speaker 1: had a big hit on Kittle and the end zone
2:58
Speaker 1: that dislodging from the from the foot ball, so it
3:00
Speaker 1: just seemed as if the energy was different, the stickiness
3:05
Speaker 1: to the receivers were different, and then they were able to,
3:08
Speaker 1: you know, even though Garoppolo was getting the ball out
3:10
Speaker 1: fast at times, um, we were able to get you know,
3:14
Speaker 1: some pressure on him. And then when they put in
3:16
Speaker 1: the young guy, the offense became When they put in
3:18
Speaker 1: Trey Lance, their offense became kind of one dimensional. So
3:21
Speaker 1: they picked up some yards where he kind of dropped
3:24
Speaker 1: back the pass and ran the ball, or some running
3:26
Speaker 1: plays that had for him, but it never felt like
3:28
Speaker 1: he was going to be a real threat to to
3:30
Speaker 1: what we're trying to get done on the offense, I mean,
3:33
Speaker 1: on the defense or at the end of the day.
3:34
Speaker 1: It just seemed like they chopped up a lot of yardish,
3:36
Speaker 1: but some empty yardish. But I felt at that point
3:39
Speaker 1: their defense had a handle on the game and what
3:42
Speaker 1: they were trying to get accomplished. So this segment is
3:45
Speaker 1: called getting the trenches with Big Ray. Let's go on
3:48
Speaker 1: the trenches, Man Rand the shells out. Jamarco Jones is out.
3:52
Speaker 1: Sedigo boy. He had to step in. It looked like
3:54
Speaker 1: he struggled early in the game. How did he kind
3:56
Speaker 1: of fix things? Well, you know, it was prising the
4:00
Speaker 1: guy who you know was out since the preseason and
4:03
Speaker 1: just kind of working his way back off of the
4:06
Speaker 1: injury list. And then you know, Jamarco Jones, uh, you
4:09
Speaker 1: know has issues uh to start the game with and
4:12
Speaker 1: can't play, and so here he is like his first
4:15
Speaker 1: real minutes after not playing you know, the whole preseason
4:18
Speaker 1: is in you know, live action. So early on the
4:21
Speaker 1: very first pass play, uh, you know, gave up a sack.
4:24
Speaker 1: But then after that he ended up playing you know,
4:25
Speaker 1: pretty solid football and if you go buy some of
4:28
Speaker 1: the pro football focused stuff, he was one of the
4:30
Speaker 1: higher graded uh offensive players of the game. I think
4:33
Speaker 1: he graded like in the you know, mid sixties or something, so,
4:36
Speaker 1: which isn't bad for a guy that's just basically walking
4:39
Speaker 1: out of the training room and onto the on the
4:41
Speaker 1: football field to play you know, full speed, live football
4:44
Speaker 1: against guys that can really get out to the quarterback.
4:46
Speaker 1: So hopefully some of those things will start to you know,
4:49
Speaker 1: hills themselves and we can get brand Brandon shell back.
4:52
Speaker 1: I like Cedric and I like uh Jamarco, but shell
4:56
Speaker 1: just has a different presence at right tackle. So hopefully
4:59
Speaker 1: U he can be closer to getting back this week,
5:02
Speaker 1: So the Hawses getting done on Sunday is going to
5:04
Speaker 1: be a short week. They turn around and play the
5:06
Speaker 1: Rams on Thursday night football at home. How do they
5:09
Speaker 1: keep this your favorite word, momentum going going into Thursday. Yeah,
5:15
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be. This is gonna be a
5:16
Speaker 1: big challenge on both sides of the ball in the interior,
5:20
Speaker 1: you know. And and so obviously the last time we
5:22
Speaker 1: saw the Rams and the Seahawks comment, it just did
5:25
Speaker 1: not look pleasant at all. They were running the ball
5:28
Speaker 1: on against the defense and then we couldn't block you know,
5:32
Speaker 1: Aaron Donald or or a four. They were just you know,
5:35
Speaker 1: all over the quarterback. And that was in the playoff game.
5:38
Speaker 1: So it's gonna be a challenge, and especially on a
5:41
Speaker 1: short week. So it's going to be important that the
5:43
Speaker 1: offense gets into a rhythm early. You can't start with
5:45
Speaker 1: five three and outs in three sacks to end those,
5:49
Speaker 1: so you're gonna have to, you know, get that running game,
5:51
Speaker 1: going to kind of settle the offense down. Take the
5:53
Speaker 1: underneath throws when they're there, take your shots when they're there.
5:57
Speaker 1: So it's gonna have to be a real um making
6:01
Speaker 1: the Rams defense defend the entire field. If we get
6:04
Speaker 1: one dimensional on offense, it's gonna be really tough sledding.
6:07
Speaker 1: And then on defense, I really think that, you know,
6:10
Speaker 1: the pass rush is getting better and better every week.
6:13
Speaker 1: When when Money and Woods are in there pushing the
6:15
Speaker 1: middle of the pocket, it allows those outside guys to
6:18
Speaker 1: get a little bit closer to the quarterback. You know,
6:20
Speaker 1: Daryl Taylor now has had a sack on Sunday as
6:23
Speaker 1: three sacks and four games. Carlos Dunlaps should have had
6:26
Speaker 1: two sacks and was held on both calls and only
6:29
Speaker 1: got a holding call on one of them. So they're
6:31
Speaker 1: getting they're getting closer to the quarterback. But you know,
6:34
Speaker 1: they have some weapons over there on the rams with
6:37
Speaker 1: Stafford been a new quarterback, the guy that has a
6:39
Speaker 1: big arm, and McVay seems to have more confidence in
6:42
Speaker 1: him than he had in golf. So it's going to
6:45
Speaker 1: be a challenge for this team against that team on
6:48
Speaker 1: the short week, because this game has always been a
6:51
Speaker 1: really tough get for the Seahawks. Should be a good one,
6:56
Speaker 1: but we're glad they are two and two. They can
6:57
Speaker 1: get it done against the forty nine, and you get
6:59
Speaker 1: it done on every Monday, Big Ray. Appreciate you man,
7:03
Speaker 1: Thanks for having me brother. All right, next time, Okay,
7:07
Speaker 1: let's bring in NASA Choby. Let's break this thing down.
7:09
Speaker 1: What happened, See what happened at first? What had happened
7:15
Speaker 1: was un hard knock. What had happened was bump. It's
7:20
Speaker 1: a good feeling this week, Seahawks fans. You should be excited,
7:22
Speaker 1: you should be happy. Back in the wind column. It's
7:25
Speaker 1: been a disappointing last couple of weeks for the Seahawks,
7:27
Speaker 1: but they bounced back back on the right track as
7:29
Speaker 1: they beat Timpatistico forty nine Ers twenty eight to twenty one,
7:33
Speaker 1: and honestly, bump. They just looked like a completely different
7:35
Speaker 1: team against the forty nine ers, but kind of an
7:38
Speaker 1: old Seahawks fashion. They didn't start that way. Seahawks give
7:41
Speaker 1: up in eight play, seven year one yard touchdown drive
7:44
Speaker 1: on the Niners opening possession, then went three and out
7:47
Speaker 1: on the first five drives offensively, So m it didn't
7:52
Speaker 1: It didn't look good early on. I know people are panicking.
7:54
Speaker 1: I know Seahawks Twitter as it always does. It's going insane, people.
7:57
Speaker 1: The world has fallen. We're gonna be Owen you know whatever,
8:00
Speaker 1: but no, they got things going. Late in the second quarter.
8:03
Speaker 1: Things hard to change a little bit. Had a great
8:05
Speaker 1: drive six place eighty yards and do with a twelve
8:07
Speaker 1: yard at DK Metcalf touchdown. Quandre Diggs got involved in
8:11
Speaker 1: the interception, first one of the team this season, and
8:15
Speaker 1: then they really got going in the third quarter. They
8:16
Speaker 1: had back to back scoring drives. Russell Wilson had an
8:19
Speaker 1: incredible run, still got some wiggle and then connected with
8:22
Speaker 1: Freddy Swin and another crazy play man so that this
8:25
Speaker 1: dude can still play. Man. It was really good to
8:26
Speaker 1: see them get off to a good start. Man. We
8:29
Speaker 1: saw old school Russell spinning out of a sack, finding
8:32
Speaker 1: Freddie Swain, getting those legs going, scoring a touchdown. The
8:35
Speaker 1: thing I liked about Russell Wilson's performance is that he
8:38
Speaker 1: didn't force anything, even when it was when things were slow,
8:42
Speaker 1: when you could have taken a shot you're not supposed
8:44
Speaker 1: to take, man. He took care of the football and
8:47
Speaker 1: made things happen, and the Hawks took advantage of some
8:50
Speaker 1: forty nine er mistakes. The forty nine ers fumble. You
8:52
Speaker 1: got a short field, you have to score them those situations, right,
8:55
Speaker 1: Diggs gets an interception, changes the momentum of the game,
8:58
Speaker 1: you get a short film, you punch for a touchdown.
9:01
Speaker 1: Those are what good good teams do. Paul Moyer said,
9:03
Speaker 1: He goes, man, how many teams can play this bad?
9:05
Speaker 1: All right, give up all these yards and still win
9:07
Speaker 1: a football game. I mean, the Hawks is fine ways
9:10
Speaker 1: to win, and I think it comes down to that
9:13
Speaker 1: neutral mindset that Russell's always talking about. Look, you're never down,
9:16
Speaker 1: you're never up. Just stay in the game and you'll
9:19
Speaker 1: be good to go. But Nights just couldn't get things
9:20
Speaker 1: going in the second half. We saw the rookie Trey Lance.
9:23
Speaker 1: That offense changes when he's in there. It's not that misdirection.
9:27
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take a couple of shots here. It was
9:29
Speaker 1: like who described it the best? I think someone said
9:32
Speaker 1: on the Seahawks it was like a high school football
9:34
Speaker 1: offense where you just put your best athlete in the
9:36
Speaker 1: backfield and you try to allow him to make some
9:39
Speaker 1: plays with his feet. And again the Hawks took advantage
9:42
Speaker 1: of that situation. Yeah, I think Trey Lance is incredibly athletic.
9:45
Speaker 1: I think he's going to be a good quarterback in
9:47
Speaker 1: this league. He's just clearly not ready yet, And I
9:49
Speaker 1: mean that's getting thrown in the fire like that. Coach
9:52
Speaker 1: Hannan talked all week in all season that Jimmy Garoppolos
9:55
Speaker 1: are starting quarterback. He has made that very clear. And
9:58
Speaker 1: you know, I'm sure Trey Lance isn't get the same
10:00
Speaker 1: kind of raps that Jimmy g was getting. So getting
10:02
Speaker 1: thrown out there is a tough thing for a rookie
10:04
Speaker 1: like that. But he did okay, he saw he had moments.
10:07
Speaker 1: The Seahawks helped him out with a blown coverage gifted
10:09
Speaker 1: them a touchdown there. But looking through the staff bump,
10:12
Speaker 1: it's crazy. The Niners had four hundred and fifty seven
10:15
Speaker 1: toty yards, Seahawks had two thirty four. The Niners had
10:19
Speaker 1: twenty three first down Seahawks had fourteen time and possession
10:22
Speaker 1: was much closer this week, but the Niners still had
10:24
Speaker 1: the edge thirty one to four. They had the ball
10:26
Speaker 1: for thirty one minutes forty seconds to the Seahawks twenty
10:29
Speaker 1: eight minutes and twenty seconds. But you mentioned it man turnovers.
10:33
Speaker 1: Those two turnovers are at least I think the first
10:35
Speaker 1: Digs interception the Seahawks and score off that. But it's
10:38
Speaker 1: stop points and then on the fumble they turned into
10:40
Speaker 1: a touchdown right away. So that's the thing making big plays.
10:43
Speaker 1: We've been talking about it for a couple of weeks
10:45
Speaker 1: all season. They need to get the football away from
10:47
Speaker 1: the other football team, and they did that on Sunday,
10:49
Speaker 1: and that's pretty much a big difference in the win.
10:52
Speaker 1: Two for ten on third downs. That's still gonna kill me.
10:55
Speaker 1: One of these days these hunks will be fifty percent
10:57
Speaker 1: on third down. But I guess, minute you're scoring, you
11:00
Speaker 1: do what you gotta do. I guess we have to
11:01
Speaker 1: worry about third downs. We will take a win. Let's
11:04
Speaker 1: break down somebody's playmakers, playmakers, playmakers. We always started the quarterback,
11:20
Speaker 1: and Russell Wilson did not disappoint as usually went sixteen
11:23
Speaker 1: twenty three four, one hundred forty nine yards and two touchdowns,
11:27
Speaker 1: four carries twenty six yards and one touchdown on the ground,
11:30
Speaker 1: and with his two touchdowns, Russell Wilson passed Vinny Testaverdi
11:33
Speaker 1: for seventeenth place on the NFL's all time passing touchdown
11:37
Speaker 1: list with two hundred and seventy six. Russell had a
11:40
Speaker 1: passer rating of over one ten or higher and no
11:43
Speaker 1: interceptions in each of the first four games played. Joined
11:47
Speaker 1: John Hattle of nineteen seventy three in Milt Plum nineteen sixty.
11:51
Speaker 1: For those of you that were alive, then that's the
11:54
Speaker 1: only players in the NFL history with a rating one
11:56
Speaker 1: ten or higher with no interceptions and the team's first
11:59
Speaker 1: four games. Russe is doing his thing. Man slow start,
12:01
Speaker 1: but he comes gets after it, makes the huge plays
12:04
Speaker 1: when necessary, scramble touchdown the one Freddy Swayne. So good
12:07
Speaker 1: to see Russell get the offense who started slow, kind
12:10
Speaker 1: of get themself corrected. In that second half, he passed
12:13
Speaker 1: Vinny Testaverdie Vinny played to he was like forty two
12:16
Speaker 1: years old. Ross is like Russe is like thirty two.
12:20
Speaker 1: So he's doing good things, all right, all right? Another playmaker,
12:24
Speaker 1: DK metcalf had four recessions sixty five yards of one
12:26
Speaker 1: touchdown and on that first drive, I believe he had
12:29
Speaker 1: two catches and one of his rounds. I'm seeing the
12:33
Speaker 1: evolution of dk metcalf a right. Every year. I feel
12:35
Speaker 1: like he adds something to his game. I think it
12:37
Speaker 1: was an option route that he was in the slot,
12:40
Speaker 1: an option rather than he's one on one with maybe
12:42
Speaker 1: the Nick or whoever was over it might be a
12:43
Speaker 1: safety and gives him a little shake at the top
12:46
Speaker 1: of a five yard route, goes to the inside, boom
12:48
Speaker 1: gets the football. That's a little man route. All right,
12:50
Speaker 1: that's that's that's a five eleven type rout and this
12:53
Speaker 1: guy is getting done. DK Metcalf did have a couple
12:55
Speaker 1: of drops, but he's still consistent. You know, he's still
12:59
Speaker 1: someone you can rely on. The last couple of games,
13:00
Speaker 1: he's shown that, look, I can help get his offense going.
13:03
Speaker 1: It's nice to see DK do his thing. Yeah, no,
13:05
Speaker 1: you're right. Consistency and you know, Tyler Lockett got banged
13:08
Speaker 1: up a little bit at the end of that Vikings game.
13:10
Speaker 1: But this is kind of what happened last year where
13:12
Speaker 1: those guys kind of trade off who has the big games.
13:15
Speaker 1: So Tyler came out on the season on a tear
13:17
Speaker 1: of those first two games, been a little quieter the
13:19
Speaker 1: last two, but the last two DK Metcalf has turned
13:21
Speaker 1: around and started having some good football games. Let's go
13:24
Speaker 1: to the running backs and it's it's not Chris Carson,
13:26
Speaker 1: which is shocking. You'd always assume that number thirty two.
13:28
Speaker 1: We know he runs that rock. But Alex Collins one.
13:31
Speaker 1: He was one that was a huge spark in the
13:33
Speaker 1: football game. Ten carries forty four yards in a touchdown
13:36
Speaker 1: and two receptions for thirty four yards, and yet one
13:38
Speaker 1: of the biggest receptions of the game. It was on
13:40
Speaker 1: that first scoring drive. I think it was. He went
13:42
Speaker 1: for about twenty five twenty six yards on that little
13:45
Speaker 1: dump off, and he kind of was an energizer. Bunny
13:47
Speaker 1: got things going running the football hard. You can tell
13:49
Speaker 1: that he's when he's in the games. He's working. He's
13:52
Speaker 1: in good shape. So good to see Alex Collins kind
13:54
Speaker 1: of emerge. Is that second running back. Yep, that twenty
13:58
Speaker 1: eight yard reception got things going. Turbo said of the
14:00
Speaker 1: best in the postgame, show man, he just looks different.
14:02
Speaker 1: He looked hungry. He looked like a guy who was
14:05
Speaker 1: going to take advantage of this opportunity. Alex Collins like
14:08
Speaker 1: to see him get it done. Quandre Diggs seven tackles,
14:11
Speaker 1: two passes defended, one interception, and the interception he broke
14:15
Speaker 1: it down post game nast and it was beautiful. He's like, look, man,
14:17
Speaker 1: I watched film. This is what I do. I read
14:19
Speaker 1: my keys. I saw one do this. I knew two
14:21
Speaker 1: was gonna do that. I jumped on the football. The
14:23
Speaker 1: game is easy when you study folks. The game is
14:25
Speaker 1: easy when you prepare him. Quandre has been one of
14:29
Speaker 1: the most consistent players on this defense, and I feel
14:31
Speaker 1: like we don't talk about him enough. No, he does
14:33
Speaker 1: not getting nearly love that he deserves. Quandred Diggs and
14:36
Speaker 1: obviously outstanding football player. But you mentioned it pattern recognition.
14:39
Speaker 1: He's doing stuff because he's in the film room. He's
14:41
Speaker 1: putting in the work and it's really helped kind of really,
14:45
Speaker 1: you know, balance what's going on in the secondary. There's
14:47
Speaker 1: been a lot of movement. You started the year with
14:49
Speaker 1: a bunch of guys on the roster that weren't in
14:52
Speaker 1: camp with you, so it's good to see him kind
14:54
Speaker 1: of balance out that secondary. He is the quarterback of
14:56
Speaker 1: that defense. So good to see Quandre Diggs out there
14:58
Speaker 1: making some place. Arby Goat b wags ten tackles, one
15:03
Speaker 1: pass defended. Again, it's another dead opos b wags double
15:06
Speaker 1: digit tackles. I mean, we're so fortunate to have this dude. Man,
15:10
Speaker 1: he's an anchor on this defense. He's reliable, and it's
15:14
Speaker 1: crazy that he can have ten tackles and it feels
15:17
Speaker 1: like a quiet game for him, but he just shows
15:19
Speaker 1: up and gets a job done. You know he's I
15:22
Speaker 1: mean consistency, consistency, consien consistency, Bobby Wagner. Each and every week,
15:26
Speaker 1: you can guarantee there's gonna be double digit tackles, will
15:29
Speaker 1: probably have a past fan, might throw in a sack, PB,
15:32
Speaker 1: whatever it is. Bobby Wagner is fifty four. We know
15:35
Speaker 1: he's in me Hall of Famer anchor. That defense helped.
15:38
Speaker 1: Good to see him doing his thing, getting this thing
15:39
Speaker 1: turned around. Now, bum tell me about these wide receivers.
15:44
Speaker 1: Wide receivers, like we mentioned DK four catches sixty five yards,
15:48
Speaker 1: one touchdown on eight targets. I believe he's gonna have
15:51
Speaker 1: look at that film and say, man, I could have
15:52
Speaker 1: easy one hundred yards if I make a couple of catches,
15:55
Speaker 1: But DK is gonna bounce back and do his thing.
15:57
Speaker 1: The second leading receiver was a running back with two
16:00
Speaker 1: catches thirty four yards. Alex Collins was the ender DRIs
16:04
Speaker 1: of Bunny. As you mentioned, Tyler Lockett had a quiet day.
16:07
Speaker 1: I'm just glad that this man was healthy and available
16:09
Speaker 1: to play. He had four catches twenty four yards. Freddie Swain.
16:12
Speaker 1: This is probably, I would say the most difficult touchdown
16:17
Speaker 1: of his career so far. I believe last week or
16:19
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks he had had one where they're
16:21
Speaker 1: wide open. I comes against Tennessee, wide open, blown coverage.
16:24
Speaker 1: He scores like a sixty five yard touchdown, but this
16:26
Speaker 1: one was tight on the sideline in the end zone.
16:29
Speaker 1: Had to get the toes down. Russell Wilson spinning out
16:31
Speaker 1: of things, getting done. Nax to see Freddie uncle Will
16:34
Speaker 1: had two for five, Chris Carson had one for one.
16:38
Speaker 1: Let's go to the coach's corner. Nows all right in
16:40
Speaker 1: the coaches corner. We've been talking about a little bit
16:42
Speaker 1: throughout the podcast. Russell Wilson does only what Russell Wilson
16:47
Speaker 1: gonna do. If this was Patrick Mahomes, it'd be all
16:49
Speaker 1: over Sports Center, and we've been talking about how he
16:51
Speaker 1: was the MVP. But Russell Wilson hicks up with Freddy
16:54
Speaker 1: Swain for a thirteen yard touchdown. The in motion is
16:57
Speaker 1: Swain from left to right, play fake look out, Rush
17:00
Speaker 1: tries to spin out of trouble. He does looks, he
17:01
Speaker 1: throws it nearside Richard Back Benchie catch Swaye touts down
17:06
Speaker 1: stay hooks. I don't believe it, Russell Wilson, how did
17:11
Speaker 1: you do that? In a huge trouble, spins away from
17:15
Speaker 1: the defender and throws a striks Freddy Swain in the
17:19
Speaker 1: front corner of the end zone. Russell was getting the rights,
17:23
Speaker 1: and yet he fires a shot and the Seahawks go
17:26
Speaker 1: on top a thirteen yard touchdown laser to Swain. All right,
17:32
Speaker 1: Freddie Swayin goes in motion. He's on the left side
17:35
Speaker 1: of the formation, goes in motion, showing that jet sweep
17:38
Speaker 1: look that we've been asking to see on the top
17:40
Speaker 1: of your screen. You got Will Disley in the slot.
17:42
Speaker 1: You got Tyler locket tight as the number one receiver.
17:44
Speaker 1: They run like a little crossing rub Tyler lock is
17:47
Speaker 1: gonna go inside. It's gonna attract the safety in the
17:49
Speaker 1: second level. Well, Dissy is gonna go outside, break inside
17:53
Speaker 1: of the second level defender, and Freddie Swayin kind of
17:55
Speaker 1: drifted into no man's land. You know, I think he's
17:57
Speaker 1: kind of like, all right, I look back, let me
17:59
Speaker 1: see what's going on, sees that his quarterback needs some help,
18:02
Speaker 1: and then he turns it back on, gets to the
18:04
Speaker 1: end zone has to reverse pivot out because Russell puss
18:07
Speaker 1: where only he can get it. Only he can get
18:10
Speaker 1: it the front pylon on the sideline in the back
18:12
Speaker 1: of the end zone. Freddy makes a good catch, gets
18:15
Speaker 1: the feet down, which is crucial. Nicest see Freddy sway.
18:19
Speaker 1: He's consistently showing that he can handle that number three spot. No,
18:23
Speaker 1: you absolutely love to see it too. And you mentioned
18:25
Speaker 1: it talking about you know who's gonna emerge should be
18:27
Speaker 1: that number three receiver for the football team. You mentioned it.
18:30
Speaker 1: Freddy is a great job of just helping out his
18:31
Speaker 1: quarterback when he realized it right away. Once the corner
18:34
Speaker 1: blitz is on the play and then Russell dances out
18:36
Speaker 1: of that a voice Nick Bosa, he just throws his
18:39
Speaker 1: arm up and I just love that. I love his
18:41
Speaker 1: reaction to the ball. Just like you said, pivoting getting
18:44
Speaker 1: there only where Russell's gonna find him makes a hell
18:46
Speaker 1: of a play, and that you just love to see
18:48
Speaker 1: it because that's that's scramble drill. That's if you play
18:50
Speaker 1: with Russell Wilson, you gotta know play breaks down, you
18:53
Speaker 1: gotta be ready coming back to the football helping out
18:54
Speaker 1: your quarterback. And I love to see Freddy Swayne Man.
18:57
Speaker 1: He doesn't necessarily get a lot of targets or a
18:58
Speaker 1: lot of love, but he's been there for his quarterback
19:01
Speaker 1: and he's shown that Russell Wilson can trust him because
19:04
Speaker 1: in situations like this, he makes plays. He's efficient, Fredy,
19:08
Speaker 1: keep doing what you do, baby, all right now the
19:09
Speaker 1: last two weeks now, so we didn't get in this formation. Well,
19:12
Speaker 1: let's go ahead and take Disney victory formation. Let's get
19:15
Speaker 1: it here. It comes the Seahawk offense onto the field
19:19
Speaker 1: and the Vikings defense trudging out there knowing that one
19:24
Speaker 1: meal down and the Seahawks are gonna wind the clock
19:27
Speaker 1: down and win this one. It's the victory formation on
19:31
Speaker 1: Hawk Talk. It's only been a couple of weeks, bump,
19:33
Speaker 1: but it feels like it's been a month. Man. That's
19:35
Speaker 1: what happens because we're so fortunate and used to the
19:38
Speaker 1: Seahawks winning a lot of football games around here. So
19:41
Speaker 1: we had a two week hiatus from the victory formation.
19:43
Speaker 1: But we are back. And here's the thing, man, Russell Wilson.
19:47
Speaker 1: It started with him the catalyst, doing Russell Wilson things,
19:50
Speaker 1: making plays all over the field. Three touchdowns, Alex Collin
19:53
Speaker 1: Collins providing a spark, you know, off the bench of
19:55
Speaker 1: that second running back. So good to see him emerge.
19:58
Speaker 1: And it's just good to see them bounce back. They
20:00
Speaker 1: started off slow, started the game of three five or
20:03
Speaker 1: five three and outs, were struggling offensively. It's good to
20:05
Speaker 1: see them bounce back and kind of figure it out
20:08
Speaker 1: and then scoring the third quarter. Remember two games in
20:10
Speaker 1: a row we had one drive in the third quarter.
20:12
Speaker 1: The Seahawks bounced back. They scored on multiple possessions, and
20:15
Speaker 1: it was really good to see them get that because,
20:17
Speaker 1: as we know, we didn't want to call it a
20:18
Speaker 1: must win game, but it was a must win game
20:21
Speaker 1: this early in the season, and they got done. After
20:24
Speaker 1: the fact, we're gonna call them must win all day. Yeah,
20:26
Speaker 1: before the fact, we're gonna share a cord it nah,
20:28
Speaker 1: that'll be all right, Nah. That was a must win game.
20:30
Speaker 1: Glad they gotta them then that defense man. There were
20:33
Speaker 1: times we were frustrated a bit in this game. But
20:37
Speaker 1: even with all the yards that they gained at one point,
20:40
Speaker 1: even with all the yards they were getting in the
20:41
Speaker 1: first half and the offense not moving the ball the
20:44
Speaker 1: way we wanted to, it was still seven zero. So
20:47
Speaker 1: that's why stats can for you. Sometimes you see you
20:49
Speaker 1: see the rush yards, the pass yards, like Dane, what's
20:52
Speaker 1: going on with this defense? The offense is not scored.
20:54
Speaker 1: This feels bad, but you look at the score and
20:56
Speaker 1: you're life, Okay, we're still in this ball game. That's
20:58
Speaker 1: exactly what the defense did. Now they want to turnover
21:00
Speaker 1: battle had two takeaways, no turnovers. Russell Wilson has yet
21:04
Speaker 1: to turn the football over. If you can take care
21:06
Speaker 1: of the football, the defense can take away the football.
21:09
Speaker 1: It's gonna be good. Hey man, Big week coming up,
21:13
Speaker 1: Huge week, Huge week, and we got the Rams coming
21:16
Speaker 1: into town on short week on Thursday Night football. The
21:19
Speaker 1: Rams are looking their wounds a little bit because they
21:21
Speaker 1: got smacked up by the Cardinals last yesterday, So it'll
21:24
Speaker 1: be really interesting to see it to short week. Both
21:26
Speaker 1: teams are gonna be ready to go. It's always a
21:28
Speaker 1: battle against the Rams. You know, it's a little a
21:30
Speaker 1: little bad blood. You know what I'm saying to the
21:32
Speaker 1: Seahawks from the division. Last year, put the Rams beat
21:35
Speaker 1: the Seahawks in the playoffs. Some words exchange on social media.
21:39
Speaker 1: So I'll be really excited to see this matchup on
21:41
Speaker 1: Thursday night, Thursday Night Football Primetime. Baby, we know Russell
21:45
Speaker 1: Wilson always balls out on primetime. You guys show up
21:48

Speaker 1: twenty one. Appreciate you guys. Second time, I'm Michael Bumpus.
