Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: You would be surprised how much I like that.
- 0:02Speaker 2: Ti.
- 0:03Speaker 3: That's good workout music.
- 0:04Speaker 2: I'll tell you that I'm.
- 0:06Speaker 1: With you Football Friday, sponsored by Tito's Handmade Vodka. That
- 0:11Speaker 1: would not be complete without checking in with our QB
- 0:14Speaker 1: one before the big game tomorrow night. Hugh Millan is
- 0:18Speaker 1: with us right here on Chuck and Buck in the
- 0:20Speaker 1: mornings for his weekly x's and O segment. Happy Divisional
- 0:24Speaker 1: Round of the Playoffs Friday to you, sir, Yeah, it's great,
- 0:28Speaker 1: this is awesome. I mean you just kind of relist
- 0:30Speaker 1: in these times. We don't get many number one seeds.
- 0:33Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, in fifty years of football, so you
- 0:36Speaker 3: just kind of lap it up and hopefully it's the
- 0:39Speaker 3: catalyst to propel the see ours of the Super Bowl.
- 0:42Speaker 1: Well, I'm sure our listeners have been waiting all morning
- 0:46Speaker 1: long to get your take on what this Sam Darnold
- 0:50Speaker 1: oblique injury is in your mind, So let's not beat
- 0:55Speaker 1: around the bush. What was your reaction when you heard
- 0:57Speaker 1: that news? Oh, I don't like it.
- 1:00Speaker 3: You know, I've always said the degree to which we
- 1:03Speaker 3: are concerned about an unwanted event is the product of
- 1:06Speaker 3: two factors, probability times magnitude you know, if you have
- 1:11Speaker 3: your little niece at the breakfast table and she might
- 1:15Speaker 3: spill the orange juice, you don't worry about it much.
- 1:17Speaker 3: It's probably gonna happen, as darn good chances canna happen.
- 1:19Speaker 3: It's not big magnitude. If we want to talk about
- 1:22Speaker 3: probability of Sam Darnold not being able to play a
- 1:29Speaker 3: portion of this game, it's probably low.
- 1:32Speaker 2: But if it were to.
- 1:33Speaker 3: Happen, and then you can consider the consequences of what
- 1:36Speaker 3: that means for the next week and what have you,
- 1:38Speaker 3: it's pretty big magnitude by you know, sports standards. So
- 1:43Speaker 3: I think there's a concern greater than nothing.
- 1:46Speaker 2: Yeah, well, for sure, it's greater than nothing. But I
- 1:49Speaker 2: mean it's did you ever have a time when you
- 1:51Speaker 2: can tweak your side a little bit and and felt
- 1:55Speaker 2: it or no, well, I had.
- 1:57Speaker 3: A back remember playing at the Bengals and walk around
- 2:00Speaker 3: going how the hell am I going to play in
- 2:01Speaker 3: this game? And you get in the shower and you know,
- 2:04Speaker 3: try and get the heat on it, and what have
- 2:05Speaker 3: you put the you can get injections. I think that
- 2:09Speaker 3: this would be the type of injury that he can
- 2:12Speaker 3: get ALIGHTA Kane or whatever it is, they're going to
- 2:14Speaker 3: use to numb the pain right there in the musclebelly,
- 2:18Speaker 3: soft tissue away from the tenons, presumably, so there's adrenaline.
- 2:24Speaker 3: So yeah, you can fight through it. But look, Drew
- 2:26Speaker 3: Brees had this in twenty fourteen in training camp. He
- 2:30Speaker 3: said it bothered him all through the year. He couldn't
- 2:32Speaker 3: cut loose and changed his mechanics. Quinn Ewers had this
- 2:37Speaker 3: this injury. Both of these guys were on their left side.
- 2:41Speaker 3: Quinn Ewers heard it against Michigan in twenty twenty four
- 2:46Speaker 3: thought he was gonna be okay. Played early in the
- 2:49Speaker 3: Texas San Antonio game, pulled aside, pulled himself out of
- 2:51Speaker 3: the game. I mean, guys have had to come out
- 2:53Speaker 3: of this. George Springer hate to pick a scab. Now
- 2:56Speaker 3: his was on the right side, but you know, he
- 2:58Speaker 3: missed three games of the World Series, and we alwish
- 3:01Speaker 3: he missed four. But but you know, oblique, You know
- 3:04Speaker 3: that it's a it's a twisting motion, swinging a golf balls,
- 3:08Speaker 3: excuse me, a golf club, a a a bat, all
- 3:13Speaker 3: the rotational you know, pitching, throwing, Yeah, they're all similar,
- 3:17Speaker 3: and and you need the oblique the left side, I
- 3:19Speaker 3: think is slightly worse than the right side. When the
- 3:22Speaker 3: left on the eccentric part, when you're you're you're you're
- 3:25Speaker 3: creating a little torque like you know, winding a rubber band,
- 3:28Speaker 3: not stretching rubber band, but whinding a rubber band.
- 3:31Speaker 4: Uh.
- 3:31Speaker 3: And then and then as you uh uh pull through
- 3:36Speaker 3: and you're accelerating the ball through that there's a strain
- 3:38Speaker 3: on that oblique and and and that muscle is also
- 3:42Speaker 3: used to stop. But but there could be pain, you know, before, during,
- 3:46Speaker 3: and after the release. And and I think the left
- 3:48Speaker 3: side is probably slightly worse than than having a strain
- 3:52Speaker 3: on the right side. So it's probably gonna be fine,
- 3:55Speaker 3: but it's not the state right now. Sam Darnal, let's
- 3:59Speaker 3: take him out of He said it's next to zero
- 4:02Speaker 3: that I won't play. The question is what how ripe
- 4:07Speaker 3: is it for to be exacerbated either in warm ups
- 4:10Speaker 3: or you know, in a game, you know he has
- 4:13Speaker 3: to move abruptly or look, it's on his left side,
- 4:16Speaker 3: he's standing in the pocket, if he's in a throwing position,
- 4:20Speaker 3: his hips are relatively perpendicular to the line of scrimmage.
- 4:23Speaker 3: What's what's exposed to the defense. Now he's he's gone
- 4:25Speaker 3: and told the forty nine ers it's his left side.
- 4:28Speaker 3: So now is there going to be a little extra
- 4:31Speaker 3: oomph on guys four guys on the forty nine ers
- 4:34Speaker 3: to give him a shot in that oblique?
- 4:36Speaker 2: I would think so.
- 4:37Speaker 3: I mean, I just watched the Brock Perdy tape and
- 4:39Speaker 3: i I'm from last game and Nick emon Worri got
- 4:44Speaker 3: a shot into the left side right where Brock Purdy would.
- 4:48Speaker 3: I mean, he had a hell of a blast on
- 4:50Speaker 3: Purdy and was the second hardest he took other than
- 4:53Speaker 3: that whipsaw that he took from Leonard Williams and and
- 4:57Speaker 3: Derek Hall high load him. But there was a hard
- 5:00Speaker 3: hit right in the oblique. So so this could be
- 5:03Speaker 3: exacerbated on a number of ways. So yeah, I'm kind
- 5:06Speaker 3: of holding my breath about it.
- 5:07Speaker 1: Hugh Mellen is with us x's and o's here on
- 5:10Speaker 1: this Friday brought to you by Frost Brewed Corps Light
- 5:13Speaker 1: Choose Chill. Does it affect the game plan offensively at all?
- 5:18Speaker 1: I mean, if are you gonna call the game differently
- 5:21Speaker 1: to protect him differently for this game knowing that he
- 5:25Speaker 1: has this injury, Well there.
- 5:28Speaker 3: Might be fewer boot lefts, you know, and for whatever reason,
- 5:32Speaker 3: Clint Kubiak, he's probably called more boot lefts than boot rights,
- 5:36Speaker 3: which is odd because it's the right handed quarterback the
- 5:38Speaker 3: boot or the naked meaning you fake to the right
- 5:41Speaker 3: and then darnold coming around the left side. I think
- 5:44Speaker 3: there'd be more torque if you had to line up
- 5:46Speaker 3: and get your hips, try to get a hips square
- 5:49Speaker 3: and throw those intermediate crossing routes that he's hit a
- 5:52Speaker 3: number of them on Jackson Smith and Jigba. You may
- 5:54Speaker 3: see fewer of those. You know, they'll be monitoring. Hey,
- 5:58Speaker 3: how do you feel they're not? You can drive the
- 6:01Speaker 3: ball or throw the ball deep. Uh, you know it's
- 6:04Speaker 3: possible that he could play at something less than one
- 6:06Speaker 3: hundred percent. You kind of manage it. Don't have to
- 6:09Speaker 3: crank it up and torqu it. Uh you know, he
- 6:12Speaker 3: he could, He could, you know, throw checkdowns where he
- 6:15Speaker 3: otherwise would want to rip the ball. Yeah, I mean
- 6:18Speaker 3: I I've had to operate sometimes with that where I
- 6:21Speaker 3: know I can't crank it up due to some pain issues.
- 6:24Speaker 3: I had a right shoulder uh separation, and and it
- 6:29Speaker 3: was it was it was last last week of training camp.
- 6:34Speaker 3: And and uh, I didn't want to tell the training
- 6:36Speaker 3: staff because I didn't want him to go get a
- 6:38Speaker 3: new quarterback. And so we go on to the first
- 6:40Speaker 3: week I'm playing for the Broncos and always finally the
- 6:44Speaker 3: only the only two games in my life where I go, God,
- 6:46Speaker 3: I don't hope I don't play because I knew I wasn't,
- 6:50Speaker 3: you know, you know, I kind of managed the week
- 6:51Speaker 3: where I just kind of threw checkdowns, didn't really tell anybody,
- 6:54Speaker 3: and and uh then I was fine the next week,
- 6:57Speaker 3: but it it errate I.
- 6:58Speaker 2: I divert.
- 6:59Speaker 3: But there there is a point to that story that
- 7:02Speaker 3: that here I was knowing that I couldn't rip the ball,
- 7:06Speaker 3: which is what Sam Darnold may be, and yet he
- 7:10Speaker 3: made he still may play and just never elect to
- 7:13Speaker 3: take a shot where he's ripping the ball. Now, one
- 7:17Speaker 3: thing it'll be interesting to see is Jaylen Milroll. Is
- 7:21Speaker 3: he activated in this game for numerous games he has
- 7:25Speaker 3: not been activated. That would obviously take a roster spot
- 7:27Speaker 3: from presumably a special team what have you, But that
- 7:31Speaker 3: might be an indication an hour before the game as
- 7:33Speaker 3: to how they feel about this.
- 7:36Speaker 2: Hugh, I got a story I'm wondering if this is
- 7:39Speaker 2: possible in the NFL. I mean I was in Double
- 7:43Speaker 2: A one year. I was playing in Orlando and there
- 7:45Speaker 2: was I was out the night before with a guy
- 7:48Speaker 2: and he was actually a dude that I knew that
- 7:50Speaker 2: was going to be pitching against us the next day.
- 7:52Speaker 2: I ended up telling him he kind of was dicing
- 7:55Speaker 2: me up. He could beat me with a slider, he
- 7:56Speaker 2: could beat me with his fastball. He through guy named
- 7:58Speaker 2: Matt White, first rounder for the Tampa Bay Rays. He
- 8:00Speaker 2: could throw ninety eight ninety nine. So we're out having beers.
- 8:04Speaker 2: And I ended up telling him on purpose, I said, man,
- 8:06Speaker 2: I jammed. I got jammed not long ago. My hand,
- 8:10Speaker 2: that meat meaty part between your thumb and your index
- 8:13Speaker 2: finger is all bruised. I mean, it just killed me.
- 8:16Speaker 2: I ended up saying it to him on purpose, knowing
- 8:18Speaker 2: that the next day he was going to try to
- 8:20Speaker 2: jam me. Well, I about killed Mickey Mouse at Disney World.
- 8:23Speaker 2: I hit the ball about five hundred and fifty feet
- 8:26Speaker 2: to the left field. I'm wondering, is there a chance?
- 8:29Speaker 2: Is there a chance? Honestly, I would think that that
- 8:32Speaker 2: the forty nine ers, I think, okay, we gave up
- 8:34Speaker 2: one hundred and eighty yards on the ground to these guys.
- 8:37Speaker 2: But we can't necessarily just you know, you know, turn
- 8:39Speaker 2: a blind eye to Jackson Smith and jibblin this passing game.
- 8:42Speaker 2: Is there a chance that NFL teams a coach that
- 8:45Speaker 2: do we have a genius of a coach and quarterback
- 8:47Speaker 2: that be like, hey, how about this idea. Let's play
- 8:50Speaker 2: this little game. Play that up a little bit. They
- 8:52Speaker 2: might go single safety, and would you just whoop them
- 8:54Speaker 2: over the top real quick.
- 8:58Speaker 3: I love the story that you told. I mean anything
- 9:01Speaker 3: that involves both five hundred and fifty feet home runs
- 9:03Speaker 3: and Mickey Mouse. That's the foundation of a great story,
- 9:08Speaker 3: and I'd love to play. I would say no, not
- 9:11Speaker 3: just no, not even remotely no, because that would involve
- 9:16Speaker 3: because what are some of the other facts we know
- 9:18Speaker 3: about this? Maybe the chatter? Maybe you might get me
- 9:21Speaker 3: to buy along. I would say, they wouldn't waste their time.
- 9:24Speaker 3: But they're not gonna put Drew lock in for one
- 9:29Speaker 3: extra rep on the Friday practice. Say well, it's Thursday,
- 9:33Speaker 3: Well it's in their parlance it's Friday, because it's two
- 9:36Speaker 3: days before. They're not gonna take you know, that's red
- 9:38Speaker 3: zone day. That short yardage, goal line day. It's two
- 9:41Speaker 3: minute day. You know they're not gonna let Drew Locke
- 9:45Speaker 3: take one extra snap from Sam Darnold for the purposes
- 9:50Speaker 3: of trying to play a game in that regard. That
- 9:53Speaker 3: would be my take.
- 9:54Speaker 2: I make it.
- 9:55Speaker 3: I could be wrong. I've been wrong many times before,
- 9:58Speaker 3: but I would think no on that. Well, they might
- 10:01Speaker 3: do it in the future. They heard that story. More
- 10:04Speaker 3: Disney characters just be playing the game one on one.
- 10:07Speaker 3: It's not me doing taking an entire organization by hostage.
- 10:11Speaker 1: I think what he was trying to tell you is
- 10:13Speaker 1: that your whole Disney story was goofy.
- 10:18Speaker 2: But it works.
- 10:23Speaker 1: With Hugh Millon brought to you by frostbrewed cors Light.
- 10:26Speaker 1: All Right, you brought up Drew Locke. If this thing,
- 10:30Speaker 1: I mean, let's the worst case scenario has to be
- 10:32Speaker 1: added over to Drew Lock. How do you feel about
- 10:34Speaker 1: Drew Lock winning this game Saturday? How do you feel
- 10:36Speaker 1: about Drew Lock being the Super Bowl champion quarterback?
- 10:40Speaker 3: Well, it's happened. Uh, Jeff Hostetler won a Super Bowl,
- 10:44Speaker 3: did he not? In relief of Phil Simms, we can
- 10:48Speaker 3: go back to uh. Was Earl Morral He played right
- 10:52Speaker 3: up until I think Bob Greasy finished the Super Bowl,
- 10:54Speaker 3: but Earl Moral played through the playoffs. Uh you know,
- 10:58Speaker 3: you know, I mean if I'm dragging out night seventy
- 11:00Speaker 3: two stuff or one whatever it was. You know, I'm
- 11:04Speaker 3: sure there's other examples. But look, I think Drew Lock
- 11:10Speaker 3: is a talented guy. He has starter traits. Let me
- 11:12Speaker 3: say again, I would argue absolutely, he's tall, he moves great,
- 11:17Speaker 3: he's got velocity on the football. You could argue he's
- 11:20Speaker 3: got a quicker release than most, even Sam Darnolds. So
- 11:24Speaker 3: this has got a guy who is not without traits.
- 11:27Speaker 3: I know that's a double negative. Now why is he
- 11:30Speaker 3: not a starting quarterback? Well, the reason why most talented
- 11:33Speaker 3: guys aren't starting quarterbacks it's because of how you process.
- 11:38Speaker 3: That's the hard part of playing the NFL is can
- 11:41Speaker 3: you see the movie before it plays? What's your feel
- 11:45Speaker 3: for being anticipatory and reading defenses throw to the right
- 11:50Speaker 3: guy at the right time accurately. That's the part that
- 11:54Speaker 3: gets most guys. And that's the reason why Drew Lock
- 11:57Speaker 3: is a you know, fringe star rder slash good backup.
- 12:01Speaker 3: But yes, I think that they could win, certainly the
- 12:05Speaker 3: forty nine er game the degree of difficulty presumably would
- 12:08Speaker 3: would rise next week, and and and who knows who
- 12:12Speaker 3: you'd play in the super Presumably I think they can
- 12:14Speaker 3: beat the forty nine ers.
- 12:16Speaker 2: With Drew Locke.
- 12:17Speaker 3: Uh, just because we remember how dominant the defense was
- 12:22Speaker 3: and the degree to which San Francisco's beat up.
- 12:25Speaker 1: All right, so we discussed worst case scenario, Let's discuss
- 12:27Speaker 1: the best case scenario. Sam Darnold is just fine tomorrow night,
- 12:31Speaker 1: zero restrictions. He's making every throw and hasn't isn't having
- 12:36Speaker 1: any difficulty. It's as if he just had a bad
- 12:39Speaker 1: bit of beef and he passed it overnight and everything
- 12:42Speaker 1: is just fine. So what kind of game plan do.
- 12:45Speaker 3: You walk a Disney character into that?
- 12:48Speaker 1: So I'm sorry, now you're sleep What kind of game
- 12:53Speaker 1: plan would you like to see them implement? You want
- 12:55Speaker 1: to see an aggressive one? Do you want to see
- 12:56Speaker 1: a conservative one? Considering how well your defense is playing.
- 13:00Speaker 1: If Sam Donald is one hundred percent, I mean, he's
- 13:03Speaker 1: as good as Donald Duck out there, what are you
- 13:06Speaker 1: gonna do with Sam and your game plan tomorrow night? Well,
- 13:11Speaker 1: I would like.
- 13:12Speaker 3: To see them open it up, particularly you know in
- 13:15Speaker 3: the red zone. You know here you got Donald in
- 13:18Speaker 3: the red zone, fringe area that's just outside the red
- 13:21Speaker 3: zone on plays where the balls in the air fifteen
- 13:26Speaker 3: yards or more, you know, when they're taking some shots
- 13:28Speaker 3: down in there. Donald has one hundred and forty five
- 13:31Speaker 3: passer rating, that's number one in the NFL. But while
- 13:35Speaker 3: the Rams have thirty nine of those shots, the Seahawks
- 13:38Speaker 3: have just eighteen, like less, obviously less than half. So
- 13:41Speaker 3: so I think there's some areas that that Seattle can
- 13:45Speaker 3: crank it up. I mean, the Seahorks are number one
- 13:47Speaker 3: in the NFL, and in completions fifty yards or more
- 13:51Speaker 3: they have seven on the seat and the forty nine
- 13:53Speaker 3: ers only have one set Seattle's that's first place, but
- 13:57Speaker 3: they haven't done it since the Tennessee game and Week twelve,
- 14:00Speaker 3: So so I think some of those big plays have
- 14:03Speaker 3: dried up. The point scoring has has been diminished, and
- 14:08Speaker 3: I would rather think that because of the defensive dominance,
- 14:13Speaker 3: that you can afford to be aggressive offensively, and particularly
- 14:18Speaker 3: in the red zone where they've been struggling. They've you know,
- 14:20Speaker 3: they've they've been averaging two point two yards per rush
- 14:23Speaker 3: on first down. Everything's kind of crowded down there. Maybe
- 14:27Speaker 3: it's better to go play acts and take a shot
- 14:29Speaker 3: to the back of the end zone. And so in
- 14:31Speaker 3: an event, I would like to see them more aggressive.
- 14:34Speaker 3: I don't think that Mike McDonald always feels that way.
- 14:39Speaker 3: I have good reason to believe that There's been times,
- 14:43Speaker 3: including the forty nine er game, where McDonald gets on
- 14:45Speaker 3: the headset and and kind of says, look, we are
- 14:49Speaker 3: playing so great on defense.
- 14:51Speaker 1: We're good.
- 14:52Speaker 3: Just don't gumb this thing up, and we're gonna win
- 14:54Speaker 3: this football game. So that that has been in play,
- 14:58Speaker 3: and it may be in play tomorrow night.
- 15:01Speaker 2: Well it sounds like maybe somebody needs to kiss Clint Kubiak,
- 15:05Speaker 2: like sleeping beauty, get him to wake up. Oh, I mean,
- 15:09Speaker 2: I am, I'm curious, that's all. If I'm super dope
- 15:14Speaker 2: when it comes to Disney the time of possession, I
- 15:18Speaker 2: understand that it's not just some stat that. I mean,
- 15:21Speaker 2: it has something to do with your third down efficiency
- 15:23Speaker 2: and all kinds of different stuff. And yet if you
- 15:25Speaker 2: look at the two games, one was all the way
- 15:27Speaker 2: back in Week one versus a week eighteen, that there
- 15:31Speaker 2: are almost mirror images of each other as far as
- 15:33Speaker 2: who controlled it. I mean, I think that a big
- 15:35Speaker 2: part of beating San Francisco, especially if you dominate them
- 15:38Speaker 2: and do it decisively like they did in week eighteen,
- 15:43Speaker 2: is not having Shanahan get a whole bunch of cracks
- 15:46Speaker 2: at that thing, and so you staying on the field
- 15:49Speaker 2: and you getting them off the field as soon as possible.
- 15:52Speaker 2: What would be your most important thing? Would it be
- 15:54Speaker 2: running the ball efficiently? Or I mean it's just as
- 15:57Speaker 2: simple as getting into third and short and manageible. What's
- 16:01Speaker 2: the most important thing for this team to be able
- 16:04Speaker 2: to stay on the field offensively and possibly win that
- 16:07Speaker 2: time of possession battle?
- 16:08Speaker 1: Yeah? I don't.
- 16:10Speaker 3: I think that winning the time of possession battle, You know,
- 16:14Speaker 3: it becomes a final outcome that you don't really set
- 16:20Speaker 3: your sights on. In my opinion. You go and you say, look,
- 16:25Speaker 3: the best thing you can do offensively is what stays
- 16:27Speaker 3: on the field. The worst thing that kills time of
- 16:29Speaker 3: possession is your punter. Now, time of possession is a
- 16:33Speaker 3: stat that you say, okay, what do we glean from that, Well,
- 16:37Speaker 3: it's an offensive defense statistic. There's sometimes I look at
- 16:41Speaker 3: the drive chart and everybody's going three and out or
- 16:45Speaker 3: four and out, and then you can have equal time
- 16:47Speaker 3: of possession. And then there's other times where you say, well,
- 16:50Speaker 3: everybody's got eight, ten, eleven play drives, and then the
- 16:54Speaker 3: time of possessions even well, now those are two totally
- 16:57Speaker 3: different football games, right, And then other times, you know,
- 17:01Speaker 3: some of the best offenses they don't have great time
- 17:03Speaker 3: of possession because they get such big plays and they score.
- 17:06Speaker 3: They're like lightning strikes. And so I think for Seattle, yes,
- 17:12Speaker 3: we can say that there's going to be a correlation
- 17:14Speaker 3: time of possession.
- 17:15Speaker 2: For sure.
- 17:16Speaker 3: You know they want Seattle wants to run the football,
- 17:18Speaker 3: take advantage of that defense, limit the big plays make
- 17:22Speaker 3: the forty nine ers have to march. But but I
- 17:27Speaker 3: don't know that they should be fixated on that. I
- 17:29Speaker 3: think that the key is that I said, the last
- 17:34Speaker 3: time they played, the Seahawks out forty nine or the
- 17:37Speaker 3: forty nine ers, And one stat that just keeps coming
- 17:40Speaker 3: to me. I think of the forty nine ers, they're
- 17:42Speaker 3: twenty one personnel team. They've got a Hall of Fame
- 17:44Speaker 3: fullback in U Stephan. He's been in the Pro Bowl
- 17:46Speaker 3: ten times. That means he's probably going to be in Canton.
- 17:50Speaker 3: And you know when they've had George Kittle, they just
- 17:53Speaker 3: want to get They want to get into the nifirmation
- 17:56Speaker 3: and run the lead, put an next of blocker at
- 18:01Speaker 3: the point of attack, and that's what they do, you know.
- 18:03Speaker 3: And yet in the last game, the forty nine Ers
- 18:07Speaker 3: had three running plays under center with the fullback in
- 18:11Speaker 3: the backfield. Seattle had thirty three. And I mean they
- 18:16Speaker 3: eleven x to them now, and so now I beg
- 18:20Speaker 3: your pardon. That wasn't all with a fullback, but getting
- 18:24Speaker 3: under center and running the football thirty three to three.
- 18:28Speaker 3: And so at any event, they just adopted this physicality
- 18:34Speaker 3: to their game plan and their execution, and they just
- 18:38Speaker 3: out physicaled them in every way. The forty nine Ers
- 18:41Speaker 3: had ten runs to running backs and Seattle played with
- 18:46Speaker 3: a light box on nine of those ten. They had
- 18:50Speaker 3: the both safeties back away. They handled the running game
- 18:54Speaker 3: with just the front seven. And that was with a
- 18:58Speaker 3: nickel because because I've been telling you that nick em
- 19:03Speaker 3: and Warriy, if I was studying the sax, he's just
- 19:05Speaker 3: a nickel. Sam he doesn't play in the back end.
- 19:08Speaker 3: And he's got five plays this year, a big pardon,
- 19:11Speaker 3: six plays this year where he's been a back half safety.
- 19:15Speaker 3: Cam Chancellor, his strong safety counterpart in twenty thirteen, the
- 19:19Speaker 3: Super Bowl year, he had I think about four hundred
- 19:22Speaker 3: and ten, well over four hundred snaps as a post safety.
- 19:25Speaker 3: They're different positions, Nick am and Worry is a Sam linebacker.
- 19:28Speaker 3: So anyway, they have this front seven, and I have
- 19:33Speaker 3: studied this tape many times because I want to come
- 19:35Speaker 3: on the radio and I say, how do they stop
- 19:36Speaker 3: the run? And at first I go, you know what,
- 19:38Speaker 3: it's a defensive tackles. It's Leonard Russell and it's Byron Murphy. Damn,
- 19:42Speaker 3: those guys don't get moved. That's the basis of it.
- 19:45Speaker 3: And then you know, I go, well, wait a minute.
- 19:47Speaker 3: The defensive ends are doing a great job of slipping blocks.
- 19:50Speaker 3: They're active. And then I'm like, well, Ernest Jones is
- 19:54Speaker 3: he's running around, and man, Drake Thomas, he's a playmaker.
- 19:57Speaker 3: Look at emon Like every time I try to and say, well,
- 20:00Speaker 3: I've got the answer, I'm gonna take it to ks Yard.
- 20:03Speaker 3: This is why they stopped the run. I just keep
- 20:05Speaker 3: finding more more elements, and I would just say all
- 20:09Speaker 3: of their front seven was dominant and they didn't need
- 20:12Speaker 3: their secondary to stop the run.
- 20:15Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, uh well, man, awesome stuff. I have
- 20:20Speaker 1: a million more questions for you, but unfortunately, uh, we
- 20:24Speaker 1: are out of time. So enjoy the weekend, enjoyed the game.
- 20:28Speaker 1: Can't wait to hear you break it down on Monday,
- 20:30Speaker 1: and it better be a victory.
- 20:33Speaker 3: Yeah you got that right, and hopefully a Sam Darnold victory.
- 20:36Speaker 2: Yeah's right.
- 20:36Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, thanks Ben, go appreciate it. There he
- 20:40Speaker 1: is the happiest analyst on Earth. One more Disney joke.
- 20:45Speaker 2: Yep, that was very good. Yeah, very good, very very good.
- 20:48Speaker 2: I mean sometimes he you know, he's breaking stuff down
- 20:51Speaker 2: and it's a beautiful thing. And other times he brings
- 20:53Speaker 2: up the beast part of how the game is gonna go.
- 20:56Speaker 1: He does really combine the two.
- 20:57Speaker 2: Yep, he's good. Yeah.

- 21:42Speaker 1: Friday to you all. It would not be Friday if
- 21:44Speaker 1: we didn't chat first with Hugh Millan and then with

- 21:55Speaker 1: legendary football coach Mike Holmgren here on Chucking Buck. I'm

- 22:00Speaker 4: Good morning, Chuck.
- 22:01Speaker 1: How's it going great? How are you you ready for
- 22:04Speaker 1: this weekend?
- 22:05Speaker 4: You know what I am? I think maybe I'm a
- 22:07Speaker 4: little too ready. It's been this game. This game is
- 22:10Speaker 4: going to be something. It's going to be something, so
- 22:13Speaker 4: I can't wait.
- 22:13Speaker 1: Yeah, well I gotta ask. I mean, it's the big
- 22:16Speaker 1: topic here today and we really don't want it to be.
- 22:19Speaker 1: But I mean, here, you spent this entire offseason, regular
- 22:23Speaker 1: season earning your one seed. You get a bye week,
- 22:26Speaker 1: so you get to really kind of rest and recover
- 22:29Speaker 1: and be as healthy as you possibly can for your
- 22:32Speaker 1: divisional round playoff game. You find out your opponent, you're
- 22:36Speaker 1: doing your preparation, you're forty eight hours away from the
- 22:40Speaker 1: actual kickoff, and all of a sudden, somebody taps you
- 22:43Speaker 1: on the shoulder and tells you that your quarterback had
- 22:46Speaker 1: to tap out a practice today because of something in
- 22:49Speaker 1: his oblique. What is your reaction to that?
- 22:53Speaker 4: Well, the first thing I had to do is look
- 22:57Speaker 4: up oblaq and what that was exactly, because yeah, because
- 23:04Speaker 4: that could be any number of things, and quite quite honestly,
- 23:07Speaker 4: I wasn't sure. So no, it's it. It popped yesterday
- 23:12Speaker 4: when I was doing the show, was Softy, and I go, gee,
- 23:16Speaker 4: was the last time was in here the story popped
- 23:19Speaker 4: about the Washington quarterbacks. So I mean, this is just
- 23:22Speaker 4: getting better and better and better. I I would be nervous,
- 23:28Speaker 4: I guess, you know, until I talked to the doctors
- 23:32Speaker 4: and they were sure of me what was going on.
- 23:36Speaker 4: But I hope he's okay. I'm I'm surprised. I was surprised.
- 23:42Speaker 4: I don't know how you guys felt. I was surprised
- 23:44Speaker 4: by the announcement, you know, by him talking about it.
- 23:50Speaker 4: But I'd say, you know what, never be surprised.
- 23:55Speaker 2: I'm with you, and I mean I think he's gonna
- 23:57Speaker 2: be fine. I don't think it was anything over the
- 23:59Speaker 2: top painful. Now we shall see, they're definitely gonna be
- 24:02Speaker 2: more interest. It's not nothing. There'll be more interest watching
- 24:05Speaker 2: him throw and see if he's win seen or anything
- 24:07Speaker 2: like that. I just have to ask, did you ever
- 24:10Speaker 2: do anything that was along the gamesmanship side of things?
- 24:15Speaker 2: I just told a story about how I tricked a
- 24:17Speaker 2: guy that I was in a face pitcher, that I
- 24:19Speaker 2: was in a face the next day, but I was.
- 24:21Speaker 2: I mean, I'm sitting here thinking myself now, the idea
- 24:23Speaker 2: of like if I was a wide receiver, I'd go
- 24:25Speaker 2: maybe go up to you and say, hey, I can
- 24:27Speaker 2: get this guy. I'm gonna act like I'm limping at
- 24:30Speaker 2: the end of one play and then give me a
- 24:31Speaker 2: go route. I'm gonna blow pass him. Did you ever
- 24:33Speaker 2: do anything that's trying to do gamesmanship like that?
- 24:38Speaker 4: I wouldn't say gamesmanship, I really wouldn't, but I told
- 24:41Speaker 4: John Taylor. I don't know if you remember John. He
- 24:43Speaker 4: was a wide receiver opposite Jerry Rice with the forty nine,
- 24:46Speaker 4: very good player and prior to the final cut and
- 24:52Speaker 4: we the assistant coach is Danny Green, and I, Danny
- 24:54Speaker 4: coach wide receivers, said this guy's really good, but they
- 24:58Speaker 4: were gonna cut him. And so, you know, we told him,
- 25:03Speaker 4: I said, in the third quarter, go down and stay down.
- 25:09Speaker 4: And then when they come out and say what's wrong, say,
- 25:12Speaker 4: I don't know, it's my back, because that that could
- 25:17Speaker 4: be any zillion things. So the longer this short of
- 25:21Speaker 4: it is, we kept him. He wound up being a provo.
- 25:24Speaker 4: You know, he wound up being a great player. So
- 25:27Speaker 4: I say, yeah, I was kind of being a little
- 25:30Speaker 4: dishonest there, but it benefited the team in the long run.
- 25:34Speaker 4: But no, what killed me. We played the Detroit Lions
- 25:38Speaker 4: Barry Sanders, Okay, and all of a sudden he's on
- 25:42Speaker 4: the He's on the doubtful list all week doubtful, which
- 25:46Speaker 4: means ninety percent of the time you can't play. That's
- 25:49Speaker 4: what that means. Yeah, Okay, all of a sudden he
- 25:53Speaker 4: shows up, he's playing. He ran for about two hundred yards.
- 25:57Speaker 4: I went to Wayne Fonts after the game, I said,
- 25:59Speaker 4: I thought he was doubtful. Well, he made quite a
- 26:02Speaker 4: recovery on Saturday.
- 26:04Speaker 2: Yeah, so exactly, I learned.
- 26:07Speaker 4: Not to believe injury reports. Honestly, I just ignored them.
- 26:12Speaker 4: I just said, okay, let's plan on them playing their
- 26:15Speaker 4: best players.
- 26:16Speaker 1: Might have had three hundred did he'd been healthy?
- 26:19Speaker 5: I know.
- 26:20Speaker 1: Oh jeez, Mike Hongrin is with us. This segment brought
- 26:26Speaker 1: to you by slab Jack R and R Foundation Specialists
- 26:29Speaker 1: and Toyota of Kirkland. Check out the entire vehicle inventory
- 26:32Speaker 1: at Toyota of Kirkland dot com or stop by the showroom.
- 26:36Speaker 1: All right, so let's say he's got something. All right,
- 26:39Speaker 1: so he's got something on his side, but he's gonna play.
- 26:44Speaker 1: I mean, he's saying there's there's pretty much no chance
- 26:46Speaker 1: that he's not going to play in this game. But
- 26:50Speaker 1: it's one of those injuries that could be aggravated. It
- 26:53Speaker 1: could be uh, you know, you could take it to
- 26:57Speaker 1: a whole new level with it. So I would ask you,
- 27:01Speaker 1: as a play caller, I mean, are you going to
- 27:03Speaker 1: change your game plan based off of this information to
- 27:07Speaker 1: try to protect him a little more than what you
- 27:10Speaker 1: originally had planned.
- 27:12Speaker 4: I think I'm gonna I'm gonna he's gonna throw some today,
- 27:16Speaker 4: even though it's a it's very light. He's gonna throw
- 27:19Speaker 4: warm ups and everything. And obviously in the game tomorrow,
- 27:23Speaker 4: and then how he feel, how's it feel? Tell me nothing,
- 27:26Speaker 4: I can't feel a thing, or I got a little
- 27:29Speaker 4: tweak here. If he tells me if there's a little tweak, yeah, yeah,
- 27:33Speaker 4: I want him to play the whole game. So then
- 27:36Speaker 4: you start calling plays and you start throwing the ball
- 27:38Speaker 4: and just see what he does. Then you might have
- 27:41Speaker 4: to make an adjustment. Prior to that, I would stick
- 27:44Speaker 4: with what we were trying to do. If if the
- 27:47Speaker 4: doctors say he's okay, you know, he's got this little tweak,
- 27:50Speaker 4: but he's okay.
- 27:52Speaker 2: Coach, what's the biggest thing you're gonna tell the guys
- 27:54Speaker 2: they either need to do or avoid doing, whether it's
- 27:58Speaker 2: a meeting today or getting ready for the game tomorrow.
- 28:01Speaker 4: Yeah, I would. I would just remind them a buck
- 28:03Speaker 4: how important it is, how far they've come, you know,
- 28:06Speaker 4: and and what business we still have to take care of,
- 28:10Speaker 4: and you know, because they've heard it all, they've heard
- 28:14Speaker 4: it all. In anything I would say probably would be
- 28:18Speaker 4: a repeat, in which case they listened for a while
- 28:21Speaker 4: and then all of a sudden, hey, let's just play,
- 28:23Speaker 4: let us play, and so but I would remind them
- 28:26Speaker 4: we still have some work to do and you guys
- 28:29Speaker 4: have come this far and done so well, now let's
- 28:32Speaker 4: try and finish it. And so that'd be my message.
- 28:35Speaker 1: How good do you feel about the matchup for the Sarks?
- 28:39Speaker 1: I mean, taking everything into consideration, forty nine ers, injuries,
- 28:42Speaker 1: what you watched two weeks ago when these two teams
- 28:44Speaker 1: faced off against one another, the Seahawks with home field
- 28:47Speaker 1: advantage by rest all that sort of thing. I mean,
- 28:51Speaker 1: how confident you're coaching this team. You're not going to
- 28:54Speaker 1: tell the media, but how confident are you about this
- 28:58Speaker 1: matchup on Saturday?
- 29:00Speaker 4: Well? I think well, first of all, as a fan,
- 29:03Speaker 4: I would say I'm very confident. As the coach, I
- 29:06Speaker 4: would say I never wanted to get too over a
- 29:08Speaker 4: confident because crazy stuff happens in games. We've seen it
- 29:11Speaker 4: before and I've been in games like that, you know,
- 29:14Speaker 4: so you know they still have to go to work
- 29:17Speaker 4: and they have to approach it as though you know
- 29:21Speaker 4: there is not a big advantage. But I think, down
- 29:24Speaker 4: deep as a fan, now there is a big advantage.
- 29:28Speaker 4: I think playing at home the injuriest thing that you
- 29:30Speaker 4: talked about, Chuck. I mean, there are a lot of
- 29:32Speaker 4: reasons you can check the boxes that why the Seahawks
- 29:35Speaker 4: should win this one. And but as a coach, no,
- 29:38Speaker 4: you don't go there. You just say, hey, listen, we
- 29:41Speaker 4: got to go out and do.
- 29:42Speaker 1: It, all right, So what's the plan then tomorrow? Or
- 29:45Speaker 1: how are you taking this one in? Are you going
- 29:47Speaker 1: to go back out the sun Katie so you can
- 29:48Speaker 1: watch it on that big theater.
- 29:50Speaker 4: No, you know what, that's a good question. I was
- 29:52Speaker 4: talking about it this morning. As a matter of fact,
- 29:54Speaker 4: I would think, I'm going to write my kids over
- 29:57Speaker 4: and I'm going to barbecue at Hamburg's dogs. Make it
- 30:00Speaker 4: kind of like a game type of situation. But I
- 30:05Speaker 4: got to hustle because I only have that halftime. I
- 30:08Speaker 4: gotta cook everything at halftime. Yeah, so I can, so
- 30:12Speaker 4: I can still come in and talk about the game
- 30:13Speaker 4: with you guys on Monday.
- 30:14Speaker 1: You know what you should do. You should just make
- 30:17Speaker 1: your family member's tailgate outside your house. Just have them tailgate,
- 30:22Speaker 1: get into the football, you know, don't even let them
- 30:25Speaker 1: in the house. They just got to stay out there.
- 30:27Speaker 1: And then you bring the burgers out and put a
- 30:29Speaker 1: tailgate party outside your house with your You know.
- 30:32Speaker 4: No, that's not a bad the only what what if
- 30:35Speaker 4: is bad weather doesn't matter.
- 30:37Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. Jackets, yeah, exactly. You and Kathy are
- 30:40Speaker 1: dry and warm.
- 30:42Speaker 4: Do we own what do we own? Jacket?
- 30:44Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 30:45Speaker 4: Yeah, a loan? You know what, that's a good point.
- 30:48Speaker 4: I got a lot of jackets.
- 30:49Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 30:50Speaker 1: Do they want to get in the spirit of this
- 30:51Speaker 1: thing or not? They don't get to come inside the house.
- 30:53Speaker 1: They got to deal with the elements. That's what I do. Okay,
- 30:57Speaker 1: all right, coach, Well, thank you, we appreciate it. We'll
- 31:00Speaker 1: talk to you on Monday, right, kech have a good one,
- 31:02Speaker 1: all right. Mike Homberan joining us right here on chucking
- 31:05Speaker 1: back in the morning again, brought to you by Toyota
- 31:07Speaker 1: of Kirkland. Are in our foundation specialists and slab Jack
- 31:11Speaker 1: raise sunken concrete at one eight six six slab Sla
- 31:15Speaker 1: b Jack. By the way, do you see Bobaschett three years,
- 31:19Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty six million?
- 31:21Speaker 2: Where do you go?
- 31:22Speaker 1: New York Mets? See what happens? So the Dodgers take
- 31:24Speaker 1: it completely out, and then the only other team they're
- 31:27Speaker 1: going to fortybody says well, we gotta let him go too.
- 31:29Speaker 1: So we got to over pay Bobachett. And now he's
- 31:31Speaker 1: up to forty thirty million dollars players up to forty
- 31:34Speaker 1: two million dollars a year because the Mets have to
- 31:36Speaker 1: have somebody now because Kyle Tucker went for even more
- 31:40Speaker 1: than they were overspending in their offers. So this is
- 31:43Speaker 1: this process just out of whack. It's all the Dodgers' fault.
- 31:47Speaker 1: Stupid Dodgers. With Dodgers having all that money, I don't
- 31:51Speaker 1: even think they have the money. I mean, do you
- 31:54Speaker 1: see Stephen Cohen kicking the He doesn't give no deferred
- 31:57Speaker 1: payment to Bobashet payments.
- 32:01Speaker 2: He doesn't do fear if you do it. I mean,
- 32:03Speaker 2: I think whether or not it's right or.
- 32:05Speaker 1: Wrong, I think Stephen Cohen knows money. There's something about
- 32:09Speaker 1: it that Steven Cohen's like, I'm not doing that, and
- 32:12Speaker 1: yet the Dodgers are pretty much only do it. They
- 32:14Speaker 1: didn't do it with Tucker, but they pretty much only
- 32:17Speaker 1: doing it. So there's even something about it that Stephen Cohen's.
- 32:20Speaker 2: Like, no, I would never do that.
- 32:22Speaker 1: I'm not doing that. And that's that's the best money
- 32:26Speaker 1: guy in the entire league. So I don't know. It's
- 32:28Speaker 1: a mystery to me. I'll tell you that much. All Right,
