1:27
Speaker 8: over in fifty yards receiving a touchdown catch also through
1:30
Speaker 8: a touchdown pass. Of all the guys on this team,
1:34
Speaker 8: he's the one the NFL scouts are drooling over. He's
1:38
Speaker 8: the one that's going to be in the first round
1:40
Speaker 8: of the NFL Draft this year. Even though he doesn't
1:43
Speaker 8: get as much attention as our quarterback or Jonah Coleman
1:46
Speaker 8: at running back, but he put it on full display
1:49
Speaker 8: on Saturday at the expense of Illinois. Man, when you
1:53
Speaker 8: beat a powerhouse like that one that just year after year,
1:56
Speaker 8: one hundred years, just a steady teig of mediocrity, Okay, yeah,
2:02
Speaker 8: I mean, I wonder where you're going to land, intimidating,
2:06
Speaker 8: especially when it's raining and you never know because they
2:09
Speaker 8: you know, whatever element Illinois just seems to fight through it,
2:13
Speaker 8: fight through it. And come on the other side being okay.
2:16
Speaker 2: Yeah, just average.
2:17
Speaker 9: Yeah yeah, they just just bring on all comers, guys,
2:23
Speaker 9: doesn't matter whatever, whatever, However much the deck is stacked
2:27
Speaker 9: against them, they will come out very mediocre.
2:30
Speaker 1: Yeah exactly. I grew up with it. I know all
2:33
Speaker 1: about it.
2:34
Speaker 6: It's Chuck, it's buckets Ashley here.
2:36
Speaker 8: On this Monday morning, the Dogs went over Illinois forty
2:39
Speaker 8: two to twenty five.
2:40
Speaker 6: On Saturday, they moved to six and two on the season.
2:44
Speaker 8: They are currently ranked twenty eighth in the Associated Press,
2:47
Speaker 8: which officially makes them unranked at this stage, but the
2:52
Speaker 8: pathway a bit clear. Should have three winnable games before Oregon.
2:57
Speaker 8: And so yes, you are a this morning to think
3:01
Speaker 8: about a path toward the college football playoff. And that's
3:05
Speaker 8: where we'll start with our Frostbrewed Corps Frostbrewed Corps.
3:09
Speaker 1: Light Choose Chill headlines.
3:11
Speaker 8: It is a Choose Chill Monday, counting you down to
3:13
Speaker 8: Monday Night football Tonight at five fifteen pm. It will
3:17
Speaker 8: be the Washington Commanders taking on the Kansas City Chiefs
3:20
Speaker 8: to wrap up a week that did not feature the Seahawks,
3:24
Speaker 8: who were on by Jets won their first game of
3:27
Speaker 8: the year. Baltimore won their first game in five weeks,
3:31
Speaker 8: and the Texans defeated the San Francisco forty nine Ers
3:34
Speaker 8: to drop the forty nine ers to third place in
3:37
Speaker 8: the NFC West. Tonight, the Sounders will start their postseason.
3:41
Speaker 8: They're in Minnesota to take on Minnesota United. They will
3:45
Speaker 8: start that match at six o'clock. Jackson Felts will join
3:48
Speaker 8: us to preview at eight thirty. Cracking back to back
3:52
Speaker 8: nice wins here early in the season, including a Saturday
3:55
Speaker 8: win over Edmonton at home. They'll be back in action
3:58
Speaker 8: at Climate Pledge tomorrow at seven point thirty, and Game
4:01
Speaker 8: three of the World Series is going to be tonight.

Speaker 1: for the Dodgers.
4:14
Speaker 9: BOO.
4:16
Speaker 8: World Series coverage right here on KJR, brought to you
4:19
Speaker 8: by Seattle's closest no Qualmie Casino and Hotel. Ryan Healy
4:24
Speaker 8: is actually going to join us this morning at nine
4:26
Speaker 8: o'clock to talk some baseball, But right now we talked
4:29
Speaker 8: Seahawks football with our Seahawks insider Greg Though.
4:32
Speaker 1: All right, what did you do this weekend. What did
4:34
Speaker 1: you do that was adventurous?
4:36
Speaker 7: Hung out? We just relaxed and hung out. I was
4:38
Speaker 7: telling Ashley, it was kind of refreshing. Yeah, been home
4:42
Speaker 7: for a week in the long time.
4:44
Speaker 1: Yeah.
4:45
Speaker 8: Yeah, rainy weekend, no, yeah, there really wasn't much of
4:47
Speaker 8: an opportunity to go outside.
4:49
Speaker 1: You just had to watch the leaves get wet.
4:52
Speaker 7: Yeah, we were going to go do some mountain biking adventure,
4:55
Speaker 7: and the weather so we'll just stay home and got nice.
4:59
Speaker 8: Yeah, you needed reset. I mean, you've been working hard.
5:01
Speaker 8: You've been covering two sports for goodness sake here as
5:05
Speaker 8: of late. Well, the Seahawks don't play this week, but
5:09
Speaker 8: they got a little bit of help from the Houston Texans.
5:13
Speaker 8: I know it's very dangerous to kind of compare games,
5:16
Speaker 8: but you know, the Seahawks most recently had a pretty
5:20
Speaker 8: easy time with Houston. Meanwhile, Houston sort of blew the
5:24
Speaker 8: doors off of San Francisco. So in the big picture,
5:27
Speaker 8: as this team's trying to win the division, how much
5:31
Speaker 8: how much respect do we give the Texans knocking off
5:34
Speaker 8: the forty nine ers yesterday?
5:36
Speaker 7: Well, first of all, those are now the first place Seahawks,
5:39
Speaker 7: don't you know? Yeah, I've heard two of the forty
5:42
Speaker 7: nine ers lost yesterday. Look, the last two times the
5:45
Speaker 7: forty nine ers haven't made the playoffs in the decade,
5:48
Speaker 7: it's because they were just decimated by injuries in those seasons,
5:51
Speaker 7: and they're racked by injuries again. Rock Perdy's not in.
5:55
Speaker 7: Fred Warner has been heard. Nick Bosta didn't play yesterday.
5:59
Speaker 7: Talking to best players on the team. Some of the
6:01
Speaker 7: best players in the league. Christian McCaffery is back from injury,
6:04
Speaker 7: as is George Kittle.
6:06
Speaker 2: They had a touchdown yesterday.
6:07
Speaker 7: You know, George Kittle last week didn't have a catch
6:10
Speaker 7: for the first time in his career with Mac Jones
6:12
Speaker 7: as his quarterback, and the Mac Jones magic seems to
6:16
Speaker 7: have run out.
6:16
Speaker 2: At least it did in Houston.
6:18
Speaker 7: The most glaring thing to me was Houston. I watched
6:20
Speaker 7: some of that game. Houston ran up four hundred and
6:23
Speaker 7: seventy I think it was four seventy four to seventy
6:26
Speaker 7: two something like that total yards on San Francisco's defense.
6:30
Speaker 7: And when I saw Houston's offense and c. J. Stott,
6:34
Speaker 7: they didn't look like a juggernut at all. Against Seattle.
6:37
Speaker 7: They were sputtering they couldn't run the ball, they couldn't
6:40
Speaker 7: convert on third downs. The Seahawks really neutralized them compared
6:44
Speaker 7: to what San Francisco did. But again, the forty nine
6:46
Speaker 7: Ers are a shell of their full team and teams
6:51
Speaker 7: are taking advantage of them because of it. So the
6:53
Speaker 7: Seahawks are in first place by virtue of a better
6:56
Speaker 7: division record.
6:56
Speaker 2: So far, it's early one and one in the division
6:58
Speaker 2: and Rams are zero one.
7:00
Speaker 7: Both of them have lost the forty nine Ers so far,
7:03
Speaker 7: and of course the Seahawks haven't played the Rams yet.
7:06
Speaker 7: Later this month, a couple weeks, the Seahawks will be
7:08
Speaker 7: down in Inglewood. It's still really early and there's still
7:11
Speaker 7: time for Brock Purdy and Warner and those that get
7:14
Speaker 7: healthy again. But the Seahawks need to take advantage of this.
7:18
Speaker 7: That's the way seasons go and division titles.
7:21
Speaker 2: You can win them.
7:22
Speaker 7: You can't win them in October November, but you could
7:25
Speaker 7: sure lose them or lose a chance to win them.
7:27
Speaker 7: So the Seahawks need to keep doing what they have
7:29
Speaker 7: been doing, which is their defense keeping them in most
7:32
Speaker 7: games except Tampa Bay, and then their offense taking advantage
7:36
Speaker 7: in most times of their passing opportunities, and now they're
7:38
Speaker 7: gonna get three defensive starters back.
7:40
Speaker 2: It appears Sunday Night.
7:41
Speaker 7: Ed Washington, Devin Witherspoon, Jullian Love, and Derek Hall all
7:47
Speaker 7: expected to play. All expected to practice this week and
7:49
Speaker 7: play on Sunday night.
7:51
Speaker 9: Gee, I mean, you go into a bye week sitting
7:54
Speaker 9: in good position. I think maybe it's you know, it
7:56
Speaker 9: hasn't been a perfect season, but still been pretty durn good,
7:58
Speaker 9: and like you said, you find yourself in first place
8:01
Speaker 9: after the way in which the other team's played out.
8:04
Speaker 9: And so I mean, I think that this is about
8:06
Speaker 9: the time of the season that I'm, like, might start
8:08
Speaker 9: feeling good about how I was, how I think about
8:12
Speaker 9: a team. So I mean that this defense is legit.
8:14
Speaker 9: You talk about the difference between what you watched in
8:16
Speaker 9: the Houston Texans, what they did to a decimated forty
8:20
Speaker 9: nine ers team versus what we just watched them not
8:22
Speaker 9: do or in being capable of doing against the Seahawks.
8:26
Speaker 9: I think that's legit. I think it has been the
8:28
Speaker 9: entire time. I think anybody that was thinking that is right.
8:30
Speaker 9: And yet when it comes to the offense and the
8:33
Speaker 9: running is what we're watching in the run game, even
8:36
Speaker 9: though there's room for improvement, is that kind of who
8:38
Speaker 9: they are where there's going to be scuffles regardless of
8:41
Speaker 9: how much they can try to improve it, it's probably
8:44
Speaker 9: not going to be maybe as good as I thought
8:46
Speaker 9: it could be at the beginning of the season.
8:48
Speaker 7: Well, they're sure going to try, Bucky.
8:50
Speaker 2: It is who they are right now.
8:51
Speaker 7: It's not who they want to be, it's not who
8:53
Speaker 7: they're designed to be on offense, and so they're going
8:55
Speaker 7: to keep running. They run it more than anybody in
8:58
Speaker 7: the NFL, yet they're gaining the third fewest yards in
9:02
Speaker 7: the NFL, thirtieth yards per carry. So they'll keep running
9:07
Speaker 7: even when the results aren't there. I think Klinkubiak has
9:10
Speaker 7: proven that, and we talked about that even before the
9:12
Speaker 7: season started. At would likely be the case. So they're
9:15
Speaker 7: going to give it such ample opportunities that there's a
9:18
Speaker 7: chance that law of averages says they will run the
9:21
Speaker 7: ball better just because they're going to run it so much.
9:24
Speaker 2: They're not going to stop.
9:26
Speaker 7: They are going to continue to design their offense around
9:28
Speaker 7: running the ball, play action passes off of it. They
9:32
Speaker 7: are convinced their line coaches and their offensive designers are
9:36
Speaker 7: convinced this offensive line needs to have a running game
9:39
Speaker 7: to slow down opposing pass rushers, and I fully believe
9:43
Speaker 7: that is the case. I don't think you can just
9:46
Speaker 7: wing it forty five times with Sam Donald and expect
9:49
Speaker 7: to have the same results that they've had so far.
9:52
Speaker 7: One of the reasons Donald is leading the league in
9:55
Speaker 7: yards per pass attempt is because they're.
9:58
Speaker 2: Running the ball so much.
10:00
Speaker 7: They're facing a lot of stack boxes safeties coming down
10:02
Speaker 7: near the line of scrimmage, and a lot of those
10:04
Speaker 7: Smith and Jigba plays over the top are because there's
10:08
Speaker 7: one fewer guy back in the back defending. It's simple
10:10
Speaker 7: math that when they see a stack box, they're throwing
10:13
Speaker 7: over the top of it. And running into stack boxes
10:18
Speaker 7: in the NFL is usually not a great result, and
10:21
Speaker 7: that's usually what's happened to the Seahawks run game. We'd
10:23
Speaker 7: look at Zach Sharbone the fewish yards per attempt because
10:28
Speaker 7: most of the time he's got four dudes staring at
10:30
Speaker 7: him as soon as he grabs the ball. Doesn't matter
10:33
Speaker 7: who the running back is, you're gonna have a tough
10:34
Speaker 7: time sledding against that. The push on the offensive line
10:38
Speaker 7: has been the most disappointing thing we saw in the
10:41
Speaker 7: preseason reminder that preseasons don't always mean a lot.
10:45
Speaker 2: We saw them.
10:46
Speaker 7: Pushing and opening huge holes, and they haven't done that
10:50
Speaker 7: consistently at all. I've said it before, They've really only
10:53
Speaker 7: had one half of one game where they played offensively
10:56
Speaker 7: like they want to, and that's at Pittsburgh, the only
10:59
Speaker 7: one hundred yard rushing day of the season for Kenneth Walker.
11:03
Speaker 2: But they will keep trying.
11:04
Speaker 7: It's their identity, it's their design, it's how they've built
11:07
Speaker 7: the roster, but how they built the offensive line, and
11:09
Speaker 7: they have to do it, and that probably the first
11:12
Speaker 7: seven games are an indication that's probably going to lead
11:15
Speaker 7: to some more very frustrating games if fans watching them
11:18
Speaker 7: just run into a brick wall literally.
11:20
Speaker 6: Greg Bell is with us our Seahawks insider.
11:22
Speaker 8: Of course, you can follow Mat g bel Seattle on
11:25
Speaker 8: x and Thenewstribune dot com for complete Seahawks coverage, and.
11:30
Speaker 1: Look, it's the football, National Football League.
11:33
Speaker 8: Injuries are part of it all, and I'm sure there
11:36
Speaker 8: were some temptations to rush back Devin Witherspoon and Julian
11:40
Speaker 8: Love throughout these first few weeks, But here you sit
11:44
Speaker 8: five and two first place. As we've pointed out, Witherspoon
11:48
Speaker 8: hasn't played since San Francisco. For goodness sake, Witherspoon and
11:53
Speaker 8: Love obviously haven't played together since San Francisco. So to
11:58
Speaker 8: resist that temptation to them back and pee in such
12:02
Speaker 8: good position and coming off a bye what kind of rejuvenation,
12:07
Speaker 8: what kind of a spark could Witherspoon in Love's return
12:11
Speaker 8: provide for Mike McDonald on Sunday night.
12:15
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's a big deal. And the guy who might
12:17
Speaker 7: benefit the most is Nick even Worry because he can
12:20
Speaker 7: now play how Mike McDonald designed him and drafted him
12:23
Speaker 7: to play and expected him to play. It's gonna really
12:27
Speaker 7: be I asked last week. Okay, it looks like Witherspon's
12:30
Speaker 7: gonna play. First of all, just to be clear, witherspin
12:33
Speaker 7: did come back for the Week four at Arizona. He
12:36
Speaker 7: re injured his knee in that game, and so they
12:39
Speaker 7: haven't been a whole since the fifth play of the
12:42
Speaker 7: season when Nick Even Worry went out in Week one.
12:45
Speaker 7: But they were trying to get Witherspoon back. Wasn't like,
12:47
Speaker 7: let's just shelve you through the bye week, right, right?
12:49
Speaker 7: He was consistently getting tested, retested, leaving the team to
12:54
Speaker 7: go get all kinds of tests and work done on
12:56
Speaker 7: that mcl bruise, and it wasn't responding, but they.
13:02
Speaker 2: Did try and they didn't.
13:03
Speaker 7: Just just worked out this way that the bye week
13:05
Speaker 7: is now maximizing his rest for it. But I think
13:08
Speaker 7: Emon Worry is the guy that's going to really benefit
13:11
Speaker 7: and therefore the defense is going to really benefit. Demon
13:13
Speaker 7: Worrey has quickly become maybe the surest tackler on the defense,
13:17
Speaker 7: and he's get a lot of opportunities to do it
13:18
Speaker 7: because of where they're playing and when they play him
13:20
Speaker 7: in that slot alley position and teams throw quickly to
13:23
Speaker 7: get rid of the ball before the pass rush, that
13:26
Speaker 7: guy in the slot corner the inside slot safety position
13:31
Speaker 7: has to tackle in the open field or else you're
13:34
Speaker 7: dead because there's nobody behind you and you're going to
13:36
Speaker 7: get You're gonna lose fifteen to twenty yards before your
13:38
Speaker 7: fellow defensive backs run him down. Well, even Worri has
13:42
Speaker 7: been dropping dudes as soon as they catch passes, and
13:45
Speaker 7: that turns five yard passes into five yard games instead
13:48
Speaker 7: of fifteen yard games. And that's the difference between punting
13:51
Speaker 7: and first downs, which becomes a difference between no points
13:55
Speaker 7: and points. That's how important Nick Emon.
13:57
Speaker 2: Worriy is.
14:00
Speaker 7: Week I said, Okay, now Witherspoon's coming back. Coach Mike McDonald,
14:02
Speaker 7: what does that mean for who your nickel's going to be.
14:05
Speaker 7: Because when Witherspoon has been on the field, of course,
14:07
Speaker 7: he's been the nickel on third downs and they bring
14:09
Speaker 7: an extra cornerback usually onto the field to play three
14:13
Speaker 7: corners in the nickel. And he said, that's an interesting
14:16
Speaker 7: problem to have. Meaning to me, Nick even Worey is
14:20
Speaker 7: going to stay where he's been because of how good
14:23
Speaker 7: he's been. I would expect Witherspoon and Joe Josh Job
14:27
Speaker 7: to be the outside corners, and I would think Nick
14:30
Speaker 7: Rick reek Woollen will be the odd man out in
14:32
Speaker 7: that and that they'll go with three safeties with love
14:35
Speaker 7: back and Nick even Worry as the nickel. I'm expecting
14:39
Speaker 7: that in Washington on Sunday that gives them a better
14:42
Speaker 7: run defender, a stouter, bigger run defender near the line
14:46
Speaker 7: of scrimmage. If Washington wants to counter with runs against nickel,
14:50
Speaker 7: and it gives them their shorest tackler in the open
14:52
Speaker 7: field against receivers Leam and worry, even though he's only
14:56
Speaker 7: played a couple full games because of that injury, and
14:59
Speaker 7: Week one really has been exactly maybe even more than
15:02
Speaker 7: they thought he would be right away.
15:04
Speaker 2: Jay.
15:05
Speaker 9: One of the brighter spots on the season up to
15:07
Speaker 9: this point has been Jackson Smith and Jig. Obviously Sam
15:10
Speaker 9: Darnold getting him the ball too. But do you think
15:13
Speaker 9: there's a chance that they're going to go in the
15:15
Speaker 9: avenue of we got to get others incorporated into this
15:19
Speaker 9: a little bit more, or might as well just double down.
15:21
Speaker 9: He seems really difficult to cover and he catches everything
15:24
Speaker 9: that gets near him. I mean, are they gonna just
15:26
Speaker 9: say we don't need to spread it around necessarily. We
15:30
Speaker 9: got a guy that's leading the world right now. We're
15:32
Speaker 9: just gonna continue that trend here, Buggy.
15:35
Speaker 2: I think Chuck and I talked about this last week.
15:37
Speaker 7: I think what's gonna happen is they're gonna say they
15:40
Speaker 7: need to spread it around. They're gonna make play calls
15:43
Speaker 7: that design more Cooper Cup, more of a j Barner,
15:47
Speaker 7: more of Tory Horton, who has been opened down the field.
15:50
Speaker 7: Ash has pointed out in our round table. They're going
15:53
Speaker 7: to design it that way to want more balance so
15:55
Speaker 7: that teams can't defend one receiver. But I think when
15:58
Speaker 7: push is coming to show of the guy who actually
16:01
Speaker 7: has to throw the ball under pressure and get it
16:03
Speaker 7: out before the rush comes, is thrown at number eleven
16:07
Speaker 7: because he trusts that he's going to get open under
16:09
Speaker 7: any and all coverage situation. So far he has so
16:12
Speaker 7: they can design and say all they want. But when
16:14
Speaker 7: Donald's got a three hundred pound guy in his face,
16:17
Speaker 7: he's thrown a number eleven crossing the middle of the
16:19
Speaker 7: end zone for a touchdown and a dunk over the goalpost.
16:23
Speaker 7: It doesn't matter what the play design is. It doesn't
16:25
Speaker 7: matter what they've said. On Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, when the
16:28
Speaker 7: quarterback is about to get hit, he's thrown at to
16:30
Speaker 7: Smith and Jigba.
16:31
Speaker 2: So so far, that's what's happened.
16:34
Speaker 7: Clint Kobiak has not had game plans that fourteen targets
16:37
Speaker 7: go to Smith and Jigua and three to Cooper Cup.
16:40
Speaker 7: He's called many more plays with Cup as the primary receiver,
16:44
Speaker 7: and Donald has thrown backside third redthrows to Smith and Jigba.
16:49
Speaker 7: He's thrown on the fourth and one play against Houston.
16:52
Speaker 7: Instead of the two yard out to the tight end
16:54
Speaker 7: at every quarterback in the league throws, he throws an
16:56
Speaker 7: eighteen yard out to Smith and Jigpa the lower percentage place.
17:00
Speaker 7: In Donald's mind, that's the better option right now. So
17:04
Speaker 7: I think until some teams designed a coverage that completely
17:10
Speaker 7: tilts the field of Smithenjigba and leaves dudes just running
17:13
Speaker 7: Scott free down the middle like Cup and Horton, I think.
17:17
Speaker 2: It's going to continue.
17:18
Speaker 7: There's no reason for Donald not to throw it to
17:20
Speaker 7: number eleven right now, the way he's beating every coverage.
17:24
Speaker 8: Well, I woke up this morning feeling good about one thing.
17:27
Speaker 8: If Luke Wilson and Chris Carson and Red Bryant want
17:30
Speaker 8: to make a return to the National Football League, we
17:33
Speaker 8: know they're going to the Raiders. So how about Lockett
17:37
Speaker 8: and Pete and Gino reuniting over the weekend.
17:42
Speaker 7: You know, you gotta give Pete Carroll credit for his
17:45
Speaker 7: loyal don't you. I mean when he sends guys out
17:49
Speaker 7: the door, and he.
17:49
Speaker 2: Didn't send Locket out the door. Of course he wasn't
17:51
Speaker 2: the coach.
17:51
Speaker 7: Then, But when guys depart Seattle or in this case
17:55
Speaker 7: he departed Seattle. He maintains the relationships. He sees him
18:00
Speaker 7: at off season things, he sees them at combines, and
18:04
Speaker 7: he goes up and hugs him and loves them and
18:07
Speaker 7: slaps on the back and laughs about the times they had.
18:10
Speaker 7: There are no bridges burned and I'm putting with Russell Wilson, nobody.
18:15
Speaker 7: That's how who Pete Carroll is.
18:17
Speaker 2: And it pays oftentimes like this. I'm glad Tyler Hawkin
18:21
Speaker 2: has a job.
18:22
Speaker 7: I'm glad someone had sign him, and I'm glad it's
18:24
Speaker 7: a guy that he really likes in the doors and
18:26
Speaker 7: then brought him.
18:27
Speaker 2: Up in the NFL and drafted him. Uh good for
18:30
Speaker 2: Tyler Hawckett. But yeah, it does speak to Pete Carroll.
18:34
Speaker 2: Not only is he loyal, he puts a.
18:36
Speaker 7: Lot of work into relationships that we'll see if it
18:38
Speaker 7: actually pays off, but it certainly keeps guys close and
18:42
Speaker 7: wanting to play with Pete Carroll. And we know Gino
18:45
Speaker 7: Smith loves him.
18:46
Speaker 8: Maybe Earl and Pete had a little work to do,
18:48
Speaker 8: I don't know, but everybody else seems to be on board,
18:51
Speaker 8: that's for sure.
18:52
Speaker 1: Greg.
18:52
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that's a unique situation. Harol Thomas departure is
18:56
Speaker 2: a unique situation.
18:57
Speaker 8: But yeah, event well, we'll talk to you tomorrow, all right.
19:04
Speaker 1: Greg Bell, our Seahawks insider.
19:06
Speaker 8: His segment here on Chuck and Buck is brought to
19:09
Speaker 8: you by, of course, the Delacado Family Wines. Yes, they
19:14
Speaker 8: are the new sponsor of the Greg Bell segment. Delacato
19:18
Speaker 8: Family Wines offer a portfolio of premium wines from a
19:21

19:42
Speaker 2: All right.
19:42
Speaker 8: Factor fiction comes up at seven thirty five. Yes, there
19:45
Speaker 8: are some hot teams in the professional football world, but
19:49
Speaker 8: none hotter than this team. Sports Radio ninety three point
19:53
Speaker 8: three KJRFM. You know what I think, maybe Bucky being
19:56
Speaker 8: out for a couple of days. You know, you just
19:59
Speaker 8: they say that in baseball, if you're going in a slump,
20:01
Speaker 8: you just got to do something weird to like shake
20:04
Speaker 8: things up, and so, uh, Yeah, maybe next time we're
20:08
Speaker 8: in a slump, we'll figure it out quicker and we'll
20:10
Speaker 8: just send Bucky to get his old bum checked out.
20:14
Speaker 6: Yeah, like, hey, we lost to in a row, Bucky,
20:18
Speaker 6: go get.
20:21
Speaker 9: I mean, I'd like to do a different way to
20:25
Speaker 9: get out of a slump. I mean, I'll just take
20:27
Speaker 9: a couple of days off if that's needed.
20:29
Speaker 6: I feel like they should.
20:31
Speaker 8: Maybe we should alternate who gets to take the day
20:34
Speaker 8: off to bust the slump.
20:35
Speaker 9: That might be it's just taking days off, all stick
20:38
Speaker 9: with it. If it's having to do what I had
20:40
Speaker 9: to do.
20:41
Speaker 6: If you take the day off, what you had the street.
20:44
Speaker 1: Come on, it worked, come on, it worked perfectly.
20:46
Speaker 9: Okay, Well then if you guys want to have your
20:48
Speaker 9: turn at it, then well.
20:49
Speaker 6: I mean I've done it once. It wasn't terrible.
20:52
Speaker 8: Uh well, we went five and oh this week we
20:55
Speaker 8: were like kind of dominating the whole time, and then
20:57
Speaker 8: all of a sudden we had two crappy weeks. But
21:01
Speaker 8: everybody's kind of picking well I mean except Ian.
21:04
Speaker 1: They were hopeless.
21:06
Speaker 8: But you know MJ and Kid despite kids like oh
21:10
Speaker 8: and nine start, they've battled back to five hundred.
21:14
Speaker 1: Yeah, he could both write last week.
21:15
Speaker 8: Yeah, good for them, kid carrying him carrying that show
21:19
Speaker 8: last week?
21:19
Speaker 1: Where did that come from?
21:21
Speaker 8: Softy and Dick have been on fire as of late,
21:24
Speaker 8: particularly Dick, he's pretty good at this. They went three
21:27
Speaker 8: and two, so they're twenty and sixteen right now. But
21:30
Speaker 8: we went five and oh this week in Factor Fiction, so.
21:33
Speaker 1: We are back on track. Yeah, we're back, baby.
21:36
Speaker 6: Looks like we never left.
21:38
Speaker 8: Came out of first place right now. When you go
21:40
Speaker 8: five and oh, boy, that can turn things on a dime.
21:43
Speaker 8: That's helpful. Yeah, it is helpful. Twenty one and eighteen
21:47
Speaker 8: now the record for the morning show.
21:49
Speaker 1: We're back.
21:50
Speaker 9: Wow, I didn't know it'd slipped below five hundred.
21:52
Speaker 1: Yeah we did.
21:53
Speaker 6: It was dark time.
21:54
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, really really sad. I'd like to not think
21:57
Speaker 1: about it. Yeah, a lot of people probably very upset out.
22:01
Speaker 2: It hurt.
22:02
Speaker 1: It's the reason why it rains so much.
22:04
Speaker 9: Well, I know that we have had Yeah, we've had
22:07
Speaker 9: a lot of We've had a lot of times where
22:09
Speaker 9: for whatever reason, the bounce backs don't work right.
22:13
Speaker 1: That happens on our show.
22:14
Speaker 9: It's not our fault, but I do notice this when
22:18
Speaker 9: I see that happen, and I'll tell you or you'll
22:21
Speaker 9: tell me or whoever tells somebody.
22:23
Speaker 1: It's a lot of facts. Oh, there's a lot of facts.
22:26
Speaker 1: They trust it, yes, and.
22:27
Speaker 9: So when we go into a little slump, there's I
22:31
Speaker 9: mean probably millions of people that are disappointed.
22:34
Speaker 8: Yes, well, we're sorry, We've learned our lesson. We're back
22:37
Speaker 8: on track, so we got to keep it that way.
22:40
Speaker 8: Let's play some factor fiction.
22:42
Speaker 6: Where's that to go?
22:43
Speaker 3: Glad you're with us, it's your shot at our weekly
22:45
Speaker 3: thousand bucks and the ten thousand dollars grand prize. It's
22:50
Speaker 3: factor fiction, probably presented by Lucky Ego Casino and Hotel.
22:55
Speaker 1: We're every day Feels Lucky.
22:57
Speaker 3: Fact Door fiction is on Sports Ready ninety three point
23:00
Speaker 3: three kJ R FM.
23:03
Speaker 8: All right, Bucky didn't really cool off like Ashley and
23:07
Speaker 8: I had there for those couple of weeks. As a
23:08
Speaker 8: matter of fact, he got our only win last week,
23:10
Speaker 8: so Bucky kind of kept our nose above water.
23:14
Speaker 1: And then uh oh did Ashley and I start to swim? Yeah?
23:18
Speaker 8: Yeah, so Bucky keep it rolling. We it's your turn.
23:22
Speaker 8: You're up for a second Monday in a row.
23:24
Speaker 9: Yeah, well this would be great. I'll do Monday and
23:26
Speaker 9: then you guys do the next couple days. I'll take
23:28
Speaker 9: a couple of days off. You guys kick ass in
23:30
Speaker 9: Thursday Friday. No, you don't mess with the streak. So anyways,
23:35
Speaker 9: I got I got one here that I feel pretty
23:37
Speaker 9: good about after watching the night game last night. Not
23:41
Speaker 9: super high on the Steelers. I think they can beat that.
23:44
Speaker 9: They're not going to be bad this year. They're gonna
23:46
Speaker 9: beat the teams they are supposed to, but they're not
23:48
Speaker 9: going to beat a bunch of the teams that they should.
23:50
Speaker 9: And they're playing the Colts. The Colts have to go
23:52
Speaker 9: to Pittsburgh, but they're only giving them two and a
23:55
Speaker 9: half points. I'll go ahead and take the Colts minus
23:57
Speaker 9: two and a half. At the Steelers.
24:00
Speaker 1: Are on fire. There's no doubt about that.
24:02
Speaker 8: So all right, So the pick for Bucky is the
24:05
Speaker 8: Colts minus two and a half on the road to
24:07
Speaker 8: take on the Pittsburgh Steelers. Means the Colts have to
24:10
Speaker 8: win by a field goal or more in this game
24:14
Speaker 8: and order for Bucky to be right, if you believe
24:17
Speaker 8: he is right, if you think he is dead on
24:19
Speaker 8: with this one, or even just mostly right, you go
24:23
Speaker 8: ahead and text fact to four nine four to five
24:25
Speaker 8: to one. If you think he's wrong, text fiction to
24:28
Speaker 8: four nine four or five to one. That's how the
24:31
Speaker 8: game is played, very simple, easier than Monopoly. Just fact
24:35
Speaker 8: to four nine four five one. If you agree with
24:37
Speaker 8: the pick, fiction to four nine four to five one.
24:40
Speaker 8: If you disagree with the pick. If you're right, we
24:42
Speaker 8: enter your name into a drawing for one thousand dollars
24:44
Speaker 8: in cash at the end of the week. Every time
24:47
Speaker 8: you're right playing factor fiction, we enter your name into
24:50
Speaker 8: that drawing, and if you're right enough throughout the course
24:54
Speaker 8: of the football season, you will win ten thousand dollars
24:57
Speaker 8: from Lucky Eagle Casino and Hotel. Where They're going twenty
25:01
Speaker 8: four I tell you every Friday and Saturday. Twenty four
25:05
Speaker 8: hour gaming starts November seventh at Luckyeagle dot com. So again,
25:10
Speaker 8: Bucky has taken the Indianapolis Colts the Red Hot Colts,
25:14
Speaker 8: giving the Pittsburgh Steelers two and a half points, even
25:17
Speaker 8: though they'll be playing in catch up country against Aaron
25:21
Speaker 8: Rodgers and the Steelers. So if you agree with Bucky's pick,
25:27
Speaker 8: go ahead and text fact to four nine four or
25:29
Speaker 8: five to one. If you disagree, text fiction to four
25:31
Speaker 8: nine four five one. Your next opportunity to play Factor
25:34
Speaker 8: Fiction comes to eleven thirty five This Morning with the
25:37
Speaker 8: red Hot Christopher Kid and his partner in crime, Mark James.
25:43
Speaker 8: Eleven thirty five This morning, your next opportunity to play.
25:46
Speaker 8: We'll play again tomorrow at seven thirty five. But come
25:49
Speaker 8: on ride the train, Come ride it, Come on ride
25:54
Speaker 8: the train.
25:55
Speaker 1: A five and oh week from your morning show. We're
25:58
Speaker 1: back on track, all right.
26:00
Speaker 6: Up next, we've got the ABC's of the MS.
26:03
Speaker 1: That's right.
26:04
Speaker 8: We're not going to finish the abcs of the MS
26:06
Speaker 8: until we finished the Alphabet. Sports Radio ninety three point
26:09
Speaker 8: three KJRFM ABC's of the MS. The Alphabet our guide
26:14
Speaker 8: through a number of different topics, and today we are
26:17
Speaker 8: to the letters to the letter you U is for underpaid. Suddenly,
26:22
Speaker 8: Cal Raleigh, after getting his massive contract extension, looks grossly
26:27
Speaker 8: underpaid at this point an average of seventeen and a
26:30
Speaker 8: half million dollars over the course of his contract. That's
26:34
Speaker 8: the average salary. The big money really doesn't even kick
26:37
Speaker 8: in for a couple of years. Meanwhile, they're going to
26:39
Speaker 8: be given Logan Gilbert a contract extension this offseason that's
26:43
Speaker 8: probably going to make him paid more than his buddy
26:46
Speaker 8: Cal Raley. Even though Cal's coming off a historic season.
26:49
Speaker 8: Hell Randy a Rose Arena and arbitration this year is
26:52
Speaker 8: probably going to make a higher salary than Cal's average
26:56
Speaker 8: salary over the course of his contract. What do you
26:59
Speaker 8: think I mean? Usually, when a guy signs a deal,
27:03
Speaker 8: he signed a deal, and it doesn't matter if the
27:05
Speaker 8: team came out on top. Great, if the player came
27:08
Speaker 8: out on top, dems the breaks. There was one exception.
27:12
Speaker 8: Salvador Perez early in his career, signed an early contract
27:15
Speaker 8: extension with Kansas City and the Royals got about halfway
27:19
Speaker 8: through it and they're like, this just isn't even fair
27:21
Speaker 8: for what this guy's contributing to this team right now,
27:25
Speaker 8: and so they ripped it up, and now Salvador and
27:29
Speaker 8: the Royals have one of the great relationships in all
27:31
Speaker 8: of professional sports. What do you think should the Mariners
27:35
Speaker 8: do a solid and just say, you know what, cow,
27:37
Speaker 8: We're gonna give you.
27:38
Speaker 1: Ten extra million over this contract, rip it up and
27:41
Speaker 1: give him something. Don't even negotiate it.
27:43
Speaker 8: You're just gonna give him a little bit extra this
27:46
Speaker 8: offseason because suddenly he seems that much more.
27:50
Speaker 1: Valuable than he was at the time of his signature.
27:54
Speaker 9: I wouldn't be surprised if at some point over the
27:57
Speaker 9: next five years, maybe six years, of making seventeen Yeah,
28:03
Speaker 9: I don't think he's going to care. To be honest,
28:07
Speaker 9: I really don't think he's going. I don't think he
28:09
Speaker 9: looks at where he's at in the on the on
28:13
Speaker 9: the rankings of who makes the most on this team.
28:17
Speaker 1: Logan makes more than well, I think that they'll just.
28:19
Speaker 9: Be like, well, fine, now you pick up the tab, right,
28:22
Speaker 9: You're making five million more year than I am. So
28:25
Speaker 9: you pick up the tab every time eyes that's it.
28:28
Speaker 9: And I think that, honestly, it would probably that's what
28:31
Speaker 9: it would be. I'd be willing to bet you that
28:33
Speaker 9: this year when they went out to dinner, Cayle get it, dude,
28:37
Speaker 9: I got the letter. Yeah, you're getting all of them.
28:40
Speaker 9: He makes seventeen million this year, I'm making seven You're
28:43
Speaker 9: getting it. And then it's like, okay, okay, Walter, when
28:48
Speaker 9: you make more than me, you're getting all of them,
28:50
Speaker 9: and I for what it's worth, that is kind of
28:52
Speaker 9: the way that it typically goes. And and I think
28:55
Speaker 9: that I think I don't think cal will care.
28:57
Speaker 1: That's said.
28:58
Speaker 9: I mean, he ends up continuing down the path that
29:01
Speaker 9: he's on right now. I wouldn't be surprised if they
29:05
Speaker 9: with two three years left on the deal kind of
29:08
Speaker 9: say hey, we want you to be here until you're forty.
29:12
Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
29:12
Speaker 9: You're gonna end up DH in your last five years maybe,
29:15
Speaker 9: but let's just go ahead and sign this bad boy
29:17
Speaker 9: and basically give him a raise or an extension type
29:20
Speaker 9: of a.
29:20
Speaker 1: Thing, an extension extension.
29:22
Speaker 8: See, that's what I wouldn't do. I would rather give
29:25
Speaker 8: it something now. I don't want to pay him when
29:28
Speaker 8: he's not the same guy, especially this organization. I'm not
29:32
Speaker 8: going to pay him more when he's over the hill.
29:36
Speaker 9: I'm just saying, I don't think I'm not going to
29:40
Speaker 9: cal Rawley is a guy that I have a feeling's
29:42
Speaker 9: going to be able to leave Seattle whenever he damn
29:44
Speaker 9: will feels like it. And I think he's going to
29:46
Speaker 9: be just fine as a guy even when he's thirty four,
29:50
Speaker 9: thirty five, thirty six and he's maybe not as good
29:52
Speaker 9: behind the dish anymore. And you say, dude, just you
29:56
Speaker 9: play first for a couple of years, you just DH
29:59
Speaker 9: and then yes, you're gonna go straight from probably being
30:02
Speaker 9: our catcher to being our manager. I think he's gonna
30:04
Speaker 9: be able to drop bombs until he's thirty seven thirty
30:07
Speaker 9: eight years old, So I'm not worried about it. I
30:09
Speaker 9: would I would end up seeing them. I could see
30:11
Speaker 9: them signing him through twenty thirty five at some point
30:14
Speaker 9: in time.
30:15
Speaker 8: All Right vs Four VIP. Julio Rodriguez got the VIP treatment.
30:21
Speaker 8: First time we'd seen him since the season came to
30:23
Speaker 8: a close. He shows up at a Cracking game. He
30:26
Speaker 8: really does immerse himself in the other sports. He goes
30:29
Speaker 8: to U dub games, he goes to cracking games, and
30:33
Speaker 8: I'm sure he goes to Seahawks games as well. But
30:36
Speaker 8: he got a bit of a standing ovation during the
30:39
Speaker 8: cracking game, so and he seemed a little bit touched
30:44
Speaker 8: by it. He seemed a little caught off guard by it.
30:47
Speaker 8: But man, these are our Cal and Julio are locked
30:51
Speaker 8: up for the next decade. Basically, this is the foundation,
30:55
Speaker 8: and obviously most people are just fine with that.
30:59
Speaker 9: Yeah, I don't know why you wouldn't be. I guess
31:02
Speaker 9: to each their own. I suppose you can have whatever opinion.
31:06
Speaker 9: I can't wait to see what this dude ends up
31:09
Speaker 9: being because while I think some of his criticism is ridiculous,
31:14
Speaker 9: you know, calling him you know, you know, Jay Fraud,
31:17
Speaker 9: that's silly. He's he's on track to like a Hall
31:20
Speaker 9: of Fame career at this point, and yet he still
31:22
Speaker 9: has not figured out how to hit coming out of
31:25
Speaker 9: spring training for a couple months. And so I'm just
31:28
