2:38

2:40
Speaker 1: are you going to give.
2:41
Speaker 3: Us, Ricky Anderson? It's a home run, walker a strakeout.
2:46
Speaker 1: If you walk, just know you've got to steal second
2:48
Speaker 1: and third in order for you to you know, justify
2:51
Speaker 1: this thing. Well, it's good to have you with us.
2:54
Speaker 1: I'm sure that you're getting ready to board the plane.
2:56
Speaker 1: So let's get in as much conversation as we can
2:59
Speaker 1: about the Seahawks twenty seven to ten winners over the
3:02
Speaker 1: Carolina Panthers yesterday to move to thirteen and three on
3:06
Speaker 1: the season. Offense at times looked ugly, Greg, but the
3:11
Speaker 1: defense was just phenomenal. I mean, you just don't see
3:15
Speaker 1: NFL teams hold opponents to one hundred and thirty nine
3:19
Speaker 1: total yards of offense. And so where does it start
3:23
Speaker 1: with you? Is it concern about the offense or just
3:26
Speaker 1: how impressed you are with what Mike McDonald did to
3:29
Speaker 1: the Panthers yesterday defensively?
3:32
Speaker 3: Well, it's the defense, Chuck. This is a super Bowl
3:35
Speaker 3: caliber defense. The concern, of course, is whether Sam Donald
3:38
Speaker 3: continuing to give the ball away will subvert the Super
3:41
Speaker 3: Bowl caliber defense. But we saw with the Rams in
3:45
Speaker 3: the ten days before when they absolutely had to be
3:48
Speaker 3: on the defense. Was three consecutive three and out stops
3:51
Speaker 3: to get the Seahawks back in that game and rallying
3:54
Speaker 3: at sixteen points down, Donald able to rally them. And
3:57
Speaker 3: then yesterday the game began as I thought it was.
4:00
Speaker 3: I had a feeling the three day layoffs last week,
4:03
Speaker 3: rare Thursday off for Christmas, the East Coast trip at ten,
4:06
Speaker 3: and that it was going to be a slog for
4:08
Speaker 3: them to start out with what it was three three
4:10
Speaker 3: and a half. I then the defense just takes over.
4:13
Speaker 3: DeMarcus Lawrence may be the best player on the team
4:15
Speaker 3: right now, and he took the game over, ripping the
4:19
Speaker 3: ball from Hubbard and covering the fumble that set up
4:22
Speaker 3: the first touchdown that really got the Seahawks bowing. And
4:25
Speaker 3: then Julian Love on the first third down after that,
4:28
Speaker 3: just baiting Bryce Young into an interception up the field.
4:31
Speaker 3: They thought Ted McMillan was wide open and he was
4:33
Speaker 3: anything but Beca's Love knew where the ball was going
4:35
Speaker 3: to go. Donald to Barnard. They convert that into a
4:39
Speaker 3: second touchdown, a fourth down stop because Mafaam Lawrence got
4:44
Speaker 3: the sacks. Fourth down stop turns into the third touchdown.
4:48
Speaker 3: The three touchdowns were directly because of the Seahawks defense.
4:52
Speaker 3: They can win a Super Bowl with the way their
4:54
Speaker 3: defense is playing, yes, including Sunday night, so Saturday night
4:57
Speaker 3: at San Francisco. But I still have big concerns. And
5:01
Speaker 3: if I'm a Seahawks fan, I gotta think, can they
5:03
Speaker 3: really win and get to the Super Bowl with a
5:05
Speaker 3: quarterback who leads the NFL with twenty turnovers and keeps
5:09
Speaker 3: giving the ball away? That's the big concern. The running
5:13
Speaker 3: game is now going Sharbone with his second career one
5:15
Speaker 3: hundred yard game yesterday, one hundred and seventy plus yards
5:18
Speaker 3: on the ground. But the defense is where they're winning.
5:21
Speaker 3: I mean fifty four yard fifty three yards passing for
5:24
Speaker 3: Bryce yard. Guys, that's the most completed twenty four plus
5:28
Speaker 3: pass attempts to the completions of whatever. It was so
5:31
Speaker 3: early in the morning here in these and only fifty
5:34
Speaker 3: three yards is that's the fewest yards for that many
5:36
Speaker 3: pass attempts since nineteen eighty David Woodley remember him? Oh yeah,
5:42
Speaker 3: that's the last time a quarterback threw that often, we
5:45
Speaker 3: got that fewer yards against the defense. They can win
5:48
Speaker 3: a Super Bowl with their defense.
5:50
Speaker 5: Well, there's no doubt their defense ge is something else,
5:53
Speaker 5: and they went out in there and showed it. I mean,
5:56
Speaker 5: it'll be curious. I'll be curious to see how it
5:58
Speaker 5: pans out against the Niners. I think, you know, they
6:00
Speaker 5: just as a team offensively are better than the Panthers.
6:03
Speaker 5: And yet the Panthers, you know, we're right there fighting
6:06
Speaker 5: for a spot in the playoffs as well. So when
6:08
Speaker 5: it comes to Sam Darnold and giving the ball away,
6:11
Speaker 5: I mean, he's had some he's had some bad plays obviously,
6:15
Speaker 5: and yet he's had some bad luck in some too
6:17
Speaker 5: where you know, in that fumble to some degree was
6:20
Speaker 5: a hand going forward or not. You know, it's debatable
6:22
Speaker 5: for sure, but the one down in the end zone,
6:25
Speaker 5: you're basically taking points off the board.
6:27
Speaker 2: Well it didn't work out that.
6:28
Speaker 5: Way because of the turnover and score right bang bang
6:32
Speaker 5: right after that. But I mean that to me was
6:35
Speaker 5: one of the bigger ones of you can't make that mistake.
6:37
Speaker 5: That's part of the reason that I think they shipped
6:39
Speaker 5: Geno Smith out of here, was turning the ball over
6:42
Speaker 5: when you're already down there in the red zone. So
6:44
Speaker 5: how bad was that play in particular?
6:47
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's you're right, there's a field goal in hand
6:49
Speaker 3: there for the lead. You throw that ball either out
6:51
Speaker 3: of the end zone or to where only Smiths and
6:54
Speaker 3: jig But can get it. And the defensive back Mike
6:57
Speaker 3: Jackson had the position on an overthrow, so if anything,
7:00
Speaker 3: if he underthrew that, he had a better chance to
7:03
Speaker 3: have a touchdown. And if you're going to overthrow it,
7:04
Speaker 3: you got to overthrow it out back to the end zone.
7:07
Speaker 3: And that's what he said after the game. I got
7:09
Speaker 3: to either put it where Smith and Jigwick can get
7:10
Speaker 3: it or nobody can get it in and stanc complete.
7:13
Speaker 3: But to play for the field goal, that's particularly going.
7:17
Speaker 3: I would argue that Donald is lucky. He should have
7:20
Speaker 3: had two more interceptions in the first half. He should
7:23
Speaker 3: have had an interception on the first drive of the
7:25
Speaker 3: game when he he had a sharpon a checkdown and
7:28
Speaker 3: he ignored him and he rolled out away from pressure
7:31
Speaker 3: to the left and threw the ball off a helmet.
7:32
Speaker 3: How many times have we seen him throw a ball
7:34
Speaker 3: off a helmet off a defender this year? That's at
7:37
Speaker 3: least three times a Tampa Bay game, with the interception
7:40
Speaker 3: being one of them that ended up losing the game
7:42
Speaker 3: because of it. They lost the opener because Donald gave
7:45
Speaker 3: the ball away in the red zone with ten seconds
7:47
Speaker 3: left in a four point game. The defense has made
7:52
Speaker 3: it so it hasn't bitten them enough, but it has
7:54
Speaker 3: bitten them, including against the forty nine ers. I wrote
8:00
Speaker 3: for the Newstribute this morning or last night. Can they
8:03
Speaker 3: win this way? And I have been asking this for
8:05
Speaker 3: weeks and the answer is yes they can. But can
8:08
Speaker 3: they win this way against the forty nine ers? Can
8:10
Speaker 3: they win this way in the NFC title game? Can
8:13
Speaker 3: they win this game way on the road in the
8:14
Speaker 3: playoffs if they have to go there? If they lose
8:17
Speaker 3: on Saturday night in San Francisco. Those are the questions
8:20
Speaker 3: that McDonald after the game. I asked them about the tournaments.
8:23
Speaker 3: How concerned are you with Donald's turnovers? And he said, yeah,
8:27
Speaker 3: it is about the ball, beat and jeopardy. We have
8:30
Speaker 3: to be better earlier in plays and what he means
8:32
Speaker 3: by that is past protection, hot reads, the quarterback going
8:36
Speaker 3: for the hot reads rather than extending the play, and
8:39
Speaker 3: sometimes just the defense having a better play call than
8:41
Speaker 3: Kalle Kubiak and the offense has. But it's got their attention.
8:47
Speaker 3: It's the one chink in their armor. It's the one
8:49
Speaker 3: Achilles heel to Seattle right now. Otherwise this is a
8:53
Speaker 3: bona FID number one seed home Field super Bowl too.
8:57
Speaker 3: Except for that.
8:58
Speaker 1: One hundred and sixty three yards rushing yesterday, Zach Charbonay
9:02
Speaker 1: maybe his best game as a Seahawk yet. Man, it
9:05
Speaker 1: just felt like a day where Ken Walker just wasn't
9:08
Speaker 1: going where the play was designed. And I know that's
9:11
Speaker 1: been a hit against him for a long period of time.
9:15
Speaker 1: I mean, you're getting ready to play the biggest regular
9:18
Speaker 1: season game of the year with the number one seed
9:22
Speaker 1: on the line, and then the playoffs to follow. Is
9:24
Speaker 1: there a chance Zach Sharbonay is wrestling away the starting
9:28
Speaker 1: job from Ken Walker here at this crucial point in
9:31
Speaker 1: the year.
9:32
Speaker 3: Well, yesterday he did because they just steed up riding
9:35
Speaker 3: hot hand. Once Sharbonay took off for twenty nine yards
9:38
Speaker 3: in the first half, you could see they were going
9:41
Speaker 3: to go mostly to him, and they did in the
9:43
Speaker 3: second half. Again, Walker didn't have anywhere to run a
9:47
Speaker 3: lot of times when he's running away from the design
9:49
Speaker 3: calls because there's two or three defenders waiting on him
9:51
Speaker 3: as soon as he gets the ball. He still had
9:53
Speaker 3: some remarkable one and two yard runs yesterday. McDonald's saying
9:57
Speaker 3: all the right things about how Walker's really playing well,
10:00
Speaker 3: doing everything we ask of him. He's not getting blocking
10:02
Speaker 3: and opportunities at times. It will be interesting to see
10:05
Speaker 3: how the carrier split against San Francisco. But guys, I
10:09
Speaker 3: think last night again showed and the Colts, even with
10:12
Speaker 3: the Grandpa Philip rivers the week before, this forty nine
10:15
Speaker 3: or defense is not the one it even began this year,
10:17
Speaker 3: and not the one of previous years. No Fred Warner,
10:20
Speaker 3: no Nick Bosa, no pass rush. They've got holes in
10:23
Speaker 3: the secondary. War doesn't play for him anymore. Upton Stout
10:27
Speaker 3: got hurt last night. The Seahawks are going to score.
10:31
Speaker 3: They just don't give the ball over and I think
10:33
Speaker 3: they went on Saturday night in Santa Clara. They're gonna
10:37
Speaker 3: score whether it's Walker or Charbona is the lead back.
10:40
Speaker 3: There are holes in that secondary, and I really think
10:43
Speaker 3: this could be a huge passing night for Kubiak and
10:47
Speaker 3: Darnold again if he just doesn't get the ball away.
10:51
Speaker 2: How about the concern.
10:52
Speaker 5: I mean, we don't have we kind of a shorter
10:53
Speaker 5: week with New Year's even New Year's Day coming around,
10:56
Speaker 5: So I'm already gonna ask you one about the Niner.
10:58
Speaker 2: I mean, just no doubt.
11:00
Speaker 5: Oh, they kept him in check, and I mean they
11:02
Speaker 5: kept the defense, kept the Panthers offense. I mean obviously
11:05
Speaker 5: just not doing just about anything. And yet there was
11:08
Speaker 5: a few different times where he was running and getting
11:11
Speaker 5: some nice little chunks of yards. I mean, now you're
11:14
Speaker 5: gonna have Christian McCaffrey and Kyle shann ain't coming out there.
11:18
Speaker 5: So any concern about the offense maybe trying to get
11:20
Speaker 5: into a shootout with his team.
11:23
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, A lot of concerned with Christian McCaffrey. They
11:27
Speaker 3: held him down in the first game and that was
11:29
Speaker 3: with Trent Williams healthy. Williams could barely walk last night
11:32
Speaker 3: for the forty nine Ers, didn't play a hamstring injury.
11:34
Speaker 3: The short week doesn't help him in the forty nine
11:37
Speaker 3: ers offense. Last night after the game, Kyle Shanahan was saying,
11:40
Speaker 3: pretty much whining about having another short week. Well, it's
11:44
Speaker 3: not as short a week as the Seahawks have because
11:46
Speaker 3: they just got home late last night early this morning.
11:49
Speaker 3: You say it's a short week, no New Year's even
11:51
Speaker 3: news day going, Well, it's for something that's true. But
11:54
Speaker 3: for the Seahawks, they're going to roll right through its
11:57
Speaker 3: starting today because of the shorter week, and they'll be
12:00
Speaker 3: practicing on New Year's even New Year's Day. It'll be
12:03
Speaker 3: interesting now because of the shorter week to see if
12:06
Speaker 3: the guys who missed, including the starting left tackle Charles
12:09
Speaker 3: Cross Kobe Bryant has safety. Although Tyre Coup put really
12:13
Speaker 3: well yesterday, especially in tackling, can those guys get back
12:16
Speaker 3: on the shorter week. Crosses injury the hamstring, We've talked
12:19
Speaker 3: about it not an injury to come back on short time.
12:24
Speaker 3: This might be another game that Josh Jones starts at
12:27
Speaker 3: left tackle, so they can give another week and they
12:29
Speaker 3: hope too if they win with a buy to give
12:31
Speaker 3: Charles Cross time off for that hamstring. But to answer
12:36
Speaker 3: your question, yeah, Christian McCaffrey is always a problem and
12:39
Speaker 3: always a problem against Seattle in the pass game. He's
12:42
Speaker 3: got a thousand yards they can eat rushing and receiving
12:45
Speaker 3: or damn near close. That's a concern for Seattle's defense.
12:50
Speaker 3: They got to start McCaffrey's runs early down so that
12:52
Speaker 3: it's third and longer for Brock Perdy. In the forty
12:56
Speaker 3: nine ers offense, Perdy and the Niners are going to
12:59
Speaker 3: go that deep middle of the field like they did
13:01
Speaker 3: last night against Chicago, like the Rams exploited the Seahawks
13:04
Speaker 3: with in two games ago. Kyle Shanahan, I think that's
13:08
Speaker 3: where the game plan is gonna start. You can do
13:10
Speaker 3: that if you're running the ball and getting effective shorter
13:13
Speaker 3: third downs so that the pass us doesn't affect you.
13:16
Speaker 3: Do Seahawks have a chance at it's longer third downs,
13:19
Speaker 3: which means stopped McCaffery early.
13:21
Speaker 1: Yeah, far more aesthetically a pleasing of a game last
13:23
Speaker 1: night that the forty nine Ers played than the ugly
13:25
Speaker 1: thing that you watched Charlotte yesterday. So I think the
13:30
Speaker 1: Zigg's gonna have to ugly it up if they're gonna
13:33
Speaker 1: win this game, and they're very good at that. So
13:35
Speaker 1: we shall see how big of a play now in
13:38
Speaker 1: hindsight was the J. C. Horn penalty. I mean, Carolina
13:43
Speaker 1: seemed to have all the momentum in the game at
13:46
Speaker 1: that moment, and so Seahawks end up winning it by
13:49
Speaker 1: seventeen points. But how big of a play in hindsight
13:56
Speaker 1: was that face mask penalty on JC Horn.
13:59
Speaker 3: Well, even at the time it was seventeen ten. You're right,
14:03
Speaker 3: the building was allowed for their own time in the game,
14:05
Speaker 3: although there was a lot of Seahawks fens there yesterday.
14:07
Speaker 3: But it was seventeen ten late third quarter on a
14:10
Speaker 3: third down. Really savvy played by Jackson Smith and Jigba
14:13
Speaker 3: a veteran play. He made sure he snapped his head
14:16
Speaker 3: back when the hand got on the face mask by
14:18
Speaker 3: Horn and then made sure the officials saw the face
14:22
Speaker 3: mask as he ran down out of bounds, well short
14:25
Speaker 3: of the line to gain I think it was thirty
14:26
Speaker 3: to twenty at the time. I thought that might just
14:29
Speaker 3: be a five yard face mask, but Smith and jigb
14:32
Speaker 3: really sold it. I mean like an Italian soccer player
14:35
Speaker 3: sold it. Went to his knees, just looked like he'd
14:38
Speaker 3: been shot. The officials decided it was fifteen. Smith and
14:43
Speaker 3: Jigba knew in that interm well he was laying on
14:45
Speaker 3: the ground, rolling around like he was looking for a
14:47
Speaker 3: red card, that the officials are trying to decide between
14:51
Speaker 3: five and fifteen a five yard penalty. They don't get
14:54
Speaker 3: the first down there fifteen automatic first down with the
14:56
Speaker 3: personal foul. That's what the officials ended up flagging. That
15:00
Speaker 3: was a Tyler Lockett like cell job by Jackson. I
15:04
Speaker 3: don't say I didn't say that that he didn't get
15:07
Speaker 3: his face mask grab, but he may sure made it
15:09
Speaker 3: look like it was the worst face mask grab in
15:12
Speaker 3: the history of the Seahawks franchise. Hey right, that was
15:15
Speaker 3: the that was Carolina's last chance. Looking back, they never
15:19
Speaker 3: got closer than that. But credit Smiths and Jigua, who,
15:22
Speaker 3: by the way, said another NFL mark yesterday. He's got
15:26
Speaker 3: seventeen hundred yards. He's the youngest, he's under twenty four still,
15:31
Speaker 3: and he joins Justin Jefferson as one of only three
15:34
Speaker 3: players in NFL history to get a seventeen hundred yards
15:37
Speaker 3: season before his twenty fourth birthday. Man, is he about
15:40
Speaker 3: to get a buttload of money this offseason. He's going
15:44
Speaker 3: in the final year of his contract next year. That's
15:46
Speaker 3: when the Seahawks always re up him. We're talking perhaps
15:49
Speaker 3: a two hundred million dollar deal for the NFL's leading receiver.
15:53
Speaker 1: Well, he needs the two thousand yards receiving this year,
15:56
Speaker 1: which means nearly three hundred Saturday against the forty nine Ors.
16:00
Speaker 1: So I think that should be a stated goal. Yeah, yeah, quick,
16:06
Speaker 1: fifteen seconds on this Rashid Shaheed, any update on the concussion.
16:10
Speaker 3: He's in the concussion protocol. This is another bad week
16:14
Speaker 3: in a short week, six games days between games for
16:17
Speaker 3: him to come back. That's a loss. That guy could
16:20
Speaker 3: break games and special teams. I was talking to Jay
16:23
Speaker 3: Harbo about that last week. Harbo said, he makes shit,
16:26
Speaker 3: makes a lot of their schemes look great. Plus he's
16:29
Speaker 3: taken defenses off of Smiths and Jigbit with the way
16:32
Speaker 3: he can mum in the middle of the field. That's
16:34
Speaker 3: a big loss of the Yuks and it doesn't look
16:37
Speaker 3: good on the six day rest of shah he can
16:39
Speaker 3: come back from a concussion.
16:40
Speaker 1: All right, Well, it's gonna be a fun week a preview,
16:44
Speaker 1: no question about it. This is what it's all about.
16:46
Speaker 1: Save travels on your way back from Charlotte. And thank
16:49
Speaker 1: you very much for taking time this morning to make
16:51
Speaker 1: this work.
16:52
Speaker 3: Thanks for flexing.
16:53
Speaker 1: Talk to you all week.
16:55
Speaker 2: All right.
16:55
Speaker 1: Greg Bell's flexing flexing on you out there with all
16:58
Speaker 1: his great information and insight. Seahawks winning over the Carolina
17:02
Speaker 1: Panthers twenty seven to ten. Our segment with Greg Bell
17:04
Speaker 1: normally conducted at seven oh five, but he had to
17:08
Speaker 1: come on early today to make his flight in Charlotte
17:11
Speaker 1: to get home. Well, it's brought to you by Coppola
17:14
Speaker 1: Diamond Prosecco. The tree. Well, it's probably come down, but
17:19
Speaker 1: the game is still on, right and the bubbles are
17:22
Speaker 1: still flowing. Popsip celebrate. Copola Diamond Collection Prosecco is light,
17:26
Speaker 1: refreshing and always ready to sparkle Game day bubbles only
17:31
Speaker 1: with Coppola Diamond Prosecco. All right, so we are underway
17:35
Speaker 1: in a little different way than we normally are on
17:38
Speaker 1: a Monday. Let's find out what is on tap for
17:41
Speaker 1: the rest of the show. What's on TEP, what's on top?
17:47
Speaker 1: That's Monday? What do you think is on tab? It's
17:49
Speaker 1: Monday morning, Quarterback Day. Hu Millan will be with us
17:51
Speaker 1: at eight o'clock, Mike Homgern'll be with us at nine o'clock,
17:54
Speaker 1: and instead of Greg, we'll get to sink our teeth
17:57
Speaker 1: into this twenty seven to ten Seahawks winner with the
18:00
Speaker 1: Carolina Panthers at seven oh five this morning, and then
18:03
Speaker 1: we won't go too far away from beginning the preview
18:07
Speaker 1: of Seahawks forty nine Ers because that's what is on deck.
18:11
Speaker 1: So they have set the schedule. This might be I
18:15
Speaker 1: don't know, if you're early morning people, you know you're
18:18
Speaker 1: up at six o'clock listening to the radio program and all.
18:21
Speaker 1: You might not have seen this, but you're a Seahawks fan,
18:24
Speaker 1: so you probably did. Seahawks will be playing the forty
18:28
Speaker 1: nine ers this week Saturday at five o'clock. So they
18:32
Speaker 1: flexed the entire last weekend of the regular season in
18:36
Speaker 1: the National Football League, and they always flex it to
18:40
Speaker 1: highlight those games that have everything on the line. So
18:43
Speaker 1: the Sunday night game is going to be Baltimore at Pittsburgh.
18:47
Speaker 1: Winner takes the division gets in the playoffs, the losers
18:51
Speaker 1: completely out. Won't be the same situation obviously when we
18:54
Speaker 1: take on the forty nine ers, but there's enough at
18:57
Speaker 1: play here. It's a great enough of a rivalry that
18:59
Speaker 1: they they do want to showcase it. And so Saturday night,
19:03
Speaker 1: the Seahawks and the forty nine ers will play at
19:06
Speaker 1: five o'clock and the division just playing simple the division
19:09
Speaker 1: championship and the number one seeds on the line, who
19:12
Speaker 1: ever wins that game gets the number one seed.
19:14
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean it's a playoff game, but it's not
19:17
Speaker 5: the one and done type of playoff game, and it's
19:19
Speaker 5: it's a big one you get not just to win
19:21
Speaker 5: the division, more so to get that number one seed.
19:25
Speaker 5: I think both of them are going to be going
19:26
Speaker 5: out there fighting hard to figure out who can come
19:28
Speaker 5: out on top of this thing. It's crazy to think
19:30
Speaker 5: that the Rams at this point don't have a chance
19:33
Speaker 5: at the number one seed, and yet the Niners still do.
19:35
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, And the Rams will be playing tonight Monday
19:39
Speaker 1: Night Football. I mean, they can still finish ahead of
19:41
Speaker 1: the forty nine Ers and the divisional standings, but as
19:45
Speaker 1: the way the tiebreaker goes, it's a head to head
19:47
Speaker 1: swarm and if the forty nine Ers were to win Saturday,
19:52
Speaker 1: that means that they would have the better head to
19:54
Speaker 1: head record against the three teams if they ended up
19:57
Speaker 1: with the same record in the NFC West, And so
19:59
Speaker 1: the forty nine win the division, win the number one seed,
20:02
Speaker 1: so the Rams have no shot at it at this stage.
20:04
Speaker 1: So that's how that cookie has crumbled Carolina. Now with
20:09
Speaker 1: the loss of the Seahawks, they still have a shot
20:11
Speaker 1: at getting into the playoffs. They got a couple of
20:14
Speaker 1: ways of getting in. We'll go over both of them
20:16
Speaker 1: a little bit later on, but the cleanest way is
20:19
Speaker 1: just to beat Tampa Bay Saturday, so the NFL will
20:22
Speaker 1: showcase that game as well at one thirty on Saturday afternoon.
20:26
Speaker 1: Both of those games will be on ABC. All right,
20:29
Speaker 1: College football playoff that resumes on Wednesday at four point
20:33
Speaker 1: thirty with Miami versus Ohio State, and then three games
20:36
Speaker 1: will be played Thursday on New Year's Day. Kraken have
20:40
Speaker 1: now won four straight. They defeated the Philadelphia Flyers last
20:43
Speaker 1: night four to one. They'll try to make it five
20:47
Speaker 1: in a row tonight against Vancouver and that game will
20:50
Speaker 1: start at seven o'clock at Climate Pledge Arena. And the
20:52
Speaker 1: stove was quiet over the weekend, but the Mariners are
20:56
Speaker 1: still being discussed as a team that is very interested
21:00
Speaker 1: in making moves to add a bat before the offseason
21:04
Speaker 1: comes to a close, so certainly worth monitoring. All Right,
21:07
Speaker 1: we'll get a chance to dive into all of these
21:09
Speaker 1: stories at great length today, both with our experts and
21:12
Speaker 1: amongst ourselves coming up on the show. But as we
21:15
Speaker 1: typically provide on a Monday morning at six point thirty.
21:19
Speaker 1: It's time for cold turkey sandwich, A board of scores,
21:23
Speaker 1: A look around the National Football League. Next on kJ R,
21:29
Speaker 1: perty a lot up at the shotgun.
21:31
Speaker 5: McCaffrey was right to receiver, stack right, two tight ends left.
21:35
Speaker 1: Bertie's gonna walk toward a lot of scriptage.
21:37
Speaker 5: Is gonna change the play, play clock down to eight.
21:41
Speaker 1: Party gets the snap, Party's gonna hand it off to caprio.
21:43
Speaker 1: Perty keeps it running around the left and he's into
21:45
Speaker 1: the head zone. Party does it again, his second rushing
21:50
Speaker 1: touched out of the game. Have of forty dollars or back?
21:53
Speaker 1: Get front, Ryan Raankey on the call Westwood one and Ashley,
22:00
Speaker 1: you really do sound sound great? You don't sound great? No,
22:04
Speaker 1: oh no, not your day to go on a concert tour.
22:06
Speaker 3: No tell you that.
22:07
Speaker 1: I do feel like I hear myself in stereo, which
22:09
Speaker 1: oh oh, not sick. It's all of my sinuses, my ears,
22:14
Speaker 1: so it's all on your head. It's all in my head,
22:16
Speaker 1: in my head, in my it's a zombie. Good morning.
22:21
Speaker 1: It is Chuck Buck and Ashley with you. We haven't
22:24
Speaker 1: had much time to catch up because Greg Bell joined
22:27
Speaker 1: us right off the that rude at six o'clock, and
22:30
Speaker 1: so we'll get our chance to do that in the
22:33
Speaker 1: seven o'clock hour, and then we hand things over to
22:35
Speaker 1: our experts from eight to ten. A lot of Seahawks
22:37
Speaker 1: football to discuss today. We'll get to all of it,
22:40
Speaker 1: but there's a lot of football in general to discuss.
22:42
Speaker 1: So it's time now for cold turkey sandwich, a board
22:46
Speaker 1: of scores right here on your favorite radio show, Chuck
22:48
Speaker 1: and Buck in the mornings. And so we'll start with
22:50
Speaker 1: San Francisco forty two to thirty eight winners over the
22:53
Speaker 1: Chicago Bears last night. High scoring affair ass predicted for
22:57
Speaker 1: a second week in a row, Rock purty five touchdowns
23:00
Speaker 1: that he was responsible for, this time two rushing, three throwing.
23:05
Speaker 1: After a pick six to start the game, he was
23:08
Speaker 1: nearly flawless the rest of the way and ends up
23:11
Speaker 1: outdueling Caleb Williams in a highly entertaining game forty two
23:16
Speaker 1: to thirty eight. It just didn't go the way that
23:18
Speaker 1: we wanted it to go here in the Pacific Northwest
23:20
Speaker 1: is it puts everything on the line Saturday.
23:23
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, I guess probably everybody would have wanted
23:26
Speaker 5: them to be able to figure out a way to
23:28
Speaker 5: sinse that thing up, right, because if they would have lost,
23:31
Speaker 5: and but the Rams would have lost tonight against the Falcons,
23:34
Speaker 5: maybe a bit unlikely that then they would have known
23:36
Speaker 5: that they were the number one seed, and you get
23:38
Speaker 5: to kind of rest instead of going in there with
23:40
Speaker 5: all the marbles or a lot of the marbles on
23:42
Speaker 5: the line.
23:43
Speaker 2: But what a back and forth battle.
23:45
Speaker 5: I mean, yeah, Caleb Williams is looking like, you know,
23:48
Speaker 5: a legitimate dude that should have been taking number one overall,
23:51
Speaker 5: and the defenses both looked a bit poorous, But then again,
23:56
Speaker 5: it was still a fun back and forth, and we
23:58
Speaker 5: were tired at like seven thirteen, twenty one and twenty
24:01
Speaker 5: eight and thirty five. It was just tit for tat.
24:03
Speaker 5: They were going after each other the whole way until
24:05
Speaker 5: the end.
24:05
Speaker 1: Some smart ass listener tweeted to me and said, Chuck
24:09
Speaker 1: Party looks a lot more like Chicken than Tofu tonight.
24:12
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, you're probably, Yeah, you're right. He looks
24:14
Speaker 1: pretty good right now.
24:15
Speaker 2: Yeah.
24:18
Speaker 1: Well, I've compared him to Tofu because he's planned, because
24:21
Speaker 1: he absorbs all the flavors around him, and as good
24:23
Speaker 1: as the flavors are around him. Then that's how good
24:25
Speaker 1: party is. But he's he's playing really well right now.
24:29
Speaker 1: And I think Guyle Shannan gets a lot of credit
24:31
Speaker 1: for the success that they've had. I think i'd name
24:34
Speaker 1: him Coach of the Year. There's a lot of competition
24:36
Speaker 1: out there. But man, we'll get into it a little
24:38
Speaker 1: bit later on when we talk about this matchup. On
24:41
Speaker 1: Saturday at seven thirty, Elsewhere across the National Football League,
24:45
Speaker 1: the Philadelphia Eagles and Buffalo Bills played also a wildly
24:50
Speaker 1: entertaining game, even though it was ugly Mucket up weather
24:56
Speaker 1: game only twenty five points combined. But I enjoyed this
25:00
Speaker 1: just as much as I did from an entertainment standpoint
25:03
Speaker 1: last night's forty nine Ers Bears games. That's to me,
25:08
Speaker 1: the best part about sports is that seven to six
25:12
Speaker 1: in a baseball game can be thrilling and soaking one
25:15
Speaker 1: to nothing, and I think there are a lot of
25:18
Speaker 1: people out there that if they don't score a lot
25:20
Speaker 1: of points, it was a terrible game. I thought that
25:23
Speaker 1: was a fantastic game between the Bills and the Eagles yesterday.
25:25
Speaker 5: Yeah, same here, And they're both the playoff teams and
25:28
Speaker 5: so it's they both I think are probably the two
25:31
Speaker 5: teams out of this weird year where you have teams,
25:33
Speaker 5: you know, the Bears are up there, and you know,
25:35
Speaker 5: the Broncos and the Jacksonville Jaguars with some teams that
25:39
Speaker 5: you don't typically see in the playoff race and they're
25:41
Speaker 5: up towards the top. It's a couple of teams like that,
25:44
Speaker 5: the Eagles and the Bills where you're like, well they
25:46
Speaker 5: got championship pedigree or they it feels like they could,
25:49
Speaker 5: and they went head to head, they went blow for blow.
25:52
Speaker 2: I don't know for sure.
25:53
Speaker 5: It felt to me like the Bills we had more
25:55
Speaker 5: points than zero going into the fourth quarter, like Josh
25:58
Speaker 5: Allen was playing well, and yet they just could not
26:01
Speaker 5: find a way to put any points on the board
26:03
Speaker 5: until the end.
26:03
Speaker 2: And then it was just too little, too lot.
26:05
Speaker 1: I've never seen a game more. You know, they talk
26:07
Speaker 1: about a game of inches. It was just that was
26:09
Speaker 1: the whole game. It's like it needed an inch more
26:11
Speaker 1: and otherwise you have a successful drive, but Buffalo ends
26:15
Speaker 1: up missing an extra point. It got blocked by Jalen Carter,
26:19
Speaker 1: who was phenomenal yesterday, and and then it forced them
26:23
Speaker 1: into we go for a tie at the end of
26:25
Speaker 1: regulation or do we go for the win? They decided
26:28
Speaker 1: to go for two and the win. I think it
26:31
Speaker 1: was the right call. It just didn't work out, and
26:33
Speaker 1: for of all the reasons, because Josh Allen hooked a
26:38
Speaker 1: wide open throw to a wide open receiver. I mean,
26:43
Speaker 1: he just doesn't do that. And yet the Buffalo Bills
26:46
Speaker 1: can't execute there. Josh Allen can't execute there. And so
26:50
Speaker 1: both teams now eleven and five on the year, and
26:53
Speaker 1: the Bills right now look like they're going to be
26:55
Speaker 1: the seventh seed in the playoffs. Who wants to be
26:58
Speaker 1: the two seed in the playoffs and have to them
27:00
Speaker 1: in the first round? Answer no? Yeah? And who might
27:05
Speaker 1: get that number two seed still could be Jacksonville twenty
27:08
Speaker 1: three seventeen winners over the Indianapolis Colts. Jacksonville still needs
27:13
Speaker 1: a win or a Houston loss next week for the division.
27:17
Speaker 1: They still have a shot at the number one seed
27:19
Speaker 1: from what I understand overall. Meanwhile, the Indianapolis Colts ended
27:23
Speaker 1: up going zero to three with Philip Rivers at quarterback.
27:27
Speaker 1: They lost seven of their last eight games, and they're
27:29
Speaker 1: a five hundred football team right now at eight and eight.
27:33
Speaker 1: The New England Patriots could end up being the one
27:35
Speaker 1: seed in the AFC. They defeated the Jets soundly yesterday
27:40
Speaker 1: forty two to ten to improve to thirteen and three
27:43
Speaker 1: on the year. They'll take on the Miami Dolphins, and
27:46
Speaker 1: a one seed certainly possible. The Patriots beat the Dolphins,
27:51
Speaker 1: which they should, and then they would need a loss
27:53
Speaker 1: by Denver, and Denver is going to have to face
27:56
Speaker 1: the Los Angeles Chargers. That could have been a far
27:59
Speaker 1: more interesting game had the Chargers taking care of business
28:02
Speaker 1: against the Texans on Saturday, but they lost that game,
28:06
Speaker 1: so that could have been for the division title and
28:09
Speaker 1: instead it's just gonna be the Chargers really just for
28:13
Speaker 1: playoff positioning they're in, and the Denver Bronco is gonna
28:17
Speaker 1: have a lot more at stake, So it'll be interesting
28:20
Speaker 1: to see if the Chargers are full assault. I mean
28:23
Speaker 1: pretty much every Chargers game is how much can we
28:27
Speaker 1: just sit back and watch our quarterback have the hell
28:30
Speaker 1: be beaten out of them? That's the Chargers game plan
28:33
Speaker 1: every week.
28:33
Speaker 2: Yeah.
28:33
Speaker 1: Yeah, and they're eleven and five doing that.
28:36
Speaker 2: Yeah. It's weird.
28:37
Speaker 5: It seems like there's a bunch of teams and Chargers
28:39
Speaker 5: one of them where it's like, man, after a certain week,
28:42
Speaker 5: you feel like that is a scary team, and then
28:44
Speaker 5: you watch them another week and you're like, it doesn't
28:46
Speaker 5: look that scary, and yet they're gonna I think they're
28:49
Speaker 5: gonna come out and bring it. Seems like the way
28:51
Speaker 5: Harbaugh would do it, like, Hey, we're not going into
28:53
Speaker 5: this where we're gonna coast or rest a bunch of guys.
28:56
Speaker 5: Even though the only thing that's kind of on the
28:58
Speaker 5: line is the seeding part of it. I'm sure that
29:00
Speaker 5: the division rival against the Broncos, they'd like to knock
29:03
Speaker 5: them out of the number one seed.
29:04
Speaker 1: Well, I think there's a huge value to be in
29:07
Speaker 1: the five seed two because you get to face that
29:10
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Baltimore winner as opposed to a good team. So
29:16
Speaker 1: maybe you know, with that at stake, I would imagine,
29:19
Speaker 1: I think you're right full assault and it could end
29:22
Speaker 1: up benefiting Jacksonville or New England. We shall see. So
29:26
Speaker 1: twenty to sixteen, Houston won over the Chargers. That's going
29:28
Speaker 1: all the way back to Saturday. Houston is in the
29:31
Speaker 1: playoffs as well and still have a shot at winning
29:34
Speaker 1: their division. Baltimore won over Green Bay forty one to
29:38
Speaker 1: twenty four Saturday night, Derek Henry had two hundred and
29:40
Speaker 1: sixteen yards and four touchdowns with Lamar Jackson on the
29:44
Speaker 1: sideline with an injury, so they needed they had to
29:48
Speaker 1: have Pittsburgh lose to Cleveland yesterday to have a shot
29:52
Speaker 1: at making the playoffs, and that's exactly what happened. Will
29:56
Speaker 1: dk Metcalf end up being blamed in Pittsburgh if the
29:59
Speaker 1: Steer blow their last two games without him because he
30:04
Speaker 1: had to confront a fan on the sidelines, Well, that's
30:08
Speaker 1: what they're confronting right now. Cleveland beat the Steelers thirteen
30:12
Speaker 1: to six as Pittsburgh couldn't get any offense going. Miles
30:16
Speaker 1: Garrett could not get his sack to set the single
30:19
Speaker 1: season record for the Cleveland Browns. But the Browns do
30:22
Speaker 1: win the game, should or Sanders look pretty good. Thirteen
30:25
Speaker 1: to six the final score. So it now comes down
30:27
Speaker 1: to Pittsburgh and Baltimore in Pittsburgh Sunday night for the
30:30
Speaker 1: division and a spot in the playoffs.
30:32
Speaker 4: Yeah.
30:33
Speaker 5: I thought that would be the game that they would
30:35
Speaker 5: have flexed the Seahawks into it, and they still flex
30:37
Speaker 5: the Seahawks Niners game into basically primetime. I mean there'll
30:40
Speaker 5: be nothing else to watch on Saturday night other than
30:42
Speaker 5: that game. But you know, then they went with the
30:45
Speaker 5: Lamar Jackson if he's back, and Derrick Henry and who
30:48
Speaker 5: knows if it's Aaron Rodgers last game. It's there's a few.
30:51
Speaker 5: There's three different games this weekend that are going to
30:53
Speaker 5: be for you know, basically our essentially playoff games.
30:56
Speaker 2: It's gonna be fun.
30:57
Speaker 1: Yeah, well this one is the winners in, losers out. Oh,
31:00
Speaker 1: I'm not surprised they went with it. Plus, those guys
31:02
Speaker 1: are just such Every Pittsburgh Baltimore game feels like it's
31:06
Speaker 1: a classic. So not surprised by that. But that would
31:09
Speaker 1: be the Sunday night matchup. To wrap up the regular season.
31:12
Speaker 1: Cincinnati won over Arizona thirty seven to fourteen. Remember when
31:15
Speaker 1: we thought that Cardinals could be pretty good this year?
31:18
Speaker 1: Oh those were the days. Yeah, those were the days.
31:20
Speaker 1: They're three and thirteen.
31:21
Speaker 6: Meanwhile, the Joe Burrow tees again injured all year long,
31:26
Speaker 6: fall out of the playoffs yet look really phenomenal right
31:30
Speaker 6: at the end of the season, and you wonder how
31:32
Speaker 6: much damage they could.
31:33
Speaker 1: Have done had they not been bad early on in
31:36
Speaker 1: the season that or had Joe Burrow stayed healthy, so
31:38
Speaker 1: the Joe Burrow Tese we got to experience it again
31:41
Speaker 1: this year. They destroyed the Cardinals. They are six and
31:44
Speaker 1: ten on the season. Speaking of six and ten, the
31:46
Speaker 1: New Orleans Saints are six and ten. They've won four
31:49
Speaker 1: straight games in an absolute clinic on how to destroy
31:53
Speaker 1: your draft position. So New Orleans wins thirty four to
31:57
Speaker 1: twenty six over the Tennessee Titans, who one point led
32:00
Speaker 1: thirteen to nothing in that game. Tampa Bay's lost seven
32:04
Speaker 1: of their last eight games. They lost to Miami twenty
32:07
Speaker 1: to seventeen, and yet still have a shot at making
32:12
Speaker 1: the playoffs and winning their division, where they win over
32:16
Speaker 1: Carolina on Saturday. And finally, the New York Giants thirty
32:21
Speaker 1: four to ten winners over the Las Vegas Raiders and
32:24
Speaker 1: the Number one Pick Bowl. The Raiders denying that they
32:28
Speaker 1: tanked the game yesterday, but their best player disagrees, as
32:33
Speaker 1: Max Crosby showed videos of himself playing basketball at his
32:37
Speaker 1: house and just how capable he was on a knee.
32:40
Speaker 1: They said he was too injured to play in the
32:43
Speaker 1: game in and so the Raiders now in clear control
32:48
Speaker 1: of the last or excuse me, the worst record in
32:52
Speaker 1: the National Football League and they have an eighty I
32:55
Speaker 1: think eighty percent chance of getting the number one pick
32:58
Speaker 1: in the NFL track. And so there you go. They'll
33:01
Speaker 1: wrap up the week with Atlanta at the Rams tonight
33:04
Speaker 1: on Monday Night football, and you can hear that action
33:06
Speaker 1: right here on Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM
33:10
Speaker 1: at five point fifteen on a frost brewed Corse Light
33:13
Speaker 1: shoes Chill Monday. We'll check in with Coach Bucky next
33:16
Speaker 1: on kjar kind of chew on this twenty seven ten
33:20
Speaker 1: Seahawks went over the Carolina Panthers. But before that, Coach
33:23
Speaker 1: Bucky pays us a visit. How was your holiday, Coach Bucky?
33:26
Speaker 2: It was wonderful. It was really it was really nice.
33:29
Speaker 5: Got to go down to Troy Cities and see the fam, mom, dad,
33:33
Speaker 5: and most of my brothers and sisters or brother and
33:36
Speaker 5: sisters and a ton of nieces and nephew.
33:39
Speaker 2: I mean, it's a big, big get together.
33:42
Speaker 5: It's it's quite the it's quite the fiasco, to be honest,
33:47
Speaker 5: and yet it's it was fun.
33:49
Speaker 2: The kids got had a lot of fun.
33:51
Speaker 5: I think they're all getting to the age now, at
33:53
Speaker 5: least my kids are getting the age now where they
33:56
Speaker 5: enjoy the playing with cousins, right. I mean when they
33:58
Speaker 5: were really little, they don't even know their cousins were
34:00
Speaker 5: trying out loud. Now it's the I can't wait to
34:03
Speaker 5: see Matthew, I can't wait to do this, and and
34:05
Speaker 5: so it was fun they did that. We went to
34:07
Speaker 5: a little bounce house a day after Christmas, like trampoline
34:11
Speaker 5: arcade place, and you have Bear was doing front flips
34:15
Speaker 5: and all kinds of other stuff.
34:16
Speaker 2: I'm just like, don't land on your head, don't land
34:18
Speaker 2: on your head. And he didn't.
34:19
Speaker 5: Sweating like crazy out there. Gracie's running around just not
34:23
Speaker 5: a care in the world, just as bigger kids running
34:26
Speaker 5: by on the trampoline. I'm like, nobody better run my
34:29
Speaker 5: daughter over out there. Nobody did, so it was all good, no, no,
34:34
Speaker 5: no harm. I almost stepped up on one of those
34:36
Speaker 5: They have a balance beam with like a phone pit
34:37
Speaker 5: below it.
34:38
Speaker 2: You have a like pugil stick thing. I almost stepped
34:41
Speaker 2: up there.
34:44
Speaker 5: Yeah, you could have pretended you were Storm. That's why
34:48
Speaker 5: I would have picked Storm. Yeah, that's that why I
34:51
Speaker 5: would have looked a lot like Storm up there. I
34:53
Speaker 5: decided not to go up there and beat up on children. Instead,
34:56
Speaker 5: I just stood on the.
34:56
Speaker 1: Sidelin had because I would have been very entert It.
35:00
Speaker 5: Would have been funny, except I was just worried that
35:02
Speaker 5: once I found the phone pit, I may not have
35:04
Speaker 5: been able to get out. So that was where I
35:07
Speaker 5: didn't want that to be fair?
35:08
Speaker 2: Right, right?
35:09
Speaker 1: You don't want that haunting you for the rest of
35:11
Speaker 1: your dreams.
35:12
Speaker 5: Yeah, the fat guy that gets stuck in kids phone bit,
35:16
Speaker 5: i'd go viral.
35:17
Speaker 1: All right, Well, let me ask you, coach Bucky forty
35:21
Speaker 1: nine ers Seahawks, what's your gut right now?
35:26
Speaker 5: Well, boy, I mean, based on what I saw, I
35:30
Speaker 5: have a feeling that Niners are the Niners are better
35:32
Speaker 5: than what the Panthers are offensively, and so I don't
35:36
Speaker 5: see that the Seahawks are going to go out there
35:39
Speaker 5: and be able to be as dominant statistically. But I
35:42
Speaker 5: would say that if you had to say, where do
35:44
Speaker 5: you feel like there's an advantage, I think it's Seahawks'
35:47
Speaker 5: defense is the biggest advantage in this game, because the
35:50
Speaker 5: Seahawks offense has shown signs of being potent and has
35:54
Speaker 5: shown signs of being able to put up some serious points.
35:56
Speaker 2: Quicken in a.
35:57
Speaker 5: Hurry and that Niners defense, I mean they can get
36:00
Speaker 5: after the passer. That's what gets Sam Darnold in trouble,
36:03
Speaker 5: whether it's forcing fumbles or whether it's forcing him into
36:06
Speaker 5: making a decision maybe not the best decision that he
36:09
Speaker 5: could make, and turning the ball over. So I mean,
36:11
Speaker 5: right now, my gut would probably say Seahawks end up
36:14
Speaker 5: winning this thing and getting the number one seed.
36:15
Speaker 1: Oh wow, look at that. I like that current Bucky. Yeah,
36:19
Speaker 1: nice job, coach Bucket, good evaluation. Well, we'll talk more
36:22
Speaker 1: about it coming up at seven point thirty. But as
36:25
Speaker 1: I mentioned, we haven't even had a chance to talk
36:27
Speaker 1: about yesterday's win because Greg hogged the spotlight at six
36:31
Speaker 1: o'clock this morning. So we'll get into that plus your
36:34
Speaker 1: headlines next. We're just getting going here on a Monday
