• 1:00
  Speaker 1: Carolina fans heading for the exits. What of folks? This
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: is Michael Bumbas Hawk Talk Recap edition along with my
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: producer Nasa Shelby. The Hawks are eleven and three, went
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: onto the road and good old North Carolina Charlotte got
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: her done. The Twelves were deep. Panthers were lacking a
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: lot of support out there, but it didn't matter. These
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: guys were focused and they beat the Panthers thirty to
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: twenty four. I wouldn't call it a statement win, but
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: it was still convincing, because that's the thing. Man, it's
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: the final scores thirty to twenty four, but that was
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: not how the game was going. The Seahawks were smacking them.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: It was thirty to ten. They played with offense, defense,
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: all sides of the ball. It was great to see. Obviously,
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: we'll get into it. They made a late comeback. We
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: had to let guys injured, but no, it was great
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: to see. Not necessarily you said, not a statement game,
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: but they got there, kind of got their mojo back,
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Yep, they got their swagger back.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: Here are the main takeaways from that game. The Seahawks
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: bounced back in a big way. The final score was
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: not addictive with the game how the game went, but
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: the Seahawks were dominating forced slight. My guy Nast was
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: talking about the Seahawks created three turnovers on defense and
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: almost had a pick six. Young Ugo. I'm still kind
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: of torn in between that. I talked to Pete about
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: that play. He cut the ball two feet down. He
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: says he's a bang bang play. He doesn't disagree with
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: the call, but he can also see how we would
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: think that that was a pick six. Well, I think
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: what he thinks is also or not necessarily. Pete thinks
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: what I think is that because they ruled it a
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: touchdown on the field and it happened, so bang bang.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: I know officials are better about this day and age,
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: letting plays finish out. I thought he got one two.
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: I think he got the two feet down, and I
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: know they say you have to kind of add another
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: football move on top of that. It's tough to see
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: see the rookie not getting his touchdown, but he's still
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: smooth with it. It was the balls on the ground.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: He scooped that up and gets in the end zone.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: So it's still good to see him get his hands
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: on football. He had a nice little burst. He said
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: he scored six touchdowns as a senior at Oregon, so
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: we know that he has ball skills. Another takeaway, Russell
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: Wilson and his passing offense got back on track, and
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: Lockett got back on track. I think this is huge
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: for this offense going forward. You've seen as a locket
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: has struggled these past three games, this passing offense has
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: struggled these past three games. He's a catalyst. He's a
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: guy that keeps this thing moving. And he looked strong
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: and he looked healthy this game. Oh you can tell.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: He looked explosive and what you see, he loved seeing
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: the deep passing game back at it. He I think
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: he had a reception for forty four yards. So you
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: love to see the big plays coming back and that
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: pass off and something that we've lacked really since that
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: Buccaneers game. Another takeaway, Chris Carson is a man amongst
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: the boys. I mean he's every week he seems to
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: get better and better. And you think about backs and
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: football players as a season goes along, as a game
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: goes along, either you're getting weaker or you're getting stronger,
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: and it seems like he's getting stronger. And one thing
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: I loved about the game yesterday and Chris Carson's Carson
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: Carson was his ball security. At no point did I
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: feel like that thing was lose. He had two hands
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: on the football going through the first level into the
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: second level and didn't shy away from contact. When you
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: have fumble wall sometimes you're like, you know what, I'm
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: gonna get down. I'm gonna get out of bounce. Thirty
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: two said, no, I'm not changing anything. I'm doing what
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: I do. Chris exactly exactly what you said. Chris does
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: what he does. He loves seeing that physical style of playing,
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: just how he conducts himself. And when her highly we
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: played coming in as he just runs over everybody in
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: the end zone, keeps his feet going on fourth down.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: You just love to see it. And like you said,
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: he's not fazed by any of the fumbling stuff that's
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: behind him. He's got it rolling and he's really really
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: important to what we do on offense. Last second way
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: the Hawks overcame a lot of injuries. Ziggyanza didn't play,
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: just David Clowney didn't play. Milcol Kind just was out,
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: Chico Griffin was out. Then during the game there's a
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: point where Quandre rolled his ankle, Bobby Wagner rolled his ankle.
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: So you look out of that defense and you're missing one, two, three,
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: four or five six starters, So at one point you
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: had a rookie in LJ Cody Barton, Blair Amadi, am
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: I missing anybody probably, I mean the whole rookie classes
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: out there. I mean it, it was pretty wild man,
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: and that this kind of speaks to I think a
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: little of the comeback lay. You can chalk some of
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: that up to, like you said, when you're down six
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: starters in the NFL, six starters especially, and when Bobby's
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: not on the field. I mean, Bobby is he's our captain,
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: he's our leader, he communicates everything. So yeah, I mean
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: it was still impressive the fact that they got out
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: of there with all those injuries and how well they
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: played defensively early on, creating turnovers, getting after Kyle Allen
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: early on when they came into the game missing four guys.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: So hopefully a lot of those guys get healthy and
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: get back on track as we get into the stretch
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: run here the last two games. And it's nice. So
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: you said it, you can have all those guys album
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: and expectations don't change. You still expect these guys to
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: get it done. Big ups to the number twos who
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: came in and backed those guys up. Let's move over
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: to the top performers. Tyler Lockett eight receptions, it's one
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: hundred and twenty yards, one touchdown. He's now at nine
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: hundred and ninety four yards on the season. He's already
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: passed his single season career numbers. This guy disappeared for
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: three weeks and now he's back and he's at nine
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: hundred ninety four yards and he's missed three weeks. Could
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: you imagine what his numbers would have been if he
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: was a Tyler Lockett, the healthy Tyler Lockett that we
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: knew for six, six or seven weeks prior to that.
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: That's the tough thing because after that Buccaneers game, he
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: was on pace to break every single record, now include
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: Steve Lars and that includes Dug Ball, non clues, Brian Blades,
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: Jackson and all those guys. He was on pace and
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: break all those records because he was with receptions and
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: yards and touchdowns. So it was tough to see him
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: go through that three week stretch, especially because he's still
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: dealing with stuff. I mean, people forget that flu was
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: That flu was real, man. That flu took it out
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: of him. He lost about ten pounds he said post games.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: So he's still trying to get back to it. So
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: it's a shame that we didn't get to see that,
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: but you know, better late than never. Happy to see
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: Tyler back to where he's at. Next top performer, Russell
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: Wilson was twenty for twenty six, twenty eighty six shards,
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: two touchdowns with a QB rating of one thirty seven
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: point seven. The main thing I appreciate it from Russell
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: was no turnovers. This is the first time in three
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: or four weeks where he has not throwing the interception.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: He got back to doing what Russell does efficient passing
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: the ball twenty for twenty six and making big plays
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: two touchdowns and a couple big throws down the field,
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: which we'll talk about later. The Seahawks eleven victory of
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: this season is also Russell Wilson's eighty six regular season win,
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: which ties him with the grade Tom Brady for the
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: most wins in the first eight seasons in NFL history. Again,
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: another week, another stat for Russell. I mean, it just
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: it's never ending. We know we're gonna get with Russell.
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: He plays a game, he's breaking some kind of record.
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: And the thing I love about that is Seahawks eleven victory. Okay,
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: first time the Seahawks have won eleven games in twenty fourteen.
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: And I was listening, I was watching some of the
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: twitter of some of our guys last night, and Quandre
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: Diggs tweeted something like, hey, man, I don't think I
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: don't won eleven games since either high school or like Peewee.
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: So it's just it kind of puts that into perspective.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: And Pooda said the same thing. So it puts into
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: perspective for Seahawks fans out there to not take for
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: granted success in this run that the Seahawks have been
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: on since Russell and Pete have gotten together. Don't take
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: it for granted because it could be a lot worse.
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: Eleven wins seven to one on the road. That it's
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: hard to do in the National Football League. So it's
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: good to see and good to see Russell get back
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: on track. Hard to do in their doing it. The
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: Hawks and proved to thirty one and seven after a
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: loss with Russell Wilson as their QB. So safe to
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: say if they've taken l most likely they're not gonna
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: take two in a row. And that proved to be true.
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: This weekend, he passed Drew Brees for the fifth for
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: fifth place and most passing years with the first eight
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: season NFL history, he's fifth. And he don't throw the
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: ball line so he's super efficient, and he throws bombs
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: down the field. When he gets loose, he gets loose again.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: It's so we're so fortunate to see a Hall of
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: Fame career of happened before very Yes, I grew up
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: in La, so I got a sport. I'm sported. I
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: saw the Lakers win five championships. They win five, I
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: leave a later to go to college. Use man, they
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: won three. I leave La to go to college. They
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: win two. Then they haven't won one in like seven
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: to eight years. Like and I felt like I didn't
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: appreciate it. You know, yeah, I'm getting old. I looked back.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: I'm like, man, I had a good man. Every year
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: the Lakers are in this hunt something. Appreciate what you're
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: seeing right here. Almost every year these guys are in
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: the playoffs. Only twice, I believe in Pete Carroll's tenure career,
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: they haven't made the playoffs. So this is just becoming
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: part of who they are and what they do yeah, man,
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: I mean success. The worst season under with Pete Carroll
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: and Russell Wilson was nine and seven. Nine and seven
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: was nine and seven. So just Hawk fans remember that,
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: enjoy the ride. Wins or wins. There's no beauty points,
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: there's no BCS, there's no RPI, none of that. At
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: the end of the day, wins what matters and the
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: Hawks keep doing it, yes, sir. Next top performer, kJ
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: Wright four tackles, two passes defended, two interceptions. Coming into
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: this game, he had three career interceptions and now he
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: gets two in a game, young kJ And what I
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: like about this is all week right myself included Pete Man,
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: play more nickel, play more nickel, middle of the fields,
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: wide open, and what they do Bobby has a pick,
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: kJ has a pick. Cut all that noise. We're gonna
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: stick with this base defense and there these linebackers are
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: gonna make play and you love seeing it too, because
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: that's again without Michael Kendricks too, who's in a great
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: fast coverage guy, a great guy getting out the quarterback.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: So in kJ Man damn three interceptions his entire career
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: for him to get two picks in five plays, five plays.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: I mean, think about all the games he's been in,
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: all the battles he's been, all the times he's been
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: in coverage. So it's always great to see a fan
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: favorite like kJ Right getting his hands on the ball
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: and his boy Bobby Wagner has got to throw him
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: under the bus. I just can't let him bathe in it,
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: you know, and his glory is two interceptions. He has
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: to get on him about the return skills. Man, they
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: wouldn't be boys if you did. That's just what boys do.
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: I told you during the game. I was like, oh man,
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: they're gonna be on Kj's head for that. And then
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: kJ said he had a dream that he had two picks.
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: And I'm a big I'm a big component of like
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: deja vo. I've had moments in football games where I'm
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: lined up and i know what's gonna happen because I've
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: dreamed it or I felt it before. So I'm a
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: big believer if you visualize it, it will happen. And
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: kJ obviously does a great job visualizing the attack and
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: making things happen. So big ups to the young man,
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: young kJ Right. Yeah, no, kJ Wright was killing it. Um.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: Next guy, Bobby Wagner again. Of course, look Bobby another
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: date the obviously, if you see a stat line, just
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: expect double dig tackles from that guy. And then he
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: adds another big interception where he just kind of muscle
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: it from ripped it away. So Bobby's just doing this thing.
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: Bobby's doing the staying. Ten tackles, two passes defending, like
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: we said, one interception. He's second in the NFL and
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: tackles with one hundred and thirty nine behind Blake Martinez,
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: last top performer. The I want to say heart and
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: soul of this team, the heartbeat, some important organ on
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: this football team. It's mister Chris Carson. Twenty four carries,
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: one hundred thirty three yards, two touchdowns. It's not just
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: the stats, it's the way he does it. It's convincing.
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: It's not it's not okay, you got two big players
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: of fifty yard runs. It's I'm gonna run between these tackles.
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna pick up these tough yards. Then I'll have
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: a twenty yard burst. I'm gonna pick up more tough tackles.
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna bounce this outside. I'm gonna do this in
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: multiple ways. You can't just expect me to run north
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: and south. Now he showed he'll hit the brakes and
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: bounce it outside and turn on the jets as well.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: He'll do all of it. Like you said, He'll get outside,
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: he'll run you over. He'll be patient when he gets
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: the ball. Sometimes it's not there. He's patient. He's reading
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: his offensive line in front of him, making smart plays
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: down the stretch and the end of the game. He
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: gets outside and has a presence of mind to slide
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: and keep a clock running. So Chris Carson, he does
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: it all, man, he does it all, and I love
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: to see a guy like Ham in locker room. He's
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: now at eleven hundred ninety rush yards for the season.
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: That's a new career high YEA. Since twenty eighteen, Chris
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: Carson has had twelve one hundred yard rushing games. That's
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: tied for the most in the NFL. During that spend,
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: he know he's tied with pretty sure, he's tied with
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliot, Zekiel Elliot, and then he's a baller. Nothing
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: against twenty one. But Chris Carson needs a little more
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: love in this league. I feel like within this period
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: he's probably respected but on the outside with the media,
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: I don't think he gets enough love. Not enough people
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: will understand. Talk to defenses, talk to every defense after
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: a Seahawks game, and then I promise you they'll be like, hey, yeah,
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: that boy Chris Carson, he's a real deal. I mean
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: when they're telling you that from the ice tub, because
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: Chris Carson is just punishing everybody he doesn't get to
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: do with deserves. But we know how good Chris is
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: out here, so I'd love to see it as we
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: do wide receiver round up. Like we said, Tyler Locket
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: had eight for one twenty and a touchdown. Safe to
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: say he's back. He had eight receptions on nine targets
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: Josh Gordon. He may have only had one catch, but
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: that might be the I'd say, maybe the second or
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: third biggest catch on this team this year. Number one
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: obviously goes so Tyler Locket against the Rams. I'm sure
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: there's a two in there. But this catch Josh Gordon
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: made over his shoulder middle of the field with his
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: fingertips and still had to tuck the ball. And brock
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: Huart said it the best and had all that gravity
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: gravity this land on the football to wear up. It
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: could have easily popped out. We saw C. J. Prosies
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: had an incident during the game where he lands on
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: the ball and then popped out the fact that he
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: brought that thing and it made it look so easy.
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's just it doesn't look difficult for this
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: guy's beautiful to watch. No, let let's hear that play.
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: With a flot on the left, here comes the Blintz
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: rush steps up as the Hawks pick it up, throw deep,
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: got a man out there, Chase Holy catfitch a cat
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: down of the twenty five yard line. Josh Gordon, timing
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: flung the end of his fingertips. Baby, what a catch
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: and welcome mister Gordon. A huge game of the Seahawks
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: in Carolina territory. A fifty nine yard reception. All right,
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: since we're talking about let's get under the hood school
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: coaches corner bump, you kind of talked about this this
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: specifics of the catch. But what went did that play? Simple?
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: I saw two high defense. I saw the guy streak
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: up the field, split the safeties, and then after that,
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: it's all disability and chemistry. Russell Wilson. Wilson, when I
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: saw him throw that football, the trajectory of the ball.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: I'm like, that thing shot straight up in the air.
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, he's going deep. And now what's so
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: difficult about this catch is one, let's not forget you
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: have a helmet on. Okay, this thing has some weight
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: to it. It restricts your vision a bit. Are you're
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: running full speed, You're looking straight up into the sky
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: for this little brown thing in the air. You're trying
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: to pick up his velocity, all right, and then it's
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: out in front of you, so you're you're stretched out.
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: It's not a natural position. It's not a strong position
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: to be running and catch a football with your hands
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: straight out right now, you have the ball in your hands,
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: a fingertip catch, not even in your palms. Wasn't even
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: like a secured catch, a fingertip catch, and then you
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: bring it into your body quick enough to where once
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: you hit the ground you have complete control of it.
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: It was just a really athletic play from a really
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: athletic football player. Well, when I look at it, um,
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: we have a lot of talented receivers on this football team,
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: but that play right there, I think Josh Gordon's the
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: only person that makes that play with that full extension,
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: just his size, the body control, as you mentioned, the
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: long arms, and he was striding too. He was he
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: was hustling out, you know what I mean. So it
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: was yeah, that other than like you said, other than
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: Lockett's toe tap and then the other diving catch I
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: think he had against the Ravens. That that's probably the
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: best catch we've seen all season. Yeah, best catch we've
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: seen all season. And he makes it look easy. Then
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: he gets up like nothing like before. Yeah. Man, come on, man, man,
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: look look at my history. Man, I do this. I
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: was the next play he's been in. But the rest
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: of the receivers, all right, So you mentioned Josh Gordon,
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: What else do you see for those guys we get
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: DK had two catches for thirty six yards, one nineteen
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: yard touchdown, which was great because I think what he
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: needs to improve on is just attacking the football in
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: the air and how to attack it, meaning hand selection.
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: How are my hands gonna be when I catched this football?
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: And as the season's gone along, he's seen him get
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: more and more comfortable making those big, big plays, especially
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: over the top. Malik Turner had three catches for twenty
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: six yards, which I was happy to see because he
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: did have a drop against the Rams. I asked Pete
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: even bringing that up, He goes, no, we knew he'd
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: be all right, but as a receiver, I feel for him.
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: So to see him come back and have three catches awesome.
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: Jacob Hollister three cats for twenty three. He also had
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: a drop, came back three catches awesome. Both of these
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: guys had three targets three catches after having dropped the
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: previous week. That means their mental toughness is crazy. C. J.
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: Prosie had a cast for ten yards. Jb our Boy
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: JB had a cast for nine. Chris Carson had one
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: cast for four. A. George Fan almost had a touchdown.
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: He caught that ball. Now he caught the ball that
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: was the second that might be the number four. You're right,
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: you are right that list because that was not an
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: easy football to catch. When he went on this route,
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: I go, oh, is that George Fan. I'm like, he's
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: running a deep rout and oh my goodness, he just
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: you know, maybe he's getting the receivers a little bit
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: more to work on getting those big feet in the
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: end zone. It's a lot different now, but that for
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: him a guy that size is moving that way to
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: get his hands on the ball underneath the football. It
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: was great to see. So it doesn't count in the
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: stat book, but it counts for the rest of us
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: because we all saw it. Yeah, he needs to put
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: that on his highlight tape, show his kids. Right. The
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: best thing we learned from this game, the Seahawks finished
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: a regular season with a seven one wrecking on the road,
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: which is the best Enfranchise history. Again, seven and one
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: on the road, it's very tough to do. All the
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: East Coast games that they have. They take care. They
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: take care of the road. Now, if they take care
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: of home, they were gonna set themselves up for a
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: great offseason. They Seahouse got the passing offense back on track,
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: and Tyler Lockett was a big part of that. Again,
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: if he's not bawling, if he's not healthy, if he's
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: not explosive, this passing game is gonna struggle bet last,
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: but not at least first place in the NFC West
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: with two games to go, you guys saw the Niners
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: lose last play to the Falcons. You saw the Rams
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: get beat up by the Cowboys. The Hawks took care
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: of business. They have clinched the playoff spot. Now it's
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: about getting that division and they take care of business.
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: Next two weeks they should be able to do that again.
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: Thanks for listening, it's been real. I'm your host, Michael
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: Bumpus along with my boy my dog Nasa Choby. We
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: will see you next time.
