Speaker 2: KJR dot com. Get it going, all right, A lot
3:44
Speaker 2: planning for you today. Let's light this firecracker. And you know,
3:48
Speaker 2: normally football Friday is when you reserve, you know, your
3:52
Speaker 2: final judgment. You've taken all the information that you can
3:55
Speaker 2: possibly take from the week. You've listened to your experts.
3:58
Speaker 2: You know, some from here, some from there, some from everywhere,
4:02
Speaker 2: and then you get around no cliche keys to victory
4:06
Speaker 2: at six forty five on Friday, and you're pretty much like, Okay,
4:10
Speaker 2: this is what's going to take to win? Are and
4:12
Speaker 2: then are we going to win? I'm not gonna wait
4:15
Speaker 2: till tomorrow. I have enough information gathered. I have heard
4:18
Speaker 2: it like a shepherd of football information, and I think
4:24
Speaker 2: the final piece of information that I needed. I'm driving
4:27
Speaker 2: home last yesterday after the show, MJ's got Ray Ratto on.
4:32
Speaker 2: Ray Rado has been covering the San Francisco forty nine
4:35
Speaker 2: Ers for years. I mean, this goes all the way
4:37
Speaker 2: back to when I did national stuff and he used
4:40
Speaker 2: to be our forty nine ers guy when I worked
4:42
Speaker 2: in Vegas, and so ray Rado has been covering this
4:45
Speaker 2: organization for years and ray Rado MJ asked ray Rato
4:52
Speaker 2: about the Seahawks chances kind of roughly was the Seahawks
4:57
Speaker 2: chances in the game on Saturday? Rado said, I think
5:01
Speaker 2: the Seahawks are gonna hammer them, and I'm like, that's
5:06
Speaker 2: how I feel. Yeah, you know and not gonna apologize
5:10
Speaker 2: for it. And I think I can boastfully say I
5:12
Speaker 2: don't think it's local bias. I just feel that, you know,
5:17
Speaker 2: at the beginning of the season, maybe I underestimated the
5:20
Speaker 2: San Francisco forty nine ers. It's clear that I did.
5:22
Speaker 2: I did too. But and Kyle Shanahan, who I've said
5:26
Speaker 2: should be Coach of the Year this year in the
5:28
Speaker 2: National Football League for everything he's overcome, But the truth
5:30
Speaker 2: of the matter is they still have so much more
5:33
Speaker 2: to overcome. I mean, this isn't us facing that team
5:37
Speaker 2: we faced on opening Day. This is a team that's
5:40
Speaker 2: without Nick Bosa. Might get Fred Warner back, but it
5:43
Speaker 2: doesn't sound like he'll make it back in time. Doesn't
5:45
Speaker 2: have George Kittle, doesn't have Brandon Ayuk, who was supposed
5:49
Speaker 2: to be on this team by now, may not have
5:51
Speaker 2: Ricky Piersall. Even if they do have him, he's not
5:53
Speaker 2: going to be one hundred percent. Trent Williams isn't one
5:57
Speaker 2: hundred percent at left tackle. They've had a couple of
5:59
Speaker 2: different injury He's on their offensive line. You know, we
6:02
Speaker 2: can sit here and talk about Shannan versus McDonald and
6:06
Speaker 2: genius versus genius, and one guy's gonna make adjustments and
6:09
Speaker 2: is the other guy going to be ready for it?
6:11
Speaker 2: But it's whether or not you got the horses or not,
6:14
Speaker 2: whether you've got the man power or not. We kind
6:16
Speaker 2: of stumbled into this topic yesterday as a joke the
6:19
Speaker 2: I've got a guy for that, But the more I
6:22
Speaker 2: think about it, Mike McDonald has that in his back pocket.
6:25
Speaker 2: I don't think Kyle Shanahan does. I got a guy
6:28
Speaker 2: for that. If there's a situation that pops up. All
6:31
Speaker 2: my dudes are healthy, all my dudes arrested, All of
6:36
Speaker 2: my dudes just stomped the crap out of you just
6:39
Speaker 2: two weeks ago, and are feeling pretty good about this matchup.
6:43
Speaker 2: I'm not predicting a blowout here, but I am predicting
6:47
Speaker 2: another convincing victory from the Seattle Seahawks against the San
6:51
Speaker 2: Francisco forty nine ers. I just think, and this is
6:55
Speaker 2: what Rado pointed out, at some point, you just got
6:58
Speaker 2: to look at whether or not you've got the man
7:00
Speaker 2: power to get the job done in this situation. So
7:03
Speaker 2: to me, it's not about trying to figure out x's
7:05
Speaker 2: and o's and who's going to gain the upper hand.
7:08
Speaker 2: Barring a horrible turnover day or a couple unlucky bounces,
7:13
Speaker 2: I don't see anything getting in the way of the
7:15
Speaker 2: Seahawks and posting a victory and doing it rather comfortably
7:19
Speaker 2: on Saturday. I feel as confident about this as I
7:22
Speaker 2: did about that Commander's prediction earlier this year, where it
7:26
Speaker 2: was the same situation. That's a pretty good team from
7:29
Speaker 2: a year ago, and they still have their high aspirations,
7:33
Speaker 2: but they're really banged up, and they're older than our team,
7:36
Speaker 2: and they're not as fast as our team, and we're
7:39
Speaker 2: coming off of a bye week and they're coming off
7:42
Speaker 2: of even more guys getting injured from the week before.
7:45
Speaker 2: And that, to me is the same sort of two
7:48
Speaker 2: trains arriving at the station at the same time. And
7:51
Speaker 2: I just feel like our train is just it does
7:54
Speaker 2: not need repairs right now, and at some point it
7:57
Speaker 2: really just comes down to the Jimmies and the Joe's
8:00
Speaker 2: and we've just got more healthy, good players than what
8:03
Speaker 2: the forty nine ers have going into Saturday. Period.
8:06
Speaker 5: Yeah, well, I mean, it's not hard to see how
8:09
Speaker 5: you get there. And I mean I the longer the
8:11
Speaker 5: season goes and even last week they don't play, and
8:14
Speaker 5: yet you know, a couple teams are ejected, and now
8:16
Speaker 5: you find yourself right here on the doorstep of them
8:19
Speaker 5: playing their first playoff game, and you realize you're two
8:22
Speaker 5: victories away from making it to the super Bowl. Really,
8:24
Speaker 5: you know, three victories from Hoiston Super Bowl Trophy. And
8:27
Speaker 5: I'm looking around and while it still feels like there's
8:31
Speaker 5: a little bit of a you know, kind of throw
8:33
Speaker 5: a dart, any one of these teams could win just
8:36
Speaker 5: because of the way in which this entire season has gone.
8:39
Speaker 4: I right now am probably.
8:41
Speaker 5: Would if you said you put a gun to my
8:43
Speaker 5: head and said I have to pick who is going
8:44
Speaker 5: to win the Super Bowl. I think it's the Seahawks.
8:47
Speaker 5: I think the Seahawks are probably the best team out there.
8:49
Speaker 5: Now you put that against the other teams that are
8:52
Speaker 5: still left, and first and foremost, it's a San Francisco
8:55
Speaker 5: forty nine ers, because that's who you have to go against.
8:57
Speaker 5: That's the team that I probably think has the least
8:59
Speaker 5: chance because of all the things you just said. It's
9:01
Speaker 5: not that they're not a good team. It's not that
9:03
Speaker 5: they're not well coached, it's not that they don't have
9:05
Speaker 5: a chance, they're just very injured and like a lot
9:08
Speaker 5: of things have to go their way and they have
9:11
Speaker 5: to probably get a couple of breaks here and there,
9:12
Speaker 5: or they have to have a team that which stumbles. Yeah,
9:17
Speaker 5: it's stumbles, like like the we watch the Eagles all
9:20
Speaker 5: season long. That's a talented team and yet they at
9:23
Speaker 5: times just don't play up to their capabilities. And then
9:26
Speaker 5: they let basically the Niners back into it. And the
9:29
Speaker 5: Niners are good enough, and they're resilient enough, and they
9:31
Speaker 5: have enough guys that are still available to play that
9:35
Speaker 5: they can go out and get They can go out
9:37
Speaker 5: and get it done. They can go out and beat
9:39
Speaker 5: you if you allow them.
9:40
Speaker 4: But I just don't.
9:41
Speaker 5: I feel like Mike McDonald has this Seahawks team poised
9:44
Speaker 5: and ready to take on all comers, especially division fos,
9:49
Speaker 5: where you know their personnel, you know what they're going
9:51
Speaker 5: to try to do, and it's just like, all right,
9:53
Speaker 5: you go in and before you know that first kickoff,
9:56
Speaker 5: are we ready? Are we ready for whatever they're going
9:58
Speaker 5: to throw at us? I think that he's feeling super confident.
10:01
Speaker 5: I think that that trickles down to the players, and
10:03
Speaker 5: San Francisco is going to try to muster as much
10:05
Speaker 5: fight as they possibly can, no doubt. But it's like
10:08
Speaker 5: you look across the battlefield, right if you're both standing
10:10
Speaker 5: on hills and you're getting ready to charge down into
10:12
Speaker 5: a valley and go man to man monoy mono and
10:16
Speaker 5: see who wins. It doesn't even It looks like the
10:18
Speaker 5: Seahawks would just have the entire mountain side cover and
10:21
Speaker 5: they'd look over and it'd be like, well they got there.
10:25
Speaker 2: The pipe and drum corps, and you're the you're the
10:28
Speaker 2: English arm.
10:29
Speaker 4: Yeah, it just doesn't. It feels like that.
10:31
Speaker 5: And yet I would be hard pressed to think that
10:34
Speaker 5: if this is anything other than still somewhat of a
10:37
Speaker 5: close game. Because it's a division foe, it doesn't matter.
10:40
Speaker 5: I mean last season when there was it, last year
10:44
Speaker 5: when the Niners fell off, was it last year? Yeah,
10:47
Speaker 5: they still played them tough, right, I mean, even when
10:49
Speaker 5: they're having bad seasons, they play them tough. If the
10:51
Speaker 5: Seahawks are having bad seasons, they played the Niner stuff
10:53
Speaker 5: division fos. Those games get weird, and then you had
10:56
Speaker 5: the playoffs too, it's it's.
10:57
Speaker 4: Even more weird.
10:58
Speaker 2: I don't I would say, I don't.
11:00
Speaker 1: I think it's going to be a close game, I don't,
11:02
Speaker 1: like you said, though not a blowout. I think it's
11:03
Speaker 1: going to be a dominant performance similar to what we
11:05
Speaker 1: saw last time, even though it.
11:07
Speaker 2: Only won by ten. Yeah, felt like we won by forty.
11:09
Speaker 1: Felt like forty because it felt like they never stood
11:12
Speaker 1: a chance. And so that's how I picture this game
11:15
Speaker 1: going again, probably, you know, I again, not in the
11:18
Speaker 1: exact same way that that one played out, but with
11:20
Speaker 1: this defense and the way that Mike McDonald has them operating,
11:23
Speaker 1: I just don't see San Francisco in their current state
11:29
Speaker 1: being able to overcome.
11:30
Speaker 2: It doesn't mean they won't, no, you know. And look,
11:33
Speaker 2: I mean I'm not silly about this. I mean, I
11:36
Speaker 2: realize there's a world out there where breaks fall one way,
11:40
Speaker 2: or you know, a certain play or an injury happens
11:43
Speaker 2: during the course of the game, god forbid, that changes
11:46
Speaker 2: the entire scope of it all. I mean, I get that.
11:49
Speaker 2: I mean, I think Miami's going to get hammered by
11:51
Speaker 2: Indiana on Monday night as well. Is there a world
11:55
Speaker 2: out there where that, of course there is. I mean,
11:57
Speaker 2: this is sports sport. It's gonna be crazy and so
12:00
Speaker 2: certainly unpredictable. If it was predictable, it wouldn't be as fun,
12:03
Speaker 2: but so I certainly can entertain an evening that leads
12:09
Speaker 2: to massive disappointment for myself, for Seahawk fans, for the
12:12
Speaker 2: sea Hawks roster, everybody else. I could stand to look
12:16
Speaker 2: silly for making this statement, but just as I see
12:20
Speaker 2: it on paper, I mean, Mike McDonald versus Kyle Shanahan.
12:27
Speaker 2: There are times that a game is played where, yeah,
12:31
Speaker 2: there's one team better than the other and the other
12:33
Speaker 2: team just has a better game plan and they pull
12:35
Speaker 2: off the victory. Mike McDonald might not out coach Kyle
12:39
Speaker 2: Shanahan again on Saturday, but I don't think Shanahan's gonna
12:43
Speaker 2: out coach him so much that it's gonna make up
12:45
Speaker 2: for the lack of healthy players that they have on
12:48
Speaker 2: their roster. I don't think that the Seahawks are susceptible
12:52
Speaker 2: from that standpoint, and I don't think they're gonna be
12:54
Speaker 2: again for a really long time. Are gonna be susceptible
12:57
Speaker 2: to having the better players but they're coach blows it
13:01
Speaker 2: with his game plan. I just you know, maybe Shannan
13:04
Speaker 2: comes up with a great game plan at some point,
13:06
Speaker 2: though it's just a matter of whether or not you've
13:09
Speaker 2: got a guy to cover that situation. The Seahawks are
13:12
Speaker 2: coming off the buy, they are as healthy as any
13:16
Speaker 2: playoff team we've ever seen, and they also, oh, by
13:21
Speaker 2: the way, we're the better team during the regular season
13:24
Speaker 2: as well. So I don't know, I might be setting
13:27
Speaker 2: myself up for a fall. Hugh Millan might tell me
13:29
Speaker 2: at eight o'clock today, Oh, that's just nonsense. Mike Holmgren, say,
13:33
Speaker 2: don't ever say that. You know, fans right now might
13:36
Speaker 2: be saying, weren't you two and five this week and
13:39
Speaker 2: picking straight up winners in the playoffs? Don't even take us.
13:42
Speaker 2: I don't know, but that's just how I feel. I
13:45
Speaker 2: think it could end up being within ten. But I
13:49
Speaker 2: just I feel like it's a rinse and repeat of
13:52
Speaker 2: two weeks ago. I think we're gonna hammer them. I
13:54
Speaker 2: just do. That's just where I'm at right now.
13:57
Speaker 5: Well, it's understandable. It's not even hard. I mean, we're not.
14:00
Speaker 5: I'm not at the same level of confidence, and I
14:02
Speaker 5: don't know that. I don't know if I will get there.
14:05
Speaker 5: But I think that's just the apprehension that comes with
14:09
Speaker 5: my brain, just the way in which I am. It's
14:11
Speaker 5: like I'm about I recognize everything you're saying, and I agree.
14:15
Speaker 5: It's like everything you're saying like I don't. The most
14:19
Speaker 5: recent game didn't look like much of a contest, even
14:23
Speaker 5: though the final score wound up being a contest.
14:25
Speaker 2: Shows you how weird the sport is. But Christian McCaffrey
14:28
Speaker 2: catches that ball and they get into the maybe they
14:30
Speaker 2: end up pulling that out. Imagine the hair pulling we
14:34
Speaker 2: would have been doing on that.
14:34
Speaker 4: Pne and yet you were dominant.
14:36
Speaker 5: And so to me, it's like all of that points
14:38
Speaker 5: in the direction of if I am wearing a Twelves
14:42
Speaker 5: jersey and I'm getting ready and getting nervous for the
14:44
Speaker 5: game on Saturday, I'm far less nervous than I would
14:49
Speaker 5: be if I was dawning that whatever the red and
14:51
Speaker 5: Gold that the Niners were. I mean, I justus I
14:54
Speaker 5: would be if I'm them, I'm like, oh my gosh,
14:57
Speaker 5: really are the Seahawks and that hated fan base that
15:01
Speaker 5: you know the right is that who's going to end
15:03
Speaker 5: our season? We've had all of this, We've shown all
15:06
Speaker 5: this toughness and grit resiliency, and yet they snipered Us
15:10
Speaker 5: when the number one seed was on the line, and
15:13
Speaker 5: the division championship was on the line.
15:16
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, and yet.
15:20
Speaker 5: They they you know, and then we've we rebounded when
15:23
Speaker 5: most people thought, oh, after that emotional defeat, there's no
15:26
Speaker 5: chance you'll beat the defending champs, and we showed them that.
15:29
Speaker 5: And then are they gonna come and just smack us
15:31
Speaker 5: down again and send us to can kun ye? I
15:33
Speaker 5: mean it's everything points in the direction of yes. It
15:37
Speaker 5: just to me feels like because there is two great
15:40
Speaker 5: coaches going at it, that you are in a chess
15:43
Speaker 5: match where it's everything, there's so much relying on every
15:46
Speaker 5: single play, and it's there. I'm not I don't think
15:49
Speaker 5: it has to be just bad bounces or just uh.
15:53
Speaker 5: I mean, you can't probably get away with a crazy
15:55
Speaker 5: turnover game.
15:56
Speaker 4: I think it just comes down to if both teams
15:59
Speaker 4: go out.
15:59
Speaker 5: And say, let's just be ourselves, well theirselves right now,
16:02
Speaker 5: they don't match up. If both teams play their A game,
16:05
Speaker 5: not A plus, they play an A game. Seahawks play
16:08
Speaker 5: an A game, the Seahawks win probably by ten thirteen points.
16:12
Speaker 5: If the Seahawks play a B minus game and they
16:14
Speaker 5: play an A game, I think they could lose, and
16:16
Speaker 5: so to me, it's and I don't know what it
16:18
Speaker 5: takes to go from an A to a B minus,
16:21
Speaker 5: but I know that it's something that is that's capable
16:23
Speaker 5: of where it's a batted pass that we see it
16:27
Speaker 5: missus a d lineman's finger by an inch. Instead it
16:30
Speaker 5: catches two of a stringers pops up and it's interception.
16:32
Speaker 4: I mean, we're talking about that.
16:33
Speaker 5: That's the beauty of the game to me is how
16:36
Speaker 5: many little tiny things happen in all the little games
16:40
Speaker 5: and in every single game, and how many times a
16:42
Speaker 5: victory or defeat lies on all those.
16:45
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I can't predict you're you're absolutely right. And
16:48
Speaker 2: I can't predict if there's going to be a deflection
16:50
Speaker 2: at the line of scrimmage that lands in you know,
16:54
Speaker 2: Lenore's hands and he goes for a pick six. I
16:57
Speaker 2: can't predict that. All I can predict is what I see,
17:00
Speaker 2: and what I see is I think the Seahawks just
17:03
Speaker 2: have a significant advantage here. And so not to mention
17:06
Speaker 2: home field advantage, yeah, not to mention rest and everything else,
17:11
Speaker 2: all the other things that go into trying to forecast
17:15
Speaker 2: these games. But we'll see. I'm just you know, I'm
17:18
Speaker 2: just throwing out. I mean, we've been talking about this
17:20
Speaker 2: now for two weeks. Yeah yeah, now that we're here,
17:24
Speaker 2: I don't need tomorrow. I don't need any more evaluation.
17:26
Speaker 2: I don't need to hear from I mean, I want
17:28
Speaker 2: to hear from Greg and Hugh, but I don't need
17:30
Speaker 2: to hear from them to try to piece together my prediction.
17:34
Speaker 2: I think we're winning by at least ten on Saturday Night.
17:37
Speaker 2: I like it. All right, let's find out what's on
17:39
Speaker 2: tap for the rest of the show.
17:42
Speaker 4: What's on to what's on? All right?
17:46
Speaker 2: Forty nine ers at Seahawks five o'clock Saturday night, twelve
17:50
Speaker 2: man roundtable today from eight to nine. Hugh and Greg
17:53
Speaker 2: will of course break it down for you right here
17:57
Speaker 2: on Chuck and Buck in the morning. The NFL Divisional
17:59
Speaker 2: Round starts Sadday afternoon. Buffalo at Denver terrific. Game terrific.
18:04
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know what it is about games
18:06
Speaker 2: at Denver during the day. They just look prettier than
18:09
Speaker 2: everywhere else, like sunshinier. Yeah, I don't know what it is.
18:13
Speaker 4: It's closer to God.
18:13
Speaker 2: Oh, okay, that's what it was. I remember you telling
18:16
Speaker 2: me that yesterday. Houston at New England on Sunday rams
18:20
Speaker 2: at Chicago Sunday evening or afternoon in our case, Mike
18:24
Speaker 2: Sando will be joining us today at nine thirty our
18:27
Speaker 2: NFL insider to discuss it. John Harbaugh did not wait long.
18:31
Speaker 2: This is a classic case of don't let your guy
18:35
Speaker 2: out of the building. The Giants apparently overwhelmed him with
18:40
Speaker 2: their offer and I think probably some aspects of control
18:45
Speaker 2: that we haven't heard about. Adam Schefter was reporting it's
18:48
Speaker 2: an agreed upon deal, it's not a sign deal. There's
18:51
Speaker 2: some other things that have to be worked out. We'll
18:54
Speaker 2: talk about it with the Sharcoachery Board coming up at
18:57
Speaker 2: six forty five this morning. My guess is that John
19:01
Speaker 2: Harball is like, I'm not going to use the general
19:04
Speaker 2: manager that everyone in this city hates. So my guess
19:08
Speaker 2: is that there's a little bit of things to work about,
19:11
Speaker 2: work all out with Joe Shane. But I'm hearing like
19:16
Speaker 2: the highest paid head coach in the National Football League
19:19
Speaker 2: is Andy Reid at twenty million per year. I'm hearing
19:22
Speaker 2: they offered thirty Wow.
19:24
Speaker 1: Wow.
19:25
Speaker 2: I'm hearing that they offered him thirty million dollars. And
19:28
Speaker 2: you know what, I've been saying this for years. It
19:30
Speaker 2: makes sense. I mean, what do we always talk about.
19:32
Speaker 2: You gotta get the coach and the quarterback. That's what
19:34
Speaker 2: you gotta do. You gotta get the right coach in
19:36
Speaker 2: the right quarterback, and that sets you on sale. For
19:38
Speaker 2: championship football. Quarterbacks make sixty million a year. Why are
19:43
Speaker 2: coaches making third a third of that? Kind of makes
19:47
Speaker 2: sense to me. If you've got the guy you think
19:50
Speaker 2: takes you there, give him some money that's not.
19:52
Speaker 4: Capped, right, Yeah, I know it's not capped.
19:54
Speaker 5: I mean this guy's resume, it's I think that he
19:57
Speaker 5: you know, before Tomlin jumps in and they're probably two,
20:00
Speaker 5: he's in a pod. I kind of feel like they're
20:02
Speaker 5: very similar, coaching the same division coach for about the
20:04
Speaker 5: same time, had both won a Super.
20:06
Speaker 2: Bowl, genius like on one side.
20:09
Speaker 5: Of the leaders of men though, I mean culture builders.
20:12
Speaker 5: I think that they both are kind of thrown into
20:15
Speaker 5: that mix. He was he was the first one available.
20:18
Speaker 5: You heard that New York was gonna go after him.
20:19
Speaker 5: They've had success with this before of hiring a veteran coach,
20:23
Speaker 5: somebody that has a track record. I mean, if you
20:25
Speaker 5: want to get your guy, if you think that's the
20:28
Speaker 5: guy that changes where you've been as of late, then
20:31
Speaker 5: you offer him whatever because you're right. It doesn't know,
20:33
Speaker 5: get your cap, get to your guy. They didn't let
20:35
Speaker 5: him leave the building.
20:36
Speaker 2: He canceled the meeting apparently today with Tennessee and one
20:40
Speaker 2: tomorrow with Atlanta. The Giants knew that was gonna happen,
20:44
Speaker 2: and they were just like, nope, we're gonna make you decide, right,
20:47
Speaker 2: We're gonna make you an offer you can't refuse. He couldn't,
20:50
Speaker 2: and he couldn't. Dante Moore stays that Oregon. We'll talk
20:53
Speaker 2: more about that coming up at six thirty. That's a
20:55
Speaker 2: very interesting story. College football were four days from the
20:58
Speaker 2: National championship game between Miami and Indiana College basketball last night.
21:04
Speaker 2: Oh boy, the place was rocking on Montlake as Michigan
21:08
Speaker 2: does defeat you dub eighty two to seventy two's the
21:11
Speaker 2: final score. Spencer O was going to join us today.
21:14
Speaker 2: We'll talk a little bit about this at seven oh five,
21:16
Speaker 2: but we'll also talk about his Seahawks fandom because it
21:19
Speaker 2: runs wild as well. So we'll bring another celebrity on
21:24
Speaker 2: local celebrity on to talk to Seahawks football and to
21:28
Speaker 2: certainly talk about his expertise as well, which is hoops
21:33
Speaker 2: and Michigan got the win last night, you dub hung
21:35
Speaker 2: in there if they would have made their threes in
21:37
Speaker 2: the first half, because they had looks. They couldn't make
21:40
Speaker 2: a three to save themselves last night, and ultimately they
21:44
Speaker 2: couldn't pull off the upset Devil's three two winners over
21:48
Speaker 2: the Cracking last night. So then cracking back to having
21:51
Speaker 2: lost three out of four. Here they'll be at Boston tonight,
21:55
Speaker 2: so back to backs on the road. They'll take on
21:58
Speaker 2: the Bruins. Puck drops at five and in hot Stove
22:02
Speaker 2: Rangers swore As agreed to a deal with the Boston
22:04
Speaker 2: Red Sox. We'll play a little bit of follow the
22:06
Speaker 2: Bouncing ball later on in the show at seven forty five,
22:09
Speaker 2: because I think it might lead us toward what the
22:13
Speaker 2: Mariners might do next. Also, Gabe Speier has been named
22:17
Speaker 2: to Team USA by Mark de Rosa, so we'll have
22:20
Speaker 2: at least two Mariners on that team. The other guy
22:24
Speaker 2: is joining us today, uh cal Raley will be with
22:28
Speaker 2: us today at nine o'clock on the promise we're gonna
22:31
Speaker 2: talk a lot of football with a huge football fan
22:34
Speaker 2: Cayl Raley, the Dumper, loves himself some football, but we're also,
22:38
Speaker 2: of course check in on his baseball life and make
22:41
Speaker 2: sure that he's not weighing like three point fifty. He
22:43
Speaker 2: just decided I almost won the MVP. I'm just gonna gorgeous,
22:47
Speaker 2: gonna celebrate this. Yeah, donuts, Yeah, just well, donuts all
22:53
Speaker 2: three meals.
22:55
Speaker 5: Yeah, bags, just sixty bombs again and you do that
22:59
Speaker 5: with a big dumb brun.
23:00
Speaker 2: Fine, he'll join us at nine o'clock. We couldn't be
23:03
Speaker 2: more excited about that. Coming up next though, we'll talk
23:06
Speaker 2: about that Dante More story, because man, it is fascinating.
23:10
Speaker 2: Sports Radio ninety three point three kha RFM twelve Man
23:14
Speaker 2: round Table is going to be here on Thursday. They've
23:16
Speaker 2: shown up every Thursday from eight to nine all season long.
23:18
Speaker 2: I don't know why they would just, you know, tap
23:21
Speaker 2: out when you get to the playoffs, for goodness sake.
23:24
Speaker 2: But from our year, Hugh and Greg, they are just
23:26
Speaker 2: chewing through their restraints. They cannot wait to get on
23:29
Speaker 2: the airwaves today at eight o'clock to talk about this game,
23:32
Speaker 2: and we can't wait to listen to them talk about
23:35
Speaker 2: this game. So that's coming up, plus Spencer Owz at
23:38
Speaker 2: seven oh five and Cal Rally at nine. We will
23:41
Speaker 2: talk about their specialties for sure, Cal's baseball career that
23:45
Speaker 2: seems to be going okay and Spencer's basketball knowledge which
23:49
Speaker 2: seems to be vast, But we also want to talk
23:53
Speaker 2: to Seahawks football with him. That's one of the reasons
23:55
Speaker 2: they're excited to coming on the other The other part
23:58
Speaker 2: of the other reason they're excited is because they just
24:00
Speaker 2: can't get enough of Ashley and Bucky.
24:02
Speaker 1: Yeah, they really do.
24:04
Speaker 2: So Cal at nine and Spencer Oss at seven o
24:07
Speaker 2: five Today, we got a great lineup for you, and
24:09
Speaker 2: we also have some great juicy topics to discuss as well,
24:13
Speaker 2: including this Dante More story. You know, I think it's
24:17
Speaker 2: a natural reaction to think when Dylan Rayola enters the
24:20
Speaker 2: transfer portal and comes out on the other side in
24:23
Speaker 2: Eugene that the former five star quarterback who tries to
24:28
Speaker 2: dress act and look like Patrick mahomes creepy. Yeah, it's
24:32
Speaker 2: pretty creepy that he comes out the other side in
24:35
Speaker 2: Eugene that he's got intel suggesting that that starting job
24:40
Speaker 2: is opening. So I don't think it's that crazy to
24:43
Speaker 2: just make the leap, Oh, Dante more must be going pro.
24:46
Speaker 2: Dante More goes on one of the networks yesterday to
24:50
Speaker 2: announce his intentions, and I think most people thought that
24:54
Speaker 2: he was going to say I am entering the NFL draft,
24:57
Speaker 2: and instead, Bucky he says, is there any doubt I'm
25:01
Speaker 2: going back to Oregon for my junior season? So I
25:06
Speaker 2: thought I was actually rather shocked by it, and actually
25:10
Speaker 2: rather impressed by the young man. This is a this
25:13
Speaker 2: is a good day for college football, obviously a good
25:16
Speaker 2: day for Oregon. Maybe not so much for you, dub
25:18
Speaker 2: uh And and the entire NIL process. Frankly, I mean,
25:24
Speaker 2: you don't get this before NIL and they're going for
25:28
Speaker 2: the money if you might be the number two pick
25:30
Speaker 2: in the NFL draft. But here's Dante Moore saying, I
25:34
Speaker 2: make good money playing college football and I need more
25:38
Speaker 2: time to develop and I have unfinished business to do
25:42
Speaker 2: at Oregon. Of course I'm going back to school. That
25:46
Speaker 2: was that was crazy?
25:47
Speaker 5: It is, Well, it's a I think it's a mature decision,
25:51
Speaker 5: which I think a lot of times. Yeah, the NIL
25:53
Speaker 5: definitely plays a role in it. I mean, if you
25:56
Speaker 5: get the opportunity to be first or second pick, over
26:00
Speaker 5: all in the draft, and you there wasn't nil money
26:03
Speaker 5: waiting for you back at a college, you would be
26:06
Speaker 5: kind of silly to not take it because of the
26:08
Speaker 5: idea of there's injuries, and I was injuries anywhere. He
26:10
Speaker 5: could get injured next year in college, but he could
26:12
Speaker 5: get injured next year in the pros. As matter of fact,
26:15
Speaker 5: you go play for the Jets or the Raiders, a
26:16
Speaker 5: really good chance you're going to get injured. So I
26:19
Speaker 5: mean to me, the idea of NIL playing a factor
26:22
Speaker 5: in it most certainly is part of the deal.
26:24
Speaker 4: So that's good.
26:25
Speaker 5: But on the flip side of it, I'm thinking that
26:29
Speaker 5: it's hopefully it's I still need some more seasoning. Yeah,
26:32
Speaker 5: I mean as a quarterback, if you're not watching the
26:34
Speaker 5: guys in the NFL that enter the NFL and those
26:36
Speaker 5: that have more success quick in in a hurry having
26:39
Speaker 5: a little bit more seasoning at the collegiate level, then
26:42
Speaker 5: I don't know what you're looking at, right. I mean,
26:44
Speaker 5: I understand the hurry to get to the highest level,
26:47
Speaker 5: get to the pros. I mean, it's been a dream
26:49
Speaker 5: of yours.
26:49
Speaker 4: So when all of a.
26:50
Speaker 5: Sudden it's right there, if the door is right there,
26:52
Speaker 5: you just have to reach out and turn the knob,
26:54
Speaker 5: and you're in the NFL.
26:56
Speaker 4: It'd be hard to turn that pass that up.
26:58
Speaker 5: But nowadays, when you can make some money and you
27:00
Speaker 5: also are like, well, it would be really nice to
27:04
Speaker 5: be able to feel better. I mean, maybe not coming
27:06
Speaker 5: off of a loss like that. Not to say that
27:08
Speaker 5: you're going to come off a win. There's only one
27:10
Speaker 5: team that wins the final game of the season that
27:13
Speaker 5: matters anyways, and so it's not to say that, but
27:15
Speaker 5: to get another bite at the apple, possibly go out
27:17
Speaker 5: there and try to do better in the playoffs, get
27:20
Speaker 5: into the playoffs.
27:21
Speaker 4: And do better next year.
27:22
Speaker 5: But even more so to where you just feel like, yeah,
27:25
Speaker 5: I'm ready the NFL because you weren't ready for You
27:28
Speaker 5: weren't ready for Indiana. I don't know if you're ready
27:31
Speaker 5: for whoever you face in the NFL, especially with a
27:34
Speaker 5: team that's going to have more of the deck stacked
27:37
Speaker 5: against it, whoever you would have got drafted by early
27:39
Speaker 5: in the draft.
27:39
Speaker 1: I agree, yeah, And it is interesting to see that
27:43
Speaker 1: opportunity present itself because they're getting paid because they don't think, well,
27:46
Speaker 1: that was yeah, that was my only shot, or you know,
27:49
Speaker 1: I've got to I got to get my money while
27:51
Speaker 1: I can. I mean, he is getting his money while
27:53
Speaker 1: he can, and hopefully for him improving his draft stock even.
27:57
Speaker 2: More, probably nearly as much. Now that rookie quarterbacks make
28:01
Speaker 2: less since Sam Bradford, and now that since nil. Obviously
28:05
Speaker 2: college quarterbacks are making millions of dollars per year. Maybe
28:09
Speaker 2: it's just a couple. I don't know what Dante makes.
28:11
Speaker 2: He might make up to four. I have no idea,
28:14
Speaker 2: but that GAP's not that great. I mean for you
28:16
Speaker 2: to be able to sit back and this is as
28:19
Speaker 2: much as we wring our hands over Nil, this is
28:21
Speaker 2: one of the beautiful things that's going to help the
28:23
Speaker 2: college game. You have the opportunity to say, I don't
28:27
Speaker 2: want to play for the Jets. I'm making money. I
28:30
Speaker 2: need more development. Do I want to get it at
28:34
Speaker 2: the college level in a system that I trust, where
28:37
Speaker 2: I have a year to really impress people. Or do
28:40
Speaker 2: I want to do I want to risk going to
28:43
Speaker 2: a team that's not any good and then I have
28:45
Speaker 2: to learn on the job while getting my brains beat in.
28:49
Speaker 2: I mean, is that how I want to spend the
28:51
Speaker 2: next year. So I think we'll see more of this
28:53
Speaker 2: going forward, and I think that it's a great to say.
28:58
Speaker 2: I mean, it's certainly not for you, Dub, but it's
29:00
Speaker 2: a I think it's a great decision for him. I
29:03
Speaker 2: think it's a great decision for Oregon. I don't know
29:06
Speaker 2: what it does to the decision for Dylan Reyola. I
29:09
Speaker 2: don't know if we'll find out in the next forty
29:10
Speaker 2: eight hours that he's going to transfer back out, But
29:15
Speaker 2: apparently the story is that he's willing to perfectly willing
29:18
Speaker 2: to sit for a year behind him, which I get
29:21
Speaker 2: it when you're a freshman or sophomore, but this is
29:23
Speaker 2: his junior season. Yeah, I don't I don't get it.
29:25
Speaker 2: Are you going to just red shirt while you sit
29:28
Speaker 2: behind him? I mean that means if he gets injured,
29:31
Speaker 2: you don't come into a game, right So I'm not
29:34
Speaker 2: sure why he didn't kind of flush that out a
29:37
Speaker 2: little better, because Dante Moore seemed like he was really
29:40
Speaker 2: like adamant, like there was never a doubt that I
29:43
Speaker 2: was going to go back. And I would just say
29:46
Speaker 2: the comparison right now, and I hate to do this
29:49
Speaker 2: to Husky fans that are listening, but the comparison of
29:53
Speaker 2: how you feel about Dante Moore being your quarterback in Eugene,
29:56
Speaker 2: and how you feel about Demand Williams being your quarterback
29:59
Speaker 2: at you do one guy that could have been the
30:02
Speaker 2: second pick in the draft and said, no, there's no
30:04
Speaker 2: doubt I'm going back to Oregon versus another guy that
30:09
Speaker 2: I still don't believe that he wants to be here.
30:11
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's no convincing that he chose to do this
30:14
Speaker 1: because he wants to be a Husky arm didn't because
30:17
Speaker 1: he didn't want to have to pay the Huskies.
30:18
Speaker 2: I mean, if there's anything too, like, I play better
30:22
Speaker 2: at a place that I want to be at. Yeah,
30:26
Speaker 2: I mean what a stark contrast. I mean, Dante More
30:29
Speaker 2: could have been the second pick in the draft. I
30:30
Speaker 2: don't think he ultimately would have been, but there was
30:32
Speaker 2: a chance that he has been the second pick in
30:35
Speaker 2: the draft versus a guy that was given his money
30:39
Speaker 2: and still tried to get out of it, and then
30:41
Speaker 2: only when he realized he'd have to go out a
30:44
Speaker 2: court battle did he come back to Seattle. I mean,
30:47
Speaker 2: what a stark contrast between the quarterbacks in this rivalry.
30:51
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I'm not going to pile on it. I
30:53
Speaker 4: mean it is what it is. I mean the U
30:55
Speaker 4: dub has.
30:56
Speaker 5: There's some mending offenses that have to go on between
30:59
Speaker 5: Husky and Demond Williams. And like I've said, the whole
31:03
Speaker 5: time he goes out and throws a bunch of touchdowns
31:05
Speaker 5: and helps you win a bunch of games, most people
31:07
Speaker 5: will get over what he ended up doing. I still
31:09
Speaker 5: don't think he'll be here at the end of next
31:11
Speaker 5: season unless they go on a crazy run, you know,
31:13
Speaker 5: make it to the you know, National Championship game or something.
31:17
Speaker 5: But at that point, maybe then he's even trying to
31:19
Speaker 5: declare for the NFL Draft himself.
31:21
Speaker 2: Well he's gonna get He's going to get spend at
31:22
Speaker 2: least half the season getting mooed in his home field.
31:26
Speaker 4: Yeah.
31:26
Speaker 2: So I mean, if he can overcome that and he
31:28
Speaker 2: can say that was a great growing experience and I
31:31
Speaker 2: earned that, and then I turned them around and by
31:33
Speaker 2: the end of the year we were all on the
31:34
Speaker 2: same page.
31:35
Speaker 4: And what a year we have.
31:36
Speaker 2: I mean, there's a there's a path to turn it
31:39
Speaker 2: around and this ends up being a great story with
31:41
Speaker 2: Demond Williams Junior.
31:42
Speaker 4: But I mean, right now, I kind of doubt that.
31:45
Speaker 1: Yeah, I I what Bucky said, I don't think he'll
31:47
Speaker 1: be here next year. Yeah, I mean he'll be here
31:49
Speaker 1: this year, but yeah, after that he's gone.
31:51
Speaker 2: He's gonna live out his contract, so he doesn't get
31:53
Speaker 2: his pants suit on. Yeah, exact, that's how it feels.
31:55
Speaker 2: That is exactly how it feels right now. Meanwhile, Oregon's like, oh,
31:58
Speaker 2: we got a five our quarterback backing up our guy
32:04
Speaker 2: that chose us over the NFL for one more year.
32:08
Speaker 2: Cheese yes, start contrast. Yeah, I'd say, all right, coming
32:11
Speaker 2: up next, crack out your meat, get out your cheeses, pickle,
32:16
Speaker 2: anything you can get your hands on. The sharcouchery board
32:20
Speaker 2: is being served up and there is a main dish
32:23
Speaker 2: called John Harball right in the middle of the platter.
32:27
Speaker 2: Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM right here on
32:30
Speaker 2: Chuck and Buck in the morning, Spencer Owz at seven
32:33
Speaker 2: o five col Raleigh today at nine o'clock. That's right,
32:36
Speaker 2: the Big Dumper himself. Also twelfth Man Roundtable coming away
32:40
Speaker 2: from eight to nine. SHARCCHERI, shark COACHERI has everything to
32:44
Speaker 2: do with one thing. We have one ingredient on it,
32:46
Speaker 2: just salami, you know, just I know you're supposed to
32:49
Speaker 2: have cheese and sounds delicious. Pickles and you know, little
32:52
Speaker 2: bread knots and everything else. But this one's just got
32:55
Speaker 2: John Harball slices on it. John Harball. Late last night,
32:59
Speaker 2: it sounds like he he reached an agreement with the
33:01
Speaker 2: New York Giants. They have not put pen to paper.
33:06
Speaker 2: It sounds like they have not finalized things at this point.
33:10
Speaker 2: But Adam Schefter usually doesn't missfire on things this big.
33:14
Speaker 2: He says the deal has been agreed upon. He was
33:17
Speaker 2: supposed to meet with the Titans. I guess he's canceled
33:19
Speaker 2: that today. He was supposed to meet with the Falcons tomorrow.
33:22
Speaker 2: I guess he's canceled that. So it looks like this
33:25
Speaker 2: as a classic case. And you always hear about this
33:28
Speaker 2: classic case of the Giants wouldn't let him leave the building.
33:32
Speaker 2: They made him such an offer that he just took it.
33:36
Speaker 2: I think he was already interested, but whatever the Giants
33:39
Speaker 2: whispered in his ear obviously was effective. And on top
33:44
Speaker 2: of it, I'm hearing that he has shattered the high
33:47
Speaker 2: water mark for how much a coach has gotten paid.
33:51
Speaker 2: Andy Reid right now is the ice paid coach in
33:53
Speaker 2: the National Football League, making twenty million a year, I'm
33:56
Speaker 2: hearing Harball was offered thirty million dollars a year, probably
34:00
Speaker 2: signed before leaving the building too.
34:02
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I definitely wouldn't scoff at I mean I wouldn't.
34:06
Speaker 5: I wouldn't be disappointed at it, regardless of well, I
34:09
Speaker 5: got some other meetings to take, but in back in
34:11
Speaker 5: my head, like, I'm not gonna probably pass up thirty million.
34:14
Speaker 5: I mean, he's the probably the crown jewel of those
34:17
Speaker 5: that are out there. I mean, with what he did
34:20
Speaker 5: for a long time in Baltimore and then so a
34:23
Speaker 5: lot of times it's it's coaches interviewing with the head
34:27
Speaker 5: with with organizations, right, and it's you're trying to prove
34:31
Speaker 5: to them what you could do or show them what
34:33
Speaker 5: you're capable of. This is one where it's definitely mutual,
34:37
Speaker 5: if not the other way where it's the it's the
34:40
Speaker 5: it's Harbaugh is going, Okay, so what do you guys got?
34:44
Speaker 5: And I mean the Giants are historically a team that
34:47
Speaker 5: puts everything that they can into the product. They try
34:50
Speaker 5: their best to put it into it. And and so yeah,
34:53
Speaker 5: they want to return back to the form they had
34:55
Speaker 5: back when Eli was there, which wasn't that long ago,
34:57
Speaker 5: but it feels like forever. I'm sure if you're in
34:59
Speaker 5: New York Giants fan and they feel that John Harbaugh
35:02
Speaker 5: is the guy that can take them there, I.
35:03
Speaker 2: Mean, think about the guys that they've taken chances on.
35:06
Speaker 2: These are the last few coaches. Mike Kafka was interim
35:09
Speaker 2: Brian Dayball, I mean, that was a coordinator and turns
35:14
Speaker 2: out just a red ass head coach. That's a lot
35:17
Speaker 2: of the players ended up not liking Joe Judge, who
35:21
Speaker 2: right now is the quarterback coach for Indiana. I think,
35:25
Speaker 2: isn't it one of the final four teams. He's the
35:27
Speaker 2: quarterback coach. He's not even an offensive coordinator or anything
35:31
Speaker 2: like that. Pat Shermer another coordinator. Steve Spagnola another coordinator,
35:37
Speaker 2: although an excellent one. Ben McAdoo. I mean, you got
35:40
Speaker 2: to go all the way back to Tom Coughlin. That's
35:41
Speaker 2: like six in a row where they just were like,
35:44
Speaker 2: can we find the next big thing or somebody within
35:47
Speaker 2: our system who did a decent job in the interim,
35:51
Speaker 2: and we'll just promote them. I mean, that doesn't feel
35:54
Speaker 2: very Giants like, that doesn't feel very big, and they
35:57
Speaker 2: are a broken organization. They're a mess right now. And
36:01
Speaker 2: so finally the Marrap family gets around to we got
36:06
Speaker 2: to leave no doubt, We got to find we got
36:08
Speaker 2: to hire somebody that leaves no doubt that he knows
36:12
Speaker 2: how to build a program in the modern day. And
36:15
Speaker 2: I think John Harball becoming available was just, you know,
36:19
Speaker 2: music to their ears. And I don't blame them from
36:22
Speaker 2: not letting them go. And frankly, I don't blame them
36:24
Speaker 2: for the salary. I said this to start the show.
36:27
Speaker 2: I mean, you don't have a cap on coaching salaries,
36:30
Speaker 2: and everybody says the key to success is finding your
36:33
Speaker 2: quarterback and finding your head coach. Quarterbacks make sixty sixty
36:37
Speaker 2: five million dollars a year and coaches make fifteen to twenty,
36:42
Speaker 2: ten to twenty. I mean, why shouldn't John Harball make
36:47
Speaker 2: thirty million dollars a year? If the New York Giants
36:49
Speaker 2: want to make sure that they've got a proven winner,
36:52
Speaker 2: I think I don't blame them at all for jumping
36:54
Speaker 2: the salary.
36:55
Speaker 4: Up that much, but me either.
36:56
Speaker 5: I mean, if you're gonna right now, you just look
36:58
Speaker 5: at their division, right, I mean, the defending champs and
37:01
Speaker 5: the Philadelphia Eagles, and yet they look like things are
37:04
Speaker 5: kind of askew. The Cowboys have been floundering, and you know,
37:08
Speaker 5: the Commanders maybe get a pass with the injury to
37:11
Speaker 5: Ja Daniels this year, But it feels like a division
37:14
Speaker 5: where if the if Jackson Darton Molik neighbors, and if
37:19
Speaker 5: you know Cam Scataboy, if the young guys that they have,
37:22
Speaker 5: if you can get a coach that rounds out all
37:24
Speaker 5: up and gets a point in the right direction, which
37:26
Speaker 5: is what he did for nearly twenty years in Baltimore,
37:30
Speaker 5: it feels like the division is right there right Therefore
37:33
Speaker 5: the taking possibly you could jump right back into the
37:35
Speaker 5: mix of things.
37:36
Speaker 4: So yeah, jump up, pay the guy.
37:38
Speaker 5: I mean, it's not like you have to pay him
37:40
Speaker 5: twenty thirty million dollars to see if he knows how
37:44
Speaker 5: to coach an NFL team.
37:45
Speaker 4: He does.
37:46
Speaker 5: The resume speaks for itself, and you just if you
37:49
Speaker 5: believe in what he you know, what he has and
37:52
Speaker 5: what he brings to the table and what he still
37:53
Speaker 5: has as far as the fire and wanting to do
37:55
Speaker 5: it in a new organization, then go ahead and pay
37:58
Speaker 5: that man.
37:58
Speaker 2: Yeah he was they were smart to Yeah, and I'll
38:01
Speaker 2: bet you, I'll bet you the hang up, and this
38:04
Speaker 2: is hot take here. I bet you the hang up
38:06
Speaker 2: is Joe Shane. I mean, if you're gonna give him
38:08
Speaker 2: that much money, then you have to give him the
38:11
Speaker 2: type of control where he doesn't have to take on
38:15
Speaker 2: the general manager who publicly said Saquon Barkley has washed
38:19
Speaker 2: before he went to Philadelphia. The general manager that has helped,
38:23
Speaker 2: if not spearheaded, this disastrous last few years with the
38:28
Speaker 2: New York Giants. A general manager the entire fan base
38:31
Speaker 2: cannot stand. And I don't know what it is about
38:34
Speaker 2: him and his relationship with ownership, but they actually were
38:39
Speaker 2: going to keep him this offseason. If I'm John Harbaugh
38:41
Speaker 2: and I'm starting a new there's no way that I'm
38:44
Speaker 2: starting with a general manager that my fans hate. There's
38:46
Speaker 2: no chance wouldn't be smart that I'm doing that. So
38:49
Speaker 2: that might end up being the hang up. It might
38:52
Speaker 2: be why he hasn't signed the dotted line yet. So
38:55
Speaker 2: we'll see all right, Coming up next headlines plus the
38:58
Speaker 2: Spence Needle. Spencer is going to join us. We're a
39:01
Speaker 2: talk Seahawks football with Spencer and of course we'll get
