  Speaker 1: free wide receivers now in motion as Puppas left to right,
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: Julius Jones. A single setback Matt Pumpfecks looking at the
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: goal line, he throws it into the end zone. Touchdown,
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: Saint Hawks. It's Michael Bumpas with a diving catching the
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: end zone our ten yard touchdown reception for Puppas and
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: the kid out of Washington State has found himself a
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: place on this team. Powered by Seahawks dot Com. Bubble
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: to the Hawk Talk Preview edition, Week sixteen. The Hawks
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: are back home facing the Chicago Bears, trying to get
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: right and finished the season strong. Let's bring in Nasa Choby.
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: What's on tap? What's on tap? Those Chicago Bears are
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: on tap four in ten on the season, and they've
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: really struggled as of late. The Bears have lost eight
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: of their last nine games, losing to the Packers, Bucks,
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: forty nine, Ers, Steelers, Ravens, Cardinals, Packers, and Vikings. Their
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: only win in the last nine weeks was a sixteen
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: to fourteen victory over the Lions on Thanksgiving Day, and
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: the Bears have been dealing with uncertainty all season long,
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: whether it's their head coach or general manager, not to
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: mention their starting a rookie quarterback in Justin Fields and
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: so it's been a roller coaster for them all year long.
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: They had a higher expectations and they're living up too.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: But let's go back to Monday night. They played the Vikings,
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: and honestly, it was pretty much a microcosm of their season.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: They lose to the Vikings and it was brutal to start.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: Similar to the Seahawks. They went to the game down
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: fourteen players who were placed on the reserve COVID lists
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: among those not playing with star receiver Allen Robinson and
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: most of their starting secondary. Not to mention, they're also
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: missing their offensive coordinator and their special teams coordinator. The
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: defensive coordinator was cleared just before kickoff. But despite all that,
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: somehow the Bears still dominated in most of the offensive categories.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: They outgained the Vikings three hundred and seventy to one
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: ninety three. They had two hundred and fifty five passing
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: yards of Vikings had sixty one. They had thirteen first
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: downs of Vikings only had five. They ran seventy plays
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: of Vikings ran sixty one. Key difference, though, it was
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: turnovers in fourth downs. The Bears turn the ball over
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: three times and then we're two of five on fourth down,
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: which might as well be three more turnovers, might as
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: well call it six. They had nine penalties for ninety
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: one yards on the day, and rookie Justin fields he
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: was Okay, had a decent day statistically, going twenty six
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: for thirty nine for two hundred and eighty five yards
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: in one Teddy David Montgomery led all running backs eighteen
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: carries sixty yards, and Cole Commet at the tight end
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: had six catches for sixty one yards. On defense, the
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: Bears Helkirk Cousins to a horrible day twelve to twenty
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: four eighty seven yards, two touchdowns, one interception, but they
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: ended up losing seventeen to nine. So they're not a
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: great football team. Let's not pretend like they are. But
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: they do some things well bump what you see from
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: the head to head comparison. Not a great football team,
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: but we're in no position to judge right now. We
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: just gotta get wins at this point. The Hawks are
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: five and nineties. Guys are four and ten. When you
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: talk about the offense, the Hawks are the thirtieth ranked offense.
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: The Bears are twenty ninth, averaging three more yards than
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: the Seattle Seahawks. Rush offensive Hawks ring twenty third. They
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: are ranked eighth averaging one hundred and twenty five yards.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: Montgomery is a big reason for that pass offense. Hawks
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: ring twenty seventh average and twenty yards a game. They
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: are thirty second last in league one hundred and eighty
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: two yards. They got a rookie quarterback that contributes to that.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: Points per game the Hawks are twenty fourth. They are
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: twenty ninth with seventeen points per game. You go to
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: the defensive side. This is the strength of the team.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: The Hawks are thirty first. They are ninth only allowing
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: three hundred and twenty six yards per game. Against the run,
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: they are ranked twenty third one hundred and twenty Against
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: the past, they are ranked fourth, allowing two hundred and
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: five yards per game. And then points allowed, they are
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: twenty fourth averaging are allowing twenty four points per game.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: The Hawks are ring fourth, averaging twenty points per game.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: Look at the interception category. This is where we got him.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: Quandre Diggs has five interceptions, Bobby has one, Jamal Adams
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: has two. That equals eight. The Bears have six interceptions.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: On paper, this should be a tight game, but you
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: look at personnel and what they do. We feel confident
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: going into this game. But this is the NFL and
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: there is a history. Let's get to know it. No
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: your history. The Seahawks lead the all time series eleven
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: to seven. They're eleven and five in the regular season,
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: but oh and two record in the postseason. Last time
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: these two teams linked up, the Seahawks lost twenty four
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: to seventeen to the Bears on Monday Night Football back
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: in September of twenty eighteen, and if you guys remember,
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: it was a tough day for the Seahawks on offense.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: Russell Wilson went twenty two of thirty six for two
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: hundred and twenty six yards, two touchdowns, one interception, but
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: he was sacked six different times. A rookie back then,
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: Rashad Penny led all rushers for the Seahawks. Not a
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: great day. Ten carries for thirty yards. Tyler Lockett was
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: the only one who had anything really going in the
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: stat sheet, he had five receptions for sixty yards and
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: a touchdown. Defensively, sha Killed Griffin probably turned in his
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: best game as a Seahawk, four tackles, three passes defended,
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: two interceptions. Ultimately, the Seahawks could not overcome the pressure
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: from the Bears defense. That was the first home game
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: for cleil Mac after the trade and then turnovers. Trailing
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: seventeen to ten, with six thirty seven left in the
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: fourth quarter, Russell Wilson was intercepted by Prince of Mukamara
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: and he returned that by for a touchdown, pretty much
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: stealing in the game. Will distantly caught a two yard
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: touchdown in garbage time to make the score twenty four
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: seventeen much different time because in twenty eighteen, things were
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: looking good for the Bears, things were looking good for
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: coach Matt Naggie. They took them to the playoffs in
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: that first year, as I think Clayton Noy says, the
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: double doink when they missed the field goal and a
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: bounce off the upright and bounce back they lose to
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: the Eagles. So a lot of a lot has changed
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: for both teams since twenty eighteen. But let's get back
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: into the NFC West. What's the word? And the Seahawks
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: were the NFC West champs again, what's the word in
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: the West? On Hot Talk? What is the word in
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: the West? Bears on the Cardinals are tending for? The
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: Rams are tending for the forty nineties? Or eight and
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: six in the Seattle Seahawks are five in nine. Cardinals
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: played the Lions last week and the Cardinals have been
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: one of the best teams in the NFL this season,
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: and we've been believers all season long, but as of late,
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: there's been some concern. The Cardinals have lost two consectual
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: games for the first time this season. They lost to
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: the Ramps and then got whooped by the Detroit Lions
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: on Sunday, Yes, the Detroit Lions. The Lions won by
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: the final score of thirty to twelve, and the game
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: wasn't really that close. The Lions controlled from the start,
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: taking a seventeen old lead into halftime, and then at
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: one point in the third quarter, the Lions were out
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: twenty four to three. The Cardinals were able to close
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: the gap a little bit with twelve seconds excuse me
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: twelve with twelve second half points, but the game was
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: well out of hand. Colin Murray, who was an MVP
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: Guy canadidate to start the season, had an alright day
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: struggle a little bit twenty three or forty one, two
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: fifty seven and one touchdown, one interception, and he had
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: three yards on four carries, which is crazy. Christian Kirk
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: was the only want to really do anything in the
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: box score with nine receptions for ninety four yards and
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: one touchdown. Zach Ertz has six receptions for seventy four.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: Jared Goff put together a game twenty one to twenty
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: six two sixteen in three touchdown. Craig Reynolds led all
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: running backs with one hundred and twelve yards on twenty
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: six cars for Detroit, and we heard some troubling comments
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: post game from the Cardinals. Colin Murray said, look, they
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: were hungrier than us, they played harder than us. We
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: didn't come prepare in all of that showed. I kind
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: of liked that. I like them call his teammates out
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: right before the playoffs. Hey, let's get right, let's fix
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: this thing now. That's not what you want to hear,
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: but you will take that now. They also finished the
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: season with the Colts Cowboys and the Seahawks. So they
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: got some tough games coming up. It's not going to
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: be easy going forward. But they're still ten and four.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: They can still win the division and still get a
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: high seed into the playoffs. You know, I would kill
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: to be in their position right now. Obviously ten and
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: four still having a playoff, destiny dreams, whatever you want
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: to call it. But man, it's a little late in
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: the season to not be shown up effort wise. They're
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: hungry in than us. They've played harder than us. We
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: didn't come prepared at all, and it showed. It's the NFL. Man,
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: you can't just show up on Sunday and get it. Dub.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: I know that are the Detroit Lions, but you don't
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: want to see that if you're a Cardinals fan. That'd
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: also be interesting to see how they finish out the season. Otherwise,
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: in the NFC West, the forty nine Ers took on
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: the Falcons, and these forty nine Ers, man, they are
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: a completely different team as of late, with the exception
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: of when they play the Seahawks. They've won five of
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: their last six and are in great shape in terms
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: of the playoffs and the wildcard, currently holding down the
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: sixth seed and have a one game lead over the Vikings.
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: Against the Falcons last Sunday, the forty nine ers, it
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: was pretty much all forty nine ers all day. They
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: had four touchdowns on four consecutive drives at one point
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: control from start to finish. Me gee, he just continues
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: to play under the radar. Consistent football. Eighteen of twenty three,
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: two thirty five, one touchdown, no interceptions. Jeff Wilson had
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: things going on the ground one hundred ten yards on
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: twenty one carries in a touchdown. George Kittle he led
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: all receivers six receptions ninety three yards on six targets
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: for nine ers grade on third downs going six of eleven,
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: also had twenty three first downs compared to the Falcon's thirteen.
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: And all the talk about we on this podcast even
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: everything was, hey, where's Tray Lance? Get Trey Lance in there, man,
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: he's the future. Jimmy G's wash blah blah blah. Yo's
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: that's stopped. Ain't nobody's saying that now because Jimmy G's
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: actually lead them to the playoffs. He's not gonna overwhelm me,
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: and we know that. But he's efficient. Man, every week
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: I'm looking at his numbers. He's always like, you know,
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: seventy five plus in terms of completing percentage. He's doing
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: just enough to keep them alive. The forty nine Ers
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: are going to be a dangerous team down the stretch.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: Lucky for them, they do not have to play the
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks quickly. I look at the playoffs standings now,
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: the Seahawks are not mathematically eliminated from the playoffs. So
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: I just want to say that. I just want to
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: put that in the atmosphere. However, boy, it's gonna take
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: I don't know who you pray too, but you need
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: to start praying to them today, tomorrow, and the next
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: day because the Seahawks are going to need it. Vikings
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: are seven and seven in the last playoff spot, Eagles
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: seven and seven, Saint seven and seven, Watching Football Team
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: six and eight, Falcon six and eight, Panthers five and nine,
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: the Seahawks for five and nine. I'm not gonna waste
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: everybody's time and go through all the crazy scenarios because
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: I'll be here for an hour, but they're not. They're
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: not out of it. See, I need to win out.
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: There'll be eight to nine and it'll be incredibly hard.
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: It might even involve some ties. I don't know, but nonetheless,
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: the Seahawks are still in it. I'm saying there's a chance.
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: It's probably less than one percent, but there is a chance. Anyway.
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: Let's get back into these Chicago Bears. Man is this
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: man up on Hawk Talk. Let's look at some of
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: these matchups. Justin Fields is going against the Seahawks defense.
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: On the year, Justin Fields as eighteen hundred yards, seven touchdowns,
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: and ten interceptions. He's only completing fifty eight percent of
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: his passes and he's been sacked thirty six times in
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: twelve games. A Hawks should be able to get after
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: this guy. He does that seventy two carries fro four
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: into the twenty yards and two touchdowns. He has definitely
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: shown moments of brilliance. He looks good at times, but
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: then he also looks like a rookie. That's what we
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: expect how a rookie quarterbacks. A lot of struggles feels
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: his face this year can be attributed to the Bears
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: offensive line and constant questions about who will be coaching
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: this team in the future. Lots of stuff going on there,
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: But on the positive side, you hear good things about
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: his leadership from his teammates. Guys are saying, look, but
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: he's super calm. He gets in the huddle when things
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: are good, things are bad, he's even killed. He doesn't
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: really get rattled. That's a good start, important for a
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: rookie quarterback. The Seahawks defense is playing with a lot
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: of confidence and should have a great day going to
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: get up against the Bears. There we're in twenty ninth.
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: When it comes to offense, the Bears also have the
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: league's worth passing off his averaging one hundred and eighty
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: two yards passing per game. I'm going to say Diggs
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: gets a pick number six career high against Justin Fields
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: and the Bears. Yeah, no question about it. I agree
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: with you on that. Bum Quandre Diggs has definitely been
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: confusing quarterbacks all season long, and if he can intercept
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford, I think he can intercept Justin Field too.
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: Is shown brilliant at times, like we said, but definitely
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: shown he is a rookie quarterback. On the flip side,
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: the Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson number three, going against his
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: Bears front seven. Russell Wilson on the year two O
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: eight for three eighteen twenty four hundred yards, sixteen touchdowns,
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: five picks, thirty one carries one hundred forty one yards
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: in one touchdown, and after putting together his best two
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: games stretch of the season, russ really struggled last week
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: against the Rams defense, going seventeen to thirty one one
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: hundred and fifty six yards, zero touchdowns, one interception. Was
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: also sacked three times, and he was doing stuff that
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: we're not normally seeing. I thought we kind of got
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: past some of the overthrows into some of the lack
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: of accuracy from Russell. Fortunately, that kind of came back
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: and he's just not making some of the throws that
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: he's consistently made throughout his career. We obviously know he's
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: come back from a finger injury. There's just a lot
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: going on, a lot of different guys going in and
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: out on the offensive line, and the bad news for Russell.
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: Despite the Bears record, they got a good defense man
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: ninth overall in total defense, allowing three hundred and twenty
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: six yards per game. They also are very good against
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: the pass, but he mentioned it their fourth in the NFL,
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: allowing just two hundred and five yards. And boy, Robert Quinn, man,
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: holy my goodness, he's having a monster season. Forty five tackles,
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: sixteen sacks, and three force fumbles. Bump. I don't have
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: the sack numbers in front of me for the Seahawks
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: and me look back, but he almost has more sacks
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: by himself than the entire Seahawks team. Seahawks have only
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: sack quarterbacks twenty five times. This man has sixteen alone,
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: So Russell Wilson, I'm hoping he gets back to form
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: this weekend, but it's not gonna be easy, gonna be tough. Man,
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: Robert Quinn is a beast. I did a film session
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: on this guy. Got two sacks against Aaron Rodgers. Dude
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: can get it done, all right. Let's go over to
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: the receivers man Darnielle Mooney and Alan Robinson versus Seahawks
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: secondary The Bears that are nothing like these Hawks have
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: seen as of late when it comes to the receiving corps.
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: But you got two guys who can get it done
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: and who are just fast when they're on the football field.
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: Mooney has fifty seven receptions for eight hundred and three
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: yards and three touchdowns. Alan Robinson fifty six receptions for
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: three fifty three and one touchdown. Godwinn, excuse me, Goodwin.
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: It's the next best receiver. He just has sixteen receptions
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: for two seventy seven and one touchdown. You played with
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: a rookie quarterback. It's gonna be tough, right. You gotta
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: rely on this guy to get you the football. So
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: that's what I attribute to Allan Robinson stats being down
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: a bit and him being hurt. He's missed a few games.
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: Alan had back to back a thousand yards seasons in
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: twenty nineteen and twenty twenty, but like I mentioned, he's
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: been hurt any tests of positive for COVID. This is
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: a game where I want to see these corners really
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: step up. Even though you know you're playing with some backups.
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: You gotta bless Austin out there. You still got Digs
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: in the secondary holding down. But if there's a game
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: for these guys to be dominant when it comes to
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: the past game, this is it. But these you gotta
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: respect Mooney and Robinson. They have enough to make big plays. Yeah,
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: no question. Robinson is a savvy that, like you mentioned,
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: back to back one thousand yards seasons in nineteen and twenty.
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: He can get it done. I heard the thing. I
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: watched him on one of the Monday Night countdowns earlier
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: in the year when you're that segment with Randy Moss
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: and you talked about it being a learning curve man,
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: you know, justin fields and just trying to figure stuff out.
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: But dude as a ball or he can still play. Now.
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: The Bears don't do a lot of great things offensively,
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: but one thing they do do well is run the football.
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: David Montgomery is the reason why. He's got one hundred
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: and sixty two carries, six hundred and sixty eight yards
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: in four touchdowns. The Bears are the eighth ranked rushing
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: attack in the NFL, averaging one hundred and twenty five
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: yards game. Khalil Herbert has also been effective on the ground,
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: with three hundred and nine and two yards on ninety
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: five carries and one touchdown. Once you row in justin fields,
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: they got three players that have around four hundred yards rushing,
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: so they can clearly are successful in that part of
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: the game. Now here's something that I dug up bump
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: that's interesting. So the Seahawks are twenty first in the
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: league when it comes to stopping the run in one
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: hundred and sixteen yards per game. However, that's actually kind
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: of misleading because the defense has been on the field
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: way longer than most teams. When you break it down
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: two yards per carry an attempt, the Seahawks are only
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: allowing three point eight yards per attempt. That's high for
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: the best of the National Football League. So that shows
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: you that when teams actually do you decide to run
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: the ball, the Seahawks are actually do a decent job.
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: They're just on the field for so much longer. Devil's
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: advocate would say, well, they shoun get off the field,
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: but obviously it's more about, you know, volume and quantity.
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: A lot of that has to do with the offense.
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: So they're actually they're actually pretty damn good at stopping
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: the run. But bumble us into this man. The Seahawks
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: defense has been on the field for one thousand and
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: one plays this year, number one in the NFL by
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: a wide margin. The Giants are the next closest team,
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: have been on the field for nine hundred and fifty
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: four plays, essentially meaning the Seahawks have played an additional
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: game on defense than the next closest team. The Broncos
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: on the other side of that, have the least Ember
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: plays at eight thirty two, So real talk. The Seahawks
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: have played like three extra games and the Broncos defense
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: has this here, so that's context to show you how
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: long they've been on the field and that they're actually
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: pretty good stopping run. But that's just wild to me.
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: Bump That is crazy. Defense, Get off the fields, save
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: some miles, especially on guys like Bobby Wagner. All right,
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: another matchup. Let's look at DK, Tyler Lockett and d
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: Escars versus the Bear Secondary. Seahawks are hoping to get
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: Tyler Lockett back on the field. We missed him last
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: week against the Rams. DK struggleman again. Of all the
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: last six games, he hadn't scored a touchdowns to this
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: Halloween against the Jaguars. My family was at that game.
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: So that's what we gotta do. We gotta get the
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: bumpuses back in the building so DK can score a touchdown.
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: All right, he has more. He has not more than
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: sixty yards since weeks which is crazy. After setting the
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: franchise record for receiving last season, DK is not having
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: the season we all expected. This year, he has sixty
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: two receptions, eight hundred and five yards and eight touchdowns.
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: That's wild to say that this is kind of a disappointment, right,
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: sixty two yards, eight hundred, sixty two receptions, eight hundred
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: yards and eight receptions, and we're disappointed. That's just how
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: good Dk metcalf is. The Scrig, on the other hand,
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: was targeted four times and had zero receptions against the Rams.
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: The Seahawks really need these three to get going against
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: the Bears. I mean, this is the future right here, right.
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: You can get a few more years out of lock it.
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: We know DK's contract years coming up. You drafted ds
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: Skridge early. Let's get it done. The Bears have the
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: fourth best passing defense but only have six interceptions, which
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: is twenty nine in the league. Opportunity out there, Let's
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: get it all right, Let's figure out how the Seahawks
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: can get this done. Path to victory. After forty five
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: waits for the staff, Michael Vickson puts it down. That
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: kick is away. If that kick is god, it's gone.
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: It's a path to victory. On Hawk Talk. You would
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: not have thought it when the season started, but right now,
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: the Seahawks defense is carrying this ball club. They're definitely
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: the MVP's keeping this team afloat. They're playing with confidence
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: right now. They haven't allowed more than twenty three points
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: since Week five, their fourth in the NFL and points
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: allowed per game. We've talked about this a lot on
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: the prem post game show, how much do yards really matter? Well,
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: at the end of the day, the Seahawks are keeping
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: guys out of the end zone, which really is what
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: matters is on the scoreboard. So they need to continue
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: to play at the level that they're at. And they're
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: playing a rookie quarterback. Man, it's Justin Fields to a
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: great career Ohio State. I think he's gonna be a
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: good quarterback in the NFL, but he's a rookie and
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: the Seahawks need to make him look like it, create turnovers,
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: get after him because you know, he's got seven touchdowns,
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: ten interceptions prowning turn football over. They've struggled in the
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: offensive line, so the Seahawks have a really golden opportunity
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: to get after Justin Fields and make him look bad.
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: On Sunday. They him look like a rookie. And because
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: he's a rookie quarterback, they're gonna run the football, and
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: they're good at running the football. So let's stop the run.
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: You mentioned the Hawks have been on them field for
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: a thousand and one snaps only averaging three point eight
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: yards per carry. Let's keep the good times rolling, but
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: get the snaps out the way. Let's shorten the snaps,
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: keep the run. Defense nights and proper will be good
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: to go, and let's get a rhythm on offense. Russell
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: Wilson was off last week. This offense didn't really make
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: any big plays. I think now it's the time to
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: do it. Finish the season strong and take care of
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: it against the team that I feel like they should
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: be able to move the ball against, no question about it.
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: I think that it's hard to throw shade. What it
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: was just saying, don't throw stones if you live in
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: a glass house, right, Yeah, that the Bears are four
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: in the four and ten sea Xtra five and nine.
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: I just the Seahawks are just such a better football team.
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: It paints me to say that. Call me a homer
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: and call me if you want. The Seahawks are so
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: much better than a five and nine record, and it
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: just paints me to talk about it. But as a
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: wise Man told me, man, you are what your record is.
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: Nothing you can do about that. That's real. That's life,
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: doesn't matter. Dominic glenis carriage for techt home Field. Find
