Now from the Star Rentals Sports Desk, your ninety three
point three KJRFM sports headlines.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Headlines on a Tuesday. This is not even force. Creig
Villin distribute headlines for a Tuesday afternoon here from the
Virginia Mason Athletic Center, Seahawks Headquarters, brought to you by
Frostbrew towards like choose Chill the Kraken remember them. They
take on the Colorado Avalanche tonight at Colimon Pledgerina at
any of U turn. They lost back to back losses
to the Mammoth from the Sabers and homely bost eight
of nine. Remember when they were in first place in
(00:30):
the Pacific Division last month. They're in sixth now, six
point thirty pre game show with our man Mike Benon
for a seven o'clock face off right here on your
home for the crack at ninety three point three KJRFM
Kracking and Avalanche tonight. We'll talk to Mike Benton in
a little bit about that. Seahawks back out here at
the Virginia Mason Athletics Center on the short week Thursday
Night battle Royale against the Los Angeles Ramps for first
(00:52):
place in the NFC West most teams at eleven and three.
The Rams haven't ruled out star wide receiver DeVante Adams,
the NFL leader in touchdown case, which is with fourteen,
despite him dealing with a hamstring injury. He aggravated that
left hamstring against the Lions and the Las win on Sunday.
Sean McVay said today, they're gonna probably go right up
to game time before deciding about Adams. Is a little
(01:13):
bit of competitive advantage. Try to keep that in doubt.
For Mike McDonald. The Seahawks Adams did not practice today
down in Southern California. Winner, we'll have control of the
NFC West with two games to play after Thursday night.
The Huskies men's soccer team, congratulations. Hats off to them.
The whole city is celebrating this. Lumen field was in
(01:33):
Purple last night. Mariners Park down and Soto was lighted
up in Purple last night because the men's Huskies soccer
team won their first national championship yesterday. Took a two
lead on fifteenth rank North Carolina State in North Carolina,
and then they held on after blowing a two goal
lead in extra time. Harrison BeRTOS scored at one to
(01:54):
fifty four in overtime golden goal in college soccer to
win it. It's the tenth team team national championship for
the Huskies athletic program, the first undisputed one for a
men's team. I know, the ninety one team in football.
Tack Apapi. It spoken like a true coupes with back
guitar and l Hats off to the Huskies men's soccer
(02:16):
team for the winning the national championship last night. The
Mariners announced today they've signed catcher Andrew Kisner to a
one year major league contract through the twenty twenty sixth season.
Manners now had thirty nine players on the forty man roster.
Kisner's thirty years old. He's appeared seven major league seasons
with Saint Louis, Texas and San Francisco last year for
the Giants thirty three games last year to twenty one,
(02:38):
twelve runs, a double, triple, a home run, five arbis,
seven walks, did not allow a pass ball over two
hundred and thirty four innings behind the plate. So he
sounds like a new insurance policy behind Kyl Rawley at
the catcher position. The Steelers took down the Dolphins last
night in frigid Pittsburgh ten degrees there for Monday Night
Football twenty eight to fifteen. Suddenly nobody's talking about firing
(02:58):
Mike Tomlin anymore. Shailers are eight and six and in
first place in the AFC North, a game over Baltimore,
who they end the season with in Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh hold's
first place by one game, as I said, over Baltimore.
But now the Steelers go to the desperate Detroit Lions,
who are trying to win to keep their playoff hopes alive.
That's coming up this weekend. Texas and college football Arch
(03:19):
Manning quarterback that everyone's going to put in the NFL
before he played a college game. He's going to return
for the twenty twenty sixth season at UT We found
that out last night. Apparently this news broke on ESPN
through his father, Cooper Manning, who stated in a text
reported Dave Wilson, Longhorns are facing Michigan in the cheese
at Citrus Bowl in New Year's Eve. Cheese Its shit,
thank us for putting that in. And it's not just
(03:39):
a Citrus.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
I've worked to choose it bowl before. That's it's quite entertaining.
Their marketing strategy.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
Yeah, you get all kinds of cheese its. They throw
a match in. You don't actually jump into a box
of cheese its.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
I saw Pat McAfee sit on top of a gigantic,
twenty foot tall cheese a box for the one I worked.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
That's a high of your career, doesn't it. Oh?
Speaker 3 (04:01):
Yeah, I have like a memory board of it in
my in my place.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Yeah, and now onto our show today, We've got a
little Pope prix of everything. Ian Ferness is away for
the next two days, so he had asked me to
help about with Jess when McIntyre, my Army Eavy friend
back from Baltimore with me after we were stumbling around
the Baltimore airport at five in the morning on Sunday
in the snow.
Speaker 4 (04:24):
You know what, we made it. We made it.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
That was quite a little tableau there from four in
the morning or five in the morning, whatever it was.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
I was up at four thirty. We were supposed to
leave at seven am.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
And it's funny too, because I'm like so paranoid about
missing a flight that you know, I basically didn't sleep.
Speaker 4 (04:41):
I took a nap at some point and you.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
Know around you know, three to four thirty in the morning,
and but what it was. So I think I've told
you I'm a really good plane sleeper if I.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Had as before they even deced.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
The plane, right, So when I woke up, I was like, oh,
you know, it's forty minutes later. I'm thinking, oh, I missed.
I slept through takeoff. And then I looked out the
window and there's still the icing.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
Yeah, de icing at Baltimore Airport.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
We did make it, and thank goodness we did have
a direct flight.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
We did. We ended at noon. I went straight to
the yard to Seahawks and Colts and yeah, probably not
the best game story I've ever written, but you know
what a dub right exactly. So we're in talk Seahawks
and Rams. Obviously you're gonna hear from Julian Love at
two thirty. I talked to him yesterday, the Pro Bowl
safety who's really ramping back now into full go from
(05:32):
the hamstring issue that cost him nine of the first
twelve games. This will be his third game back. They've
been ramping him up through the first two and he
said yesterday he hopes they just unleash him to go
full go Thursdy nine against the Rams. I get the
feeling that's what they've been doing. Eye in this game
to go full go with Julian Love, but he had
some interesting things to say about the Rams and Sean
(05:53):
McVay and how he's always an offensive innovator and that
this year what he's doing more than anybody in the
league is three tight ends thirteen personnel for the Rams,
they're in a twenty five percent twenty four point six percent.
One in every four plays they're in three tight ends.
Klobe Parkinson, the former Seahawks tight end they drafted and
played his first four years here in Seattle. He's their
(06:13):
lead tight end right now. They got a six' five,
Rookie Terrence, ferguson who is a matchup nightmare if you
devote some big guy to cover the sixty Six, parkinson
and they got a third tight end who's six' five
and he's got three touchdown. Catches, Himself anyway love was
talking about that and about how McVeigh has changed. Yet
again while the rest of the league has gone to
(06:34):
small and, fast Guys the rams are now going big
with three, tight ends and they may go a lot
more three tight ends than twenty five Percent on. Thursday
Night If demonte adams, doesn't play it would just be pookin'
akua and probably a lot of three. Tight Ends But
jessman seahawks have somebody that nobody in the league has
to counter some of those three, tight ends AND that's nicki, even.
Speaker 4 (06:53):
Worry yep and that he had a, rookie Year.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
OH man i mean playing everywhere right, post, safety safety
in the box against, the run, outside linebacker, inside linebacker off,
the ball sometimes the only off ball linebacker Along With.
Ernest jones when they go nickel and Dime with woolen
and Job, and witherspoon it gives a whole new deck
of Cards for mike McDonald to play Defensively with nick
(07:17):
emun worry he's even been a, defensive end as he
was a couple games ago Against. The vikings i'm pretty
sure that McDonald had him play nine snaps at. Defensive
end seven snaps it was a, defensive end six of
them as A nine tech at right outside edge of the,
tight end just so McVeigh could see that on film
and have to consider that because he didn't, PLAY that
(07:38):
i saw a defensive end Against. The colts suffice, to
Say between Witherspoon And julian love coming back and how
he Uses. Nick emund Worry that mike McDonald's going to
show McVay stuff he hasn't seen yet From the seahawks defense.
On film, of course that's always true that the other
team is going to show. Something new i'm sure McVeigh
has held things back that he'll unleash On the seahawks
(08:01):
Offensively On, Thursday night but that's the game within the
game that's really the Key To. Thursday nights can McDonald
really Thought the rams offense as he has the first,
two games first three games, They've, played jess we can
throw OUT that jv game they Had in january at
the end of, last season When the rams had clinched.
Everything right stafford, Didn't play so let's throw. That, Out
(08:24):
yes seahawks. Won that but the two games where they've
been full go And the rams had played, their Starters,
including stafford in the whole. Starting offense think. About it
when it Was in Seattle Last november november twenty, twenty
four the McDonald's defense Held the rams to one touchdown. In,
regulation remember the big play in that game was one
hundred and three yard interception Return by kitchens for the
(08:45):
touchdown that basically got that game. To Overtime If gino
smith didn't throw, that Interception the seahawks likely would have
won that game. In regulation But the rams only scored
one touchdown offensively in regulation in, that game then they
wanted in overtime with. The touchdown and then you go
back to the last Month, In Inglewood sam donald throws
four interceptions his, career High the rams score three touchdowns twenty.
(09:09):
One points. That's it two of those three drives For,
the rams four yards and twenty three yards were their
touchdown Drives because donald had handed them the interception and
allowed them to just walk into the. End Zone the
rams only had one drive beyond fifty yards in, that
game and that was a seventy four yard Drive To
kobe parkinson's six yard Catch from stafford early in the
(09:30):
fourth quarter that made it twenty one. To twelve without,
the interceptions McDonald's defense likely holds him to one touchdown
on that, Game too so in two games, eight quarters
McDonald's defense has allowed two majority of the field drives
for touchdowns By the rams starting Offense of. SEAN McVay
I think i know that McDonald thinks he's got McVeigh
(09:53):
that he can check mate the moves that McVeigh may
make with three tight Ends Or Kyrine Williams puka nakua
Or If DeVante adams plays, so far there's a track
record To suggest jessman that Maybe the Seahawks and mike
McDonald have an anecdote to what McVay has been doing to.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
Everybody, else, well yeah and we have TO give i
think McVay has been there, seven, years.
Speaker 4 (10:17):
Right yeah he has a.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
Life now, oh, yeah, no, sorry sorry but he's been
there for a very, long, time right.
Speaker 4 (10:24):
So, job yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah that.
Speaker 3 (10:28):
Is RIGHT because i met him in, twenty SEVENTEEN well
I guess i was, twenty eighteen but it was for
that year Of The super Bowl On, radio row and,
so yeah that would be nine years and and he is.
JUST such i met him, in person had him On
With john clayton at, the time and you can tell
how he has the charisma to get. That job, but
(10:50):
man he knows what. He's doing and, SO yeah i
Think that my whole point is that he has a
step up ON, this nfc, you KNOW the, nfc competitions
but SPECIFICALLY The. NFC west i Think that mike McDonald
has made a short time of a lot. Of learning
he has done a phenomenal job of having THAT and
(11:13):
i think what you said the anecdote that makes a lot.
Speaker 4 (11:15):
Of sense it just.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
We'll see if he can do. It again but in
the first two, games anyway he's been what nobody else
in the league has been, to McVeigh and he's been.
Limited him he's just two drives for touchdowns offensive long
drives for touchdowns and those two. Games combined. We'll See
but Nick eimn worry is, a huge huge piece that
they have not had before they Now Even warrior course
(11:38):
played last month in the n that first time he
played Against. The rams he played all sixty snaps Against
the colts. Last weekend he began, this season remember the
high ankle sprain his fourth fifth player of the season
and was out for. Three weeks and then when he
came back he was somewhat of a situational player playing
two thirds of. The snap. Not anymore McDonald realized he
can't take him off. The Field, even worry he's played
(11:59):
one hundred percent of the snap up. Right now, injury
Wise the seahawks have not practiced this week for. Obvious
reasons they just got done with eighty car Crashes and
sunday Against. The, colts yesterday they were just on the
field walking through the. Game plan BUT the nfl requires
that Teams for thursday night games put out an injury
report as if they would have practiced On, A monday
and on, that Report the seahawks Estimated That charles cross
(12:21):
did not participate although he was standing, Out there cross
injured his hamstring while we were all noticing a fifty
six yard field Goal By jason myers going through the
uprights to win that game with eighteen seconds left Against,
The Colts, charles cross the starting, left tackle. Got Smashed
the colts defender jumped on top of him and he
lost his balance and did the splits and fell straight to.
(12:44):
The ground and it was a three hundred and twenty
pous pound man who shouldn't be doing splits like, a
gymnast and he grabbed his left. Hamstring immediately and that
is the Concern for seattle is that he won't be able,
to play especially on the. Short week McDonald yesterday said
it's quote possible that he, could play but they are
working hard at getting him toward, possibly playing even having
(13:05):
a chance to play on the, short week it wouldn't
Surprise Me Josef josh jones is going to be the starting.
Left tackle that's why they signed him to be the.
Swing tackle he played a few Snaps For abe lucas
Against the Colts when lucas went out to get on
an injury check in the. First half lucas came back
and finished, that Game and mike Mcconnat said lucas, is
Fine But josh jones would be the next man up at,
(13:26):
left tackle and that's an issue Against the rams. Defensive
line jones has acquitted himself pretty well in the times
he's had, to play but you need all your, guns
going including your bookend tackles Against this. Rams front there's,
really young, really fast and. REALLY strong i Talked To
jalen sindel YESTERDAY and i was asking him what Do the.
Rams do he's only played, him once, of course, last
(13:47):
month right before he got injured and was on four
games on. Injured reserve he's, back now started at center
Against the colts. Last week he'll Start again, thursday night
and he Said the rams are really good at both
being strong. And fast he said he's in that most
defensive linemen are either one or. The other they're really strong,
bull rushing but maybe not. As fast. He Said the rams.
(14:08):
Are both and he said in, pass Rush the rams
defensive linemen bull rush for an, entire game that they're
in enough shape and conditioning to. Do that he said
that not a lot of defensive linemen can straight bull
rush you with the strength and power and stamina that
death takes for, sixty minutes But the rams. Front can
so they need suffice, to say they really need all
(14:29):
the starters on the, offensive line and it's a touch
and go. Right Now Whether charles cross is going, TO
play i expect him to probably be listed as questionable
at best tomorrow and then be a game, time decision
Much Like DeVante adams For, the rams who will probably
also be a game. Time decision everything else injury wise
seems to be okay For the seahawks going into, this
(14:51):
game which is somewhat of a blessing for it being
In mid december on a. Short week they're in pretty
good shape relative to what they could be now that
They have sundel back. At center, we'll see, Because Yeah.
Charles cross, to me that's a big issue if he,
can't play and they could have to keep extra tight
ends in. The chip you could see. A j barner
(15:12):
maybe not releases quickly in pass routes and have to
stay in and help block off the. Left edge you
could See zach scharbonay get more reps in the backfield
at four pass Blocking Over kenneth Walker If josh jones
is the, left tackle so That sharbon a can chip off.
The edge but they going to have contingency plans In
Case charles cross can't play out of the Game on
(15:33):
sunday Against. THE colts i don't know if you guys
talked about this yesterday on the Show when ian Was,
here jesseman but they gave a game ball to the head.
Research analysts did you guys talk about? That yesterday we.
Didn't know so you remember When the colts got the third,
and seven they got the completion on a back Shoulder
Throw philipps river's best throw of. The game It Beat
(15:53):
josh job across midfield for a first down with one
twelve remaining in. The game the culture down fifteenth and
they were At the seahawks forty nine with one. Twelve
left after the ensuing first, Down play mike McDonald called
its first of three timeouts. On Defense He brian ayres
is the chief, spreadsheet analyst, research analyst analytics guy in.
(16:17):
The building he was in the press Box imploring mike
McDonald to use these three timeouts on defense about fifteen
yards before most coaches Would have most coaches would, have,
said well they're a midfield that's a sixty seven yard
kick forty nine. Yard nine why are we calling our.
Defensive timeouts they're not even scoring. Position yet to take,
The lead airs rightly projected That the colts would milk
(16:40):
the clock there and try to Make the seahawks have
no time to. Respond offensively If the colts would happen
to get a. Field Goal he airs predicted That the
colts would play for the field goal from sixty yards
and he was. Exactly right they ran on, first down
they ran a short pass inside that they made sure
was completed in. Bounds quickly on second, and down and
(17:01):
on third and four at the would that have been
the forty three yard Line. Of seattle almost always a
pass down in the league when you're down. Two Points
the colts ran It And jonathan taylor got stopped for
a fourth down that caused a sixty yard. Field goal
mike McDonald said that was beyond the range That the
(17:21):
seahawks had estimated that their kicker could make it, from
there yet. He did But because mike McDonald took those
timeouts on each of those, three downs they had forty
seven seconds, to Respond And sam donald after the, game
said as, A quarterback i'd much rather have fifty seconds
and no timeouts than twenty seconds and, excuse, me yes
(17:42):
fifty seconds no timeouts than twenty seconds with a timeout or,
two left because, HE said i can then throw to
the middle of the field and still have time to
run up and spike, the ball which is exactly what
they did on first down the seceding Drive To, rashid
shaheed a twenty some yard passed down the middle of
the field without timeouts or without twenty the fifty seconds
(18:03):
or forty seven seconds they. Had left he wanted to throw,
in that but he knew that he could get the
offense back up to the field twenty yards up the
field and still spike and in plenty of time to
run a couple more plays eight yard and then an
eight yard Completion Is. Shaheed woila they get a fifty six.
Yard Field But brian airs won, the game and after
the game in the, locker room they gave him a.
Game ball among all the players that are used to getting,
(18:25):
game balls They gave brianaires a game ball for the
unconventional use of the. THREE timeouts i wrote a story
for that At The news tribune. Dot com and another
Way that mike McDonald's ahead of Some games jessamine with
a thinking ahead.
Speaker 4 (18:37):
Before were all playing checkers in his. Chest.
Speaker 3 (18:39):
GAME yeah i what the thing that impresses me most
is how fast he's done, It, right yes.
Speaker 2 (18:46):
Two seasons ten wins in, each season among the BEST
In nfl history's second most road wins in first two
seasons thirteen and two on the road since he. Took
over and it's because he's rebuilt the. Defense quickly that's
why they. Hired him but they hired Him Most john
Schneider And, jody allen, The Team Charon. Burke cole they
hired him to Beat the rams at forty nine ers

Speaker 6 (21:17):

Speaker 7 (21:19):
Las vegas FOR The Nba cup finals Between the spurs And.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
The knicks but.
Speaker 6 (21:25):
My last Check in la everything was. Was okay. Everything
was it was, not raining that's. For sure a little
foggy THIS morning, i heard but. Not raining have to.
Speaker 2 (21:35):
Get, Over that george before We Talk. Ram seahawks since
You're In, las vegas what do you think OF This?
Nba cup do you? Like it do the fans? Like
it do the players? Like it is it just a
diversion from the long grind of a? Regular season is
this here? To, stay.
Speaker 6 (21:51):
Well it's here, to STAY and i do think the players.
Speaker 7 (21:54):
LIKE it i was a bit skeptical, at first but
THE way i saw the players buy into this thing,
very quickly and we saw that the first year and
we have continued to. SEE that i THINK the nba
got what it wanted because if, you recall, you know
after the first couple, of nights, you know the season
so long that guys weren't necessarily playing all out every.
(22:17):
Single night but then you started adding these, cup games
you put stakes, to it and these guys are as
competitive as they as, they come, YOU know, i mean
and any professional athlete really you can say that for
but particularly when you're talking about a long grind LIKE,
the nba and all of, a sudden these guys were
playing hard early in the season to get to.
Speaker 6 (22:36):
THIS point i think the. Money helps it's not a ton.
Speaker 7 (22:38):
OF money, i mean it's a ton of money for
maybe the guys on the lower end of, the roster
five hundred and thirty. Thousand dollars but you, know what
it's funny like you put any stakes on, this stuff
and even these multi millionaires get really excited for a
little cash and a, little action.
Speaker 6 (22:52):
Let's say, AND yeah i think it's here. To stay
the players are.
Speaker 7 (22:56):
PLAYING hard, I was i've been at all, of them
but even this most, recent event man, that, okay okay
See thunder. Spurs game the defensive level INTENSITY that i saw,
that night that's playoff. Level INTENSITY and i Just think
Victor wmbin yama in general is one of these guys
that's wired the way fans would love their star to,
(23:16):
be wired where he wants to just eat your heart out.
Every time he wants to take you out. Every TIME
and i think that vodes well FOR the nba and.
Speaker 6 (23:25):
Its future but.
Speaker 7 (23:26):
THIS pup i think it'll change a. LITTLE bit i
think the SEMI finals i.
Speaker 6 (23:31):
Was told were going to be at the.
Speaker 7 (23:33):
Home site so, for example okayc would, have Hosted the
knicks would, have hosted Or the magic would have hosted in,
that case and then the finals will.
Speaker 6 (23:42):
Be somewhere I'm.
Speaker 7 (23:45):
Guessing vegas is still going to be in, the mix
but there's some chatter about some other potential cities that could.
Speaker 2 (23:50):
Be involved how ARE the tv ratings FOR The? Nba
cup IS the nba? Like, THAT well i.
Speaker 7 (23:55):
DON'T know i don't know this year because they Were.
ON amazon i don't know yet what those streaming numbers.
Look LIKE and i don't have the numbers in, you
know available to ME because i don't work. For THEM
but i do think THAT on espn, LAST year i
felt like we got good numbers for that particular semi
(24:17):
final and final.
Speaker 6 (24:18):
LAST year i know the first year was a pretty.
Speaker 7 (24:19):
GOOD success i won't say there was four or, five
million maybe even a little more than that watching When
the lakers Beat.
Speaker 6 (24:25):
The pacers so they get decent numbers for sure on.
Speaker 2 (24:29):
These, events okay let me PUT your la hat on you.
Right now go back To the rams And the Seahawks on,
Thursday Night george SONAO AT Espn Espn. Los angeles He's
In las vegas covering THE Night's nba cup Final Between
san antonio AND the nixt but he also it was
pretty well VERSED in, la sports Including. The rams what
Can the seahawks Expect from sean mcvay's offense if it
(24:50):
Doesn't Have? DeVante adams what? Might change could we see
even more of the three tight ends that he already
leads the. League doing what do you expect the compensation?
To be toy moose?
Speaker 6 (25:00):
He, MAKES yeah i think those tight ends will be dispersed.
Speaker 7 (25:04):
Right ACCORDINGLY and i think all of them are pass, catching.
Types right they all can block fairly, well too so
they're versatile in. That SENSE and i Just think sean.
It's funny you give him more toys to work with
and he'll figure out a way to. Use them and
there was a time they were using four tight ends for,
an injury so they were the only team, doing that
(25:28):
let alone the three tight ends that you alluded to a.
Speaker 6 (25:30):
Moment ago, so yeah, and look he hasn't Ruled. OUT
atams i wouldn't Personally. PLAY atoms i Wouldn't play.
Speaker 7 (25:36):
Atoms honestly the rest of the, regular SEASON if i
were being honest, with you because hamstrings are just things
that continue, to linger and clearly he changes the dynamics
for them in regards to his ability to be explosive over.
The top it Just allows nakua and those tight ends
and even the backs out of the backfield to just
maneuver a little. More freely and, you know you just
(25:58):
want him to be healthy when. IT matters i still
feel like they can win games here down, the stretch
Even Without. DeVante adams i remember he missed some time
early and he was still dealing with the. Hamstring injury,
early on he wasn't Looking Like DeVante adams until he.
Speaker 6 (26:11):
Finally kind of got his win. ABOUT him i think
that that's what. You'll see you'll just be a little
bit more of what you've.
Speaker 7 (26:20):
Already SEEN but i think it's it's going to be
similar to the approach they've taken in, the past except
you may not have as many.
Speaker 6 (26:28):
Deep shots maybe a guy Like too batwell.
Speaker 7 (26:30):
Who can stretch the field a, little bit although he's
a lot more Diminutive Than devonte. Adams IS but i
just don't see them challenging down the field in. Large
chunks i'm not saying that they won't try the fifteen twenty.
Speaker 6 (26:43):
Yard variety i'm talking about thirty forty yards down.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
The Field GEORGE, SODDANO Espn Espn los ANGELES joining us
and they became. Plumbing hotline here on ninety three POINT,
three kgfm two days Before the rams come Up to
seattle to Play the seahawks in a battle royal FOR
The nfc West Lead Matthew, STAFFORD george i mean We
in seattle have heard the news in the summer that
he had a, back issue maybe, in traction he, Couldn't
practice maybe he was going to bother him. All season
(27:08):
and now he's been the NFL's best passer for most of.
The year he's the highest rated passer in, the league
all the metrics of downfield throws yards thirty seven hundred
yards to. Fourteen games what has he done besides? Stay
healthy and is he now suddenly maybe two or three
more years when in fact it looked like at the
summer he might only.
Speaker 7 (27:27):
Have, ONE yeah i think that it's definitely going to be.
Next year at, THIS point i think partially it'll Be,
on matthew to be honest, with you how much longer.
Speaker 6 (27:38):
He GOES and i think a lot of that will
be a.
Speaker 7 (27:41):
Family decision, but yeah the way he, LOOKS now i
mean he's IN the mvp of the league in. My
opinion and you've already mentioned kind of the stuff down the,
Field now davonte's played a role.
Speaker 6 (27:51):
In that pooka. As Well puka nikoua is.
Speaker 7 (27:54):
A guy i the least three of his catches this
last week were fifteen yards, or more so he's really
good at those intermediate to just on the fringes of
long pass catches for the rams and then we know
what he can do even when you just dumped it down.
Speaker 6 (28:08):
To HIM but i think it's just the fact that
they have.
Speaker 7 (28:10):
So many weapons at, his disposal and, most importantly because
he's not the most fleet of foot kind, of guy
is they've been able to come. Up right their, offensive
line who's dealt with all sorts of injuries the last,
several years is.
Speaker 6 (28:23):
All of a sudden healthy and really.
Speaker 7 (28:25):
Deep too because they dealt with all those injuries the
last couple, of years a lot of those backups have
gotten real game time action and have allowed them that's
allowed them to perform even better when they have had
to kind of spell a guy because a guy turns
an ankle for a few plays here, or there and
they really don't miss a beat with their second string,
(28:46):
offensive line as most teams tend to in, those situations
because they haven't had the amount of reps that these
particular guys have gotten on Their first to let their two,
debt on they're, too.
Speaker 6 (28:58):
Deep rather excuse me along their Lines Of, Jaron.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
Ocquins GEORGE, SADANO Espn espn los angelesjoning Us From las
vegas where he's Tonight Calling san Antonio And new york
IN The Nba. Cup final We're Talking rams seahawks. Right
now he mentions this time. Next year this is a
question because he said That because stafford has a two
year contract that ends after. Next year it has a
void year in twenty, twenty seven but his final year
essentially is. Next year he turns thirty Eight, in february
(29:25):
so he'll be playing in his thirty eight year. Old
season could You see sean McVay just running at As
long stafford, wants to because there's really no air, apparent
there right and they're all In on stafford perhaps as
long as he wants to play like you, mentioned.
Speaker 7 (29:40):
Well And the rams are prepared for that. Next step
you may recall they have two first round picks in,
this draft.
Speaker 6 (29:46):
And they don't have to. Use them they could just
keep crating at least one, of them if not.
Speaker 7 (29:50):
Right them they've been pretty notorious for trading down in
the In the sean, McVay ERA so i think that
that's something you could.
Speaker 6 (29:59):
LOOK at i don't know if they look at any
of the guys.
Speaker 7 (30:02):
In this particular draft, and say, all right this is
a guy we can we can. BUILD with i just
like the fact that They've got, stafford clearly who has
been fantastic. This year they feel confident in a Pinch
That jimmy garoppolo can win them games if they, need
To if stafford were to go down for a short
period of time and, you know say what. You want
(30:22):
they seem Confident In, stetson bennett who's played fantastic in.
Speaker 6 (30:25):
The preseason but my opinion is if you get that
to your, third quarterback you're in.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
Deep.
Speaker 6 (30:29):
TROUBLE anyway i don't care who you are unless You're. The,
colts literally as.
Speaker 7 (30:32):
You guys saw, last week where you're taught owt a
forty four year old grandpa and they were in.
Speaker 6 (30:37):
The GAME but i would say that's an outlier in.
Speaker 7 (30:39):
These situations, but yeah they feel confident about their ability
with the guys that, they HAVE and i think that
they've got some ammunition right to kind of put themselves
in a position to draft. A quarterback if not this,
upcoming year maybe kind of wait and see what they
can do in the.
Speaker 2 (30:58):

Speaker 2 (32:36):
Craig bowlin distribute In fore InferNET today and joined now
by My Buddy. MIKE benton i Saw At husky stadium
covering THE Three a state football championship with him a
couple of. Weeks, ago mike we need to hear Some
more fitz fits you and you guys get the highlights
of goal scoring and wins From. The kraken Got The
(32:57):
colorado avalanche tonight at. The barn where do you think
chances that the not just turning around, moaning tonight but
just reversing in a longer term the? Trend here what
has caused them to lose eight? Of nine what do
they have to sustain that they had early in the
season when they were rising to the top Of The. Pacific, division, MAN.
Speaker 11 (33:17):
Well i know that people don't want to hear this
because it's often the cop out and it's often. An
EXCUSE but, i mean when you look at the lineup
and You're Missing jayden Schwartz and jared McCann for a
lineup that's not built to get, you, five six even
seven goals, a night that is a significant chunk of
offense that you're taking away and you're just left scrambling here.
(33:38):
FOR answers I mean, schwartz out McCann out versus you
know what they're projecting to put. Out there that's about
thirteen percent of your offense that you're. Taking away McCann's,
your Shooter And jaden Schwartz is you're a party in
the paint kind of guy who goes in and hunts for, greasey,
goals rebounds you. Name it and he's been so so
effective at. Doing THAT but, i mean we have the
(34:00):
flu bug. Going AROUND but i mean on top, OF
that i mean a lot of teams are going through
right now as far as illness IN, the nhl and,
YOU know i think we we heard a Lot after
sunday night when they Lost, to buffalo Where even brandon
on tour He Told piper shawn ON the tv side
and we had a little more of a conversation that
will air you know for this evening from my Chat
(34:20):
with montour one, on one and that he, wanted more
that the emotion and the energy was not, high Enough
And lane lambert to that, effect said it. Doesn't matter excuses,
are nothing and you got to throw them right out the.
Speaker 2 (34:34):
Window here so, you.
Speaker 11 (34:35):
Know based on who they've, haven't there they're having to
manage right now in the lineup that, this definitely greg
is danger zone time here for. This team they're trying
to find a way to, you know play as mistake
free as, it gets because when you're built to try
to win two one and three two and missing a
good chunk in, THE lineup i mean, one goal maybe,
you know, two goals you go down, to nothing that's almost.
(34:57):
A backbreaker so face In, the avalanche who are rolling as,
they are they're a ten thousand ton wagon right now at,
this point and so, you know as clean as it
gets as far as five, on five staying out of,
the box as much as. You can that's going to
set themselves in the.
Speaker 2 (35:12):
Right direction this may not be the night For the
crack and The wind avalanche to play thirty two games
they've lost two twenty three wins and. Seven guys yeah every, time,
GAMES man i mean they were. First, Place why mike
when early in. The season if you, can compare is it?
Just injuries what Change between November?
Speaker 11 (35:34):
And december as far As, the, kraken, YES well i
would think that what you're getting Is from October through
november and you're relying on a lot. Of goaltending and
we often hear IN the nhl greg for the Month
of October into november where it's almost kind of like
sloppy season and teams are still kind of getting out of.
(35:56):
Training camp, you know they really haven't, you know put
together their their game, in.
Speaker 9 (36:01):
Order their structure.
Speaker 11 (36:02):
In order and we're still going to be seeing this
around the league because of bodies and embodies out of
the line up here at. This POINT but i really,
think that, you know you had to rely on goaltending
a lot to get yourself some wins to whereas, you
know things are a little bit more scrambled as far as,
you know your, defensive play, you know a couple of
bad Games by Joey Decor philip grubauer, having helped so
(36:26):
you know that's kind of what. LED them i think
here this recent slide plus the injuries on top. Of
THAT so i, mean again this is a team that's
going to play a mistake free as it gets and
finally get their health back.
Speaker 2 (36:35):
As well so you mentioned, the flu but, real quick
before we go, anything tonight anybody's gonna be sick not
able to play because.
Speaker 11 (36:40):
Of, that well they had an, optional skates so we
we're not sure of the lineup officially. Just YET but
I Think mason marchman getting back out for practice the.
Other day, you know he's had his ups and downs,
this year but his last game he, looked great two Goals,
Against utah So if I'm Reading, tea leaves he could be.
Back in so, you know we'll see who comes out
as far as, that point but that's potentially if he
(37:02):
can play his, game, big mean nasty like he Was,
against utah that's a.
Speaker 2 (37:06):
Big Help mike benon you'll hear his voice again at

Speaker 2 (40:32):
Sand checks it in, The, mail, john excellent appreciate, That
Great greg. Bell incredible you've been Talking to murph.
Speaker 12 (40:41):
Too, much, YEAH yeah i wouldn't ever say that, about
YOU and i never called. Him great word never came
out of.
Speaker 2 (40:48):
MY mouth i hope listening, To, this john we're All Focused,
rams seahawks and then Since the seahawks went Down to
inglewood last month and, lost narrowly it's been all focused
On the rams up here and now they're going To play.
Thursday night but in, the meantime the forty nine ers
down In The bay area are just one gay behind
These two Rams. And seahawks they've have just, four losses
(41:09):
yet They've Lost, brock perdy They've Lost, fred warner They've Lost.
Nick bosa WHO am i? Forgetting them all the guys,
they've lost and they're, right there they're weighing. Two pounds
and If the seahawks did Beat, the Rams that seahawks
forty nine ers Game in week eighteen could very well
decide the number one seed IN The, nfc West tam
and how have they? Done it because people have kind
of forgotten After the niners lost all.
Speaker 12 (41:30):
Their, guys, yeah well you guys All know ROBERT sal,
i mean he was up there In The pete carrold days,
To ME and I know i'm a, bit BIASED but
i think This Is kyle shannan's best. Coaching JOB and
i Think that robert sala is going to be back
in they in the head coaching realm here very, very
soon just because he's a leader. Of men and this
is what the defense. Has Done, because greg you mentioned
(41:51):
the guys that Are hurt warner's heart, And soul bosa's heart.
And soul They Lost, mickel williams their first round pick Out.
Of georgia they were playing rookies in, the year rookies
early in, the year and sola a say in this
that they might start or at least play up to.
Eight rookies and this was before all. The injuries but
then those Guys Like marky siegel and and, you know
it was a safe young rookie Safety At. Kansas state
(42:11):
those guys have kind of. Fallen off Guys Like alfred
collins have, stepped up but THEY really i don't know
how they've. Done, it Tatum, but thoom he's been a
guy that's in and out of. The lineup like you
just look across. THE board, i mean they Picked Up
clee Farrell, from washington a guy who they had in
Their Their super bowl year when they Lost To kansas
city a couple of years Ago. In vegas he's there
leading Sacker With bryce huff who came over From, the
jets played With Solid.
Speaker 2 (42:32):
New york with.
Speaker 12 (42:32):
Four sacks they cannot get to. The quarterback they're mid
level and. Everything, offensively defensively they give about twenty one points.
A game they score about twenty four points. A game
their special teams are. Vastly improved they were with the
worst in.
Speaker 2 (42:45):
The League Under.
Speaker 12 (42:45):
Brian Schneider brent boyer's done a really. Nice Job any
pinero's kind of saved, their season, you know. But, it
honestly it defies logic to how they're, doing it but they.
Do it and you know They lost party, For stretches kittle.
For stretches williams has been. Banged up they across. THE board,
I mean christian mccaffery's going to have, a thousand. Thousand
YEAR and i was trying to tell anyone who would
(43:06):
listen because he almost as mild mannered as. HE is
i remember in the OTAs, and everything everyone was asking
him how healthy, he WAS and i happened to be
standing right to, his RIGHT and i thought he was
going to grab my throat at one point because he'd
been asked like. Eighty times so, you know he's having a.
Good year but, you know across, the board the health
has been. So bad and generally the rule with the
(43:28):
forty nine ers is when they don't get, the health
they just. Can't win but as you just, pointed out
They've Got philip rivers And The colt till you just
saw they can win. That Game the bears are plus
twenty in, turnover margins leads. The league so if you
don't turn the ball Over against caleb William, the bears
you should be able to, beat him and then it
comes DOWN to i know everybody's Talking about thursday's game Against,
the rams and they, should be but it may just
very well come down to that Game In santa clara
(43:49):
the last week of.
Speaker 2 (43:50):
The year And the Seahawks of bass seven of eight
to the Forty, nine ers as, You, know john including
seventeen thirteen up Here in Seattle When sam donald turned
the ball over in the final minute inside the ten.
Yard nine speaking of, the turnovers the forty nine ers are,
minus five there's six worst in. The league is it
McCaffrey in the run that keeps them?
Speaker 13 (44:08):
In?
Speaker 2 (44:09):
Games offensively is a pretty seems to do it when he.
Has to? What offensively, in particular they Still, have kittle
who's always always been a problem for so but what
has kept them? Afloat, offensively yeah.
Speaker 12 (44:22):
IT'S McCaffrey, i mean you're looking at a guy who's
gonna go. Thousand thousand he's got nine to twenty two
rushing and eight twenty through.
Speaker 6 (44:28):
The air he leaves them.
Speaker 12 (44:29):
In both he just he does everything. For them, because
offensively Even Though jackson Smith and jim but is not
quite on the pace that he was setting a little.
Bit earlier in his, last month he has five hundred.
Receiving yards the forty nine ers don't have a five
hundred yard. Outside receiver they've got a four ninety nine
Guy And kendrick Bourne And juwan jennings at four, ninety
five but they just they haven't. Had that, And again kittle's.
(44:50):
Been hurt we saw that with, you know in the
first game of the Year, against seattle he was he
was out of. That game they get a game winning,
touchdown there which.
Speaker 2 (44:56):
Was crazy at.
Speaker 12 (44:57):
The end it's just been kind of you pointed it.
Right Out brock pertty thrown an interception. A game, You
Know mac jones has kind of saved. Their season you
look at them statistically and, you, say okay they're turning
it over.
Speaker 2 (45:10):
Too much.
Speaker 12 (45:10):
They're not you can't pin anything on them offensively. Or
defensive they're a great. Defensive team no. They're not, They're
okay but you you hit it right on. The head,
you know it's more of a basketball thing than it
is a. Football thing but it's not how many shots,
you hit it's when you. Hit them so you didn't
want the Ball in jordan's Hand or kobe's hands. Or
whatever they could be five, for twenty but if they
hit that six shot with three, seconds left they win.
(45:31):
The game and that's kind of what the forty nine
ers have done, outside of, you know a couple, of
games so they've played some, lesser opponents but they've. Won
Games the seattle Game in week one is a perfect example.
Of it they've just made the plays when they've had
to make the plays because, generally speaking if you just
looked across the board and you didn't look at, their
record you wouldn't think they were having a very.
Speaker 2 (45:50):
Good season that's the Voice Of John Long Pro, Football
Wired John lemon leash From the barry's always a Guest
Of vian ferness at this time on ninety three POINT,
three kjrfm what is up With The brandon? Nyuk situation
guy just walks away from. His job is he going
to play in? It all Could the seahawks possibly see
him in week eighteen and he comes back for the
most important games or that ship? Is sailed?
Speaker 12 (46:12):
Come on they put him on the reserve. Left squad
and we were Talking To kyle shanahan the other Day
and kyle said he hadn't seen him in. A month
and you Know This kyle shanahan is maybe the most player.
FRIENDLY coach i mean there's a number. Of THEM and
I know mike McDonald. IS too I Heard jason meyers
the other day talk. ABOUT it i mean. He is
he has got the back of, his players and he's
(46:33):
had the Back Of. Brandon ayuk and for those who
don't know, the story he was on his Way to
pittsburgh two years ago when they weren't gonna give him
contract and they were on the Phone with Pittsburgh And.
Kyle shannan this is literally and he talked, about it
spread it up the stairs and said don't, trade him and,
they didn't and they kept Him on kyle's Word because
kyle had a great relationship. With him but the bottom,
LINE is i don't know what Happened because i've talked
(46:53):
to the guy a ton of times when he, was
young and he was a great guy and had a.
Great PERSONALITY and i don't know where. IT flipped i.
Really don't but he takes the social, media constantly rips.
The organization they give him a ton, of money he.
GETS hurt i don't see where from the forty nine,
ers standpoint things. Went Wrong but brandon and he clearly
doesn't want to, be there and he just. Stopped going
(47:13):
it's like if you just stopped going. To work that's
what he did about a, month ago And so kyle
was asked. About it they put him on that, reserve
list a left, squad List and kyle was asked. About
It and kyle. Wasn't malicious He was he was actually
trying to go the other way. With it he, just,
SAID look i haven't seen the kind of month and
even though you have a, knee injury clearly they thought
he'd be back. By now he should have been rehabbing.
Speaker 2 (47:32):
By now.
Speaker 12 (47:34):
He's not he hasn't been in. The facility he was
lifting and then leaving before the players. Got there but
he is one hundred percent played his last down as
a forty, nine ER and i wouldn't be surprised he
wanted to Play with Jane and Daniels in Washington And,
adam peters their assistant general manager who helped. DRAFT him
i would imagine he might.
Speaker 2 (47:51):
GO there i.
Speaker 12 (47:52):
Don't know, you know they got a. Huge need they
Just paid terry McLaurin And then niner's already eating a
ton of money and there need a ton of Money when,
brandon leaves but he has played his last down as
a forty.
Speaker 2 (48:01):
Nine er he's only one year into that four year
one hundred and twenty. Million dollars he got seventy six.
Million guaranteed he got forty five million guaranteed, at signing
so he can. Walk away he has forty five million
dollars in, the bank which is why he can afford
to not show up. To work but can you trade, That,
CONTRACT john, i mean that's. Taking on he's signed till
(48:24):
twenty twenty eight for twenty twenty.
Speaker 12 (48:25):
Eight plus it's a huge hit For, the niners and
they're near one hundred million dollars in dead cap. RIGHT
now i mean they just, you know devote they're paying
money to you and go on down, the Line, hard grave,
et cetera. Et cetera they're still paying arms set from.
YEARS ago i mean they decided to take the hit.
This year they thought they could work things up. WITH
iyuk i was told by very reliable sources he physically
(48:49):
could have been back by the middle of. The season
they were thinking, week seven, week eight and he just
wasn't doing. The rehab he wasn't working, at it and
he finally just stopped showing up. To work but like,
YOU said i don't know how they're going to, do
it because they're going to take another big hit and
it's going, to be, you know auditioned, by subtraction the
way the forty nine ers look. At it, but again,
Moving Forward john jennings is a free agent and they
didn't want to. Pay Him ricky pearsall is, constantly hurt
(49:10):
and even though he had a nice week last week
six or, ninety six he REAGGRAVATED a. Pcl INJURY so
i don't know how effective or if he's gonna play,
this weekend. Let alone, you know we're looking At the
seahawks a couple of weeks. FROM now i don't know
if he's. Gonna play so now you're looking at a
Guy Like. Kendrick bourne That's what i'm, talking about is
you're looking at this team going how are? They surviving
because they thought they'd HAVE. A u pearsall has been
(49:31):
mostly out of, the lineup even though he had a
nice week. Last week in, long term at the, receiver
position they have to dip back in and go get another.
Wide receiver they probably do man that.
Speaker 2 (49:46):
Hundred twe if he just won't, Show, up okay So
the seahawks won't have him in. Week eighteen According to
joe roll here Hopefully And, john lennon he's From The,
bay area shifting gears real quick before. We go college
football playoffs, Begin tomorrow and OF course i saw you
had written last Week About notre dame winding. And, complaining
yeah first, of all do You Think notre dame should be?
(50:08):
In it and if you could fix, college football which
let's not even debate it or broken it's we didn't
have to. Debate that but how how do we fix
what is just broken? RIGHT now i mean from the,
bowl games to, the money to the, coaching leaves to
players having seven schools in, eight years thirty two year.
OLD seniors, i mean where's? It en how does? IT
(50:32):
stop I, guess god.
Speaker 8 (50:34):
There's that that's a, whole.
Speaker 12 (50:35):
Hour right but but the first thing you gotta do
is you got to change. The timing as far as
the coaching be able, to lead there's no. OTHER sport
I Think rick portina was the first one to come up,
with IT and i don't want to give, him CREDIT
so i should have just, stole it not given. Him Credit.
Speaker 13 (50:46):
But.
Speaker 12 (50:47):
RICK yeah, I mean, i mean, you know link people
Can Hate lane kivan on, a wan but he should
Be Coaching, old miss not GOING to lsu at, this
point and, you know all these all these different things
going on and the, You know jetfish possibly Going to
michigan and all. THESE things, I mean i know there's,
season's over but still it's, you know wait till the
end of. The year from a, timing standpoint THEY have
(51:08):
i don't, YOU know i don't have the answer, to
this but nil Is The. Wild west guys Like your rosenhouth,
love it but they've got to find a way, To,
say okay, hang on there's got.
Speaker 2 (51:16):
To be some rules.
Speaker 12 (51:16):
OR regulations, i mean maybe not, a ton. BUT something,
i mean, right now it is Clearly The. Wild west
and then as far as the ball, system is Because
Should notre dame, Be in i'm surprised. They're not and
the thing that's so funny about them wanting so much
is they've gotten so much favor and they're gonna get
favor again next year because it's going to be top
twelve and they're. AUTOMATICALLY in i. Get it it's. About
eyeballs i'm pretty surprised they didn't get in just from,
(51:37):
that standpoint but to take your ball and, GO home
i just that's the part that really irks me is
but we're NOT gonna i, Wrote this we're not gonna
miss Out On. Notre dame it's gonna be a few
points here there. Or whatever but the but teaching your
kids that. That's in and here's my, Biggest, Surprise greg
can you. Know this the biggest thing that coaches talk
about as Far as bowl game, is concerned is they
(51:57):
get a month extra practice and they get young and
if you want to, OPT out, i mean that's a.
Big mess and we would go on down the line
of about ten different things that are. A MESS but
i am a bit surprised that their ego is brew
such to a level that they didn't at least play
in a ball game so they could get a month more,
of practice because that's what most coaches, talk about if
they're not as concerned about the ball game as they
are getting another month with.
Speaker 2 (52:18):
Their. Kids right, of, course nowadays most of those kids
won't even play in, that ballgame or at least some
of their best players won't even play in that ball
game or won't even be on.
Speaker 12 (52:25):
THE team, i mean think about how many questions. THERE are, i,
mean seriously we could sit and we could we could
take them one, by one and there's probably ten, major
questions and yet no one's, in charge, you know like
you can't point to anybody and say this person needs to.
Speaker 8 (52:38):
Fix, it yeah we need to.
Speaker 12 (52:39):
Fix it who even do we turn to to? FIX it,
i mean it's such. A mess it's such.
Speaker 2 (52:44):
A mess the, college presidents, Of course john are the
ones that MAKE the. Ncaa legislation everyone THINKS the ncaa
is an Entity, above god, but no it's the college
presidents that MAKE the ncaa and make the rules of
the ncitate Plays By army navy is the last college
proved true College, foot yeah so let me ask you,
real quick since we're on college football close, to home
could you envision Cal, and stanford especially now that cows
(53:07):
pretty much starting over And extra stanford is that matter
with another? New coach could you see them going back
to the NEWLY formed pac Twelve At washington State And
oregon state of form BECAUSE this acc is just so impractical,
for them.
Speaker 12 (53:20):
NO question, i mean especially when you Look. At stanford
i've got, FAMILY members, i know this is hard, to
believe but that actually we're in track and Field that
stanford believe me that the apple fell very far from
the tree on. That ONE but i mean it's not
only football where it's complete joke and everything else where
they play these games where, you're like why?
Speaker 2 (53:39):
Are they where?
Speaker 12 (53:39):
Are they you know where they are on. The MAP
but i mean it's all the other, sports too where,
it's like are you? Kidding me They can't wednesday it's,
a joke and you have to actually go to Class.
At STANFORD so, i mean the reality is this is
a short. TERM thing i don't know if it is across. The,
board again this is another thing that we can, get
into the proximity and all the things that they've messed.
(54:01):
Up HERE but i would imagine that most teams out
Of the pac twelve it used to be In the
pac twelve outside Of. Maybe Oregon arizona state did win
last year In the. Big TWELVE but, i mean if
they had it to do, OVER again i know the money,
is very, very tempting but it's created such a MESS
that i can't believe that they would they would want
to continue to. Do this, so yeah to answer, your
question in a. LONG form I Think cal stafford absolutely
(54:23):
going TO the acc was the, worst thing and the
buzz around here is and we don't have the buzz
of college sports like you do unfortunately. Up There but
Call and stafford absolutely regret their decision to go to THE.
A Cec and i'm sure any opportunity if they could
at least make it somewhat, financially work they would love
to be closer.
Speaker 2 (54:40):
To, home unfortunately the television networks to decide how. Viable, That,
YEAH john i. APPRECIATE you i hope you have a.
Happy holidays it's great to talk to you, You too thank.

From The Virginia Mason athletic Center at. Seahawks Headquarters, julian
(55:22):
Love The pro. BOWL safety i caught up with. Him
yesterday he was pretty insightful on What the rams bring
that are different than anybody else IN. The nfl but
There the seahawks have somebody they think to can Counter
what sean McVay has been doing with three tight Ends In.
Los Angeles Is. Julian love you'll hear from him next
live From The Virginia Mason athletics center on ninety three POINT.
Three kjrfm, Welcome Back drake Build The news tribune out
(55:55):
here At the seahawks Headquarters, in renton two days before
THE Big nfc west showed Im Against Los. Angeles rams
yesterday had a chance to Talk To julian love outside the.
Locker room he was with a couple of reporters in
me and we talked about this big Matchup in sean
McVay and how he has changed his offense This season
thursday Night's game Seahawks. And Rams julian love talking about that.
Speaker 10 (56:16):
Now because of the short turnaround in the intricac season
Of the.
Speaker 2 (56:18):
Rams offense what's the challenge of downloading your brain From
the colts To the.
Speaker 13 (56:23):
RAMS quickly, I mean i would say the challenge is
is like every hour is like critical from the really
right for the Game. Till thursday, so today guys hard
than doing actually doing more literally after. The game yesterday
guys are the facility getting in, The, tubs yeah last
night after, the game and so some stuff like you
(56:44):
don't typically see just because we understand the importance of
one recovering kind of turning. It around, then yeah just
getting piles Into this, rams team it.
Speaker 14 (56:53):
Really is it is a team see two times, a
year and it's a, short week so you can only
do so, Much anyway like is it really that much
to kind have to switch like or is it kind
of a team, you know and it's with it being a,
division arrival maybe not the biggest challenge.
Speaker 10 (57:06):
To you mentally get ready.
Speaker 13 (57:07):
For, them yeah for, a team, you know it's like
you kind of understand like, THE style i guess you,
could say but, you know, the team Like, the rams
they just they switch it up and present different things,
each week especially, their offense AND so i mean, that
stuff what are we gonna do? This week and you,
know what it's all our plan of attack, and yeah
so it's always high in The mist. Division games but
obviously the moment of, this season.
Speaker 10 (57:27):
This is a is a big building left.
Speaker 15 (57:29):
Of that they've ran a lot more thirteen personnel this
year and they are really leaning into.
Speaker 10 (57:33):
It now And if davante can't Play, on thursday and.
Speaker 15 (57:37):
How much do you have to balance that with what
you've Seen from sean mcvade to pass where they've been,
eleven heavy and it seems like he just kind of
can pivot to whatever direction he wants in terms of running.
Speaker 10 (57:47):
THEIR offense, i mean it seems like he's on the
cutting edge of.
Speaker 13 (57:50):
Everything offense he's passed, you know, you, know uh five to,
eight years, you know and right now they're playing the
game of. The thirteen you'll see other teams now then
and the next year that you have to Play the
game of thirteen take a notes. From him but it
just kind of he works with his personnel. Right Now
obviously kobe's playing. Really well the two tight ends are playing.
(58:11):
With well the rookie, they like it's a skillful, tight
end and so they're just trying to present issues. Right
now as the league's, getting smaller.
Speaker 10 (58:19):
They go back to being, you.
Speaker 2 (58:20):
Know.
Speaker 10 (58:20):
Big uh it's it's interesting to see and the kind.
Speaker 13 (58:24):
Of, you know dissect as our plan of attack for,
you know the, big personnel especially with, you know.
Speaker 10 (58:30):
Seventeen down do you see.
Speaker 15 (58:32):
That being a key storyline going, to this that you've
got a defensive coach that's kind.
Speaker 10 (58:36):
Of at the, cutting edge and then and then you
got an.
Speaker 15 (58:38):
Offensive coach and they've been a month since the last
time they've got to go against, each other three days
for them to try to frank and STACK and.
Speaker 13 (58:45):
I BET you i already know their staff. Are staff,
it's yeah it's gonna be a battle of. The mines
but then, you know first, EVERY week I just i
feel like the players just kind of be.
Speaker 10 (58:57):
Like and just give us, A call we'll line up
and we'll.
Speaker 13 (59:01):
Just execute, you know we we're, talented enough we work,
hard enough like we can, improvise enough, you know as
much as You know mike is really good at.
Speaker 2 (59:09):
Getty and like.
Speaker 13 (59:09):
Perfect calls, you know for games, like this it's just
gonna be a battle, of will battle details about, some
discipline and so that's kind.
Speaker 2 (59:15):
Of how we. Take it.
Speaker 13 (59:18):
You guys have in the, back end Whether There's nick
spoon and you like as you can play a bunch of.
Speaker 14 (59:22):
Different, sposible yeah how much you think that helps you
against an offense that you talked about can do all these.
Speaker 10 (59:26):
Different things so that has been a weapon.
Speaker 13 (59:28):
All year, you know we're a team, that's, like okay
we have hid You, know nickel, you know, two corners.
Two safeties, YOU know i think with the the scale
of and the Talent, of nick you memory in in, spoon.
Speaker 2 (59:42):
Like they can do.
Speaker 10 (59:43):
So much they.
Speaker 13 (59:43):
Can blitz nick can PLAY d m. Pretty, much uh
you can, Play safety nickel corner. Or whatever h he,
you know he has decide to do it All and
spoons has a talent to do it all and so
prevent it allows us to Be. MULTIPLE no i think
has been the story kind of love. The season so
this game might, being hog might being. Big people nick,
you know might be playing. A linebacker this week is all.
(01:00:06):
More cover we're gonna have, you know Spoon in nick
more AS the dB than man and stuff.
Speaker 10 (01:00:10):
Like that and, SO yeah i think that's that's. Our
strength that's been our. Checkerball season how do you how
do you appos kind of the stakes of the game
and what's kind of on the line for? THIS week
I think i, DON'T know i gonna hear every sort
of angle. Of it, this week you're gonna hear this is.
Speaker 13 (01:00:26):
Another game you're gonna hear the This is, december football
it's in playoff football type. OF thing i think we
just have my mindset is, all right let's let's say
what it is. Right now we're fighting for the number
one seeds IN. The nfc there's a lot of power,
in that Especially being seattle with a great. Home stadium
that's just where. We are we have a shot to.
Do that and it's a team that we've seen and
(01:00:48):
we lost to in. The past we didn't play our,
cleanest football still was close that we just got to
go out and. Just execute like you can appreciate, the
hype you can, you know turn out to hide, from
it just space. Ahead on that's kind of how my,
approach is embrace. The Moment but i'm interested see kind
Of what Mike's what mike's lesson.
Speaker 10 (01:01:08):
Is uh or his u upillar is for, the week
but able to.
Speaker 6 (01:01:11):
Get there going back to what, you said the players
have to have mindset.
Speaker 7 (01:01:14):
All along just tell us what the play is and
can you talk about how important you have that so
you can embrace.
Speaker 2 (01:01:21):
The moment in the biggest. Game.
Speaker 13 (01:01:22):
Instead, YEAH no i mean that's just the swagger and
the mindset of the players on. The team, you know
the coaches have a swagger in the, mindset Too and
mike wants to give us the best shot to execute
and knock out every.
Speaker 10 (01:01:35):
Single play same Thing.
Speaker 13 (01:01:37):
With clint and then players have a have a ego to,
too much, solls like give me whatever the, Call is
i'm gonna go a line up. And execute and so
it's a great combo to have because, You know i've
been on some teams that we didn't have the guys
who can line up and do whatever play man and
plays don't like we have the capabilities do. All that it's,
all right let's just line up in, our best get our.
Cleat set they're not gonna try to allow us.
Speaker 2 (01:01:58):
To get our.
Speaker 13 (01:01:58):
Feet set are gonna, motion shift, quicks now all the
things to not let us be out.
Speaker 10 (01:02:03):
Of best and so's a lot of the play.
Speaker 7 (01:02:05):
With the balance of, being confident the balance of being
confident confident on a certain play and yet understand you
have to the next.
Speaker 10 (01:02:13):
PLAYING mentality i think it's just the game.
Speaker 13 (01:02:16):
Of football, you know each player trying to knock out
and then you line up again no matter. WHAT happens
i think this pass game was a great example. Of that,
you know whatever happens, on offense we just line up,
on defense try to make the most of. Each, play
uh and when we get, a shot we just know
we're gonna we're gonna. Finish it we just had. A,
play yeah what what stood out to you about the
first Matchup for?
Speaker 6 (01:02:34):
Chain first?
Speaker 10 (01:02:36):
ON defense i think we.
Speaker 13 (01:02:37):
STARTED slow i think uh kind of, you know the
even that game has some hype, to it obviously with
two towns. Of teams we started slow and we were
just kind of a little lot of character early in.
That game then we settled in and then we knocked.
It out we, felt like man for, a man we
feel like we can compete with. These guys, you know
there are really dynamic offense in, this league but we're
a really. Dynamic defense and so that's kind of the.
(01:02:59):
Takeaway defense, but like let's settle, in quicker start much
faster than we did, last time and just keep.
Speaker 15 (01:03:06):
Keep swarning you guys had a plane coming in when
he came off in. A reserve just kind of get
pitched count. Play, snaps yesterday you feel, like now going
into this Game, on thursday where you're on the cups
of being able to play every snap or you still
think the debts of process that.
Speaker 13 (01:03:19):
You're going that's, the hope, For sure that's definitely. THE
hope I gotta i'm just talk to the coach a,
little Bit but i'm just. Ast soldier, but uh, YOU
know I love i love. THE game i love the moments.
Speaker 6 (01:03:32):
Like this uh.
Speaker 13 (01:03:35):
It's, YOU know i like to compete and so, OH
yeah i want to be out there every, single play
AND so i got to see what, these guys the
training staff.
Speaker 10 (01:03:41):
And, Uh oh mike's.
Speaker 13 (01:03:42):
Plan is, BUT yeah I mean I think i've been
ramping up pretty WELL and i think it's been, feeling.
Speaker 10 (01:03:46):
Good Thankfully so i'm excited to get out there and
go as a as A.
Speaker 13 (01:03:50):
Fellow notre, dame guy which has been kind of been

That's the, Chicago Kid. Notre dame that's.
Speaker 13 (01:04:00):

Speaker 2 (01:04:33):
Be Successful That's julian love talking Yesterday at. Seahawks headquarters
really nailing the key to this game within A game,
thursday night the use of the thirteen personnel By the
rams And the seahawks Counter with mike McDonald and the
defense to. It, up next another guy who's kind of
interested in The, Game Thursday Dave. Softy maller we'll talk
with him heading into his show from three. To seven
up next From The Virginia Mason Athletics center live on
(01:04:55):
ninety three point THREE. kJ rfm Welcome Back Greg Bell
news tribute in free infnest today and tomorrow At The
(01:05:16):
Virginia Mason. Athletic center i'm camped here all week because
that's Where the seahawks are preparing to play their biggest
game of the season so far Against The rams thursday
night At. The lumanfield it's gonna. Be win he's gonna
be raining to eleven and. Three teams just Talk To
sam darnold Here at seahawks headquarters today and he's talking
About the rams defense being so good at marrying their
(01:05:37):
pressures with their coverage and how smart their defensive. Backs
are talking About the seahawks needing to get their third
down and red zone. Offense going and that's to say.
The LEAST dave, softi mal we are probably gonna be
watching the game. With somebody i'll, be, THERE baby i will.
Be there cannot wait to get There on.
Speaker 16 (01:05:53):
Thursday night you mentioned that you're AT the vMac because
that's Where the, seahawks practice so you kind of have to, be.
There Right, so yeah what if they announced yesterday we're
moving Operations, To, ANNAPOLIS, Maryland.
Speaker 2 (01:06:05):
Nop, i'd, say yeah you get a. New person.
Speaker 6 (01:06:07):
Have that THAT'S why, I, thought Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:06:09):
Although annapolis is a more picturesque Bot Than, west.
Speaker 16 (01:06:11):
Point but you're not totally dedicated to Covering the hawks
as long as. They're, not yeah what happened to your Boys?
Speaker 2 (01:06:17):
On?
Speaker 9 (01:06:17):
Saturday man they had him and.
Speaker 2 (01:06:20):
Their Defense the army defense was Shutting down navy like
nobody else In the navy schedule had and THEN the
i can't blame. The kid i'm standing on the sideline
looking at this guy at the, defensive end who could?
Pick it all you had to do is fall in
a fumble in the red inside the five yard line
and they probably win. That, game yeah they're leaning sixteen
ten and he tried to scoop it up and run
(01:06:41):
ninety seven yards. With it he would have been a
cadetic mortal had he. Done, That YEAH so i.
Speaker 16 (01:06:45):
Get it a lot, of, pressure man when you have
an entire military uh, you, know background an entire military presence,
behind you waiting on every breath to see. What HAPPENED
so i. Get it i'd love to get out there
for one of. Those games where of? The, Days MAN
but i.
Speaker 9 (01:07:01):
Don't know what do you think On? On thursday we
asked you on, THE air i think it.
Speaker 16 (01:07:06):
WAS yesterday i know he hates, doing prediction so you know,
he'll uh he'll get a, chance to, you know talk
about this Again before. Thursday's game but we asked him,
flat out just kind of, you know back to, the
wall gun to, your head who Wins? On thursday and, he,
said well there's probably a Reason the rams are favored
right right now by a point and, a half, you
know to win. This Game the hawks aren't even getting
the obligatory three. At HOME so, i mean if you had,
(01:07:27):
TO bet i don't know if you lost. The game
if you if you made, A, prediction greg and if
you lost the Game on thursday night you had the,
wrong prediction you got, to Say go Navy.
Speaker 9 (01:07:37):
Beat army who are you picking To win? Thursday night
backs Against?
Speaker 2 (01:07:41):
The wall? YOU know i, COME on I think mike
McDonald's got. SEAN McVay i think look at the two
throw the v game Out, in, january, right, yes, yes
yes let's look at the two other games at McVeigh
and McDonald played each other since mcveigh's McDonald's been. The
coach they had one offensive touchdown In that november Game
(01:08:01):
at lumenfield in regulation right and the one hundred and
three yard interception Returned to smith gave to Pick. To
kitchens and then in La and englewood, Last month sam
donald throws. Four interceptions two of The three rams drives
were four yards and twenty. Three Yards the rams had
one drive across midfield for a touchdown seventy. Four yards
(01:08:22):
it was in the early in the fourth quarter with
the parkins. And touchdown so you can make the case
and it's pausible That the rams have only scored two
drive the field touchdowns in two full games against.
Speaker 16 (01:08:33):
McDonald's defense yet in the two games that, really mattered
they lost. Right right they lost the game here are
there this year and lost the game in Overtime in seattle.
Speaker 9 (01:08:44):
Last YEAR so, I.
Speaker 2 (01:08:46):
Mean i Think the seahawks win if just donald can't
turn the. Ball, over yeah that's. The key they've got
A super bowl defense if their quarterback doesn't turn the, right.
Speaker 16 (01:08:54):
Well and that's that's kind of the problem for this
game is That the hawks are very bad at give
the ball away And the rams are very good at
taking the, ball, Away right so that is not a
great combination for the Game on. Thursday night this is
kind of it's kind of for me guys like starting to.
Take on it's starting to morph into like a, college
game Like AN oregon u dub game Or An apple
(01:09:16):
cup Or a michigan game, or whatever where the more
you talk, about it the longer, you wait the more
you change your mind and what you think is going.
To happen and it's like paralysis, By, analysis like can
we just get off, The air let's just cancel the
next two days where The SHOW'S can i and wake
me up at Five fifteen thursday Night because i'm already
getting tired of talking? About, it, Right well i'm sure
(01:09:39):
the audience would love to just cancel the next. TWO days,
i mean what the hell do we have? To offer
just get us to five point Fifteen on thursday night
so we can see. What, happens because let's, face it
this is a this is a much More Needed it's
it's obviously big for, both teams but For the seahawks divisional,
title hopes it's way bigger for Them on thursday than
it is for the ramsh, lose this they're done, pretty.
Speaker 2 (01:10:01):
Much right they would Need the rams to, lose, twice.
Speaker 9 (01:10:04):
Correct after Atlanta. And, Arizona, right yeah their team could
beat Those and.
Speaker 16 (01:10:09):
I'm not even Convinced the hawks went out in the
final two games of The year Carolina And.
Speaker 9 (01:10:13):
San, FRANCISCO right i.
Speaker 2 (01:10:14):
Could totally See the seahawks Day winnings thursday night and
losing Down In. Santa, clara.
Speaker 9 (01:10:21):
Well And then carolina is still fighting for a.
Speaker 16 (01:10:23):
DIVISION championship i mean they had a bad loss To
the saints over the, weekend obviously so who do? They
have Who does carolina have? This weekend they are wow
at Home. Against tampa so that's LIKE The nfc south, championship,
game right.
Speaker 9 (01:10:37):
Which is the way it, should be don't?
Speaker 6 (01:10:38):
You?
Speaker 2 (01:10:38):
THINK yeah i love THAT the nfl does schedule it. That,
way yeah division games at. The, END honestly i Think
