What If?... The Seahawks Can 'Prove It' Against the Undefeated Niners
Sea Hawkers Podcast
The Seattle Seahawks host the San Francisco 49ers this Sunday, and this one's a big game! The Niners are undefeated. Our Seahawks are the champs. So who proves it? We go through six "prove it" questions on this week's show. Can our run game be a positive influence? Can our pass rush get home against that top-ranked O-line? Who still has a lot to prove? What does Sam Darnold need to improve? Which pass-catching group is the best in the game? And how do our DBs make the Brock Purdy MVP talk look a little presumptive? Finally, we read your wishes from the Flock, make our own (a Devon Witherspoon...

509: Seahawks Running Back Panic, 49ers Rolling Into Seattle on Cloud Nine
Sea Hawkers Podcast
The Seattle Seahawks host the San Francisco 49ers this week, and we can't wait to destroy the delusion that is fueling the Niners fanbase. Are the Niners really that good? Or have they just feasted on a soft schedule? We break it all down. Our offense is still near the bottom of the league on third down, there's real running back panic after the Jadarian Price injury and the Joe Mixon attempted signing, and it appears that letting Kenneth Walker walk was a mistake. Have you heard that Brock Purdy hasn't been sacked yet? There's a reason for it that we get into and it's not likely to remain...

3 IN, 3 OUT: Do the Seahawks Have a Fleury Problem?
Sea Hawkers Podcast
The Seattle Seahawks beat the Los Angeles Chargers 30-23 to move to 3-1, but a bunch of you are already asking the same question: do we have a Brian Fleury problem? So we went to the tape. Thirty points. Three games in a row. Is that really a problem? On offense our wide zone looked great when it was clicking, Defensively, Drake Thomas played football exactly the way we like to watch it, and on special teams Jason Myers had a couple of kicks that had us fuming. Add in a Nehemiah Pritchett pass breakup, a preview of what life without Leonard Williams would look like, and one Sam Darnold...

A Flagtastic Finish: Seahawks Survive the Flags in a Sloppy Game
Sea Hawkers Podcast
The Seattle Seahawks offense was scoreless in the fourth quarter as the defense gave up 10 points to make it an all-to-close finish against the Los Angeles Chargers. The 30-23 victory moves the Seahawks to 3-1 ahead of next week's divisional matchup with the undefeated San Francisco 49ers. We go through Sam Darnold's game versus the Chargers defense, some of the throws he missed and what we saw from the interception that started his day. Despite the early turnover, it was three turnovers by the Seahawks defense after that moment that helped swing the game in Seattle's favor, particularly the...

A 2-1 Seattle Seahawks team welcomes in a reeling, 0-3 opponent in the Los Angeles Chargers, and the pregame news-and-notes breakdown digs into an injury question for the Seahawks' top running back. The health picture then flips to the visitors, who are banged up at receiver, tight end, and in the secondary heading into the trip up the coast. The back half breaks out a full card of betting picks, built around a run-pass balance debate, a banged-up pass-catcher prop, a receiver-usage tension between two targets, and a long-shot touchdown-scorer parlay.

What If?... Lightning Has Already Struck Our Seahawks
Sea Hawkers Podcast
A reeling, 0-3 opponent comes to town, and six lightning-themed questions dig into whether that slide is about to continue for the Los Angeles Chargers. "Previously with the Protector" focuses on a breakdown of last week's sloppy, turnover-plagued loss, before shifting into a full preview of a struggling offense that has real talent but can't put it together. A record-setting receiver's chances of staying hot gets a close look, along with the health of a key safety and whether a run game built around a rookie back can finally break out for a big day. A rapid-fire lightning round covers matchup...

508: Run Game Woes, JSN Making History, and a Chargers Preview
Sea Hawkers Podcast
The Seahawks are 2-1 heading into Week 4, and coming off the loss head coach Mike Macdonald walked into the building this week and said "you can feel the resolve." JSN is chasing Calvin Johnson's all-time receiving record, Brian Fluery is trying to find his way in the red zone, and Julian Love will hopefully be back in the lineup this week. The preview then shifts to a struggling 0-3 opponent, digging into their beat-up offensive line, an underwhelming receiver room, and a pass rush anchored by two very different players. A wild Sunday around the rest of the league gets covered too, including...

3 IN, 3 OUT: Six Seahawks Conversations That Actually Matter
Sea Hawkers Podcast
The Seahawks dropped a very tough loss to the home Commanders and the blame going round and round like a carousel. We work through every big conversation swirling around the Seahawks after the loss. Topics range from Jadarian Price's snap share and the special-teams kickoff-coverage issues, to a debate over Tory Horton versus Rashid Shaheed's roles. We also get into what appeared to be a stubborn tendency to run right, a red-zone play-calling gripe that's been building for weeks, and what's driving the Sam Darnold versus Drew Lock conversation. We also dig into the defense allowing a thousand...

Commanders Outsmart Seattle: Seahawks Postgame Reaction
Sea Hawkers Podcast
It was a tough one to swallow. The Seahawks drop their first game since dropping their first game to the Rams last season, falling 33-31 on the road to the Washington Commanders. We break it all down live from the offensive line struggles, a costly Jadarian Price fumble, and a heated debate over the fourth-down decision that still has us going back and forth by the end of the show. Sam Darnold's two interceptions get a full breakdown, along with some pointed criticism of Seattle's own defensive play-calling for going too conservative. We also go over a couple calls that we think helped to...

Injury news headlines this week's Saturday show with Seahawks safety Julian Love showing up with a calf injury. The depth of the safety room is going to be tested even more!

info_outlineIt's time for the annual assessment of our Seattle Seahawks before we head into the regular season. This first game against the Atlanta Falcons is coming up in less than three weeks! We talk about the areas of the team that improved the most in the offseason, the areas that we feel still need improvement, and at least one issue from 2019 that hasn't been talked about enough for how big of a problem it was for the team last season.
On offense, will the Seahawks "Let Russ Cook" or will Pete Carroll shift to a more conservative approach and adopt the "Hammer the Rock" philosophy? Without preseason games, we can only go off the clues we've been given by some of the transactions. We can also go off some of the clues through short video releases to see how the offensive line is shaping up, but we also have to consider the competition when hyping up our own players.
The offseason hype is in full swing when it comes to players like Tyler Lockett, DK Metcalf, Phillip Dorsett, and Travis "TD" Homer. The blame for the hype goes all the way to the top. By "the top" we mean it goes even beyond Pete Carroll or even the NFL.
