Sea Hawkers Podcast
The NFC Championship is just days away and we've got a break down of all the major news, game notes, and key matchups as Seattle prepares to take on the Rams.

The flock weighs in on what they expect from K9 with Zach Charbonnet sidelined for the rest of the season.

The Seattle Seahawks are preparing for the NFC Championship against the rival Los Angeles Rams. We kick the show off with some thoughts on the win against San Fran, highlighting the defensive dominance, complete with an in-stadium experience that was like nothing else. Matt Stafford has struggled in recent weeks. What are teams doing to put him under pressure and are there other factors that might be leading to his issues the last couple weeks? In the second half of the show, we commend John Schneider for earning Executive of the Year and talk about some of the key moves that led to the...

Our Seahawks preview show takes a look into the NFC Championship clash against the NFC West division rivals Los Angeles Rams. We look back at the Rams performance against the Bears before getting into some of the key matchups. What strategic advantages does Seattle hold over the Rams? What should Seahawks fans be most concerned about when it comes to this Rams team. With Zach Charbonnet out this week, we run through a list of players (other than Kenneth Walker) who may need to step up for Seattle. We close the show with two players we'd like to see have big games in the NFC Championship to...

The Seattle Seahawks dominated the San Francisco 49ers from start to finish. From the first play kick return touchdown by Rashid Shaheed to the relentless dominance by the Seahawks' defense, every moment of this game showcased why Seattle is a Super Bowl contender. We discuss how the defense, led by performances from Leonard Williams and DeMarcus Lawrence, shut down San Francisco, holding them to just nine total points over two games. We highlight the efficiency of Sam Darnold, the rushing performance of Kenneth Walker III, and talk about the electric atmosphere at Lumen Field that undoubtedly...

The Seattle Seahawks and San Francisco 49ers are back at it again -- now in the divisional round. Niners fans are somehow confident again, despite a narrow win over the Eagles. Is it because they think Kyle Shanahan rediscovered his good playbook? Or is it because they think Sam Darnold has already lost this game due to a minor injury? Maybe they've already forgotten they've been blaming an electromagnetic substation for team injuries. We take a look at the matchups on both sides and what has changed since Week 18. Trent Williams was back in the lineup against the Eagles, but the Niners lost...

The 49ers moved on and now must face our Seahawks yet again. With each new matchup, the stakes have been higher and higher. We're examining the 49ers reaction to their win in Philly, injury news and updates, and do Vegas oddsmakers know something about this matchup that we don't? As of posting this show, we now know that it will be a 5pm PT start time on Saturday. We discussed whether there would be any added benefit to an evening game. Maybe it was scheduled later to appease Kyle Shanahan since he was already crying about a possible Saturday start time in the Niners postgame press conference...

Our Seattle Seahawks enter the playoffs with a number of players who could become unexpected postseason heroes -- guys who could deliver outsized performances when it matters most. Is there a player on defense who could shadow Rams receiver Puka Nacua? Derek Hall's disruptive presence on the defensive line, despite limited snaps, positions him for a playoff breakout with his speed-to-power rush creating havoc even when sacks don't materialize. Cooper Kupp's regular season numbers don't tell the full story of his impact, but could finally deliver the red zone production Seattle envisioned. We...
info_outlineIt was a big weekend for Seahawks news ahead of the Week 1 matchup with the Atlanta Falcons. On Saturday, the team released its 53-man roster which highlighted the strengths and shortcomings we've been discussing a lot in the offseason. Now it's official-the defensive line has some big question marks. The next day, we learned that Jadeveon Clowney would not be returning to Seattle. Although reports showed that offers made to Clowney were valued at the range of the contract he ultimately signed, he is going back to the AFC to play in the division of his former team.
To kick off the season, the Seahawks will take on the Atlanta Falcons. Matt Ryan was down with an injury last season and even though Seattle had a huge halftime lead, it ended up disappearing toward the fourth quarter. Are we going to see the Seahawks employ a similar strategy this season with their offense to try and go up big early against teams? Perhaps giving up more than 450 yards in the air to Matt Schaub last season was enough to emphasize the importance of improving depth in the secondary in the offseason.
We close out the first half of the show talking about areas of the roster that could come back to bite the team by choosing to focus on depth and familiarity with the team rather than going after higher priced talent.
In the second half of the show, we get a little pushback from one of our newest members of the flock on the pancakes versus waffles debate. We learn about how creative gender reveals need to consider temperature and climate in their decision making, and for people who pump gas and don't move their car before going into the store. Better at life honors go to Dan for helping Adam with trying to get internet in the woods and to the Seahawks for getting through training camp and testing virus free.
