Seahawks Playoff Hopes Are Now in Peril

Sea Hawkers Podcast: for Seattle Seahawks fans

Another tough week for Seattle Seahawks fans after our team lost to the Minnesota Vikings 27-24, putting any playoff hopes in serious jeopardy. We break down the game, and discuss how our Seahawks had a lead but couldn't hold onto it in the fourth quarter. Despite a promising comeback led by Geno Smith, the offense struggled with balance and timely penalties. Justin Jefferson torched the Seahawks defensive backs for two touchdowns, while DK Metcalf was held relatively in check by the Vikings defense. With the loss, the Seahawks playoff hopes now rest on the Arizona Cardinals being able to beat...

455: Seahawks Infuriating Packers Loss, Vikings Trap Game Ahead?

Sea Hawkers Podcast: for Seattle Seahawks fans

The Seahawks suffered an infuriating loss to the Packers on Sunday, but it did bring some clarity on changes that need to be made in the offseaon (if not sooner). We take a look at what went wrong with the team in their slow start and what kept them from coming back despite having the opportunity, in part thanks to the defense for bouncing back in the second half. However, the offense remained a disaster throughout, exacerbated by Geno Smith's injury and the decision to put Sam Howell into chucker mode . Looking ahead, we take a look at the upcoming game against the Minnesota Vikings....

Prime Time Pummeling: What We Learned From This Measuring Stick

Sea Hawkers Podcast: for Seattle Seahawks fans

The Seahawks suffered a tough loss to the Packers, falling 30-13 in a game that highlighted some of the strengths and weaknesses of the team. After quickly falling behind 14-0 in the first quarter, the game felt like a slow inevitability, despite moments of hope. The two touchdown lead came as a bit of a surprise, as Green Bay had only scored that quickly twice this season, especially considering how well the defense had been playing in recent weeks. Where does this leave Seattle's chances for the playoffs? Part of that answer will depend on the status of Geno Smith and how quickly he'll be...

454: Celebrating a Historic Seahawks Win, Packers Showdown Ahead

Sea Hawkers Podcast: for Seattle Seahawks fans

The Seahawks are sitting pretty at the top of the NFC West after a solid win over the Arizona Cardinals, and we are here to recap a milestone victory. Celebrating the Seahawks' 400th franchise win, we discuss the breakout game from Zach Charbonnet, who racked up nearly 200 yards on the ground and through the air. The defense continues to impress, with Ernest Jones making key plays to stifle James Conner and the Cardinals' offense. Looking ahead to Sunday night, we discuss the upcoming match against the Green Bay Packers, a team that poses a real test for Seattle's improving squad. Despite last...

Seahawks Feast on the Cardinals, Stay Atop NFC West

Sea Hawkers Podcast: for Seattle Seahawks fans

The Seahawks delivered a 30-18 win over the Cardinals on Sunday, fueled by a strong start with the help of back-to-back interceptions by Ernest Jones and Coby Bryant on defense. The offense capitalized off the turnovers to help set the tone for one of the team’s most complete performances of the year. Zach Charbonnet shined with 134 rushing yards, 59 receiving yards, and a touchdown, while Geno Smith’s efficient day under center included a touchdown to Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Are things starting to come together for offensive coordinator Ryan Grubb? Seattle are atop the NFC West, but the Rams...

453: Seahawks Special Teams Debacle, Prepare for 'Road Playoff' vs Cardinals

Sea Hawkers Podcast: for Seattle Seahawks fans

The Seattle Seahawks pulled off the comeback win against the New York Jets, but it wasn't pretty. The Seahawks got behind early in the first half against a struggling Jets team and despite the shaky start that was nearly disastrous, they were able to rally. Defensive Player of the Week Leonard Williams had several standout plays. He blocked an extra point, delivered a pick-six, and was a consistent threat in the trenches. Are the Seahawks starting to find their way on offense? There were some moments that offered glimmers of hope, particularly as the team shifted to playing more from under...

Big Cat Dominates to Overcome Seahawks Special Teams Chaos

Sea Hawkers Podcast: for Seattle Seahawks fans

In a game filled with bizarre moments (particularly on special teams) Leonard Williams emerged as the standout player of the game once again. Williams delivered a blocked extra point, a pick-six, and critical sacks to help secure a Seahawks victory. Mookie Alexander of Field Gulls joins the show to talk about the biggest comeback win of the Geno Smith era. However, Geno and the offense will need to clean up their act moving forward, particularly with their goal-to-go offense, where questionable play-calling and execution nearly kept the Seahawks from getting the comeback win. Looking...

452: Seahawks Defense Stifles Cardinals, Eyes on a Geno Smith Revenge Game

Sea Hawkers Podcast: for Seattle Seahawks fans

The Seahawks jumped back up to the top of the NFC West this past Sunday with a 16-6 win over the Arizona Cardinals. We dive into the game and talk about the defense's outstanding performance that held James Conner to under 10 rushing yards and contained Kyler Murray. Leonard Williams made a significant impact, and the pass rush as a whole is pressuring at a rate that is difficult to believe. It wasn't the prettiest win though. With only 10 offensive points, we examines the Seahawks offensive struggles and we get into some of the theories around why it may take some time for it to pull together...

The Seahawks Defense Continues to Smother the Opposition

Sea Hawkers Podcast: for Seattle Seahawks fans

The Seahawks defense shines bright as they defeat the Arizona Cardinals 16-6 in a hard-fought divisional matchup. Coming off a tough loss to the Rams, Seattle's defense stepped up in a big way, holding the Cardinals to just six points. The defensive line was relentless, pressuring Kyler Murray and shutting down the run game, limiting James Conner to a mere 8 yards on 7 carries. Geno Smith and the offense had their struggles, but a key screen pass to Jaxon Smith-Njigba set up the go-ahead score. Despite some offensive hiccups, the Seahawks' defense carried the day, with standout performances...

More Episodes

After a whirlwind of three games in eleven days, we take a breath to dissect what went wrong and what can be improved with our Seahawks moving forward. Looking back to the game against San Francisco, the impact of turnovers and missed opportunities doomed the team. However, there remains the potential for a bounce-back game against the Falcons, as Atlanta struggled to hold off the Carolina Panthers last week.

What can the team do to help build their identity amid some of the challenges posed by having a new coaching staff. We talk about which issues are fixable and how the team can regain its footing. Going up against the Falcons offers an opportunity for a balanced offensive approach and the potential for Geno Smith to have a standout game with a limited Falcons pass rush (as long as Grady Jarrett doesn't have his regular breakout game against Seattle). With a mini-bye providing extra time for adjustments, there's hope for a turnaround and a return to the win column.

In the second half of the show, we talk about some of the latest injury news and whether or not we've gone too easy on Geno Smith by not criticizing him enough during his Seahawks tenure. We get into the numbers behind what we'd expect to see with Sam Howell on the field. Do better callouts go out to Lids and to "Fake Wendy." Better at life honors go out to Gus Swayze surprising a group of Tampa Bay Bucs fans and Adam dives into uncharted territory with his pick.
