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...
info_outline 452: Seahawks Defense Stifles Cardinals, Eyes on a Geno Smith Revenge GameSea 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...
info_outline The Seahawks Defense Continues to Smother the OppositionSea 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...

From snowy Thursday Night Football, where the Browns edged out the Steelers, to divisional dynamics and lopsided matchups like the Chiefs at Panthers, we go through all the Week 12 matchups. Confidence is high in backing Kansas City, while risk picks help to split Bears vs. Vikings and Patriots vs. Dolphins.

info_outline 451: Celebrating a Seahawks Victory Over The Dirty NinersSea Hawkers Podcast: for Seattle Seahawks fans
Our Seahawks did it! After Russell Wilson left following the 2021 season, the Seahawks have not been able to defeat the San Francisco 49ers. With Geno Smith's late game heroics, it led us to the reaction that we were looking for from Frisco fans. Doom! Talks about Kyle Shanahan deserving to get fired, star players getting too old, and playoff windows being closed -- we heard it all coming from our rivals to the south. The Seahawks defense was a huge part of the win. Several players had some of their best games of the season and it helped limit the explosive plays by the Niners that helped them...
info_outline Seahawks Defense Helps Save the Season Coming Off the ByeSea Hawkers Podcast: for Seattle Seahawks fans
With two unprecedented moves in the bye week, as the Seahawks started center retired and their leading tackler was waived, this felt like a pivotal moment in Coach Mike Macdonald's young coaching career. The offense shows some improvement and the defense stepped up in a big way against the Niners offense. Brock Purdy was limited to one of the lowest totals of passing yards in his career and Christian McCaffrey was held relatively in check. It all set up for Geno Smith to pick up another "stat" in the closing moments of the game. Looking for more Seahawks shows? Subscribe to Join the ...

info_outline 450: Seahawks Look to Overcome Annoying Bye Week NarrativesSea Hawkers Podcast: for Seattle Seahawks fans
It's a milestone episode (or at least half of one) depending on how you choose to look at it. It will absolutely be a milestone worth marking if the Seahawks can manage to beat a 49ers team that has had the Seahawks number since Russell Wilson left. But is that where we should be counting from or can we start from the beginning of the Mike Macdonald era now that we have a new head coach? With the departure of linebacker Tyrel Dodson, John Schneider continues to get heat from fans, but is it deserved in this case? We get into this week's matchup with the San Francisco 49ers as the Niners have...
info_outline Week 10 Picks: Panthers to Upset Giants and Carolina FansSea Hawkers Podcast: for Seattle Seahawks fans
This week's show kicks off with a well-deserved victory lap after a successful week of picks. We also introduce some AI research that will never be used again. Giants vs. Panthers game is one of the first matchups we look at and somehow AI believes Saquon Barkley could play a significant role. In the Patriots vs. Bears game, AI cites Bill Belichick's strategic prowess as a key factor in favor of the Patriots. Closing the show, we take a look at Russell Wilson's comeback with the Steelers as we like Pittsburgh to continue to roll in a bigtime matchup against Dan Quinn and the Commanders. ...
info_outline 449: The Seahawks Are Conceding the Line of ScrimmageSea Hawkers Podcast: for Seattle Seahawks fans
The play of the offensive line and turnovers by Geno Smith in Sunday's loss to the Rams brought a lot of questions about which aspect may be more to blame for the loss. We dig into some of the answers from Mark Schlereth and his opinion as a former Pro Bowl offensive lineman. Plus, the disparity of the Seahawks quarterback under center versus their opponent reached a season high. Would it help or hurt Geno and the Seahawks if they line up under center more often? Halfway into the Seahawks, we talk about how Seattle might consider approaching the offseason. Are minor adjustments needed or is it...
info_outlineAfter 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.
