Continuing our Know Your Rival series, this week we discuss the third place team from the NFC West in 2018. The San Francisco 49ers are hoping for a full season out of their starting quarterback this year after losing him early in the season due to an injury. Oscar of the Better Rivals podcast joins us to let us know that Handsome Jimmy will be expected to run out of bounds this year. We start by taking a look at the defense, and the 49ers have a clear strength on their defensive line with five first round picks including the number two overall pick in 2019. We discuss whether it will be enough to make up for some of the deficiencies in the secondary and where some of the biggest concerns are when it comes to San Francisco's defense. Special teams also has a number of questions considering their franchise kicker is holding out and we get Oscar's take on selecting a punter in the fourth round of the draft. To top it all off, their long snapper got popped for PED use! On offense, they looked for more help at wide receiver early on in the draft as well as through free agency. The have a strong group of running backs and a competent offensive line. Will that line be able to keep Jimmy healthy enough for a full season and will the young receivers develop into a solid unit. We get Oscar's take on all of the new faces. After backing up their talk (and also my talk last week) the U.S. Women are World Cup Champions and earn the Better at Life honors on this week's show.

254: Arizona Cardinals - Know Your Rival, with Bo Brack of Locked on Cardinals 07/04/2019

254: Arizona Cardinals - Know Your Rival, with Bo Brack of Locked on Cardinals An annual tradition for the show kicks off this week as we bring on fellow podcasters from rival NFC West teams in the month of July. This year we kick things off with the team that finished at the bottom of the division, but a team that may have the most intriguing offseason. Bo Brack of the Locked on Cardinals podcast joins the show to talk about a team that had made a lot of moves this offseason. Not only have they made moves in free agency, but they had the first overall draft pick with Kyler Murray. With 2018 Seahawks backup quarterback Brett Hundley as the only other QB seemingly providing competition at the spot in Arizona this year, it looks as though Murray is a lock to be the Week 1 starter. Brandan and Bo talk about any concerns about making sure Murray has a more veteran presence to try and overcome to ensure he really earns that starting spot. With Patrick Peterson suspended for the first six games of the season, including the first matchup with the Seahawks in week 4, it looks as though former Huskies corner Byron Murphy could be lining up as a starter. Bo explains why the schedule lines up favorably for the second round pick to ease his way into the starting role. After breaking down each position, the guys gets into what really matters, ranking the most handsome coaches in the NFC West. Kingsbury joins a division with Carroll, Shanahan and McVay, which clearly makes the West a lock for the best looking group of head coaches in the league. We also make Bo predict the finishing order for each of the teams in the NFC West. Lastly, we recognize former Seahawks owner Ken Behring who passed away this week at the age of 91. After he sold the team to Paul Allen, Behring went on to be involved with some philanthropic endeavors that earn him Better at Life honors for this week.

253: The too early 53-man Seahawks roster prediction 06/24/2019

253: The too early 53-man Seahawks roster prediction This week is a crossover episode with The Seahawks Nest podcast as co-host Nathan joins this show to break down the Seattle Times' early look at a potential 53-man roster. There isn't much controversy apart from wondering why George Fant isn't listed among the tight ends and trying to decide which backups in different position groups could be slotted to play quarterback behind Russell Wilson. One of the marks of a solid roster is seeing players who are potential cuts who have spent significant time with the team or other veterans who could be overtaken on the roster by some of the younger players. The guys talk about which areas of the roster appear to present the most strength with that regard and which part of the roster seems to have the least depth. Last week's show looked at some of the negative aspects of each of the rookies on the roster, and this week we talk about the rookies that Nathan is most excited about, both in the short term and long term. We also look at Pete Prisco's top 100 for this year. With only two Seahawks players making the list, who got snubbed and who could we expect to see jumping onto the list next season. In second segment of the show, the guys look at the NFL's rule change for pass interference in the 2019 season and close the show with a segment from The Seahawks Nest as Nathan and Brandan talk about some of their favorite movie crossovers.

252: Why every 2019 Seahawks draft pick is a bust 06/13/2019

252: Why every 2019 Seahawks draft pick is a bust This week we kick off the show with some of the discussions coming out of OTAs and mini camp interviews. Rashaad Penny talked about having to learn how to be a professional and several players have talked about changes they've made in the offseason. The guys talk about what some of the differences could be from the professional game to the college game and why players like Shaquille Griffin are talking about changing the way they eat. We're still waiting for Bobby Wagner to get paid, and while Carson Wentz gets his big pay from the Eagles, the guys talk about what that might mean for Jared Goff and the Rams. Also, with the Seahawks having nearly $30 million in cap space are they to a point where fans should be concerned that new ownership is less willing to spend up to the salary cap? Not all of the rookies are going to be amazing, so we're going to take some time this week to point out why each one of the Seahawks draft picks could end up being a bust. From L.J. Collier's lack of knees that bend to John Ursua allowing the football to beat him up, we point out what scouts have said as to why each player could fail in the NFL. Ultimately, we talk about which Seahawks rookie will be the biggest disappointment and that is most likely going to fall on the shoulders of D.K. Metcalf. Not because he's legitimately going to be bad, but because the expectations are so high for him that it's unlikely for him to get the kind of stats that people seem to be expecting from him. Adam talks about how he's now dealing with life with smart speakers his house, as he has a Do Better to offer this week and Brandan thanks the past and current Seahawks players who showed up to the Sea Hawkers Annual Banquet last weekend with Better at Life honors this week.

251: Nesby Glasgow, former Seattle Seahawks safety 06/03/2019

251: Nesby Glasgow, former Seattle Seahawks safety Nesby Glasgow, former Seattle Seahawks safety from 1988 to 1992 returns to the show and talks about his 14 year NFL career that came after a college career with the Washington Huskies and ended back in Seattle. As a 14 year NFL veteran who played until he was 35, we talk about the surprise of the offseason that Doug Baldwin is leaving the game at a relatively young age. We start the show by talking about his experience with the NFL draft and how an injury in the Senior Bowl dropped him down into the 8th round of the 1979 NFL Draft. With college players opting not to play in certain games leading up to the draft, Glasgow offers his perspective on the particular game he would be sure not to miss out on. Glasgow played for former Seahawks head coach Chuck Knox, who passed away last offseason, and he talks about how Knox was the greatest coach he played for and shares a story about how Coach Knox decided to celebrate after one of the team's big wins. He also shares a story about how the team got in the head of Bo Jackson in the final game of the 1988 season that earned the team its first AFC West Division title. Seattle went on to lose to the Bengals in the playoffs who represented the AFC in the Super Bowl that year against Joe Montana and the San Francisco 49ers. Concussions in the NFL continue to be a concern, and a particular concern to Glasgow who is now 62 years old, he says some recent changes to the offseason could actually be detrimental to current NFL players. As we reach a middle point of the offseason, Glasgow talked about his preparation and how he feels it set him apart from others in the NFL.

250: Bobby Wagner's contract status and the first week of Seahawks OTAs 05/25/2019

249: Doug Baldwin retirement denial, Seahawks sign Ziggy Ansah 05/14/2019

249: Doug Baldwin retirement denial, Seahawks sign Ziggy Ansah The Seahawks made a transaction this week that hit a lot of Seahawks fans hard. Doug Baldwin, along with Kam Chancellor, were released from the team with a failed physical designation. The guys talk about what Baldwin meant for the Seahawks in his career and how he'll be missed for a little while, but Adam seems to think he's not gone for good. It could be that both Brandan and Adam are in Baldwin retirement denial. There was some good news, however, as Seahawks free agency appeared to start this week with Ziggy Ansah being signed to the team along with another veteran defensive lineman Al Woods. Ansah is a former Pro Bowl player who has fought through some injuries the past few seasons and let go by the Lions after suffering an injury during the season he played under the franchise tag. Seattle may have even found their new third string quarterback with Geno Smith coming in for a visit this week amidst reports that he is expected to sign with the team. Thanks to DCH and to Dustin this week along with other thank yous this week. Adam is on travel, so we get to hear about his latest airline misadventures in the Do Better segment along with a Miami Dolphins running back who is leading the NFL in an offseason stat that is going to be tough to break. Better at life honors this week go to a group from Adam's airline misadventures and to, now a former Seahawks receiver, Doug Baldwin.
