Dick and Dave are in the locker room checking in with JR Sweezy and Aaron Fuller. Kevin Harlan gives his thoughts on sports betting, the Seahawks, and the battle of two good guys as quarterbacks. Russell Wilson's passer rating when using play-action has jumped to 139.2 this year thanks to the arrival of a running game.
Softy and Dick are joined by Walter Jones on the improved Seahawks offensive line. Then, Mike Florio from Pro Football Talk on the NFL Trade Deadline and later Sounders Head Coach Brian Schmetzer and Tuesday's with NHL's Seattle Dave Tippett.
Fact or Fiction with Dick's pick and the gauntlet of a Seahawks schedule that remains. Plus, Jon Wilner from San Jose Mercury News on WSU in the Top 10 of the first College Football Playoff, Huskies outlook for the remainder of the season, and later Textimonials.
The Husky Honks with Softy, Dick Baird, and Hugh Millen try to figure out what happened on Saturday after a loss to California, what went so wrong on offense, questionable coaching decisions, and an early look at Stanford coming to Husky Stadium this Saturday.
Softy and Dick Fain are live from the Emerald Queen Casino preparing for Monday Night Football. We hear from Pete Carroll talking to the press after yesterday's win in Detroit. After seven games, the Hawks are doing a lot of things right, namely running the ball, and on defense. These changes are similar to what the Vikings did a year ago, and the team looks a lot like the Seahawks teams with the most success a few years ago. How did Lions fans react to yesterday's game. we play back the highlights from their radio broadcast with Dan Miller and Lomas Brown.
For his first Fact or Fiction pick of the week, much like his last one of last week, Softy takes Georgia. Was it the wrong move to pull Jake Browning near the end of the third quarter, or is hindsight 20/20? Fox Sports college football analyst Joel Klatt says he puts much of the blame for Saturday's loss, and in fact all three losses, on the coaching staff. Textimonials weigh in on the Huskies loss. Chris Petersen speaks to the media about Saturday's disaster.
Given how many pieces the Seahawks have lost recently, one would expect the defense to be suffering, but yet Seattle still has one of the best in the NFL. Could Pete Carroll be considered one of the top defensive minds in NFL History? Word is that Frank Clark may be willing to accept the franchise tag in 2019. That's a risk for him, but maybe not a big one because the Hawks may end up having to sign him for even more the longer they wait. If you had to pick one, which win would you rather have; Dawgs or Hawks? Dick Fain feels more strongly about the Hawks, even though a loss by the Dawgs would essentially mean the end of playing for anything substantial. Kevin Kugler is making his TV debut on Fox on Sunday. He previews the Seahawks vs. Lions matchup.
It's a Fact or Fiction gimme as Softy takes Georgia -1, despite the line being 6.5. Softy normally loves watching the MLB playoffs, so why isn't he watching this year? Rick Neuheisel discusses the Dawgs, the Pac-12, and everything happening in the world of college football. Textimonials react to the first two hours of the show.
We've got the all the sound bytes you might have missed from around sports on Fun with Audio: Ricky Jean Francois tells Detroit fans to get loud for the game against the Hawks, Mike Leach compares fantasy football to law school, Bill Belichick made a World Series hype video, and more. Bob Rondeau talks all things purple and gold going into this weekend's game against the Bears. Softy and Dick explain why they're so confident the Hawks will get a win on Sunday. Dick and Dave are in the locker room talking with D.J. Fluker and Salvon Ahmed.
WSU beat up on the Oregon Ducks last weekend, and are now facing yet another tough opponent in Stanford. The Dawgs are going up against California, who aren't pushovers, but aren't at the same level. Is it odd the Dick, a Dawg fan, is more intrigued by the Cougars on Saturday? He also says that he's far more dialed into the Hawks this year, and just wants the Huskies to get to Pullman already. Fox Sports' Tim Brando is on the call for the UW game this weekend. He talks about his thoughts on the Pac-12, whether it was a mistake for the Dawgs to play Auburn, and more. Lee Sterling has your college and pro football picks for the weekend.
It's Dick's pick on Fact or Fiction and he's rolling with the Midshipmen. Mike Holmgren joins us every Thursday from the Central Bar and Restaurant in Bellevue to talk about the latest Seahawks news, and everything happening in the NFL. Chris Petersen has his weekly Q&A with Softy before heading to California.
Which former Seahawk still active in the NFL would you like to see back on the team? Dick Fain and Softy discuss their lists, and debate which players they wouldn't want to see come back. It's a Wide Receiver Wednesday edition of Dick and Dave in the Locker Room, talking with Doug Baldwin and Aaron Fuller. Ken Norton Jr. discusses the Seahawks defense, including the development of Frank Clark.
Softy makes his second Fact or Fiction pick of the week. Is Jon Gruden approaching the Raiders the right way, and is it the way the Seahawks should have approached the season? Would you rather be 3-3, or 1-5 with a bunch of first round picks? Petros Papadakis discusses the competitive Pac-12 North, is Gardner Minshew a system QB, Larry Scott and the conference controversies, and Husky fans should be careful what they wish for. Textimonials with their most missed Seahawks players still in the league.
A lot of questions surrounded Frank Clark when he was drafted by Seattle. He's matured a lot since then, both as a player, and as a human being. He talks with Softy about those changes. Marshawn is injured, and might be done for good. Does he make the Hall of Fame? Is this season the end for Eli with the Giants? How will the Hawks stack up against Detroit? Kevin Harlan of Westwood One answers all of those questions. After looking up stats on the Lions, it's pretty clear they've got some defensive weaknesses, and the Hawks can take advantage of that by running the ball down their throats.
