HawkBlogger.com Seahawks Podcasts: Featuring Real Hawk Talk

Sponsored by Steam Donkey Brewing (www.steamdonkeybrewing.com) and Altitude Homes (http://altitude-re.com/hb) The Seahawks finally dominated an opponent. It was the Colts, and it was only a half, but it was still pretty awesome. What does it mean? What's next? The Rams and their high-scoring offense. This game has massive implications for the division. We welcome Brady Henderson of ESPN to the show to discuss all this and more. Become a Hawk Blogger Patron at http://patreon.com/hawkblogger

Softy and I discuss all the issues facing the Seahawks on the field and off. Are we being too negative about this team? That is discussed and more.

I made a mistake in how I handled part of the Real Hawk Talk episode last night. I want to set the record straight.

Softy and I talk about the reasons for optimism in what has been an otherwise frustrating beginning to the Seahawks season.

Brian and Jeff dissect what they have seen thus far from the Seahawks and look ahead to the big game against the Titans.

It may not be time to panic, but it is also not time to pretend things are going to magically get better along the Seahawks offensive line. What are some things we can hope to see on Sunday against the 49ers?

This episode is brought to you by Pagliacci Pizza (http://pagliacci.com), Steam Donkey Brewing (http://steamdonkeybrewing.com), and Altitude Homes (http://altitude-re.com/hb). The Hawk Blogger crew welcomed two stellar guests to the show to talk Seahawks. We kicked things off with Natalie Weiner of Bleacher Report, and formerly of Billboard Magazine. Natalie is an avid Seahawks fan, and famous Jermaine Kearse aficionado. She also wrote a fascinating article on the impact of medicinal marijuana in sports that we touched on. Later, we welcomed Kenny Mayne, possessor of the best sense of humor to grace the ESPN airwaves. Mayne is from the Seattle area, and is a Seahawks fan. He had amazing stories to share. Must listen stuff. We also discussed the Green Bay frustrations and brief look ahead to the 49ers.

It's almost time! Here are some thoughts on: - Key matchups to watch - Impact of Bulaga being out - Impact if Rawls is out - Fair expectations for Shaq Griffin in his debut - Fair expectations for the offensive line today

This podcast is sponsored by Pagliacci PIzza (http://pagliacci.com). The best in the Northwest! Softy and I return for the start of another Seahawks season. He is his usual surly self and I tell him why he should be happy. We talk about the offensive line, the new young cornerback, and why pass protection is just as much about the quarterback as it is about the line in front of him

The Seahawks start the season with one of their toughest games. Vegas puts the Packers right behind Seattle for likely Super Bowl winners, but has Green Bay favored by three points. Jeff and Brian welcome special guest Aaron Nagler of Packer News on the show. Nagler covers the Packers beat and offers a ton of great insights about the matchup, including a surprising and encouraging prediction about one key Packer player who may not suit up.

Jeff and Brian are back for a special Monday edition of Real Hawk Talk in order to accommodate a very special guest. Mike Garafolo, of the NFL Network, comes on to give us a little more info on what he meant when he said the Seahawks make have some more "roster tweaks" ahead. He dishes on the impact of the Julian Edelman injury after just leaving Patriots camp, the possibility of a Sheldon Richardson trade to Seattle, and even the potential the Seahawks might trade away a guy like Thomas Rawls. Jeff and I wrap by going through the projected roster moves and recapping the Seahawks game against the Chiefs.
