Summary

As we put a bow on the 2022 season for the Seahawks, we talk about some of the milestones the team hit and the excitement for the future considering the rookies that showed potential. But will Geno Smith be a part of the Seahawks future? Should he be part of the future if the team's goal is to win a Super Bowl sometime in the next three years.

We take a look at the data in what successful teams have done in recent years and found that drafting a quarterback in the top 10 is a much bigger risk than drafting a defensive player in that same range. Plus, it has generally taken a top defense in points allowed to make a deep run into the postseason.

With free agency a topic to discuss over the next few weeks, we take our first look at the players who would be key for Seattle to re-sign and which ones could walk. There's one player in particular the Seahawks could go after if they wanted to make a big splash in free agency (if that player is available. But it would also be fun if they traded for another future first rounder to give us another team that we could cheer for their demise.

To close the show, a former Seahawks player and the Panini trading card company get called out to Do Better. Finally, the latest space effort and the fundraising drive by our Flock get the Better at Life honors.
