Summary

The wait is over! The 2024 NFL season is here, and we're kicking things off with our focus on the Seattle Seahawks Week 1 matchup against the Denver Broncos. The offensive firepower of Kenneth Walker and DK Metcalf under new offensive coordinator Ryan Grubb have us particularly excited after watching the first team offense in the preseason. We thought we couldn't be more hyped for the start of the season. But it turns out there was an announcement this week that has us even more excited to see our team on the field for the home opener.

What will the debut of rookie quarterback Bo Nix look like against the Seahawks new defensive strategies under Mike Macdonald? Will Grubb's strategy lean towards a high-octane passing game or will he balance it with a powerful ground attack? These are just a couple of the questions that we explore. Plus, a look at which Seahawks were signed to the practice squad after the 53-man roster was set last week.

In the second half of the episode, we talk about two lists that had some of us riled up to close out the preseason. It's also pick'em season! Go to seahawkerspodcast.com and click the link there to join us. Our league overlord makes an appearance to start the season to explain a couple of the important rules, plus the consequences for not following her orders. Do better call outs go to the media for always leaving the NFC West out until the end of coverage and to the coverage of an attempted robbery of a rookie wide receiver. Adam has an announcement about being wrong in his Better at Life segment and a former rival appears to be changing his stripes during his media appearances.

0:41.0	And, man, it's just, everything is new, but they feel so familiar with the Broncos and the Seahawks.
0:47.7	But yet, here we are getting pitted against one another and so much new stuff on both sides. I mean, for the Broncos and for the Seahawks. Absolutely. So two out of the last three years, we start out week one against the Broncos at home. And yeah, a lot of turnover on that Broncos roster. Obviously all the changes with the Seahawks and the coaching staff and everything, which we've got over at Nazium over the offseason because there's nothing else to talk about. Now we have a game to talk about. And that's super exciting. But pretty cool that they're going to bring in the throwbacks for this for a good throwback AFC West matchup here. I'm excited for it, man. I don't know if you could tell. That was smart of both the teams. I don't know if I could have been any more hyped for the game. But then when I saw the jerseys, I was like, oh, yes, I can be. I can't be. Yes. Yes. The other reason that I'm hyped for this game, Brandon, is I think this is an extremely winnable game for the Seahawks.
1:46.4	Coming with the rookie quarterback into a extremely, probably the most hostile environment in the entire league.
1:54.2	I know the Chiefs fans like to argue that they're louder.
1:57.5	I mean, they're wrong.
1:58.8	And I can't wait to see.
2:00.8	Philadelphia fans like to think they're more hostile, but they might be right. No, they're louder. I mean, the wrong. And I can't wait to see. Philadelphia fans like to think they're
