Summary

After a whirlwind of three games in eleven days, we take a breath to dissect what went wrong and what can be improved with our Seahawks moving forward. Looking back to the game against San Francisco, the impact of turnovers and missed opportunities doomed the team. However, there remains the potential for a bounce-back game against the Falcons, as Atlanta struggled to hold off the Carolina Panthers last week.

What can the team do to help build their identity amid some of the challenges posed by having a new coaching staff. We talk about which issues are fixable and how the team can regain its footing. Going up against the Falcons offers an opportunity for a balanced offensive approach and the potential for Geno Smith to have a standout game with a limited Falcons pass rush (as long as Grady Jarrett doesn't have his regular breakout game against Seattle). With a mini-bye providing extra time for adjustments, there's hope for a turnaround and a return to the win column.

In the second half of the show, we talk about some of the latest injury news and whether or not we've gone too easy on Geno Smith by not criticizing him enough during his Seahawks tenure. We get into the numbers behind what we'd expect to see with Sam Howell on the field. Do better callouts go out to Lids and to "Fake Wendy." Better at life honors go out to Gus Swayze surprising a group of Tampa Bay Bucs fans and Adam dives into uncharted territory with his pick.

0:11.2	I'm Brandon Schultz of the military Seahawkers, and I am joined by my good buddy in
0:15.8	Montana, Sea Hawker, Adam Emmert.
0:19.2	Yeah, man.
0:19.8	Time to do a flagship show after what felt like a whirlwind
0:23.8	of three games and what was it, 11 days or something like that. It got kind of crazy there.
0:29.7	Time to sit down, breathe a little bit, kind of take in what's happened over the last few weeks
0:35.4	and maybe come to a more reasoned conclusion as to
0:39.7	where we are now and what it could look like going forward and those sort of things, but
0:43.9	didn't feel good losing to those dirty Niners the way we did. There's no doubt about that.
0:48.8	It didn't feel good losing to the Niners. It didn't feel good losing all three of those games
0:53.3	in that 11-day stretch
0:55.0	because you go from a team that was 3-0 and you're thinking, okay, all right, this is a good
0:59.6	way to start off and now you're back down to 3-3 and the schedule's not looking all that much
1:05.1	easier coming up over the next few weeks, but maybe it helps that you have a game where you can
1:10.5	hopefully bounce back against the Falcons, but I know we'll get have a game where you can hopefully bounce back against
1:11.6	the Falcons, but I know we'll get there. We do have the 49ers game to talk about.
1:16.6	We do. We can get into some of the nitty-gritty of everything that went on throughout that game and
1:22.2	all of that. But at the end of the day, when you sit down and you really watch it, even though it felt like a complete blowout from the jump, it really wasn't that.
1:33.5	And when you realize that for about three straight possessions there, you were within six points from the end of the third through the beginning of the fourth.
1:43.5	And the offense kind of sputters there.
