Summary

Our Seahawks did it! After Russell Wilson left following the 2021 season, the Seahawks have not been able to defeat the San Francisco 49ers. With Geno Smith's late game heroics, it led us to the reaction that we were looking for from Frisco fans. Doom! Talks about Kyle Shanahan deserving to get fired, star players getting too old, and playoff windows being closed -- we heard it all coming from our rivals to the south.

The Seahawks defense was a huge part of the win. Several players had some of their best games of the season and it helped limit the explosive plays by the Niners that helped them win the first matchup in Seattle. Jaxon Smith-Njigba continued to stack offensive performances and was Geno's go-to guy on a couple key third downs. But the play of the game came from Smith on his game-winning touchdown run.

Can the Seahawks keep it going at home against a Cardinals team that is riding a four-game win streak? Questions remain about whether or not Kyler Murray can continue to play at a high level as he tends to fade toward the end of every season. Or are we seeing the same issues now play out in Washington with Jayden Daniels and Murray's former head coach? Arizona Cardinals corners have been one of their biggest weaknesses on defense. So we can expect Ryan Grubb to test them early and often.

In the second half of the show, we talk about one of the first public interviews from Earl Thomas in a while. It's a great week for him as we found out this week that he made it as a semifinalist on his first opportunity to make the Hall of Fame. However, one key Seahawks player from the Legion of Boom era didn't make the cut this year. We call out a former Seahawks reporter as well as a pair of Bay Area radio hosts in Do Better. Better at life nominees go out to a Niners beat reporter who is getting under Shanahan's skin and to the Seahawks defensive coordinator for getting some strong performances out of the defensive line.

0:16.1	Adam, our Seahawks are coming off of victory over the dirty San Francisco 49ers,
0:22.7	and it's feeling so good.
0:24.4	Damn, does it feel good?
0:25.9	It really does.
0:27.0	You know, after losing six times in a row, Gino never having beat the Niners to come out
0:32.5	and watch Mike McDonald, like, truly deep hands, Kyle Shanahan in that game was just glorious.
0:41.4	The other glorious part about it.
0:43.4	See, this is what I was looking forward to the first time that we played the Niners,
0:48.9	because when the Seahawks and Niners faced off last time, they were kind of a little bit of a tailspin. But with the win over the Seahawks and Niners faced off last time, they were kind of in a little bit of a tailspin.

1:20.2	sports radio, this, this is what I was waiting for and have been enjoying all week.
1:26.3	The most fun narrative from listening to 49er land a little bit was listening to some of the 49er shows coming into this game just to kind of get their perspective on where they're coming from and things like that. And the narrative on many of the different shows was, hey, you beat the Seahawks here, you put them out of the misery, you don't have to worry about them for the rest of year, you're end their season,
1:46.8	let's take them out, retire to these people, like just get the win and send the Seahawks
1:52.0	home for the year. And what's extra, like, fun about that in totally, the Schadenfreude's
