Summary

DK Metcalf was an enigma in Seattle. Nobody had his combination of size and speed at the receiver position. He never fully realized that potential and is now a Steeler. Gone is his tremendous talent, but also some of his undeniable shortcomings. I knew Metcalf was not great in the red zone. I had no idea just how bad. I share his numbers here and explain why Seattle may actually benefit from his absence in some situations.

0:00.0	Good morning, everybody. Welcome to another episode of Hock Blogger Mornings. I am Brian
0:11.0	Namsuser. You can find me on Twitter, Instagram, Blue Sky, YouTube, and yes, TikTok, ad hoc
0:17.1	blogger. In fact, I'm live on TikTok this morning as I try to do when I don't have a guest
0:23.0	or when I don't have a lot of stuff that I'm going to show on the screen because fortunately,
0:28.2	TikTok does not allow me yet to stream directly to it. So if you guys could see my setup,
0:33.9	it's a little bit crazy with phones and screens and all this good stuff. But happy to have you
0:39.1	with me on this Tuesday morning. Another beautiful day in the PNW. I hope you guys are having a chance
0:46.4	to enjoy the weather wherever you are and enjoying your Tuesday morning. And we're coming to you a little
0:51.2	bit early. So, you know, if you're doing your morning workout, if you are on your commute to work, hopefully we can keep you company and give you some Seahawks things to think about.
1:04.0	I've got some interesting stuff to share with you today.
1:07.0	I looked up some numbers on a recently departed Seahawk because I had a thought in mind and
1:14.0	a theory in mind and boy, did it turn out to be true a little bit more than I even realized. So I'll be
1:23.1	sharing some of those numbers with you. I think they are wild, numbers that I would have not
1:28.4	have guessed before I looked them up. So I will share those with you in just a little bit.
1:34.5	There's some random other news, I guess, to kind of go through. I'll start there. We have
1:42.1	another Sundell in the Pacific Northwest.
1:47.1	Jalen Sundell, who was an undrafted free agent selected by the Seahawks
1:51.3	or signed by the Seahawks last year,
1:53.6	and it's going to be in competition for the starting center role this year.
1:57.1	Well, his sister, Serena Sundell, was picked 26th overall by the Seattle Storm last night.
2:06.3	Congratulations to her. Congratulations to the Sundells. They're maybe unexpected in their own family, becoming a Seattle family. So maybe, maybe we'll complete the circle when Gray
2:21.9	Zabel gets selected by the Seahawks. Gray Zabel, who played with Jalen Sundell at North Dakota
