Hello and welcome to the Sea Hawkers podcast from the podium post-game edition.

I'm Brandon Schultz.

Interviewees at the podium kept it brief after this unfortunate loss to Frisco, and so will I.

Let's start with Quandre Diggs, who was asked if the team suffered from an emotional hangover

following the win over Denver.

I'm not sure.

You know what I mean?

I'm not sure.

I mean, if it was, it's league to humble you quick, and, you know, we were humble today,

and it's just part of it.

I mean, I don't see why we will be riding high.

You know, everybody's doubting us anyway.

So you shouldn't be, you know, feeding into all the hype anyways.

I mean, obviously, we're not that good.

And I appreciate the quote a little bit more now that I've heard it from him directly

coming out of the game.

It made it sound as if quandre was saying, we're not that good.

And obviously you hear the little bit different inflection in his voice where he says,

we're not that good.

So take that for what you will.

But Gino Smith, quarterback for the Seahawks, was asked the same question. You know, we can't let that be an excuse. You know, you're going to have to play games every week, you know, going to have some short weeks. And, you know, I don't really think it was because of last week that we didn't get it done today. I feel like, you know, we really shot ourselves in the foot, you know, has some uncharacteristic plays here and there. And so, you know, we just got to keep working, get back to work, you know, clean up the mistakes and then obviously just get ready for next week. Gino also talked about the need to get D.K. Metcalfe more involved offensively. Yeah, they're doubling them.

And that's going to be the case all year. They're going to make it hard on them. You know, they want to win too. So, you know, it's very hard to cover D.K. and Tyler with just one guy. And so they're going to put multiple guys on them. They're going to try and, you know, do whatever they can to make the other guys on our team beat them. And so obviously we want to get the ball into our playmaker's hands, and we have to figure out ways to do so.
