Summary

The Seahawks suffered a tough loss to the Packers, falling 30-13 in a game that highlighted some of the strengths and weaknesses of the team. After quickly falling behind 14-0 in the first quarter, the game felt like a slow inevitability, despite moments of hope. The two touchdown lead came as a bit of a surprise, as Green Bay had only scored that quickly twice this season, especially considering how well the defense had been playing in recent weeks. Where does this leave Seattle's chances for the playoffs? Part of that answer will depend on the status of Geno Smith and how quickly he'll be ready after getting injured in the 3rd quarter.

0:00.0	Hello and welcome to the Seahawkers podcast. We are live. We are uncat-fished, and I don't know how much we're going to use the catfish button, Adam, or that we would use it in a game like this where the Seahawks lose 30 to 13 it's kind of one of those games like when you fall down 14 to nothing in the first quarter that it feels like a slow inevitability with moments of hope sprinkled throughout
0:32.6	yeah so with this game we talked a lot about uh this being a measuring stick game throughout the week on all our different shows.
0:42.3	And it's as if the Packers picked up the measuring stick and then just beat us around the head and neck area for a half.
0:49.2	And then put it down for about a quarter and a half, picked it up back up again towards the end of the game and just smacked us across the head one more time as like, stay down and message received.
0:58.7	They kicked our ass up and down the field.
1:01.2	Hats off to the Packers, far superior team, and we aren't there yet.
1:08.0	Not there yet.
1:09.1	It makes you wonder.
1:10.7	It does kind of put you in the place of,
1:13.2	I don't think that we get there this year because in terms of a measuring stick game, they made
1:20.7	it pretty obvious where we were, although, you know, it still has us in that area hovering
1:26.3	of teams that could and may make the playoffs still.
1:29.7	Shoot, we're still in the running to win the division.
1:34.3	And that's also possible.
1:36.2	But when you look at teams like the Lions and the way we played against Detroit and the way that we played against Buffalo,
1:43.1	yeah, it's all kind of painting a picture here late in the season that's, okay.
1:48.1	Yeah, we had a really nice four-game stretch and it got a lot of our hopes up.
1:53.6	But now I feel like we can kind of find a good spot in reality, I think.
2:00.4	For sure. And I actually got a text from the reality, I think. For sure.
2:01.4	And I actually got a text from the DCH just right after the game saying we're two years away.
2:07.4	And he's probably spot on with that.
2:09.9	But with that said, do you want to start with the silver linings or do you just want to start with the bad?
