Hey everybody, it's Brian. Before I did this Seahawks stuff full time, I worked as a manager and senior leader, so I know how lonely it can be to try to find someone you trust to talk through people issues, org issues, process issues, as you try to lead an organization.

Ryan Cleveland of Ryan Cleveland.com is someone I trust to have those conversations with.

He specialized in working with CEOs and business owners, and you can get a complimentary free

discovery session to see if it's a good fit for you. Just go to Ryan Cleveland.com to sign up

and start now. Hello, welcome to another episode of Real Hawk Talk. I am Brian Nemhouser. You can find me on

Twitter or Instagram and now on Blue Sky ad hoc blogger. And man, been a busy day it's been a very hectic day and

just pulling into this seat spinning right before we got here and could not be happier than to

share the evening before Thanksgiving to my best buds, Evan Hill and Jeff Simmons

to talk about the Seahawks. Evan, how are you doing, man?

I'm doing so well. I am still sort of feeling this optimistic enthusiasm that I've had

off this two-game winning streak,

just so impressed with the defensive turnaround that we've seen over the past few weeks.

This is, I think, something that if you had told us at the beginning of the year,

that the Mike McDowellon defense would be looking like this performing at this level

against our feared you know,

feared NFC West foes and their coaching staffs. We would all tell you to shut the hell up because

you'd be joking with us. So I'm super stoked about this team. I'm a little worried about

this upcoming game and I'm sure we'll get into it. But overall, very positive with the trajectory of this team and the remaining schedule.

Like there's a real opportunity here for Seattle to outperform expectations.

So that was a longwinded.

How are you doing?

But I'm doing great.
