Summary
Will Phillip Rivers play? If he does -- will he play well? What can our Seahawks expect from this talented Colts offense? We preview the possibilities on this week's Sea Hawkers What If!? The Seahawks top ranked defense will have the ability, with the eyes of many NFL fans watching, shut down Phillip Rivers, Jonathan Taylor and the Colts. We also look at how Seattle can exploit the Colts depleted cornerback room and what we might expect from Jaxon Smith-Njigba. We close with a game where we get to steal away some of the Colts top players. Finally, we read game predictions and wishes from our dedicated flock, who provide their insight and hopes for this week's matchup.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome in, welcome in, welcome in, welcome friends, to the newest edition of the Seahawkers. |
| 0:11.9 | What If the most unique Seahawks preview show in the Multiverse, I'm your host, |
| 0:16.2 | I am joined by my co-host today, Brandon Schultz, and of course, it would not be. It could not be. We could not traverse the Seahawks multiverse with the protector of this thar multiverse. Mr. Phil Lydic, boys, we are 10 and 3. And who knows who will be playing quarterback for these Indianapolis cults? All I know, Brandon is, they got to come all the way to the P&W. |
| 0:38.0 | It might be soggy. |
| 0:39.1 | It might be wet. |
| 0:40.2 | Our defense is fired up, and I expect a W. How you doing? Hey, we may not know who's playing quarterback for the Colts, but we do know who's going to be playing running back. And that is the dude that we have to worry about. and I'm looking forward to stopping so that we can just keep on rolling through this month of December. |
| 0:56.8 | Absolutely. And I'm looking forward to stopping so that we can just keep on rolling through this month of December. Absolutely. And Phil, how are you, buddy? We're having a bit of a heater, aren't we? Isn't this year just baking up to be something quite fun? Love it. And my boys are way into it this year, which makes it more fun. I mean, they've always watched them with me a little bit. But this year they're in with all their friends at school, and we're going to go to the game, the Rams game. They're getting amped up for that, watching everything to prep for that. But we have one before the Rams game, guys. We have a game that we thought was going to be two major juggernauts playing awesome. But when I watched the Colts this past week, I did not |
| 1:30.6 | see awesome. I saw them play the Jags. The Jags look like the much better team. We look at the |
| 1:36.0 | DVOA stuff and it's kind of different. There's something on both sides of the ball that's different |
| 1:40.3 | compared to what the season shows. Their defensive backs, especially corners, are depleted. |
| 1:46.1 | Daniel Jones no longer there. I don't know how awesome Daniel Jones is, but he seemed to be |
| 1:50.4 | working good in this offense. Their defensive DVOA is 13th on the season, 12th against the |
| 1:57.3 | pass, 18th against the run. But I saw a bad pass defense. They were trying |
| 2:02.0 | crazy stuff. Whenever it was third and long, if that happened, they did some three-man rushes, |
| 2:07.5 | so maybe watch out for that. It was a little different. But wide receivers were open all day |
| 2:11.7 | for the Jags. They had 28 points in the first half, and it wasn't goofiness other than just bad coverage on the wide receivers. |
| 2:21.4 | Then the Jags just kind of put their foot off the gas and say they'll do a 3619 victory. |
| 2:26.9 | The Rush D looked okay in this game, maybe because the Jags didn't need it, but Etienne was not getting a ton, I would say. |
| 2:33.9 | I think they held that up okay. |
| 2:36.1 | Backup quarterback, something we're used to seeing five times for our team this year. They had |
| 2:40.6 | their backup quarterback in in the fourth quarter, just kind of finishing things off. On |
| 2:44.8 | offense, I'll tell you, the Colts O-line is good. Both parts of O-lining they're good at. Solid protection. There was a lot of time for |
