Welcome into today's episode of pushing the pile.

Mike Renner and J.P. Acosta here going to be bringing you a little Super Bowl preview.

I know you're all probably previewed out at this point, but we're going to give our take on it. We're going to go through and look at how both of these teams were

built the strategies that they took to get to this spot, because I think it's interesting, the

dichotomy between the two, how one was built through the draft, and then had a free agent

quarterback. One was built through free agency and had a draft quarterback. We'll get to that in a little bit. We're going to go through the matchups that we think are going to decide this Super Bowl. We're going to give our final picks. And at the end of the show, we're going to tie a bow on this coaching class. The 10 openings, nine of them are filled. One of them we expect to be filled

with Clint Kubiak offense coordinator for the Seattle Seahawks. We'll get to that, give out grades

at the end of the shell. Let's start with this Seattle Seahawks team, JP, because a unique

situation here with John Schneider, the GM, kind of having two very separate teams

go to Super Bowls now.

It's rare to have a guy this long tenured and have two separate sort of entities make it

to the promised land here.

Obviously went to two Super Bowls in the mid-2010s, now gets back here.

And it's the same story as the first one. We're going to look through it. It was built through the draft. Their top 100 picks from the past five years, the guys that are on their rookie deals, the guys that you need to have, you need to pay cheaply to win in the NFL. You have guys like Gray Zabel, Nick a Manworry, Byron Murphy, their defensive tackle, Devon Witherspoon, Jackson Smith, the Jigba, Charles Cross, Abe Lucas, all within the last four years.

A truly insane amount of talent that they've added through the draft, but then they've also uniquely made trades during midseason to bolster this roster.

You had Leonard Williams, the trade in 2023.

Ernest Jones, the trade last year, Rashid Shaheed, the trade this year.

So a interesting team-building strategy for the Seattle Seahawks, not one everyone can

implement, right?

You got to be good at drafting, but John Schneider's done it, and that's what's

fueled them to this spot. And it's so interesting looking at what the Seahawks have done to build

this team and to build this version of this team, especially considering a few years ago,
