Today’s Daily Puck Drop with Jason “Puck” Puckett, welcomed Jim Moore, the Go-2-Guy, who joins Puck every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Also, Tim Booth of the Seattle Times and Curtis Crabtree of FOX 13 drop by for their Monday weekly show, Ground Puck Seahawks Podcast.
Jim and Puck jump right into the Seahawks miserable loss and continue to just shake their head at how bad the Seahawks offensive line is.
It is without a doubt the worst offensive line in the history of the organization and you can’t really get all that critical of Ryan Grubb or Geno Smith because they can’t get to any of the plays they truly want to run because of how bad the line is.
Despite the struggles of the offensive line, Puck and Jim did resist their bet that they made in the beginning of the season where Jim bet Puck $250 dollars that Sam Howell would start a game this season and not because of injury. Puck said he still feels confident in that bet, but he thinks the door is a little bit more open especially with the teams upcoming schedule.
Speaking of that schedule, Puck points out to Jim that it’s highly likely that they won’t be favored in any of their remaining eight games.
After talking about the Seahawks, they turn their attention to the Cougars, who will find themselves ranked in the top 20 of Tuesday’s first College Football Playoff rankings. ESPN analytics gives the Cougs a 17-percent chance of making the playoffs and if they win their remaining four games, that figure jumps up to 34-percent. Puck and Jim are reveling in the idea that they have shot to make it, but also acknowledge that it wouldn’t be realistic if it weren’t for the schedule they have played.
However, Jim is not rooting for the Huskies at all. Jim doesn’t want to see Washington beat Penn State or Oregon, even though it helps the Cougars resume. He’d rather have the Cougs just miss out on the playoffs. Puck thinks Jim is officially crazy.
Puck goes back to the Seahawks as Tim Booth , Seattle Times and Curtis Crabtree, FOX 13 join Puck for the Ground Puck Seahawks Podcast. Once again they focus in on the awful offensive line play and until that ever fixes itself, the team will continue to lose games like they did on Sunday to the Rams.
They discuss the decision by Mike Macdonald to go for it on fourth down in overtime. Tim and Curtis liked the decision, Puck offered up an alternative and thought he should have trusted his defense more.
What is going on with Connor Williams and why can’t he snap the football anymore? How much is that now affecting Geno Smith?
Speaking of Smith, do the guys ever foresee a scenario where Sam Howell starts a game this season over Smith? The final eight games of the season will be tough and you can make a plausible argument that they won’t be favored in those games.
Lastly, why has the team been so sloppy this season? That’s a direct reflection on Mike Macdonald.
Finally, Puck wraps up the show with “Hey, What the Puck!?” Cougar fans! Have fun with all the playoff talk. Revel in it. You never know who long it will last. The team has put themselves in a position this season to give themselves a shot. That has been awesome to watch develop!
