After a whirlwind of three games in eleven days, we take a breath to dissect what went wrong and what can be improved with our Seahawks moving forward. Looking back to the game against San Francisco, the impact of turnovers and missed opportunities doomed the team. However, there remains the potential for a bounce-back game against the Falcons, as Atlanta struggled to hold off the Carolina Panthers last week.

What can the team do to help build their identity amid some of the challenges posed by having a new coaching staff. We talk about which issues are fixable and how the team can regain its footing. Going up against the Falcons offers an opportunity for a balanced offensive approach and the potential for Geno Smith to have a standout game with a limited Falcons pass rush (as long as Grady Jarrett doesn't have his regular breakout game against Seattle). With a mini-bye providing extra time for adjustments, there's hope for a turnaround and a return to the win column.

In the second half of the show, we talk about some of the latest injury news and whether or not we've gone too easy on Geno Smith by not criticizing him enough during his Seahawks tenure. We get into the numbers behind what we'd expect to see with Sam Howell on the field. Do better callouts go out to Lids and to "Fake Wendy." Better at life honors go out to Gus Swayze surprising a group of Tampa Bay Bucs fans and Adam dives into uncharted territory with his pick.

The Seahawks first matchup with a division rival ended in disappointment as Seattle fell 36-24 to the 49ers, marking a third consecutive loss. From what might have been Geno Smith's worst game of the season to blunders on special teams, the Seahawks struggled to maintain consistency against a 49ers team that capitalized on Seattle's mistakes. We discuss the team's identity crisis, questioning whether the Seahawks are simply a bad team or if they can overcome their current woes.

How frustrating was the loss to the New York Giants? There are still elements of the game that have us scratching our heads. We get into the offensive struggles and the questionable play-calling decisions that are leading us to ask an important question: Is it a Ryan Grubb issue, or is Coach Mike McDonald more involved with the offensive philosophy than we have been thinking? We get into three things Mike said in the last two days that lead us to explore the philosophical approach of the Seahawks' offense and why it might be setting the team up for failure.

On the defensive side, the struggles appear to be more related to execution rather than philosophy. We take a look at the run game issues and linebacker performance, particularly focusing on Jerome Baker's "guesses." Despite the defensive struggles, does the offense bear the brunt of the blame for the latest loss? Special teams also come under scrutiny, especially after a blocked field goal that could have turned the game around.

Looking ahead, we preview the upcoming matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. Can the Seahawks' defensive line capitalize on the 49ers' offensive line weaknesses and will the offensive line be able to slow down Nick Bosa and exploit the Niners' secondary? Plus, we're already seeing internal drama within the 49ers' locker room. Are Niners fans right that it is time to move on from their current coach? We suggest at least one recommendation. With a short week ahead, the Thursday night showdown will be another important test for our Seattle Seahawks.

Our Seahawks are off to a slow start against the Giants. Is it because we forgot to post our Thursday pick'em show?

Monday night's game, which ended in a 42-29 loss for Seattle, was a rollercoaster of emotions. While there were offensive and defense lapses, the offense looked like they were going to find ways to get back into the game throughout the night. We talk about our mixed feelings about the game and the offense in particular. While the Seahawks' offense, led by Geno Smith, showcased some impressive plays, the defense struggled to keep up, allowing Jared Goff to complete a perfect 18 for 18. But was Geno's game better than Goff's "perfect" game? Especially considering the pressure he faced from the Lions' defensive line, particularly Aidan Hutchinson.

Ken Walker's dynamic running style continues to be a bright spot for the Seahawks. He has shown that he needs to be an even bigger part of the offense throughout the game. We also look ahead to the Seahawks upcoming matchup against the New York Giants. We're looking to see how the team bounces back against an opponent that looks like they may struggle to put points on the board.

The Los Angeles Rams are struggling to keep points off the board with their defense. They dropped another game in the standings this week along with the Cardinals. Brock Purdy is looking a lot like Geno behind a mostly suspect offensive line and we'll be facing them next week. The refs from the game against the Lions need to do better, but maybe not for the reason you'd expect. Adam also spikes the football on an issue he saw coming years ago. Better at life honors go out to something we don't see as often in the political sphere and to a Seahawks player who should walk into the Hall of Fame.

The Seahawks got a 400 passing yard performance by Geno Smith and a three touchdown rushing performance by Ken Walker and they still lost by two scores to the Detroit Lions. Key injuries along the defensive line limited the pass rush and allowed Jared Goff to have a perfect performance on the day. An early fumble by DK Metcalf put the Seahawks behind early, but in previous weeks we saw the defense help limit the points given up from mistakes on offense. In addition to the three touchdowns, Kenneth Walker had an incredible broken tackle that still has us in disbelief that he never touched the ground.
