450: Seahawks Look to Overcome Annoying Bye Week Narratives

Sea Hawkers Podcast: for Seattle Seahawks fans

It's a milestone episode (or at least half of one) depending on how you choose to look at it. It will absolutely be a milestone worth marking if the Seahawks can manage to beat a 49ers team that has had the Seahawks number since Russell Wilson left. But is that where we should be counting from or can we start from the beginning of the Mike Macdonald era now that we have a new head coach? With the departure of linebacker Tyrel Dodson, John Schneider continues to get heat from fans, but is it deserved in this case?

We get into this week's matchup with the San Francisco 49ers as the Niners have their top player back in the lineup. Is Christian McCaffrey fully healthy or is Shanahan just taking away practice reps to reduce the amount of stress on his tender Achilles? We talk about Coby Bryant's recent play and how the success of the defense may depend on some of his ability to help reduce the amount of explosive plays this week. On offense, we need to see our Seahawks take advantage of a few potential absent players on the San Fran defense.

We asked for your mailbag questions and the flock delivered this week. We discuss what the Seahawks may want to do at punter following this season. Plus, what will success look like at the end of the season even if the Seahawks fail to make the playoffs? What do we think the Seahawks record will be at the end of the season? In the pickem portion of the episode, hear how our overlord is asking for picks to be changed during a Seahawks bye week? Chicago radio reporters and the Commanders stadium pest control both need to do better. Better at life nods go out to Tim for some upcoming fiberoptic work and to a former Seahawks defensive back.
