1 hour 38 minutes

On today’s Daily Puck Drop, Jason “Puck” Puckett discusses the latest NFL news, focusing on the Seahawks' recent trade for LB Ernest Jones. He analyzes the implications of the trade, the team's current performance, and the importance of building a strong roster. The Seahawks needed to improve their run defense and they did it. They have a real chance to win the NFC West, which would be amazing in Mike Macdonald’s first season.

Mike Garafolo, NFL Network joins the show for his weekly visit. They jump right into the latest trade rumors in the NFL and why Seattle may not be done as of yet. Would Maxx Crosby fit in Seattle and could they make it happen? Are the Rams really serious about trading quarterback Matt Stafford? Cooper Kupp appears to be gone.

Puck and Garafolo dive into the MVP discussion between Josh Allen and Ravens running back Derrick Henry, who is on pace to eclipse Eric Dickerson’s single season rushing record, which would be incredible.

After Garafolo leaves the show, Puck jumps back into college football, reviewing the Cougs and Huskies upcoming games. Promoting ‘Old Crimson Cougars Podcast, Cougs Corner and Puck the Huskies. WSU has a shot to run the table, but Puck is concerned there is at least one more loss coming…where? UW has their hands full with Indiana on Saturday, it’s being called the Gasman Bowl.

Who wouldn’t want Steve Ballmer as an owner? Puck would do anything to have him in Seattle!

Finally, “Hey, What the Puck!?” James Franklin's PR Crisis at Penn State. How to not handle it properly!
