1 hour 36 minutes

On today’s Daily Puck Drop, Jason “Puck” Puckett welcomes his weekly guests, Danny Kelly, from The Ringer and John Canzano from JohnCanzano.com

Puck starts off the show addressing the Seahawks defense and just how bad it’s been this year and in fact it’s worse than it was last year under Pete Carroll. The whole reason you fired Carroll and to bring Macdonald in was to fix the defense. So far, Macdonald has not done that.

Russell Wilson was vintage Russell Wilson last night and Puck that he was done forever in the league, but he’s happy to see what Wilson is doing and happy to be wrong…yet again!

Danny Kelly, The Ringer, stops on by to chat about the NFL, Seahawks and to answer your fantasy football questions. Danny and Puck talk more about Wilson and both agree that he looked great on Monday against the Giants and agreed that no player believes in himself more than Russell Wilson.

Puck and Danny try to figure out what’s wrong with the Seahawks defense. How can they be worse than they were last year? Are we starting to feel nervous about the Macdonald era or do we need to be patient with the new head coach?

Have you had enough of Hail Mary talk? Puck and Danny are over the Commanders Hail Mary play breakdown on all the talking shows on TV. Listen, it was a Hail Mary. It was lucky. Move on!

Danny offers his fantasy football advice on a waiver wire Tuesday. Lastly, a new feature for Puck and Danny, they put a player, coach, or team on the “Barge” each week. Last week they put the 49ers on it, but they have decided to rescue the Niners from the “Barge” after their win against Dallas. This week, Danny put Seahawks center Conner Williams on the Barge and Puck went with Colts QB Anthony Richardson for taking himself out of the game last week.

John Canzano, from JohnCanzano.comdrops by for his weekly visit to chat about all things college football. Puck and John start off the segment talking about the inexact science of college football polls and why they are so meaningless to begin a college football season. The problem with the polls is that they influence the way the media portrays certain teams.

John is a Heisman voter, if John voted today, who would he give it too? Puck agrees with John’s pick. Do the Cougars have a realistic shot at the College Football playoffs? John is more optimistic than Puck…shocker! They also talk about the situation at Penn State with head coach James Franklin. How come coaches and schools can’t handle their public relations and communications better?

Finally, John has new information on the Pac-12 reaching a deal with Octagon, a national company that will try and secure the Pac-12 a new media rights deal.

Lastly, “Hey, What the Puck!?” Puck can’t believe the CEO of Taco Bell is a graduate of Washington State and he wants a Taco Bell inside the stadium and he wants NIL deals for all the athletes. In fact, he wants the field and stadium to be renamed after Taco Bell!
