Danny addresses the idea that Russell Wilson paved the way for shorter quarterbacks. While that may be true, he emphasizes that Russell is in a unique category all his own. Paul can’t take the Browns seriously and compares them to a teenage soap opera.

In What To Watch For, they discuss the MLB championship games being set, UW facing Arizona and the Seahawks latest injury report. Then, the Professor recaps the Thursday Night Football game in his morning drive. Plus, we dive into whether Odell Beckham Jr. is authentic and whether we should be about Chris Carson being on the injury report.

Danny sees the Browns game as winnable, but Paul the Seahawks should whoop them.  The guys respect the Browns, but Paul needs a Hawksplanation. Listeners help us out. Paul wants to take the Knicks from New York and bring them to Seattle.  Danny is more interested in a forced sale.  Finally, we've got a flag on the play!

We hit three football questions in Blue 42 with Brock Huard, covering the biggest threat the Browns present the Seahawks, breaking down film and the Huskies run defense.  Plus, Clayton Kershaw represents a group of athletes that find great success in the regular season, but not in the post-season.  Why does that happen?  There are a few problems the Seahawks have, but Danny sees them as very fixable.  Bradley McDougald had some insights on what Seattle can do this weekend and it might have something to do with the bigger picture as well.  Plus, who is responsible for fumbles, the offensive or defensive player?

Where does this Browns game rank in importance for the Seahawks?  Danny sees it as a 10-foot putt - they can win and should.  Paul thinks they should destroy them.  Isn't it kinda funny that Richard Sherman actually may have assisted the Seahawks in being a distraction to Baker Mayfield?  In What to Watch for, we cover DJ Fluker, Thursday Night Football and the MLB divisional game tonight. John Clayton joins us for the Morning Drive! Plus, Clayton Kershaw is a prime example of great athletes who struggle in the postgame - who else across sports qualifies?  Tony Romo for sure...but Peyton Manning?  Paul thinks so. Kickers and Danny's spoiled milk theory.  The date is still good on Jason Myers and Danny's not sniffing yet.  Paul sniffs EVERY time.

Are the Seahawks missing some drama?  While we might be missing it in the media, that doesn't mean it would've lasted in the lockerroom.  It's kind of nice to watch that happen elsewhere now.  We head around the NFL including Russell ranked #1 offensive player, Richard Sherman clears the air and Gronk joins the booth.  Defensive minded teams tend to have more of a dominant personality, while offensive minded teams are more sound.  Perhaps that's why there's been a shift in drama for the Seahawks.  Finally, Flag on the Play!

In Blue 42 with Michael Bumpus, we ask if the Seahawks are ok without the edginess they used to have in their players departed, which is Russell Wilson's most impressive stat so far this season and whether or not quarterbacks need a certain personality to succeed in the NFL?  How would you feel if the Seahawks weren't a part of the tradeline frenzy this year?  Plus, Washington Wednesday!

Danny misses the drama of the Super Bowl era Seahawks, but he also acknowledges it's volatile. Paul says that type of circus has a shelf life.  Danny doesn't deny that.  Perhaps the lows are lower in those situations, but the highs are higher too.  It also ended as cleanly as it could for Pete Carroll.  The guys set you up for the news of the day in What to Watch For and John Clayton takes you around the NFL headlines in his Morning Drive.  Trey Wingo tells us where the Seahawks stack up against the rest of the NFC and finally, we officially hear from Richard Sherman, as he joined Pat McAfee to explain "DapGate".

Do the Seahawks need the swagger the 49ers showed last night, that they used to exhibit?  Danny doesn't think so.  It might be more fun to shut up San Francisco than me the one to talk smack.  Also, there are a few things infuriating Danny about the Pac-12 right now.  The Browns the Seahawks will face next weekend, but it won't be the same team we saw last night.  Danny explains the way the Seahawks play and Paul thinks they should demolish Cleveland.Finally, flag on the Play!

We kick off the hour with Brock Huard in Blue 42!  The Seahawks would've been better off if the Browns did better, because now they're desperate.  How much do bad losses weigh down UW's marquis wins?  Do you want the Rams or Niners to win when they face off on Sunday?  Booger McFarland gives Russell Wilson some love.  The Seahawks got a look at their next opponent, Cleveland last night - what kind of Baker Mayfield will we get?  Paul thinks the Seahawks defensive line will get plenty of opportunities.  Finally, Tom Brady and Russell Wilson are as different as quarterbacks can get - except for one thing.  Baker Mayfield doesn't have it.

Did we learn more about the Browns or the 49ers last night?  We certainly learned that Baker Mayfield isn't the leader the Browns need.  What does it mean for the remainder of the Seahawks schedule?  We set you up for the biggest things to watch for today, plus, are you rooting for the Rams or the 49ers in their matchup?  Is the Seahawks vs. 49ers rivalry back on, despite the teams not having faced each other yet?
