Dave 'Softy' Mahler and Dick Fain

In typical Seahawks fashion, yesterday's game started slow, but in the end the Hawks offense carved up the Vikings defense. With analysis, we turn to Hall-of-Famer Walter Jones. Mike Florio shares thoughts on the Hawks after last night's win, plus fatal flaws of the top five teams, and who Seattle fans should be rooting for in the San Francisco, vs. New Orleans game. Time to react to the stories you've asked about on our Weekly Weigh In courtesy of 30/10 Weight Loss for Life.

Hearing from Chris Petersen today, it seems that his level of passion for the job has fallen a bit over the last year or so. Maybe he'll step away from the game for a bit and re-emerge as a head coach in the NFL. It worked for Pete Carroll. In the meantime, Jimmy Lake seems like the right guy to bring passion back to Washington football. You've been waiting for it, and it's finally here; the Opponent Audio Recap. Hear the sounds of Paul Allen, Pete Bercich, and Greg Coleman call the Vikings' loss to the Seahawks on Monday night. Finally, Jimmy Lake caught up with Softy after today's press conference to talk about his vision for UW football.

It came as a complete shock to everyone. Today at 10:53, a press release went out announcing that Chris Petersen will be stepping down as the head coach of the Huskies, and Jimmy Lake will get the bump up to head coach. Many assumed that Petersen wouldn't be here long-term, but few expected things to change now. If there is one positive, it's that Jimmy Lake will be sticking around. It was assumed that sooner or later, he'd take off for a head coaching job somewhere else. The fact that Petersen is stepping down now means he can stay to lead this program. Not completely lost in the big news of the day, there is a Seahawks game tonight, and Vikings voice Paul Allen drops by to discuss the game. Yesterday, the 49ers got their second loss of the season against the Ravens. Next week, they take on New Orleans. Would you rather see San Francisco win that game, or the Saints?

Former Husky coach Keith Gilbertson had Jimmy Lake on his staff 15 years ago. He tells us what he believes Lake will bring to the table now that Chris Petersen has stepped down.

There's a lot going on today as Dick and Dave are out at the VMAC, but of course, the big focus today is the Apple Cup which is now less than 48 hours away. First up, Mario Bailey drops by the show to talk about the 2019 Huskies, the problem the team faces, the importance of winning this game, and the look ahead to the 2020 team. We asked the question yesterday, would you rather get an Apple Cup win for your team, or a Hawks win on Monday? Other than bragging rights, the game on Friday doesn't mean that much to either team, where a Hawks win could determine where they land in the playoffs. With so much less on the line, there's a lot less stress before this Apple Cup vs. the last few. It's our very final Fact or Fiction pick for this season, and your last chance at winning $1,000 courtesy of the Emerald Queen Casino. Petros Papadakis joins us a little early today to look at the Apple Cup, including a prediction for the game.

After Sunday's game against Green Bay, Richard Sherman took some time to publicly defend Jimmy Garoppolo, who he says never gets any credit. Was he really annoyed, or just trying to fire up his team? Either way, it's interesting that he never took that approach. Why did he never defend Russell Wilson? The obvious answer is he just didn't like him. Jon Wilner suspected Oregon had a shot in losing the game against ASU, and he was right. We get his thoughts on the big rivalry games this week, which ones are the most vitriolic?
