The Seahawks find themselves asking a lot of questions and fans questioning what's wrong with the team. How can a team filled with Pro-Bowlers and All-Pro's be so uneven; 1st in points scored in the 1st half and last in points scored in the 2nd half. Now the Seahawks are coming off back-to-back losses and now pivot to NFC West rivals the San Francisco 49ers. Can the Seahawks find their way before it's too late to panic? This is the HawksCast.NET Podcast.

Topic #1 Always the optimist, is Pete Carroll finally going to crack and make big changes mid-season?

Topic #2 Wilson, Wagner and Adams are the highest paid players at their position; are they earning their money?

Topic #3 Hawks Cast Corner - If you were the Owner, what are the first two changes you're demanding this week?

The Seahawks suffer a stunning loss to the Titans; their first home opener loss in the past 13 years and now their 3rd straight home loss going back to last season. The Seahawks must regroup and travel to the great lakes state to face the Minnesota Vikings who need to do all they can to avoid a 0-3 start. Injuries are quietly mounting in some key positions but the core is there but could not sustain a drive. Are the Vikings a Titans clone; a strong running game with play-action tendencies to two outstanding WRs? This is the HawksCast.NET Podcast.

Topic #1 Did Seattle's explosive plays hurt themselves more than the Titans?

Topic #2 What is most likely to get fixed? What's least likely? Penalties, Offensive Consistency, or Defensive Consistency?

Topic #3 Hawks Cast Corner - Is Adams the Russ of the DEF? A guy so unique that you don't know how to use him?

Topic #4 Minnesota Vikings - The Vikings are 2 FGs away from being 2-0? Should the Seahawks be worried?

Predictions

Final Score Seahawks @ Vikings

Over/Under 15.5 Touches Chris Carson

Over/Under 23.5 Touches Dalvin Cook

Over/Under 2.5 TE Targets

The Seahawks open the 2021 season and blow expectations out of the water with a dominating win against the Colts. Pete needed to reset himself after saying the words "Russ" and "Cook" but it was hard to ignore how balanced and effective the entire team looked this past Sunday. Now the Seahawks turn their eyes to another AFC South team, the Tennessee Titans, who got thoroughly stomped by our rival the Arizona Cardinals. Can the Seahawks open Lumen Field with another resounding win? This is the HawksCast.NET Podcast.

Topic #1 Who gets the game ball from the opener?

Topic #2 Which side of the ball, OFF or DEF, were you most surprised to see? Is it sustainable?

Topic #3 Hawks Cast Corner - Draft failures starting to rise with Collier, Penny, T Brown, Pocic, etc?

Topic #4 Tennessee Titans - Is it worse to face a team off a win or loss?

Predictions

Welcome back for the final preseason game of the year. The Seahawks starters have all gotten a lot of rest but there maybe some turmoil rising with 21 Seahawks entering their final year of their contracts.

Due to unforeseen life, we paused last week's scheduled podcast but now we get to talk about the draft and the schedule!

The Seahawks got their participation trophy at the 2021 NFL Draft with their three picks. Draft grades are in, opinions on the rookies are in and there are so many questions on these three selected rookies because none of them "look" like guys that Seattle has drafted in the past. With only three picks, the Seahawks seemed to focus a lot on players that could also play Special Teams. The Hawks Cast Podcast, brought to you by www.hawkcast.net, is happy to know that we are getting so much closer to actual football.

Topic #1 How many of these rookies can be a Week 1 Starter? What about a playoff Starter?

Topic #2 Does this rookie class show a departure from Pete-ball and more Shane Waldron Ball?

Topic #3 Hawks Cast Corner - What's your take on the 2021 Seahawks Schedule? (https://hawkscast.net/forum/topic/2021-seahawks-schedule/)

Topic #4 Should players like Metcalf "train" for things outside of football?

Predictions

2.5 Over/Under UDFA's Make the 53-man Roster/Practice Squad

Most Improved Position Group

Least Improved Position Group

KJ Resigns w/SEA/Retires/Signs Elsewhere

Sherm Resigns w/SEA/Retires/Signs Elsewhere

Golden Tate Resigns w/SEA/Retires/Signs Elsewhere

Yes/No Aaron Rodgers is a Packer Week 1

The 2021 NFL Draft is here and while the Seahawks will have to wait an agonizing 55 picks before they get to pick with the 56th overall pick on Friday we are here for the draft. This is the lowest draft total for the Seahawks in the entire Pete/John regime; it's also tied with the lowest draft capital in NFL history. Pete has said that their first round pick is S Jamal Adams (and he will be in 2022) as well but the 2021 roster is filled with trade acquisitions besides Adams. The Hawks Cast Podcast is here for the draft and we are brought to you by the Hawks Cast Podcast (https://www.hawkscast.net).

Topic #1 Can you be excited for the Seahawks draft with such low capital?

Topic #2 Does the FO get credit for Adams, Dunlap and Jackson when they get their draft grade?

Topic #3 Hawks Cast Corner - How do you mock the Seahawks draft when they are so unconventional? (https://hawkscast.net/forum/topic/seahawks-mock-based-on-trade-scenarios-three-complete-scenarios-used/ & https://hawkscast.net/forum/topic/7-round-seahawks-mock-no-trades-version/)

Topic #4 Did the Seahawks limit themselves by not restructuring Wilson's salary to have more cap space?

Predictions

What round will the Seahawks select their first player?

Offensive/Defensive Player?

4.5 Over/Under Total Players Drafted

2.5 Over/Under Seahawks Total Trades

3.5 Over/Under Seahawks Players Traded Away

8.5 Over/Under UDFA's Signed

Yes/No Are you gonna watch the first round?

The Hawks Cast Podcast returns for season six and we launched a new website (www.hawkscast.net). The offseason is still here for another week or so and the drama does not disappoint. Key starters have been allowed to walk, no one was Franchise Tagged, and quite a few surprise signing occurred. With the 2021 salary cap staying the same, many worried that the Seahawks would have to run a skeleton crew but Pete/John has added to the OL, DL, RB, TE, and CB which were huge areas of concern. This is the Hawks Cast Podcast brought to you by the Hawks Cast Forum.

Topic #1 How close did Russell Wilson PR himself out of Seattle?

Topic #2 Is Shane Wauldron the answer at OC and does he have the right pieces?

Topic #3 Hawks Cast Corner - Did the Seahawks Players do the right thing by advocating for virtual mini-camp? (https://hawkscast.net/forum/topic/seahwks-statement-on-otas-during-the-pandemic/#postid-639)

Topic #4 Which Offseason move will help the Seahawks defend their NFC West title?

Predictions

Which new player will have the biggest impact?

Is KJ coming back?

Is Sherm?

Franchise/Extend Jamal Adams

On-paper, is this team better than the 2020 Seahawks?

The 2020 Seahawks season comes to an end against the rival LA Rams. Throughout the Wild Card game, fans had to question the Seahawks game plan going up against a Rams DEF that looks like it's built to stop the Seahawks OFF. Those questions were paused after the game but a few days later the Seahawks made a move and fired their OC, SkyBox Schotty. The new plan is to bring in an OC that will run Carroll's game plan of a balanced OFF that protects the ball with a more aggressive run attack but will that work with Russell Wilson? All this and more on the Hawks Cast Podcast Season Finale.

Topic #1 Was the 2020 Seahawks season a successful failure?

Topic #2 Did Pete fire the right Coordinator?

Topic #3 Hawks Cast Corner - Which team looks to make the biggest leap in the 2021 NFC West?

Topic #4 Which player are you extending/re-sign/cutting/walk?

Predictions

Superbowl Representatives Chiefs/Packers/Bucs/Bill

Future OFF Coordinator Current NFL OC/Former HC/Position Coach/College Coach
