Mike Salk

Salk wrote a piece about Seahawks quarterback options for SeattleSports.com, but the real question is what comes next and what do you want to happen next? Salk offered four options: Option 1: Baker Mayfield, Option 2: Drew Lock, Option 3: Geno Smith, Option 4: someone else? Shannon Drayer joins from Houston to address some of the M's offensive issues. Brock Huard's daily visit covers the Seahawks QB options and their scheduled trip to Germany.

Another night of no run support behind Chris Flexen's strong start for the Mariners and fall to the Astros 4-0. Salk's level of uneasiness is rising but not quite concerned yet with the offensive struggles. How much patience should M's fans have with the young players? Seahawks announced to face the Buccaneers in Munich on November 13 and Salk tells us a story about his only trip to Germany. Salk is surprised to like the mental health comments made by Titans QB Ryan Tannehill.

TMZ twisted an interview with Seahawks first round draft pick Charles Cross' mother to make it sound like she demanded that he buy her a house. Salk says this is how guys end up jaded when it comes to the media. Then, Brock Huard joins the show to discuss the name image and likeness debate involving Pitt player Jordan Addison.

Our weekly conversation with Joe Fann is the first since the biggest Seahawks draft in a decade and naturally, Joe Fann agrees and disagrees with some of the moves made by the team. Salk asks Joe how he feels about the latest Mariners road trip and if he is concerned. We revisit the earlier conversation from Dane Brugler (The Athletic) about the draft and his new article released with his assessment on the Seahawks picks.

Salk opens the show by asking if there is any level of concern with the Mariners based on how they have looked over the past 4 games and if you believe the Seahawks are actually in a rebuild even if Pete Carroll won't use those words. Dane Brugler (The Athletic) has a new article on the draft and assessments for each team and even a way-too-early-2023 draft preview who joins Salk to share his thoughts on how the Seahawks did in this year's draft.

Salk tries to find the word that best describes how he feels about the lack of Mariners offense and thinks it feels between not-concerned and concerned; not alarming, but not nothing, either. He shares the good and bad news of what we've seen on this most recent road trip before offering a potential solution to shake things up. It's "Take the L" Tuesday and we hand out L's to the NFL Draft, NY Mets and Deondre Hopkins before Brock Huard argues with Salk about some new Name/Image/Likeness drama.

Salk believes this Seahawks draft was a clear indication that Pete & John believe in Clint Hurtt and Shane Waldron and showed a commitment to the coordinators and the players who best fit their schemes. We get a special extended segment with Brock Huard who had a lot to share about the Draft with his experience covering these players during their college careers. He is especially excited about the second round pick of Kenneth Walker III, the RB out of Michigan State.

The Seahawks draft couldn't have gone much better. Salk says Seahawks fans needed this after what has been a different story over recent years. Rough weekend for M's with Brash as Matt Brash struggled Friday and Robbie Ray had one bad inning that cost them Saturday's game, but they rebounded with Gilbert looking strong yesterday and Julio hit his first HR. Matty Beniers finishes with 8 points in nine games but the Kraken finished 27-49-6 (3rd worst in NHL). Maura takes us Around the Weekend in sports and breaks down the Seahawks picks and Kenny Pickett being the only QB selected before the 3rd round.
