Mike Salk

Salk starts the show with his angry fandom towards the "same old Mariners" fans and why he finds himself going between rooting for/against the Astros in the World Series. Maura and Justin still won't let him live it down. Yesterday's KJ Wright Show illuminated a lot about being a team player, putting egos aside, and Pete's competition for starting spots on the team regardless of what you've done in the past.

What is a reasonable expectation for the Seahawks to finish this year? Salk believes they can go 6-3 down the stretch to finish 11-6. Brock thinks 5-4 is more likely, but both have playoff hopes. Salk lays out his 5 Keys to the Seahawks finishing strong but HEALTH is the biggest. FOX Sports broadcaster Adam Amin will be on the Seahawks broadcast this Sunday and joins Brock & Salk to preview the game. Brock's 'Blue 88' answers: why are the Cardinals so dangerous Sunday, why is Sherman on the war-path for Russ and who is the most hate-able NFL franchise?

We continue the conversation we started with KJ Wright about Tyler Lockett's comments that no one is looking for the credit. Is that only sustainable for a certain period of time once a team starts having a lot of success? Then, Brock discusses the College Football Playoff Rankings in Washington Wednesday and Justin and Salk have a Ranked themed around All Souls Day.

KJ Wright-Says he got chills watching the Seahawks play Sunday because they are reminding him of the way the team started to come together in his early years in Seattle. He is also impressed by the physicality and confidence on defensive side of the ball and admits that he always felt competition for his own job.

Could the Mariners beat the Philadelphia Phillies in the World Series? The Phillies only hit 8 more HRs than the Mariners, but they're making the Astros look normal and it's driving Salk nuts. ESPN's Jeff Passan joins Brock & Salk and admits that some pitchers think Framber Valdez is cheating but others do not. Passan argues that McCullers wasn't tipping pitches but that maybe the Phillies just had a good gameplan. Brock's 'Blue 88' answers: why we’re the Seahawks a non player in the trade market, what would this season look like if Drew were the QB and what jumped out with first CFB rankings of the season?

Coach Carroll's #1 philosophy has been about competition and Salk wonders if Pete had lost some of that over the years once established players had their starting role and no longer had to compete for it. Salk also asks if Geno Smith could be considered an elite QB based on his recent play? He's playing & acting like one and he's the 36th highest-paid QB in the league, and he doesn't come with the baggage and other negatives that come with a franchise QB.

We continue to take your call confessing to your Seahawks sins. Then, we discuss how Geno Smith has turned himself into one of the best QB's in the league and bring you a Ranked themed around something Pete Carroll said about Geno yesterday.

We've been meaning to do this segment for a couple weeks, but the Seahawks have forced it to happen now! Brock, Maura, Justin and Salk all admit and/or confess to something that they need to get off their conscience, but Salk's is just so bad that we can't let it go. We open the phone lines for Seahawks fans to call in with their own confession and the answers range from serious to totally insane.

It sounds insane to say in Week 1, but after 8 weeks of watching the Seahawks and Geno Smith... we legitimately have to ask the question if Geno Smith would deserve MVP votes. Brock's 'Blue 88' answers the questions: What’s been one of the most dramatic improvements Waldron/Geno's offfense, will the Seahawks make a move before the 4 pm ET trade deadline and what was the football theory Collinsworth brought up Sunday night actually makes sense?

Salk starts the show with his Halloween night recap and claims he ate less than 10 pieces of candy as the "dad tax" from his daughter's Halloween candy stash, but is mostly upset about one encounter with the scariest costume he's ever seen. We revisit the Pete Carroll Show from yesterday to hear how happy Pete sounds with what he's witnessed through 8 weeks of football and the way he's characterized Geno Smith's resurgence and says he's just "one of the guys."
