400: Geno Smith – 2022 NFL Comeback Player of the Year

In this milestone episode, we take a look back at the Super Bowl and how it could inform the Seahawks offseason strategy. Where does the team need to improve to be able to compete with teams like the Eagles and Chiefs (or even the San Francisco 49ers). We also get to know Geno Smith a bit better after his latest appearance on the Pivot Podcast. We get insight behind some of the more controversial moments in his career and how he was thinking about hanging up his cleats before coming to Seattle.

Derek Carr has been released by the Las Vegas Raiders. We discuss how his situation is different than Geno's, and why he could end up getting a bigger contract compared to Smith. Plus, can the curse end already? Russell Wilson's charity came under scrutiny recently, but how much should he own responsibility for it? Trash talking 49ers players and “the government” get grouped together in this week's Do Better segment, while a Seahawks fan and combination of MVP voter and vote recipient earn a spot in Better at Life.

Seahawks Draft Targets: Shrine Bowl and Draft Analysis with EJ Snyder of Bootleg Football

EJ Snyder of Bootleg Football is back on the show this week as we talk about the East-West Shrine Bowl stand outs and which players should be on the radar of Seahawks fans. One player in particular who stood out was wide receiver Zay Flowers, who turned heads immediately and could now be a first round pick.

What should the Seahawks do with their top 5 pick? The Bears are widely believed to be trading out of the top spot. Should Seattle make a move for quarterback or the top defensive player? Or should they simply stay put and hope for chaos at the top of the draft and that one of the top two defensive players falls to that fifth spot? EJ offers his thoughts on the Seahawks draft position and how it relates to Geno Smith.

399: Improving the defense is key to the 2023 offseason

As we put a bow on the 2022 season for the Seahawks, we talk about some of the milestones the team hit and the excitement for the future considering the rookies that showed potential. But will Geno Smith be a part of the Seahawks future? Should he be part of the future if the team's goal is to win a Super Bowl sometime in the next three years.

We take a look at the data in what successful teams have done in recent years and found that drafting a quarterback in the top 10 is a much bigger risk than drafting a defensive player in that same range. Plus, it has generally taken a top defense in points allowed to make a deep run into the postseason.

With free agency a topic to discuss over the next few weeks, we take our first look at the players who would be key for Seattle to re-sign and which ones could walk. There's one player in particular the Seahawks could go after if they wanted to make a big splash in free agency (if that player is available. But it would also be fun if they traded for another future first rounder to give us another team that we could cheer for their demise.

To close the show, a former Seahawks player and the Panini trading card company get called out to Do Better. Finally, the latest space effort and the fundraising drive by our Flock get the Better at Life honors.
