Time To Sit Darnold

It has been rough for the quarterbacks

her in Washington State so far this

season.

The Huskies had to take out Demond 

Williams Jr. in the end of the first half

and Friday night Elijah Brown will start.

Saturday the Cougars are placing their

quarterback though not hurt but a team

record of 1-5 which is understandable.

Sam Darnold was hurt in the very first 

series of the opening game and Drew

Lock replaced him and played three 

games. Now they are struggling with

Darnold back. Should he have waited 

another week or not. 

Is the problem with Seahawks as with

the Huskies and possibly the Cougars

the offensive line or is it that Darnold 

is throwing interceptions. Against the

Broncos Thursday night he was sacked

five times. How many of those were the

line or the running backs blocking to

or Darnold or all three.  

Is the problem the play calling or the

running game. Although the Seahawks 

running game wasn't great it was better

than the Broncos.  The Seahawks almost

won both the last two weeks.

Zach Charbonnet is expected back in

game seven against the Kansas City

do we give Darnold another week or

not. I am sure every Seahawks fan

has an opinion that is why they are 

fans. We will see. One thing we are

understanding why it is hard to win

two Super Bowls in a row. We don't 

have to panic yet.  Go Seahawks. 

Seahawks Lose In Overtime

The Seahawks lost Thursday night at

Denver against the Broncos 17-14.

The game was done by both teams 

defense or struggle by both offenses 

ot combination of both. Take a pick.

The Seahawks are now 3-3 after two

losses in five days they could have

won as well. 

Until the 4th quarter the Seahawks 

weren't doing well. The Seahawks 

were passing the ball a lot though

at times did have some success 

on the ground. 

The Seahawks total yardage was twice

of the Broncos.  If we went by how each

tesm did by seeing the stats only the 

Seahawks would have won but didn't.

The Seahawks had a field goal in the 

first quarter but nothing in the 2nd and

3rd quarters.  The Broncos scored twice

in the 2nd quarter on the ground thougj

didn't do much otherwise running the ball.

Both teams went scoreless in the 3rd quarter.

George Holani ran in on a touchdown with

5:41 remaining in regulation.  They made a

two conversation too. After stopping the

Broncos the Seahawks kicked a field goal 

with three seconds to go to tie.

Broncos win the coin toss but allowed the

Seahawks have the ball first.  They did

a good job driving then Sam Darnold 

threw an interception.  After moving a

little ways they kicked field goal to win.

The Seahawks next game will be on

October 25 at home against the KC

Chiefs. Hopefully get things squared 

away. Go Hawks 

Preview Washington State at Oregon State

The two teams from the old Pac 12 remaining 

are facing off this Saturday in Corvallis Oregon.

The Cougars who are struggling on the season 

as well as losing the first two games to begin

conference play.  The Beavers are 2-0 in the

conference while 4-2.

The Beavers are like the Cougars they have

a new head coach in JaMarcus Shepherd. 

If  the name sounds familiar he was assistant 

head coach and wide receivers coach at

Washington under DeBoer as well at Alabama.

Now his first head coach job in college 

football.

News came out that the Cougars are making .

a move at quarterback. Not a big surprise 

when your team is 1-5.  Redshirt freshman 

Owen Eshleman is going to start against

the Beavers See how much difference in

the game.  The Beavers are favored by

18.5 points. They are averaging 41.8

points a game. Last Saturday they beat 

San Diego State 66-14. 

Braden Atkinson is the starting quarterback 

for the Beavers and leads the nation throwing

21 touchdowns on the season so far. The 

Beavers are averaging 391.2 yards in the air.

Should see a lot of throwing the ball in this

one.

The Beavers freshman receiver Jesse Legree

is ranked number one nationally with 932 

yards and tied for first with 12 touchdowns.

Against San Diego State he broke the teams

recovered of consecutive games by  a Beavers

receiver with at least 100 yards in all six games

he had played.  See what the Cougars can do

to slow him down if they can.

On the ground the Beavers are averaging 119.6

with 8 touchdowns. Though not high in college 

football still a good amount of yards.

The Cougars are giving up 164.6 yards on the

ground and 4.7 on the average. We see the 

Beavers will do although they will be more

concerned with Beavers passing game.

The Cougars are giving up 214.6  in the air

but this will be a challenge for them.

Whether they  will win this will be an upset 

if the Cougars are able to win. Go Cougs.

Preview Washington Huskies at Purdue

News has come out that Desmond Williams Jr 

the Huskies starting quarterback is likely not

to start against Purdue this coming Friday

Elijah Brown who came in at the end of the 

first half last week is expected to start.

The Washington Huskies really need a win

after losing the first three games in the

Big Ten. They are not the only ones there 

are five teams without a win.  There are

four teams that are undefeated in the 

conference led by Indiana and UCLA overall.

The Huskies offense isn't the only side of

the ball that isn't playing well. After getting 

off to a good start the defense isn't playing 

well either. The running defense was expected 

to be good once again had digressed. Against 

Iowa they gave up 263 yards on the ground.

Purdue is 2-1 in conference while 3-3 overall.

They have won two straight including beating 

Minnesota last week 42-13. Last year the 

Huskies beat Purdue at home 49-13.  This year

the two teams are going in opposite directions.

Having Brown at quarterback we will see if

the offense will be better and the defense back

go back where it was earlier on in the season.

Ryan Browne is the starting quarterback for

Purdue in his second season as the leader.

His completion rate has gone up to 68.9 %

which is ten percent higher than last year.

Browne has thrown one interception this

season while having ten last year. He has

thrown nine touchdown passes which is

exactly the same he had all of last season.

Browne has thrown for 1549 yards which

means he should go over last year's total

easily as long as he stays healthy. He just

has just over 600 yards to reach last year's 

total.

Fame Ijeboi is Purdue's starting running

back by far has the most carries. Last week 

against Minnesota was his biggest game

running for 195 yards and three touchdowns.

The Huskies will have to stop him. Qb Browne

has the second most carries on the season

and averages 1.7 yards per so the Huskies

have to see him carry the ball.

Asaad Waseem is the Boilermakers top

receiver with 29 catches for 472 yards 

and has only one touchdown.  Xavier 

Townsend has 29 catches as well for

314 yards and two touchdown

The Boilermakers convert about 48 percent

of the time on third downs however their

defense gives up about the same. See if

the Huskies can do better this time.

The Boilermakers defense average 157.5

yards a game although did much better

against Minnesotassy week. The Huskies

offensive line making changes over the 

last couple weeks the running game will

improve . At least enough to help the 

passing game be effective.

Purdue defense is giving up an average of

243.5 yards in the air. Last week Brown 

threw for 251 yards and three touchdowns 

in just over two quarters with no interceptions 

so if he is anything around that at Purdue

the Huskies have a shot to win.  Purdue is

favored at  3.5 points this Friday. So the 

Huskies could do it.

Purdue linebacker Jaylen Jaylen leads 

with 40 tackles. Purdue goes with 3

lineman, 3 linebackers and 5 defensive 

backs. That is what many college teams

play now. No one on Purdue defense

has no more than one interception or

sacks. We hope the Huskies do better

then Minnesota last week although 

they did beat Washington.  Go Dawgs.

Preview Seahawks at Broncos

The Seattle Seahawks play the Denver Broncos 

this Thursday  evening this week so not many 

days off. Both teams will have practice differently 

than normal this week. 

The Seahawks and Broncos  have identical 

records heading into this game at 3-2.  How

many points scored for each team and 

against them.  The Seahawks are 2-1 at home 

while 1-1 on the road. They have scored 134

points while giving up 105. The Broncos are

2-0 at home while 1-2 on the road.  They 

have scored 97 points while 111 against.

When it comes to offense the Broncos

are averaging 19.4 points per game.

Running the ball they are average 86.2

per game while passing for 182.8 yards.

The opponent has averaged more in

both areas.  The Seahawks are averaging 

106 yards on the ground which is less

than the Broncos are giving up with

rookie Jadarian Price being out the last

couple weeks. 

Bo Nix former first round pick out of 

Oregon is Broncos starting quarterback.

This year he is completing 59.9 % of

his passes. He has 942 yards passing 

with six touchdowns and three interceptions.

His passing yardage is down from last year 

when they went to the league championship.

They have played a tough schedule early 

facing the Kansas City Chiefs a division for

in week one. The played Jacksonville in

week two when he threw for the most yards

288 on the season. In week three they beat 

the Rams in a close game 30 to 26 he threw

only 183 yards with two touchdowns and

one interception. The following week lost to

the 49ers 49 to 25, passing 218 and 1 td.

Sunday beat the Chargers  23 to 17. Nix

had his lowest passing day with only 123

yards and a touchdown. No interceptions 

the last two games. The Seahawks will 

want to get back to their winning ways

so it might be tough Thursday evening.

The Seahawks are 3-1 under MacDonald 

on Thursday nights. The Seahawks are

three point favorites right now. 

JK Dobbins is the Broncos starting running

back. He is the only running back who has 

played in all five games. By far the most 

carries with 64 for 224 yards and one TD.

RJ Harvey in four games with 15 carries 

for 56 yards. He has more passes completed 

than carries with 20 for 132 yards out of the

backfield. Former Washington Huskies Jonah

Coleman is the only other one with a running

touchdown however we won't see him as

he is on injured reserve.

Jaylen Waddle has the most catches by

a wide receiver with 18 for 204 and a td

against the 49ers. Cortland  Sutton is

the only other receiver in double digits

with 11 for 104 yards and a td against

the Chargers. The Broncos third wide 

receiver Pat Bryant is on injured reserve

however had a touchdown in the win

against the Rams.

See how the Seahawks will bounce back

against the Broncos. Go Hawks. 

Seattle Kraken This Past Week

Last Tuesday the Kraken lost their first 

game at home against the Vegas Golden 

Knights 6-2. Vegas is one of the favorites 

in the Pacific division. 

The Kraken are on a five game road trip

whivh ends this weekend. They have won

their first two games beating Detroit

Red Wings 6-3 on Friday and Washington 

Capitals on Sunday 6-3. They play the 

Philadelphia Flyers on Tuesday followed

by the Tampa Bay Lightning on Thursday 

and the Florida Panthers on Saturday. 

Vegas is at top of the Pacific division at

5-1. The Kraken are 4-2  and in 4th place.

The Redwings are last place of the Atlantic 

division at 1-3-1. The  Capitals are 3-2 in

the Metropolitan division in 4th place. The

Flyers are in the same division at 0-5-2.

The Kraken have a good shot to beat them

on Tuesday. 

The Lightning are on top of the Atlantic 

at 4-1 record. The Panthers 2-1-2 in

the Atlantic as well. This should be a 

successful road trip. Go Kraken.

Seahawks Lose A Crazy Game

The game didn't come down to who was

going to win . The SF 49ers kicked a field goal

under two minutes to take lead. Wide receiver 

Mike Evans seven catches for 113 yards on

the day for the 49ers.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba had a good game to

for the Seahawks. In the last two minutes 

he was hurt and had  to go out for a play.

When returning he missed a catch that he

should have made on third down. It was 

one of those days for both teams. The

Seahawks had to go for it on 4th down

at midfield. Jaxon caught a pass and 

tried to dive for the first down however 

he came short by about six inches with

55 seconds remaining in the game.

Who knows the Seahawks might have

kicked a field goal to tie if it has been

a first down or win on a touchdown we

will never know.

Final 49ers 32 Seahawks 29

Combined the two teams had seven

turnovers. The Seahawks had a critical 

one right at the end of the first half.

Both teams had turnovers in the second 

half to. Seahawks didn't look like they

would win in the third quarter but the 

49ers made critical turnovers as well.

The Seahawks scored 14 points in the

third quarter without any by the 49ers

The 49ers had led 21-13 at half time

when the Seahawks fumbled with 14

seconds left in the first  and recovered.

for a touchdown.

Brock Purdy completed 19 of  29 

passes for 189 yards,  2 td's and one

interception. He was sacked 4 times 

Going into the game he had not been

sacked on the season.

Ssm Darnold completed 18 of 29 

passes with one TD, two interceptions,

was sacked 5 times and 195 yards.

Not the greatest game by Sam but 

he fought for it.

Emanuel Wilson ran the ball 20 times

for 61 yards and a touchdown. 

 Now the Seahawks go back to the

drawing table. They have a short 

week playing the Broncos on Thursday

 night in Denver. Go Hawks.
