00:00So, yeah, so tonight, Texans offense versus Seattle defense.

00:04The Seattle offense, boy, Robert Hensley sent you and I his notes for the game.

00:09Robert has notes, man.

00:10Robert's in the booth with Mark and Andre up there.

00:12He's on the trip.

00:13He produces.

00:13He'll join us on the – he does a great around the league segment with us

00:16on the pregame show.

00:17If you don't get to listen to the pregame show on Sunday mornings,

00:19we get started at 6 o'clock tonight.

00:21So take a listen.

00:22Robert joins us at like 6.30 tonight.

00:25He laid out all these numbers for the Seahawks offense,

00:28and there were two things that jumped out at me, Seth.

00:31One is they're really good in the numbers that matter to my people, the gamblers.

00:37Lead the league in yards per play, 6.3.

00:40Sam Darnold leads the NFL in yards per attempt at 9.6,

00:45which if you need context, just know that 9.6 is elite as elite gets in the NFL.

00:51Well, and this is the thing.

00:52I keep seeing a lot of people say, ooh, yeah, takes a lot of deep shots.

00:56Boy, the Texans defense is going to feast.

00:58No, it's – you need to understand that Sam Darnold's not an idiot anymore.

01:02He's very careful with the football.

01:03He's got the lowest turnover-worthy play rate, at least going into this last weekend in the league.

01:10Like, he's careful with the football.

01:12They do all of the things.

01:13I'm warning everybody right now.

01:15You're going to hear it on the broadcast tonight.

01:17Everything that Gary Kubiak used to talk about all the time,

01:22his son, Clint Kubiak, is the offensive coordinator,

01:24and they're doing it exactly the way it's supposed to be done.

01:27Their wide receivers block their butts off.

01:31They are – it's like everything.

01:32Every cliché, they're executing it.

01:36And that was my second thing I was going to say,

01:37is that all these numbers Robert sent us,

01:40smacks of 2012 Gary Kubiak offense.

01:43You know, not just the yards per play and the yards per attempt.

01:47It's the – this is not an aerial circus.

01:49They're only throwing the ball half the time,

01:51but Sam Darnold might end up leading the league in passing yards.

01:54That's – and I'm not exaggerating.

01:56He's top three in passing yards, and they pass it the least amount –

02:00or the lowest amount in the NFL.

02:02And real quick, Seth, on the wide receivers blocking –

02:06and I know it's – I'm going to – warning.

02:08PFF grade's about to be cited.

02:10But I think in extreme situations, it's worth citing

02:12that three of the six highest graded run-blocking wide receivers

02:16in the entire league are on the Seattle Seahawks.

02:20No, I honestly – I look at the PFF scores kind of like you do –

02:23like standardized testing.

02:25It's good at telling you about a group of people,

02:27but like the one individual, you never –

02:31like if you take a bunch of kids with high SAT scores,

02:33yeah, on average that group is going to do better in college academically.

02:38But when you go – when you try to use it for one individual,

02:41okay, there's going to be a few jackasses,

02:43there's going to be a few high performers and everything.

02:45Like PFF is the same thing.

02:46If you've got a bunch of guys who are high-graded,

02:48all right, yeah, that's a good unit.

02:50Three of the six highest-graded run-blockers in the NFL.

02:53Like not in the AFC West.

02:55Like, you know, there's how many?

02:56180 that qualify for grading on PFF,

03:00and they've got three of the best six in the NFL.

03:02All right, we're off and running.

03:03Yeah, so they – but they also – they don't –

03:05they don't have an Arian Foster.

03:06Like they're not running the ball that effectively.

03:09But they're doing it enough that they face a lot of loaded boxes.

03:12Like all – they run off – they line up in formations

03:17where people put eight in the box,

03:18and then it opens up things downfield.

03:20So –
