00:00What do you make it a Super Bowl?
00:01I mean, how do you look at these two teams going into this?
00:05Is it Seattle Super Bowl to lose?
00:08I'm really scared of New England, Dan.
00:09And you know me.
00:10I've been a Seahawk fan ever since I was a kid.
00:11So I've been going on a lot of shows talking about this team
00:14and how proud I am and just love the new –
00:17like McDonald and his coaching staff totally turned this team around.
00:20And no offense to Pete Carroll.
00:22He was a really good guy.
00:23But it was time to go and you saw what happened with the Raiders.
00:25McDonald's from the Michigan tree, the Baltimore Ravens tree,
00:28and Kubiak's done a great job with the offense.
00:30But I'm concerned about New England.
00:32Their defense has been absolutely fantastic.
00:34The last three weeks into the playoffs, you know,
00:36they've really shut down teams.
00:38But Seattle, the one thing I'm happy about is Sam Darnold
00:41getting that monkey off his back and telling the media to,
00:43you know what, stick it where the sun don't shine.
00:45Because he took a lot of abuse this year.
00:48And when push came to shove, after throwing six interceptions
00:51in the first game, he came back and had over 300 yards,
00:54three touchdowns, no picks in the NFC Championship game
00:56against the Rams.
00:57This is it for Seattle, though.
00:59They have to find another thing to do other than go to JSN, Dan.
01:02You know what the Patriots will do.
01:03Take away your best player.
01:05Kenneth Walker's been fantastic.
01:07But Cooper Cup is going to be one of those guys.
01:09And know what?
01:10He's a Super Bowl MVP.
01:11In the last two games, he's had nine catches.
01:13And before that, you know, one, two, three.
01:15He's getting way more involved in the offense right now.
01:18And I already made a prop bet on George Helani,
01:20the Boise State running back Seattle's backup,
01:23over eight and a half receiving yards.
01:24As I mentioned before, three catches for 27, averaging nine
01:28in the game against the Rams.
01:29Walker can't be on the field all the time.
01:31So watch out for Helani to get balls out of the backfield.
01:34His rushing's not great, but he catches balls.
01:36It's kind of like a bowling ball, Dan.
01:37You get him in motion, bam, bam, bam.
01:39He'll come knock you out.
01:40So I think that number is a little bit too light.
01:43Barner for Seattle, too, over 22 and a half receiving yards.
01:48Well, I can understand a bowling ball, as you can tell here.
01:51So, yes, thank you very much.
01:53How about the coaching staff?
01:55And I've been talking about this all day here, Cam.
01:58I mean, Josh McDaniels, you have Clint Kubiak,
02:02you have Mike McDaniel, and you have Mike Vrabel.
02:05I don't think you can ask for a better coaching staff than you have with these
02:09two football teams for Super Bowl Sunday.
02:12Excellent point, Dan.
02:13And think about Vrabel, too.
02:14Guy's been to Super Bowls with the Patriots and now coaching.
02:17That's one thing I'm worried about, too.
02:19Like, Mike McDonald has been fantastic,
02:21but this is his first trip to the big dance, right?
02:23Seattle has had a couple coaches there, but take a look at New England.
02:26All their guys, multiple appearances at the Super Bowl.
02:30They know how to handle the stupid media questions.
02:32They know how to handle the bye week.
02:34And that's very, very concerning.
02:35If you look, that number hasn't moved at all.
02:37They're stuck at four and a half.
02:38They don't want to move it up.
02:39They don't want to move it down.
02:40They think it's perfect.
02:41But I'll tell you, Dan, one thing, as a fan of a team,
02:44and this is a great thing, finally seeing your team in the Super Bowl,
02:47I don't care about points, spreads, or whatever.
02:49This is the thing.
02:50Win the damn game.
02:51So basically what I'm doing from a gambling perspective
02:54is just putting a bunch of money line parlays together with NHL games,
02:57other futures, and I'm going to have Seattle just to win the damn game.
03:01I don't care.
03:01I prefer it by five or more.
03:03But you know what I mean?
03:04Just win, get it done, and get our second Super Bowl.
03:06I told you, Dan, I still have nightmares about the Marshawn Lynch game.
03:09Like I'm literally turning 51, and I wake up and go,
03:13I can't believe we didn't win that Super Bowl,
03:14and it's versus the Patriots.
03:16I just see red when I see the Patriots after that game.
