Did the Steelers once again offer the blueprint how to beat Lamar Jackson and the Ravens?The “Dugar Report” with Michael-Shawn Dugar, The Athletic as he joins Jason “Puck” Puckett for his brand new weekly appearance taking the latest with the Seattle Seahawks. Mike and Puck get right into the win over the 49ers and what was the single biggest reason for the win. Mike told Puck that Mike Macdonald offered a different tone than what Pete Carroll would always preach. It was great to have Abe Lucas back on the field and you could tell immediately that he was a difference maker and he raised the play of the entire offensive line. Geno Smith continues to be hot topic with fans and media and showed again with his last second drive why he continues to be such a polarizing topic and player. Mike gets into a very interesting discussion with Puck on the team building philosophy of Mike Macdonald and how it’s different than the rest of the league thinking and how it harkens back to an older style of football. They also discuss the 49ers window and look ahead to the Seahawks matchup with the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday. Lastly, Puck wraps up the Thursday show with, “Hey, What the Puck!?” Money is not everything for everyone. Washington State defensive tackle David Gusta illustrated that this week with Puck.

Rob Staton, SeahawksDraftBlog.comjoins Jason “Puck” Puckett to discuss the Seahawks remarkable win over San Francisco. Rob proclaims the 49ers finished and their window closed to make a run at the Super Bowl. They discuss the up and down play of Geno Smith and get into the discussion of whether to pay him or not pay him. It’s a subject that is driving Rob mad! Should the Seahawks drop everything and sign Ernest Jones to a contract? Rob and Puck are both an agreement that it’s way too early and let the season play out before you come to any conclusion. They also can’t figure out why Pro Football Focus (PFF) does not like Jones. Can you believe the Seahawks have a shot at first place in the NFC West?! Puck and Rob can’t and that’s what makes sports fun.

That led to a conversation about the changing landscape of college football and will there be a day where all the West coast teams play in one conference again. Puck plays a soundbite from WSU defensive tackle David Gusta about the world of the transfer portal and the world of tampering by other college coaches. Gusta is Puck’s guest this week on Coug’s Corner, which you can find on YouTube, Apple, Spotify and up at PuckSports.com. The NCAA and college football need to get a handle on tampering and the NIL before it truly gets out of hand. Before Jim leaves, both discuss the top of Ernest Jones and why so many people after just three games want to sign him up immediately. Also, the boys had a good laugh at the decision looming for Jedd Fisch with who he’s going to start at quarterback against Oregon.

Washington State defensive tackle David Gusta joined Jason “Puck” Puckett for this weeks Coug’s Corner brought to you by the Cougar Collective and Flatstick Pub. Puck and David get into a wide ranging conversation that ranges everything from his upbringing, traveling to different countries, being accountable after the New Mexico loss, dislike of the transfer portal, impact of NIL, coaches tampering and his love for Pullman. David tells Puck that he’s avid traveler that has taken him to Japan, Singapore, Bali and Tahiti. David said it’s give him great perspective on life and how others live. How did the team handle the loss to New Mexico? David shares insights to how he and other team leaders reacted afterward. David admitted that his actions and behavior weren’t the best. Tampering has been going on and David details what it’s been like to deal with coaches calling him to join their team. Would David ever consider going into the portal or is he fully committed to WSU? What about the impact of the NIL? Lastly, David details his love for Pullman and that it wasn’t always the case, but as he’s gotten older it’s a town he couldn’t ever imagine being anywhere else.

On this weeks ‘Old Crimson, Jason “Puck” Puckett is once again joined by Paul Sorensen, Jim Moore and Jamey Vinnick from Cougfan.com The boys get right into the loss to New Mexico, which has now kicked them out of the College Football playoff discussion. Once again the Cougars defense failed to deliver and Puck brought up the point that he would like to see a coaching change at the defensive coordinator position or at least have Jake Dickert take over play calling duties. They question the offensive strategy under Ben Arbuckle and wonder why he went away from the running game so quickly in the second half when it was working so effectively in the first half? Should the Cougs incorporate more zone read for John Mateer moving forward? And, again the problem with the Air Raid is their lack of commitment to staying consistent with the rushing attack. Dickert made headlines this week when he said Oregon State are not there buddies. Some in the Cougars community have taken issue with what he said. Paul and Puck didn’t see the problem with what he said, but Jim did and they discuss. Lastly, now that the carrot of the playoffs is over, what motivates the team for the last two weeks?

On Tuesday’s Daily Puck Drop, Jason “Puck” Puckett is joined by his weekly guests, Danny Kelly, The Ringer and John Canzano, JohnCanzano.com. Puck opens up the show discussing the comments from WSU coach Jake Dickert about Oregon State not being their “buddies.” Puck shares his thoughts that some fans that are upset with the comments are off base. The Seahawks were gifted a favor in their win over the 49ers because the officials screwed up a timeout that should have been a penalty. Danny Kelly, The Ringer, joins Jason “Puck” Puckett to rap about the NFL, Seahawks, the Legion of Boom, Earl Thomas and fantasy football. Danny and Puck both agree that the Seahawks season is so dumb and fun at the same time and they went from a week ago thinking the season was over to now looking ahead to this week and knowing they have a shot at first place in the NFC West! Earl Thomas is back! Puck and Danny go down the rabbit hole of talking about the Legion of Boom. Devon Witherspoon is the closest thing to the L.O.B. that they have had since that group was on the field. Expectations have now changed for the Seahawks and it’s incredible to watch and follow this team week in and week out. The Seahawks can be in first place this weekend which is incredible to think of! The Jets are still a disaster and Aaron Rogers has fired another member of the team. Puck and Danny have put Rogers on “The Barge” out to the pacific ocean. Where does Danny want Deion Sanders to land in the NFL next season? Danny also answers fantasy football questions with “Waiver Wire Tuesday.” John Canzano, JohnCanzano.com joins Jason “Puck” Puckett for his weekly chat about all things college football. They jump right into the discussion about Jake Dickert’s comments about Oregon State. Was he in the wrong about what he said?Jake Dickert has other problems on the field, specifically in regards to his defense and offensive play calling. Puck this a change needs to be made with his defensive coordinator and suggests that Dickert take over the play calling. In regards to the offense, is the “Air Raid” truly the offense that Dickert wants? Does it properly take advantage of the skill set of John Mateer?Oregon survived against Wisconsin. John points out that it’s a tired football team. John also shares his thoughts on the matchup between Oregon and Washington in two weeks. John thinks it will be a blowout. Will Jedd Fisch turn to Demond Williams against Oregon or stick with Will Rogers?Is the SEC truly the best conference in football and do they deserve the majority of the teams?Lastly, since Puck is off next week, John offers up his favorite Thanksgiving meals. Finally, Puck wraps up the show with “Hey, What the Puck!?” Fans need to calm down about the Jake Dickert comments about Oregon State. He was right. He said the uncomfortable truth out loud and people don’t like hearing it.

On today’s Daily Puck Drop, Jason “Puck” Puckett is joined by Tim Booth, Seattle Times and Curtis Crabtree, FOX 13 for the Ground Puck Seahawks Podcast. Puck starts off the show without Jim Moore, who is out sick, talking bout the Seahawks win and that without a doubt it was a signature win for Mike Macdonald. The Seahawks season was on the brink and they were able to pull off a great win on the road. Geno was great on the final drive and the defense looked like how we all thought Mike Macdonald’s defense was going to look. Puck switched gears and talked about the Cougars loss to New Mexico and once again the defense continues to be an issue. Puck thinks a change needs to be made with their defensive coordinator and let Jake Dickert just call the defense for the final two games of the season. But, Puck could sense a loss was coming and it finally did. Tim Booth, Seattle Times and Curtis Crabtree, FOX 13 join Jason “Puck” Puckett for the Ground Puck Seahawks Podcast brought to you by Georgetown Brewery. All three agree that was clearly the best win of the season and one of the best wins for the Seahawks in the last several years. The defense was no doubt the story from the game, but the performance of Geno Smith, especially on the final drive was quintessential the “Geno Smith Roller Coaster” experience! Offensive line looked better with Abe Lucas back and Olu Oluwatimi playing center. However, as the three discussed, the running game is still very much an issue. Devon Witherspoon was everywhere and just showed why he’s such an unbelievable weapon for Macdonald. The play of Tyrice Knight and Ernest Jones was phenomenal and illustrated why a move at linebacker was necessary. All of sudden the Seahawks have a legitimate shot to claim first place in the division next week. Sports are dumb and terrific at the same time. Puck then returns and discusses the rest of the sports weekend with “Weekend Roundup.” The dud that was the Mike Tyson/Jake Paul fight, however, the women’s fight was incredible. Are the Steelers now a legit Super Bowl contender? Drew Lock can’t catch a break and big deal the Bills beat the Chiefs. Prove it in the playoffs. Finally, “Hey, What the Puck!?” Puck goes back to the Seahawks. Sports are incredibly stupid and incredibly awesome at the same time. Most Seahawks fans and Puck included had written this team off, but they found a way to have a gutsy physical win. A win that could very well define Mike Macdonald and the rest of the season.

On today’s Daily Puck Drop, Jason “Puck” Puckett was joined by Jim Moore, the Go-2-Guy who jumps on the show every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Also joining the show on Friday was former Seahawks linebacker Lofa Tatupu, PuckSports handicapper TroyWins.com and Chris Egan from KING 5. Puck and Jim start off the show talking about the news that Dave Sims is leaving the Mariners and will become the new radio voice of the New York Yankees. They discuss who should replace Dave on both radio and TV and Puck makes his pitch for Gary Hill on the radio side. What will they do on the TV side of things?Puck is worried about the Cougs game against New Mexico and Jim is starting to share those concerns. They welcome Lofa Tatupu to the show to talk about the Seahawks game against the 49ers and how the Seahawks could possibly pull off the upset. Lofa details his business ventures with Savage Brewery and 1937 Cannabis Farms. Lofa said he was surprised that the Seahawks moved on from their linebackers but understands the decision. Lofa sees a lack of physicality and play making ability from that group. Lofa is also surprised by the sloppiness and undisciplined football from the players and the coaches. As they turn their attention to the 49ers, the biggest question is how do you stop Christian McCaffrey? it will take the whole defense to focus and gang tackle, something as Lofa points out that they have been bad at this season. PuckSports handicapperTroyWins.com joins the boys to discuss the upcoming football weekend. Troy gives his “Lock of the Week” and all three introduce a new segment, “Dog of the Week.” Each picked an underdog and will keep tally for the rest of the season.

Egan has an addiction to Safeway chicken tenders and needs help. He also details his love for $150 turkeys and why does he keep buying them?Friday marks the start of the 16-team high school football playoffs and Egan details his KING 5 “Big Game of the Week” featuring Decatur High School. They also promote their high school playoff preview show that featured them and Todd Milles of ScoreBookLiveWA and Jon Manley of the Tacoma News-Tribune.

This was a miserable offseason for John Schneider, but how do they go about fixing it this offseason? Some tough decisions will have to be made on current players. But so far with Schneider running the ship it’s been rocky. Puck turns his attention to the Huskies and wonders why they would keep playing Will Rogers at quarterback and not hand the reigns over to Demond Williams. he plays a soundbite from his show with Elise Woodward and Jordan Reffett, “Puck the Huskies” asking them that very question.

Mike has pulled off on the side of the road as he is traveling to Philly to cover Thursday night football between the Eagles and the Commanders. Puck asked Mike a hypothetical question about whether or not Seahawks fans would switch Mike Macdonald and Ryan Grubb for Dan Quinn and Kliff Kingsbury…but, Puck says you have to add Jayden Daniels! That question leads to the discussion with the Bears and Caleb Williams. Who will be the next coach of the Bears? They obviously have to hire an offensive minded coach. Would Lincoln Riley of USC be the perfect fit?What is wrong with the Dallas Cowboys and Jerry Jones? Also, Mike and Puck would be thrilled to see Deion Sanders land with the Cowboys…Amazing theater!

Metcalf and consider moving on from Geno Smith in the offseason?Finally, Puck wraps up with, “Hey, What the Puck!?” Lebron James is not human and is a cyborg! Appreciate what he is doing at his age. You’ll never see it again.

Ryan Divish, Seattle Times, joins the show for his “Cold Stove” M’s offseason chatter with Jason “Puck” Puckett. Divish is once again substitute teaching at his former high school in Havre, Montana. They open up discussing why catcher Cal Raleigh should have won the Silver Slugger Award over Salvador Perez. The conversation then turns to their offseason look at the third base position. Currently the only internal option to play third base is Josh Rojas. Ryan thinks they’ll bring Rojas back but he won’t primarily be the third baseman and that they will have to find another option there, most likely via a trade. Ryan believes you could have a situation where Rojas and Dylan Moore will platoon at second base. Ryan also gets into the teams desire to bring Justin Turner back and their preference to trade Luis Castillo in the offseason. And, Divish contemplated the idea that Puck brought up about trading for Phillis third baseman Alec Bohm. Would that be a good fit for the M’s?

Rob Staton, SeahawksDraftBlog.com, joins Jason “Puck” Puckett for his weekly visit. They discuss the release of Tyrel Dodson. How bad of an offseason did John Schneider have?Does Rob fee like Puck in wanting the team to lose out if they can’t get wins in the next two weeks? What will the offseason have in store for D.K.

They also touch in on the breaking news that Abe Lucas has been activated off the PUP list and will play Sunday against the 49ers. How healthy and effective will Lucas be? That remains a big question mark. Puck tells Jim that he missed a great basketball game on Tuesday night between the Mavericks and Warriors with Klay Thompson’s homecoming. Crowd was great. The play was sensational. But, on Klay’s night, it was Steph Curry stealing the show. Rob Staton, SeahawksDraftBlog.com, joins Jason “Puck” Puckett for his weekly visit.

This weeks ‘Old Crimson Cougars Podcast with Jason “Puck” Puckett and Paul Sorensen, Jim Moore and Jamey Vinnick, Cougfan.com. They take a quick look back at the Utah State game and chatted how it was a relatively easy win. Puck did wonder why John Mateer was playing late into the game, but understood that Jake Dickert probably wanted some style points. The majority of the conversation surrounds the future of quarterback John Mateer. How much will it cost to keep Mateer around? Paul tells the boys that he has already heard that Mateer has a seven-figure offer on the table from another school. Paul didn’t specifically know the school, but the poaching and competition has already started for Mateer. Can the Cougs compete on that level? There is obviously a price tag for anyone and they all agreed that if Mateer receives over a million dollars to play football, than he should take that, because anyone would do that. They hope he doesn’t, but they understand why he would. They chat about the upcoming against New Mexico and Paul and Puck try to convince Jim that it will be a much harder game than he thinks. Jim is cocky about the game and doesn’t think Paul and Puck should be all that concerned. They wrap up the show talking about the job Jake Dickert has done and they all agree he’s done a masterful job of navigating this crazy football season and keeping his team focused on each week and not looking ahead.

On this weeks Cougs Corner, host Jason “Puck” Puckett is joined by Washington State linebacker Keith Brown. Brown talks about his journey from Lebanon, Oregon to Eugene to Louisville and now to Pullman. Brown details his upbringing in Lebanon and why it has shaped him to be the player and person he is today. Keith told Puck that when he transferred to Louisville he felt lost, but coming to Pullman he once again found his love for football and he credits Jack Dickert for that love. The Cougs have three games left in the season, how difficult is to stay focused on the one game at a time mentality? Keith does acknowledge the difficulties with that perspective but says it’s been their mindset all season long.

John Canzano, JohnCanzano.comjoins Jason “Puck” Puckett for his weekly look into college football. They jump right into the discussion surrounding WSU quarterback John Mateer. What would he fetch money wise in the transfer portal? John estimates that the going rate for a top QB is over a million dollars. Can the Cougs afford to keep Mateer around? Does he get a sense that Mateer wants to look elsewhere or is he happy in Pullman? Should Jedd Fisch move on from Will Rogers and start Demond Williams the rest of the season. The Huskies are not going to a major bowl game so why keep playing Rogers? John and Puck both agree that the NIL has something to do with the decision surrounding Rogers. What are the expectations for the Cougars and the college football rankings tonight and what type of chaos do they need in front of them to sneak in to the CFP. John was on the scene in Utah covering the “Holy War” between Utah and BYU. He reacts to the scene where the Utah AD claims that the game was stolen from them. Utah does not have an exit fee and can leave the Big 12 any time they want, would they jump and come back to the Pac-12? John dishes on those chances. Lastly, John and Puck talk about the passing of former Blazers broadcaster Brian Wheeler. A gentle and troubled sole.
