Bill Krueger, Root Sports, puts the finishing touches on the season for the Mariners. What led to them missing the playoffs again.

On today's Daily Puck Drop, Jason “Puck” Puckett is joined by Rob Staton, SeahawksDraftblog.com, John Canzano, JohnCanzano.com and Bill Krueger, ROOT Sports. Rob Staton, SeahawksDraftBlog.comjoins the show from the start to chat about the Seahawks win over Miami and the play of the defense.  Is the defense good or is it a result of the opponents they have faced?  Also, you are seeing a trend in the NFL with teams running the football more and it's a trend that will likely continue as the season moves forward.  So, as Puck and Rob discuss, old school football is back!   With all the compliments being thrown the way of the Seahawks, they still have issues on the offensive line, in particular Anthony Bradford. Puck and Rob can't figure out why they continue to play him and not give Christian Haynes a shot, but Rob does have a theory that he ran by Puck on why Bradford may be staying in there for now. Rob continues to gush over the play of Geno Smith and the offense despite them struggling in the middle of the game. D.K. Metcalf continues to be a force in the passing game and the running game looked much better with Zach Charbonnet this past weekend. Both Rob and Puck agreed that Charbonnet is a much better back than people give him credit for.  They wrap up their conversation  with thoughts on the rest of the NFC West and NFC and ask who is really better than Seattle right now?  Seattle is playing some really good football despite the opponents. John Canzano, JohnCanzano.com, is next up and they touch in on  the PAC-12's legal maneuvers, Gonzaga's potential addition to the conference, and how legitimate is John Mateer as a Heisman Trophy candidate?  They touch on Wazzu's chances of running the table and creating chaos in the college football playoffs, the impact of media on what teams get the chance to play in the playoffs, and what happens if the Pac-12 can't land UNLV and Air Force.  Where do they turn next?Lastly, Bill Krueger, ROOT Sports, joins Puck to talk Mariners baseball. They immediately jump into the performance of Bryce Miller and Bill suggests he's the best pitcher on the Mariners staff.  Julio Rodriguez is finishing the season strong and Puck asks Bill what he could do to get off to a better start at the beginning of the season.   Bill reminds Puck that the Mariners still have a shot at the playoffs and tells him not to give up hope.  They wrap up their chat with Bill reflecting on his time playing for the Oakland A's and how much that city and organization meant to him and how sad he is that they are leaving Oakland and that Major League baseball should be ashamed of themselves. Finally, “Hey, What the Puck!?”, Puck wonders why Joel Klatt of FOX has a problem with what Oregon State and Washington State are doing in rebuilding the conference?Rundown00:00 PuckSports Mobile App launch…Pac-12 news…NFL running game not dead 12:32 Rob Staton, SeahawksDraftblog.comjoins the show to talk Seahawks win over the Dolphins.  Play of the defense.
