“They would have had to cut my foot off before I didn't play in Super Bowl.” Nick Emmanwori They say Defense wins championships, and the Seattle Seahawks backed that statement up with one of the fiercest units! Keeping up Pivot tradition, we travled to the home of the world champions post Super Bowl to sit down with Nick Emmanwori, the Seattle Seahawks' rookie safety who defied the odds and finished his first NFL season on top of the league. Nick takes us inside an unforgettable year — from his Nigerian roots to being selected as the 35th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, to becoming an anchor of Seattle's defense and a key contributor to their championship run. We get into the biggest question looming Super Bowl week when a video of Nick surfaced not being able to walk as he opens up on the ankle injury scare heard round the football world as he shares missing the biggest game of his life was never an option and what he did to push through the unknown to stay locked in mentally and physically to help his team win the Lombardi. He takes Ryan, Channing and Fred into the locker room mentality to paint a picture of what Seattle truly built the past year and why he trusts a repeat is not off the table, recognizing all the pieces that need too fall in place to go back to back. Beyond the big game, we dive deep into the ups and downs of his rookie campaign, falling to the second round of draft and rebounding with the early-season growth that earned him Defensive Rookie of the Year buzz and how he battled adversity to find his confidence on the biggest stages. Relying on veteran leadership, Seattle's locker room bonded together on a mission to never let outside noise affect the team goal which created the NFL's No. 1 ranked defense, known as the "Dark side". He opens up about his bond with head coach Mike Macdonald and what he had to do to soak in all of the football knowledge to adapt to X & O schemes that elevated his play. Nick also opens up about the bond with Sam Darnold, whose own redemption arc culminated in a sturdy Super Bowl performance — proving that heart and leadership can outweigh the critics. The guys reflect on resilience, leadership, and the lessons learned in a season that none of his team will ever forget. And we couldn't not ask about the women in his life, from his mom's viral interview Super Bowl week to Dawn Stalely wearing his jersey to his girlfriend, Raven Johnson's unconditional support...this conversation covers it all. From draft dreams to the Lombardi Trophy, this is the inside story of a rookie who refused to be ordinary and a team that rewrote the championship narrative.

He also walks through the playoff run, the Super Bowl preparation, halftime adjustments, and what Coach Macdonald was drawing up on the sideline.

In this solo riff, Scott Grates brings the heat with a timely reminder that championship moments - whether in sports or in business, don't happen by accident. Drawing inspiration from a visualization exercise led by Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald years before a Super Bowl victory, Scott challenges listeners to do the same for their own business: to stop winging it, and start seeing it. Because if you haven't clearly visualized what winning looks like, how can you possibly build it?This episode isn't about hype or motivational fluff - it's about getting honest, focused, and intentional with your goals. Scott breaks down how identity drives performance, why consistency beats flash, and how referrals and relationships are earned in the dark before they're celebrated in the light. It's a mindset reset for RDR Nation.

RUNDOWN Mitch and Hotshot Scott open Episode 370 trying to process the strange calm that followed the Seahawks' 29–13 Super Bowl win, debating whether a championship can feel almost too controlled. The conversation reflects on Seattle's sustained success over the past two decades, Sam Darnold's improbable Super Bowl run, and why early power rankings already underrating the Seahawks feel laughably disconnected from reality. Ray Roberts joins Mitch Levy to explain why he never wavered in his Super Bowl prediction, breaking down how Seattle's physical dominance, defensive structure, and commitment to the run made the Patriots non-threatening from the opening drive. Ray details why the game was effectively decided by halftime, how Kenneth Walker and the offensive line wore New England down, and why this Seahawks team's rare level of connectedness separated them from past contenders. Jason Puckett joins Mitch to break down why the Seahawks' Super Bowl 60 win unfolded almost perfectly according to script, from defensive domination to a controlled, mistake-free performance by Sam Darnold. Puck explains how Seattle's pass rush, disguised coverages, and relentless pressure overwhelmed New England, while Kenneth Walker's patience and explosiveness anchored the offense. Mitch is joined by Brady Henderson and Jacson Bevens for a celebratory Seahawks No-Table following Seattle's 29–13 win over the Patriots in Super Bowl 60. The conversation looks ahead to roster decisions and whether this Mike Macdonald defense deserves comparison to the Legion of Boom. Mitch reconnects with Professor Slick to relive the Seahawks' Super Bowl 60. Slick reflects on where this title ranks among the greatest moments of his sports-fan life, why national media missed the story entirely, and how Seattle's defense and Kenneth Walker controlled the game from start to finish.

The conversation dissects Seattle's defensive dominance, Michael Dickson's hidden-impact special teams performance, Devin Witherspoon's breakout night, and how this unit compares stylistically — but not structurally — to the Legion of Boom.
