RUNDOWN   Mitch solves last week's "mafia lookalike" mystery — listeners decide he's a dead ringer for The Sopranos' Michael Imperioli. The guys riff through Goodfellas lore, Seahawks' second straight blowout win, and Von Miller's hilarious regret about choosing Washington over Seattle ("it's like turning down a girl who became a movie star"). Heartfelt condolences to the family of Lenny Wilkens, celebrating the Hall of Famer's legacy as both player and coach — and his decades as the Pacific Northwest's ultimate basketball statesman. Then it's back to football as the guys revel in another stress-free Seahawks blowout, highlighted by two identical sack-fumble touchdowns from Tyrese Knight and DeMarcus Lawrence. Mitch welcomes back Brady Henderson and Jacson Bevens for another Seahawks No-Table after a 44-22 dismantling of the Cardinals. The crew marvels at a team that suddenly looks like a legitimate Super Bowl contender, while debating the sloppy second half and the emerging run-game breakthrough. They dig into injury updates on Ernest Jones, and Jarran Reed, the trade for Rashid Shaheed, and the defense's uncanny "next-man-up" magic under Mike Macdonald. Mitch reconnects with Rick Neuheisel, presented by Taco Time Northwest, to unpack a wild week in college football — starting with Washington's shocking collapse in Madison. Rick calls it a "disaster," offers perspective on Jed Fisch's road woes, and shares how leadership, not logistics, separates winners from whiners. From there, the conversation races across the national landscape: Penn State's heartbreak at Happy Valley, Texas Tech's oil-fueled rise, and which Group of Five team might crash the playoff. Then Neuheisel dives into Lincoln Riley's number-swap trickery — calling it "legal but unethical" — before handing out Taco Time honors. Mitch reconvenes the Seattle Kraken No-Table with RJ Eskanos and Dylan Travers of Emerald City Hockey for the team's first check-in of the season. Despite a solid early record and a near-top Pacific Division standing, the panel wonders how sustainable it really is. RJ notes that the offense remains among the league's weakest, while Dylan credits new head coach Lane Lambert for installing a defense-first system that maximizes effort and structure.   GUESTS   Brady Henderson | Seahawks Insider, ESPN Jacson Bevens | Writer, Cigar Thoughts Rick Neuheisel | CBS College Football Analyst, Former Head Coach & Rose Bowl Champion RJ Eskanos | Co-Founder, Emerald City Hockey Dylan Travers | Analyst, Emerald City Hockey   TABLE OF CONTENTS   0:00 | From Mafia Mitch to Cher in Fresno — Episode 357 Starts with a Bang 14:40 | BEAT THE BOYS - Register at MitchUnfiltered.com 19:20 | From Lenny's Legacy to Mr. Playoffs: Seahawks Roll to 7–2 and Dream of the NFC's Top Seed 35:17 | GUEST: Seahawks No-Table; Déjà Vu Defense: Two Scoop-and-Scores, a Surging Run Game, and Seattle's NFC Statement Win 57:53 | GUEST: Rick Neuheisel; Disaster in Madison, Trickery in L.A., and Oil-Money Football: Rick Neuheisel Dares to Dip 1:29:42 | GUEST: Kraken No-Table; Effort, Defense, and a Little Luck: Can the Kraken Keep Floating Above the Ice? 1:49:57 | Other Stuff Segment: Sydney Sweeney's boyfriend "Scooter", Mariners free agency (Josh Naylor, Eugenio Suárez, Mitch Garver, bullpen decisions), debate on re-signing Suárez vs. internal options, Matt Kalil divorce/CamSoda "offer" saga, USC's Sam Huard fake-punt jersey trick, Mark Sanchez fired by FOX & replaced by Drew Brees, Erik Spoelstra house fire note, Antonio Brown arrest & attempted murder charges, Indiana volleyball assistant coach gambling infractions, Guardians pitchers betting scandal & "is everything rigged?" angst RIPs: Mia Hammond (21-year-old Washington women's soccer goalkeeper), Paul Tagliabue (former NFL commissioner), Marshawn Kneeland (Cowboys DE, 24), Victor Conte (BALCO figure), Dick Cheney (former U.S. Vice President), Diane Ladd (Oscar-nominated actress) HEADLINES: Donald Trump "deny visas to fat people" bit, Dave Ramsey's "15–20 houses for God" rant, Kim Kardashian underwear with built-in pubic hair, Matt Kalil "two Coke cans" closer gag

The Seahawks are like a tidal wave as they have overwhelmed teams each of the last three games, so Brock and Salk what has caused this stretch of success. They also look into the strides that Mike Macdonald has taken as a motiavtor, specifically citing Tyrice Knight and Riq Woolen as two guys who lost their starting roles and have stepped up in a big way over the lact couple weeks. They credit Macdonald for a good portion of that. In Blue 88, topics include why the Seahawks will be the undoing of Jonathan Gannon, the Seahawk that was most targeted in trade talks and what happened to UW against Wisconsin on Saturday.

Headlines and 12th man news with GREGG BELL (Tacoma News Tribune) Gregg shares his thoughts on the passing of Lenny Wilkens. The Seahawks 1st half was total domination yesterday. What did we see from this defense yesterday? It was run-heavy for the offense, but there were some sloppy moments for Sam Darnold and the offense. Injury updates and more! :30- The Dawgs blew it in Madison. The weather was awful, but UW can't blame it for the loss. They were incapable of getting anything going and gave the Badgers their first conference win. :35- We had an awful week in fact or fiction, but luckily Chuck is the only one who got a pick right last week and he's starting us off this morning! :45- We have missed hearing from Mike MacDonald!

The Seahawks dominate again! The Seahawks defense showed out and the run game finally got going as they routed the Cardinals 44-22 and it wasn't even THAT close. :30- Grab your Cold Turkey Sandwich, it's the Board of Scores and there were some wonky games in the NFL week 10! :45- Coach Bucky is here! - Which win was more impressive? The Hawks over the Cardinals or the Rams over the 49ers? - Which was the more gut-wrenching loss? The Mariners in game 7 of the ALCS or the Sounders game 3 shootout loss? - Remembering the great Lenny Wilkens. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

MMQB with HUGH MILLEN We have another Seahawks blowout victory to talk about and Hugh starts off our conversation with praise for the Hawks and a note that the score doesn't reflect the level of dominance. Does Hugh ever remember seeing the same play happen twice in one game and how was the fumble/touchdown able to happen twice? :30- MMQB continues with Hugh as we break down the Sam Darnold-JSN tandem and the play of Jalen Sundell. :45- We wrap up the first hour of MMQB with Hugh See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Then we head west to Seattle, where Mike Macdonald's Seahawks are reshaping their offense, rebuilding their wide receiver room, and trying to find their identity in the tough NFC West.

Brock and Lefko discuss the health of the Seahawks going into Sunday's game against the Cardinals and what it could mean for the debut of Rashid Shaheed. They also analyze why this Cardinals matchup will be different for the Seahawks than the last time these two teams played and a couple of the Cardinals players that will be the difference makers. In Blue 88, topics include Colin Cowherd's high praise of Sam Darnold, the most impressive aspect of the Seahawks pass rush group and one thing that Mike Macdonald demands from Klint Kubiak.

NFL Insider James Palmer joins the show to talk about what he makes of the Seahawks following their blowout win against the Commanders and how they stack up in the NFC West. // Four Down Territory: 1st Down: How did the Cowboys create explosive plays against the Cardinals? 2nd Down: What's another example of JSN’s versatility? 3rd Down: What would be your approach if you were the Cardinals? 4th Down: Other than the hawks, what's your game of the week? // Bump & Curtis square off in this week’s gameshow: Cardinals, Cardinals, Cardinals! // We take a listen into Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald’s press conference ahead of their Week 10 matchup against the Cardinals 

Mike Macdonald and Steve Raible discuss the Seahawks' explosive offense and a big matchup at home against the Arizona Cardinals this Sunday.

Sam Darnold and Jaxon Smith-Njigba were handed PFF's midseason MVP and Offensive Player of ther Year, so Brock and Salk discuss both of their incredible starts, discuss if this is what it's supposed to feel like for a dominant football team and what the Seahawks continue to do very well. They then debate what Jorge Polanco's free agent market will look like and if the Mariners could ultimately end up bringing him back. In Blue 88, Brock takes a look at what area the Seahawks defense needs to go from good to great, some strengths of the Cardinals and how Mike Macdonald channeled some of Chris Petersen.

Send us a textThe calendar flips to November and the vibes split: family milestones and Marine pride on one side, then a blunt Falcons reckoning on the other. We lay out why Atlanta's defense is doing enough, why the offense isn't, and how “take the points” is more than a motto—it's the difference between winning and wasting solid game scripts. From playcalling that doesn't create layups to a rookie QB who needs a coordinator with real reps, we make the case for building an identity that travels and a sideline standard that doesn't flinch in the red zone.We widen the lens to the coaching tree Atlanta didn't climb—names like Mike Macdonald, Jim Harbaugh, and Ben Johnson—and talk about what a serious reset would require if ownership fires Raheem. Then we break down the Cowboys' roster calculus, why interior pressure can be smarter currency than edge stardom, and how good front offices use in-season trades to write their offseason plan with real data.The conversation pivots to the NBA's soul: Ja Morant, a Euro-leaning coaching trend, and a league sliding into five-out sameness that blunts star power. We argue for letting elite players dictate pressure, playing real minutes when it matters, and rebuilding a TV product that feels urgent instead of generic. Finally, we hit college football's ranking optics, brand gravity, and the buyout arms race, making a case for shorter initial contracts and smarter schedule standards.Stick around for our weekly picks across college and the NFL, plus a few spicy predictions that could swing your weekend. If this episode hits a nerve, share it with a friend, leave a quick review, and tell us the one move your team must make before it all slips away.Support the show

This Seahawks team, for as good as they are, are very different from the Legion of Boom regime. And Salk very much believes in that, so he discusses. Later, they re-air their conversation with Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald after the team's dominating win over the Commanders.

Brock stirred up a question to Salk last night about the idea of the Seahawks trading for Myles Garrett, so they talk through it (and Salk doesn't love the answer).

RUNDOWN   Is Mitch secretly a MOBSTER? The guys ride the high of a Seahawks blowout while fretting an Earnest Jones IV injury and torching D.C.'s awful turf, then rip through birthday/lore nuggets. An unforgettable World Series finish, seen through a Seattle lens—taking petty joy in Toronto's collapse while admitting Game 7 (and the under-discussed, error-filled Game 6) will haunt Mariners fans for years. Then it's all Seahawks: a near-perfect beatdown in D.C., vintage throwback uniforms, and why John Schneider should chase help at WR/OL/LB before the deadline. Mitch, Brady, and Jacson break down Seattle's 38–14 primetime rout of Washington — a game where both sides of the ball finally clicked. They discuss Sam Darnold's near-perfect night (one of only four 97+ QBRs in the NFL this season — three belonging to him), Mike Macdonald's astounding 11–1 road record, and the play-calling brilliance driving the offense. Rick Neuheisel joins Mitch to break down a wild week in college football — from the bloated buyouts fueling a $160 million coaching carousel to Washington's unlikely playoff path. The two dive into quarterback drama, "alma mater alimony," and the rise of dual-threat sensation Demond Williams, before wrapping with Taco Time's weekly honors — including a nod to Oklahoma's kicker and his unforgettable Daisy Duke game-day look. Christian Caple joins Mitch to assess the Huskies' 6–2 season and the playoff math that could still put Washington in the 12-team field if they run the table. He breaks down the defense's ability to hang with Oregon, the tricky stretch at UCLA, and how Jed Fish's success could make him a hot-commodity coach with a star quarterback in tow.   GUESTS   Brady Henderson | Seahawks Insider, ESPN Jacson Bevens | Writer, Cigar Thoughts Rick Neuheisel | CBS College Football Analyst, Former Head Coach & Rose Bowl Champion Christian Caple | UW Football Insider, On Montlake   TABLE OF CONTENTS   0:00 | Mitch Gets Mistaken for a Mobster, Hotshot's Arrest-Video Obsession, and a Giddy Seahawks Sunday 20:12 | BEAT THE BOYS - Register at MitchUnfiltered.com 27:48 | Mariners Heartbreak, Dodgers Relief, and a Seahawks Surge with Trade-Deadline Stakes 46:58 | GUEST: Seahawks No-Table; Seahawks Dominate in D.C. — Darnold's Surge, McDonald's Mastery, and a 6–2 Statement 1:09:20 | GUEST: Rick Neuheisel; on the Coaching Carousel, Playoff Chaos, and the Short Shorts Heard 'Round the Nation 1:41:08 | GUEST: Christian Caple: on Washington's Playoff Chances, Jed Fish's Future, and the Rise of Demond Williams Jr. 2:04:56 | Other Stuff Segment: NFL 68-yard field goal record (JAX kicker Cam Little), NBA gambling/poker scandal (prop bets, x-ray glasses, star player tax lien), Pittsburgh radio host loses bet and gets nipple piercings, Scott Woodward's AD buyout saga (Jimbo Fisher, Brian Kelly, LSU governor, Woodward payout), Robert Englund gets Hollywood Walk of Fame star (Freddy Krueger story), Adrian Peterson's latest DWI and weapon arrest, Phil Mickelson insider-info case echoes 2016 SEC probe, RIPs: Bob Trumpy — Bengals TE/longtime NBC broadcaster (80), Carol Davis — Raiders co-owner, widow of Al Davis (93), Yoervis Medina — former Mariners/Cubs pitcher (37), Nick Mangold — former Jets center (41), Ace Frehley — original KISS guitarist, Dwayne Roberts — inventor of the frozen burrito (88), HEADLINEs: Breathing through our butts proven safe — Mitch Levy's been talking out his ass for years, GQ says "Nut Maxers" aim for maximum output — I was hoping it was a candy bar, MSN reports boob jobs are shrinking — so no more inflation, Detroit cop appears pantless in court — didn't stand up well, Customers sue On shoes for squeaks — my mom should've sued my dad first.

Mike Macdonald had far more confidence in his team than anyone else entering the 2025 NFL season, and now that confidence is paying off and reigning true, so Brock and Salk talk through it. They then dissect Game 7 of the World Series in which was one of the best baseball games we've ever watched, with the Seahawks emerging victorious to win back-to-back World Series. In Blue 88, topics include what people reached out to Brock about regarding the Seahawks, a major pivot the Seahawks made that hasn't gotten as much buzz and why are the Huskies finally ranked.

Salk likes that this team is different than the LOB era team. They have their own identity and style. Then, we discuss Greg Olsen's post about the Seahawks not being a good rushing team and instead looking like a heavy personnel passing team. Plus, we break down the Dodgers World Series win, the Seahawks dominant night in D.C., and the Kraken taking on the Blackhawks tonight.    *The Mike Macdonald interview can be found on the Mike Macdonald Show podcast page

The Seattle Seahawks cruised to a 38-14 victory over the Washington Commanders in front of a national audience on Sunday night. The gruesome injury late in the game to Jayden Daniels soured the win and we hope Ernest Jones and Josh Jobe come out of the game ok for our Seahawks. Sam Darnold was on point for Seattle and Jaxon Smith-Njigba continued to dominate, supported by a well-balanced offense orchestrated by Klint Kubiak. The defense stifled Washington's offense and controlled the game from start to finish. Mike Macdonald made the right call on defense with Devon Witherspoon and Josh Jobe getting the start and Nick Emmanwori demonstrating why he should never be on the bench. Without Cooper Kupp on the field, Tory Horton hauled in a couple touchdowns to make his case for future WR2 on the team and Cody White jumped up from the practice squad to add a long touchdown of his own.

It's a deep dive! :30- We are back with more MMQB- and it's time to focus on the Seahawks defense who showed out last night and are getting a bit overlooked. :45- We wrap up the first hour of MMQB with Hugh and focus on Jayden Daniels injury. It has sparked a debate on whether or not he should have been in the game and Hugh is here to settle it. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Join us as we gear up for the Seahawks Sunday Night Football matchup against the Washington Commanders! How will the loss of Julian Love to injured reserve impact on the Seahawks defense and how will Mike Macdonald manage the return of Devon Witherspoon? With the Commanders recent struggles, Washington will be desperate for a win against a Seahawks team that has dominated on the road. The Commanders offense gets Jayden Daniels back, but they may not have the downfield offense to be able to attack the Seahawks defense. With the trade deadline approaching, could that impact how Seattle handles the playtime for Tariq Woolen on Sunday? Cooper Kupp, if he plays, may be limited against the Commanders, but that could prove beneficial in going heavy with tight-end heavy formations and Robbie Ouzts returning.
