RUNDOWN   A cryptic Hotshot tweet about cheering for arrests sets the tone before the guys revel in the Mariners' wild seven-game sweep and the Seahawks' statement win in Pittsburgh. The bullpen's near-perfect ERA has playoff dreams buzzing, George Kirby snaps back in style, and Sam Darnold, Ken Walker, and Riq Woolen all shine. Mitch, Brady, and Joe revel in a historic seven-game home sweep that has the Mariners suddenly in control of the AL West. The bullpen's 30+ innings with only one earned run anchors the conversation, alongside George Kirby's 14-strikeout rebound, Julio's resurgence at the plate, and Cal Raleigh's record-setting power. With Kansas City and Houston on deck, the crew debates playoff odds, MVP chatter, and whether Josh Naylor might be the perfect midseason fit in Seattle. Fresh off a 31–17 win in Pittsburgh, the crew digs into a Seahawks performance that mixed chaos with control. Riq Woolen redeemed himself with a hustle play that saved a touchdown. Sam Darnold shook off mistakes to make clutch throws, Kenneth Walker topped 100 yards with a highlight-reel touchdown, and the ball finally spread to Cooper Kupp, JSN, Horton, and the tight ends. Rick Neuheisel joins to unpack a loaded college football weekend — from Brian Kelly scolding reporters after LSU's win, to Georgia's Gunner Stockton and Notre Dame–Texas A&M's wild finish, to Arch Manning getting booed in Austin. He shares stories of media jousts from his UCLA days, weighs in on John Mateer's Heisman chances at Oklahoma, and even recalls the “Apple Cup plunge” tradition from his perfect 4–0 run against WSU. Neuheisel closes with his weekly pick, riding Nebraska as a home underdog against Michigan while eyeing the upcoming Apple Cup showdown. Bud Withers joins to discuss his new book, the first ever written on the history of the Apple Cup, just in time for another chapter in the storied rivalry. He reflects on why the UW–WSU matchup is uniquely distinctive, how Don James viewed it as “everything to lose, nothing to gain,” and why Cougar upsets often define the most memorable games.   GUESTS   Brady Farkas | Host, Refuse to Lose Podcast (Mariners on SI) Joe Doyle | MLB Draft & Mariners Analyst, Over-Slot Substack Brady Henderson | Seahawks Insider, ESPN Jacson Bevens | Writer, Cigar Thoughts Rick Neuheisel | CBS College Football Analyst, Former Head Coach & Rose Bowl Champion Bud Withers | Veteran Pacific Northwest sportswriter & author of Too Good to Be Through   TABLE OF CONTENTS   0:00 | Arrest Videos, Mariners Revival and Seahawks win! 21:23 | Stockton, Pete Carrol and Wicked Game 25:15 | BEAT THE BOYS, Presented by Fireside Home Solutions.

Munaf Manji and Mackenzie Rivers talk NFL betting for Week 2. The guys also discuss two MNF games. SOVAM Weekend Rewind and MNF PreviewOpening (0:15 – 1:02) Munaf Manji welcomed listeners to the Week 2 recap and double-MNF preview, joined by Mackenzie Rivers. He promised instant reactions, contest updates, and best bets. Munaf contrasted Week 1's fireworks with Week 2's defense-heavy slate: “It took about 57 minutes for us to see the first touchdown of the game from Mr. 1, Tyler Algier.” The Falcons beat the Vikings 22–6. Team stats: Falcons 326 yards vs Vikings 198; time of possession 36:32 to 23:28; turnovers 4–1 against Minnesota. Despite five red-zone trips, Atlanta settled mostly for field goals. Bijan Robinson shined, but rookie QB J.J. McCarthy faltered with sacks and giveaways. Mackenzie noted his new fatherhood could explain the struggles, but warned: “You do have to prove positively that you are an improvement over Sam Darnold.” In SERCA Survivor, most entries leaned on the Cardinals (5,169) and Ravens (4,420). Steelers and Vikings picks led to hundreds of eliminations. In Circa Millions, top sides (Cowboys, Jets, Broncos) all failed, with only the Eagles cashing. Mackenzie marveled at long field goals: “People kick 64-yarders in overtime… wow.” Mackenzie's top risers: Packers – line moved from -7 to -9, driven by defense and Micah Parsons. Bills – from -10.5 to -13 after dominating the Jets. Colts – Daniel Jones looked sharp, Taylor balanced the attack. Munaf agreed, adding the Lions, who dropped 52 on the Bears, proving Ben Johnson's departure didn't stall the offense. Mackenzie listed three fallers: Jets – QB Justin Fields left concussed; 3-of-11 for 25 yards. Bears – crushed despite Caleb Williams' 207 yards, 2 TDs, 1 INT. Dolphins – porous defense, Tua's late INT sealed loss to Patriots. Munaf added Bengals, with Joe Burrow sidelined by a toe injury. Mackenzie said: “A 4.5-point move from Joe Burrow to Jake Browning… probably the end of the Zach Taylor era if it's three months.” Munaf admitted a blunder starting Justin Fields, who netted 3.8 points, but his roster (Taylor, Neighbors, Adams) carried him. Mackenzie joked his own fantasy team was “trash.” Texans -2.5, total 42.5. Injuries: Bucs missing Wirfs and Godwin, Texans without Mixon. Munaf stressed the Texans are 8-3 to the under as home favorites under DeMeco Ryans. Both leaned Tampa and under 42.5. Raiders +3.5, total 46.5. Mackenzie liked the Chargers' road edge and prep advantage. Munaf emphasized Justin Herbert's dominance in Vegas, topping 314 passing yards in all four appearances. His best bet: Herbert over 253.5 yards. Both suggested Chargers could cover alternate spreads like -13.5. Mackenzie: Clippers -8 vs Jazz in their NBA opener, expecting focus after off-court drama. Munaf: Justin Herbert over 253.5 yards vs Raiders. The hosts closed by thanking listeners, promoting Pregame.com's Touchdown25 code, and inviting feedback, including prop bet requests.

Editor's note: We apologize for audio syncing issues with this episode. On the Monday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, Post-Gazette Steelers insiders Ray Fittipaldo and Christopher Carter sort through the NFL Week 2 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. What's behind the inconsistency coach Mike Tomlin's defense has shown through two games? Particularly against Sam Darnold, Kenneth Walker III and Jaxson Smith-Njigba on Sunday? Why are key players like Jalen Ramsey, Patrick Queen, Payton Wilson and others simply losing one-on-one matchups? And will the woes require a change in scheme from DC Teryl Austin if they continue? Our duo tackles those questions, plus a frustrating day for the offense. How much is QB Aaron Rodgers to blame of the lack and scoring? And how much criticism do Broderick Jones, Troy Fautanu, Zach Frazier and the offensive line deserve for failing to give Rodgers the time to distribute the ball to targets including DK Metcalf, Calvin Austin III, Pat Freiermuth, Jonnu Smith and Roman Wilson? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.

Mike Tomlin said that the Steelers defense is capable of “much better than that”. The Steelers let Brian Flores walk, which seems to be a mistake. Sam Darnold is historically very bad under pressure, and the Steelers refused to send any. Nick Herbig actually played one more snap than TJ Watt did. Patrick Queen didn't really answer questions postgame. The Steelers will likely play Carson Wentz in Ireland, as opposed to JJ McCarthy, due to McCarthy's injury. Callers voice their opinions on yesterday's game. PIT-SEA Game Balls. Game ball number 3 goes to Byron Murphy II for his constant pressure and his TFL. Game ball number 2 goes to Jaxon Smith-Njigba, who had over 100 yards. Game ball number 1 goes to Kenneth Walker, who averaged over 8 yards per carry.

Richard Sherman reacts to Week 2 of the 2025 NFL season, including Mac Jones lifting the San Francisco 49ers over the New Orleans Saints, Sam Darnold overcoming two first half interceptions to lead the Seattle Seahawks over Aaron Rodgers and the Pittsburgh Steelers, Jalen Hurts’ Philadelphia Eagles eking out an ugly win over Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, and the Kansas City Chiefs in their Super Bowl rematch, Russell Wilson coming up just short in the New York Giants’ overtime loss to Dak Prescott and the Dallas Cowboys, Micah Parsons and the stingy Green Bay Packers defense locking up Jayden Daniels’ Washington Commanders, and Jared Goff throwing five touchdown passes as the Detroit Lions bounced back with a 52-point performance against Caleb Williams and the Chicago Bears. 2:30 - 49ers-Saints 8:30 - Seahawks-Steelers 19:00 - Bears-Lions 31:00 - Commanders-Packers 34:30 - Giants-Cowboys 40:30 - Eagles-Chiefs 48:30 - Broncos-Colts [Timestamps may vary due to advertisements.] All lines provided by hardrock.betSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Joe Burrow is sidelined again — this time with turf toe that could keep him out for three months.

McCarthy’s tough start with the Minnesota Vikings in Week 2 of the NFL season, the pressure of replacing Sam Darnold, and how it could affect Justin Jefferson and the entire franchise moving forward. 00:00 – Intro 00:05 – Joe Burrow’s turf toe injury and Situation explained 05:06 – Sherman clarifies his take on J.J.
