Brock and Salk

Brock and Salk go around the NFL and check in on another QB controversy in Cleveland, the Seahawks injury report is lengthy ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Raiders in Need to Know, and data scientist Steven Patton joins the show to explain some of his work evaluating NFL offensive coordinators, and what it says about Brian Fleury.

Brock and Salk are serenaded on the subject of Seahawks quarterback Drew Lock in here's the thing, explain a quiet start to the MLB offseason despite the looming lockout in Need to Know, and chat with CBS broadcaster Ian Eagle, who will be on the call for the Seahawks game on Sunday, and shares why Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald jumps off the page in production meetings.

Brock and Salk try to unpack the value an offensive coordinator brings to a team, and one of the emerging trends plaguing the Seahawks in 2026, explosive plays, the Mariners are unlikely to bid for the service of star relief pitcher Adrian Morejon in Need to Know, and they debate whether the Mariners should priortize a premium bat or a talented fielder.

Salk finds a chart posted on social media so fascinating, he asked the creator to come on the show, what it tells us about Seahawks first-year offensive coordinator Brian Fleury, more names are linked to the Mariners as they search for a replacement to Randy Arozarena, and ESPN's Peter Schrager weighs in on the Seahawks quarterback "controversy".

Brock and Salk revisit an important storyline for the Seahawks season that is not getting enough attention this year, the Houston Astros pick a new manager in Need to Know, Brock talks about seeing the Huskies in person last week in Washington Wednesdays, and Stacy Rost fills in as a guest judge for Trash Takes.
