Monday’s Daily Puck Drop with Jason “Puck” Puckett featured appearances from Jim Moore and the Ground Puck Seahawks Podcast with Tim Booth, Seattle Times and Curtis Crabtree, FOX 13. Puck and Jim break right into the news that John Mateer is leaving Washington State and heading into the portal.  Both express massive disappointment that Mateer is leaving but understand that nature of the business especially with the financial figures being thrown out. Will other plays now follow and could that mean the Cougars may not have enough bodies for the Holiday Bowl against Syracuse?  Should they even play the game anymore?  Puck is not angered by Mateer, he’s angry with the system of college football. The Seahawks game was a letdown.  Seattle was dominated in every aspect of the game and showed why they are not in the class of the Packers and other Super Bowl contending NFC teams.  We got our first look at Sam Howell and it wasn’t good. Why did Jim bet with Puck that Howell would start this season???The Ground Puck Seahawks Podcast with Tim Booth, Seattle Times, Curtis Crabtree, FOX 13 and Jason “Puck” Puckett opens by saying the score could have been much worse and that Seattle really was delivered a wake up call where they sit in the NFC. The defense has been outstanding but what happened against Green Bay?  The Packers were always one step ahead of the Seahawks defense.  The offense for Seattle could never get going and once again were dominated on the line of scrimmage.   The injury to Geno Smith will be something to monitor for the week and if he can’t go then they will turn to Sam Howell, who did not look good in his playing time against the Packers. The boys go through the tie breaking scenarios for the Seahawks as they wind down their season with three pivotal games looming against the Vikings, Bears and Rams. Once again, Geno Smith’s performance in the red zone was awful.  it begs the question if you are Seattle if you should engage in significant money for him?  But, the Seahawks and Geno are in a similar spot because neither really has any leverage moving forward. Finally, Puck wraps up the show with, “Hey, What the Puck?!” John Mateer leaving Pullman is a loss for the Cougars, but also a loss for college football.
